Praying for the nations: Indian Ocean ~ 12 Mar 2013 Â Psalm 18:2 The Lord is my rock, my fortress and my deliverer; my God is my rock, in whom I take refuge.Â He is my shield and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold.Â Â Â Â Background:Â The Indian Ocean is the third largest of the world's five oceans (after the Pacific Ocean and Atlantic Ocean, but larger than the Southern Ocean and Arctic Ocean). Four critically important access waterways are the Suez Canal (Egypt), Bab el Mandeb (Djibouti-Yemen), Strait of Hormuz (Iran-Oman), and Strait of Malacca (Indonesia-Malaysia).

*On this date in 1745, we remember the birth of Olaudah Equiano, an African slave, and author. From Nigeria, Equiano, also known as (Gustavus Vassa), was kidnapped from his African village at the age of eleven, shipped through the grueling "Middle Passage" of the Atlantic Ocean, hardened in the West Indies and sold to a Virginia planter. He was later bought by a British naval Officer, Captain Pascal, as a present for his cousins in London. After ten years of enslavement throughout the North America, where he assisted his merchant slave master and worked as a seaman, Equiano bought his freedom. At the age of forty-four he wrote and published his autobiography, The Interesting Narrative of the Life of Olaudah Equiano, Or Gustavus Vassa, The African. Written by Himself, he registered this writing at Stationerâ€™s Hall, London, in 1789. More than two centuries later, his work was recognized not only as one of the first works written in English by a former slave, but perhaps more important as the paradigm of t ...

Wiki sez: "C. amethystoglossa is native to Brazil in the states of Bahia and possibly Espirito Santo, where it is found near sea level in close proximity to the Atlantic Ocean. (It) grows on palm tree trunks, rock, and large tree branches high in the canopy of evergreen trees. This plant is found growing in bright, airy, humid locations. Its native range has been greatly reduced due to habitat destruction, logging, and agriculture."

Yesterday was about 60F and sunny, so I went down to the Atlantic Ocean just a little north of VA Beach. Went in the water ankle deep. Unintentionally. I was taking pictures when a huge wave crashed and rolled WAAAY up on shore where I was standing. Not sure what the water temperature was, but it was maybe one or two degrees warmer than ice water...maybe. My fingers taste like salt everytime I tie my shoes now.

Eko Atlantic City... Web Of Intrigues, Mysteries Around A Prime Project *A City And Its Foggy Propositions* SOME fundamental legal issues regarding the construction of the Eko Atlantic City as well as the veil of secrecy surrounding the Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) report have come to the fore, just as key players continue to advance contradictory positions regarding the project. The real story is unfolding on the heels of glaring inconsistencies in the positions being taken by the Lagos State Government/South Energyx Ltd, the proponents and executors of the project on one hand, and the representatives of the Federal Ministry of Environment, constitutionally empowered to ensure all projects comply with the EIA Act of 1992. Recent revelations by government officials about the new city being built on land reclaimed from the Atlantic Ocean confirmed various reports by The Guardian since November 6 last year. One of the reports had stated categorically that the Eko Atlantic City project was being don ...

frica is the world's second-largest and second-most-populous continent. At about 30.2 million kmÂ² (11.7 million sq mi) including adjacent islands, it covers six percent of the Earth's total surface area and 20.4 percent of the total land area.[2] With 1.0 billion people (as of 2009, see table), it accounts for about 15% of the world's human population. The continent is surrounded by the Mediterranean Sea to the north, both the Suez Canal and the Red Sea along the Sinai Peninsula to the northeast, the Indian Ocean to the southeast, and the Atlantic Ocean to the west. The continent includes Madagascar and various archipelagoes. It has 54 fully recognized sovereign states ("countries"), 9 territories and three de facto states with limited recognition.[3] Africa, particularly central Eastern Africa, is widely accepted as the origin of humans and the Hominidae clade (great apes), as evidenced by the discovery of the earliest hominids and their ancestors, as well as later ones that have been dated to around se ...

What an amazing time to be alive. I saw the Pacific Ocean and the Atlantic Ocean in one day. Hawaii is was wonderful. I can't imagine how it could have been more enjoyable or more memorable. Great time with wonderful friends plus volcano at night time, 6 nights in a Big Island villa with waterside view, green sand beach, four wheel driving tour, massive waterfalls, hiking in a rain forest, snorkeling with manta rays, historical sites, Pearl Harbor, Punchbowl, Waikiki, amazing food, long talks that enlivened and encouraged, an authentic luau and more perfect beaches than I can even name off hand.

Do not be lulled into a false sense of security with these 60's and 70's for a few days. Thursday night looking interesting as does the week of March 18th. :-( I put a sad face because I know people in Fluco Land are OVER it. You just can't have as much warming over the Arctic as we did January, February, and early March without consequence in the lower 48. If the Atlantic Ocean were not so warm (compared to average), we would have had a hand full of blizzards January and February.

New York â€” Australian billionaire Clive Palmer unveiled plans Tuesday for construction of Titanic II, a cruise ship designed as a "full-scale re-creation" of the Titanic, which sank in the Atlantic Ocean in April 1912. Displaying a blueprint for the Titanic II at a press conference aboard the Intrepid Sea, Air & Space Museum, Palmer announced that the ship will be built in China and begin carrying passengers in the third quarter of 2016. Palmer, who refused to divulge the cost of building the ship, said "the Titanic was a ship of dreams," and "the Titanic II will be the ship where dreams come true." The Australian businessman, who owns an Australian mining company and other businesses, said he has received an overwhelming response from prospective passengers who want to travel on Titanic II. He predicted that it "will be a real financial bonanza" so successful that he will "have to build Titanic III." Some Titanic and cruise-ship experts doubt the Titanic II, which Palmer says will regularly sail across ...

HMC News via HNN: WHITMAN, Mass. (AP) - The late-winter storm that buried parts of the country was forecast to be little more than a nuisance for most of New England. Try telling that to Connecticut and Massachusetts residents who spent two days shoveling as much as 2 feet of snow. "The forecast was 4 to 6 inches and I think I'm looking at about 12 to 14 inches," West Roxbury resident Mark Spillane said as snow continued to fall Friday. "I did not expect to have to bring out the snow blower." The storm was centered far out in the Atlantic Ocean, and by the time it reached New England, forecasters were focused on the potential for coastal flooding and not snow, which in many places was predicted to reach a maximum of 6 or 8 inches. The coastline was battered by three high tides during the duration of the storm, the worst Friday morning, when some roads in coastal towns were flooded with up to 3 feet of water. A vacant house on Plum Island, off the northeast coast of Massachusetts, was ripped from its found ...

