But two items-fragments of agate that Hilprecht\u003Cbr \/\u003Ebelieved were rings from the Temple of Bel at Nippur-defied\u003Cbr \/\u003Eidentification. Tired and frustrated, the Assyriologist assigned the two\u003Cbr \/\u003Epieces to his \"unclassified\" category and reluctantly put the finishing\u003Cbr \/\u003Etouches on his book.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EThat night, Hilprecht dreamed that a tall\u003Cbr \/\u003Efigure dressed in priestly Babylonian garb took the scholar to the\u003Cbr \/\u003Etreasure chamber of what Hilprecht immediately recognized as the Temple\u003Cbr \/\u003Eof Bel. The figure then proceeded to explain that Hilprecht's two\u003Cbr \/\u003Epuzzling pieces of agate were, in fact, two portions of the same ring\u003Cbr \/\u003Eand, due to a shortage of agate, it had been divided to form earrings\u003Cbr \/\u003Efor a statue of the god Ninib.

The obvious\u003Cbr \/\u003Equestion is, why did YHWH reveal himself to the patriarchs as El\u003Cbr \/\u003EShaddai?

The caldera is located in the northwest  corner of Wyoming, in which the vast majority of the park is contained.  The major features of the caldera measure about 34 by 45 miles (55 by  72 km). The caldera formed during the last of three supereruptions over  the past 2.1 million years. First came the Huckleberry Ridge eruption  2.1 million years ago, which created the Island Park Caldera and the  Huckleberry Ridge Tuff. Next came the Mesa Falls eruption 1.3 million  years ago, which created the Henry's Fork Caldera and the Mesa Falls  Tuff. Finally came the Lava Creek eruption 640,000 years ago, which  created the Yellowstone Caldera and the Lava Creek Tuff.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EThe last  full-scale eruption of the Yellowstone Supervolcano, the Lava Creek  eruption which happened nearly 640,000 years ago, ejected approximately  240 cubic miles (1,000 km3) of rock, dust and volcanic ash into the sky.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EGeologists  are closely monitoring the rise and fall of the Yellowstone Plateau,  which measures on average 0.6 inches (1.5 cm) yearly, as an indication  of changes in magma chamber pressure.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EThe upward movement of the  Yellowstone caldera floor between 2004 and 2008 — almost 3 inches (7.6  cm) each year — was more than three times greater than ever observed  since such measurements began in 1923. From mid-summer 2004 through  mid-summer 2008, the land surface within the caldera moved upward as  much as 8 inches (20 cm) at the White Lake GPS station. By the end of  2009, the uplift had slowed significantly and appeared to have stopped.  In January 2010, the USGS stated that \"uplift of the Yellowstone Caldera  has slowed significantly\" and that uplift continues but at a slower  pace. The U.S. Geological Survey, University of Utah and National Park  Service scientists with the Yellowstone Volcano Observatory maintain  that they \"see no evidence that another such cataclysmic eruption will  occur at Yellowstone in the foreseeable future. Recurrence intervals of  these events are neither regular nor predictable.\" This conclusion was  reiterated in December 2013 in the aftermath of the publication of a  study by University of Utah scientists finding that the \"size of the  magma body beneath Yellowstone is significantly larger than had been  thought.\" The Yellowstone Volcano Observatory issued a statement on its  website stating,\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E\" Although fascinating, the new findings do not  imply increased geologic hazards at Yellowstone, and certainly do not  increase the chances of a 'supereruption' in the near future. Contrary  to some media reports, Yellowstone is not 'overdue' for a supereruption.  \"\u003Cdiv class=\"blogger-post-footer\"\u003Ehttp:\/\/www.therealsigns.com\/feeds\/posts\/default?alt=rss\u003C\/div\u003E"},"link":[{"rel":"replies","type":"application/atom+xml","href":"http:\/\/sinais2012.blogspot.com\/feeds\/1914704682675500262\/comments\/default","title":"Post Comments"},{"rel":"replies","type":"text/html","href":"http:\/\/sinais2012.blogspot.com\/2015\/05\/yellowstone-supervolcanohigh-alert.html#comment-form","title":"0 Comments"},{"rel":"edit","type":"application/atom+xml","href":"http:\/\/www.blogger.com\/feeds\/5797146311676443576\/posts\/default\/1914704682675500262"},{"rel":"self","type":"application/atom+xml","href":"http:\/\/www.blogger.com\/feeds\/5797146311676443576\/posts\/default\/1914704682675500262"},{"rel":"alternate","type":"text/html","href":"http:\/\/sinais2012.blogspot.com\/2015\/05\/yellowstone-supervolcanohigh-alert.html","title":"Yellowstone Supervolcano.High Alert"}],"author":[{"name":{"$t":"The Real Signs of Time"},"uri":{"$t":"http:\/\/www.blogger.com\/profile\/06470483535381422850"},"email":{"$t":"noreply@blogger.com"},"gd$image":{"rel":"http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail","width":"16","height":"16","src":"https:\/\/img1.blogblog.com\/img\/b16-rounded.gif"}}],"media$thumbnail":{"xmlns$media":"http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/","url":"https:\/\/img.youtube.com\/vi\/3krjG5fUtEk\/default.jpg","height":"72","width":"72"},"thr$total":{"$t":"0"}},{"id":{"$t":"tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5797146311676443576.post-6907451263863288045"},"published":{"$t":"2015-05-17T17:23:00.002-07:00"},"updated":{"$t":"2016-06-02T19:16:04.476-07:00"},"category":[{"scheme":"http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#","term":"EARTH CHANGES"}],"title":{"type":"text","$t":"Africa’s Mysterious Lakes From Nowhere"},"content":{"type":"html","$t":"\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Ch2\u003E\u0026nbsp;\u003Cdiv class=\"separator\" style=\"clear: both; text-align: center;\"\u003E\u003Ca href=\"http:\/\/3.bp.blogspot.com\/-n8do37WIbKE\/VWCeWl7yEUI\/AAAAAAAABw0\/Hp0iPMj1hME\/s1600\/africa_lake.jpg\" imageanchor=\"1\" style=\"margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;\"\u003E\u003Cimg border=\"0\" height=\"480\" src=\"https:\/\/3.bp.blogspot.com\/-n8do37WIbKE\/VWCeWl7yEUI\/AAAAAAAABw0\/Hp0iPMj1hME\/s640\/africa_lake.jpg\" width=\"640\" \/\u003E\u003C\/a\u003E\u003C\/div\u003E\u003C\/h2\u003E\u003Ch2\u003EAfrica’s Mysterious Lakes From Nowhere\u003C\/h2\u003E\u003Cdiv class=\"details\"\u003E\u003Cdiv class=\"cl\"\u003E\u003C\/div\u003E\u003C\/div\u003EThe natural world is an ever changing, ever shifting beast. Mountains  rise, valleys form, lakes are created or disappear, glaciers meander  across the landscape; the face of our planet is malleable, ever moving.  While most of these changes take place over millions of years, there are  those bizarre instances when there are suddenly geographical features  that mysteriously appear out of nowhere. The appearance of sinkholes and  mysterious holes in Siberia are well documented, but what are perhaps  more little known are the mysterious appearance of not one, but two  lakes in Africa that appeared seemingly from nowhere, and have held the  locals enthralled.\u003Cbr \/\u003EOne of the mysterious lakes appeared in seemingly overnight in one of  the places one would least expect a lake to be; in the middle of a  searing, parched desert in Tunisia. In August of 2014, shepherds in the  remote, arid landscape of the Gafsa region of central Tunisia were out  toiling in the hot summer sun when they stumbled across a site that must  surely have stunned them into silence; a lake glimmering in the heat  where none had ever existed before. It was a man by the name of Mehdi  Bilel who first spotted the bizarre sight in a desert canyon, of which  he later said to journalists:\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cblockquote\u003EAfter several long hours on the road without a break, I  honestly thought I was hallucinating. I don’t know much about science  and thought it was magic, something supernatural.\u003C\/blockquote\u003EThe mystery lake, which is around a hectare in area and has an  average depth of 10 to 18 meters, has indeed been seen as some sort of  miracle by the local tribes, who are unaccustomed to seeing such large  bodies of water in the harsh, drought-ridden region. Due to the lake’s  impressive size, people in the area set up a makeshift beach, which  locals call \u003Ci\u003ELac de Gafsa\u003C\/i\u003E, or “Gafsa Beach,” and many flocked  there to swim and cool off in the region’s 40C heat. It is truly a  remarkable sight to see people diving, swimming, and paddling about on a  beach in the middle of one of the hottest and most arid regions in the  world.