A few days ago I wrote that the current flooding in Louisiana would become even more tragic if a hurricane hit this year as well..
Cue the weather model. Look at this one, which blows up a hurricane big time in the Gulf and brings the storm in over the same locations that both Katrina hit and the latest round of extreme flooding ..
Praying that this does not happen. But it’s something people in the area need to be paying attention too starting immediately..
This is a potential storm and potential track to watch for in Florida, the gulf coast states, and the east coast. The target on this is 240 hours from now..
The track and intensity are both still completely Unknown..
I came across the linked article by searching online whether people think cicadas are louder this year than other years. I think they are ..
What I found however showcases the reasons they scream in terror when the sun goes down..
By joining their voices, male cicadas reach a volume that repels birds on the prowl for their next meal.
But escaping death-by-bird only sets cicadas up for a far worse fate. The bugs are also hunted by the cicada killer wasp, which, frankly, sounds like a sociopath.
If you’ve ever seen a cicada carried off by the Hannibal Lecter of the wasp family, thank your lucky stars you’re human, because what happens next is the stuff of nightmares.
After delivering a paralyzing sting, female cicada-killers drag their immobilized prey to an underground chamber of horrors.
The cicada is placed in a torture cell, where the wasp lays an egg on it. When a larva hatches from the egg, it immediately begins feasting on the cicada.
Horrific to say the least. The Hannibal Lector comparison hit the nail for me..
This is an image of Ground Zero radio host Clyde Lewis at a conerence this weekend.. He looks good. He lost 100 pounds, recently broadcasting that a diet change and infusion of nutrients is helping with weight loss..
That is encouraging. Whatever he is doing hopefully it continues. His radio show is getting bigger by the day and his voice is the best since Art Bell..
Here is to your health Clyde! And decades more as the voice of late night paranormal radio!
This is a photo of Tim Burton in 1967 showcasing a Halloween costume made for him by his mother.. Perhaps we can see the vivid inspiration that eventually would go on to become the NIGHTMARE BEFORE CHRISTMAS..
The photo source is REDDIT, and there is where lots of commentary about the picture was exchanged (http://ift.tt/2bzF4xv)
Bill Clinton is preparing to be “first dude,” and that includes the quadrennial tradition of presidential candidate spouses submitting cookie recipes.
The former president of the United States, along with Melania Trump, Donald Trump’s wife, submitted cookie recipes for Family Circle magazine’s Presidential Cookie Poll, where readers pick between the two cookie recipes.
The poll, which has been held during the fall of every general election year since 1992, is the latest sign in Clinton’s historic candidacy, where the traditional responsibilities of the first lady could fall to a man for the first time.
The script centers on a man (Pena) who is investigating a woman’s death set in the notorious and infamous Cecil Hotel. Brandon and Phillip Murphy wrote the initial script, which landed on the 2014 Black List and 2014 Blood List. Evan Dickson also worked on the project with the most recent draft being written by Kevin Kolsch and Dennis Widmyer, the duo behind the 2014 horror thriller Starry Eyes.
Matt Tolmach is producing as is Daniela Cristina Cretu. David Manpearl is also producing. Matt Milam and Dan Kagan is overseeing for the studio.
This show has been on for as long as I have been alive. When I was young, my mom and dad loved politics. They debated at the dinner table—those old adages of religion and politics not being discussed was certainly not true in my family..
And from an early age in life, I recall the voice of John McLaughlin signing off the weekly Sunday show with a “bye bye”… As I turned 13, this show featuring old farts bantering about presidents and Congress became one of the chief reasons I eventually got interested in politics and current events…
I even vividly recall one hot summer morning when I was out riding bikes with friends. . looking at my watch and realizing it was 11:25 am.. And I burned two-wheeled rubber just to make it home in time for the half hour dedication to the absurdity that is American politics..
The show was a must see every week. As tech roared in and time wore out, I normally caught the show on Monday, after Sunday, online…
But the impact is clear. On my life and so many others.
John McLaughlin was a lighthouse during turblent times. He made sense of nonsense and political intrigue. He wore bow ties on New Years and had one of the quickest and yet most amazing shows I have ever seen.
If you wanted to know anyting about politics, the McLaughlin Group outlived them all. Outlived the Capitol Gang. Outlived Brinkley.. Russert.. it was a perplexing thing to understand for some new to it.. but after a few weeks, it all made perfect sense.
This Sunday will be the last day. The final show.. And without John McLaughlin, no more “bye byes” … or Gobble Gobbles on Thanksgiving..
The surveillance video from Duffy’s Sports Grill in Jupiter has been released Friday, giving new insight into what led up to the deadly cannibal attack near Tequesta.
It’s at that restaurant where investigators say 19-year-old
Austin Harrouff
had dinner with relatives and stormed out following an argument with his father.
This is the second cannibal attack in Florida in just a few years..
There are people blaming this on drugs. But .. what if it’s not..
This is a naked sculpture of Donald Trump. I am saving your eyes and only showcasing the top up. A Google search can provide you with the REST of the story down below. This is a protest sculpture that has been popping up throughout the country..
The reason I show it: It gave me and my computer an interesting twist in life tonight…
While combing through news articles I stumbled across a Huffington Post story about how seeing that can force one to not unsee it.. it’s forever imprinted into your brain.
For me, it froze the computer immediately. The screen actually froze–embarassing I know–on the Full Monty version of the Trump statue. And then to complicate matters further, the computer actually is not even turning on now!
It is the curse of the Trump package, perhaps.
I broadcast this short dispatch with a warning: Avoid looking at the images at all costs! Your computer hardware may depend on it.
Brazil captain Neymar was in tears after he delivered the country’s first Olympic men’s soccer gold medal with the winning penalty in a 5-4 shootout victory over Germany in a thrilling final at the Maracana stadium on Saturday.
They lost a few times before during the games, mostly in the 80s …
You may have to indulge me a bit over the next few weeks.. Or longer.
Tonight my son Ayden began to swim on his own, without fear, at the tender age of 5.. he had his floaties, but still realized the proper way to move his arms and legs. He was confident and sure of himself.. It was a growing moment.
Next week will be the same. He begins kindergarten. Unfortunately I cannot bring myself to realize that truly, just yet. The idea has not reached fruition in my mind.
Kindergarten.. My God.. Five years .. all gone.
The emotions are going to run high. And there will be lows.. Growing pains. For children. And parents all the same.
This is a screen grab from a video that many believe shows an either REAL or staged human sacrifice on the capus of CERN!
Conspiracy theories rage in the night..
The video appeared on August 11th on YouTube and on the Facebook page ofStranger Than Fiction News. It shows what appears to be a staged human sacrifice ritual performed on CERN grounds at night. Most of the people are in black cloaks and a woman appears to be stabbed. The French news agency AFP reports that it contacted CERN about the video and an unnamed official confirms some aspects of it..
The money quote:
“These scenes were filmed on our premises, but without official permission or knowledge,” a CERN spokeswoman told AFP in an email.
“CERN does not condone this type of spoof, which can give rise to misunderstandings about the scientific nature of our work,” she added.
The “investigation” under way was an “internal matter”, she said.
The video has raised questions about security on CERN’s campus.
Asked to detail the security procedures surrounding access to the campus, the CERN spokeswoman said: “CERN IDs are checked systematically at each entry to the CERN site whether it is night or day.”
She further indicated that those responsible for the prank had access badges.
