As the temperature of the Earth began to rise 7,000 years ago, the Ice Age came to an end.

Earthquake

An earthquake is the result of a sudden release of energy in the Earth's crust that creates seismic waves. Earthquakes are recorded with a seismometer, also known as a seismograph.

Intensity of shaking is measured on the modified Mercalli scale.

At the Earth's surface, earthquakes manifest themselves by shaking and sometimes displacing the ground.

A milligram is identical to one-thousandth of a gram and it often used as weighing medicines. For big weights, it is helpful to know a metric ton is roughly 2,204 pounds. As the metric system is grounded on the power of 10, it is simple to subtract, add, divide, or multiply by 10 the amount of grams, kilograms, metric tons, and milligrams to define the weight conversion rate.

Weight Loss Diets

Water

One of the best ways to boost the success rate of weight loss diets is simply to drink more water. Drinking plenty of water under normal circumstances is a great way to maintain the health of your circulatory system and by extension, your entire body. However, when you are working to eliminate the toxins and dead cells from your body during a period when you are losing weight, extra water will make that process easier on your body. The kidneys won't have to work so hard and the liver and blood system will also function better, just by adding additional water to your intake each day.

Fiber

Adding additional fiber to an existing weight loss diets plan is a sure way to sneak out extra pounds lost. The body requires using extra calories in order to digest the foods you intake. When you add even a small amount of additional fiber, you are adding digestive time without adding significant amounts of calories. In addition, the fiber helps to encourage proper elimination for better intestinal and colon health. Sprinkle a little bran on your salad for a nutty taste or add it to your low fiber cereal in the morning to boost its staying power.

Exercise

The most effective weight loss diets include other components besides just food choices. Each time you add another dimension to the weight control plan, you increase your chances of successfully reaching your weight goal. Exercise is just such a helpful component. Anyone who has ever looked at a list of calories expended when doing various activities can see the benefits of exercise over a sedentary life style. Choose daily walks or add a stair climbing component to your trip to the office rather than using the elevator. These choices will help to manage weight over the long term.

H He said “Penang needs the bridge and the state government is worried that the Prime Minister’s departure may cause more delays. At the moment, it is already delayed for a year. With UEM enjoying close ties with political parties, it should be accepting the offer price. The price that UEM is asking for is not reasonable. If UEM can’t accept the offer, then an open tender should be called within the shortest time,”

Petrol station owners should accept the business risks

Datuk Shahrir Abdul Samad, the Minister of Domestic Trade and Consumer Affairs said that petrol station operators who suffered losses due to the reduction of fuel prices should accept them as business risks. He said “There is no business which has no risk. If the Government has decided to review the price of fuel each month, instead of fortnightly, the reduction will have been even more drastic. During the last reduction on Oct 15, the global price of fuel had actually plummeted. If the Government failed to reduce the price of fuel then, this would have meant we did not keep our promise on the fuel review mechanism and deliver its benefits to the people,”
