A Bachelor of Arts with Honors degree can mean different things in different countries. In Australia, New Zealand and South Africa, the honors are earned with a postgraduate year. After the extra year, students are eligible to enter a doctorate (Ph.D.) or a high research master's degree.
Some particularly dangerous faults in the US. The New Madrid fault in the central United States is particularly dangerous. It is the most active seismic area east of the Rockies in the United States and runs from St. Louis to Memphis. The New Madrid fault line is best known for some of the most violent earthquakes to ever hit the United States: a series of four in 1811 and 1812.
Two active Southern California faults may cause a Big One by rupturing together. Two of Southern California's most active faults could rupture together in a magnitude-7.5 earthquake, according to a new study, raising a grim seismic scenario for communities east of Los Angeles. The study established how a major earthquake could begin on the San Jacinto fault and continue on the San Andreas, which is California's longest and one of its most dangerous faults. The San Andreas historically has produced stronger earthquakes than the San Jacinto.
