The cliff shown in the photograph is a fault scarp developed along the Koaʻe Fault. The Koaʻe fault is down toward to the west while most of the other faults on Kilauea are down towards the east. The Koaʻe fault lies between the east and southwest rift zones of Kīlauea Volcano. This fault is about 10 miles (16.1 km) long, and the displacement at the surface is about 50 ft. (15.2 meters). A scarp is called a pali in Hawaiian and is a cliff that forms along the disruption caused by movement of the fault. In this case, the southeast side is up and the northwest side is down. This inland facing fault scarp is called Kulanaʻokuaiki Pali. The trees in the photo are native ‘ōhi‘a trees.

To get the bus through its MOT we must fix all the electrical faults on the bus. Tachograph and speedo has failed, Low Oil pressure warning light is jammed on, Hand brake warning light is not working, High temp light and alarm is on constantly. As you can see the dashboard has been stripped out to start addressing these issues.

Aerial photograph of Desert Hot Springs and the Mission Creek Strand of the San Andreas Fault (from about 8 o'clock to 2 o'clock), Riverside County, California. Included in this view to the east-southeast are: Two Bunch Palms (near center of image), the Little San Bernardino Mountains (upper left), and Sky Valley (upper right).
I'd heard of the Garlock fault and since I was so near, I detoured over to see the place. The fault runs along the base of the Tehachapi Mountains in the background. There's not much left to the "town."
Looking across the fault line through Loch Lomond to Arran.
Different edit from earlier post. Don't normally like portrait, but think this works a little better.
110-million-year-old sedimentary rocks (Whatuwhiwhi Formation), cut by a small fault, exposed in the shore platform at Waiari, Karikari Peninsula. These rocks were deposited as a series of submarine landslides into a deep-ocean environment during the last days of the Gondwana Supercontinent. The prominent beds protruding from the platform are harder sandstone, separated by softer, more erodable mudstones.
The most prevalent geologic feature of the Carrizo Plain is the San Andreas Fault, which runs along the northeast side of the plain, at the base of the Elkhorn Scarp. The section of the fault in the Carrizo Plain is the oldest section along the entire fault zone. Displacement on the San Andreas is responsible for the development of distinctive features, including shutter ridges, diverted or decapitated stream channels, and sag ponds.
The scale card along the base of the photo is marked in centimetres (black) and millimetres (white bands separated by black lines).
A sub-vertical fault plane with sharp bends and slight curves along slickenline striation paths/traces (in non-technical terms, scratches in the rock from frictional drag along the fault surface),
indicating a history of slight and temporary change in displacement direction (part of Eocene age extensional faulting in south-central British Columbia). Location: Warren Creek Road, near Greenwood, British Columbia.

Norris sits on the intersection of three major faults. The Norris-Mammoth Corridor is a fault that runs from Norris north through Mammoth to the Gardiner, Montana, area. The Hebgen Lake fault runs from northwest of West Yellowstone, Montana, to Norris. This fault experienced an earthquake in 1959 that measured 7.4 on the Richter scale (sources vary on exact magnitude between 7.1 and 7.8). These two faults intersect with a ring fracture that resulted from the Yellowstone Caldera of 600,000 years ago. These faults are the primary reason that Norris Geyser Basin is so hot and dynamic. The Ragged Hills that lie between Back Basin and One Hundred Springs Plain are thermally altered glacial moraines. As glaciers receded, the underlying thermal features began to express themselves once again, melting remnants of the ice and causing masses of debris to be dumped. These debris piles were then altered by steam and hot water flowing through them.
Norris Basin, named in honor of Philetus Walter Norris, the park's second superintendent, lies about 4 km ( 2.5 miles) north of the northwest rim of the 640,000-year-old Yellowstone caldera and is the northernmost geyser basin in the park. Scientists believe that more or less continuous thermal activity at Norris dates back more than 150,000 years before present, making it the earliest hydrothermal basin of Yellowstone.
The mountain shows clearly the fault line of red rocks. Amazing to see geology on display like this.
The San Andreas fault extends through California for a distance of nearly 600 miles. It is a right-lateral strike-slip fault, meaning that the opposite side of the fault always moves to the right, and the motion is predominantly horizontal. This fault greatly affects the rocks through which it passes, as seen at this well-known locality just west of the Avenue S offramp from the Highway 14 freeway in the city of Palmdale, California (not far from LA). I guess you could safely say it`s San Andreas` fault whenever anything goes wrong around there!

Oi pessoal! Desculpem por não ter passado pra desejar feliz Natal pra vcs... entrei de férias dia 20 e fiquei ocupada com os preparativos pro Natal. >.>
Mas espero que tudo tenha sido ótimo! *-*

Ganhei esse livro de Natal, a história é tão linda, os personagens, as reflexões deles... ♥ Eu que não sou fã de romances achei incrível, recomendo. *-*
Aí eu terminei de ler e resolvi tirar uma foto, pq as cores da capa (que achei linda) combinam com as da make da Mizuki xD (ela tá sem roupa pq eu gostei assim e tava com preguiça de escolher alguma -q). Mas não ficou exatamente como eu queria, devo excluir isso logo logo. e.e

Não tenho fotos novas, então já desejo um feliz Ano Novo pra vcs! x3 Espero que 2014 seja ótimo que todo mundo consiga realizar os planos que estão sendo feitos ♥
