2016-07-11 - Significant new source of groundwater found in California, but tapping it could cause land subsidence:
http://www.desdemonadespair.net/2016/07/water-windfall-found-in-drought.html

Quote: "California’s Central Valley has three times more freshwater in underground aquifers than previously thought, drinking water that could help the state weather future drought and fortify itself against a changing climate, according to a new Stanford University study. But tapping that water, locked thousands of feet beneath the ground, will be expensive and comes with an enormous risk  — it could cause the valley floor to sink, according to the study, published Monday in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. Sinking land in the Central Valley is threatening roads, homes and other infrastructure, and reduces the amount of water some aquifers can hold."

2016-07-13 - More than 30 people sicken in the same area, some lose consciousness, in coastal Brooklyn (New York), blamed on drugs:
http://hisz.rsoe.hu/alertmap/database/?pageid=event_desc&edis_id=UEV-20160713-54070-USA

Note: Seems highly unlikely that drugs would cause 33 people in the same area and at the same time, all outdoors and near the coast, to experience these symptoms. This event looks very similar to the 22 school girls who just hallucinated and twitched and foamed at the mouth in Colombia, mentioned in the 2016-07-11 update. I guess we'll have to wait the standard 'several weeks' for toxicology results for all of these people, assuming they do such tests (very unlikely), and even then we'd have to believe what we're told by the very people who are hiding the truth, which obviously wouldn't be too wise...

Quote: "This extraordinary sight - in a video filmed of the tundra on remote Belyy Island in the Kara Sea off the Yamal Peninsula coastline - was witnessed by a scientific research expedition. Researchers Alexander Sokolov and Dorothee Ehrich spotted 15 patches of trembling or bubbling grass-covered ground. When punctured they emitted methane and carbon dioxide, according to measurements, although so far no details have been given. The reason is as yet unclear, but one possible explanation of the phenomenon is abnormal heat that caused permafrost to thaw, releasing gases."

Note: Okay, now that's ominous...
