The podcast by project managers for project managers. The Key Crossing Reliability Initiative by Baltimore Gas and Electric (BG&E) is a critical project replacing aging transmission lines across the Patapsco River, spanning 2.25 miles. Managed by Cody Duplisea, PMP, it powers over a million homes and businesses in Baltimore. Completed before the Francis Scott Key Bridge collapse, it gained high visibility for ensuring reliable power transmission.

As many of you know the bridge collapsed around 1:30 a.m. March 26th this year after a massive cargo ship, called the Dali, lost power, veered off course and struck the bridge. Six construction workers died in this accident. This episode we recorded before the tragedy took place and before the bridge collapsed. We opted against editing our conversation and chose to leave it in its original state. So, we do talk about the bridge quite a bit in this podcast. WENDY GROUNDS: You're listening to Manage This, the podcast by project managers for project managers. My name is Wendy Grounds, and with me in the studio is Bill Yates. We hope to bring you some support as you navigate your projects. We like to also delve into the latest developments that are shaping our world today. And we're thrilled to highlight a remarkable project on this episode. This is called the Key Crossing Reliability Initiative, and it has been named a PMI Project of the Year Award Finalist for 2023. BILL YATES: Yeah, this is such an honor to be able to speak with Cody directly about this project. He was involved in it and led it. Just to step back for a minute, this is a project that Baltimore Gas and Electric, BG&E, initiated. They were replacing transmission line. So, as you guys know, I spent the first half of my career working in the utility space. Utilities have a generation component, transmission, and distribution. Transmission, these are the tall towers that we see when we're driving down the road. Those are high voltage. They cover long distances. And then distribution is that last piece that gets the electricity to our homes or to our business. So, these transmission lines that we're going to talk about are, again, they're high voltage. And in this case, they're spanning across a river. And we're going to talk about eight transmission poles that are put in place to span like a 2.5-mile space. Five of those are in the water, and eight total to get transmission, to get electricity from one side of the river to the next where you have a million customers who need electricity. WENDY GROUNDS: Our guest is Cody Duplisea, and he works for Burns & McDonnell as a project manager working on Baltimore Gas and Electric's Key Crossing Reliability Initiative. Cody's career started in Northwestern Pennsylvania as a pipeline project engineer with National Fuel, and he has since become an integral part of the Burns & McDonnell PMOC for BGE going on nine years. Since joining Burns & McDonnell in 2015, Cody has worked in the development of BGE's Project Controls Organization for the STRIDE Gas Main Replacement Program, as well as managed multiple facilities' enhancement projects.
Ultra marathon swimmer Katie Pumphrey is an accomplished athlete. She swam the English Channel twice, circumnavigated Manhattan and completed the DC Marathon Swim. And in June, she added to her impressive accomplishments in local waters. Pumphrey swam the 24-miles from the Chesapeake Bay Bridge into Baltimore's Inner Harbor, a route no one else has completed before. She says her love for Baltimore energized her every stroke through the Patapsco River's waters. “I love this city so much,” Pumphrey told Baltimore Banner. “Baltimore should be proud of our city. I want more people to talk about how awesome it is. So, if my swim helps to highlight everything that the city is and has been and can be — I'm just honored.” Pumphrey joins Midday to talk about her momentous journey, and what it means to her to open water swim in her city's own backyard.

The 700-foot-wide section of the Patapsco River where the Dali slammed into the Francis Scott Key Bridge is open for business. Following the incident, the clean-up operation took more than 2,000 people working for nearly 11 weeks. Temporary channels were opened to vessel traffic, though none of them were as deep nor as wide as the Federal Channel. Prior to the incident, the Port of Baltimore was essential to the regional economy and the national supply chain, and the I-695 corridor, of which the Francis Scott Key Bridge was a part, provided a vital connection for people and goods traveling along the East Coast. Over 30,000 vehicles crossed the bridge daily. On this episode of Morning Shot, Dr Gregory DeYong, Associate Professor of Operations Management, Southern Illinois University shares his insights on the scale of restoration needed in terms of operations and logistics.

Recovery and clean up efforts continue following the collapse of the Francis Scott Key Bridge in March. Earlier this week, the port of Baltimore's channel fully reopened following 11 weeks of demolition and scavenging to remove debris from the Patapsco River. Gov. Wes Moore joins Midday to discuss the latest. We ask him about how much of the $60 emergency funds remain unspent, and if there is the possibility of speeding up the rebuild of the bridge spanning the Patapsco's channel.Email us at midday@wypr.org, tweet us: @MiddayWYPR, or call us at 410-662-8780.
Seven Foot Knoll Lighthouse Located in the inner harbor of Baltimore, Maryland, Historic Ships of Baltimore celebrates more than 200 years of Maryland's naval and maritime history. The site's attractions include the sloop-of-war Constellation, the last sail-only warship designed and built by the United States Navy. Among the other highlights are the USS Torsk, a Navy submarine commissioned in 1944, and the 1936 U.S. Coast Guard Cutter 37. Lightship Chesapeake For lighthouse and lightship buffs there are two historic attractions. The lightship LV116, also known as the Lightship Chesapeake, is a National Historic Landmark and one of a small number of preserved lightships in the U.S. Alexa Price The Seven Foot Knoll Lighthouse is a screw-pile structure that began service in 1856 at the entrance to the Patapsco River, on the approach to Baltimore Harbor. The City of Baltimore had the structure moved to its new home on the city's waterfront in 1988. Alexa Price, today's guest, is the public programs manager for Historic Ships of Baltimore.
The collapse of the Francis Scott Key Bridge in March caused some environmental advocates to worry about potential impacts on marine life and ecosystem of the Patapsco River. But concerns surrounding pollution and environmental hazards near the port predate the bridge collapse. Communities near Baltimore's port have long expressed concerns about pollution in their neighborhoods. Dr. Sacoby Wilson is an environmental justice advocate who oversees projects in Curtis Bay and Turner Station, two neighborhoods near the port. Wilson is a Professor with the Maryland Institute for Applied Environmental Health and Department of Epidemiology and Biostatistics at the University of Maryland, College Park School of Public Health. He is also the director of the Center for Community Engagement, Environmental Justice and Health (CEEJH), and the host of My Block Counts, a podcast that explores the environmental issues that impact Maryland. The podcast is produced in cooperation with WYPR. (Photo by Kristen Mosbrucker, WYPR)Email us at midday@wypr.org, tweet us: @MiddayWYPR, or call us at 410-662-8780.
A section of the collapsed Francis Scott Key Bridge was demolished Sunday, as engineers work to clear wreckage. Engineers say they successful used controlled explosives to remove remnants of the bridge from the deck of the cargo ship Dali. Following the ship's collision with the bridge March 26, remnants of the roadway had been strewn across the vessel. Maryland Gov. Wes Moore joins Midday to discuss the progress on the reclamation and recovery of port access in the Patapsco River.

