QuakeSim - Simulation and Analysis Tool for Studying the Physics of Earthquakes
Entry ID: NASA_JPL_quakesim
Click to see members of this collection.
Abstract: In order to develop a solid Earth science framework for understanding and studying active tectonic and earthquake processes, we are developing simulation and analysis tools to study the physics of earthquakes using state-of-the-art modeling, data manipulation, and pattern recognition technologies. We are developing clearly defined accessible data formats and code protocols as inputs to the ... simulations. These codes must be adapted to high-performance computers because the solid Earth system is extremely complex and nonlinear, resulting in computationally intensive problems with millions of unknowns. Without these tools it will be impossible to construct the more complex models and simulations necessary to develop hazard assessment systems critical for reducing future losses from major earthquakes.
Aside from studying tectonic and earthquake processes, the QuakeSim team will also be studying volcanic eruptions, landslides, and climate change. By studying these natural hazards and changes, we plan to expand our knowledge and abilities not only with earthquakes but other physical changes to the Earth and its environment.
- Develop real-time, large-scale, data assimilation grid implementation for the study of earthquakes.
- Assimilate distributed data sources and complex models into a parallel high-performance earthquake simulation and forecasting system.
- Simplify data discovery, access, and usage from the scientific user point of view.
- Provide capabilities for efficient data mining.
- Establish the necessary infrastructure and develop optimal techniques to understand the relationship between the observable space-time patterns of earthquakes and the underlying, nonlinear stress-strain dynamics that are inaccessible or unobservable in nature.
- Fully three-dimensional finite element code (FEM) with adaptive mesh generator capable of running on workstations and supercomputers for carrying out earthquake simulations
- Inversion algorithms and assimilation codes for constraining the models and simulations with data
- Visualization codes for interpretation of data and models
- Pattern recognizers capable of running on workstations and supercomputers for analyzing data and simulations
- Improve forecasting and prediction of earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, and landslides
- Earthquake risk estimation
- Integrate real-time and archival sensor data with high-performance computing applications for data mining and assimilation to improve earthquake forecasts, ultimately leading to earthquake damage mitigation.
- Federate sensor data sources, focusing on InSAR, LIDAR, and GPS, for an improved modeling environment for forecasting earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, and landslides as well as understand the effects of climate change on Earth and its environment.
- Extend QuakeSim to interact with high-end computing resources at Ames Research Center and JPL.

Comments about this product:
This movie is excellent. My 10 year old and 7 year old watched it twice! They were facinated and excited by the information give. My youngest said "did you know gems can be found 100 feet below ground" as he headed out with a shovel. Although it may be considered for adults, it is very educational and engaging for age 7+. My 10 year old said the teacher should have showed this to go along with their study of the inner earth.

New Running Shoes
"I needed some new running shoes, and my twin sister actually has these. The first few runs I wasn't sure. My toes were hitting the top of the shoe. After about 5 wears, I can say I like these shoes now. They are very lightweight (not to mention cute)."

"The shoe is lightweight, yet provides plenty of cushioning, even in the toe. The back is slightly higher than recent shoes I've worn and has caused some irritation, but I also wear very short ankle socks, so maybe it's just me."

Along time ago in a meadow far away on a mountain on a hill over a pasture and down the road lived many ponies ... they had magical powers that enabled them to grow spaghetti out of their eyes and read minds and also they could make anyone fall in love just by smiling and licking their faces.... One day whiskers the pink pony decided she wanted to go for a swim and visit the fish who she loved very much because they would kiss her body and tickle her feet and that was in her top ten fave things to feel... so she went to the pond and dipped herself in ....while she was giggling with the fish she heard some one calling her name... she looked over her shoulder and spotted a beautiful glowing whispery feathery feather... whiskers slowly got out of the pond and went over to the feather ... the feather looked at her and caressed her cheek and said

