So I'm a week late to the party (discussion) about earthquakes and maps and so forth, but I like this one.

http://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/map/

I was talking to a friend of mine on Skype when he was in Japan about a year ago and there was no interruption to power or Internet service, but he was kind-of freaking out because his mouse was sitting there next to the laptop and the mouse was moving back and forth all on its own. Nobody in town really seemed to be concerned by it, but he was a bit on-edge because that was the first one he'd been through. We took bets on magnitude and about 20 minutes later, it showed up on the USGS map. It was a 4.7 that was 140km away from him. By "Price Is Right" rules, I won the bet on that one, but he was closer with his guess.

Never let doctors yell at you. They are your employees!


edit:
Any one who ever worked for me very quickly learned better.

I lost 10 pounds, so she didn't yell too much. But she did tell me to imagine how much I'd lose if I really worked at it.

Aside from stopping with eating, how'd you manage that then? Share in the secret. :)

Well, I just checked... I lost 10 pounds as well.
My secret is soup. I make a mean soup, we eat it for three days. After that I make a new soup, which we eat for three days. The final day of the week we eat a normal meal. The rest of the time, in between meals, when I feel hunger pangs I eat cherry tomatoes. By the bucket.

Last week when weighed I'd lost 2 kilos, this week an added 3 kilos. So yay, 5 kilos in two weeks. Perhaps I should try drinking only unsweetened tea and (Aldi) bottled water as well, now still on CC Zero.

Invokana. Dr. said to think about how much I'd have lost with that AND eating less bad stuff.

You bet ya. It tastes really good as well.

0.7 kilo of finely cut up chicken breasts, that I baked with an onion, bamboo shoots and several spices. Added to that is 3.5 liters of water, one pot of vegetable soup starter, two cubes of chicken stock, 2 bags of coarsely cut vegetables, one bag of finely cut vegetables.

Sometimes dieting isn't too bad. :)
This together with cherry tomatoes and a small salad is all I may eat for the next 3 days.