At 1:30 am on March 26th, the container ship Dali struck the Francis Scott Key Bridge and sent it falling into the Patapsco River. Six members of a construction crew lost their lives and the port of Baltimore has been partially closed since. Dueling investigations are underway, with the FBI working to determine whether any federal laws were broken and the NTSB looking to reconstruct the accident and learn from it. The ship is still in place, with the bridge on its bow and the crew onboard, and The Army Corps of Engineers hopes to have the port of Baltimore fully open by late May. How is this tragic situation affecting each of us - all of us? In this episode of The Sourcing Hero podcast, Host Kelly Barner welcomes back Kris Lance, Senior Director at Una, for a recurring monthly conversation about current news stories. Kris has experience in multiple industries and has his finger on the pulse of the trends and topics that procurement, sourcing, and supply chain professionals need to be aware of. In this month's discussion, Kris and Kelly talk about the varied responses to the bridge collapse and what we can take away from the situation as a whole: Whether the legal steps taken by the ship's owner and management company are examples of the actions that give big business a bad name How humans tend to respond to the fast dissemination of news and the updates that follow Why some people may have lost their way based on their focus in the aftermath of the collapse Links: Kris Lance on LinkedIn Subscribe to “The Sidekick” Episode 158: All Eyes Should Remain on the Red Sea with Kris Lance Episode 154: The Sourcing Hero Gets a Sidekick with Kris Lance Episode 150: 2024: The Year of the Dragon? with Kris Lance Episode 145: Looking Back and Looking Ahead with Kris Lance
As salvage crews work to remove debris from the Patapsco River, investigators are trying to determine why the cargo ship Dali lost power and collided with the Key Bridge last month. The collision caused the bridge's collapse and the death of six construction workers. Lee O. Sanderlin, enterprise reporter at The Baltimore Banner, investigated similar instances of engine failure, in a recent piece titled, “Close calls: For years, ships lost propulsion near Key Bridge with little scrutiny.”Do you have a question or comment about a show or a story idea to pitch?

One week has gone by since a massive container ship struck a critical support column of the Francis Scott Key Bridge in Baltimore, sending the structure and a group of construction workers who were fixing potholes on the bridge into the water of the Patapsco River. Of the 8 men who were working on the bridge that night, six have been pronounced dead since last Tuesday. As more details have emerged about the accident, and the city and port authority's plans for clean-up and reconstruction, The Real News convened a panel of journalists working all sides of this story to get a sense of what we know, what key questions still need to be answered, and what happens next.Joining this timely discussion are Marc Steiner, host of the Marc Steiner Show on The Real News Network; Real News Network Editor-in-Chief Max Alvarez; Dharna Noor, who leads "Big Oil Uncovered," a Guardian series focused on the fossil fuel industry's attempts to thwart climate science, discourse, and policy; and Clara Longo de Freitas, a neighborhood reporter covering East Baltimore communities for the Baltimore Banner.Studio Production: Adam ColeyPost-Production: David HebdenHelp us continue producing radically independent news and in-depth analysis by following us and becoming a monthly sustainer.Sign up for our newsletterLike us on FacebookFollow us on TwitterDonate to support this podcastBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-real-news-podcast--2952221/support.

24 hours after Max returned to Baltimore from East Palestine, Ohio, the shipping vessel Dali slammed into the Francis Scott Key Bridge, collapsing it into the Patapsco River. The catastrophic collision and collapse of the bridge claimed the lives of six immigrant, non-union construction workers who were working the night shift at the time, filling potholes on the bridge. In this interview on The Valley Labor Report, Alabama's only weekly union talk show, hosts Jacob Morrison and Adam Keller speak with Max about The Real News Network's coverage of the bridge collapse, the connections between Baltimore and East Palestine, and about the conspiracists and "anti-woke" grifters who are trying to capitalize on this tragedy for their own gain.

