Equake Applet in gnome-panel

Changes since v. 1.0 are:
- Added feature to monitor earthquakes above a certain magnitude only
- A change in the preference file will now be noticed and propagated in the application for real, this happens at the time of an update (either the timed update or through the menu)
- Added “Region:” string to the map label and url, added some punctuations