A hurricane begins as a tropical depression with a sustained windspeed of less than 39 mph (35 knots; 63 km/hr). As the system strengthens, it becomes a tropical storm with winds from 39 to 73 mph (35-63 knots; 63-118 km/hr). Tropical storms are named in the Atlantic, East, Central and Northwest Pacific, inthe South Indian Ocean, and in the Arabian Sea. When the windsare sustained (based on a one-minute average) at 74 mph (64 knots; 119 km/hr), the storm becomes: In the Atlantic Ocean, East Pacific, Central Pacific (east of the International Dateline) and Southeast Pacific (east of 160Â°E) a Hurricane ; in the Northwest Pacific (west of the International Dateline) a Typhoon ; in the Southwest Pacific (west of 160Â°E) and Southeast Indian Ocean (east of 90Â°E) a Severe Tropical Cyclone ; in the North Indian Ocean a Severe Cyclonic Storm ; and in the Southwest Indian Ocean (west of 90Â°E) a Tropical Cyclone.

Last week at MalariaWorld: On models and LLINs This week there was a lot of international press about a paper that indicated that ocean surface temperatures in the south of the Atlantic Ocean can be used to predict surges of malaria in Northwest India four months in advance. I read this news on SciDev.net, and the original research article that describes the model was published in Nature Climate Change. What struck me though, was the fact that on the same page of SciDev.net mention was made of a 'Mathematical model developed to predict malaria outbreaks', published on 11 June 2012, another story titled 'Climate model gives early warning of malaria outbreaks', published on 28 September 2010, and yet another story 'Scientists quantify El Nino's effect on malaria' published on 23 February 2009.

South Florida will be feeling some side effects this weekend of the big snowstorm that blew through the Northeast this week, according to the National Weather Service. Itâ€™s being called a high surf/coastal event, which means big waves will be generated as the storm moves out over the northwest Atlantic Ocean, forecasters said. Choppy surf conditions will begin Friday with breakers near the beach increasing to 4 to 6 feet in Palm Beach County and 3 to 4 feet in Broward.

The Top Three Zombie Outbreaks in U.S. History Like vampires, zombies are great opportunists. So it comes as no surprise that zombie outbreaks often happen in the wake of natural disasters. Combine disasters with warm climates and you truly have a recipe for a major outbreak, as the following stories prove. Key West, Florida, 1935 Key West, 1935: Zombie bodies prepared for disposal On Labor Day, September 2, 1935, a major hurricane bore down on the Florida Keys, a string of islands separating the Gulf of Mexico from the Atlantic Ocean. The hurricane, one of only two Category 5 storms ever recorded in the United States, made landfall at Key West, the most populous of the keys. As day turned to night, heavy rains and winds of over 150 miles an hour rolled over the island, destroying virtually everything standing. Amid the destruction, infected rats began roaming the island, and by morning, the first of the zombies appeared. Many islanders mistook the zombies for dazed hurricane survivors and the plague spre ...

IKURU TOWN, STRATEGIC TO GULF OF GUINEA - IKURU Rivers State Deputy Governor, Engr. Tele Ikuru, says siting a naval outpost at Ikuru Town in Andoni Local Government Area is strategic to security in the Gulf of Guinea due to its strategic position in the Niger Delta region. Engr. Ikuru said this today at Ikuru Town during a familiarization visit by the Flag Officer Commanding (FOC), Eastern Naval Command, Rear Admiral Joseph Aikhomu. Stressing the need to site the naval outpost in the area, the Deputy Governor pointed out that â€œIkuru town is open to the Atlantic Ocean, several creeks and the Gulf of Guinea in general,â€ observing that â€œsecurity in Ikuru Town is security in the Gulf of Guinea,â€ disclosing that the area is home to 182 oil wells amongst other oil facilities.

HISTORY Carnival photo 1 The Ilajes are sub-group of Yorubas in the Ondo state Nigeria made up of four geo-political groups namely Ugbo, Mahin, Etikan and Aheri respectively. They were said to have left ILE-IFE their original ancestral home in the 10th century to the present atlantic coastline of Ondo state of Nigeria while the large population of them settled on land in the hinterland. Ilajeland is bounded by the Ijebus to the West, the Ikales to the North, the Itsekiris to the East, the APOI and Arogbo Ijaws to the North East while the Atlantic Ocean is in the South. Despite the harsh terrain the Ilajes were able to build large communities like IGBOKODA, UGBONLA, AIYETORO, ZION PEPE, and ORIOKE IWAMIMO. Aiyetoro for example in it's hey days had the highest per capital income in the whole of Africa and attracted visitors, tourists and researchers from all over the world especially from Europe, Canada and America. Petroleum is largely found in the area for which Ondo State today is recognized as an oil pr ...

One day, an Italian man was returning home to Italy after living in America for a number of years. He was on a steamboat that was crossing the Atlantic Ocean from America to Europe. The journey across the ocean took several days and everyone on board was looking for some entertainment. One day, this Italian man came across a young boy who was juggling a couple of oranges on the deck of the ship. It happened that this Italian man was a professional juggler and that was the job he had been doing in America for so many years. He approached the young boy and offered to juggle his oranges for him. Because he was so good at juggling, a little crowd gathered around him. The juggler became excited and took on more and more oranges. Each time he took one more orange the crowd became more frenzied and cheered him on. The Italian juggler became even more excited and told the crowd, â€œI am going to show you something.â€ He excused himself from the crowd and went to his cabin to take something. When he came back on ...

There is an untold and and sort of hush hush history about the MOORS/MUURS thats like a big secret, Truth is that the MOORS were, and still are the Aboriginal and Indigenous inhabitants of the NORTH, CENTRAL, South America, MEXICO, CANADA and all of the adjoining island. {"The Ancient Moorish Empire"} extended at one time from Africa & Europe to the America's anciently referred to as (("AMEXEM")). The Moors inhabited the shores of Africa & the America's (North,South, & Central Mexico and all the Adjoining islands) When the land were still connected before the 'great earthquake' which caused the great "Atlantic Ocean". The Moors are those Descendants of the Africans whom inhabited the North western & South western shores of Africa.