When the iconic Francis Scott Key Bridge in Baltimore collapsed around 1:30am on Tuesday, March 26, eight men who were working on the bridge at the time were plunged into the cold waters of the Patapsco River. Two of those men were recovered alive, six were not. As TRNN previously reported, all existing evidence points to the fact that these workers—who were working for a non-union contractor, Brawner Builders, filling potholes on the bridge—did not receive any warning from emergency dispatch that the shipping vessel Dali was about to plow into the bridge. As Baltimore reels from the shock of the bridge collapse, as investigations begin into the root causes of the accident, and as we begin to take stock of the seismic economic and potential environmental impacts that this catastrophic accident will have, the families of the six workers who died are mourning an incalculable loss. As Clara Longo de Frietas writes at The Baltimore Banner, “All of the men confirmed or presumed to be dead had emigrated from Honduras, Guatemala, El Salvador or Mexico. They were Alejandro Hernandez Fuentes, 35; Dorlian Ronial Castillo Cabrera, 26; Miguel Luna, 49; Maynor Yassir Suazo Sandoval, 38; Jose Mynor Lopez, 35; and one as-yet-unnamed man… All of them came to Baltimore for a better life.” Amidst this tragedy, volunteers, community organizers, immigrant and Latino/Latine justice organizations, businesses, and more have responded with tireless efforts to support the families of the deceased workers, and to provide support for Baltimore's Latino/Latine and immigrant communities in general. In this special bilingual podcast, recorded in Spanish and English at El Taquito Mexicano restaurant in Fells Point, TRNN Editor-in-Chief Maximillian Alvarez sits down with a panel of community and immigrant justice organizers and members of Baltimore's Latino/Latine community to discuss those efforts, what we know about the men who were working on that bridge, and what this tragedy tells us about the plight of immigrant workers in Baltimore and around the US. Panelists include: Ricardo Ortiz, vice president of the Centro de Apoyo Para la Superación del Inmigrante (CAPSI); Susana Barrios, vice president of the Latino Racial Justice Circle; Carlos Crespo, who volunteers at CAPSI; Lucia Islas, president of Comité Latino de Baltimore; Norma Martinez, a high-school student in Baltimore, born in Honduras (and Max's foster daughter); Claudia, co-owner of El Taquito Mexicano; Victor, co-owner of El Taquito Mexicano.

It's Wednesday, March 27th, A.D. 2024. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard at www.TheWorldview.com. I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Jonathan Clark 161 acts of persecution against Christians so far in 2024 During the first 75 days of 2024, the United Christian Forum documented 161 incidents of persecution against Christians in India. Christians in the Hindu-majority country often face accusations of forced conversion. The group noted Christians experienced the most persecution in the central Indian state of Chhattisgarh. It said, “There is clear evidence of state-sponsored harassment of Christians in this state, as the police file false allegations of conversion against pastors, even for praying in birthday parties and other social gatherings.” One billion people in India expected to vote Nearly a billion people will head to the polls in India next month. It's considered the largest democratic election in history. Prime Minister Narendra Modi is expected to win a third term in a row. His Hindu-nationalist party, known as the Bharatiya Janata Party, is also expected to remain in power. India overtook China as the world's most populated country last year. India also overtook the U.K. as the fifth largest economy in 2022 and is on track to be the third largest behind the U.S. and China. Isaiah 40:15 reminds us, “Behold, the nations are as a drop in a bucket, and are counted as the small dust on the scales; Look, [the Lord] lifts up the isles as a very little thing.” Air & Space Museum in trouble for mocking pro-lifers In the United States, a national museum agreed to a $50,000 settlement with pro-life tourists. Twelve students visited the National Air and Space Museum last year, wearing pro-life apparel. Museum staff mocked the students and forced them to leave. Patrick Murphy, one of those pro-life students, appeared on Sean Hannity's Fox show and explained what happened. MURPHY: “We got done with the March for Life and we decided to go to the Air and Space Museum. We ended up but the Flight Brothers exhibit. At this time, we were addressed by security guards and they tell, ‘All people wearing a pro-life hat, take it off.' One of the students with us proceeds to say, ‘We use these hats for identification purposes. This is for our group.' “We were approached by a large man as we were walking out, rubbing his hands together, saying ‘Y'all are about to make my day!' He tells us he's got reports saying we said no to taking our hats off and we're in trouble for some odd reason. I then said, ‘This is a violation of our First Amendment right. This is a government-funded building.' He said, ‘It's a neutral zone, and that doesn't apply here.' And we were blown away. We had almost no words.” The Smithsonian oversees the museum and agreed to the settlement, offering the students a private tour. Jordan Sekulow with the American Center for Law and Justice wrote, “This was a clear-cut First Amendment violation, not only of their freedom of speech but of religion as well. The federal government simply cannot ban speech with which it or its employees disagree.” Kansas pro-life bill would end chemical abortion In welcome news, Students for Life Action applauded the roll call vote on Senate Bill 286 in the Kansas Senate, which, if signed into law, will greatly increase pro-life protections in Kansas, stopping dangerous Chemical Abortion pills and ending intentional abortion. This vote resulted from the hard work of Students for Life Action intern Cheyenne Vandeventer, who helped introduce the law in 2023, and was championed by Kansas GOP State Senator Dr. Mark Steffen. Ship crashed into Baltimore bridge, causing collapse A massive, Singapore-flagged container ship, named Dali, bound for Sri Lanka, crashed into the Francis Scott Key Bridge yesterday at 1:30am in Maryland, causing it to collapse. Watch the video. The ship was departing from Baltimore, Maryland when it lost power. The collision sent people and cars into the icy Patapsco River. First responders rescued two people from the river, but six more are unaccounted for and presumed dead. Maryland's Democratic Governor Wes Moore spoke to the press. MOORE: “This morning our state is in shock. To our first responders, I'm in awe of you. I'm in awe of your courage. I'm in awe of your strength. You saw a crisis and you said, ‘What can I do to help' to rescue and recover the victims of this collapse literally as we speak.” Ship traffic to the Baltimore Harbor is suspended for now. The port is the busiest one in the United States for car shipments. Maternal mortality rate did not skyrocket at all A new study in the American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology found the U.S. maternal mortality rate may have been overestimated. In 2003, death certificates started to include a box if someone was pregnant near the time of death. This led to the appearance of a 143% increase in maternal mortality rates over the last 21 years. However, researchers found the rate only increased by two percent in reality. LifeSiteNews noted, “Maternal mortality is frequently used as an excuse to expand legal abortion. … Across the globe, statistics have shown that legal abortion does not lower the maternal mortality rate.” Alabama defunded “woke” programs Last Wednesday, Alabama's Republican Governor Kay Ivey signed a bill to defund diversity, equity, and inclusion programs. The state will no longer fund such woke programs at schools, public colleges, and government agencies. The law put restrictions on “divisive concepts” like the idea that “any individual should accept, acknowledge, affirm, or assent to a sense of guilt, complicity, or a need to apologize on the basis of his or her race, color, religion, sex, ethnicity, or national origin.” Weekly U.S. church attendance down 12 points And finally, Gallup released a new poll on church attendance in America. Overall, 30% of Americans say they attend religious services weekly or almost weekly. Eleven percent attend once a month, and 56% seldom or never attend. Since 2000, weekly or almost weekly religious attendance is down 12 points for U.S. adults. It's down 12 points for Catholics and down four points for Protestants. Hebrews 10:24-25 says, “Let us consider one another in order to stir up love and good works, not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as is the manner of some, but exhorting one another.” Close And that's The Worldview in 5 Minutes on this Wednesday, March 27th in the year of our Lord 2024.

