Japan Quake Shortens Earth Day,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]
Japan’s devastating 8.9-magnitude earthquake last Friday was so powerful that experts say it slightly increased the Earth’s rotation speed,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], making the day a fraction of a second shorter.U.S. space agency scientist Richard Gross said the quake shifted the way the Earth's mass is distributed,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], which made the planet spin a little faster,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], cutting the 24-hour day by an estimated 1.8 microseconds. That is less than two millionths of one second.
The scenario is like that of a figure skater who draws her arms into her body during a spin,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], in order to turn faster on the ice.The shift in the earth's mass was also seen in surface changes to the Japanese coastline,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych],[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], caused by the sudden slippage of colliding plates of the earth's crust far below. Global positioning stations closest to the epicenter moved eastward by up to 4 meters during the quake.
Last year’s 8.8-magnitude earthquake in Chile,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and the 9.1-magnitude quake that struck Indonesia in 2004 each cut several microseconds from the length of the Earth’s day.It is normal for the length of a day on Earth to vary by about 1,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych],000 microseconds (one millisecond) throughout the year.The U.S. Geological Survey says the earthquake in Japan was the world’s fifth-largest since 1900.
European Leaders Expand Bailout Fund
Leaders of the 17 European nations which use the euro currency agreed Saturday to nearly double the size of the bailout fund used to help member states experiencing financial difficulties.Under the deal reached during a summit in Brussels, the capacity of the fund,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], formally called the European Financial Stability Facility, increases from about $350 billion to more than $600 billion.The leaders also agreed to lower the interest rate on a $110 billion bailout loan to Greece.Greece will also have 7.5 years instead of three to repay the loans from European Union and International Monetary Fund.
Combining sneaker classics has been a common habit of Jordan Brand in recent years,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and the CMFT series is another example of that work. For the Air Jordan CMFT Air Max 12, Jordan Brand combined the sole of the Nike Air Max 97 with a low-cut version of the Air Jordan 12 (XII). They are available in multiple colors,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and like the recently released Jordan CMFT Max 11,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], have been receiving a favorable response.
