Shock News : The Rowers Say That Ice Is Blocking Their Route

The limiting factor for us – so far anyhow – is not the ice choking the route ahead but rather the wind strafing it.

A somewhat similar crime event broke out Tuesday night in Hollywood that Los Angeles police believe was organized via social media to take advantage of the LAPD’s redeployment of officers to protests and marches in other parts of the city in the wake of George Zimmerman’s acquittal in the shooting death of Trayvon Martin.

Evidence That Zimmerman Is A Racist

Holder is out to prove that Zimmerman is a racist, based on five critical pieces of information :

  1. Martin was black
  2. NBC news spliced some audio together in an attempt frame Zimmerman
  3. Obama says that Trayvon looks like his kid
  4. Sharpton and Jackson want to lynch an Hispanic
  5. The Bill of Rights has no meaning in the Obama White House

Why doesn’t the press use this picture?

Makes sense. Zimmerman (the half Hispanic half Jew) killed an unarmed black child because he hated Hispanics and Jews. It had nothing to with the fact that Martin was trying to kill him.

Alaska’s Most Famous Glacier Retreated Eight Feet Per Day Between 1794 And 1879

As you enter Glacier Bay in Southeast Alaska you will cruise along shorelines completely covered by ice just 200 years ago.

Explorer Captain George Vancouver found Icy Strait choked with ice in 1794, and Glacier Bay was barely an indented glacier. That glacier was more than 4000 ft. thick, up to 20 miles or more wide, and extended more than 100 miles to the St.Elias Range of mountains.

By 1879 naturist John Muir found that the ice had retreated 48 miles up the bay. By 1916 the Grand Pacific Glacier headed Tarr inlet 65 miles from Glacier Bay’s mouth.

The glacier that filled Glacier Bay during the Little Ice Age began its retreat from the mouth of the bay more than 200 years ago and has exposed a magnificent fjord system about 100 km long. The massive glacier retreated past Sitakaday Narrows ~190 years ago, retreated past Whidbey Passage ~160 years ago, and reached the upper end of the main bay by 1860 (~140 years ago). There the glacier bifurcated and the multibeam data set terminates. The amount of fine sediment reaching the lower bay is largely restricted to local runoff and plankton debris. In addition, the currents through Sitakaday Narrows can be as fast as 7 kt, scouring the bottom of fine sediment. So a long history of morphologies is clearly visible on the bottom.