Hours before dawn on Tuesday morning, Baltimore's Francis Scott Key Bridge suddenly vanished into the Patapsco River. While many questions remains about the disaster, it will be years before a new bridge is built to replace the wreckage, and many months before a new normal is established for the tens of thousands of people who traveled on the bridge every day. Late Tuesday night, the U.S. Coast Guard announced it was suspending its search for the six people unaccounted for following the disaster. Rear Adm. Shannon Gilreath said that based on the length of time since the bridge collapsed and the water temperatures, they don't believe that search teams are going to find any of these individuals still alive. Today on Midday, we will talk about what happened, how it is affected our communities, and what we have to do to process this tragedy, and move forward.

pWotD Episode 2520: Francis Scott Key Bridge (Baltimore) Welcome to popular Wiki of the Day where we read the summary of a popular Wikipedia page every day.With 1,446,189 views on Tuesday, 26 March 2024 our article of the day is Francis Scott Key Bridge (Baltimore).The Francis Scott Key Bridge was a steel arch continuous through truss bridge spanning the lower Patapsco River and outer Baltimore Harbor / Port carrying Maryland Route 695 (the Baltimore Beltway) between Hawkins Point, a neighborhood of Baltimore, and Dundalk in Maryland, United States. The main spans of the bridge were destroyed on March 26, 2024, when a container ship, the MV Dali, crashed into one of its support pillars. The crossing between Baltimore City and Baltimore County also passed through a small portion of Anne Arundel County. It was first known as the Outer Harbor Crossing until 1976, when it was renamed while still under construction. It has also been known as Key Bridge or Beltway Bridge. The main span of 1,200 feet (366 m) was the third longest span of any continuous truss in the world, and the total length was 8,636 feet (2,632 m) long. It was the second-longest bridge in the Baltimore metropolitan area, after the Chesapeake Bay Bridge.The bridge was opened on March 23, 1977, named for amateur poet Francis Scott Key (1779–1843), the author of the lyrics to the American national anthem, "The Star-Spangled Banner". The Key Bridge was a toll facility operated by the Maryland Transportation Authority (MDTA). The bridge was the outermost of three toll crossings of Baltimore's Harbor, two tunnels and one bridge. The bridge carried an estimated 11.5 million vehicles annually. It was a designated hazardous materials truck route, as HAZMATs were prohibited in the Baltimore Harbor and Fort McHenry tunnels. Once completed, the bridge structure and its approaches became the final links in Interstate 695, the "Baltimore Beltway", completing a two-decade-long project. Despite being signed as part of I-695, the bridge was officially considered part of the state highway system and designated Maryland Route 695.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 06:13 UTC on Wednesday, 27 March 2024.For the full current version of the article, see Francis Scott Key Bridge (Baltimore) on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Mastodon at @wikioftheday@masto.ai.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm Salli Neural.
For years before the beginning of the modern UFO era in 1947, sightings of bizarre, cigar-shaped flying objects capable of unusual aerial feats were reported by pilots during World War II, as well as military and civilian pilots over the Americas. After the war, strange sightings continued involving aircraft that were mysterious for their time... but which look eerily familiar to us today. What were these mysterious objects, and do some of the "UFO" reports from decades past actually point to a secret history of aviation in the U.S. that could explain some of the mystery? This week on The Micah Hanks Program, we look at some of the most compelling UFO reports from over the decades that could point to the existence of experimental technologies developed by the U.S. that have never been fully disclosed.

