Today is a good day to start a thread about Mount Airy Casino Resort. It may take a while to cover all the territory.

Let’s start with some ancient history.

 Even Mr. DeNaples priest, Father Joseph Sica, got into hot water over his ties to the Bufalino crime family. Tsk, tsk, Father Joey.
“William D'Elia, 62, became the latest alleged American Mafia leader to turn government informant as he was sentenced Monday to nine years in prison for witness tampering and conspiracy to launder drug money.”

D’Elia was the head of the Bufalino crime family.
In 2009, Louis DeNaples was forced to sell his stake

“DeNaples relinquished control of the casino in 2009 to avoid prosecution on charges he lied to the Pennsylvania Gaming Control Board about his affiliations with organized crime figures when he applied for his gaming license.
Luckily DeNaples was able to sell his share to his daughter Lisa DeNaples, who operates the casino.

https://t.co/OpaA1KfxVQ
In 2012 the resort petitions the gaming board to allow two of Lisa’s siblings to join its board. They also ask that their dad Louis be allowed to remain its financial guarantor.

The Office of Enforcement Counsel disagreed.

https://t.co/tHonLyI6HF
Some six months later, the matter of Louis DeNaples lack of a gaming license being in conflict with his role as a guarantor was resolved gracefully, as he exited as a guarantor.

https://t.co/1CScG1fpoN
Lisa DeNaples did a bang up job of making improvements to the resort, landing a AAA Four Diamond Award, opening a Guy Fieri branded restaurant, and putting in a ginormous swimming pool. Sounds fun!

https://t.co/444Oi0Kz27
Still, Louis wasn’t happy with the decision that prevented him from earning anything from the casino. He was barred from receiving any payments, including to businesses he owned that might provide services to Mount Airy. He lost his 2016 case.

Boohoo.

https://t.co/OpaA1KfxVQ
Also in 2012, Louis deNaples was forced to step down from his role as the chairman of First National Community Bancorp.
However, in 2013 the federal appeals court reversed the decision and DeNaples was allowed to remain on FNCB’s board.

[I was today years old when I learned there is a Mafia Wiki.]

https://t.co/NedP5Mpdik
Talk about ancient history, Mafia Wiki!

“In 1978, DeNaples pleaded no contest to a conspiracy charge of defrauding the government of more than $500,000 in contracts relating to the cleanup and recovery of the City of Scranton in the aftermath of Hurricane Agnes.”
We’ll want to remember that in 1978 DeNaples defrauded the government when we get to 2020, gentle readers.

But we still have a few gaps to fill before we arrive at the present day.
Because dear gentle readers, it is time to hold onto your hats for his 2013 book review of the Quiet Don that says Bufalino was involved in the Bay of Pigs, ordered the killing of Jimmy Hoffa, and, oh yeah, had DeNaples bribe Pennsylvania governor Rendell to change gambling laws.
This is tangential to our DeNaples thread, yet noteworthy.

La Cosa Nostra founder Bufalino allegedly ordered the hit on Hoffa “because of concerns the one-time union kingpin might spill details of his involvement in the Castro plot.”

💥

https://t.co/c2z5V9aUdW
It helps contextualize this statement,

“DeNaples, Birkbeck alleges, was initially  granted a casino license to operate a slots parlor in the Poconos after corralling business associates to donate $600,000 to Rendell's campaign coffers.”

Is bribe too harsh? Shall we use bundle?
Lest there be any confusion as to the credibility of Birkbeck’s reporting, we should observe he was sued for defamation by a murderer whose dad was DeNaples bestie.

This article 😅

https://t.co/B0bA47yT1p
Now, this tale from the far-right American Spectator is an eyebrow raiser, saying DeNaples gives generously to the Catholic Church & his former accountant’s son is now Monsignor Rossi at the National Shrine

😟

https://t.co/9v79LlMHFP
The National Shrine is a whole different rabbit hole. From Neumayr’s gay-bashing leg work we see that DeNaples it well off, to say the least.

🚨 He owns his own bank (probably more.) 🚨
Before we return to the bank, a quick foray into campaign contributions. Here we see the convicted felon giving $15K to the Dem DA candidate in 2016 https://t.co/eVSouuzWLU
Here’s DeNaples giving Kane $25K to drop an inquiry by revoking subpoenas in 2013, reported in 2015.

https://t.co/gs9wwQShdn
Here is Zappalla returning the $15K

https://t.co/yMqupcBOp9
Here is DeNaples’ businesses giving former Republican governor Tom Corbett $42,500, as reported in 2015.

Corbett lost his 2014 re-election bid.

https://t.co/x1f8BItgsA
So you get the picture.

