This ruling was also affirmed by the Florida appeals court and denied a hearing by the Florida Supreme Court. When Terri Schiavo's feeding tube was removed for the second time, in 2003, the Florida legislature created âTerri's Lawâ to override the court decision, and the tube was again reinserted. This law was subsequently ruled an unconstitutional violation of the separation of powers.
Ground Shaking-Shaking of the ground caused by the passage of seismic waves near the epicenter of the earthquake is responsible for the collapse of most structures. The intensity of ground shaking depends on distance from the epicenter and on the type of bedrock underlying the area.
Weathering Process. The weathering process occurs when rocks are exposed to the hydrosphere (water) and atmosphere (air).  These agents can change the physical and chemical characteristics of rocks.  As rocks are broken down (weathered), they can be classified as different types of sediments, which are: o boulders, cobbles, pebbles, sand, silt, clay, and colloids. See page 6 of the Earth Science Reference Tables explains the sizes of each of these sediments.