According to a video posted on X, A large vessel crashed into the bridge, catching on fire before sinking and causing multiple vehicles to fall into the Patapsco River. As per reports, emergency responders were searching for at least seven people believed to be in the water.This was the Catch-Up on the 3 Things by The Indian Express.
In a heartrending incident in the early hours of a Tuesday, the iconic Francis Scott Key Bridge in Baltimore suffered a calamitous collapse. A large container vessel that had suddenly lost power rammed into a support pillar, leading to a catastrophic failure of the structure and plunging both people and vehicles into the cold depths of the Patapsco River, according to officials. The ship in question, a Singapore-flagged container vessel named the 'Dali', was under the operation of the charter company Synergy Group, and was carrying cargo for Maersk customers at the time of the incident. In a puzzling turn of events, the ship lost power instantly prior to impacting the bridge. The exact cause that led to the vessel's power failure remains enigmatic. Paul Wiedefeld, the Secretary of Maryland's Department of Transportation, conducted a mid-morning press briefing with a somber countenance. During the update, he informed the media that six individuals, all members of a construction team performing pothole repairs on the bridge, were still unaccounted for. Their colleagues, two workers who had also toppled into the water, were fortunately saved by the tireless efforts of rescue workers. On one hand, a worker was fortunate enough to escape the calamity unscathed. On the other, his colleague was transferred to the University of Maryland Medical Center in a critical condition. Currently being treated, the individual is yet to provide their statement to investigators due to the severity of his injuries. In light of the grievous event, Wes Moore, the Governor of Maryland, officially declared a state of emergency. The Governor assured that his administration was vigilantly collaborating with various agencies to fast-track deployment of Federal aid from the Biden administration during this trying time. He expressed gratitude to the intrepid men and women tirelessly working on rescue missions and extended his prayers for the safety of all. Details unraveled that a distress call took place in the wee hours of the day, around 1:30 a.m., with emergency phone lines lighting up with reports of a vessel colliding with the bridge. The exact number of vehicles on the structure during the disastrous event is still uncertain, but reports suggest the presence of a significant tractor-trailer on the facility. Kevin Cartwright, the communications director for the fire department, classified the unfortunate incident as a 'mass casualty event'. Drawing a grave picture of the situation, he described some of the ship's cargo still hanging precariously from the damaged bridge. In response to the distress signals, emergency protocols were quickly put into action. Preemptive measures, including the halting traffic to the bridge, were taken based on the received mayday call. Wes Moore and Baltimore Mayor Brandon Scott jointly affirm that these judicious decisions saved numerous lives that fateful night. Amid catastrophic circumstances, speculations about potential terrorist involvement demanded official resources. The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) conducted an on-scene assessment to rule out any links to terrorism. William DelBagno, the special agent-in-charge at the FBI's Baltimore office, dismissed any allegations tying the calamitous bridge collapse to terrorist activities. On the flip side, the National Transportation Security Board has been proactive in its response. The Security Board dispatched a team to meticulously scan the scene of the accident and investigate the incident thoroughly. While recovery efforts continue, Baltimore's Mayor has called for prayers and gratitude for the first responders, the affected families, and those entangled in the ongoing efforts. The impact of the collapse echoed through the surrounding area, with a local Baltimore resident comparing the rumble to an earthquake or a powerful thunderclap. This event has significantly hampered the operations of the Baltimore Port - a critical junction for East Coast shipping. Consequently, shipping to and from Baltimore has been temporarily suspended. Named posthumously after the composer of 'The Star-Spangled Banner', the Francis Scott Key Bridge, established in 1977, served as a frequent passage for approximately 31,000 commuters daily. The four-lane span catered to a bustling flow of traffic, and its absence is expected to result in a significant shift in local transportation dynamics. Governor Moore has declared it premature to predict the timeframe required to restore the bridge and resume regular operations. In the aftermath of the tragic incident, Pete Buttigieg, the U.S. Transportation Secretary, publicly announced his support. He confirmed having engaged in communications with Governor Moore and Mayor Scott, extending the aid of the U.S. Department of Transportation as rescuing efforts persist. He further urged motorists in the Baltimore area to heed local advisories on alternatives and response procedures.

In a special Midday evening broadcast, Tom recaps the events of the day in the search and rescue mission regarding the Francis Scott Key Bridge collapse. In the early hours Tuesday morning, a cargo ship leaving the port of Baltimore crashed into the Francis Scott Key Bridge, wrapping the ship in a tangled mass of steel, and plunging most of the bridge structure into the Patapsco River within seconds. In audio of a police scanner recorded minutes before the crash, we hear first responders rushing to evacuate workers from the bridge and to stop incoming traffic from the north and south. As the search and rescue continues into the evening following the crash, we hear the latest updates from WYPR reporter Emily Hofstaedter, who is reporting from near where the bridge once stood. We also hear from Morgan State University Dean Oscar Barton, Jr., who runs the Clarence M. Mitchell, Jr. School of Engineering. And Ralph Siegel of Total Traffic and Weather Network about how people will get around the region for the foreseeable future.

In the early hours of Tuesday morning, a cargo ship leaving the US city of Baltimore catastrophically struck a major bridge. The entire middle section of the 1.6-mile-long Francis Scott Key Bridge collapsed into the Patapsco River. The ship lost power as it left the port, but the crew had enough time to make a mayday call so officials on the bridge were able to shut it to most traffic. Two people were rescued from the water but several people are still missing. There are now questions about how such a large vessel lost control and how the huge structure of the bridge crumbled so quickly. On today's edition of the Sky News Daily, Leah Boleto speaks to our US Correspondent Martha Kelner in Baltimore and our Science Correspondent Thomas More. Plus, Ben Schafer, a structural engineer at Baltimore's Johns Hopkins University explains why the bridge fell so quickly.

