Fraction of recoverable near Earth objects as a function of absolute magnitude (H)

BEIJING In theory, the difference between capital inflows and outflows in developing countries should be positive they should be net capital importers, with the magnitude of the balance equivalent to the current account deficit. Since the 1997 1998 Asian financial crisis, however, many East Asian countries have been running current account surpluses and hence have become net capital exporters.

It was a 7.6 magnitude. It was fairly big.

China ran a very large current account surplus during the early 2000s and accumulated a vast stock of foreign reserves including at least several trillion dollars worth of US Treasury debt. Although this looks impressive on paper, reserves of this magnitude are essentially useless.

The 7.5 magnitude earthquake triggered a tsunami and has destroyed thousands of homes.

The magnitude of the difficulties we face in Côte d'Ivoire is quite clear.

She considered that it was important to stress the magnitude of the problem.

The magnitude of the catastrophe requires a commensurate response from the global community.

However, when something of that magnitude happens, we are at the center of the coverage.

The devastation was of great magnitude and resulted in unprecedented loss of life and destruction.

Well, remember that's not even an order of magnitude, but that's a different story.

So, there's no technology in the world that can span 11 orders of magnitude.

Hundreds of people were injured and hospitals, damaged by the magnitude 7.5 quake, were overwhelmed.

There are more active volcanoes beneath the sea than on land by two orders of magnitude.

The magnitude and impacts of desertification vary greatly from place to place, and change over time.

We've been searching ever since, but it's impossible to overstate the magnitude of the search that remains.

The proof of this came in Chile, almost a month later, when 8.8 magnitude earthquake hit Chile.

Well, let's click the zoom lens down one order of magnitude, and look at the century scale.

The chemistry from compounds in the environment is orders of magnitude more complex than our best chemists can produce.

Although such numbers may not be precise they are generally accepted to be in the correct order of magnitude.

However, since we cannot prevent the disaster or predict its magnitude, the recovery process is therefore of paramount importance.

My principles would start from the observation that market economies and free and democratic societies are built atop a very old foundation of human sociability, communication, and interdependence. That foundation had a hard enough time functioning when human societies had 60 members eight orders of magnitude less than our current global society s six billion.

And a lot of people say, how do you sleep at night when you're rustling with a problem of that magnitude?