Dry conditions have persisted in many of the areas ravaged by fires last year and bark beetles have invaded millions of acres in western forests, creating a tinderbox of dead wood.
Persistent drought and an infestation of tree-killing insects have left broad swaths of the USA vulnerable to unusually fierce wildfires for the second straight year just as the U.S. Forest Service is dealing with cuts in its fire-fighting budget.
Areas most at risk include Southern California, Arizona, New Mexico, the eastern Rockies and Florida, according to the federal government's most recent fire analysis.
More than 9.3 million acres of public and private land — an area larger than Maryland — burned in 2012, the third most-active wildfire season since 1960, according to the Forest Service. The agency spent $1.4 billion fighting them.
Mega-fires from Oregon to New Mexico made headlines from Father's Day to Halloween. Dry conditions have persisted in many of the fire-ravaged areas. Bark beetles also have invaded an estimated 46 million acres in western forests, creating an additional tinderbox of dead wood over an area bigger than Missouri.
"Our predictions for this incoming fire season are almost identical to where we were a year ago at this time," said Tom Tidwell, the chief of the U.S. Forest Service, whose agency manages 193 million acres.
Tidwell said that spending cuts imposed by Congress and the White House will force his agency to hire about 500 fewer firefighters than the 10,000-10,500 it normally employs. He said the Forest Service will "mitigate the impact" by pre-positioning firefighters in vulnerable areas and moving them around more rapidly when outbreaks occur.
Fires are burning hotter and faster than a decade ago, a condition Tidwell attributes to warmer, drier weather. That creates drier vegetation and better fuel for fires.
Last year was the warmest on record for the continental USA, according to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration.
"There is no question we are seeing these large fires become established more quickly, and at times they are almost explosive," he said.
A fire near Los Alamos, N.M., two years ago burned 40,000 acres in its first 12 hours, Tidwell said. A decade earlier, a fire in virtually the same location took seven days to reach 40,000 acres.
He also said that over the past decade, warmer weather has extended wildfire seasons by 60-70 days a year.
The fire season normally begins this month in the East and progresses westward.
Areas of the Southeast, particularly Florida, are also coming off a drier than normal winter, raising concerns there, too. A fire in St. Lucie County over the weekend forced the evacuation of about 2,500 people, said James Karels, director of the Florida Forest Service.
Karels said he is worried about federal cuts on top of already stretched state firefighting budgets.
The feds "are partners in this kind of fire business, especially (in fighting) the big wildfires," Karels said. "There isn't anyone that can do it alone, and when we see further cuts in the federal end, that is a partner that is not going to be able to come to the table as strong as in the past. And that is a concern."

$100 minimum on all Ivanko orders. No exceptions.
Ivanko Rubber Encased Olympic Barbell Plates – Stink-Free Olympic plates! You won't find any used crankcase oil or any other inferior components or impurities in these high quality virgin rubber Olympic plates by Ivanko Barbell.
Each and every Ivanko RUBO Olympic plate is manufactured with the highest quality materials with the most sound and proven manufacturing methods available. None of the Ivanko virgin rubber contains waste products or other "fillers"
common in low priced, low quality plates. These fillers as well as added sulfur curing agents give rubber a pungent, rotten egg smell that is impossible to use in small and confined areas like homes or workout studios. Customers
specifically seek out the Ivanko brand when sourcing rubber coated barbell plates so as to avoid these issues. Ivanko also takes special steps to create a permanent bond between rubber coating and iron core. One critical step
is simply allowing each plate to fully cool inside the mold before it is removed. To save time and money, many manufacturers will cut corners here by removing the plates from the mold much too quickly resulting in a poor bond and
a rubber coating that will begin peeling soon after the plates go into service. And one of the best side effects of making such a high quality rubber is the superior impact resistance it provides to weight room floors. The RUBO plate is not
to be mistaken as a bumper plate, but will offer sufficient protection for many years to come.

Biomass Electricity
Photo: Warren Gretz, NREL 00294
Biomass consists of organic residues from plants and animals that are obtained primarily from harvesting and processing of agricultural and forestry crops. These are used as fuels in direct combustion power plants. The biomass is burned, producing heat that is used to create steam to turn turbines to produce electricity. The steam can often be used for another process -- such as drying vegetables or using in a factory. This is called cogeneration.
Examples of some of the biomass residues that are utilized in direct combustion power plants are: forest slash, urban wood waste, lumber waste, agricultural wastes, etc. The components of biomass include cellulose, hemicelluloses, lignin, lipids, proteins, simple sugars, starches, water, hydrocarbons, ash and other compounds. The total estimated biomass resource potential of California is approximately 47 million tons.
Biomass energy is also the term used for the use of wood products to heat homes and businesses. More in-depth information can be found on these pages.