Michael Cassidy said he decided "spur of the moment" to travel north to Des Moines and take action against the statue, which had been permitted to be erected not far from the rotunda's Nativity display for Christmas. He told "Jesse Watters Primetime" he wrecked the statue then went straight to Capitol security to tell them what he did. "I wasn't running away or anything like that. I told them what I did," he said, thanking law enforcement for their professionalism following the incident. He was cited for criminal mischief in the fourth degree and released. "I saw that this was going on, I was surprised that the legislature allowed it up and that they didn't do anything to take it down," Cassidy added. He said he wasn't sure what to expect when he came upon the Capitol, citing a prior incident in Springfield, Ill., where groups were chanting after a 2021 erection of a satanic statue in the Illinois State House. In a Tuesday statement, Iowa Republican Gov. Kim Reynolds said she found the statue "absolutely objectionable," but that the best response to objectionable speech is more speech and prayer. After he was charged, several conservative figures rallied to Cassidy's defense, including Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis and conservative commentator Matt Walsh. DeSantis promised to "chip in" for Cassidy's legal fees, writing on X, formerly Twitter, that "Satan has no place in our society and should not be recognized as a ‘religion’ by the federal government." Walsh similarly tweeted he will contribute to Cassidy's defense. Host Jesse Watters noted the contrast between reaction to Cassidy's act and the dozens of protests in recent years that featured left-wing activists tearing down statues of Confederate officers, former U.S. presidents and historical figures like Christopher Columbus. He pointed to then-Speaker Nancy Pelosi's, D-Calif., dismissal of the crowd in her home neighborhood of Little Italy, Baltimore, who leveled the Columbus statue and tossed it in the Patapsco River. "People will do what they do," Pelosi said at a July 2020 press conference. The city of Richmond, Va., in recent years removed an entire street's worth of statuary dedicated to Confederate Gens. A. P. Hill, "Stonewall" Jackson and J. E. B. Stuart, all of which lined the former Confederate capital's "Monument Avenue" for decades. Left-wing protesters notably failed to topple the statue of Andrew Jackson, the first Democratic president, near the White House in 2020 after being rebuffed by law enforcement. In that respect, Watters said there appears to be a dichotomy between what statuary destruction causes mainstream or left-wing outrage. Cassidy's attorney, Davis Younts, said his client's case is a question of good versus evil, and that he and those who have come to his defense will continue to stand by him to make sure he gets equal protection under law. He also said there has not yet been a First Amendment suit in case law that has found Satanism to be considered a religion under the Constitution, and that anti-blasphemy laws still exist in the United States. https://www.breitbart.com/europe/2023/12/17/church-of-england-blesses-same-sex-couples-for-the-first-time/ Church of England Blesses Same-Sex Couples For the First Time Church of England priests offered officially sanctioned blessings of same-sex partnerships for the first time on Sunday, though a ban on church weddings for gay couples remains in place amid deep divisions within global Anglicanism over marriage and sexuality. In one of the first ceremonies, the Rev. Catherine Bond and the Rev. Jane Pearce had their union blessed at St John the Baptist church, in Felixstowe, eastern England, where both are associate priests. The couple knelt in front of Canon Andrew Dotchin, who held their heads as he gave “thanks for Catherine and Jane, to the love and friendship they share, and their commitment to one another as they come before you on this day.” The church´s national assembly voted in February to allow clergy to bless the unions of same-sex couples who have had civil weddings or partnerships. The words used for the blessings, known as prayers of love and faith, were approved by the church´s House of Bishops on Tuesday and used for the first time on Sunday. The compromise was struck following five years of discussions about the church´s position on sexuality. Church leaders offered an apology for the church´s failure to welcome LGBTQ people, but also endorsed the doctrine that marriage is the union of one man and one woman. Clergy won´t be required to perform same-sex blessings if they disagree with them. The blessings can be used in regular church services. The church´s governing body has also drawn up a plan for separate “services of prayer and dedication” for same-sex couples that would resemble weddings, but it has not yet been formally approved. Public opinion surveys consistently show that a majority of people in England support same-sex marriage, which has been legal since 2013. The church didn´t alter its teaching on marriage when the law changed. Archbishop of Canterbury Justin Welby has said he won´t personally bless any same-sex couples because it´s his job to unify the world’s 85 million Anglicans. Welby is the spiritual leader of both the Church of England and the global Anglican Communion of which it is a member. Several Anglican bishops from Africa, Asia, Latin America and the Pacific said after the February decision that they no longer recognize Welby as their leader. https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2023/12/18/poll-54-of-democrat-voters-want-to-replace-joe-biden-as-2024-nominee/ Poll: 54% of Democrat Voters Want to Replace Joe Biden as 2024 Nominee Democrat party voters are unhappy President Joe Biden, 81, is the presumptive Democrat nominee to likely challenge former President Donald Trump, Fox News polling revealed Sunday. The poll highlights the disconnect and discord inflicting the Democrat party after Biden refused to step aside and allow a different Democrat to lead the party. The survey showed: 54 percent of Democrat primary voters prefer an alternative to Biden. Just 43 percent of Democrat primary voters want to keep Biden. The polling showed a slight uptick in negative sentiment against the president: October: 53 percent prefer an alternative, while 45 want to keep Biden March: 52 percent prefer an alternative, while 44 want to keep Biden Biden previously told reporters in December he must run for reelection after prominent Democrats implored him to reconsider a second bid against Trump. “Would you be running if Trump wasn’t running?” a reporter asked Biden. “I expect so,” Biden replied. “But he is running, and — I just — I have to run.” Biden’s comment came on the same day he told donors he probably would not run if Trump was not running. “If Trump wasn’t running, I’m not sure I’d be running,” Biden said, adding that Democrats “cannot let him [Trump] win.” National and battleground state polling shows Biden losing to Trump: Morning Consult: Trump leads Biden in six of seven crucial swing states. NBC News: Trump leads Biden by two points. Fox News: Trump trounces Biden by four points.