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cdiv class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" id=\"attachment_44634\"\u003E\u003Ca class=\"fancybox\" href=\"http:\/\/mysteriousuniverse.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/Gafsa-beachv2.jpg\" rel=\"fancybox\"\u003E\u003Cimg alt=\"The Gafsa Beach\" class=\"size-large wp-image-44634\" src=\"http:\/\/mysteriousuniverse.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/Gafsa-beachv2-570x428.jpg\" height=\"428\" width=\"570\" \/\u003E\u003C\/a\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cdiv class=\"wp-caption-text\"\u003EThe Gafsa Beach\u003C\/div\u003E\u003C\/div\u003EIt is not known exactly when the lake was formed, as the region is so  sparsely populated, but it is mostly agreed that it came into being  rather rapidly. The reason is also not particularly well-understood. One  theory is that a minor earthquake could have fractured and underground  aquifer, allowing water to well up to the surface, but no aquifer that  could be responsible has been found. Others maintain that it is simply  rainwater that collected in the canyon, although the lake is thought to  have formed in the middle of a drought and the area receives very little  rainfall to begin with. So far, geologists have not been able to figure  out what exactly is going on here, and the origin of the lake remains a  mystery. Most locals believe that the lake was created by supernatural  means, as a blessing to the people eking out a living here in the  unforgiving terrain.\u003Cbr \/\u003EHowever, it could be more that this mysterious lake is a curse. Its  waters started as a clear, crystalline blue and have since slowly turned  to a muddy green due to a bloom of algae, which could be potentially  poisonous. The presence of so much algae also means that the water is  not being replenished and could become a cesspool of bacteria and  disease. There is also some concern that the water of the lake could be  contaminated with phosphates from mining. The region has been heavily  mined for phosphate since it was discovered in the southern Tunisian  region in 1886, and Tunisia is now the fifth largest exporter of  phosphate in the world, with the town of Gafsa being the center of the  industry. The potential presence of phosphates and possibly radioactive  residue in the water of the lake could mean that it could be  carcinogenic, which has prompted Gafsa’s Office of Public Safety to  issue a warning about the dangers of swimming there. Nevertheless, such  warnings have not dissuaded the throngs of people that still come here  to stave off the extreme desert heat.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cdiv class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" id=\"attachment_44637\"\u003E\u003Ca class=\"fancybox\" href=\"http:\/\/mysteriousuniverse.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/lake-desert-tunisia-660x495.jpg\" rel=\"fancybox\"\u003E\u003Cimg alt=\"The Tunisian mystery lake\" class=\"size-large wp-image-44637\" src=\"http:\/\/mysteriousuniverse.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/lake-desert-tunisia-660x495-570x428.jpg\" height=\"428\" width=\"570\" \/\u003E\u003C\/a\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cdiv class=\"wp-caption-text\"\u003EThe Tunisian mystery lake\u003C\/div\u003E\u003C\/div\u003ETunisia is not the only home to mysteriously appearing lakes. In  Nigeria, yet another lake also appeared at the Ameke Nanchi community,  in the country’s Enugu State, and it has gone on to be seen as a place  of magical healing by locals. Allegedly, on November 11, 2014, local  herdsmen heard a booming explosion and when they went to investigate the  source of the noise found that water was inexplicably gushing from the  ground. The herdsmen hailed the sight as a miracle prophesized by local  legends and collected some of the water, which they reportedly brought  to a blind friend who was allegedly healed by it. Meanwhile the lake  grew in size until it had reached around 170 meters in diameter. It is  still not understood exactly what caused the water to well up or what  the origin to the alleged explosion could have been.