Day 65. Why Florida? This is one of the most common questions I get, and it's one that we'll all have very different answers to. I'll briefly summarize my response, although I could talk for days about the subject. I was born in the country - the rolling hills of East Texas to be exact. I spent my early youth learning to swim on a lake that my family lived on. We had plenty of land with woods to explore, the countryside to admire, and nothing but the natural outdoors to entertain us. I have fond memories of learning to swim and exploring the land at a very early age...the most impressionable years of my life. I moved to Florida and the Atlantic Ocean at the age of six. The water became my escape...my home. I learned to surf, fish, dive, camp, boat, wakeboard, skimboard, kayak, canoe, and basically anything else that involved the water. I developed a deep respect for the ocean and its connecting waterways; this would compliment my appreciation for the lands I grew up on. For me, Florida is a perfect blend ...

Hi Snow Lovers *** Good Bye to Winter* All the ingredients were there for a late Winter snow storm for Mid Atlantic I-95 cities. The high pressure to the north, a powerful low off the east coast and just enough cold air available to interact with loads of Atlantic Ocean moisture. Most reliable weather models showed impressive snow accumulation projections. But for I-95 cities DC, Baltimore, Philadelphia and New York the storm spun just too far south and east to put that energy together for a big snow storm. The snow that fell in western Virginia and Maryland was impressive with up to 20 inches reported in some areas. The snow junkies on the blogs and forums are stunned how badly this Winter has gone. There was at least six or seven storms that should have resulted in decent snow events but except for one good hit in New York & New England they all failed to come together for us. This looks like the end of our Winter and time for me to crawl into my cave to hibernate for the long hot Summer ahead. Thanks . ...

Guinea Bissau The Republic of Guinea-Bissau is a country in West Africa bordered by Senegal to the north and Guinea to the south and east, on the west the Atlantic Ocean. It covers only 36.125km2 (14.000 sq miles) with an estimated population of 1.600.000 divided in 9 regions. This means that the country has a comparable size with Belgium. Belgium though, has 8 times the population of Guinea Bissau. Now, the question is if this are real numbers, as census is something still missing in this country.

WEATHER ALERT - Coastal Storm - Threat Summary â€¢Low pressure will slide off the coast near the Virginia and North Carolina border early this morning then strengthen as it moves off the Mid-Atlantic coast through Thursday. This system will produce a variety of impacts for eastern North Carolina but the main threat will be strong westerly winds, today into this evening across the entire area and through Thursday morning along the coast. Wind advisories are in effect. â€¢The strong winds will produce a threat of minor coastal flooding. The most likely areas affected by coastal flooding will be areas adjacent to the Pamlico Sound along the Outer Banks, and along the northern Outer Banks adjacent to the Atlantic Ocean. Portions of Highway 12 north of Cape Hatteras may close at the typical vulnerable areas. The threat of minor sound side flooding could shift into portions of Carteret and southern Craven counties along the southern Pamlico Sound later in the week as the wind direction veers to the north. â€¢Hi ...

Ok Now we wait and watch and make sure the forecast stays on Track. Watching the radar and the moisture near Virginia, pressure falls in the Atlantic Ocean. Again snow totals are for Tonight through Friday Noon. On average by 8am 3-4 inches, then a little more through Thursday, and watching Thursday night into Friday. We could end up with more snow Thursday Night into Friday than tonight. Just like with the blizzard there could be some bands of moderate to heavy snow. Plan for travel delays Thursday morning.

Sorry I have had so many posts in quick succession tonight and for monopolizing your news feed! The latest European computer model run has come in and it is virtually identical to the previous two. Although it was late to the game in this storm and it hasn't performed too well as of late, it makes the most sense to me, meteorologically, given the blocking in the atmosphere we've had for the past week. So, I think I can safely say that the storm will start during the wee hours of Thursday morning. Any rain or snow showers we get on Wednesday will not be directly related to the ocean storm, but will be caused by an increasing fetch off the Atlantic Ocean due to the persistent onshore wind. Snow will likely spread north to the MA/NH border by morning drive on Thursday and be confined inside of I-495 to the coast. Snow will be heavy south of Boston by noon on Thursday, although a mix with sleet or rain is possible inside of MA-128 and possibly right along the NH Seacoast. Even as the snow falls during the ...

The continent of Atlantis was an island which lay before the great flood in the area we now call the Atlantic Ocean. Â So great an area of land, that from her western shores those beautiful sailors journeyed to the South and the North Americas with ease, in their ships with painted sails. Â To the East, Africa was a neighbor, across a short strait of sea miles. Â The great Egyptian age is but a remnant of The Atlantian culture. Â The antediluvian kings colonized the world Â All the Gods who play in the mythological dramas Â In all legends from all lands were from fair Atlantis. Â Knowing her fate, Atlantis sent out ships to all corners of the Earth. Â On board were the Twelve: The poet, the physician, the farmer, the scientist, The magician and the other so-called Gods of our legends. Â Though Gods they were. Â And as the elders of our time choose to remain blind, let us rejoice and let us sing and dance and ring in the new. Â Hail Atlantis! Â

CUMBRE VIEJA, Canary Islands - MEGA TSUNAMI DANGER: A wave higher than Nelson's Column and travelling faster than a jet aircraft will devastate the eastern seaboard of America and inundate much of southern Britain, say scientists who have analysed the effects of a future volcanic eruption in the Canary Islands. A massive slab of rock twice the volume of the Isle of Man would break away from the island of La Palma and smash into the Atlantic Ocean to cause a tsunami - a monster wave - bigger than any recorded, the scientists warned yesterday. Most of the wave's energy, equivalent to the combined output of America's power stations for six months, would travel westwards to the American coast but enough would be flicked north towards the English Channel to cause catastrophic coastal damage. A computer model has been designed to show the way the tsunami will build after the volcano, called Cumbre Vieja, erupts on La Palma, at the western end of the Spanish island chain. It describes the almost unimaginable sca ...

