Although the Chinese couldn't tell anyone exactly what an earthquake measured on the Richter scale (since the Richter scale wasn't created until 1935), they did manage to invent the world's first earthquake detector -- a seismograph.
WHAT IS AN ALIBI? An alibi is any evidence showing that a citizen accused of a crime was somewhere other than at the scene of a crime when the crime occurred. While T.V. and movies often portray the alibi as a fraudulent and untruthful, in the real world, the alibi is a perfectly respectable legal defense.
Alimony (also known as spousal support or maintenance) is the court-ordered financial support of one spouse by the other spouse as a part of a legal separation or a divorce. In Ohio, after determining the division or disbursement of the parties' property, the court determines an award of alimony (spousal support).
