    Word salad is a "confused or unintelligible mixture of seemingly random words and phrases", most often used to describe a symptom of a neurological or mental disorder. The words may or may not be grammatically correct, but are semantically confused to the point that the listener cannot extract any meaning from them.

    A British academic has gathered evidence suggesting garden was created at Nineveh, 300 miles from Babylon

    Recent excavations have found traces of aqueducts. One near Nineveh was so vast that Dalley said its remains looked like a stretch of motorway from the air, and it bore a crucial inscription: "Sennacherib king of the world … Over a great distance I had a watercourse directed to the environs of Nineveh …"

    Having first broached her theory in 1992, Dalley is now presenting a mass of evidence in a book, The Mystery of the Hanging Garden of Babylon, which Oxford University Press publishes on 23 May. She expects to divide academic opinion, but the evidence convinces her that Sennacherib's garden fulfils the criteria for a wonder of the world – "magnificent in conception, spectacular in engineering, and brilliant in artistry".

    Dalley said: "That the Hanging Garden was built in Babylon by Nebuchadnezzar the Great is a fact learned at school and … 'verified' in encyclopaedias … To challenge such a universally accepted truth might seem the height of arrogance, revisionist scholarship ... But Assyriology is a relatively recent discipline … Facts that once seemed secure become redundant."

    Sennacherib's palace, with steps of semi-precious stone and an entrance guarded by colossal copper lions, was magnificent. Dalley pieced together ancient texts to reveal a garden that recreated a mountain landscape. It boasted terraces, pillared walkways, exotic plants and trees, and rippling streams.

    The seven wonders appear in classical texts written centuries after the garden was created, but the 1st-century historian Josephus was the only author to name Nebuchadnezzar as creator of the Hanging Garden, Dalley said. She found extensive confusion over names and places in ancient texts, including the Book of Judith, muddling the two kings.

    Little of Nineveh – near present-day Mosul – has so far been explored, because it has been judged too dangerous until now to conduct excavations.

    • Pay Attention to God’s Prophetic Word for Our Day (‎10 occurrences)
      • 15, 16. What did Nebuchadnezzar do for Babylon, and what happened when he boasted about its greatness?

        15 By completing Babylon’s massive double walls that his father had started to build, Nebuchadnezzar made the capital city seemingly impregnable.

        ...

        To satisfy his Median queen, who longed for the hills and forests of her homeland, Nebuchadnezzar reportedly built the hanging gardens—one of the seven wonders of the ancient world.

    With the usual enticements, the well proven smooth phrases used to enroll new recruits, some of these Indian trackers were then enlisted. Once enlisted, an amazing thing happened. Whatever talents and skills they had possessed on the reservation seemed to mysteriously disappear, as recruit after recruit failed to perform as expected in the field.

    Hair is an extension of the nervous system, it can be correctly seen as exteriorized nerves, a type of highly evolved 'feelers' or 'antennae' that transmit vast amounts of important information to the brain stem, the limbic system, and the neocortex

    I cannot confirm that this article is accurate, but it surely provides an interesting read.

    Quote

    But according to David Bach, author of the Finish Rich book series and founder of www.FinishRich.com, the financial downturn changed these perceptions. "Good debt and bad debt is almost a myth that we were sold for 20 years," Bach says. "There's just debt. For the most part, debt is basically bad and difficult. It comes down to the interest rate."

    Quote

    Debt now seems to fall into two new categories: better debt and worse debt. Better debt is a loan with a low interest rate used to purchase something that adds value. Worse debt is used to buy a depreciating asset or debt used as a substitute for cash. A home loan, according to Bach, is an example of better debt.

    Adriana Cardoso thought her daughter was joking when she claimed she felt like there were "something moving around" inside her gums. A few days later, mother and daughter found out it was no laughing matter, but a horrific oral condition that produced a shocking extraction.

    "There were 15 maggots in her mouth, so we videoed the removal for our records as it is a rare occurrence," a spokesman for the dental clinic said, according to Medical Daily. "We also wanted to show the girl's family what had happened and warn others."

    . A severe form of arthritis, gout is caused by an excess of uric acid, which creates crystals around joints, the Mayo Clinic says.
    "Crystals" may not sound like that big a deal — but they are no joke. Uric acid buildups are mostly caused by high levels of purine, which in turn are brought about by what some people would call a lavish lifestyle. Here are a few ways to counteract high intakes of purine.
