I heard about the Puente Hills Fault in the SCEC blog and its supposed to make a 7.3 quake in the future?
If this is true that Puente hills fault is supposed to make a 7.3 Landers Size quake from the San Gabriel Valley to Downtown LA. How come this isn't well known in the US Mainstream Media like Hayward, New Madrid, San Andreas, Denali, Alaska Subduction, Denali, and the Cascadia are. Besides that LA and the rest of CA have so many Earthquake faults to investigate with.
Because it's a thrust fault (a blind thrust fault, actually) that relies on compressional forces to function. This area of the world is a large transform boundary where the Pacific plate is grinding north relative to the North American plate. There just aren't many compressional forces to build. In this case, such a fault would have a sequence of thousands of years between rupture.
Further, no one can predict earthquake rupture of any kind. Nowhere, no kind, not a tiny bit. Not even the Southern California Earthquake Center. Or the USGS. Nobody. We have no measuring equipment to nail down anywhere that strain is being built, and further, how much the rock can handle before a rupture.
The Puente Hills Fault has only had 4 major ruptures in the last 11,000 years!!
We here in Southern California have more geologic features than we know what to do with. The 1994 Northridge quake happened on another fault that we didn't even know existed. It's easy to find the big faults, or the big subduction zones, or the huge volcanoes -- but locating hundreds of potentially dangerous faults of different kinds, nobody should bash anyone else for not having a perfect map. When I was growing up, there was a large earthquake along the Rose Canyon fault, and everyone thought it was a dead fault. We don't know enough, and this SCEC paper doesn't know *anything more.*
Beside, PHF is right under LA. What do you want people to do? Pick up and move? You can only prepare as much as you can reasonably prepare.
I bought one of those mini greenhouses where you have the little peat disks that expand, you plant the seeds, put the top on, and it steams up and sprouts the plant. My cosmos and Red Sunflower Have grow so tall they will no longer fit into the greenhouse. Should I seperate all the seedlings? Is it alright to put them in a deep flower box or should it be shallow?
Also how tall should sweet William be before you take it out?
My plants will be going outside into a garden. I have cosmos, lilys, red hot poker, poppies, red sunflowers, foxglove, sweet william, babys breath, bleeding heart, ect. Most of these are in the mini greenhouse. I am in Kentucky and latley it had been warm for days then turn cold, so I don't know when the last frost is going to be.
What do you mean by two sets of leave. Like four leaves total on all stems? Each stem right now has two leaves.
prop up the lid to get some air circulation. keep out of drafts or else you could have some damping off (stems will rot if there is too much humidity x sudden cool air. the next day, take the lid completely off. this will prevent sudden change of temperature) when you see tiny white root hairs poking through the peat pellet, it is time to plant each seedling individually into individual pots. plant them right up to the bottom leaves. (this is a very important part of transplanting seedlings. often seedlings get spindley and will lay over and die. so plant them deep as carefully as you can. now let them grow on in a sunny window for a few days. water daily with 1/2 strength fertilizer (ulness your potting mix already has fertilizer in it) when you put them out doors for the first time, make sure you only leave them outside for a couple of hours each day untel they get used to being outside. the breeze will strengthen their little stems, and the full sun will make them grow quicker. after a about a week, you can leave them outside, as long as there is no frost at night, and you have them in a sheltered location. deep or shallow box does not matter
The Basis of Concentration/meditation and Its Benefits
Mother earth is known to be fertile and a womb of jewels. We all know that skies give us life-giving water in the form of rains. There is no limit to the vault of valuable objects in the ocean. Yet human beings have infinitely more wealth than all this put together. If the veils of our inner character are uncovered, we will visualize demigods and incarnations of God in this small body made of flesh and blood. Only on the basis of enterprise and hard work can one earn wealth.
Every unit of our body is amazing. We will be amazed to see great mysteries if we dive deeper within it. Amongst all bodily organs the brain predominates. When one sees its conscious, unconscious and higher conscious activities one will realize how great is a living being that directs its movements. Everyone is aware of how one earns money, fame, comforts via education, art skills and other profession. As a result every individual tries to augment his own intellectual skills and that of his family members. The bodies of all individuals are strikingly similar. The mind is very special. He who evolves his mind attains lot of success in life. Those who fail to do so tend to live a life of poverty and hardships. Man’s downfall or upliftment is mainly dependent on his intellectual state.
This so far has been related to the conscious mind. The inner movement of bodily organs is dependent on the subconscious mind. Good or bad habits are gathered in this area. Depending on our hopes and aspirations, the motor of our life moves in either a good or bad direction. It is the subconscious mind that decides the nature of our body, its attraction, its strength and skill. It is unknown powers that decide our destiny. The creator of this mysterious unknown personality is the subconscious mind, which directs all movements of a living being with the help of the intellect. Brain research scientists say that a very small area of the mysteries of the mind has been discovered. In comparison to the conscious mind (known), the subconscious mind (unknown) is more pervasive. Only a very small area of the brain is made use of by us. If only its latent state is awakened and made apt use of, one can see gigantic energy manifest in a tiny human body. If only we master our subconscious mind, we can become authors of our destiny.
