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.

We're on track, at a little over one per day, on average, to have over 365 homes explode and burn in 2016 by year's end.
ReplyDeleteI think it can be said that more cars burn up in Britain then anywhere else, on a daily basis.
Today, we'll start with the wide view and work our way down to the planet.
'Something is happening' - Outer solar system getting weirder
https://www.sott.net/article/332319-Something-is-happening-Outer-solar-system-getting-weirder
Several newly discovered objects on the outskirts of the solar system suggest that something strange is afoot. While some scientists point to the odd behavior of the newfound residents as further proof for the existence of the hypothetical Planet Nine (a yet-unseen super Earth proposed to inhabit the outskirts) not everyone is convinced.
The new inhabitants include a small icy world with one of the longest known orbits and several smaller objects clustered together extremely far from the sun.
The newest of these objects is L91, an icy world that can travel as far from the sun as 1430 astronomical units (AU), or 1,430 times the Earth-sun distance, one of the longest known orbital periods. L91 never draws closer to the sun than 50 AUs, farther away than even Pluto.
And L91's distant path is shifting. [more]

An english-speaking teenager has woken up from a coma speaking fluent Spanish
https://www.sott.net/article/332322-An-english-speaking-teenager-has-woken-up-from-a-coma-speaking-fluent-Spanish
[heh, new way to learn a language]
A 16-year-old in Atlanta has made headlines this week after waking up from a coma speaking fluent Spanish.
Rueben Nsemoh is a native English speaker who knew some basic Spanish before he suffered a concussion during a soccer game, but when he woke up from the injury, he was able to speak Spanish "like a native", and struggled with English.
"It started flowing out," Rueben told Melissa Chan over at TIME. "I felt like it was like second nature for me. I wasn't speaking my English right, and every time I tried to speak it I would have a seizure."
"It was weird," he added. "It was not scary at all. I actually liked it a lot. It was really unique to me."
In the weeks since, he's slowly been regaining his ability to speak English, and his Spanish skills are fading, but doctors are struggling to explain exactly what happened. [more]

Physics tweak solves five of the biggest problems in one go

something is still missing from the standard model. “Presumably we need some new particles,” says Mikhail Shaposhnikov at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Lausanne. “The question is, how many new particles do we need?”
Some models, like supersymmetry, add hundreds of particles – none of which have been spotted at colliders like the LHC. But SMASH adds only six: three neutrinos, a fermion and a field that includes two particles. [more]

Theater of democracy: Chicago voters casting ballots from beyond the grave
https://www.sott.net/article/332369-Theater-of-democracy-Chicago-voters-casting-ballots-from-beyond-the-grave
Susie Sallee was buried in 1998. Yet records show she voted in Chicago 12 years later.
Victor Crosswell died in 1994, but records show he's voted six times since then.
And then there's Floyd Stevens. Records show he's voted 11 times since his death in 1993.
In all, the analysis showed 119 dead people have voted a total of 229 times in Chicago in the last decade.
[though statistically insignificant here - it's the fact that votes are regularly changed by programmed or hacked computer voting machines that has me worried that Trump's assertion that the whole thing is rigged APPEARS to be true in many cases. Then there's the gerrymandering of districts and the Electoral College issues which also "rig" the election.]
