IS THERE AN UNDERWATER CITY 6 MILES OFF THE COAST OF MALIBU?
HUFF POST: TRUTH MALIBU UNDERWATER ALIEN BASE
An excellent article by Lee Speigel explores a large strange formation like an undersea plateau that was discovered by viewers of Google Earth. Are Aliens living under there in a city or does science explain best?
An excerpt: "
"I didn't see anything special about it. I think it's because it looks like there's a flat surface and then, below it, it looks like there are these vertical columns, so somebody can say, 'Oh, this is the entryway to something special,'" said earthquake geologist David Schwartz of the U.S. Geological Survey.
"I think it's natural and is a part of the continental shelf," Schwartz told HuffPost. "It's just a complicated part of what's now offshore that has seen some erosion and, maybe, slumping when perhaps this was partially exposed when sea level was lower. This is a really major earthquake area and perhaps some of these features are a result of slope failures, due to shaking..."

HISTORICAL FEMALE PIRATES and THE "CAPTAIN PHILLIPS" FILM
I first learned that women had been pirates in 1998. Of course I knew that women probably dreamed of being pirates but I just didn't think women were ALLOWED to become pirates. It was a feminist issue. Then I began to read about women pirates, in particular the Chinese women pirates, and I realized that the pirate mentality was that NO ONE WAS ASKING ANY PERMISSION.
Some of the women pirates I learned about dressed as men at the time they were pirating. Women's clothing was too cumbersome or limiting to move in. These women pirates had to have a lot of daring and courage but they were just as dangerous, cunning, and criminal as the men.
I learned that the idea of the law that we have now, as being a rule of society that everyone was to respect, was not in place in most cultures where these historical pirates operated. Back then the attitude was more like "May the smarter or stronger person win." Some pirates were respected, some were hired to pirate by a business person's enemy, and some quit while they were still alive and used their fortunes to settle down into a land-based normal life! Basically, if they got away with pirating then it was considered fair enough!
So recently when I saw the actor Tom Hank's recent film about the Somali pirates, CAPTAIN PHILLIPS, which is based on a true story, I also learned that warlords and other authorities can order other people to pirate to make them rich or to enrich the local economy.
I enjoyed the movie. Have you seen it?

SEA LEVELS ARE RISING! WILL YOUR CITY BE 10 FEET UNDER WATER? CHECK THIS SITE MAP!
SEALEVEL - CLIMATECENTRAL- MAP go to the map and see how deep under your city will be.
"Global warming has raised global sea level about 8 inches since 1880, and the rate of rise is accelerating. Rising seas dramatically increase the odds of damaging floods from storm surges. A Climate Central analysis finds the odds of “century” or worse floods occurring by 2030 are on track to double or more, over widespread areas of the U.S. These increases threaten an enormous amount of damage. Across the country, nearly 5 million people live in 2.6 million homes at less than 4 feet above high tide — a level lower than the century flood line for most locations analyzed. And compounding this risk, scientists expect roughly 2 to 7 more feet of sea level rise this century — a lot depending upon how much more heat-trapping pollution humanity puts into the sky."
