What did you learn today?

 Hope your feeling better Stephanie...

I learned yesterday that if your going to be on the coast that should an tusami take place here's some things to be aware of...

1. count the seconds of the earthquake, if they are 20 seconds or longer you can about count on an tidal wave.

2. The first wave may or may not be large, but they can be incoming in increased height for some times minutes and hours between waves..don't think because there is an little 4 foot wave came in that there won't eventually be an 45 foot wave headed inland...go to safety and listen fo the all clear signal. 

3. It's now being claimed that for safety you need to be in elevation at least 100 feet in, or 2 miles inland....if you can't get to either, try to aim for an steel foundation, cememnt covered building, it might help...you'll need it at least with five floors high fo rmaxium protection and thsi should be your last option.

4. Keep the car trunk loaded with an few esstenials for any emergecy situation...because when it happens there' snto the "time" to loa dup the car..get out and get out fast. Reember that highways and by ways may be jammed, so learn the route straight up walking through areas on your own if you have to ditch your car.  

5. If you see the ocean going out exceptionally low..you have an wave building RUN as fast as you can off the beach in the oppostie direction. don't stop andwatch it all.

6. Beware of heavy logs, and rivers and creeks with bridges, as water travels up them and over them, it takes 2 inches of water to move an 1 ton beach log, don't get on them on,, it can roll over with you on it and crush you..stay clear.

7. Educate others what to do in such an sceanrio before you go to coastal towns that could be in danger..afterwards is to late.

I learned that I need to read up on multiple sclerosis.

My sister-in-law, who lives near-by, has this disease, and I feel I need to know more about it so that I can empathize with her, and help her in whatever way I can.

That's awful.

Today I learned a lot about all sorts of things technical. Same sorts of things as always, I learn new stuff everyday.

Well, they came out saying not to long ago that "MS" is an Vitamin D deficency in part..but you know how the medical industry changes it's mind constantly.

I read two newspaper reports that they found concerning graves in Britian recently, one was the body and decapitated head of some person, they are going to bury them together, as it was thought being this corpse is 700 years old that the head was separated as an way to not allow the "spirit" to rest as to being "whole", so it can't reincarnate....the other thing I read was that they found another corpse near an graveyard with an brick in it's teeth, indicating it had been excorsied at some time from evil. (Maybe the person that killed them?)

Tight as in close, a close family, not tight as in miserly or tight as in drunk.

I learned that one word can have many meanings, and that is why it is good to listen to the speaker  and better to know who they are and understand them.
