...." The African and Arabian plates meet in the remote Afar desert of Northern Ethiopia and have been spreading apart in a rifting process - at a speed of less than 1 inch per year - for the past 30 million years . This rifting formed the 186-mile Afar depression and the Red Sea. The thinking is that the Red Sea will eventually pour into...

Over at Birmingham's Blunt Instrument there is a feature concerning Jessica Watson. Never heard of her? Well, stand by. She is sailing around the world. Oh, and she is a teenager from Australia. http://www.brisbanetimes.com.au/opinion/blogs/blunt-instrument/smells-like-teen-spirit/20091019-h520.html I remember how my father didn't like the idea of my paddling my inner tube out past the ...
... and go anywhere in yours. 4. All ficlets/drabbles must be posted as comments to this entry. Post each "drabble" as a reply to the one you took your phrase from. 5. Bold the words that you're rifting off in your drabble. Not sure how? are all the tags you need with your word or phrase stuck in between. 6.Every one is welcome. There's no limit on the number of drabbles you can post - write...
..., the cost for extras is still steep enough that in the beginning levels you’ll find yourself running out of money just for a few points.
And the PVP?
Can I absolutely avoid PVP?
No. Due to the rifting system and the zones these happen in, you’ll be forced at the very least to run from–or observe PVP from a distant happy safe place. I’ll explain more when I get to rifts.
PVP from my ...
...fifth Suzie Q today. How she stays so little while eating bloodylittle things like that-riddled with sugar- is beyond me. She scribbles on the hot pink notepad after she’s demolished Suzie Q number six. The rifting of a new melody sounds perfect in the back of her throat. Probably a new song idea. "I think I love you," escapes me. She stops in the middle of her mystery chorus- her amber brown ...
... And below many of these extinct volcanoes, you'll find a mesa, built by lava flows from the volcano. So the basic process is that the volcano forms, puts out a lava flow, and then the continued rifting in the area causes a valley to open up, and a new volcano forms in the valley. It creates a beautiful stair step effect, regionally. The basalt flows that cap the mesas all show columnar jointing, ...
... from the Yucatan to Jamaica. Even farther north from the Cocos plate the general uplifting (and the same current in the mantle) hastened a process that had begun long before-the rifting of North America at about the line of the Mississippi River. The eastern (Appalachian) plate began rotating counterclockwise and shifting northeastward; the western (Texas) plate continued its northwestward drift....