Distribution Atlantic salmon, Salmo salar Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) reproduces in northern rivers on both coasts of the Atlantic Ocean. Landlocked salmon (Salmo salar m. sebago) live in a number of lakes in eastern North America and in Northern Europe, for instance in lakes Onega, Ladoga, Saimaa and VÃ¤nern. They are not a different species from the Atlantic salmon, but have independently evolved a non-migratory life cycle, which they maintain even when they could access the ocean. Masu salmon or cherry salmon (Oncorhynchus masou) is found only in the western Pacific Ocean in Japan, Korea and Russia. A land-locked subspecies known as the Taiwanese salmon or Formosan salmon (Oncorhynchus masou formosanus) is found in central Taiwan's Chi Chia Wan Stream.[40] Chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) is also known in the US as king salmon or blackmouth salmon, and as spring salmon in British Columbia. Chinook are the largest of all Pacific salmon, frequently exceeding 30 lb (14 kg).[41] The name Tyee is ...

Hilton Head Island or simply Hilton Head is a Low-country resort town located on an island of the same name in Beaufort County, South Carolina, USA. It is 20 miles (32 km) north of Savannah, Georgia and 95 miles (153 km) south of Charleston. The island gets its name from Captain William Hilton. In 1663, Captain Hilton identified a headland near the entrance to Port Royal Sound, which he named "Hilton's Head" after himself. The island features 12 miles (19 km) of beachfront on the Atlantic Ocean and is a popular vacation destination. In 2004, an estimated 2.25 million visitors pumped more than $1.5 billion into the local economy. The year-round population was 37,099 at the 2010 census, although during the peak of summer vacation season the population can swell to 275,000. Over the past decade, the island's population growth rate was 32%. The island has a rich history that started with seasonal occupation by native Americans thousands of years ago, and continued with European exploration and the Sea Island ...

Belderrig is a beautiful sprawling coastal area, scenically located adjacent to the Atlantic Ocean between Ballycastle and Belmullet in County Mayo. Coming to Belderrig is travelling back 1000 million years and more. It is a present to the geologist, archaeologist and the botanist and offers magnificent scenery of sea and cliffscapes, and dramatic mountains. The coastal area, in its simplicity, is regarded as one of the most attractive tourist destinations in north Mayo. Belderrig is a rural area located in a region rich in historical and archaeological heritage. In immediate proximity to the village are the Belderrig Cliffs, which contain some of the most spectacular coastal geology in Ireland. From here the visitor has fine views as far as Porturlin and Portacloy to the north west and the Stags of Broadhaven rise majestically in the distance. On a clear day one can see the Sligo coastline and the cliffs of Killybegs and Teelin (Donegal). It is the largely undisturbed openess of the countryside and the c ...

Ballycastle (Baile an Chaisil) the town of the stone fortress, lies on the beautiful rugged coast of North Mayo. Its northern boundary is exposed to the wild Atlantic Ocean; to the west are the lovely Stags of Broadhaven (600 million year old rocky islands), to the east lies Killala Bay, to the south are the towns of Crossmolina and Ballina. The sea stack known as â€˜DÃºn Bristeâ€™ can be seen at Downpatrick Head approximately 3 miles north east of the village. Here too is a puffing blow hole known as â€˜Poll na Seantineâ€™ with a subterranean channel to the sea. Ballycastle is a small but thriving community, which has much to offer visitors. We have a rich history going back at least 5,000 years. Our ancestors left evidence of their way of life at the CÃ©ide Fields where an interpretive centre has been built. We have long sandy beaches and tall threatening cliffs on our coastline. The cliffs at CÃ©ide reach a height of 365 feet and give a panoramic view of horizontal layers of sandstone 350 million years ...

Not so long ago I realized that there was no longer any reason to wear the spectacles I had worn since I was two years old, since I am now for years nearly totally blind with only a tad, scant, of weak adn pinpoint light perception and even less movement perception in the center of my right eye. Nothing coming in to focus, so why wear trifocals? Even if they did seem part of my face andhad even shaped my tissues to suit themselves. The only practical use they had was to serve as imperfect goggles to protect my eyes from low hanging branches and similar hazards above cane level. I could use shades for that and get more UV protection that way also. Now I am looking at that E. between my first name and my surname. It used to serve a very important purpose: it distinguished me from the late Republican First Parish Court Judge J.Bruce Naccari, a man completely unrelated by any degree of kinship that ever was found this side of the Atlantic Ocean, whose family came to Louisiana in a later century and thus ...

When a Meteor Shock & Awed Chelyabinsk by CHARLES ORLOSKI I think Earth is supposed to hold pat in space, I am here on a little dirt-patch, holding on, and like Governor Palin long ago, I saw Russia one evening, existing beyond my apartment picture-window â€“ A sip of Yuengling beer, sudden-scene of disobedient matter, it was more than I could take that night. Seated upon sofa, sky black, a couple stars visible, maybe a lonely planet where life might be, T,V. was on, CNN replay of lightning bolt strike upon St. Peterâ€™s dome, my bills were paid, grateful, knowing I too go off-course, I held binoculars tight, gently focused east â€“ Atlantic Ocean first view, a Portuguese port, brothel in Amsterdam, then a Carpathian Mountain traveler, walking a shepherd-dog, they too saw something odd. February 15, 2013, Russian-time 10:20 P.M. â€“ I called emergency 9-1-1, wanted to inform local police department about a meteor off-course, blazing across Siberian sky, 1,000 Chelyabinsk residents might be in danger, 9-1- ...

~~Mermaid Random was traveling through the Soo Locks at the very top of Northern Michigan. She was born in Lake Michigan, but traveled out to the Atlantic Ocean every summer to swim with the Manatees. Sheâ€™d noticed that the humans were building more and more boats that could skim over the water faster and part of that scared her. Sheâ€™d come to realize that most of the boaters were recreational boaters and didnâ€™t pay attention to the natural migration patterns of any of the sea creatures; therefore they didnâ€™t watch out for them. Sheâ€™d been witness to young humans pushing their boats as fast as they could go. Sheâ€™d even had a few close calls and she could swim faster than her friends the humble manatees. She traveled from her home to visit the manatees and do what she could to shield them from the humans. This was her tenth trip south as she was still a relatively young Mermaid. She was just happy that sheâ€™d made it to the age years back of not requiring an escort. However, unknown to her sev ...

