Loading ...East Coast will get less extreme weather events but it will switch places with the West coast. West coast South America can see hurricane risk in.Mexico and flooding in US. North of America can see droughts all the way to BC and forest fire risks so have to teach campers to make sure any fires are out before they leave and should anyway. Australia too will be dryer with drought risks.
The young woman killed by the gator was from California and worked in Florida.
Turns out her boyfriend did everything to save her and get her to shore. Got her arm loose then the gator grabbed her other arm. 911 did not give instructions of stopping the bleeding. Both arms gone she couldn’t help herself. She bled out before help came. Her boyfriend did everything he knowingly could.
There was a clue they joked about prior to the attack. They saw air bubbles in the water minutes prior to the attack.
Fyi

Hi Treefrog
Yeah I know where there’s water there could be a gator that’s the problem. 4 attacks with one death in two weeks doesn’t seem rare to a non local lol
Just passing through might be one thing but splashing around might be another. That can attract sharks thinking it’s a dying fish.
They may not hunt you but they could be waiting for you to step or fall in your fare game. They do hunt your pets . Why people walk their dogs next to them then be surprised when they leao out and grab their dog I’ll never know. There’s probably hundreds of avoided attacks.
I wouldn’t want to swim in that green still water that probably full of things like EColi with Ferrets prehistoric giant lizards with big teeth because that’s their territory. Just like we react if they go up to houses why shouldn’t they.
Surfing is another thing. Perhaps they’d be more of a threat if they hunt you.
There’s probably much to learn from those prehistoric creatures. Like fighting bacteria. I do hope they studied there’s so they know what antibiotics to start a bite victim on right away.
What I am surprised is with all those gators around and all the bites they haven’t taught the locals how to drive them off and first aide, pressure points and how to apply a tourniquet correctly. That and perhaps they should each carry a large bandana to use as a pressure bandage or tourniquet if needed and something to twist it with. It might have saved that one young woman’s life recently along with her boyfriend if he would if helped her fight it off.
Florida has recorded four unprovoked alligator attacks during a busy two-week span this summer, including one fatal incident. [1, 2]

treefrog, if you come to Oz, remember,
salt water crocodiles are not alligators. Fresh water ones, maybe, and they are smaller than salties, and certainly will run rather than fight. But salties love humans.
Here we have a peaceful creek in northern Queensland. With seven salties in it. Entering the water will cost you fines up to $10,000, and possibly a lot more than money.
p.s. they also roam the beaches.

Remarkable onboard footage from a Ukrainian Yak-52 backseat gunner shooting down Russian Shahed attack drones from an open cockpit with his rifle.
goldi,
i grew up swimming in lakes that had gators. everyone who grew up in florida did. gators are afraid of humans, and naturally avoid them. gator/human attacks are extremely rare and almost always involve gators who have lost their fear of humans by being fed by damnyankees who didn’t know better.
easy test to see if a florida body of water may have gators:
…is it wet?
Treefrog
No gators?
96 f forecast today…
…time to head for the swimming hole.
water is crystal clear, 70 – 72 f year round.

Probably know the market being pushed by pre elections but it getting a little more cautious. He thinks PMs will go up one more time before a market crash. This was before the war on oil heated up.
Nem earnings
What talking heads fail to caution about is looking beyond their interest to the whole picture as best as they can with what little information they have. That even if a company is doing good and will be around for awhile it’s how people see that market or sector as a whole that matters more. Maybe not forever but at that time. But when that sector does move it can move fast. So it’s the descression on a investor if they want to wait or get in early while their waiting. Being natural it’s more a concern to want to know where support is before they buy.

extremely disheartening day in the PM’s…..especially so on the heels of a positive NEM earnings report……
Mr. Copper – in part
This is a deep rabbit hole. Check out The Project for a New America Century. PNAC documents.
The wars you’re talking about were planned in the 90’s. 9/11 was the false flag they created to get the American people behind it.
Are you playing with ETF’s??? Then you’re playing with Iron Pyrite…Fools Gold…. in the rigged Casino…..
Better get the real thing, in hand, while you can….Cause when the lights go out, if you can’t feel it, you don’t own it. Just remember, it was your own choice! SNG!
President Eisenhower’s remarks about the military industrial complex in his farewell address
Comment: Were they responsible for the Invasion of Iran? And Iraq and Afghanistan, and all the others?
Found on ChatGPT
President Dwight D. Eisenhower warned about the growing power of what he called the “military-industrial complex” in his farewell address on January 17, 1961.
The key passage was:
“In the councils of government, we must guard against the acquisition of unwarranted influence, whether sought or unsought, by the military-industrial complex.”
He continued:
“The potential for the disastrous rise of misplaced power exists and will persist.”
And then:
“We must never let the weight of this combination endanger our liberties or democratic processes. We should take nothing for granted.”
He also warned that the nation had become permanently involved in a huge defense establishment and arms industry:
“This conjunction of an immense military establishment and a large arms industry is new in the American experience.”
Eisenhower’s broader point was that defense spending and military preparedness were necessary, but the enormous permanent alliance between the Pentagon, defense contractors, and political power could become so influential that it might distort national priorities and threaten democratic government.
Interestingly, he also warned about the growing influence of science and government funding, saying:
“The prospect of domination of the nation’s scholars by Federal employment, project allocations, and the power of money is ever present—and is gravely to be regarded.”
His speech is often remembered mainly for “military-industrial complex,” but his warning was broader: he was concerned about power becoming concentrated in large institutions—military, industrial, scientific, and governmental.
