Lions Kill at Least 3 People this Week, Sharks Approach Florida Beaches

An intern in a Fresno California big-cat sanctuary, was killed earlier this week, by a 550 pound lion.
The name of the deceased, is Dianna Hanson, age 24.
The rumors are she died almost instantly of a broken neck.  She was on a cell phone call with a co-worker which abruptly ended.  The lion was apparently in an adjacent cage which had some formation of the gate with an opening of some extent.

In Zimbabwe, another female was mauled to death.  A body in condition of remains was found of a second person in Zimbabwe after a hunt for the lion blamed.

Both of these incidents are remindful of the film The Ghost and the Darkness, 1996. --Although thousands of miles apart.

It is extremely important to remember, that when dealing and interfacing with animals that have predatory skills in their nature, that basic prima facie [on the surface] theories of space, and time, may not be absolute limitations on that animal.

For example, a science book says an animal can leap up to 15 feet when attacking.  DO NOT stand 16 feet away and think you are safe.  Another source says an animal is 500 pounds, and 4 feet at the shoulders, and 3 feet wide; do not assume that if you build a containment that is just under 4 feet high, and a few inches below 3 feet wide, that the animal will not manage to DEFY laws of nature, physics, and the behavior that was caught on video when the animal knew humans were watching.

Florida beaches have been making their precautions against shark visitors resulting in beach closures in some areas.  What the demographics of beach visits this Spring Break season is is yet to be seen.  About 2 weeks ago a shark about 14 feet long killed a man just off the northwestern coast of New Zealand.  The sharks approaching Florida in the past few days are evidently of a different species; however, taking safety measures is performed.

In outward appearance, the lion in the Fresno sanctuary might have more glamour, in that it was large and muscular, the weight of 550 pounds is like a large NFL defensive lineman together with a large NBA basketball player, 300 pounds and 250 pounds, at almost zero percent body fat, making it a very powerful predatory cat; essentially what we think of when we think of lion attacks here in the U.S.  The lion or lions in Zimbabwe, which might have less fame than lions in South Africa, of the ones that we have seen, might not be as glamorous in appearance, might not have the mane in cartoon films and picture books such as the 'Lion King', might look more down to earth, and a creature of the land that has to chase down food in the food chain like all the other animals, grungy, thirsty, nearly dehydrated.  All in all, lions are still lions.  Sharks are still sharks.

When 'Bad Calls' and Bad Judgement Keep Up: From Snow Flurries to Top Decisions. Before-this-Day-is-Over-Mention.

Snow/weather conditions in DC surrounding areas of Maryland/DC area today are on BORDERLINE before drawing connections to cancellation of business as usual to recent trends of misguidance reflective of a status of lawlessness.

Lawlessness is a buzz word, referring to when people that clearly cannot differentiate between right and wrong whereas they are engaged in wrongdoing are appointed to positions that are esteemed which also by the way has the appearance of an attempt of retroactively undermining the system of reward for maintaining morals.


What happens is, when the momentum of bad judgement keeps up, the natural orders of the world form hardships that result in retrogression and relapse to decadent conditions.

The right-guided plans for the full-house of the eyes on the horizon to warn us from danger is not what the enemy that seeks to destroy us wants.

This before the rush of thunderous scold.

Schools have been left open for weather conditions more severe than today's.

Sun rays that we see today... are from the past, some say days ago, today's weather based on yesterday's... common sense would dictate what the totality of the situation would be...

Luckily this time around, it might have been better to keep school buses safe.




This story was not worth and did not make the severe weather blog at etisworld.com

[comment on March 7, 2013: just clarifying Maryland/DC area means the areas near DC and the DC surrounding areas of Maryland; not talking about the conditions in Frostburg area or the mountains at the far west of the ladle-handle.  First sentence has been edited accordingly]

Ultra-Deep Oil Drilling :: Before the Rush

With increased capacity of oil drills respective the depth they can go, comes a perceived possibility of changes in the dynamics of the industry; geographically, where it is if it there, and if it is there, the effects on the oil exchange stage.

Markedly a geographic region referent, is the South China Sea.

Geologists are steering toward indications that there can be a lot of oil down there, which is supposed to correspond to a lot of money, worth.

U.S. representatives have already been making a presence in the area about the prospective/advent.

Complexity to the arena, is some of the waters involved are 'disputed'.

Further complexity is where the rigs will relocate/ be built.

Prepare for Meteor Shower Season Just Like Tornado or Flood Season

It might be a time to get ready for meteor shower 'season'.

Protection from meteors and phenomenon of that ilk, is not just in the areas of people getting struck by pieces and particles, such as the result of disintegration or fragmentation of the meteor, but additionally in the areas of force fields and other disruptive qualities as it pertains to the astrological object or objects, and the targets could also include buildings or important structures such as sources of energy and communication.