Mermaids and Fairymaids Mermaids and Fairymaids (Tobago Folklore) - There be mermaids here and Leviathan, great denizens of the deep. Amongst the swirling currents and white capped blue-green waters, just where the Caribbean Sea meets the Atlantic Ocean, close by St. Giles and near to Misty Marble Island, past Anse Gouleme and Anse Brisant, towards the Bird of Paradise Island and down the coast past Speyside to Fat Hog Bay, it is remembered from long ago that this was where the mermaids came to play. Tobago mermaids are male and live in the deep, deep sea. They mate with the fairy maids of the rivers and the secret mountain pools. Riding upon the crest of waves, they are handsome men like kings of old or warriors of long ago, beplumed and richly garbed. They may grant a wish, transform mediocrity into genius and confer wealth and power. Sometimes the water people seek relationships with mortals. Some men are particularly attractive to the fairy maids, especially men with smooth skin. Fairymaids are said t ...

Day 62. Wisdom, Knowledge, and Happiness "A man can do nothing better than to eat and drink and find satisfaction in his work. This too, I see, is from the hand of God for without him, who can eat or find enjoyment? To the man who pleases him, God gives wisdom, knowledge and happiness, but to the sinner he gives the task of gathering and storing up wealth to hand it over to the one who pleases God. This too is meaningless, a chasing after the wind."â€”Ecclesiastes 2:24-26 Adam Clark spent forty years writing his commentary on the Scriptures. Noah Webster labored thirty-six years and crossed the Atlantic Ocean twice to gather material needed to make his dictionary absolutely accurate. Sir Walter Scott put in fifteen-hour days and so wrote a book every two months. John Milton rose at four o'clock every morning in order to have sufficient hours to compose and rewrite the poetry that stands among the best in the world. Catherine Booth helped found the Salvation Army, was an influential preacher, and raised ei ...

Lesser Known Today in History: On this day in 1932, in a crime that captured the attention of the entire nation, Charles Lindbergh III, the 20-month-old son of aviation hero Charles Lindbergh, is kidnapped from the family's new mansion in Hopewell, New Jersey. Lindbergh, who became an international celebrity when he flew the first solo flight across the Atlantic Ocean in 1927, and his wife Anne discovered a ransom note demanding $50,000 in their son's empty room. The kidnapper used a ladder to climb up to the open second-floor window and left muddy footprints in the room. The Lindberghs were inundated by offers of assistance and false clues. Even Al Capone offered his help from prison. For three days, investigators found nothing and there was no further word from the kidnappers. Then, a new letter showed up, this time demanding $70,000. The kidnappers eventually gave instructions for dropping off the money and when it was delivered, the Lindberghs were told their baby was on a boat called Nelly off the co ...

Weather Underground Forecast for Friday, March 01, 2013. The heaviest precipitation in the tropical Atlantic Ocean will occur along the tail end of a cold front as it stretches across western Cuba and over the Yucatan Peninsula. This front will allow moderate to occasionally heavy rain to fall over the Yucatan Peninsula and Yucatan Channel, while light rain and weaker thunderstorms are anticipated for western Cuba. The Gulf of Mexico will be relatively dry, but a cold air mass will move southward into the body of water, bringing below normal temperatures for the gulf and surrounding landmasses. Additional scattered showers and thunderstorms are expected for Central America from Panama through southern Mexico. Moderate tradewinds are expected through the heart of the Caribbean Sea, while moderate to strong winds are anticipate elsewhere in the Gulf of Mexico.

THE HERITAGE part 1 First I would stir up your pure minds to reflect upon the greatness of the heritage of our people and our land. It will now be to our edification to examine how we became a people and &nation. Standing on the western shores of Europe 500 years ago, you could not see nor visualize a great continent that lays to the west; only what seemed to be an endless stretch of the Atlantic Ocean. Yet there was a great continent out there to the west. Now may I ask you, "Did Jesus Christ know of this North American Continent?" Your only answer could be, "Yes, of course He did." Let me ask another question, "Did Jesus Christ know that a great nation would be established here?" "Of course He did!" Still another please â€” "Did Jesus know this great nation (yet to be born) would be Christian from its beginning?" Of course He knew that, for He Himself is the author of that true walk with God which we call "Christian." From the inception of this nation, the peoples who colonized America had a burning co ...

I've found the Jodi Arias trial utterly compelling; alas, I haven't seen that much of the unmediated courtroom testimony, just bits and bobs HLN. Of all the sideshow clowns commenting on this trial, Susan Moss on N. GRACE is the worst. I'd love it if there was some kind of siege engine that could be employed to catapult her far out into the Atlantic Ocean.

Galway to Buffalo Weâ€™ve done it so often before weâ€™re kinda used to it, but itâ€™s still exciting and poignant to be leaving Ireland for America and, on the practical side of it, itâ€™s a *** long day. We met up at Oranmore, in the County Galway, at nine oâ€™clock in the morning, drove to Dublin Airport, Terminal 2. Did the long, patient check-in with all the big instrument flight cases, helped, as always, by the friendly Aer Lingus staff. These days itâ€™s a real bonus to have some of the old-style air-travel values alive and well in our national airline. Fair play Aer Lingus! Security: fill out the visa and customs forms: go through US Border Control preclearance down stairs: the last pint of Guinness: up the elevator to board the big green and silver bird whose job it is to take us across the Atlantic Ocean, all three thousand miles of it; never take it for granted. One day Iâ€™d love to cross its massive breadth by boat, to really see and feel its scale and power. Our first gig is in Buffalo - Up ...

Johannesburg - The story of Sixto Rodriguez, the greatest protest singer and songwriter that most people never heard of, is a real-life fairytale with a Hollywood finale. In his latest incarnation, the guitarist has unwittingly become a champion for the rights of wronged musicians. The Detroit construction worker whose albums flopped in the United States in the 1970s wants to know what happened to royalties in South Africa, where he unknowingly was elevated to rock star status. While Rodriguez toiled in the Motor City, white liberals thousands of miles across the Atlantic Ocean burdened by the horrors of the apartheid regime were inspired by his songs protesting the Vietnam War, racial inequality, abuse of women and social mores. Songs composed half a century ago that some equate to "inner-city poetry" still are relevant today: Like his poke at the pope's stance on birth control, and his plaints about corrupt politicians and bored housewives. Massive hits in SA In South Africa, they were massive and endur ...

