The Japan Meteorological Agency seismic intensity scale is a seismic scale used in Japan to measure the intensity of earthquakes. It is measured in units of shindo (震度, seismic intensity, "degree of shaking"). Unlike magnitude measures such as the moment magnitude scale (Mw), and the earlier Richter magnitude scale,[1] which attempt to describe the energy released by the earthquake, the JMA scale describes the degree of shaking at various points on the Earth's surface, and is analogous to the Mercalli intensity scale. The intensity of an earthquake is not totally determined by its magnitude, but varies with event's depth, and distance from the event; for example, a quake may be described as "shindo 4 in Tokyo, shindo 3 in Yokohama, shindo 2 in Shizuoka".
The JMA operates a network of 180 seismographs and 627 seismic intensity meters[2][3] and provides real-time earthquake reports to the media and on the Internet.[4]

Divorce is less expensive here, women always get custody of the kids, men Inst start new families.
