SINK HOLES

NUMBERS 16:30-32
30  But if the LORD make a new thing, and the earth open her mouth, and swallow them up, with all that appertain unto them, and they go down quick into the pit; then ye shall understand that these men have provoked the LORD.
31  And it came to pass, as he had made an end of speaking all these words, that the ground clave asunder that was under them:
32  And the earth opened her mouth, and swallowed them up, and their houses, and all the men that appertained unto Korah, and all their goods.

NUMBERS 26:10
10  And the earth opened her mouth, and swallowed them up together with Korah, when that company died, what time the fire devoured two hundred and fifty men: and they became a sign.

ISAIAH 28:18-19
18  And it shall come to pass, that he who fleeth from the noise of the fear shall fall into the pit; and he that cometh up out of the midst of the pit shall be taken in the snare: for the windows from on high are open, and the foundations of the earth do shake.
19  The earth is utterly broken down, the earth is clean dissolved, the earth is moved exceedingly.

Wildfire near Yosemite surges, prompts evacuations


FRESNO, Calif. (AP) — A wildfire outside Yosemite National Park nearly quadrupled in size Thursday, prompting officers to warn residents in a gated community to evacuate their homes and leading scores of tourists to leave the area during peak season.California Gov. Jerry Brown declared a state of emergency due to the huge fire, one of several blazes burning in or near the nation's national parks and one of 50 major uncontained fires burning across the western U.S.As flames approached an area of Pine Mountain Lake with 268 homes in the afternoon, deputies went door-to-door to deliver the news and to urge people to leave, Tuolumne County Sheriff's Department Sgt. Scott Johnson said.The evacuations are not mandatory, although Johnson stressed that the fire, smoke and the potential for power outages pose imminent threats."We aren't going to drag you out of our house, but when we are standing in front of you telling you it's an advisory, it's time to go," he said.Fire officials said the blaze, which started Saturday, had grown to more than 99 square miles and was only 1 percent contained Thursday, down from 5 percent a day earlier. Two homes and seven outbuildings have been destroyed.While the park remains open, the blaze has caused the closure of a 4-mile stretch of State Route 120, one of three entrances into Yosemite on the west side, devastating areas that live off of park-fueled tourism.Officials also have advised voluntary evacuations of more than a thousand other homes, several organized camps and at least two campgrounds. More homes, businesses and hotels are threatened in nearby Groveland, a community of 600 about 5 miles from the fire and 25 miles from the entrance of Yosemite.
"Usually during summer, it's swamped with tourists, you can't find parking downtown," said Christina Wilkinson, who runs Groveland's social media pages and lives in Pine Mountain Lake. "Now, the streets are empty. All we see is firefighters, emergency personnel and fire trucks."Though Wilkinson said she and her husband are staying put — for now — many area businesses have closed and people who had vacation rental homes are cancelling plans, local business owners said."This fire, it's killing our financial picture," said Corinna Loh, whose family owns the still-open Iron Door Saloon and Grill in Groveland. "This is our high season and it has gone to nothing, we're really hurting."Loh said most of her employees have left town. And the family's Spinning Wheel Ranch, where they rent cabins to tourists, has also been evacuated because it's directly in the line of fire. Two outbuildings have burned at the ranch, Loh said, and she still has no word whether the house and cabins survived."We're all just standing on eggshells, waiting," Loh said.The governor's emergency declaration finding "conditions of extreme peril to the safety of persons and property" frees up funds and firefighting resources and helps Tuolumne County in seeking federal disaster relief.Park officials said the fire has not impacted the park itself, which can still be accessed via state Routes 140 and 41 from the west, as well as State Route 120 from the east side.Yosemite Valley is clear of smoke, all accommodations and attractions are open, and campgrounds are full, said park spokesman Scott Gediman. During summer weekdays, the park gets up to 15,000 visitors."The fire is totally outside the park," Gediman said. "The park's very busy, people are here. There's no reason that they should not come."The Yosemite County Tourism Bureau based in Mariposa has been helping tourists displaced by the fire to find new accommodations in other park-area towns, said director Terry Selk.In Yellowstone National Park, five wildfires have been burned about 18 square miles of mostly remote areas on the 25th anniversary of the infamous 1988 fires that burned more than 1,200 square miles inside Yellowstone, or more than a third of the park.The vast areas that burned that year remain obvious to anybody who drives through. The trees in the burn areas are a lot shorter.This summer's fires haven't been anywhere near that disruptive. The biggest fire in Yellowstone, one that has burned about 12 square miles in the Hayden Valley area, for a time Tuesday closed the road that follows the Yellowstone River between Fishing Bridge and Canyon Village.Anybody who needed to travel between Fishing Bridge and Canyon Village faced a detour through the Old Faithful area that added 64 miles to the 16-mile drive.By Wednesday, the road had reopened. Later that day, half an inch of rain fell on the fire.Park officials had been making preliminary plans to evacuate Lake Village, an area five miles south of the fire with a hotel, lodge, gas station and hospital. Any threat to that area appeared less likely now.A few trails and parking areas along the Yellowstone River remained closed in case the fire flares up again and the area needs to be evacuated, park officials said.Smoke from the fires has been blowing into Cody, a city of about 10,000 people 50 miles east of Yellowstone, for the past couple weeks.If anything, though, visitors have been more curious about this year's fires than threatened, said Scott Balyo, executive director of the Cody Country Chamber of Commerce."People from the East Coast or the Midwest where this isn't common are very interested, certainly, in the way the fires look, the way the smell," he said. "There's a lot of educational opportunities along with it."This year's Yellowstone fires are being allowed to burn to help renew and improve the ecosystem.A lightning-sparked fire in a remote area of Colorado's Rocky Mountain National Park burned more than 615 acres in June but had no impact on tourists — other than backcountry trail closures — or tourism-dependent towns adjacent to the park.Crews allowed the Big Meadows Fire to burn beetle-killed spruce before containing the blaze. The fire was overshadowed by wildfires that destroyed nearly 500 homes near Colorado Springs and a 170-square-mile complex of fires on national forest land in Colorado's southwestern mountains.___Associated Press writers Mead Gruver in Cheyenne, Wyo., and Jim Anderson in Denver contributed to this report.

