Collapse Of Key Bridge Strategic Attack

Collapse Of Key Bridge Strategic Attack — Lara Logan is reporting that the the collapse of the Francis Scott Key Bridge in Baltimore 1:30 this morning, March 26, was caused by a planned “strategic attack” on US critical infrastructure.

The 1.6 mile bridge collapsed in seconds after it was hit by the container ship Dali.

It was most likely cyber-warfare she says.

Second busiest strategic roadway in the nation for hazardous material now down for 4-5 years – which is how long they say it will take to recover. Bridge was built specifically to move hazardous material – fuel, diesel, propane gas, nitrogen, highly flammable materials, chemicals and oversized cargo that cannot fit in the tunnels – that supply chain now crippled, she posted on X

With an open border and an armed forces directed by “diversity” rather than courage and competency, now is not the time to go to war.

Seattle Earthquake Looms

An article in The New Yorker is claiming that experts are putting the odds of an almost unimaginable disaster occurring in the next 50 years in the American northwest at 1 in 10. Seattle Earthquake Looms

They say that the unheralded Cascadia Fault will be the cause of a 9-plus magnitude earthquake followed by a 100-foot tsunami.

Directly affected will be everything west of I-5 from Seattle to Portland.

The initial death toll will be 13,000 as estimated by FEMA.  If the quake hits in the summer when the beaches are full it will be far higher.Those with no choice but to remain there will spend three to six months without electricity, one to three years without drinking water and sewage systems, and three or more years without hospitals.

At 6:17 p.m., in Springfield, Pa., minutes after the June 23 storm.

BillLawrenceOnline was among the Delaware County organizations affected by Tuesday’s storm. Power and service returned about 7:40 tonight, June 26.

We would like to thank PECO and Springfield Township for their assistance. Despite the wait, we never felt abandoned.

We also again realized what great neighbors we had.

Chef Bill Sr. should himself to be a chef supreme in his cooking the food thawing in the freezer. The lemon-chicken, cheese steak burritos and blueberry pancakes done on a gas grill made us pity the poor people who had to eat in restaurants.

One point, though immediately after the storm neither 911 nor PECO were taking emergency calls.

Professor Cyril Broderick Claims Ebola Conspiracy

With the first American Ebola case now confirmed in Dallas, we should note some things not to do for those in a position to have a forum and we will start with Delaware State Professor Cyril E. Broderick, Sr., a Liberian native who had a screed published in the Monrovia Daily Observer blaming the disease on the CIA.

The Daily Observer is Liberia’s largest newspaper.

Broderick cited the 1989 novel The Hot Zone as his source.

Really.

Delaware State is defending Broderick declaring that  it is his First Amendment right to spout this garbage.

Of course, that’s a straw man. Nobody is advocating jail for this twit. We are suggesting it be appropriate to condemn what he wrote — The First Amendment applies to Delaware State administrators as well, after all — and takes step to disassociate the school from him.

It is a sad day when the NFL takes idiotic statements by its employees more seriously than academia.

Solar Storm Approaches

During the past two days, the Sun has had two bursts of radiation called a coronal mass ejections, or CMEs.

The one that was emitted Tuesday is supposed to arrive early tomorrow, Sept. 12, and create a G2 (Moderate) geomagnetic storm, according to the National Weather Service Space Weather Prediction Center.

The one that was emitted Wednesday is expected to arrive arriving later in the day and combine with Tuesday’s CME hence creating a G3 (strong)  geomagnetic storm

The G3 storm watch will continue through Sept. 13 with G1 (minor) storming expected to occur into Sept. 14.

The authorities don’t seem to expect any problems that can’t be handled, however, and have not as of Thursday evening issued any advisories for the average citizen.

Ebola Coverage Stays Quiet

With all the stories regarding celebrity deaths and such, it sure is easy to see why its hard for the old media to find some room concerning the West African Ebola epidemic.

Today’s Philadelphia Inquirer did manage to sneak in a few paragraphs on page 4 about how its going to last six more months.

As of yesterday, Aug. 15, the reported toll was 1,145 deaths and  2,127 cases of the disease.

The World Health Organization (WHO) claims the reported toll “vastly underestimate the magnitude of the outbreak.”

The New York Times, to its credit, is taking the matter seriously, as is Matt Drudge.

Other stories of interest not getting much mention is a report that Ukraine has attacked Russian troops — something denied by Russia —  and leaves changing color in Pittsburgh due to record cold temperatures pretty much putting paid to all claims of global warming.

Fukushima Not A Nuclear Disaster

Fukushima Not A Nuclear Disaster — What happened March 11, 2011 in Fukushima, Japan wasn’t a nuclear disaster according to physicist Kelvin Kemm. Granted, it was a earthquake and tsunami disaster but the actual destruction caused by the core meltdown at the Fukushima Daiichi plant was minor.

Kemm notes that there no deaths or injuries caused by radiation , and no private property damaged by radiation.

“What there was, was a major media feeding frenzy fueled by the rather remote possibility that there may have been a major radiation leak,” says Kemm.

Kemm notes that the only deaths caused by the meltdown were due to the forced evacuation of thousands of persons leading to heart attacks and disrupted medical treatment.

If a near half-century old nuclear plant can experience a nine magnitude earthquake and 30-foot tsunami without causing nuclear energy related deaths, then nuclear energy is a technology that should be encouraged.
