Traffic Police

"I don't know the name of this cop but he usually manages the ITPL road traffic (the long U turn from Graphite India signal) and does a very good job. If it wasn't for him, that U turn would have been a bigger nightmare. Today I was pleasantly surprised that he was physically taking off some extra cement which some civic authority left callously (BBMP most likely) on the road so that traffic doesn't get piled up. Kudos to people like him."

Earthquake

The Earth's structure has three parts — 
  1. an outer silicate solid crust (till about 30km from the surface), 
  2. a viscous mantle (2,900km thick) below the crust and 
  3. a core (3,500km diameter) at the center. 
The uppermost part of the mantle and the crust is broken into seven major tectonic plates — 
  1. African, 
  2. Australian, 
  3. Eurasian, 
  4. North American, 
  5. South American, and 
  6. Pacific. 
The motion of these plates against each other causes earthquakes.
