The 1700 Event: People often confuse fault lines, but the massive magnitude 9.0 earthquake that struck the Pacific coast on January 26, 1700, happened on the 1700 Cascadia earthquake subduction zone, not the San Andreas Fault Scientists learned about the 1700 Cascadia quake using 1700 Cascadia Subduction Zone Earthquake written records of an "orphan tsunami" in Japan, ghost forests of dead trees along the Pacific Northwest coast, and native oral traditions.The San Andreas Fault is located in California, not the Pacific Northwest, but the region's actual major threat is the Cascadia Subduction Zone, which is roughly 326 years overdue for a major rupture San Andreas Fault: This is primarily a California fault line running roughly 750 miles from the Salton Sea in the south up to Cape Mendocino in northern California. The northern section last ruptured significantly in 1906, making it about 120 years past that specific event, though recurrence intervals vary Cascadia Subduction Zone (CSZ): This 600-mile fault lies off the coast of the Pacific Northwest (from Northern California up to British Columbia). It produces magnitude 9.0+ megathrust earthquakes How "Overdue" is Cascadia?Last Rupture: January 26, 1700.Recurrence Interval: Geological records show full-margin earthquakes happen roughly every 200 to 500 years.Current Status: Having gone ~326 years without a full rupture, the region sits squarely inside its window for the next major event. Scientists estimate roughly a 10% to 14% chance of a full-margin megathrust quake in the next 50 years, and a ~37% chance for a smaller (magnitude 7.1+) cluster or upper-plate event.

Old-fashioned divinity candy is a light, cloud-like Southern confection made by streaming hot sugar syrup into whipped egg whites and folding in chopped pecans IngredientsGranulated sugar: 2¼ cupsLight corn syrup: ½ cupWater: ½ cupSalt: ⅛ teaspoonEgg whites: 2 large (at room temperature)Vanilla extract: 1 teaspoonChopped pecans: ½ cup to 1 cup InstructionsPrep your station: Line large baking sheets with parchment paper or waxed paper.Boil the syrup: In a saucepan, combine the sugar, water, corn syrup, and salt. Cook over medium heat, stirring until the sugar dissolves. Then, cook without stirring until the mixture reaches 260°F (127°C) on a candy thermometer.Whip the egg whites: Just before the syrup reaches the target temperature, beat your room-temperature egg whites in a stand mixer on high speed until stiff peaks form.Combine slowly: Remove the hot syrup from the heat. With the mixer running on high, very slowly stream the hot syrup into the egg whites. This should take about 2 full minutes.Beat until set: Continue beating on high until the mixture holds its shape, loses its glossy sheen, and becomes matte/stiff (usually 5 to 10 minutes).Add mix-ins: Quickly stir in the vanilla extract and chopped pecans.Drop and dry: Working quickly with two greased spoons or a small scoop, drop rounded tablespoonfuls onto the prepared paper. Let them dry and set completely at room temperature (which can take anywhere from a few hours to overnight depending on humidity). ( TO MAKE DIFFERENT ADD CANDY OR ANYTHING YOU LIKE )

Roast an old-fashioned turkey by covering the breast with thin slices of salt pork or bacon to keep the meat moist, roasting it at a moderate temperature, and browning the skin at the end. Ingredients1 whole turkey (12 to 14 pounds), neck and giblets reservedKosher salt and freshly ground black pepper1/4 pound salt pork, rind removed and cut into thin slices (or thick-cut bacon)1 large onion, quartered2 stalks celery, choppedFresh herbs (sage, thyme, and rosemary sprigs)Kitchen twine InstructionsPrep the Oven and Bird: Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C). Clean the turkey, remove the giblets, and pat the dry interior and exterior thoroughly with paper towels. Season the cavity generously with salt and pepper, then stuff with the onion, celery, and fresh herb sprigs.Truss and Lard: Tie the turkey legs together with kitchen twine and tuck the wing tips underneath the body. Lay the thin slices of salt pork or bacon directly over the entire turkey breast. This traditional "larding" technique melts rich fat slowly over the white meat to prevent it from drying out.Roast Low and Slow: Place the turkey on a rack in a roasting pan, breast-side down (or breast-side up if you prefer traditional modern browning). Roast at 325°F for roughly 2 to 2.5 hours, until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the breast reaches about 130°F (54°C).Crisp the Skin: Remove the pan from the oven and increase the temperature to 450°F (230°C). Carefully lift off and discard the salt pork slices. If the bird was breast-side down, gently flip it breast-side up. Return to the hot oven for 30 to 45 minutes, until the skin is deep golden brown and crisp, and a thermometer reads 160°F (71°C) in the breast and 175°F (79°C) in the thigh.Rest and Carve: Transfer the roasted turkey to a large cutting board and let it rest uncovered for 20 to 30 minutes before carving so the juices settle. Use the leftover pan drippings to whip up a classic homemade giblet gravy (i use cooking bags ,it makes the turkey more juicey and moist and you dont have to bast it all the time, buy a turkey cooking bag at the grocery store and you put 4 tablespoons of cooking oil in it and about a half cup of flour and you hold the opening close and shake the bag to put the oil and flour all over the inside of the cooking bag, and then you place the turkey in the bag and i use 4 butter cubes and i always use real butter and i place that in the cavity of the turkey add water about 4 cups of water in the bag maybe a little more and i always buy turkey rup spices to put on top of the turkey but before that i put oil on top of the turkey in the turkey bag all over the turkey then turkey rub spices them i close the bag and pock 4 holes in the top and put in the oven. now this actually cooks the turkey a little faster .

