Looks like a fairly large earthquake off the coast of Northern California about 70 miles west of Eureka:



http://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/recenteqsww/Quakes/nc71348851.php

Likely no damage or injuries.  My worry is more that it could trigger the fault line and set off other quakes. 

Let's hope not!!  We live on the New Madrid fault line....we have had a couple little shakes since we moved back to the area.............the dogs know before the shake that it's coming.  I can deal with the little shakes................

About The New Madrid Fault

THE NEW MADRID FAULT SYSTEM EXTENDS 120 MILES SOUTHWARD from the area of Charleston, Missouri, and Cairo, Illinois, through New Madrid and Caruthersville, following Interstate 55 to Blytheville and on down to Marked Tree, Arkansas. It crosses five state lines and cuts across the Mississippi River in three places and the Ohio River in two places.

THE FAULT IS ACTIVE, AVERAGING MORE THAN 200 MEASURED EVENTS per YEAR (1.0 or more on the Richter scale), about 20 per month. Tremors large enough to be felt (2.5 - 3.0 on the Richter scale) are noted annually. Every 18 months the fault releases a shock of 4.0 or more, capable of local minor damage. The most recent registering 4.3 along the New Madrid Fault on Thanksgiving evening, 1996, which was felt by citizens in the states of Missouri, Arkansas, Tennessee and Kentucky, Illinois and Mississippi. Magnitudes of 5.0 or greater occurring about once per decade, can do significant damage, and be felt in several states.

His Dad had to get back to DC rather quickly and unexpectedly..........  (ROFLMAO!! Enjoy the 30 inches of snow) so between work and Michael, I've been a little busy. It's the week-end and girlfriend is taking over for the most part until Monday!

We miss you CBB. Just worry about how things are going. Glad to hear your son is up and moving.    I pray each day it gets easier for him and you. Glad to hear you get a little break this week end. Get some rest.

  So sorry to hear about the sudden departure of the ex Ya DC is getting slammed big time. Hope he took his shovel with him

Have my computer together once again, so will be checking in more often.

If you wish, please cut and paste this message and pass it on to all whom you think would be interested.

Thank you,

American Legion’s Operation Comfort Warriors competes for $250K Pepsi grant
Votes Needed!
                                       
INDIANAPOLIS (Feb. 1, 2010) – The American Legion’s Operation Comfort Warriors is competing for a $250,000 grant to be awarded by Pepsi Cola, Inc. More than 700 charities are competing for grants, which are determined by the number of votes received at its Web site. As of this morning, Operation Comfort Warriors was 21st  in voting. The top two vote getters will receive quarter-million dollar grants.
 
Visitors can cast their votes at http://www.refresheverything.com/operationcomfortwarriors.
 
Since December 2008, the American Legion family has raised funds for Operation Comfort Warriors, a program dedicated to meeting the needs of wounded military personnel, providing them with comfort items not usually supplied by the government. OCW ensures that patients at U.S. military hospitals and warrior transition units are given items like sweat suits, DVDs, puzzles, electronic devices, books, calling cards and more.
 
“The wars in Afghanistan and Iraq continue. Military service will always include inherent dangers from training and other hazardous duties,” American Legion National Commander Clarence E. Hill said. “As long as our men and women are in harm’s way, there will continue to be wounded warriors. The American Legion needs to be there for our heroes. Operation Comfort Warriors is an excellent way to show our appreciation for their sacrifices. I urge all Americans to show their appreciation by voting for it on the Pepsi Refresh Everything Web site.”
 
All administrative and marketing costs for Operation Comfort Warriors are paid for by The American Legion, meaning 100 percent of all donations and grants received go to the troops.

When my mother was alive she lived in Indianapolis and had earthquake insurance!

Where the one struck in CA is (if I remember correctly) has a small volcano under the surface out in the sea. It's been a few years since I researched it so memory is hazy.

So with that, I'll say that it's good to be back and goodnight!

CBB, Hope you didn't get this snow. If it is girlfriends turn, rest while you can.

We have over 2 feet and working on 3 here in Virginia. Power went out about 3:30 this AM and we started preparing for the long haul. Trying to get a fire started in the fireplace (we never use it, but keep it clean and wood on hand just in case). Anyway the power came back on at 11 AM so maybe they were prepared this time. Keeping my fingers crossed. Don't mind being stuck in the house as long as we have power.
I keep saying I am going to get a generator, but this only happens once every 8 or 9 years.

Will try to post pictures later. Everyone in the path of this storm take care and be safe.
