http://www.live5news.com/story/31627106/family-pets-perish-in-port-royal-house-fire

Quote: "Firefighters arriving on the scene found a car beneath a carport on fire and the blaze quickly spreading to the home. The fire, which had cut off the family’s escape route, forced the family to climb through a window to escape the flames, the statement said."

Note: I've warned about this kind of fire many times. The problem with a vehicle that ignites outside the home is that the fire may spread and cut off escape routes before any smoke detectors INSIDE the home start blaring, which is why numerous people have died in similar fires. It seems very risky to park a vehicle near your home now. These people were lucky, although they probably don't feel very lucky right now, being homeless and carless...

Quote: "Around 1 p.m. the fire alert was raised to the highest, fifth, level as the flames had spread to the third, fourth and fifth floors of the five-story-building, and reached the roof."

Quote: "The ministry said the fire will not affect its core operations since the military departments have long moved to the new headquarters. It said the old building on Znamenka Street houses the departments in charge of procurement and services."

Note: Hah, they make it sound like it's trivial and unimportant to lose procurement operations, and I guess it is, as long as Russia's military doesn't need any food, fuel, weapons, ammunition, vehicles, uniforms, toilet paper, radios, computers or services. They're gonna be scrambling big-time to get procurement operational again...

2016-04-08 - Mysterious explosion shakes homes on the coast near Wilmington (North Carolina):
http://wncn.com/2016/04/08/sonic-boom-reported-off-north-carolina-coast/

Note: They try hard to blame this on a sonic boom and show some stuff on radar and say it's chaff. Dunno, could be, but maybe not. This isn't far from where a huge explosion shook homes last year, followed shortly by a massive number of fish washing ashore dead, mentioned in the 2015-03-18 update. Could be this was the same thing. That explosion was very likely a large bubble of gas breaching the surface of the ocean and exploding, and either the explosion killed the fish (like Earth's version of dynamite-fishing, but on a grand scale) or the gas(es) suffocated and/or poisoned the fish on the way to the surface, or some of both.

There are 5 trillion pounds of explosively flammable methane dissociating off the East Coast, which is enough methane to cause a quarter of a million 10-kiloton explosions, and that's just ONE of the methane clathrate deposits that are now dissociating on this planet. I wonder if they'll try to blame it on a sonic boom when a cloud of methane blows over the coast and destroys a populated area with a gigantic explosion and firestorm. The government has already trained for 10-kiloton explosions hitting the East Coast, in Manhattan, mentioned in the 2014-10-22 update. Estimates are for 100,000 people being instantly killed...

2016-04-10 - Man, 20 to 35, found burned to death in fire pit in park in Toronto (Canada):
http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/toronto/body-fire-pit-1.3529454
http://www.citynews.ca/2016/04/11/video-north-york-residents-rattled-after-body-found-in-fire-pit/
http://news.nationalpost.com/toronto/police-trying-to-identify-young-man-found-dead-in-smouldering-fire-pit-at-north-toronto-park
http://www.thestar.com/news/crime/2016/04/10/body-found-in-northwood-park-fire-pit.html

Note: A man just fell into a fire pit and burned to death at 12:30 AM at home in Arab (Alabama) too, mentioned in the 2016-04-05 update. Matter is adsorbing hydrogen sulfide when it blows by, especially porous matter, like wood, cardboard, paper, etc. Then when that matter burns, some residual hydrogen sulfide may be in the smoke, and that smoke can kill you or knock you unconscious. When you collapse unconscious, you tend to fall forward as your knees buckle, so if you're facing a fire pit, in you go, and then even if you were only knocked unconscious, you burn to death anyway. You'll never know whether matter is or isn't contaminated except by learning the hard way: if you burn something and you die then it was probably contaminated...

Quote: "A town official said the fire burned through the entire Quinlan Brothers plant, from the west to the east end. The smoke was so intense that it could be seen in satellite imagery. Fire crews from as far away as Bay Roberts, more than 90 kilometres south of Bay de Verde, were dispatched to the community on Monday."

http://www.wsvn.com/story/31739068/plane-believed-to-have-crashed-in-western-broward-near-i-75

Quote: "According to BSO, several eyewitnesses contacted them at around 5:45 p.m., Friday, saying they saw something fall out of the sky. However, Broward Sheriff Fire Rescue reached out to area airports, and no towers had reported any missing or distressed planes. An airboat was sent shortly after to search the area, as well as a BSO helicopter. Neither found any signs of debris or victims."

Note: That might have been an atmospheric gas plume igniting. When that happens, the fire will race from one side of the plume to the other, making it appear as if something is in motion. If a plume burns from the top to the bottom then it'll look like something falling from the sky except that they won't find anything, as in this case...