A skinwalker is a malevolent, shapeshifting witch from Navajo Culture who can transform into, possess, or disguise themselves as an animal. What is a Skinwalker?The Name: In the Navajo language, a skinwalker is called yee naaldlooshii, which translates to "by means of it, it goes on all fours". Origins: According to tradition, they are humans—often corrupt practitioners or witches who use manipulative magic—rather than supernatural monsters. They stand as the absolute antithesis of traditional Navajo cultural values and healing practices they are rather nice people till one day some one steals there lives and they the accussers have all hell to pay They can turn into animals such as coyotes, wolves, bears, foxes, and owls, typically by wearing the pelt or skin of that creature. This transformation allows them to move swiftly, spy on people, and spread harm or disease. Many Navajo people are deeply reluctant to discuss skinwalkers with outsiders—or even among themselves. Superstition: There is a widespread belief within the culture that openly speaking about or naming these malevolent entities can draw their attention or bring bad luck Pop culture depictions (such as in movies, books, or internet folklore) often misrepresent or sensationalize these sacred tribal beliefs, which many Indigenous people find deeply disrespectful. Yes, skinwalkers in Navajo folklore can be female, though traditional stories and accounts more frequently describe them as male About SkinwalkersThe Name: In the Navajo language, a skinwalker is called yee naaldlooshii, which translates to "by means of it, he goes on all fours".Who They Are: They are not monsters or cryptids by original definition. They are human witches who use dark magic for evil purposes.Abilities: They can shape-shift into animals like wolves, coyotes, foxes, or bears, often by wearing the skin or pelt of that animal.How They Become One: A person must go through a secret initiation that requires a terrible act, such as killing a close family member Traditional teachings state that a skinwalker can be either male or female.Frequency: Historical and oral accounts note that most suspected or described witches in the culture were male rather than female, but female practitioners do exist in the lore. Cultural SensitivityPrivate Tradition: Many Navajo (Diné) people prefer not to discuss skinwalkers with outsiders, and traditional belief holds that speaking about them can invite bad luck or draw their attention Respect: Indigenous writers and community members often ask outsiders to respect these serious cultural beliefs rather than treat them like fictional internet monsters