Did you know that there are ancient burial and other chambers, plus stone structures within chambers, built to track the equinoxes, exactly like Newgrange in Co. Meath where Ruth comes from? The dimensions,building techniques and specifications are identical! These structures are in Pennsylvania and date from 3500 BC. It has been verified that they were built by the Irish, who had traveled to America, thousands of years before Columbus. It is also well known that the traveler, Saint Brendan, sailed to America in a hand built 'wattle' boat well before Columbus or any other European travelers. Back in1984 I remember that the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston exhibited a 'wattle' boat which modern day Irish people had built and sailed from Ireland to prove that St. Brendan's boat could have withstood the challenges of the Atlantic Ocean. It was the Irish people who actually discovered America and who had the mathematical ability and understanding of the Universe to build replicas of Newgrange, not only in Penns ...

On 25 February 1933, USS Ranger (CV 4), the US Navyâ€™s first true aircraft carrier, was launched. Commissioned in June 1934, she served in the Pacific until participating in Neutrality Sea Patrols in the Atlantic Ocean in the fall of 1939. She later participated in Operation Torch and Operation Leader, which attacked German shipping in Norwegian waters. Relocating to the Pacific in the summer of 1944, she helped train pilots for combat duty operating out of Pearl Harbor and San Diego. In October 1946, Ranger was decommissioned and sold for scrapping in January 1947. To read more about USS Ranger, please click here:

[Gloria's desk] The beautiful sights we see in Dubai could be within our borders in a matter of years. Last Wednesday, the Eko Atlantic City was dedicated by the government of Lagos State. Conceived by former Governor Bola Ahmed Tinubu in 2003 to check frequent ocean surge, Governor Raji Fashola has pursued the dream vigorously. The four square miles reclaimed from the Atlantic Ocean is expected to house over 400,000 residents and provide financial, commercial, residential and tourist accommodation with a state-of-the-art infrastructure. The project is expected to attract massive investment inflow into the country. Dubai was not built in a day. Here we go thenâ€¦ What happened to project Tinapa in Cross River State that came with the same promises?

Berber kingdoms Main articles: Numidia, Mauretania, and Garamantes As Carthaginian power waned, the influence of Berber leaders in the hinterland grew. By the 2nd century BCE, several large but loosely administered Berber kingdoms had emerged. Two of them were established in Numidia, behind the coastal areas controlled by Carthage. West of Numidia lay Mauretania, which extended across the Moulouya River in Morocco to the Atlantic Ocean. The high point of Berber civilization, unequaled until the coming of the Almohads and Almoravids more than a millennium later, was reached during the reign of Masinissa in the 2nd century BCE. After Masinissa's death in 148 BC, the Berber kingdoms were divided and reunited several times. Masinissa's line survived until CE 24, when the remaining Berber territory was annexed to the Roman Empire. Further information: Roman Numidia, Africa Province, Creta et Cyrenaica, and Roman Egypt Northern Africa under Roman rule. The Roman military presence of North Africa was relatively ...

Pioneers of Astronomy During the Seventh & eighth centuries C.E., Islam expanded west from Arabia across North Africa and into Spain and east as far as Afghanistan. Scholars in this vast area drew on a legacy of scientific research from Persia & Greece, which was largely influenced by Babylon & Egypt. Then, during the ninth century, important scientific texts were translated into Arabic, including the works of Greek astronomer Ptolemy. The Abbasid, whose dynasty streched from Afghanistan to the Atlantic Ocean, acquired Sanskrit texts from India, which contained a wealth of information about mathematics, astronomy, and the other sciences. Islam prized knowledge of astronomy. Why? One reason was related to their worship. Muslims believe that they should face Mecca when they pray, and astrnomers could pinpoint the direction of Mecca from any location. By the 13th century, some mosques even employed a professional astronomer, or muwaqqit, who helped worshippers pray in what they considered to be proper manner ...

continental drift, large-scale horizontal movements of continents relative to one another and to the ocean basins during one or more episodes of geologic time. This concept was an important precursor to the development of the theory of plate tectonics, which incorporates it. The idea of a large-scale displacement of continents has a long history. Noting the apparent fit of the bulge of eastern South America into the bight of Africa, the German naturalist Alexander von Humboldt theorized about 1800 that the lands bordering the Atlantic Ocean had once been joined. Some 50 years later, Antonio Snider-Pellegrini, a French scientist, argued that the presence of identical fossil plants in both North American and European coal deposits could be explained if the two continents had formerly been connected, a relationship otherwise difficult to account for. In 1908 Frank B. Taylor of the United States invoked the notion of continental collision to explain the formation of some of the worldâ€™s mountain ranges. The ...

BioShock (if it were written by me) By Hannah Speechly Â 1960 Mid-Atlantic Â They told me, â€œSon, you're special. You were born to do great things.â€ You know what? They were right. Â Â Eerie high-pitched screams pierced the air as Jack scrambled for the surface. The salt water was nauseating, and he was aching for air. As he sluggishly opened his eyes, he began to notice moving parts of engines, a purse, a necklace, a shoe... he swam up swiftly and gasped for air. He gradually turned his head, and he looked at the burning plane in awe. Flames burst everywhere, and he watched the remains of the plane glow in the golden blazes. Â Jack cautiously swam forward, anxious to see what else could possibly wait for him. The endless sea of the Atlantic Ocean was enough to drive one insane, but he knew he had to keep moving. He conscientiously examined the obliterated area surrounding him. However, the faint blue light in the distance, although camouflaged by the smoke and darkness of the night, caught his ey ...

Ask a Christian, "Does prayer really work?" The answer lies in this story. We don't hear it mentioned today, but at the time it was called the lay revival, simply because it started with one person, a businessman and not a priest or pastor. The lay revival of 1858, which affected the Western World for half a century, began when businessman Jeremiah Lanphier started a weekly prayer meeting. It met in a small room of the Old North Dutch Church in New York City. The group grew, then meetings were held daily. Several churches followed the pattern, and soon all public meeting places in the city were regularly packed. Within a few months 10,000 people gathered daily at noon for open prayer meetings in New York Streets. In two years, 2,000,000 converts entered American churches. Like a flood, this revival spread through the Hudson River Valley, on to Chicago, where Dwight Moody was just beginning his work with young people. Then it jumped the Atlantic Ocean to Ireland, Scotland, England, and Wales... the ...

