The damage to the Oroville Dam Spillway is DANGEROUS. 185,000 cubic feet/s of Feather River water is coming into Lake Oroville and only 41,000 CFS is going out. The emergency 2nd Spillway may have to be used before morning, to avoid dam overflow. We need that water, and Oroville, including the dam.

The 10th - the dam is 96.7% full, 5’ from the top. The broken spillway does not carry water along it all the way, the water is diverted outward about ½ way down. DS 2/10/17 Late 2/10/17 The dam is now 98.8% full. With so much rainwater entering, the damaged spillway can only remove much less than that. The rains have ceased today, but forecasts indicate more. How full can it get? ABC News 6:35 pm PST. 46 of 48 of Sacramento’s Weir’s are open. Overflow water is pouring through now. Dry, but more rain is expected. D.

052014 Santa Maria discovered…

”In 1492 Columbus sailed the ocean blue”, or so you may have remembered. Well, he quit the Santa Maria when reaching the New World, after it sank about 12 miles off of Haiti. This was announced in a New York boat club recently, a few days ago. The Santa Maria discovery may have been named too soon, though armaments, wooden ship items of the era and planking was found where it had been recorded by Christopher Columbus, then. It is believed to be so. Found from a written record, this was released. . Who knows what remnants of that time will be recovered? Visions of pirate bones, treasure and doubloons swim in our collective heads. This important discovery has the government involved.

The ''Santa Maria''?

http://kcra.com/article/14-incredible-photos-depict-problems-at-lake-oroville/8775076?src=app

Check these photos of the Oroville Dam and both spillways. They are revealing to the nature of the powerful force unleashed by dam waters.

The recent February rains caused so much flooding of the Feather River that the incredible amounts of water reached the top of the highest dam in America, at 901’. Officials increased the flow into the main Spillway from about 50,000 CFS to 100,000 CFS Sunday, to release full Lake Oroville waters, but that wasn’t enough.

Flooding occurred on Sunday in the Emergency Spillway, which was damaged, and DWR issued an evacuation notice to 188,000 residents of the Oroville Dam downstream area. Many were given the 1 hour notice.

Roads were packed, to the Evacuation Centers that had been set up. Residents exhibited extreme patience as numbers felt the crunch in leaving so quickly.

The new 2017-2022 administration will promote their Businessman President, forget government support of the Constitution, and institute the business process in government. Anarchy will prevail unless they understand that the people are supported by the government laws, and they must support that. Also, by being the richest President, unlike Obama, he will forget the poor, social programs, and rules supporting that. He will also pay attention to the rich and institute 'rules for the rich' in government law. He is forgetting he is the son of an immigrant, but not that he made his fortune here, and even made it to the highest office in the land. One more thing. He has his 'America First' policy. He is cutting America off from the world in The Mexican Wall, making businesses come back to America, build in America, and put heavy import taxes on foreign businesses already here.

Trapping Planets Holding Water

Trapping Planets Holding Water

Scientists say it’s possible five Earth-sized planets orbiting Trappist-1, an ultra-cool dwarf star located 39 light years away, contain “significant amounts of water.” An international team of astronomers used the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) to measure the amount of ultraviolet (UV) radiation hitting all seven Trappist-1 exoplanets. The phenomenon is important because low-energy UV radiation…

Be Clear

    The Scientologists have a great idea. ‘Clearing’ is done to remove occlusions from your mind. It supposedly takes away all stress. It can apply in another part of your life, in another way. 

    This is not Scientology, it’s common sense. You can clear your life’s stress by removing all troubling matter out. This provides ‘peaceful’ experiences that can be much more desired. Having no stress…