Long-Run Corporate Tax Avoidance
Scott Dyreng
Duke University
Michelle Hanlon
Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) - Sloan School of Management
Edward L. Maydew
University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill
Accounting Review, Vol. 83, No. 1, 2007
We develop and describe a new measure of long-run corporate tax avoidance that is based on the ability to pay a low amount of cash taxes per dollar of pre-tax earnings over long time periods. We label this measure the long-run cash effective tax rate. We use the long-run cash effective tax rate to examine 1) the extent to which some firms are able to avoid taxes over periods as long as ten years, and 2) how predictive one-year tax rates are for long-run tax avoidance. In our sample of 2,077 firms, we find there is considerable cross-sectional variation in tax avoidance. For example, approximately one-fourth of our sample firms are able to maintain long-run cash effective tax rates below 20 percent, compared to a sample mean tax rate of approximately 30 percent. We also find that annual cash effective tax rates are not very good predictors of long-run cash effective tax rates and thus, are not accurate proxies for long-run tax avoidance. While there is some evidence of persistence in annual cash effective tax rates, the persistence is asymmetric. Low annual cash effective tax rates are more persistent than are high annual cash effective tax rates. An initial examination of characteristics of firms successful at keeping their cash effective tax rates low over long periods shows that they are well spread across industries but with some clustering.

The Emery County search and rescue was involved in a rescue on Oct. 31 involving two women ages 28 and 30 who were kayaking down the San Rafael from Fullers Bottom to the Swinging Bridge. They left on Oct. 30 in the afternoon. They left a vehicle at the bridge and another at Fullers Bottom with plans on floating to the bridge.
The hour became late and darkness descended and the pair decided to wait things out on the river bank. When family members called and said the pair were overdue the next day, the Emery County Sheriff's Office sent Deputy Shaun Bell to the Swinging Bridge to see if the vehicle was still there.
Posse members were also called out to Fullers Bottom and the Wedge. A plane flown by Gust Kalatzes flew the area along with Deputy Bliss Mead as lookout. They spotted the two from the air not too far from the bridge.
Search and rescue was directed to their location where they found the women suffering from foot lacerations. They were taken by ambulance to Castleview Hospital for a medical checkup. The women had lost shoes and articles of clothing during their ordeal but otherwise appeared in good condition.
In another unrelated search on Oct. 31 the search and rescue team was called to the Ferron Reservoir area where a hunter had become stuck in the snow. He was apparently in the area scouting elk for the upcoming muzzleloader elk hunt and had become stuck in a snowbank. He called into the Sanpete County dispatch and they were unable to take the call and called the Emery County Sheriff's Office to rescue the man.
The man was brought safely off the mountain.