DEAD ANIMALS

HOSEA 4:1-3
1 Hear the word of the LORD, ye children of Israel: for the LORD hath a controversy with the inhabitants of the land,(EARTH) because there is no truth, nor mercy, nor knowledge of God in the land.
2  By swearing, and lying, and killing, and stealing, and committing adultery, they break out, and blood toucheth blood.
3  Therefore shall the land mourn, and every one that dwelleth therein shall languish, with the beasts of the field, and with the fowls of heaven; yea, the fishes of the sea also shall be taken away.

ZEPHANIAH 1:2-3
2  I will utterly consume all things from off the land, saith the LORD.
3  I will consume man and beast; I will consume the fowls of the heaven, and the fishes of the sea, and the stumblingblocks with the wicked; and I will cut off man from off the land, saith the LORD. 

Tons of dead fish discovered in Rio lake

Aug. 22, 2013   |  

Dead fish float in Tijuca Lake in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, on Thursday. / By Renata Brito, AP
RIO DE JANEIRO (AP) - About 10 tons of dead fish have been discovered in a Rio de Janeiro lake that sits next to the city's future Olympic park.Environmental officials are investigating the fish kill. Biologists say it was likely caused by raw sewage making its way into the water, as has happened before.Rio has many problems with water pollution. Many of the waterways near where Olympic events are to be held have been found to be polluted.Rio's Cedae sewage company says in a Thursday statement that all of its treatment plants are operating normally in the region where the dead fish were found. But it says it's sending out teams to see if any pipes are leaking.

CNE cronut burger stand stays shut as total ill nears 100

Toronto health officials investigate stand, but source of suspected food poisonings not confirmed-CBC News-Posted: Aug 22, 2013 8:44 AM ET-Last Updated: Aug 22, 2013 11:22 PM ET-

The Epic Burger location at the CNE is closed as Toronto Public Health investigates reports that people who ate at the annual fair were feeling sick. The Epic Burger location at the CNE is closed as Toronto Public Health investigates reports that people who ate at the annual fair were feeling sick. (Trevor Dunn/CBC)The company behind the headline-making cronut burger at the Canadian National Exhibition in Toronto is standing by its record even as officials investigate nearly 100 cases of food poisoning.Epic Burgers and Waffles posted a statement on its Facebook page Thursday, defending its product and promising co-operation with an ongoing investigation by Toronto Public Health."In the time that we've been operating at the CNE, we have had a clean bill of health and all our staff have been fully trained in food safety," the statement reads in part. "We buy our products from only the top suppliers and we've never had any issues in the past, nor do we wish to have any in the future. We take health and safety very seriously. It's very important to us that our food is not only enjoyed, but also trusted."Thirty-four people initially reported symptoms of food-borne illness after eating at the annual fair on Tuesday. Paramedics treated 12 people and recommended that five be taken to hospital. A cronut burger stand at the annual fair remains closed while health officials investigate to determine whether the food played a role in the illnesses."Based on information to date, Toronto Public Health has concentrated our investigation around one food premise located at the CNE. However, all possible sources of illness are being investigated," said Dr. Lisa Berger, associate medical officer of health. "Overall risk to the general public is low."Some of those who became sick told health officials they had eaten the trendy cronut hamburger, which features a croissant-doughnut mix for a bun.
The food outlet, which was subject to a three-hour inspection Wednesday morning, was closed by the CNE, not Toronto Public Health, as a precaution, although health officials have yet to confirm the source of the illnesses.The result of Toronto Public Health tests on food samples from the Epic Burgers and Waffles stand won't be available until Friday at the earliest.