Native American mythology consists of diverse oral traditions rooted in the natural world, deep spiritual connections to animals, and sacred creation accounts that varied significantly across hundreds of independent nations and regionsOral Tradition: Stories were passed down across generations by specialized elders, historians, and spiritual leaders rather than written down Mythology, history, practical survival, and sacred rituals were interwoven strands that defined a tribe's identity and moral order. The Living Natural World: Landforms, celestial events, and weather were seen as animated by powerful spirits or ancestral beings Tricksters (Coyote, Raven, and Rabbit): Figures like Coyote in western/plains tribes or Raven in Pacific Northwest traditions shape-shifted, broke rules, and used humor to teach vital lessons about humility, balance, and consequences The Thunderbird and Water Monster: Widely shared across Woodland and Plains regions, the Thunderbird was a powerful sky spirit causing thunder, while underwater monsters were often depicted as horned serpents representing deep, unpredictable aquatic forces Spider Woman: Revered in Southwest traditions (such as Hopi and Navajo) as a creator and earth goddess who helped weave life, light, and the structure of the universe into existence Emergence Accounts: Many Southwest and Plains peoples (like the Navajo and Hopi) hold emergence myths, describing how humanity and living beings climbed upward through successive, changing lower worlds into the current brightly lit world Earth Diver and Animal Creators: In many Eastern Woodland and Iroquois (Hodenosaunee) traditions, creation began when a sky-world entity fell, and water animals (such as a muskrat or turtle) dived to bring up the earth that formed the continents Pacific Northwest tribes explained major geological features—like the creation of the Bridge of the Gods near Cascade Locks or the behaviors of local volcanic peaks like Mount Hood (Wyeast) and Mount Adams (Pahto)—through dramatic accounts of ancestral spirits and rivalries.Earth Diver and Animal Creators: In many Eastern Woodland and Iroquois (Hodenosaunee) traditions, creation began when a sky-world entity fell, and water animals (such as a muskrat or turtle) dived to bring up the earth that formed the continents Local Landform Legends: Pacific Northwest tribes explained major geological features—like the creation of the Bridge of the Gods near Cascade Locks or the behaviors of local volcanic peaks like Mount Hood (Wyeast) and Mount Adams (Pahto)—through dramatic accounts of ancestral spirits and rivalries The Wendigo and the Skinwalker are widely considered the most terrifying and well-known figures across Native American traditions While different tribes have their own unique stories, these two creatures evoke the deepest fear because they represent humans who turned into monsters. You can explore more of these chilling tales in this overview of Native American Monsters The Wendigo (Algonquin, Cree, and Ojibwe Tribes) What it is: A giant, starving ice monster with a heart of ice The origin: The creature was once a human. Eating human flesh (cannibalism) or falling into extreme greed turns a person into a Wendigo. Why it is terrifying: It is never full. The more it eats, the larger it grows. It represents winter famine and acts as a severe warning against selfishness and it hates gred and jealousey, and cannibalism The Skinwalker (Navajo Nation) What it is: An evil witch who uses dark magic to change shape into animals like wolves, coyotes, or owls.

Native American mythology consists of diverse oral traditions rooted in the natural world, deep spiritual connections to animals, and sacred creation accounts that varied significantly across hundreds of independent nations and regionsOral Tradition: Stories were passed down across generations by specialized elders, historians, and spiritual leaders rather than written down Mythology, history, practical survival, and sacred rituals were interwoven strands that defined a tribe's identity and moral order. The Living Natural World: Landforms, celestial events, and weather were seen as animated by powerful spirits or ancestral beings Tricksters (Coyote, Raven, and Rabbit): Figures like Coyote in western/plains tribes or Raven in Pacific Northwest traditions shape-shifted, broke rules, and used humor to teach vital lessons about humility, balance, and consequences The Thunderbird and Water Monster: Widely shared across Woodland and Plains regions, the Thunderbird was a powerful sky spirit causing thunder, while underwater monsters were often depicted as horned serpents representing deep, unpredictable aquatic forces Spider Woman: Revered in Southwest traditions (such as Hopi and Navajo) as a creator and earth goddess who helped weave life, light, and the structure of the universe into existence Emergence Accounts: Many Southwest and Plains peoples (like the Navajo and Hopi) hold emergence myths, describing how humanity and living beings climbed upward through successive, changing lower worlds into the current brightly lit world Earth Diver and Animal Creators: In many Eastern Woodland and Iroquois (Hodenosaunee) traditions, creation began when a sky-world entity fell, and water animals (such as a muskrat or turtle) dived to bring up the earth that formed the continents Pacific Northwest tribes explained major geological features—like the creation of the Bridge of the Gods near Cascade Locks or the behaviors of local volcanic peaks like Mount Hood (Wyeast) and Mount Adams (Pahto)—through dramatic accounts of ancestral spirits and rivalries.Earth Diver and Animal Creators: In many Eastern Woodland and Iroquois (Hodenosaunee) traditions, creation began when a sky-world entity fell, and water animals (such as a muskrat or turtle) dived to bring up the earth that formed the continents Local Landform Legends: Pacific Northwest tribes explained major geological features—like the creation of the Bridge of the Gods near Cascade Locks or the behaviors of local volcanic peaks like Mount Hood (Wyeast) and Mount Adams (Pahto)—through dramatic accounts of ancestral spirits and rivalries The Wendigo and the Skinwalker are widely considered the most terrifying and well-known figures across Native American traditions While different tribes have their own unique stories, these two creatures evoke the deepest fear because they represent humans who turned into monsters.

I went to Bethines Room womans shelter at 7 today and I was turned away so I went to Broadway inn Portland Oregon and rented a room for tonight and I can't wait till I get my SSI at the end of the month so I can go to Arizona with Chynna and if Trevor goes he goes I guess. I won't be coming back to Oregon till there's nothing left after the nukes hit the big ones from overseas. By the way that's my first time ever there. So I'm going to sue the salvation army shelter in pearl district Portland Oregon and everyone who shut down that shelter for no reason at all through Washington dc. And middle eastern country's and venues.