\u003Cbr \/\u003EWord of the miraculous healing power of the lake caused large numbers  of desperate people to flock from all around the country to its muddy  waters in the hopes of being cured of all manner of ailments. Many who  have made the journey here have reported being cured of numerous  physical ailments, including blindness, deafness, disease, and injuries,  among others. One paralyzed man who bathed in the water claimed that  its restorative powers allowed him to walk once again, and similar tales  abound. These claims have had a huge influence on the superstitious  populace of this poverty-stricken region, and hundreds of people a day  are said to come here to bathe in the filthy water of the lake. The  lake, which has come to be known by many names such as the “Pool of  Bethsaida,” the “River Jordan,” “Ogbongwu,” and others, has even started  to attract people from neighboring countries, like Ghana, Togo, and the  Benin Republic. There are so many people of all ages arriving here from  all over, that many locals have seen it as a business opportunity, with  food vendors, people selling plastic containers for the water, and even  motorcycle operators and commercial taxis, all setting up shop near the  mystery lake to take advantage of the influx of visitors.\u003Cbr \/\u003EThose who come to the lake for its purported miraculous powers will  bathe here, drink the water, and even cut off bark and stems from the  surrounding vegetation with which to make healing teas. Some people even  bring photographs of loved ones and pray for them here. Although this  is the largest the lake has ever been, it is said that this is not the  first time the lake has miraculously appeared. It allegedly first formed  in 1992, after which it subsequently disappeared again. The Prime  Minister of Ameke-Nachi, Chief Dominic Onuigbo, said that the lake was  even older than that, and had appeared three times in the past 80 years,  always in the driest, hottest times. The legends of the area say that  if one is righteous and scratches at the ground here in prayer, the  healing water will magically begin to flow from seemingly nowhere.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cdiv class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" id=\"attachment_44638\"\u003E\u003Ca class=\"fancybox\" href=\"http:\/\/mysteriousuniverse.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/1502906_Lake_In_Enugu_jpgbd1ba5be9795e212f520b879f90ac03c.jpeg\" rel=\"fancybox\"\u003E\u003Cimg alt=\"The Nigerian mystery lake\" class=\"size-large wp-image-44638\" src=\"http:\/\/mysteriousuniverse.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/1502906_Lake_In_Enugu_jpgbd1ba5be9795e212f520b879f90ac03c-570x428.jpeg\" height=\"428\" width=\"570\" \/\u003E\u003C\/a\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cdiv class=\"wp-caption-text\"\u003EThe Nigerian mystery lake\u003C\/div\u003E\u003C\/div\u003EFor all of the talk of magical healing properties, the Nigerian  mystery lake has become a cause of concern for authorities and health  officials. The water here is thought to be filthy, with people urinating  and defecating on its shores and thousands of unwashed bodies bathing  in the stagnant, fetid water, making it more or less a disease soup. It  is thought that an epidemic could be caused by people contracting a  disease such as cholera, among many others, and carrying it back to one  of the many far-flung locales they come from. The pool is also a very  attractive breeding ground for mosquitos, and could potentially be  ground zero for a horrific malaria outbreak. The complete lack of any  safety precautions at the lake and the superstitious belief that the  magical water here could not possibly cause disease only compound the  problem. Time will tell if this lake turns out to be one of healing or  one of death.\u003Cbr \/\u003EOn this planet of constant geographical change over eons of time, it  is always a wonder when the landscape changes abruptly overnight. It is a  reminder that we are far from a complete understanding the inner  workings of this world we live on. We can only look at a sudden  mysterious appearance such as that of a lake in the middle of a desert  and scratch our heads.

