The Japanese Earthquake On March 11th, 2011 Moved the Earth On Its Axis. Today I Found Out that the earthquake in Japan on March, 11, moved the Earth on its axis by about 4 to 6 inches, which resulted in shortening of a day by around 1.8 microseconds. Massive earthquakes typically affect the Earth’s rotation with the impact of every individual earthquake depending on its magnitude, location, and the details of how the fault slipped.
The 8.9/9.0 magnitude earthquake which hit the Pacific Ocean near Northeastern Japan at around 2:46 pm on March, 11 caused extreme damage and unleashed a devastating tsunami a day after, when waves crashed 10 kilometers inland. This was the largest earthquake ever recorded in Japan and the subsequent tsunami traveled across the Pacific Ocean, reaching as far as the western coasts of Canada, the U.S. and Chile. In addition to this, during the first 24 hours, the initial earthquake triggered more than 160 aftershocks.

Helping SharePoint Help You A SharePoint system manages a huge amount of data.
Amazingly, in a SharePoint content database, all of the data, for every list and library item, in every site and subsite, is stored in a single table. Looking at hundreds of sites, each with dozens of lists and libraries, each potentially containing hundreds or thousands of items, and you end up with one massive table! Everybody has heard about the so-called "2000 item limit" in SharePoint. Remember that this isn't really a limit. SharePoint is quite capable of handling lists with tens, or even hundreds, of thousands of items. The issue is the "rendering" of those items, which starts becoming perceptibly slower if you have more than 2000 items . While the indexing discussed in this article can have a minor effect on this rendering, it really is more general, and can improve list performance across the board. Fortunately, you don't have to put up with this default behavior. That's all there is to it!
