Earthquake is any sudden shaking of the ground caused by the passage of seismic waves through
Earth’s rocks. Seismic waves are produced when some form of energy stored in Earth’s crust is
suddenly released, usually when masses of rock straining against one another suddenly fracture and
“slip.” Earthquakes occur most often along geologic faults, narrow zones where rock masses move in
relation to one another. The major fault lines of the world are located at the fringes of the huge
tectonic plates that make up Earth’s crust.
Little was understood about earthquakes until the emergence of seismology at the beginning of the
20th century. Seismology, which involves the scientific study of all aspects of earthquakes, has yielded
answers to such long-standing questions as why and how earthquakes occur. About 50,000
earthquakes large enough to be noticed without the aid of instruments occur annually over the entire
Earth. Of these, approximately 100 are of sufficient size to produce substantial damage if their centers
are near areas of habitation. Very great earthquakes occur on average about once per year. Over the
centuries they have been responsible for millions of deaths and an incalculable amount of damage to
property.

TikTok is often applauded for its recommendation system; once it’s finely tuned, the app becomes
one of the best scrolling experiences. My personal theory is that’s why TikTok is so addicting—
everything is so perfectly curated to your specific interests, it’s hard to put the phone down once
you’re sucked in. However, TikTok’s recommendation algorithm still has its own flaws that the
company brings up in its new blog post.
“One of the inherent challenges with recommendation engines is that they can inadvertently limit
user experience–what is sometimes referred to as a ‘filter bubble’,” the post reads. It states that by
optimizing for personalization and relevance, there is a risk of presenting an increasingly homogenous
stream of videos. The post addresses the filter bubble by explaining its goal of interrupting repetitive
content. The “For You” feed “generally won’t show two videos in a row made with the same sound or
by the same creator,” the post says. The idea is that more new types of videos will surface on a feed
than ones that feel like more of the same.
Another issue that TikTok takes seriously is not surfacing dangerous content. This is an issue that
YouTube in particular has faced criticism over for many years. According to TikTok, content that has
graphic material like medical procedures or “legal consumption of regulated goods,” like alcohol, may
not be eligible for recommendation because it could come across as “shocking if surfaced as a
recommended video to a general audience”. That’s why many creators on TikTok will upload a video
more than once or talk openly about feeling shadow banned over particular content.

The bacteria primarily infects the conjunctiva, which are the delicate membranes lining the eyelids
and covering the edges of the eyeballs. The infection causes inflammation known as conjunctivitis. In
normal cats, the conjunctiva is not readily visible and has a pale, salmon pink color. In cats with
conjunctivitis, the conjunctiva becomes swollen and red, making it more visible. The nictitating
membrane or third eyelid in the inner corner of the eye may protrude partially across the eye. One or
both eyes may be involved.
Affected cats initially develop a watery discharge from the eyes that quickly becomes thicker and is
usually a yellow or greenish color. The eyes are uncomfortable and cats often keep the affected eye(s)
closed. Many cats remain bright and otherwise appear normal, but some may develop a fever or lose
their appetite. After one or two days, sniffles and sneezing may also occur. In kittens, the infection
may spread to the lungs and cause a fatal pneumonia.

The Sunday night killing of over 60 people in Mpeketoni in Lamu County, which is in the Kenyan
north coast, has dealt a severe blow to Kenya’s tourism industry. The latest attacks have seriously
dented Kenya’s image abroad and badly affected the tourism sector which has been on a downward
trend in the last one year. Acknowledged worldwide as a top tourist destination and boasting of
famous beaches and wildlife safaris, the Kenyan tourism sector is now at its lowest ebb.
According to the Federation of Kenya Employers (FKE), several hotels at the Kenyan coast have
scaled down operations, and others have closed down. The Mpeketoni killing comes in the wake of a
spate of terror linked attacks in Kenya’s major towns which now threatens to cripple the once booming
tourism sector. Two days before the Mpeketoni assault, the United Kingdom had closed down its
Honorary Consulate in Mombasa citing security fears. In mid May, the UK Foreign and Commonwealth
Office advised its citizens against all but essential travel to Mombasa. Following this travel advisory,
more than 500 UK citizens who were holidaying in Mombasa were evacuated. The UK is the largest
tourist source market for Kenya. France, US and Australia took the cue from the UK government and
issued similar travel advisories and scaling down the operations of their embassies.
According to the Kenya National Bureau of Statistics (KNBS), tourism accounts for 12 percent of
Kenya’s economy earning revenues that average $1.1 billion annually. Tourism occupies a central
place in Kenya which is East Africa’s largest economy. After agriculture’s main exports of tea, coffee,
and horticulture, tourism is the second foreign exchange earner for Kenya.
Growing insecurity is among the main reasons given by the tourism ministry explaining the
declining tourists’ arrivals. The FKE has called on the government to contain the rising insecurity as
the woes on the hospitality industry are having a spiral effect on other sectors. The government has
given all assurances of remedying the lapses within the security system and increased allocations to
the military, police and intelligence services. This increased budget is aimed at modernizing the police
service, adopting latest surveillance gadgetry and boosting morale within the entire security system.

effective to prevent crime and that cameras could displace crime. An internal police report said that
only one crime was solved for every 1,000 cameras in London in 2007. In short, there is conflicting
evidence about the effectiveness of cameras.
Professor Mike Press, who has spent the past decade studying how design can contribute to crime
reduction, said that, in order for CCTV to have any effect, it must be used in a targeted way. Most
schemes that simply record city centres continually - often not being watched - do not produce results.
He described it as a 'lazy approach to crime prevention' and said that authorities should instead be
focusing on how to alter the environment to reduce crime.
But in reality, this is not what is happening. Instead, police are considering using more technology.
Police forces have recently begun experimenting with cameras in their helmets. The footage will be
stored on police computers, along with the footage from thousands of CCTV cameras and millions of
pictures from number plate recognition cameras used increasingly to check up on motorists.

reduce crime" in paragraph 3, it can be stated that …
c. Crime prevention through environmental design does not work to deter criminal behavior.
d. CCTV alone makes no positive impact on crime reduction and prevention at all.
e. The police, along with the citizens should use CCTVs for monitoring criminals.

evidence about the effectiveness of cameras.
Professor Mike Press, who has spent the past decade studying how design can contribute to crime
reduction, said that, in order for CCTV to have any effect, it must be used in a targeted way. Most

He described it as a 'lazy approach to crime prevention' and said that authorities should instead be