In   China, India, Iran and Pakistan the consequences would be even   worse, with up to 10,000 deaths per million residents, according   to USGS seismologist David Wald. \u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cb\u003EREAD MORE:\u003C\/b\u003E \u003Ca href=\"http:\/\/rt.com\/news\/252965-earthquake-nepal-india-damage\/\" target=\"_blank\"\u003EOver 1,300 killed after 7.9-magnitude earthquake  strikes Nepal\u003C\/a\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EWhile earthquakes are natural disasters, the   \u003Ci\u003E“consequences are very much man-made,”\u003C\/i\u003E says Jackson, who   is also the lead scientist of the Earthquakes Without Frontiers   project. \u003Ci\u003E“It’s buildings that kill people, not   earthquakes,”\u003C\/i\u003E he added, explaining that \u003Ci\u003E\"large urban   populations are now concentrated in vulnerable places, which is   why so many recent earthquakes look like bull’s eye targeting of   cities.\"\u003C\/i\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cdiv class=\"article_img_footer\"\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003C\/div\u003E\u003C\/div\u003E\u003Cdiv class=\"blogger-post-footer\"\u003Ehttp:\/\/www.therealsigns.com\/feeds\/posts\/default?alt=rss\u003C\/div\u003E"},"link":[{"rel":"replies","type":"application/atom+xml","href":"http:\/\/sinais2012.blogspot.com\/feeds\/1300461372282805154\/comments\/default","title":"Post Comments"},{"rel":"replies","type":"text/html","href":"http:\/\/sinais2012.blogspot.com\/2015\/04\/deadly-nepal-quake-was-long-predicted.html#comment-form","title":"0 Comments"},{"rel":"edit","type":"application/atom+xml","href":"http:\/\/www.blogger.com\/feeds\/5797146311676443576\/posts\/default\/1300461372282805154"},{"rel":"self","type":"application/atom+xml","href":"http:\/\/www.blogger.com\/feeds\/5797146311676443576\/posts\/default\/1300461372282805154"},{"rel":"alternate","type":"text/html","href":"http:\/\/sinais2012.blogspot.com\/2015\/04\/deadly-nepal-quake-was-long-predicted.html","title":"Deadly Nepal quake was long predicted"}],"author":[{"name":{"$t":"The Real Signs of Time"},"uri":{"$t":"http:\/\/www.blogger.com\/profile\/06470483535381422850"},"email":{"$t":"noreply@blogger.com"},"gd$image":{"rel":"http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail","width":"16","height":"16","src":"https:\/\/img1.blogblog.com\/img\/b16-rounded.gif"}}],"media$thumbnail":{"xmlns$media":"http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/","url":"https:\/\/3.bp.blogspot.com\/-8d0VH8jOaNM\/VWCkZIdYE-I\/AAAAAAAABxM\/rL3WneXR-cM\/s72-c\/AA.jpg","height":"72","width":"72"},"thr$total":{"$t":"0"}},{"id":{"$t":"tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5797146311676443576.post-5840728979211813980"},"published":{"$t":"2015-04-25T16:03:00.002-07:00"},"updated":{"$t":"2016-06-02T18:15:25.135-07:00"},"title":{"type":"text","$t":"7.8 Earthqauke in Napel India the NIBIRU Effect April 25th 2015"},"content":{"type":"html","$t":"\u003Ciframe allowfullscreen=\"\" frameborder=\"0\" height=\"415\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/Io1EMUudacU\" width=\"660\"\u003E\u003C\/iframe\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cdiv class=\"separator\" style=\"clear: both;

