(Tribune News Service) People continue to pine for answers after last week’s horrific condo collapse in Surfside, Fla. It may be weeks or months before the actual cause is known — but that doesn’t stop non-experts coming up with their own hypotheses.

One pervasive question some observers have is if the U.S. Navy “shock tests” of a new warship off the Florida coast on June 18 may have triggered the tragedy a few days later, at approximately 1:30 a.m. on June 24. Ponce Inlet is roughly 250 miles north of Surfside.

That's also what they said about TWA flight 800 years ago. But they can't seem to recreate the wire spark cause they claim it was. Knew a guy that worked as a flight mechanic for TWA St. Louis hub. They had proof of being shot down but the Government said it wasn't them, that it was a wiring fault in the wings fuel tank.

Good Lord... a half a million dollar bail for fireworks!

Cejas’s bail was set at $500,000. Chief Moore said the suspect had a 10-year-old brother with him, and police will be pursuing child endangerment charges.

US left Afghan airfield at night, didn’t tell new commander

“In one night, they lost all the goodwill of 20 years by leaving the way they did, in the night, without telling the Afghan soldiers who were outside patrolling the area,” said Afghan soldier Naematullah, who asked that only his one name be used.

Within 20 minutes of the U.S.’s silent departure on Friday, the electricity was shut down and the base was plunged into darkness, said Raouf, the soldier of 10 years who has also served in Taliban strongholds of Helmand and Kandahar provinces.

The sudden darkness was like a signal to the looters, he said. They entered from the north, smashing through the first barrier, ransacking buildings, loading anything that was not nailed down into trucks.

KABUL, AFGHANISTAN—In what officials said was the "only way" to move on from what has become a "sad and unpleasant" situation, all 100,000 U.S. military and intelligence personnel crept out of their barracks in the dead of night Sunday and quietly slipped out of Afghanistan.

U.S. commanders explained their sudden pullout in a short, handwritten note left behind at Bagram Airfield, their largest base of operations in the country.

"By the time you read this, we will be gone," the note to the nation of Afghanistan read in part. "We regret any pain this may cause you, but this was something we needed to do. We couldn't go on like this forever."

 

That's officially known as the "Charlie Harper escape plan".

 

It never ceases to amaze me the kind of money some people are willing to spend just to own the most trivial of things ... I guess it's all about perception:

This is called "stuffing" where unscrupulous contractors will poor concrete over debris such as tires and old construction material to use less concrete. By the time something goes wrong the warranty and builder are long forgotten. Always be present when you are having concrete poured.