Beyond the conscious and sub-conscious mind lies the superconscious state. It is inseparably bound to cosmic consciousness and a lot of give and take takes place between them. In comparison to the gross material world, the objects and energy flow of the subtle world are extremely more high statured. If a give and take relationship is set up with it, man can understand those divine mysteries, which are otherwise unknown. One can attain divine help, which is otherwise unavailable. With the help of gross powers we attain merely a few gross comforts that are transitory in nature. But with the help of subtle powers we attain those divine glories, which stay with us eternally. We have seen and heard of miraculous personalities who possess Extra Sensory Powers (ESP). Over here the special qualities of the superconscious mind manifest amazing skills and personalities.
It is very difficult to control the brain. No doubt our soul is powerful yet it lives a life of lack, poverty and hardships. The reason for this is that there is no self-control. Our activities akin to an unruly horse create agitation. If we fail to control our mind, how can we control external circumstances? We all want to change our circumstances but we never first control our psyche. Thus peace and joy run miles away from us. Great Seers/Saints of the world proclaim “Control your mind and you will gain victory over the world”. This is a fact because the moment you master your mind, it is easy to master external circumstances. Self-control means mastering thought waves and hence our very thinking. We must direct our thinking in an apt direction. This is achieved via Dhyan Yoga or meditation. A particular form or thought is introduced in the slate of our mind. It is pressurized into moving along a very small focused periphery. It is forced to stop its jumping nature like that of a monkey. No doubt this task is very difficult, yet a powerful resolve (Sankalpa) and unswerving perseverance helps us make this task easy and successful. We have never controlled our mind in a regular manner. Our character is nothing but a symbol of our mind. Our mind is used to following the path of lowliness and thus we imbibe bad thoughts. If only we had tried controlling the mind, we would have made it cultured and sacred. Only then can we be revered as a great personality. One could then avail of cooperation and respect from all directions. It is the demeaning mind that makes us execute lowly activities. Thus we live a sorry life of poverty and pain. On the other hand if one wishes to raise one’s lowly state, one will have to purify the mind by overcoming all taints within it. We will have to learn the art of self/mind control in order to purify our psyche. Dhyan Yoga or meditation is a powerful method that helps us attain mind control.
Meditation has many aims-
1. Controlling one’s monkey like mind that runs hither and tither.
2. Utilizing the power of self-control for apt tasks.
3. Augmenting our intellectual potential via concentration of the mind.
4. Focussing our mind at a single point via a powerful resolve (or Sankalpa) so as to create miraculous movements.
5. Discovering the mysterious layers of consciousness with our own will power.
6. Discarding all mental taints.
7. Augmenting sacred activities
8. Maintaining a serene mind even amidst chaotic conditions.
9. Experiencing bliss and peace under any circumstance.
10. Influencing those areas of contact with our thought electricity and augmenting elements that bring joy and peace in the world.
All these are worldly/intellectual applications of concentration/meditation. Even a so-called atheist can get benefits with a little bit of alertness and zeal. This method of meditation is of a general and medium stature. Ever so today’s highly intellectual human beings too will have to accept its great utility. Even a man of ordinary faith and sensitivity can benefit from meditation.
Ahead of this are high leveled benefits of meditation. For that a psyche full of intense faith in God and sacred sentiments is required. As a result one can merge one’s individual consciousness with cosmic consciousness or God. Attracting and imbibing one’s Guru (preceptor) and icon’s Divine Powers is possible only with the help of these high statured meditation methods. Only then can the individual soul (microcosm) merge into the cosmic soul (macrocosm i.e. God). No doubt man is an infinite storehouse of Divine Powers and that he can activate them with his own efforts. Hence one carries out primary and medium leveled meditation techniques. But it is only with the help of high leveled spiritual practices that one can contact great divine souls and thus merge our individual soul with cosmic consciousness or God. The goal of high leveled concentration/meditation is attainment of God, attainment of the goal of life and union of a living being with God.
Just as due to augmentation of bodily, intellectual and financial wealth the association of our contact area and means of public welfare augment, in the same way purification of individual psyche benefits both the individual and the entire world. Via the gross world we attain a lot of benefits due to hard work. The glories of the subtle world are that much more infinite. Meditation is a very powerful tool which helps one build that will-power which can imbibe/attract these innumerable Divine Powers. Wild beasts of the forest are very dangerous, but when they are trained, we can make apt use of them. In the same way once we master the art of controlling and making apt use of our mental potential, our character and personality will became brilliant. The greatest achievement of human life is to attain inner/soul progress without any external help. As a result one can attain innumerable Divine Powers. Thus it is most required that we master the art of meditation i.e. Dhyan Yoga.
