Cohen is right so far. it takes one to know one. i've said for a long time that they need to take his passport away, and watch any aircraft he has access to, including those of "friends". i have zero doubts that he still has material he should not have, and is holding onto it as a "get out of jail" card...or maybe a "get into Russia" card. take your pick... if it was up to me, i'd have him on pre-trial detention to make sure he shows up, and with ankle monitors on both legs and a GPS collar around his neck like they use on bears, elk etc...

Rare mountain lion attack leaves 1 brother dead, authorities say​

just a not so gentle reminder that we are only on the top rung of the food chain as long as the critters with fang and claw realize that. when they outlawed hunting mountain lions out there, this was forecast. to a predator that is not afraid of us, we are just chunks of protein bumbling around haphazardly in the woods, waiting to be eaten.

you can see the ship 'aim' at the support...swerved to hit it. it was reported the vessel was going too fast also.

 

[armedoldhippy]

the ship reported losing power AND steering and was being pushed by the current. officials say that their alarms kept it from being FAR worse. the bridge COULD have been jammed with commuters...

Eighteen Oddities in Yunnan (Chinese: 云南十八怪; pinyin: Yúnnán Shíbā Guài; sometimes called

Eighteen Wonders of Yunnan) are eighteen unique traits of the Yunnan province of southwest China. The oddities, which are as follows, are generally presented in the form of a list, which is promulgated in promotional materials advertising the province to foreign and domestic tourists.

1. Eggs are tied up sold in rope-like clustersphoto
2. Bamboo hats are used as wok lids
3. Three mosquitoes make up a dish - mosquitoes are so large that it is said that just three are large enough to make a meal
4. Bamboo is used to make water pipes for smoking
5. Erkuai - a local culinary specialty made of rice, whose name translates literally as "ear piece" (called zi ba, 糍粑 in Mandarin)
6. The same dress is worn for all four seasons - clothing for all four seasons may be seen on a single day in Yunnan, as climatic conditions may vary widely according to altitude and region
7. Young girls are called "Old Lady"
8. Automobiles move faster than trains
9. Toes are exposed all year round
10. Rain here but sunshine there - the weather is often variable between areas just a few kilometers apart
11. Girls wear flowers in all four seasons
12. Girls carry tobacco bags
13. Green vegetables are called "bitter vegetables"
14. Grannies climb mountains faster than monkeys
15. Trains go abroad but not inland
16. Monks can have love affairs[citation needed]
17. Children are raised by men - Yunnan women have a reputation for being hard-working, thus many men stay home to take care of their children
18. Automobiles move in the clouds - many roads are high in the mountains

3. Fresh flowers are served as a vegetable
4. Water and fire are worshipped as gods
5. People sing rather than speak

My Bullshit Detector started jumping around, moving from yellow to red the more I watched this. Paused the video and did a quick Google search, this was the take away from Wikipedia:

"According to State Department of Natural Resources geologist Jack Powell, the hole does not exist and is geologically impossible. A hole of the depth claimed "would collapse into itself under the tremendous pressure and heat from the surrounding strata," said Powell. Powell said an ordinary old mine shaft on private property was probably the inspiration for the stories, and commented that Mel's Hole had established itself as a legend "based on no evidence at all."

Thanks for posting it though, that would have been too cool if it was real.

 

[Zeta Reticuli]

Yes,from beggining they talk on Mel hole like its a fact and later they say that they cant found hole
nor Mel at all.

Who knows what kind of Mel hole they searched,agree with you it looks to me like BS
