Event Update For 2014-08-26

http://jumpingjackflashhypothesis.blogspot.com/2012/02/jumping-jack-flash-hypothesis-its-gas.html

The seas, lakes and oceans are now pluming deadly hydrogen sulfide and suffocating methane. Hydrogen sulfide is a highly toxic water-soluble heavier-than-air gas and will accumulate in low-lying areas. Methane is slightly more buoyant than normal air and so will be all around, but will tend to contaminate our atmosphere from the top down. These gases are sickening and killing oxygen-using life all around the world, including human life, as our atmosphere is increasingly poisoned. Because both gases are highly flammable and because our entire civilization is built around fire and flammable fuels, this is leading to more fires and explosions. This is an extinction level event and will likely decimate both the biosphere and human population and it is debatable whether humankind can survive this event.

A. More fires and more explosions, especially along the coasts, but everywhere generally.
B. Many more animal die-offs, of all kinds, and especially oceanic species.
C. More multiples of people will be found dead in their homes, as if they'd dropped dead.
D. More corpses found in low-lying areas, all over the world.
E. More unusual vehicular accidents.
F. Improved unemployment numbers as people die off.

2014-08-26 - Man in his 40s drops dead in carpark in coastal Exmouth (Britain):

2014-08-26 - Man in his 40s drops dead at home in coastal Exmouth (Britain), within 30 mins of the guy who dropped dead in the carpark:
http://www.exeterexpressandecho.co.uk/Police-confirm-men-40s-dead-half-hour-Exmouth/story-22833231-detail/story.html

Quote: "Officers say they are not treating either death as suspicious and are preparing a file for the coroner in both cases. They also confirmed that that the two deaths were unrelated."

Note: They haven't eliminated hydrogen sulfide poisoning in either case, so it is impossible for them to 'confirm' that these deaths are unrelated. I have no doubt that they want you to think that though. Gotta keep people oblivious as long as possible - that seems to be the goal of governments now. If that means lying to you until you're dead, I guess they're okay with that. If you're okay with that too then you need do nothing except keep your mouth shut, don't tell others, and wait your turn to drop dead or go insane or burn to death or whatever. Your call there...

http://www.cbs3springfield.com/story/26374350/house-explosion-rocks-independence-neighborhood

Quote: "Witnesses in the neighborhood said moments after the explosion there was a huge plume of white smoke and a bad smell. However, neighbors said they didn't smell anything unusual before the explosion."

Note: Unless they checked for hydrogen sulfide and/or methane then they can't rule out either or both being the cause of the explosion, which then ruptured the gas line, instead of gas leaking from the line and causing the explosion. Nobody smelled anything BEFORE the explosion, only AFTER it. And obviously no gas leak has caused ANY of the home explosions at homes that have had no gas service at all, so assuming that THIS home explosion is any different from THOSE home explosions is one Olympic-caliber example of jumping to conclusions, which competent fire investigators don't do...

Quote: "The converted warehouse on Perez St. housed some eight businesses. Workers tried to save what they could, even using a forklift to haul out pallets of supplies, furniture, toys and other items. Las Tres BBB is a construction material company and the lumber and wood products inside helped fuel the flames."

Note: Yeah, good thing they saved a bunch of pallets. Hope they saved some buckets of rusty nails too!

Quote: "The arrival of three baby anacondas at West Midlands Safari Park is being heralded as a 'miraculous virgin birth' by staff. Reptile handlers at the park believe they are the first snakes of their kind ever to be born in captivity, without any help from a male. The scientific name for the births is parthenogenesis, which is literally Greek for 'virgin birth'."