Jets Get Huge Road Win. Reach Eighth Place in the East
Nation World HQ
December 27 2011 10:12PM
If the Winnipeg Jets could ever play a perfect hockey game, they might have played it on Tuesday night in Denver.
The Jets beat the Colorado Avalanche 4-1 as Evander Kane scored his 16th and 17th goals of the season and Ondrej Pavelec made 32 saves to get the win.
But there was a lot more to it than that.
Good goaltending combined with smart neutral zone play, quality playmaking and shot selection will often get you a victory in the NHL. Tuesday night, however, the Jets added responsible play and good puck management in their own zone to that to-do list and suddenly the Jets might have played their best road game of the season. It was a nearly-perfect effort.
To their credit, the Jets buried last Friday night's 4-1 loss to Pittsburgh and played a smart, conservatiove road game.
They didn't do much early, but they didn't let the Avas do much, either. They scored the first goal and then kept the Avs from getting too many decent scoring chances against Pavelec. It was a gritty effort and it came despite coach Claude Noel's concern that the rarified air in the Mile High City might negatively affect his team.
"Didn't affect us at all," said Kane, who had 19 goals all of last season and now has 17 after 36 games this year. "We're all in pretty good shape. It wasn't a problem at all."
Despite being outshot 33-26, the Jets took full advantage of their chances. They held Colorado to a load of perimeter shots and made good on the few scoring chances they had on the Avs' Jean-Sebastien Giguere. All four lines contributed.
"I thought we were good," said head coach Claude Noel on his televised post-game scrum. "We had some good efforts and got some good play from a lot of players. Our defensemen made some really good plays and Pavelec was good. We played well."
With the win, the Jets improved to 17-14-5 on the season and with 39 points are now in eighth place in the East tied in points with seventh-place New Jersey and ninth-place Ottawa. They still trail the Devils, officially, because New Jersey has more wins (19-17).
"It means a lot to us to get across the (eighth-pace) line, "Noel said. "But our focus will be winning the next game at home (Thursday night against Los Angeles). We got there, now our job will be staying there. The comfort of being at home is important and the fans have been tremendous for us. We're playing with confidence from our goaltender out. We have to keep playing like this."
So why were the Jets so much better on Tuesday night than they were last Friday night? It had nothing to do with fatigue and everything to do with playing the game properly. They were solid in the neutral zone, didn't have too many dumb turnovers and stayed out of the penalty box. And they won it despite an injury that kept Dustin Byfuglien out of the lineup.
"I rolled through the four lines and they all defended well," Noel said. "The guys were fairly responsible. They did a pretty fair job in their own zone. What helped us was getting the first goal. I thought we managed the puck really well. We got pucks deep and got a lot of confidence with the first goal. The way Pavelec was playing that first goal might have been enough.
"I was pleased. Now we have to keep playing that way on Thursday night. It's important for us not to forgot how we won that game (Tuesday) night. Hard work, good efforts, responsible play. It was a good game."
You know what they say: "When the scorers score, the checkers check, the defensemen defend and the goalie stops shots, you should win the hockey game." That simple formula gave the Jets a road win on Tuesday and also a place among the NHL's playoff elite.
Now we'll see if the Jets can remain in that rarified air.

Mammoth Canadian Open volleyball championships underway in TorontoTORONTO – It's an incredible sight this week at the Direct Energy Centre.
The 32,000 square metre area has transformed into a mammoth volleyball venue. A total of 54 courts are thundering with the sounds of spiking, passing and serving along with the cheering, calling and clapping as the Canadian Open volleyball championships enters its second day of competition.
On opening day Thursday, 315 teams competed and the numbers will be the similar through to Tuesday. The action starts at 7:30 a.m. and roars non-stop until 9 p.m. in the evening.
''It's been a great competition so far and a great experience for the girls,'' said Brynn Kennedy head coach of the U16 Force from Surrey, B.C. ''It's a chance to compete against all the other provinces and see what the caliber of play is like.''
Kennedy was hoping her squad would have fared better Friday after a strong start on Thursday.
''We think we are pretty strong in B.C., and we played some good volleyball. But we saw the competition is really strong and it's been that way the whole way through.''
On Friday morning, the Prime Minister of Canada, the Right Honorable Stephen Harper was on hand to cheer on his son Ben.
At the Open, teams from across Canada are battling for national titles in various age groups ranging from 14 to 18 age groups as well as in senior level championships. Players range in age from 12 to 65. As well Canada's national sitting volleyball team is playing and training with the U.S., in an exhibition series.
''This is so fun,'' said 15-year-old Mikaela Kott, a player with the Force. ''There's so many teams and it is such a great experience. I'm a bit sad we lost today but it doesn't take away from the fun. It's really cool how many people play volleyball.''
Close to 10,000 players, officials and coaches are participating in the event. It is the largest volleyball championships ever in Canada. There are 250 volunteers as well helping with the matches and the various interactive activities outside the courts which make this event a true volleyball festival.
''Ultimately it's all about the experience for the kids,'' said Kennedy. ''Whether we win or lose, it's all about being together, being in a new place, meeting other Canadians passionate about our sport and celebrating volleyball.''

This is really excellent tea. I've been enjoying it, too, but in a small Yixing pot.
Excellent tea indeed! A little Yixing for Gaoshan is definitely on my list of tea priorities. I usually brew this tea in a gaiwan when home or at work. Variations in brewing techniques are nice though, since they seem to highlight different aspects in a tea.