In an interview with WPIX-TV, Adams said, that a low for the city in 2023 was "150,000 migrants and asylum seekers that put a real bump in the road of our recovery effort in the city." https://twitter.com/i/status/1736507664308277364 - Play Video https://twitter.com/i/status/1736512831963430927 - Play Video Combine these videos After a meeting with the congressional leaders of the Biden administration earlier this month, Adams said he was not optimistic about getting help from the federal government to deal with the illegal immigrant crisis plaguing New York City.

The four-time MVP ruptured his Achilles Sept. 11 on just his fourth snap as a New York Jet. Four days later, he shocked the world when he said, "Give me your doubts,then watch what I do." At that time, Rodgers did not rule out a return this season, saying that "anything is possible." Most doubted, but it may actually become a reality. According to ESPN, the 40-year-old is likely to be medically cleared to return next week. Rodgers returned to practice Nov. 29, roughly seven weeks since his injury. It was an unprecedented time frame to practice after such an injury. However, Rodgers said he underwent "innovative" surgery in his best effort to get back on the field this season. Rodgers has said he wanted a return on Christmas Eve. The Jets have until Wednesday to decide whether to activate Rodgers from injured reserve. Otherwise, he would miss the rest of the season. Rodgers has wowed just about everyone in the organization with how quickly he has progressed. Earlier this week, he even lined up as a linebacker for the scout team and made a one-handed interception. However, being cleared isn't exactly a guarantee Rodgers would play. The quarterback and the Jets have said the team's playoff chances will play a role in whether he returns. He likely would not return if they are mathematically eliminated from the playoffs, which could happen this weekend. Rodgers recently said there are hardly any risks in taking the field this season. "My thing is, what’s the worst that can happen?" he told reporters shortly after returning to practice. "Something unfortunate again, and then you just slow the rehab down. I think by my own timetable that if you take the rehab slower and a little more deliberate — five months, six months max — is probably the length to get back to 100% if you really take it slow. So, in my opinion, there's not like a downside to coming back and reinjuring it." The Jets face the Washington Commanders on Christmas Eve.