Troubles in Connecticut: Part 2: Ways to Help. Event of Newtown December 2012.

In the wake of the shooting at Sandy Hook in Newtown, Connecticut

There are ways that we can all help, from all locations.

• Be a good neighbor
• Bloggers and writers: post advisory that are sound in how to treat children of all ages
• Make it clear what is good parenting and what is bad; some young parents, if they do not know, might not know
• Be your brother's and your sister's keeper
• You don't have to spoil your neighbor with food for their kids when they do not have job of which could lead to a lack of motivation for the parent to maintain employment; but at the obvious levels, do not let conditions get to extremes, if your neighbor lost a job because the factory just burned down
• Develop the resources to provide good guidance to families

And there is a longer list

It is more than just donating money

Troubles in Connecticut: Reflections on the School Shooting: The Other Problems: Child Abuse. 12 21 12

This 12 21 12, is a day to get some things straight.
First, condolences to the victims of the school shooting tragedy in Connecticut.
This blog post is going to focus on Connecticut.
There was an incident in China involving an attack on young children; condolences to them also.  The lessons to be discussed herein have the intended scope limited to point to the Connecticut incident.

The school: Sandy Hook Elementary
Newtown, Connecticut
20 children killed, 6 adults killed [estimate]
12 girls, all ages 6 or 7 [est.]
8 boys, all ages 6 or 7 [est.]
[source: most Internet news stories]

First, without playing hide the hidden knowledge, it is well known that anytime a tragedy occurs that involves mass loss of life of children, it can be an indicator that there are other things wrong in the area.

One of those things that you start to look at, is what is the situation of child abuse in that area.

Which leads to, there are a number of things that need to be addressed concerning the overall condition of the State of Connecticut.

Not all of the matters that need looking into are presented here right now, or yet.  We will start with a table provided at: http://www.acf.hhs.gov/programs/cb/resource/child-maltreatment-2011

What has been done here, because the information might be hard to read, and requires computer software that everyone might not have, is put it on a graphic that is easy to see and understand, with a few notes.

What is obvious, as many adults stand forth with the request to do something about violent acts, let us hope that every single one of them is 100% clean in regard to how they treat their children.  If they are, good.  If not, please improve, and the same that are not showing face, that are doing the abusing.  CONCURRENT to EFFECTIVE REDUCTION of violence, is EFFECTIVE REDUCTION OF CHILD ABUSE.

From the online source, 'Connecticut Judicial Branch law Libraries':
Abused: “A child or youth may be found ‘abused’ who (A) has been inflicted with physical injury or injuries other than by accidental means, (B) has injuries that are at variance with the history given of them, or (C) is in a condition that is the result of maltreatment, including, but not limited to, malnutrition, sexual molestation or exploitation, deprivation of necessities, emotional maltreatment or cruel punishment” CONN. GEN. STATS. § 46b-120(7) (2012 Supplement).

For larger image, click and open in new window.  Snapshot of conclusions graphic placed above due to technological limitations.

For the 6 and 7 year old group, the statistics are somewhere around the average of 500 and 600 per each age, totaling about a 1000, a thousand, for the 2011 year.

This is what the tables seem to indicate.

The graphic, you be the judge:

Praises. 12 12 2012 aka 12 12 12. Technology and Fiscal Cliff

12 12 12 a day of technology heights.  Have we done it?

We all know that yes, we have gone far, but, compared to where we could be, we could have been much further.

Referencing just what are some of the underpinnings, and their underpinnings of the financial challenges, that have almost 'got us'?

Could these problems been avoided, if certain actions or non-actions were carried forth?

What is being talked about here?/: Allocation for schools and education, INSTEAD of ______

This is amongst a few.  Another:
The real estate and house value dip, and lowering, if the effort to prevent it had more strength in the strong arm efforts so that it would never have been, could it have been avoided?

There is not going to be another 12 12 12 until 12 12 20---.  There will not be another shot to get on the track some say we needed some say we wanted to be on.

There will be other dates, 3 3 13 and 11 12 13 --just a thought.  Let's look to those historic dates as of now are in the future, at show at the level they are worthy of.


Volumes can already be written about the 'fiscal cliff' that we are dealing with as 2012 closes out.  Good that solutions have been developed.  However, the nature of a fiscal cliff, which in itself is not in some aspects a good thing, because we did have to take the time to deal with it and develop mechanism to face the challenge, warns us, that, in the future, if we are not ALWAYS AND CONSTANTLY working towards the best of economic conditions, that we could approach a next time, and if there is a next time, the situation might be worse.  Let us have it learned, and there will not be a next time.  There are goals that are more elevated in the light of the fiscal cliff should've never been.