Environmentally Friendly - Lawns reduce storm water run-off and control soil erosion. A lawn also assists the decomposition of pollutants and helps restore soil quality.
Generate Oxygen - The oxygen generated by turfgrass has a major impact on making our environment habitable. A 50-foot by 50-foot lawn produces enough oxygen for a family of four to breathe for one year.
Natures Filter - Lawns trap and filter dust and smoke particles from the air and act as a filter for the air we breathe. This is especially important in urban areas where dust generated by cars and trucks can be trapped and washed down into the soil. Turfgrass also increases water infiltration and cleans the water as it passes through the grass so that underground water supplies are replenished for our use.
Erosion and Runoff Control - Turf's high shoot density and root mass stabilize surface soil, preventing erosion. Healthy turf has the ability to absorb and conserve water, and filter water and prevent run-off. This is why turf is often used on slopes, roadsides, and around parking lots.
It's Cool - Lawns serve as a natural air conditioner. On a hot summer day, a lawns surface can be at least 30 degrees cooler than that of asphalt.
Safety Net - Well-maintained turf areas serve as excellent sports surfaces. Turf helps to absorb physical impact and reduce injuries. As a playing surface, it is safer than artificial grass or bare soil.
Noise Reducer - Grassy areas can decrease noise by eight to ten decibels. This is especially important in an urban location.

Nice, sleek, no laces..
"I loved the shoes because they were nice, and sleek--had a good feminine look to it for a sneaker--but it was super shiny! I thought it'd be a dark ashy grey so it'd shine a bit but not too much but it was so shiny!The rubber on the bottom was pretty tough too (as in hard)--didn't seem like it would break in too quickly--but the shoe itself seemed fine."

"i like to review shoes based on looks and comfort, just 2 components1. looks - this is a very classy shoe, definitely works well with a nice set of dress pants2. comfort - while this is an aesthetically pleasing shoe, the comfort level is a different story. my one caveat regarding my review is that i have weird feet and have been having issues finding the right pair. with this pair, at first wear i thought they fit well, however when i walked around in them the tongue of the shoe was driving into my foreleg which made the experience slightly less comfortable. if this is not an issue for you then the shoe will probably work well with any classy look youre looking for."

Upcoming & Outgoing
Rooting Symposium
I'm only posting the press release because they say it better than I ever could. If I wasn't going to be out of town my choice would definitely be the Rooting Symposium Trio Dinner Party on Sunday, October 13th featuring chefs Eric May and Mike Bancroft, Artist Edra Soto (what's the difference between chef and artist anymore?!).
Rooting: Regional Networks, Global Concerns highlights food through emerging programs and projects by artists, cultural workers, radical chefs, rural and urban farmers, and small businesses. The program spotlights creative responses to the extreme environmental, social and economic changes facing local and global communities with a focus on the Chicago region and New Delhi, India. The event pulls together local, regional, and international presenters to share projects and best practices addressing soil health, water conservation, advocacy, food production and distribution, and building sustainable communities. Organized by the Rhizome Alliance.
Events will take place October 5th through October 13th and include the Rooting Exhibition closing reception, a film screening, bus and walking tours to local farms and art centers, a foraging workshop, dinners with Chicago area chefs and artists, and a symposium with keynote addresses, panel discussions, and a farmer's market. Tickets and information available at rootingchicago.org.
- Finally! A painting show to be super excited about! Jonas Wood's exhibition at Shane Campbell Gallery opens October 12th from 6-8pm. 673 North Milwaukee Avenue.
Gotta get to the Renaissance Society for the conversation between new Executive Director and Chief Curator Solveig Øvstebø and Associate Curator and Director of Education Hamza Walker. This talk is going to be like that movie Waking Life but without the rotoscoping and more interesting.
Saturday, October 26, at 3 p.m. The event is free and open to the public.
- Last but certainly not least, Osvaldo Romberg's Translocations: Mies and Melnikov at the Farnsworth House in Plano Illinois will close on October 18th. This exhibition involves three things I love: a road trip out to Plano, a gorgeous house museum in the fall and, of course, a model of Melnikov's eccentric home in Moscow. But really, the project is great, the weather is perfect and I know you're looking for an excuse to get out of the city. Bonus points: The catalogue for the exhibition features writing by everyone's favorite long-lost Chicago critic and educator with a specialization in Argentinean artists, Dan Quiles.