Michael Cassidy said he decided "spur of the moment" to travel north to Des Moines and take action against the statue, which had been permitted to be erected not far from the rotunda's Nativity display for Christmas. He told "Jesse Watters Primetime" he wrecked the statue then went straight to Capitol security to tell them what he did. "I wasn't running away or anything like that. I told them what I did," he said, thanking law enforcement for their professionalism following the incident. He was cited for criminal mischief in the fourth degree and released. "I saw that this was going on, I was surprised that the legislature allowed it up and that they didn't do anything to take it down," Cassidy added. He said he wasn't sure what to expect when he came upon the Capitol, citing a prior incident in Springfield, Ill., where groups were chanting after a 2021 erection of a satanic statue in the Illinois State House. In a Tuesday statement, Iowa Republican Gov. Kim Reynolds said she found the statue "absolutely objectionable," but that the best response to objectionable speech is more speech and prayer. After he was charged, several conservative figures rallied to Cassidy's defense, including Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis and conservative commentator Matt Walsh. DeSantis promised to "chip in" for Cassidy's legal fees, writing on X, formerly Twitter, that "Satan has no place in our society and should not be recognized as a ‘religion’ by the federal government." Walsh similarly tweeted he will contribute to Cassidy's defense. Host Jesse Watters noted the contrast between reaction to Cassidy's act and the dozens of protests in recent years that featured left-wing activists tearing down statues of Confederate officers, former U.S. presidents and historical figures like Christopher Columbus. He pointed to then-Speaker Nancy Pelosi's, D-Calif., dismissal of the crowd in her home neighborhood of Little Italy, Baltimore, who leveled the Columbus statue and tossed it in the Patapsco River. "People will do what they do," Pelosi said at a July 2020 press conference. The city of Richmond, Va., in recent years removed an entire street's worth of statuary dedicated to Confederate Gens. A. P. Hill, "Stonewall" Jackson and J. E. B. Stuart, all of which lined the former Confederate capital's "Monument Avenue" for decades. Left-wing protesters notably failed to topple the statue of Andrew Jackson, the first Democratic president, near the White House in 2020 after being rebuffed by law enforcement. In that respect, Watters said there appears to be a dichotomy between what statuary destruction causes mainstream or left-wing outrage. Cassidy's attorney, Davis Younts, said his client's case is a question of good versus evil, and that he and those who have come to his defense will continue to stand by him to make sure he gets equal protection under law. He also said there has not yet been a First Amendment suit in case law that has found Satanism to be considered a religion under the Constitution, and that anti-blasphemy laws still exist in the United States. https://www.breitbart.com/europe/2023/12/17/church-of-england-blesses-same-sex-couples-for-the-first-time/ Church of England Blesses Same-Sex Couples For the First Time Church of England priests offered officially sanctioned blessings of same-sex partnerships for the first time on Sunday, though a ban on church weddings for gay couples remains in place amid deep divisions within global Anglicanism over marriage and sexuality. In one of the first ceremonies, the Rev. Catherine Bond and the Rev. Jane Pearce had their union blessed at St John the Baptist church, in Felixstowe, eastern England, where both are associate priests. The couple knelt in front of Canon Andrew Dotchin, who held their heads as he gave “thanks for Catherine and Jane, to the love and friendship they share, and their commitment to one another as they come before you on this day.” The church´s national assembly voted in February to allow clergy to bless the unions of same-sex couples who have had civil weddings or partnerships. The words used for the blessings, known as prayers of love and faith, were approved by the church´s House of Bishops on Tuesday and used for the first time on Sunday. The compromise was struck following five years of discussions about the church´s position on sexuality. Church leaders offered an apology for the church´s failure to welcome LGBTQ people, but also endorsed the doctrine that marriage is the union of one man and one woman. Clergy won´t be required to perform same-sex blessings if they disagree with them. The blessings can be used in regular church services. The church´s governing body has also drawn up a plan for separate “services of prayer and dedication” for same-sex couples that would resemble weddings, but it has not yet been formally approved. Public opinion surveys consistently show that a majority of people in England support same-sex marriage, which has been legal since 2013. The church didn´t alter its teaching on marriage when the law changed. Archbishop of Canterbury Justin Welby has said he won´t personally bless any same-sex couples because it´s his job to unify the world’s 85 million Anglicans. Welby is the spiritual leader of both the Church of England and the global Anglican Communion of which it is a member. Several Anglican bishops from Africa, Asia, Latin America and the Pacific said after the February decision that they no longer recognize Welby as their leader. https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2023/12/18/poll-54-of-democrat-voters-want-to-replace-joe-biden-as-2024-nominee/ Poll: 54% of Democrat Voters Want to Replace Joe Biden as 2024 Nominee Democrat party voters are unhappy President Joe Biden, 81, is the presumptive Democrat nominee to likely challenge former President Donald Trump, Fox News polling revealed Sunday. The poll highlights the disconnect and discord inflicting the Democrat party after Biden refused to step aside and allow a different Democrat to lead the party. The survey showed: 54 percent of Democrat primary voters prefer an alternative to Biden. Just 43 percent of Democrat primary voters want to keep Biden. The polling showed a slight uptick in negative sentiment against the president: October: 53 percent prefer an alternative, while 45 want to keep Biden March: 52 percent prefer an alternative, while 44 want to keep Biden Biden previously told reporters in December he must run for reelection after prominent Democrats implored him to reconsider a second bid against Trump. “Would you be running if Trump wasn’t running?” a reporter asked Biden. “I expect so,” Biden replied. “But he is running, and — I just — I have to run.” Biden’s comment came on the same day he told donors he probably would not run if Trump was not running. “If Trump wasn’t running, I’m not sure I’d be running,” Biden said, adding that Democrats “cannot let him [Trump] win.” National and battleground state polling shows Biden losing to Trump: Morning Consult: Trump leads Biden in six of seven crucial swing states. NBC News: Trump leads Biden by two points. Fox News: Trump trounces Biden by four points. The poll surveyed 1,0007 registered voters from December 10-13 with a 4.5 point margin of error. https://thepostmillennial.com/eric-adams-admits-biden-admin-will-not-help-nyc-with-illegal-immigrant-crisis?utm_campaign=64487 Eric Adams admits Biden admin will not help NYC with illegal immigrant crisis On Sunday, New York City Mayor Eric Adams said that Democrats "underestimated" the impact that illegal immigration would have on their cities, and warned New Yorkers to brace for "extremely painful" budget cuts to pay back the debt created by it. In an interview with WPIX-TV, Adams said, that a low for the city in 2023 was "150,000 migrants and asylum seekers that put a real bump in the road of our recovery effort in the city." https://twitter.com/i/status/1736507664308277364 - Play Video https://twitter.com/i/status/1736512831963430927 - Play Video Combine these videos After a meeting with the congressional leaders of the Biden administration earlier this month, Adams said he was not optimistic about getting help from the federal government to deal with the illegal immigrant crisis plaguing New York City. Adams was forced to cut the budget for the New York City Police Department last month, taking the department below 30,000 personnel. https://www.foxnews.com/sports/aaron-rodgers-likely-cleared-return-ruptured-achilles-next-week-report Aaron Rodgers likely to be cleared for return from ruptured Achilles next week Aaron Rodgers' bold prediction is apparently about to play out. The four-time MVP ruptured his Achilles Sept. 11 on just his fourth snap as a New York Jet. Four days later, he shocked the world when he said, "Give me your doubts,then watch what I do." At that time, Rodgers did not rule out a return this season, saying that "anything is possible." Most doubted, but it may actually become a reality. According to ESPN, the 40-year-old is likely to be medically cleared to return next week. Rodgers returned to practice Nov. 29, roughly seven weeks since his injury. It was an unprecedented time frame to practice after such an injury. However, Rodgers said he underwent "innovative" surgery in his best effort to get back on the field this season. Rodgers has said he wanted a return on Christmas Eve. The Jets have until Wednesday to decide whether to activate Rodgers from injured reserve. Otherwise, he would miss the rest of the season.

My Bigfoot Encounter - Lon Strickler I was fly-fishing for redeye and smallmouth bass on the south branch of the Patapsco River approximately 1 mile downstream from Rt.32 near Sykesville, Maryland. After a few minutes or so, I heard the dog barking and growling. I figured that he stirred up a deer, but when I looked at the direction of the ruckus I noticed a dark hairy creature bobbing up and down in the thickets. I stopped fishing and moved closer to the riffles to get a better look and noticed that the dog stopped barking. Suddenly, I heard a loud yelp from the dog and the creature stood up. The best I could tell is that this “thing” was about 7-8 ft. tall and had dark matted hair. I could only see the body from the chest up because the rest of the body was obscured by the weeds and thickets. I stood completely still and could hear a series of “tick” sounds while observing this creature walk slowly through the thickets towards the woods. I started to follow it and in the meantime I noticed a strong musky scent that reminded me of fox urine.I had waders on so I could only move so fast in an attempt to get a better look at this creature. It simply moved too fast for me. I decided to go back to my car, drive into Sykesville and make an immediate report to the authorities.The local police told me to go back to the area and they would meet me there. The State Police officer told to get back in my car and leave immediately because they didn’t know how dangerous the situation was.