As if to confirm some of the above, an article published in Science (August 1986), reported that the Shuttle Imaging Radar from the Space Shuttle had discovered previously unknown river valleys beneath the driest part of the Sahara. Through satellite imaging and on-site archeological investigations, it appeared as though the present day Nile had changed its course, once flowing across the Sahara, through Africa, and into the Atlantic Ocean! Only time will tell how many more of the readings historical claims regarding such places as Atlantis, ancient Egypt, and ancient Persia, will eventually be verified. The A.R.E./Edgar Cayce Foundation's recent satellite project was the first comprehensive analysis of all subsurface features around Bimini. The project covered 630 square miles and imaging was done via the IKONOS satellite. Via special processing, imaging was able to look at the seabed contours at a depth of approximately 75 feet. The precise location of all features that were identified is easily determi ...

Finished the first novel ... now I begin another ... here are the first two pages ... please let me know what you think... CHAPTER ONE Petra was not your everyday girl. She was born on the sun baked earth of a cassava farm in the low lying fields of the tropical forests of Umunnakwe. A sedate village in the eastern state of Anambra, which existed snug with the perennially flowing waters of the River Niger as it made its way towards the raging waves of the Atlantic Ocean. No one heard her piercing cry as she sucked in the hot air of the broiling afternoon, or witnessed her weakened mother singlehandedly cut the umbilical cord and wipe her naked body clean of the birth juices. No one saw the tiny Petra being carried gingerly on the cusp of her motherâ€™s elbow as she slowly walked back to the village with a basket of freshly harvested cassava expertly balanced on her head, while sweat poured like a light drizzle from her face and bare back. Her mother was a single parent and her dad was a victim of the frat ...

Three friends were traveling and went to a desert and were not getting any food. After a long search they got one Jack fruit and some bananas. They ate bananas at night and put the Jack fruit for morning breakfast. Next morning when they woke up and described what they dreamt at night. One is telling I went to 7th layer of the sky and saw nice young fairies were dancing besides me. Another one is telling that I went bottom of the Atlantic Ocean. One beautiful girl came and kissed me and told me that she is the Queen of the Sea. She touches my hands and whole night we ate, drank and made merry. Really fantastic. 3rd one is now describing what he dreamt and he said, â€œI saw one Black tall ghost, who came to me and chased me and ordered me to eat the Jack fruit. But I told him I have got two friends, without them I will not eat the Jack fruit. But the Ghost made me eat the Jack fruit and I ate it all. I tried to call you two, but one of you were in Mid sky and another was under the sea and having fun, so I ...

One of the Most Futuristic Predictions That Came True in 2012 4. The Earth Experiences its First True Superstorm Back in 1999, Art Bell and Whitley Strieber published a book titled The Coming Global Superstorm. It predicted that global warming would eventually result in sudden and catastrophic climatic effects â€” including the onset of unusually large storms. Now, 13 years later â€” although some are still loathe to admit it â€” the Atlantic Ocean experienced its first bona fide superstorm. Sandy was a colossal hurricane that occupied a space measuring 1.8 million square miles (4.6 million square kilometers), and stretched from the Mid-Atlantic to the Ohio Valley, and into Canada and New England. It may have been the first, but it certainly won't be the last.

My great Uncle Mario Picca passed away this morning. He is the last of his generation and leaves a great Italian American story of hard work, determination and success. He was from Molfetta Italy, and married to my grandmotherâ€™s sister Mary and as I grew up so close to them they really helped raise me. He taught himself English by reading the newspaper, he worked at Maxwell house for decades, he raised his 3 children in a 3 family brick house on Commercial Avenue in Cliffside NJ. He was a tremendous cook, promoted education for his children (all 3 have masters degrees), and ate fresh fish raw from the Atlantic Ocean decades before sushi was popular in America. He kept an impeccable house, magically kept 20 year old â€œthingsâ€ looking brand new, and grew the most beautiful fig tree in Cliffside. Recently, he told me a story about how he was once almost deported before he could get his final citizenship paperwork in order. I canâ€™t remember the year but Iâ€™ll try to recall what I can here.

Then across to Europe. It basically regulates the temperature of the ocean. Without this flow the Atlantic Ocean will cool down as well as our planet.

The Abilities and Re-sponsibilities of Moors . Moors have Obligations to each other, and others have obligations to Moors. Moors have a responsibility to the World, as demonstrated during (but not limited to) the era when civilization flourished as a result of their contributions and influences in Europe. Europe was originally inhabited by Moors, and was named Europa after Queen Europa, a Moorish Sister. Europe was a designation point where they (Caucasians) were taken to for a more suitable climate, and to â€œrope them inâ€, hence Eu-ropa. People were named after their accomplishments, and places were named after people and their accomplishments, to be recorded in heritage and history, just as the Roman General John Ciprius Afrikana, was named after his conquering and colonizing of Africa, the land that had already been divided by the Atlantic Ocean (Atlantis), along the East Coast which is where Lemuria (French Le= the, as in the Muurs, or Land of the Muurs) was /is located. That division is clear ...

Chef Randy O'B. Smith, like many culinary craftsmen, was fascinated from a young age by the art of preparing food. Living in Barbados, he cultivated that fascination.Today, heâ€™s Executive Chef at the Courtyard by Marriott Hotel in Paramaribo, the largest city in Suriname. This South American country, located at the northern part of the continent, is bordered by Guyana to its west, French Guiana to its east, Brazil to the south and the Atlantic Ocean on its north coast. Add its assorted colonial history and there's no doubt that Suriname is a Caribbean country rich in its diversity. This diversity is an integral part of this nation's culinary fabric.Â Â Smith tells us that his journey to this point has inspired a respect for Suriname's cultures and traditions. While he is making an impact sharing his culinary know-how, this Bajan chef shows us that he is also learning in an environment more colourful than he's ever experienced. The CCN is proud to end our profile series on a high note with Chef Smith. ...

