To be fair, there are so many mountain ranges in this area of the US it's always a seismically active spot. Not generally 6.5 EQ active but active nonetheless.
"We don't hear that much about Idaho earthquakes because they are fairly unusual," Bodin said. "The last one that was this big was back in 1983. It was in Borah Peak."
Prayers.... Robert F. Kennedy's Granddaughter and Her Son Are Missing in Chesapeake Bay Boating Accident Robert F. Kennedy’s granddaughter Maeve Kennedy Townsend McKean and her 8-year-old son, Gideon Joseph Kennedy McKean, disappeared in a boating accident on Thursday. The Washington Post reported that the two disappeared on Thursday after they hopped into a canoe to chase down a ball that fell into the Chesapeake Bay. A concerned witness called authorities and reported that boaters were “seen struggling to return to shore in a canoe” near Herring Bay. According to the coast guard, the winds clocked in at 30 mph and the waves were estimated at 2-3 feet. The pair disappeared Thursday and as of Friday there is still no sign of them. Two boaters who went missing in the Chesapeake Bay near Annapolis on Thursday evening have been identified as Maeve Kennedy Townsend McKean, 40, and her 8-year-old son Gideon Joseph Kennedy McKean. David McKean confirmed his wife and son disappeared on Thursday afternoon while in a canoe on the Chesapeake Bay. In a brief interview with The Washington Post, he said the family had gathered at a waterfront house owned by his wife’s mother, Kathleen Kennedy Townsend, in Shady Side, Md. At about 4 p.m., children were kicking a ball back and forth in a yard and the ball went into the water. He said his wife and son “popped into a canoe to chase it down. They just got farther out than they could handle and couldn’t get back in.” The ‘Kennedy curse’ lives on following the assassinations of JFK and RFK. Last year, RFK’s granddaughter Saoirse Kennedy Hill died of an accidental drug overdose at the Kennedy’s Cape Cod compound.
This is near where I live. They have found the canoe The winds were extreme for that time of evening yesterday, coming out of the northwest. That would push the canoe away from the Western Shore of the Bay. The little boy looks exactly like a Kennedy in a photo. Prayers
Just can't make this stuff up. https://www.foxnews.com/world/china-un-human-rights-council-coronavirus-response China wins seat on UN Human Rights Council panel despite troubling record, response to coronavirus China has won a seat on a panel on the controversial U.N. Human Rights Council, where it will help vet candidates for important posts -- despite its decades-long record of systematic human rights abuse that the U.S. has said fueled the coronavirus pandemic. Jiang Duan, minister at the Chinese Mission in Geneva, was appointed to the U.N. Human Rights Council’s Consultative Group -- where he will serve as the representative of the Asia-Pacific states. He will serve as one of five representatives for blocs of countries and is joined by delegates from Spain, Slovenia and Chad. China has been criticized over the way it handled the coronavirus outbreak, with the U.S. and others accusing the communist country of a secretive approach that punished doctors, threw out reporters, suppressed information and ultimately downplayed the seriousness of the virus -- leaving the world blindsided and unable to adequately respond to what later became a global pandemic. "It could have been contained to that one area in China where it started," President Trump, who has called the virus the "Chinese virus," said at a press briefing last month. "And certainly the world is paying a big price for what they did." CHINA HONORS CORONAVIRUS VICTIMS WITH 3 MINUTES OF REFLECTION, 'WAIL OF GRIEF' U.N. Watch, a Geneva-based human rights watchdog, first reported the development in Geneva, and reacted furiously to the move, saying it was “absurd and immoral” for the U.N. to allow the Chinese regime a key role in selecting human rights officials. “Allowing China’s oppressive and inhumane regime to choose the world investigators on freedom of speech, arbitrary detention and enforced disappearances is like making a pyromaniac into the town fire chief,” said Hillel Neuer, U.N. Watch’s Executive Director said. NIKKI HALEY ACCUSES WHO OF TAKING 'CHINA'S WORD' ON CORONAVIRUS TRANSMISSION The body said that China will now play a central role in picking at least 17 human rights investigators, including those looking at freedom of speech, enforced disappearance and arbitrary detention -- all rights that the Chinese regime is said to have violated. The Human Rights Council too has come under intense scrutiny for its membership. The U.S. left the council in 2018. Then-U.N. Ambassador Nikki Haley called it “a protector of human rights abusers, and a cesspool of political bias." CLICK HERE TO GET THE FOX NEWS APP It came under fresh criticism last year when Venezuela, a country plagued by poverty and mass human rights abuses under the regime of dictator Nicolas Maduro, was elected to the Council. The country took its seat on the body earlier this year, along with other controversial picks such as Sudan and Libya. Somalia, Eritrea, Cuba, Saudi Arabia and China also have been elected to the council.

HMMM....More "controlled" false flags?? Seems storms have a new characteristic these days....they "stall" in particular areas! Meteorologists closely monitoring massive Atlantic Ocean storm churning off East Coast A massive storm is churning and has stalled over the western Atlantic Ocean, just offshore of the East Coast -- and it may acquire some tropical characteristics as it blasts New England with wind, cold air, rain and even wet snow late this week. The overall structure of the storm is complex. Even though the system produced cold rain and even occasional wet snow on its periphery, its core has warm characteristics, like that of a tropical storm. "There is probably less than a 30% chance the storm could be dubbed a subtropical storm at some point through Saturday night," AccuWeather Hurricane Expert Dan Kottlowski said, adding that if the system does not acquire enough tropical characteristics by Sunday, it probably will not be dubbed subtropical. "There might be a short period of time where this feature might take on the appearance of a hybrid system but it probably will not last long enough for it to be named," he added. There are some similarities to the storm this week and the "Halloween Storm or Perfect Storm" of autumn 1991. The storm in 1991 stalled for several days off the coast of New England spanning late October and early November. The current setup is missing a key ingredient to that of 1991, which is interaction by Hurricane Grace. MORE: https://www.accuweather.com/en/hurr...ic-ocean-storm-churning-off-east-coast/713026
I got an email notice from the site an hour ago re: a reply by Earth To Angels; except nothing I try is making that message appear. Also a bit strange, all of a sudden! And there aren't even more deaths from the seasonal flu. Coming deaths somehow equal more "contagion"? "The next two weeks are extraordinarily important," said Birx. "This is the moment to not be going to the grocery store, not going to the pharmacy, but doing everything you can to keep your family and your friends safe and that means everybody doing the six-feet distancing, washing their hands."
