Event Update For 2016-09-16





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.

    Ex-Googler Sebastian Thrun says the going rate for self-driving talent is $10 million per person
    http://www.recode.net/2016/9/17/12943214/sebastian-thrun-self-driving-talent-pool

    “Uber has just bought a half-a-year-old company [Otto] with 70 employees for almost $700 million,” Thrun said. “If you look at GM, they spent $1 billion on its acquisition of Cruise. These are mostly talent acquisitions. The going rate for talent these days is $10 million.”

    Thrun means per person, a lofty number which is likely to be getting even larger with time and even more demand.

    At least 4 dead, dozens hurt after bus carrying football players hits overpass
    http://www.foxnews.com/us/2016/09/18/at-least-4-dead-dozens-hurt-after-bus-carrying-football-players-hits-overpass.html

    State troopers say four people were killed and more than 40 were injured in a charter bus crash Saturday near Rockingham, N.C.

    Between 40 and 50 people were hurt in the crash and all have been transported to hospitals, Hamlet Fire and Rescue Chief Calvin White told WBTV in Charlotte. The extent of their injuries was not immediately known.

    "It appears the bus experienced a tire failure," Lt. Jeff Gordon of the State Highway Patrol told WRAL. "The front tire blew causing that bus to travel into the median. It then struck a guardrail."

  3. Mosquito-borne Mayaro virus detected in Haiti for the first time
    https://www.sott.net/article/328578-Mosquito-borne-Mayaro-virus-detected-in-Haiti-for-the-first-time

    University of Florida researchers have identified a patient in Haiti with a serious mosquito-borne illness that has never before been reported in the Caribbean nation.

    Known as "Mayaro virus," it is closely related to chikungunya virus and was first isolated in Trinidad in 1954. Most reported cases, however, have been confined to small outbreaks in the Amazon. Whether this case signals the start of a new outbreak in the Caribbean region is currently unknown. [more]

    Alabama police make first arrest in string of clown-related threats
    http://www.foxnews.com/us/2016/09/18/alabama-police-make-first-arrest-in-string-clown-related-threats.html

    Authorities claimed their first win against Clownpocalypse as Flomaton, Alabama police may have finally put the brakes on a clown reign of terror spreading across the South.

    After a series of threatening posts on the “Flomo Clown” Facebook page, authorities in the Alabama town took two juveniles and one adult into custody on Thursday in connection with the incident.

    Makayla Smith, allegedly the clowns’ “ringleader” was apprehended and will likely be charged with making a terroristic threat [more]

    Flame bursts over Torrance refinery, prompting hours-long road closure
    http://www.latimes.com/local/lanow/la-me-ln-torrance-refinery-flare-20160918-snap-story.html

    A power outage in the northern part of the city had caused issues for some of the units at the plant, Millea said, prompting what he called an “unplanned flaring event.”

    To stabilize its systems, the plant sent hydrocarbon products to the flare, causing a large flame to burst over the plant’s metal smoke stacks — similar to the way a giant lighter might function, Millea said. [wtF?!]

    [this is a perfect example of cascading failure from a power outage - good thing it stopped there]

    The refinery, which was sold this summer to PBF Energy, has experienced some notable problems in the recent past. In June, three workers were injured at the refinery when a 300-ton crane collapsed. Near the same time, a breakdown in some units triggered a flaring event, a company spokesman said at the time.

    In February 2015, an explosion injured four workers and destroyed the plant's pollution-control system, shutting the refinery for months. Exxon Mobil was fined $566,600 [that's about 5 cents to them] in connection with the explosion. [geez!]