These are the explanations most commonly heard pertaining to the historic-low water levels in the Lakes Michigan-Huron system. While these may be contributing factors, a report recently released by the Georgian Bay Association indicates the decline in water levels is tied to a hole in the St. Clair River caused by river bed mining near Port Huron. More than 2 billion gallons of water per day is being hemorrhaged out of the Lakes Michigan-Huron system, eventually making its way to the Atlantic Ocean. The report cites that this is more than triple what was originally believed, and the problem is far more serious than first thought. Why donâ€™t more people know about this problem? When recently asked at a Michigan Press Association meeting about what he plans to do about low water levels, Gov. Rick Snyder points to more dredging. There was no mention of the drainage hole at all â€” none! Why is this? Certainly he must be aware of a situation of such magnitude. Experts indicate fixing the hole comes with a hu ...

He never received a formal education, yet he lectured at Harvard. He was born in a gypsy tent, yet he was summoned to the White House to meet two presidents. Born in the Epping Forest outside of London in 1860, Rodney â€œGypsyâ€ Smith crisscrossed the Atlantic Ocean forty-five times, preaching the gospel to millions. Few evangelists have preached with more passion. His secret? Private prayer. More powerful than his preaching was his praying. Gypsyâ€™s secret was revealed to a delegation of revival seekers, who asked him how God could use them, just as he was using Gypsy. Without hesitation, Gypsy said, â€œGo home. Lock yourself in your room. Kneel down in the middle of the floor, and with a piece of chalk draw a circle around yourself. There, on your knees, pray fervently and brokenly that God would start a revival within that chalk circle.â€ - from The Circle Maker, by Mark Batterson

In April 1998, Elikia Mâ€™bokolo, wrote in Le Monde diplomatique. "The African continent was bled of its human resources via all possible routes. Across the Sahara, through the Red Sea, from the Indian Ocean ports and across the Atlantic. At least ten centuries of slavery for the benefit of the Muslim countries (from the ninth to the nineteenth)." He continues: "Four million slaves exported via the Red Sea, another four million through the Swahili ports of the Indian Ocean, perhaps as many as nine million along the trans-Saharan caravan route, and eleven to twenty million (depending on the author) across the Atlantic Ocean".

The Guardian News4/20 Lagos communities groan under gas flaring 4 minutes ago â€¢ Firm blames ordeal on damaged pipeline AJIDO, Imeke, Araromi and Agemuwo are rustic communities on the bank of the Atlantic Ocean, near Badagry, Lagos. They are areas in dire need of development through the presence of modern infrastructure. Just about when their prayers were heard, the development has come with a huge cost in terms of pollution, heat, noise and vibration coming from gas being flared by the West African Gas Pipeline Company (WAPCo). Indeed, the travails of host communities in gas-flaring areas of Niger Delta are now being replicated in the south west of the country - Badagry. About 170 million standard cubic feet of gas per day (MMscfd) is currently being flared in Ajido, Imeke, Araromi and Agemuwo areas of Badagry Local Council of Lagos State by WAPCo. The Guardian learnt that the gas flaring actually started around August last year and became very intense since the beginning of 2013. When The Guardian vis ...

OPPORTUNITA' IN ISLANDA (contattatemi per info) JOURNALISM AND PHOTOGRAPHY (REYKJAVIK) 30/04/2013 - 12/05/2013 Number of volunteers: 18 language: English Extra-Fee: EUR 180 Age: 18-70 In Reykjavik you can easily feel the pure energy at the heart of Iceland s capital city - whether it springs from the underground boiling thermal energy or radiates from the green scenery surrounding the city. Think of the qualities of a great city - fun, space, clean air, nature, culture - and Reykjavik has them in spades. Reykjavik offers both the features of a modern and innovative society and the marvellous traits of a unique natural landscape. The population of the Reykjavik Area is about 200,000. Reykjavik is spread across a peninsula offering a panoramic view of the mountains and the Atlantic Ocean from nearly every part of the city. In the summer, you can sit by the harbour at midnight and watch the sun dip slightly below the horizon before it makes its way up again.The world s northernmost capital is framed by the m ...

20130217 07:00Z Atlantic Ocean. The west side of the cape was calm as predicted, and the memories harkened of warnings not to raise additional sail too quickly because of the funneled winds from the mountains. I sailed several hours and got lined up on the vessel traffic system fairway but made 2kts. Engine on, sails down, motored to 11:00Z at Royal Cape Yacht Club. It was early Sunday morning - a sunny pleasant day. En route, Cape Town and its harbor were on display. Large freighters, mostly dark colors, sat motionless at anchor, white cruise ships plied toward their mark, and white and chrome motor-yachts moved about almost randomly, their wakes disturbing the stillness of the blue green sea. Beautiful white buildings and white homes perched on the steep sides of the semi-arid scrub-covered mountains that plunged right to the seashore - colorful cars could be seen driving on the beach roads. Small fishing vessels, some with families, moved about or gently rolled on the swell as knots were tied ...

The Lion I didn't know it at the time, but I have a spirit animal protector. I was about five years old. It was fall and a powerful nor-Easter, a storm coming in off of the Atlantic Ocean, roared over our town. Mom put us all to bed, my older brother Bruce in his own room across the hall, Karen and I on bunk beds in our shared bedroom. I enjoyed having the top bunk, being high in the air. Mom tucked us in and said to go to sleep; she would be leaving for work soon. Â I couldnt fall asleep. The storm grew violent, thunder booming, rattling the windows every few seconds. Lightning burst across the sky with giant violet and white fingers of fire reaching right outside my bedroom window, getting closer. The lilac tree a few feet away whipped around violently, bending to and fro as the wind pushed and pushed. Â I called out to my sister Karen, but she was fast asleep. I buried my head under the covers, but couldn't resist peeking out, fearing the loud crashing thunder storm, but fascinated by the beautiful l ...

Please, we need a Donald Trump to save this great vessel: SS United States is a luxury passenger liner built in 1952 for United States Lines designed to capture the trans-Atlantic speed record. Built at a cost of $78 million, the S.S.America is the largest ocean liner constructed entirely in the US, the fastest ocean liner to cross the Atlantic in either direction, and even in her retirement retains the Blue Riband given to the passenger liner crossing the Atlantic Ocean in regular service with the record highest speed. Her construction was partially subsidized by the US government, since she was designed to allow conversion to a troop carrier should the need arise. The S.S. United States operated uninterrupted in transatlantic passenger service until 1969. Since 1996 she has been docked at Pier 82 on the Delaware River in Philadelphia. Rust is eating away at this once proud lady. She has served this nation in times of peace and times of war and now she waits - waits for a saviour as cancerous rust eats i ...