With the help of meditation we can attain God and get the superconscious experience of God realization. Further one becomes healthy, strong and one can attain secret Divine Powers. All sacred scriptures maintain that only man can attain Divine Powers and glories. This is a fact. Our consciousness is omnipotent. Yet the reason why we fail to attain them is that we lack the art of mental control. He who masters this art of self-control gains victory over the entire cosmos.
Via concentration/meditation of the 5 sheaths the 5 Vital Forces of our consciousness and the 5 elements of our body became so radiant that one becomes a leading personality of the world. The 5 faced images of Mother Gayatri symbolize the energies of the 5 demigods of the inner world. If concentration/meditation is executed methodically, one masters the subtle cosmos and thus one establishes an important relationship of give and take with it.
In the meditation practice of Kundalini Shakti or Divine Serpent Power awakening the doors of manifestation and utilization of infinite Divine Powers albeit in seed form are opened up. Kundalini is our bodily energy. With its help one attracts infinite energies of the material world and this one becomes powerful both materially and spiritually. During the uncovering of the 5 sheaths (Panchakoshas) the mysterious layers of conscious energy are unfolded. Soul power is made more radiant via the 5 sheaths and the body via Kundalini Shakti. In order to achieve this 2 fold aim, concentration/meditation predominates over all other spiritual practices.
Ordinarily people think that meditation means placing an image in front of our mind and trying to continuously imagine that form. This is only partially true. No doubt one makes use of this method, yet only those with a powerful mental resolve see this image blurred at first and later very clearly on the slate of their minds. Not everyone has this power of resolve (Sankalpa) and it is possible only for people with special mental capabilities. Only those people who combine their sacred emotions, imagination power, faith in God and focused mind so as to mentally visualize God’s image very clearly, are capable enough of executing such a method of meditation.
As soon as an aspirant sits for meditation with eyes closed, he immediately thinks of things/people very dear to him. As though seated in a movie theatre they revel in this mental video of theirs. True meditation means trying to paint an image on our mental slate with the help of sacred sentiments. First one sees the image with eyes open and then one tries to visualize it mentally. This is called Trataka. Only then very slowly and steadily the mental image becomes clearer and thus our meditation keeps progressing.
Not every human brain is aptly designed to augment sacred sentiments or visualizing sacred images during meditation. Hence in order to focus our meditation, Drishya Yoga or Bindu Yoga is not recommended. The fundamental aim is to stop scattering of thought waves and instead focus them at a point. This can be achieved variedly with the help of 5 sense organs of knowledge. These are methods like Naad Yoga, via one’s ears, Gandha Yoga via our nose, Rasna Yoga via our tongue, Sparsha Yoga via our skin. Over here one sees forms with the help of subtle eyes.
For seekers of a preliminary stage, it is best that their minds follow one thought flow which is sacred. The concentration/meditation of scientists, artists, musicians etc. is of this variety wherein their minds revolve around one particular type of thought flow. Thus they perform extraordinary feats. The same tenet is used in concentration/meditation techniques with reference to 5 sheaths and Kundalini activation. Over here the thought flow is predominant. It is akin to seeing a movie on one particular topic. It is not necessary that one will get the holy vision (Darshan) of the particular God’s image that one meditates on. In certain special types of mental reflection, infinite images appear every moment and then they disappear. Yet this is not true meditation. The following nature of concentration/meditation too is of this type. If importance is given to the directions laid down and one thinks deeply about them, know for sure that the true goal of concentration/meditation is about to be achieved. It is beyond doubt that one will benefit immensely from their sacred results.

First of all, don't stress so much - that might be part of the problem.
Secondly, it's not going to happen overnight. Be patient, and be kind to yourself - it's gonna take time and effort.
Your diet sounds healthier than like... %99.9 of most kids your age, so don't freak about that either.
I'd start off by eating more in the morning - and less at night. When you get up relatively early, and eat a nice breakfast, you kick start your metabolism.
You need to exercise too. Being 14, you probly spend quite a bit of time sitting at a desk in school.
Make sure you stretch every day, keep those muscles limber and the blood flowing, and work out for at least 30 minutes each day. It's okay to start out with something simple and easy.
Just keep at it, and allow your body the time to adjust, and it will start happening. Probably before you even realize it!
Oh yeah - trade in the Cheez its for apples, raisins, honey roasted nuts, or something else with much less sodium.
(Keep in mind - you're not really overweight! I'm 5''2 and I weigh 170, so you are skinnier than me, and I'm not that large!)

Banana can be made into an effective and inexpensive facial mask.
Orange juice can be an effective remedy for pimples and acne. It can also be used for scar and blemish removal.
Strawberries can be used for conditioning and skin toning treatment. They are rich in salicylic acid, an ingredient found in many commercial acne creams.
Roasted and powdered pomegranate skin is good in treating boils, pimples, blackheads and whiteheads.
