A big chunk of the Sierra Nevada caught fracturing on video

Most geologic processes occur too slowly to see them play out for yourself. Many of the exceptions are dangerous enough that you might not want a front row seat or are rare enough that the odds of being there to witness them are disheartening. Sometimes, though, the Earth throws us a bone—or in this case, a gigantic slab of granite. One interesting way that rocks weather and crumble apart is called “exfoliation.”

Like the skin-scrubbing technique, this involves the outermost layers of exposed igneous or metamorphic bedrock sloughing off in a sheet. We’re not entirely sure just what drives the peeling of an outcrop’s skin like this, but the classic explanation is that it’s the result of bringing rocks that formed at great pressure up to the surface.

New generation GPS satellite starts tests in Colo. A $5.5 billion upgrade to the Global Positioning System moved a step closer to launch this week when a prototype arrived at a Lockheed Martin complex in Colorado to begin months of tests.

New generation GPS satellite starts tests in Colo.

It's the guinea pig for a new generation of GPS satellites, called Block III, that's expected to make military and civilian receivers more accurate, powerful and reliable. They're also part of an international effort to allow civilian receivers to use signals from U.S., European, Russian and perhaps other satellite navigation systems. Real-Time Ship Tracking on Google Maps. Scientists confirm Himalayan glacial melting. Glaciers in the Himalayas have shrunk by as much as a fifth in just 30 years, scientists have claimed in the first authoritative confirmation of the effects of climate change on the region.

Scientists confirm Himalayan glacial melting

The findings, published in three reports by the Kathmandu-based International Centre for Integrated Mountain Development (ICIMOD), show Nepal's glaciers have shrunk by 21 percent and Bhutan's by 22 percent over 30 years. The reports, launched on Sunday at the UN climate talks in Durban, South Africa, form the most comprehensive ever assessment of the extent of Himalayan ice melting. They follow a discredited announcement by scientists in 2007 that the region's glaciers would be gone by 2035.

A three-year Sweden-funded research project led by ICIMOD showed 10 glaciers surveyed in the region all are shrinking, with a marked acceleration in loss of ice between 2002 and 2005. Another study found a significant reduction in snow cover across the region in the last decade. Chili : Des photos pour dénoncer les violences contre une communauté mapuche. Guyane.

IP Address Geolocation Javascript API : JSON

While surfing I came to realize that there is a very good database available at iplocationtools.com. This website also provides XML API for this. This API can be accessed found at : IP Location API. However, for this particular project a needed some javascript API. My bad luck I couldn’t find one. Update The original source is also providing the same service in JSON.

IPlocationTools.com is now IP2Location.com, and they doesn’t provide APIs anymore. Des iles perdues dans l ocean indien. Agrandir le plan.

Des Images inédites du 11 septembre. Un procès pour avoir accès aux images 9 ans après les attentats voici des vidéos inédites obtenues par une ONG baptisée : « The International Center for 9/11 Studies« . Une organisation dont les responsables mettent en doute la version officielle et financent des recherches sur les attentats du 11 septembre 2001. Ils ont ainsi participé à la rédaction d’un document de 26 pages de questions sur le rapport d’enquête consacré à l’effondrement du Batiment 7 du World Trade Center.

Pour avoir accès aux archives audiovisuelles du 11/09 cette ONG a lancé une action en justice au nom de la loi sur la liberté d’information (Freedom of infirmation act). La procédure visait l’agence gouvernementale qui centralise les vidéos, les photos produites le 11 septembre : le NIST (National Institute of Standards and Technology) dont la mission a été d’enquêter sur l’effondrement des tours jumelles du World Trade Center et du bâtiment 7. 1* Les images et la bande son. 2* Des cris.

In an analysis of the past 1.2 million years, UC Santa Barbara geologist Lorraine Lisiecki discovered a pattern that connects the regular changes of Earth's orbital cycle to changes in Earth's climate. The finding is reported in the scientific journal Nature Geoscience. Lisiecki performed her analysis of climate by examining ocean sediment cores.

These cores come from 57 locations around the world. By analyzing sediments, scientists are able to chart Earth's climate for millions of years in the past. Lisiecki's contribution is the linking of the climate record to the history of Earth's orbit. Maporama.com - Cartes, Plans d'acces et itineraires partout dans le monde. Newsmap.
