Has there ever been another reported earthquakes in Hatti?
I'll assume you're referring to the earthquake of 2010 and yes, there have been many others. The first recorded earthquake on the island, though it wasn't Haiti yet, occurred in 1564. There were more in 1701, 1751, 1770, 1783, and 1842. The greatest recorded quake was on August 4, 1946 with a magnitude of 8.1. The next major earthquake was the 2010 one.
How many times more powerful was the Japan earthquake than the Christchurch earthquake?
The 2010 Christchurch earthquake was of magnitude 7.1. The 2011 Christchurch earthquake was of magnitude 6.3. The 2011 Japan earthquake was of magnitude 9.0. The formula for comparing the energy released by two earthquakes using the moment magnitude scale (which is what I assume those numbers are in, since it's the most common scale for large earthquakes) is D=103*(m1 - m2)/2 So compared to the more recent Christchurch earthquake, we get that the Japan earthquake was about 103*(9.0-6.3)/2 = 103*2.7/2 = 104.05 which we can tell even without actually doing the calculations is a bit over 10,000 times more powerful in terms of total energy released. (this does not, however, mean 10,000 times more damage).
How many houses get destroyed from an average earthquake?
If you take into account all earthquakes in all locations that have ever happened, and I assume you only mean houses built by humans, then the average number of houses destroyed would round off to zero. Hope this helps.
What do scientist assume about the universe?
The way the universe works now is the same as how it did in the past, as well as how it will work in the future, which is unverifiable and therefore must be assumed. Some examples: - Scientists assume that there is no way to secure complete and absolute truth - Secular scientists assume that the earth and universe were not created supernaturally. - Scientists assume that natural laws we identify will apply to all of the universe - Scientists assume that they all work towards the common good - Scientists assume life can evolve on earth in the presence of water - Most scientists assume near-death experiences and out-of- body experiences are a result of a lack of oxygen in the brain

Are tsunamis more likely in an active continental margin?
really. Since they are generated by activity, one would assume so. Massive earthquakes or slides generate them. No activity-no tsunami.

Because her father was of course a male and she had had bad experiences with those, so I would assume that's why she's a gay.
How would serving as a Student Internship with the Fire Department assist and prepare you to achieve your goals?
Think in terms of the real experience you had versus the idealistic feeling you had prior to starting as an intern. The real experience taught you many things I would assume. Team goals, life's unfairness, those in need, dependency on others (other fireman) in the house. All these experiences help in some way preparing you for your next job.