Japan Plans Curvaceous Maglev Train to Connect Osaka and Tokyo by 2045
Jason Mick
November 29, 2012 5:23 PM
Recipient E-mail
Sender E-mail
(Source: Phys.org)
Train will speed along at 311 mph, will carry 900+ passengers
Maglev trains represent a perplexing puzzle to civil engineers. While the price of entry
can be much higher
than traditional rail based trains, maglevs -- trains held aloft by powerful electro magnets -- experience no friction, meaning they cost far less to maintain.
But the high construction costs have meant that only two commercial maglevs are currently in existence. Now the home nation of one of those two high-tech rail systems -- Japan -- is dreaming of a far more ambitious maglev line connecting Tokyo and Osaka with trains travelling safely at 311 mph.
Japan's current maglev system is only 8.9 kilometers (5.9 miles) long, and is located in Aichi, near the city of Nagoya. Dubbed "Linimo", the line operates at a "lowly" cruising speed of 62 mph. The line has struggled with losses in recent years and cost over $100M USD per km to construct.
But those struggles have not swayed Central Japan Railway Comp. (JR Tokai) (
), which
plans to deploy
the sleek Series L0 prototype in 2027. The front car will stretch ninety-two feet, with over half of that length devoted to an aerodynamic nose cone. It will haul 14 carriages, each with 68 passengers in rows of four seats, with the exception of the last carriage, which seats only 24 (for a total of 908 passengers).
The first engineering mockups of the train were unveilled earlier this month.
The Series L0 Train [Image Source: Phys.org]
The train is planned to initially travel between the Shinagawa Station in central Tokyo to Nagoya, cities separated by roughly 218 miles on Japan's eastern coast. Today the trip would take four hours by car or 90 minutes on the
fastest rail-based bullet trains
, but travelling at a blistering 311 mph, the next-generation maglev rail is expect to deliver passengers there in just 40 minutes.
JR Tokia plans to eventually extend the system to connect to Osaka by 2045. Lead developer Yasukazu Endo comments, "Through the test runs, we will make final checks to ensure that commercial services are comfortable."
Long a leader in high-speed rail, Japan has recently seen
fierce competition
from its rival, China. China currently owns the only other active commercial maglev system in the world, a line in Shanghai. China is moving aggressively forward with its
high speed rail expansion plans
, despite the embarassing setback of having to
scale back its line speeds
record paces
due to allegations of contractor corruption leading to shoddy construction.
The U.S. is currently
pondering a maglev system of its own
, but such plans remain in their early infancy, with few large commercial backers.
"There is a single light of science, and to brighten it anywhere is to brighten it everywhere." -- Isaac Asimov

The Emery High cross country teams, under the direction of Darrell Gardner and Christy Guymon, have both qualified for the state meet with good finishes at region in Mt Pleasant.
The boy's team finished fourth, to take the final spot just ahead of Carbon High. Juan Diego Catholic High School, a fairly new school but one that is already established with great runners, finished first in the region meet followed by host North Sanpete. In third place was Delta with 78 points, followed by Emery with 87 points and Carbon with 88 points.
Jex Jensen finished first for Emery and third overall in the competition. Jex was also selected All-Region and with a 4.0 GPA, was selected Academic All-State.
Finishing second for Emery was Eric Waddoups. Eric ran the best race of his life according to his coach. He, during the season, usually had been around the sixth position in finishing but on this day he really stepped it up with a great time.
McKay Allred, a sophomore from Lawrence, finished third for Emery followed by Blake Jensen and Levi Swasey. Other competitors for Emery were Nick Cox, Kyle Holmes and Mike Justice.
Levi, a runner who usually finished around second place for the Spartans, lost a shoe at the beginning of the race and completed the competition that way. His fifth place finish was just enough to hold off Carbon for the final spot to qualify. His foot was bloody after completing the 5K course. With Levi shod, Emery probably would have finished third and maybe challenged for second place.
The Lady Spartans finished third with 68 points, right behind Juan Diego with 61 points and North Sanpete with 45 points. Delta was fourth and Carbon was fifth. Running her first race of the season and leading the Spartans was Camille Fehlberg, a junior from Huntington. Camille, a starter on the volleyball team and an avid track athlete, finished fourth overall in her debut. Finishing next for Emery was Rebecca Bott followed by Chanie Benson. Ashley Schade, a Canyon View ninth grader, finished fourth followed closely by Brandie Jeffs. Also competing were Leslie Urie and Rebecca Doria. The state meet will be held at SugarHouse Park on Wednesday.
