Dredging Conowingo little help to bay, study finds

Dredging millions of tons of sediment from the Susquehanna River upriver of the Conowingo Dam would potentially cost billions of dollars and do little to help the Chesapeake Bay compared with cleanup efforts already underway, a new federal-state study found.

Gov.-elect Larry Hogan and critics of the current pollution-fighting strategies contend that removing massive amounts of sediment flowing down the river would help restore the Chesapeake more than controversial measures to levy stormwater fees, restrict septic-based development or limit farming practices.

The study, to be released Thursday by state officials and the Army Corps of Engineers, concludes that the sediment washed into the bay from the Susquehanna after extreme weather mostly hurts a small part of the upper bay. The study was launched following Tropical Storm Lee three years ago.

Truck Loads of Red Bull 'Fuelling Islamic State'

Taurine-loaded Red Bull has become the energy drink of choice for Islamist fighters in Syria, as it is revealed dozens of lorries are crossing the Turkish border every week, carrying cargoes of the drink to fatigued fighters battling militias and the Syrian state alike.

The revelation of the unusual exports came after new trade figures were published by Turkey, revealing the make-up of exports to war-torn Syria, which is still counted as a unified country despite the border crossings now largely being in the hands of rebel groups including the Islamic State.

Lucrative tolls on passing trade are collected by whoever controls the crossing, meaning jihadist groups are very likely to be turning a healthy profit on taxing trade, tapping an income stream previously the sole reserve of the legitimate Syrian government of Bashar al-Assad.

TheLocal.at reports the remarks of the owner of just one Turkish shipping company, which runs lorries across the Syrian border, before the goods are transshipped onto waiting Syrian trucks. On the remarkable volume of Red Bull he delivers, Mr. Yilmaz said: "While cement, vegetable oil, bulgur wheat, flour, salt and tinned fruit are popular, it is Red Bull that is most sought after by ISIS fighters. Every day we have four or five trucks carrying Red Bulls to Syria".

How To Train Your Brain To Think More Clearly

According to the latest neuroscience, the human brain uses neurons in the left visual cortex to process written words as whole word units. The brain combines these words and their stored meanings to remember and understand information.

Analytical thinking is the process of remembering words and putting their meanings into context. This process is not simply accessing a mental dictionary. Every time you use words, you re-create their meaning.

The words you habitually use when you're thinking (and then expressing those thoughts) mold how you see the world. For example, people who habitually think (and speak and write) the word "hate" tend to find an ever-increasing number of things to hate.

This relationship between word usage and perception is hugely important in business. When you train yourself to speak and write using clearly defined words arranged into concise sentences, you're training your brain to think more clearly.

More important, when you write and speak more clearly, you increase your positive influence on your team. Due to their mirror neurons, they'll begin to imitate your clarity in their own thought processes. Clarity is contagious.

"Conundrums"

"A gun is like a parachute. If you need one, and don't have one, you'll probably never need one again."

The definition of the word "Conundrum" is: something that is puzzling or confusing.

Here are six Conundrums of socialism in the United States of America:


1. America is capitalist and greedy - yet half of the  population is subsidized.

2. Half of the population is subsidized - yet they think they are victims.

3. They think they are victims - yet their representatives run the government.

4. Their representatives run the government - yet the poor keepgetting poorer.

5. The poor keep getting poorer - yet they have things that people in other countries only dream about.

6. They have things that people in other countries only dream about -yet they want America to be more like those other countries.

Think about it!  And that, my friends, pretty much sums up the USA in the 21st Century.

Makes you wonder who is doing the math.

These two, short sentences tell you a lot about the direction of our current government and cultural environment:

1. We are advised to NOT judge ALL Muslims by the actions of a few lunatics, but we are encouraged to judge ALL gun owners by the actions of a few lunatics.

Funny how that works. And here's another one worth considering...

2. Seems we constantly hear about how Social Security is going to run out of money.  But we never hear about welfare or food stamps running out of money?  What's interesting is the first group "worked for" their money, but the second didn't.

Elvis Presley - 'Unchained Melody'

What a voice and what a shame

Elvis two months before his death

Elvis Presley - 'Unchained Melody':

When Elvis Presley hit the road in June 1977, he was an absolute mess. He was only 42, but years of prescription drug abuse and horrifying dietary habits had left him bloated, depressed and near death. He had an enlarged heart, an enlarged intestine, hypertension and incredibly painful bowel problems. He was barely sleeping and should have probably been in the hospital, but he was still a huge draw on the concert circuit and the money was too good to turn down. It had been over a year since Elvis last released a studio album, and manager Colonel Tom Parker was determined to get more product into the stores. Despite Elvis' horrid shape, Parker arranged for a camera crew to film the June 19th show in Omaha for a planned TV special and live album. It eventually aired on CBS two months after Elvis died, and has yet to resurface in any official capacity. This isn't the Elvis that his estate wants the fans to remember. Two days later, the cameras were still rolling when the tour hit Rapid City, South Dakota. It was another weak and sad night until Elvis sat down at the piano near the end to deliver a spellbinding rendition of "Unchained Melody." As guitarist Charlie Hodge held a microphone, Elvis dug deep and poured his heart into the song. His body was falling apart, but his voice remained almost as powerful as ever. Without any doubt, it's the last great moment of his career. The tour limped along through five more shows, wrapping up June 26th at the Market Square Arena in Indianapolis, Indiana. The show ended with "Can't Help Falling in Love." He died less than two months later.

49 Years Ago

This is the Paul Harvey 1965 broadcast of the future for America unless Christians act.

This was 49 years ago, but oh how true.

The pictures were uploaded by the producer. Harvey was on the radio.

This was his radio broadcast on April 3,1965. An amazing prediction!

Do you remember the famous ABC radio commentator Paul Harvey?

Millions of Americans listened to his programs which were broadcast to over 1,200 radio stations nationwide.

When you listen to this, remember the commentary was broadcast on April 3, 1965, 49 years ago. It's short. . . less than 3 minutes. But you will be amazed and dumbfounded.

Video From a Hospital Bed That the Patient Says Shows Incident So Disturbing He Hasn’t ‘Been the Same’ Since

A Florida man filed a lawsuit this week alleging that while he was in the hospital a male nurse sexually assaulted him.

“It has caused me a lot of damage. I haven’t been the same since this happened,” the unnamed victim said at a news conference this week, according to WFOR-TV. “He put his hands in my boxers and he grabbed my private part and he started playing with it.”

WPLG-TV reported that the alleged victim went to the hospital in the first place with leg and back pain on Sept. 15. In the emergency room at Palm Springs General Hospital in Hialeah, the man he said he was given medication that made him drowsy. There he alleged that such inappropriate behavior by ER Tech Rene Martinez happened not once but twice.

Burwell: We Need To Give Obamacare To DREAMers

Health and Human Services chief Sylvia Burwell made an appeal for immigration reform and extending Obamacare benefits to DREAM-eligible illegal immigrants on Tuesday while promoting the health-care law.

Burwell was touting the upcoming Obamacare enrollment period, which begins Saturday, on a webcast with several Latina bloggers when she stepped outside her typical domain and advocated for a change in immigration policy.

“DREAMers are not able to be covered in the marketplace,” Burwell said in response to a question about whether families with mixed immigration statuses can get Obamacare coverage. “And this is an issue that I think is more than a health care issue — it is an immigration issue.”
