An earthquake is the shaking of the Earth's surface caused by the sudden release of energy in the lithosphere. The effects of earthquakes include ground shaking, landslides, tsunamis, and fires. To prepare, families should familiarize themselves with evacuation areas, prepare emergency kits, conduct drills, and check the stability of their homes. During an earthquake, people should drop, cover, and hold on, and go to open areas after shaking stops. After an earthquake, remain cautious as aftershocks can occur, check for injuries, and avoid damaged structures.

by the shaking itself or by the ground beneath them settling to a different level than it was before the earthquake (subsidence) or (uplift).
Subsidence is the motion of a surface (usually, the Earth's surface) as it shifts downward relative to a datum such as sea-level.
A fault is a fracture or zone of fractures between two blocks of rock. Faults allow the blocks to move relative to each other.

Earthquakes are the shaking, rolling or sudden shock of the earth’s surface. They are the Earth's natural means of releasing stress. Earthquakes can be felt over large areas.
Earthquakes cannot be predicted, although scientists are working on it.
Earthquake: A Tragedy to life and propertyVanshika Singh
Earthquakes are the shaking of the surface of the Earth resulting from a sudden release of energy in the Earth's lithosphere that creates seismic waves. Earthquakes can range in size from those that are so weak that they cannot be felt to those violent enough to propel objects and people into the air, and wreak destruction across entire cities.
A natural disaster is a major adverse event resulting from natural processes of the Earth; examples include floods, volcanic eruptions, earthquakes, tsunamis, and other geologic processes.
How to Split Bills in the Odoo 17 POS ModuleCeline George
Bills have a main role in point of sale procedure. It will help to track sales, handling payments and giving receipts to customers. Bill splitting also has an important role in POS. For example, If some friends come together for dinner and if they want to divide the bill then it is possible by POS bill splitting. This slide will show how to split bills in odoo 17 POS.

Students, digital devices and success - Andreas Schleicher - 27 May 2024..pptxEduSkills OECD
Andreas Schleicher presents at the OECD webinar ‘Digital devices in schools: detrimental distraction or secret to success?’ on 27 May 2024. The presentation was based on findings from PISA 2022 results and the webinar helped launch the PISA in Focus ‘Managing screen time: How to protect and equip students against distraction’ https://www.oecd-ilibrary.org/education/managing-screen-time_7c225af4-en and the OECD Education Policy Perspective ‘Students, digital devices and success’ can be found here - https://oe.cd/il/5yV
The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.
2. WHAT IS EARTHQUAKE
An earthquake is the shaking of the surface of the Earth,
resulting from the sudden release of energy in the Earth’s
lithosphere that creates seismic waves. Earthquakes can
range in size from those that are so weak that they cannot be
felt to those violent enough to toss people around and
destroy whole cities. The seismicity or seismic activity of an
area refers to the frequency, type and size of earthquakes
experienced over a period of time.
3. EFFECTS OF EARTHQUAKE
• The primary effects of earthquakes are ground
shaking, ground rupture, landslide, tsunamis,
and liquification. Fires are probably the single most
important secondary effect of earthquakes.
• When two massive plates meet at a convergent boundary, the
impact buckles one or both edges of the plates, shifting them
upwards to create mountains and sometimes volcanoes – or it
can bend one of the plates to create a deep marine trench on the
seabed. In divergent boundaries, the plates move away from each
other on the ocean’s floor, often forming deep trenches that allow
magma fissures to open and spew lava.
6. THING TO DO BEFORE AN EARTHQUAKE
• Familiarize the evacuation area of your place
• Prepare an emergency kit
• Conduct an earthquake drill
• Know the fault line of your area
• Check the sturdiness of your house
• Plan out a meeting place with your family
7. THINGS TO DO DURING AN EARTHQUAKE
• DROP, COVER, and HOLD
• Stay calm
• Stay away from windows
• Stay away from tall buildings
• Go to an open area
8. THINGS TO DO AFTER AN EARTHQUAKE
• Be alert and cautious
• Expect an aftershocks
• Check your self and your family for injuries
• Stay out of damage areas
