On the afternoon of 4 August 2020, two explosions occurred at the port of the city of Beirut, the capital of Lebanon.
The second explosion was extremely powerful, and caused at least 200 deaths, 6,000 injuries, US$10–15 billion in property damage, and left an estimated 300,000 people homeless.
The event was linked to about 2,750 tonnes of ammonium nitrate – equivalent to around 1.2 kilotons of TNT
which had been confiscated by the Lebanese government from the abandoned ship MV Rhosus and then stored in the port without proper safety measures for six years.

My 1st BACON EXPLOSION. It wasn't as pretty as the ones I saw here, 67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/showthread.php?t=325570
Nevertheless it still tasted pretty good. I got a little carried away with my sausage. I used 3 lbs when I should have stayed with 2 lbs. I learned from my mistakes and so if there is a next time I will know what to improve on. I used three cheese, year old cheddar, extra sharp cheddar, and smoked Gouda. I cooked up 4 slices of bacon and broke it up and along with the cheese rolled it up in the sausage.
I used mild and hot sausage. I seasoned the sausage with some cilantro, Sweet Mesquite seasoning a little cinnamon and some Kentucky Bourbon. I sprinkled some brown sugar & smoked paprika and a little home made barbq sauce on the bacon before I put the sausage on top of it. After I rolled her all up, I slathered it all over with my homemade bourbon and molasses BarBQ sauce. Then I smoked it a little more than 4 hours. Now I didn't say she would be pretty, but she sure was good. I will work on making her pretty next time, lol.
In my neighborhood, I was afraid to leave it this long but it turned out to be the best one I shot that night.
Four Seasons Resort Jackson Hole
7680 Granite Loop Road
Teton Village, Wyoming
Jackson Hole is named after Davey Jackson, a fur trapper of the 1880's. The "hole" is the trapper's term for a high mountain valley. The town is called Jackson while Jackson Hole is the entire 60-by-20-mile valley, from the south entrance of Yellowstone National Park to Grand Teton National Park in northwestern Wyoming. As far back as 1965, the ski area's original founders, Paul McCollister and Alex Morley, had visions of a larger alpine village but never had the money or the land to create it. In 1992, Mr. McCollister, by then the full owner, sold the area to Kemmerer Resources, owned by the Kemmerer family, which dug a fortune from Wyoming's coal seams. Teton County officials feared an explosion of growth and declared a moratorium on building until a master plan for development was in place. That plan and an agreement with the United States Forest Service, which leases the mountain to the ski resort and must vet any on-slope changes, were approved in the mid-1990's. After that, Teton Village started to boom. Kemmerer Resources have spent millions to remake the slightly scruffy Teton Village, including $60 million to upgrade or replace lifts and other slope amenities.
On Feb. 6, 2001 Jackson Hole Mountain Resort and Louis Dreyfus Property Group announced plans for the Four Seasons Resort Jackson Hole to be built on a prime location in Teton Village next to the main lifts at the base of Jackson Hole Mountain Resort. Jerry Blann, president of Jackson Hotel Mountain Resort exclaimed "this is a big deal." The $100 million 125-room hotel would include a 40-unit Four Seasons Residence club - a fractional ownership development. The project development partners were LDW Resort and Hotel Development a joint venture between Louis Dreyfus Property Group Partners and the Woodbridge Company. Woodbridge is the primary investment vehicle for the Thomson family of Canada. It has a 55% stake in Thomson Reuters and a controlling interest in The Globe and Mail newspaper in Toronto. Louis Dreyfus Property Group acquires, develops and manages first-class office buildings in North America and Europe. Its current portfolio includes the 260-room Four Seasons Hotel in Washington, D.C. Louis Dreyfus Property Group is a member of the Louis Dreyfus Group, an international organization of diversified companies based in Paris, France. The president of Louis Dreyfus is Jeff Sussman who was a member of the Wyoming Business Council and owned a home in Dubois. Owner William Louis Dreyfus (Seinfeld" star Julia Louis-Dreyfus father) had a home on Fish Creek road near Wilson, Wyoming. Jackson Hole Mountain Resort provided the land and Four Seasons Hotels and Resorts provided the long term management contract. The 415,516 sq ft hotel would be Teton County's largest building.
