Something is happening...

Yes, it's called "Orbital Mechanics". Yet another humble Kuiper Belt Object has it's orbital velocity canceled and dies in a blaze glory. :o)

This is Tsunami territory

Interesting coincidence, I haven’t been feeling so well myself.

[InABunkerUnderSF]

A tangent or just a hypotenuse?

"Something is happening..."

30.5km down... Sounds like subcrustial peaks breaking away. A few more go and the Earth's crust will slip over the mantle creating a pole shift. 2012 arrives early!!! :)

A closed plane figure having three sides and three angles :)

That’s likely sunspot 1039 in the bottom right of your pic of the sun. A comet did break up in a close pass by the sun today; image: http://www.spaceweather.com/images2010/03jan10/comet_c2_anim.gif?PHPSESSID=dnm8tsvkiuglhkaren4gnogcv0

It's interesting that widespread warfare has often accompanied upticks in natural disasters. That was reported (more or less) during the Trojan War (in Homer's Iliad) and by Thucydides in The Peloponnesian War to mention a couple.
