On May 1, 2008 Bill Cosby spoke in Newark NJ as a guest of Mayor Cory Booker. Bill gave his usual message about doing for self and he added this.

You've got these idiots who've got these degrees and some of them are ordained ministers and they say, 'Bill, you're picking on the poor,'" he said. He then drew laughs by adding, "Well, so did Jesus, then. Jesus was always telling someone, 'Go ye.' Jesus was al ways telling people to go somewhere. And, 'Don't do this again or don't do that again.'"

Know Your Earthquake Terms

Familiarize yourself with these terms to help identify an earthquake hazard:

Aftershock
An earthquake of similar or lesser intensity that follows the main earthquake.

Earthquake
A sudden slipping or movement of a portion of the earth’s crust, accompanied and followed by a series of vibrations.

Epicenter
The place on the earth’s surface directly above the point on the fault where the earthquake rupture began. Once fault slippage begins, it expands along the fault during the earthquake and can extend hundreds of miles before stopping.

Fault
The fracture across which displacement has occurred during an earthquake. The slippage may range from less than an inch to more than 10 yards in a severe earthquake.

Magnitude
The amount of energy released during an earthquake, which is computed from the amplitude of the seismic waves. A magnitude of 7.0 on the Richter Scale indicates an extremely strong earthquake. Each whole number on the scale represents an increase of about 30 times more energy released than the previous whole number represents. Therefore, an earthquake measuring 6.0 is about 30 times more powerful than one measuring 5.0.

Seismic Waves
Vibrations that travel outward from the earthquake fault at speeds of several miles per second. Although fault slippage directly under a structure can cause considerable damage, the vibrations of seismic waves cause most of the destruction during earthquakes.