Louis DeNaples, who founded Mount Airy Casino Resort, got forced to pass the biz to his kids, & then started throwing around big bucks to politicians of all stripes. & why shouldn’t he?

He’s the chairman of the board at $FNCB.

https://t.co/irvnqCrkDl
It’s your basic full service bank, doing about $40 million a year in revenue, $FNCB trading around $6, with 17 locations in Pennsylvania, per this rundown off the Seeking Alpha app.

You can see the bank changed its name in 2016, but let’s not delve into that just now.
Instead, let’s contemplate the first and fourth paragraphs of this 17 day old Reuters story on the Main Street loan program which is part of the corona virus stimulus, from the CARES Act, I believe.

https://t.co/4CBUGUyCiU
“The Federal Reserve … central bank disclosed the largest loan so far went to a resort in Pennsylvania’s Pocono Mountains.”

“The largest - $50 million - was to Mount Airy #1 LLC, operator of the Mount Airy Casino Resort”... made by none other than FNCB!
And there you have it, folks.

The biggest ever Main Street recovery loan went to a mobbed up Pennsylvania casino & it was bankrolled by the bank chaired by the casino founder, DeNaples.

They are laundering money in plain sight & that money belongs helping small businesses.

JWALAMUKHI TRIPURASUNDARI, UTHANAHALLI, MYSURU (KAR)
#bharatmandir

Jwalamukhi Tripursundari is believed to be the sister of Devi Chamundeshwari, the presiding deity of Mysuru
It is also that she represents the flaming mouth of Jalandhara, the demon whom Shiva crushed to death.


When Devi Chamundeswari was fighting Mahishasura, she observed that from every drop of blood that spilled out of Mahishasura, another demon was born. So she created Tripurasundari to ensure that no blood dripped from Mahishasura.


Tripura Sundari means beauty of the three worlds.
The murti was installed during Wodeyar rule. An utsava murti made of pancha loha is kept in the sanctum sanctorum.
Another shrine here is dedicated to Siddeshwara / Shiva surrounded by a beautiful wooden Mantapa.

#தினம்_ஒரு_திருவாசகம்
தொல்லை இரும்பிறவிச் சூழும் தளை நீக்கி
அல்லல் அறுத்து ஆனந்தம் ஆக்கியதே – எல்லை
மருவா நெறியளிக்கும் வாதவூர் எங்கோன்
திருவாசகம் என்னும் தேன்

பொருள்:
1.எப்போது ஆரம்பித்தது என அறியப்படமுடியாத தொலை காலமாக (தொல்லை)

2. இருந்து வரும் (இரும்)


3.பிறவிப் பயணத்திலே ஆழ்த்துகின்ற (பிறவி சூழும்)

4.அறியாமையாகிய இடரை (தளை)

5.அகற்றி (நீக்கி),

6.அதன் விளைவால் சுகதுக்கமெனும் துயரங்கள் விலக (அல்லல் அறுத்து),

7.முழுநிறைவாய்த் தன்னுளே இறைவனை உணர்த்துவதே (ஆனந்த மாக்கியதே),

8.பிறந்து இறக்கும் காலவெளிகளில் (எல்லை)

9.பிணைக்காமல் (மருவா)

10.காக்கும் மெய்யறிவினைத் தருகின்ற (நெறியளிக்கும்),

11.என் தலைவனான மாணிக்க வாசகரின் (வாதவூரெங்கோன்)

12.திருவாசகம் எனும் தேன் (திருவா சகமென்னுந் தேன்)

முதல்வரி: பிறவி என்பது முன்வினை விதையால் முளைப்பதோர் பெருமரம். அந்த ‘முன்வினை’ எங்கு ஆரம்பித்தது எனச் சொல்ல இயலாது. ஆனால் ‘அறியாமை’ ஒன்றே ஆசைக்கும்,, அச்சத்துக்கும் காரணம் என்பதால், அவையே வினைகளை விளைவிப்பன என்பதால், தொடர்ந்து வரும் பிறவிகளுக்கு, ‘அறியாமையே’ காரணம்

அறியாமைக்கு ஆரம்பம் கிடையாது. நமக்கு ஒரு பொருளைப் பற்றிய அறிவு எப்போதிருந்து இல்லை? அதைச் சொல்ல முடியாது. அதனாலேதான் முதலடியில், ஆரம்பமில்லாத அஞ்ஞானத்தை பிறவிகளுக்குக் காரணமாகச் சொல்லியது. ஆனால் அறியாமை, அறிவின் எழுச்சியால், அப்போதே முடிந்து விடும்.

Ivor Cummins has been wrong (or lying) almost entirely throughout this pandemic and got paid handsomly for it.

He has been wrong (or lying) so often that it will be nearly impossible for me to track every grift, lie, deceit, manipulation he has pulled. I will use...


