HOLD ON! HE'S ALIVE !

HAPPY EASTER 2016!!

ITS ALL AROUND US! 


FOR SOME ITS MERELY HUMANITY GONE MAD WITH FEAR.




OTHERS THINK IT IS JUST YOUNG PEOPLE DREAMING OUT LOUD.


ANOTHER GROUP SAYS IT IS OLD PEOPLE ATTEMPTING  TO WRITE A BETTER ENDING TO THEIR LIFE'S CHAOTIC MOVIE.




FATALISTS AND SONS OF SENECA SEE WHAT IS HAPPENING AS THE START OF A GREAT STOIC REVIVAL.




BUT FOR MANY OF US THERE IS A SWEET SOUTH WIND GENTLY SPEAKING ETERNAL HOPE AND RENEWAL LIKE HOLY EASTER ITSELF. (I.E. THE EMPTY TOMB REPRESENTS THE ULTIMATE RELEASE FROM THIS PLANET'S HOLD UPON SINFUL HUMANITY.)


THE BIBLE IS ALL ABOUT A SECOND CHANCE FROM THE BANISHMENT OF "TWO ORCHARD THIEVES" (from Melville's Moby Dick) TO THE LAST CHAPTER OF THE LAST BOOK IN GOD'S HOLY WORD.


EASTER SAYS LOUD AND CLEAR: "HOLD ON DISCOURAGED PARENTS. HOLD ON CONFUSED TEENAGERS. HOLD ON PERSONS WHO LIVE IN PAIN, FEAR, AND UNCERTANITY. HOLD ON DISCOURAGED AND TIRED PASTOR YOUR WORK AND LIFE MATTERS. IT MATTERS TO JESUS--- THE ONE WHO DIED FOR THE CHURCH BECAUSE OF HIS LOVE FOR IT.


WHAT A SAVIOR!


HOLD ON! HOLD ON! HOLD ON!


AND SOMEDAY, LIKE MLK,JR, WE WILL SHOUT: "FREE AT LAST! FREE AT LAST ! FREE AT LAST! THANK GOD ALMIGHTY: FREE AT LAST!!!"

I HAVE SAID IT A MILLION AND ONE TIMES......

I HAVE SAID IT A MILLION AND ONE TIMES: WATCH OUT FOR THOSE MALL EASTER BUNNIES. THEY WILL SET YOU BACK!!!!!


THE FOLLOWING URL PROVES MY POINT:

SOMEHOW THIS WECKLESS WABBIT; THIS FIRST COUSIN TO BUGGS; THIS NOCTURNAL NIGHTMARE SEEMS TO ALWAYS CAUSE PROBLEMS WHERE EVER HE GOES.


IN KENTUCKY THERE IS AN OFT TOLD STORY CONCERNING "MR. TROUBLE MAKER." A VERY MEAN MAN ASKED THREE PRE-TEENS IF THE BUNNY HAD LEFT ANY CANDY FOR THEM? THEY REPLIED, "NO, BUT WILL WHEN WE GO TO BED."


THIS MEAN MAN SAID DON'T LOOK FOR ANY MORE EASTER CANDY. WITH ALMOST PERFECT HARMONY THEY ASKED,"WHY?"


"SOME DUDE OVER IN HALLS GAP SHOT HIM WITH A SHOT GUN."


NEAR TEARS, THEY ASKED,"DID HE SAY ANYTHING BEFORE GOING TO THAT BIG CARROT PATCH IN THE SKY?"


I AM TOLD HE SAID, "TELL....TELL.... THE OTHER TWO I TOOK ......ONE....ONE FOR THE TEAM" (AN OBVIOUS REFERENCE TO SANTA AND THE TOOTH FAIRY.)


"HIS NOSE STOPPED TWITCHING, HIS EARS FELL SLOWLY TO THE GROUND AND HIS EASTER BASKET TILTED AT AN 87 DEGREE
ANGLE SPILLING MOST OF THE PEEPS AND CHOCOLATE HOLLOW CORE BUNNIES. THE LEGEND CAME TO AN END."

'V" IS FOR VOLCANO

ENTIRE ARTICLE FROM URL:
http://earthsky.org/earth/what-triggers-supervolcano-eruptions


"What triggers supervolcano eruptions?

Supervolcanoes – massive eruptions with potential global consequences – don’t appear to follow the conventional volcano mechanics, say researchers.

A supervolcano is classed as more than 500 cubic kilometers of erupted magma volume.

A new study suggests that supervolcanoes – massive eruptions with potential global consequences – don’t to follow the conventional volcano mechanics of internal pressure building until the volcano blows. Instead, the study finds, such massive magma chambers might erupt when the roof above them cracks or collapses.