Pakistan Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif  offered \"all possible help\" that Nepal may need. A senior  mountaineering guide, Ang Tshering, said an avalanche swept the face of  Mt. Everest after the earthquake, and government officials said at least  30 people were injured. Tshering of the Nepal Mountaineering  Association said the avalanche apparently occurred between the Khumbu  Icefall, a rugged area of collapsed ice and snow, and the base camp  where most climbing expeditions have their main camps. While  details are unclear with communications limited to the Everest region,  Tshering said the avalanche did not appear to have hit the base camp  itself. As the ground began to shake, several buildings collapsed in the center of the capital, the ancient Old Kathmandu, including centuries-old temples and towers, said resident Prachanda Sual. Among  them was the Dharahara Tower, one of Kathmandu's landmarks built by  Nepal's royal rulers in the 1800s and a UNESCO-recognized historical  monument. It was reduced to rubble and there were reports of people  trapped underneath. The Kathmandu Valley is densely populated with nearly 2.5 million people, and the quality of buildings is often poor. Dhany Osman, an editor with \u003Ci\u003EThe Straits Times\u003C\/i\u003E of Singapore said he was at Kathmandu's Tribhuvan International Airport when the quake struck. \"As  bits of the ceiling began to fall, passengers who were waiting for  their flights began to panic and started running out of the terminal,  with some tripping over each other,\" \u003Ca href=\"http:\/\/www.straitstimes.com\/news\/asia\/south-asia\/story\/nepal-quake-passengers-shove-and-trip-over-each-other-they-flee-airport-t#sthash.NYaHQp7n.dpuf\" title=\"http:\/\/www.straitstimes.com\/news\/asia\/south-asia\/story\/nepal-quake-passengers-shove-and-trip-over-each-other-they-flee-airport-t#sthash.NYaHQp7n.dpuf\"\u003Ehe writes\u003C\/a\u003E.  \"Despite the nearest exit door being just 10 (yards) away, a group of  Nepali men smashed open a glass panel and climbed out of it. I tried  telling people around me to calm down but they kept shoving each other  to get out.\" While the extent of the damage and the scale of the  disaster are yet to be ascertained, the quake will likely put a huge  strain on the resources of this poor country best known for Everest, the  highest mountain in the world. The economy of Nepal, a nation of 27.8  million people, is heavily dependent on tourism, principally trekking  and Himalayan mountain climbing. Robin Trygg, a climber, was in a  base camp on the Cho Oyu mountain at an altitude of 5,600 meters (18,480  feet) when he felt the quake. \"We were sitting in the tent and  drinking tea when all of a sudden the earth began shaking. We didn't  understand what happened,\" he told the Swedish news agency TT by  telephone. In Kathmandu, dozens of people were gathered in the  parking lot of Norvic International Hospital, where thin mattresses were  spread on the ground for patients rushed outside, some wearing hospital  pajamas. A woman with a bandage on her head sat in a set of chairs  pulled from the hospital waiting room. Doctors and nurses had hooked up some patients to IV drops in the parking lot, or were giving people oxygen. The  U.S. Geological Survey revised the magnitude from 7.5 to 7.9 but then  lowered it to 7.8. It said the quake hit at 11:56 a.m. local time (0611  GMT) at Lamjung. It was the largest shallow quake since the 8.2 temblor  off the coast of Chile on April 1, 2014. An earthquake's power  increases by 10 times with each increase in the number of its scale. A  magnitude 7 quake is capable of widespread and heavy damage while an 8  magnitude quake can cause tremendous damage. This means Saturday's  earthquake — the same magnitude as the one that hit San Francisco in  1906 — was 22 times more powerful than the 7.0 quake that devastated  Haiti in 2010. A Swedish woman, Jenny Adhikari, who lives in  Nepal, told the Swedish newspaper Aftonbladet that she was riding a bus  in the town of Melamchi when the earth began to move. \"A huge  stone crashed only about 20 (yards) from the bus,\" she was quoted as  saying. \"All the houses around me have tumbled down. I think there are  lot of people who have died,\" she told the newspaper by telephone.  