Health expert suspects toxin in food

Based on news reports of patients' symptoms, Tim Sly, a professor at Ryerson University’s school of occupational and public health, said he suspects the illnesses were caused by a toxin in the food due to the short time between when it was eaten and when patients reported feeling sick."With short onset times, you're looking at something that may have grown in the food and survived the cooking," he said in an interview Thursday on CBC Radio's Metro Morning."I'd put my money on a poison or toxin that has grown in the food, and then it doesn't matter if the food is cooked. It's still going to be there."While Sly said most of these types of food contamination are not fatal, they cause discomfort for patients."You're not sure which end to put over the toilet," he said.The CNE, commonly called the Ex, opened last Friday and runs through Sept. 2. It typically draws more than a million visitors each year.In recent years, the Ex has offered a number of unusual food items, including deep-fried butter and bacon milkshakes.

THE FIRST JUDGEMENT OF THE EARTH STARTED WITH WATER-IT ONLY MAKES SENSE THE LAST GENERATION WILL BE HAVING FLOODING
GENESIS 7:6-12
6 And Noah was six hundred years old when the flood of waters was upon the earth.
7 And Noah went in, and his sons, and his wife, and his sons’ wives with him, into the ark, because of the waters of the flood.
8 Of clean beasts, and of beasts that are not clean, and of fowls, and of every thing that creepeth upon the earth,
9 There went in two and two unto Noah into the ark, the male and the female, as God had commanded Noah.
10 And it came to pass after seven days, that the waters of the flood were upon the earth.
11 In the six hundredth year of Noah’s life, in the second month, the seventeenth day of the month, the same day were all the fountains of the great deep broken up, and the windows of heaven were opened.
12 And the rain was upon the earth forty days and forty nights.
GOD PROMISED BY A RAINBOW-THE EARTH WOULD NEVER BE DESTROYED TOTALLY WITH A FLOOD AGAIN.BUT FLOODIING IS A SIGN OF JUDGEMENT.

600,000 still homeless after Philippine floods

An estimated 600,000 people in the Philippines remained at temporary shelters or with relatives on Friday after days of heavy rain that killed 20, officials said.A day after floods ebbed in the capital Manila, stagnant pools of water and high tides in coastal areas prolonged the misery in the central Luzon plains to the north, civil defence official Josefina Timoteo told AFP."These are mainly farmers and fisher folk who still cannot return to their homes or resume work. We are still supplying their needs," said Timoteo, the civil defence chief for the region."These are low-lying regions and this happens every year. It is a way of life for many of them and the local governments are well-organised to provide relief."Seasonal monsoons dumped more than a month's rain in Manila and surrounding provinces between Sunday and Wednesday, the state weather service said, submerging about half the capital in floodwaters.The rains were worsened by Tropical Storm Trami, which hit China on Thursday after hovering off the northern Philippines earlier in the week.The government's National Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Council said 200,000 people were still in government-run shelters Friday, with 400,000 others staying with friends or relatives and likewise receiving food rations and other emergency aid.The council raised the death toll to 20 as receding floodwaters led to the discovery of two bodies in Cavite province, south of Manila.Most of those who have yet to return home are from the central Luzon region, where 481 villages remain under floodwaters up to a metre (3.3 feet) deep, Timoteo said.The weather is improving but the evacuation centres, mostly schoolbuildings, are expected to start emptying only next week, she added.As a result, classes are still suspended in those areas, she said.The health department has stocked up medicines at evacuation camps to prevent the spread of epidemics, she said, adding there had been no reports of widespread diseases.
The floods wreaked 97.3 billion pesos' ($2.2 billion) worth of damage to infrastructure and crops, the government says.The Philippines endures about 20 major storms or typhoons annually, generally in the second half of the year and many of them deadly.
