King Abdullah of Saudi Arabia dies


Posted: Jan 23, 2015

Successors were already in place, even 2 chosen.  Seems they have had a bit of trouble keeping successors alive long enough. 

King Salman is 79.  King Abdullah died at 90.  Long-living. 

Interesting time with Yemen blowing up on the southern border.  SA supported the regime in Yemen until the opposition was allowed to take too strong a foothold, then they cut their funding.  There is apparently a wall/fence being built on the southern border of SA between SA and Yemen, but it is not complete.   

Thought seems to be that the new power in Saudi Arabia will not be much different and people being promoted down the line, have been very supportive in opposing Al-Qaeda in the past.

Buenos Aires beachgoers.

In the process, at least one of the intelligent, playful cetaceans died from the experience. Franciscana, or La Plata, dolphins are unable to spend as long out of the water as their larger brethren. “At least one of these dolphins suffered a horrific, traumatic and utterly unn ...