Melamchi is about 30 miles northeast of Kathmandu. Nepal suffered  its worst recorded earthquake in 1934, which measured 8.0 and all but  destroyed the cities of Kathmandu, Bhaktapur and Patan. \u003Ci\u003EContributing Associated Press\u003C\/i\u003E\u003Cdiv class=\"blogger-post-footer\"\u003Ehttp:\/\/www.therealsigns.com\/feeds\/posts\/default?alt=rss\u003C\/div\u003E"},"link":[{"rel":"replies","type":"application/atom+xml","href":"http:\/\/sinais2012.blogspot.com\/feeds\/1443914060880323725\/comments\/default","title":"Post Comments"},{"rel":"replies","type":"text/html","href":"http:\/\/sinais2012.blogspot.com\/2015\/04\/doug-stanglin-usa-today-856-a.html#comment-form","title":"0 Comments"},{"rel":"edit","type":"application/atom+xml","href":"http:\/\/www.blogger.com\/feeds\/5797146311676443576\/posts\/default\/1443914060880323725"},{"rel":"self","type":"application/atom+xml","href":"http:\/\/www.blogger.com\/feeds\/5797146311676443576\/posts\/default\/1443914060880323725"},{"rel":"alternate","type":"text/html","href":"http:\/\/sinais2012.blogspot.com\/2015\/04\/doug-stanglin-usa-today-856-a.html","title":"Hundreds dead as 7.8 magnitude quake rocks Nepal"}],"author":[{"name":{"$t":"The Real Signs of Time"},"uri":{"$t":"http:\/\/www.blogger.com\/profile\/06470483535381422850"},"email":{"$t":"noreply@blogger.com"},"gd$image":{"rel":"http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail","width":"16","height":"16","src":"https:\/\/img1.blogblog.com\/img\/b16-rounded.gif"}}],"thr$total":{"$t":"0"}},{"id":{"$t":"tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5797146311676443576.post-5599656823086440930"},"published":{"$t":"2015-04-25T06:07:00.002-07:00"},"updated":{"$t":"2016-06-02T19:17:31.616-07:00"},"category":[{"scheme":"http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#","term":"EARTH CHANGES"},{"scheme":"http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#","term":"EARTHQUAKES"},{"scheme":"http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#","term":"NATURAL DISASTERS"}],"title":{"type":"text","$t":"7.8 magnitude earthquake slams Nepal, more than 700 dead, authorities say"},"content":{"type":"html","$t":"\u003Cscript height=\"433px\" src=\"http:\/\/player.ooyala.com\/iframe.js#pbid=218d3da5eeb24e93a601526d4d3e8750\u0026amp;ec=RndDVxdDrwKrGJFS81if4jKRrvIun9B9\" width=\"670px\"\u003E\u003C\/script\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EKATHMANDU, Nepal (CNN) — A 7.8 magnitude earthquake centered less  than 50 miles from Kathmandu rocked Nepal with devastating force early  Saturday, killing at least 77\u0026nbsp;people — and probably more — in Nepal’s  capital city, authorities said.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cdiv style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003E\u0026nbsp;\u003Cimg alt=\"People free a man from the rubble of a destroyed building\" data-mycapture-src=\"http:\/\/www.gannett-cdn.com\/media\/2015\/04\/25\/USATODAY\/USATODAY\/635655327194812274-EPA-NEPAL-EARTHQUAKE-72581148.JPG\" src=\"http:\/\/www.gannett-cdn.com\/-mm-\/5528e1b9d4b53b4aeff6fe9dfa8943c9fc177f79\/c=231-0-3865-2732\u0026amp;r=x383\u0026amp;c=540x380\/local\/-\/media\/2015\/04\/25\/USATODAY\/USATODAY\/635655327194812274-EPA-NEPAL-EARTHQUAKE-72581148.JPG\" itemprop=\"url\" width=\"540\" \/\u003E\u003C\/div\u003EHistoric buildings in Kathmandu lay in rubble on the ground.