The nine story Four Seasons Resort Jackson Hole opened in December 2003 with 158 rooms and suites. The architect Hill Glazier designed a mountain style building, with wood, stone, leather, earth tones and Native American motifs. The interior designer was Brayton Hughes. The final project cost was estimated at $125 million. Owner Louis Dreyfus hand-picked most of the pieces in the Four Seasons Jackson Hole Resort's "museum quality" art collection. with some 1,000 original pieces by 50 different artists including Juan Miro, Alberto Giacometti, Grant Wood and local residents Paul Lawrence, Laurie Thal and Melissa Malm.
Paul Cherrett, was the opening General Manager and stayed until 2007 when he left to manage the Little Nell Hotel in Aspen.
Daniel Veniez was President and CEO of LDW Hotel and Resort Developments LLC up until 2006. The properties owned were the Four Seasons Hotel and Resorts in Jackson Hole, Wyoming and Palo Alto, California. Veniez led restructuring of Four Seasons Jackson Hole which resulted in the settlement of $50-million in litigation, $138-million in real estate sales, the reduction of $70-million in debt, the elimination of $10-million in annual fix costs, the recapitalization of the Four Seasons Jackson Hole Partnership and a return to profitability in 2006. During the same period, he oversaw the design, construction and completion of the Four Seasons Silicon Valley, a $115-million five star business hotel located in Palo Alto, California. The hotel opened for business on Feb. 3, 2006.
In 2011 the Woodbridge Company sold the Four Seasons Jackson Hole and the 200 room Four Seasons Silicon Valley to Strategic Hotels and Resorts for $145 million in common stock. Strategic Hotels had asset managed both hotels on behalf of Woodbridge for the past two years. Laurence Geller, CEO of Strategic Hotels, said the cost per room was under $300,000.
In September 2015, Strategic Hotels & Resorts sold itself to The Blackstone Group for $6 billion. In March 2016, only 3 months after the Blackstone transaction closed, Anbang Insurance Group purchased Strategic for a price that was announced as $6.5 billion. Blackstone had been planning to sell individual properties in the portfolio before Anbang made an offer for the entire portfolio of 16 properties across the U.S., including the Four Seasons resorts in Scottsdale, Arizona, and Jackson Hole, Wyoming; Ritz-Carltons in Half Moon Bay and Laguna Niguel, California; San Diego’s Hotel del Coronado; and Manhattan’s JW Marriott Essex House. The deal ended up being for $5.5 billion, however, after Blackstone was forbidden by the US Government to sell the Hotel del Coronado due to its location adjacent to Naval Base Coronado.
Wu Xiaohui, the founder of Anbang, was sentenced to 18 years imprisonment on charges of fraud and embezzlement in May 2018. The Chinese government seized control of Anbang Insurance Group and the portfolio of hotels.
South Korea's Mirae Asset Global Investments entered into a definitive agreement to acquire for $5.8 billion the portfolio of 15 U.S. luxury hotels. The hotels inlcude JW Marriott Essex House in New York; The Ritz-Carlton Half Moon Bay, Westin St. Francis, Montage Laguna Beach and Four Seasons Silicon Valley in California; Fairmont Scottsdale Princess and Four Seasons Scottsdale in Arizona; Four Seasons Jackson Hole in Wyoming; and InterContinental Hotels in Chicago and Miami.
Ed Gannon has been the General Manager at the Four Seasons Jackson Hole since 2017. He previously served three years as General Manager at the Four Seasons Nevis. The Johnson and Wales University graduate also spent time with Rosewood Hotels at Jumby Bay in Antigua and Caneel Bay in St. John, US Virgin Islands

This is the site of the largest explosion ever on British soil. It occurred on 27th November 1944 when an underground munitions dump exploded at Fauld near the village of Hanbury in Staffordshire.
The crater is quoted as being 120 metres deep and 1200 metres across. Some 75 people died underground, in farms and factories on the surface, partly by water escaping from dams damaged by the explosion.
We visited it on 1st January. One chap we met in the Cock Inn, Hanbury said it blew windows out in Swadlingcote, 10 miles away, It was heard in Birmingham, 32 miles away, and detected by seismologists in Switzerland..
Shortly after 11.15am today, Tuesday 26 June 2012, police were called to Shaw following a report that homes had been seriously damaged in a large explosion.