... other sources who have been trying to shine on light on this grifter (as I have tried to do, time and again:


Example #1: "Still not seeing Sweden signal versus Denmark really"... There it was (Images attached).
19 to 80 is an over 300% difference.

Example #2 - "Yes, I'm comparing the Noridcs / No, you cannot compare the Nordics."

TRUMP: "I've decided to eat babies."

PEOPLE: "He can't eat babies, that's super illegal."

TRUMP, on TV, eating babies, not even cooking them first: "People are saying that I really am the best baby-eater, folks."

NYT: "Trump Vs. Babies: The Rhetoric On Both Sides Must Stop"

Jeff Flake tweets: "It is a sad day in America when this callous man can eat babies live on TV"

Jeff Flake, 10 seconds later, votes to help him install a series of 4,000 new judges that are very, very pro-babyphagia.

Judge Kavanaugh, found drunk in a Capitol Hill closet: "I LIKE BEER. OKAY? I LIKE BEER AND I LIKE BABIES AND THAT'S NOT SO WRONG. THAT'S RIGHT. I LIKE BABIES DIPPED IN BEER. I JUST DIP EM. IN THE BEER. THE BABIES. THE BABIES I EAT. OKAY? THAT'S AMERICA."

Mike Pence, wringing his hands about the baby-eating: "We must take care of our children. Our youngest must be protected on this troubling day."

Mike Pence then invites a Baby Chef to say a prayer.

Twitter Users: "It's a distraction technique! Trump eating babies is trying to DISTRACT YOU from ALL THE OTHER HORRORS, which are themselves distractions from the BABY-EATING. It's DISTRACTIONS ALL THE WAY DOWN."

Trump: *eats tons of babies at a rally*

*literal tons of babies*

Hello Dear Tweeples!

It’s Siddhars time of the week! Last week I shared story of Guru (Machamuni or Yogi Matsyendranath), this week I bring you information on his Shishya.

#Thread on Gorakanathar Siddhar.

@LostTemple7


His origin story is interesting, though I couldn’t verify it’s authenticity, so not sharing the story here. He’s shishya of Machamuni Siddhar and also learnt from Agasthiya Siddhar.

@HelloNNewman @RajiIndustani @Kishoreciyer1

Unlike other Siddhars, he is depicted as either with a Tiger or seated & wearing Tiger skin. While I couldn’t find any explanation for this. My interpretation is as follows:

Tiger is a predator that lurks around and attacks unexpectedly.


Our 5 indriyas and 5 vikitis also similar to Tiger, they lurk around and attacks our thoughts when we’re least expecting. Gorakkar is said to have mastered these aspects, thus to denote this, he shown with Tiger.

@Itishree001 @VarierSangitha @jananisampath

Gorakanathar or Gorakshnath (as he’s known in the Nath Sampraday) is celebrated Guru in both Northern and Southern part of India. He’s one of the NavNath in Nath Sampraday and also 18 Siddhars of Tamil tradition. During his life, he’s travelled Indian subcontinent extensively +

Thread: History of Mogadishu and it’s conquest by Imaam Al Yaqubi


One of the First Imaams of the Hiraab Imamate was Mohamed Ibn Imaam Ahmed ibn Imam Ahmed Ibn Imaam Mohamoud Ibn Imaam Cumar Halol Al Yacquubi (Abgaal) during the year 1097 hijri.


After the collapse of the Ajuuran Abgaal nomads from the interior had started moving to take over the strategic port town of Mogadishu which was then under the muzzafar dynasty. By the 1600s Abgaal warriors had captured the city and set up their base in shingaani.


Mogadishu at the time was a large and well known port town. The Abgaal clan taking over control allowed them to obtain political power and world wide recognition.


Under Imaam Yaqubi’s time in power it’s reported that French merchants had arrived at the port in 1701
and stayed for 11 days. They had attempted to take the city but were successfully repulsed.

Andy McCabe has some explaining to do.


Andrew McCabe was reported to the FBI’s Office of Public Affairs for making an unauthorized leak of classified info to the media about @GenFlynn in early February 2017.

If you’ve wondered exactly who it was who leaked the classified info from that intelligence report on @GenFlynn’s phone calls with then-Russian ambassador Kislyak to the media, you are right now seeing a huge honking clue who it was.

To those responding to this info by sneering "Nothing's gonna happen":

Up.

Your.

Game.

You just might be too stupid to be following me.

The then-Deputy Director of the FBI get's caught targeting @GenFlynn with an illegal leak so he can 'investigated' by Peter Strzok?

Now that we know it was McCabe who set up Flynn for a fake 'perjury' investigation by his pet attack dog, Peter Strzok, the next name that's going to surface is...Joseph Pientka.