Study leader Patricia Gregg, a professor of geology at the University of Illinois, presented the findings at the annual meeting of the Geological Society of America (November 1-4, 2015) in Baltimore, Maryland. Gregg said:

It’s very likely that supereruptions must be triggered by an external mechanism and not an internal mechanism, which makes them very different from the typical, smaller volcanoes that we monitor.
If we want to monitor supervolcanoes to determine if one is progressing toward eruption, we need better understanding of what triggers a supereruption.

A supervolcano is classed as more than 500 cubic kilometers of erupted magma volume. For comparison, Gregg said, Mount St. Helen’s ejected about one cubic kilometer of material, so a supervolcano is more than five hundred times larger. Gregg said:

A typical volcano, when it erupts, can have lasting impacts across the globe. We’ve seen that in Iceland when we’ve had large ash eruptions that have completely disrupted air traffic across Europe. A supereruption takes that to the nth degree.

Knowledge of triggering mechanisms is crucial for monitoring supervolcano systems, including the one that lies beneath Yellowstone National Park. The last known eruption of a supervolcano on Earth occurred at Lake Taupo in New Zealand 26,500 years ago.


The new study’s findings are contrary to papers published last year that link eruption likelihood and magma buoyancy. The ‘magma byouancy’ hypothesis suggested that magma – liquid rock – may be less dense than the rock surrounding it and therefore could push up against the roof, like an ice cube bobbing in water, increasing the pressure within the chamber and triggering an eruption. Gregg said:

Typically, when we think about how a volcanic eruption is triggered, we are taught that the pressure in the magma chamber increases until it causes an explosion and the volcano erupts. This is the prevailing hypothesis for how eruptions are triggered. At supervolcanic sites, however, we don’t see a lot of evidence for pressurization. When I incorporated buoyancy into my numerical models, I couldn’t reproduce the 2014 studies. "

I'VE BEEN TO THE RIVER JORDON .......

Twenty four hours prior to this post I was in an ambulance  en-route to the ER at the local hospital. Space, Time, and HIPA restrictions precludes a full and detailed account of the circumstances which caused this fast and bumpy ride.


Let's just say I fit the classic check list for a hear attack . I indeed thought I was going to die. All of a sudden, life became much, much clearer and focused on only those issues that really matter.

NOT THE SAME PERSON YOU FELL IN LOVE WITH

WHAT DO YOU SAY AFTER 50+ YEARS?

            FIFTY PLUS YEARS LATER


 Hide your current problems and big concerns
 Pills, bills, grandkid frills forget them all now
 Deaths, divorces, jobs, fears all wait for later


In a few minutes or an hour at most no boast
All the things you wish you had said must come
It will change nothing in the past just tomorrow


Today you'll let them know how you felt then
The grave closes all mouths, ears, and hearts
Perhaps like me you long for one more ........

NEW BIO FOR NEW BLOG READERS

LAST WEEK WE HAD BLOG READERS FROM 7 DIFFERENT COUNTRIES, 8 IF YOU ADD TEXAS. BELOW IS A NEW REVISED BIO. NEW BLOG READERS ARE ALWAYS WELCOME!

Glenn was born at a very early age in a log cabin  that he helped his father build. His early childhood was marked by malnutrition and lack of clean drinking water. He was adopted by a Korean family and was sent a monthly care package of fish heads and rice. Often the fish heads would be stolen from the package by the rural mail man who had several undernourished children at home.

 

The lack of a proper diet soon produced embarrassing results. He was sent home from the third grade because he had so many cavities that he talked with an echo. His parents knew they could turn Glenn's funny speech to a profitable advantage. When the carnival left the county fair, Glenn  unwillingly left with them.

 

He toured the entire summer with the carnival and was billed as the World's Fastest Repeating Talker. Through the concern of the Three-Eyed Man and The Himalayan Yak Lady he was given a bus ticket home just before the start of the fourth grade. His parent's were so glad to see him they sold the family milk cow and pet turkey and had his teeth pulled and replaced with a used set of metal dentures. Unfortunately, as they left the dentist office a rogue bolt of lightening struck Glenn in the head, welding his young mouth shut.

 

It was not until his junior year in high school, when he enrolled in vocational welding, was he able to once again speak and eat normally.  During this new-found freedom he learned that 7-Up was not green and the earth was not flat.

 

After high school, he entered the military and worked on the development of the highly-classified crossbow. Following the Army, he put himself through correspondence night school and was elected president of his class. Armed with confidence, he wrote two New York Times Best Sellers:"Lawn Darts For Dummies" and "How To Quit Smoking In 80 Years."

 

He has served on the President's Council of Alchemy and spends most of his spare time attempting to develop a bio-degradable bubble gum. Glenn is a much sought-after speaker and welcomes invitations where a free meal will be served.
