Event Update For 2017-07-19





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.

2017-07-19 - Huge explosion/lightning event goes on for five minutes and scares people in Osogbo (Nigeria):
http://tribuneonlineng.com/strange-lightening-causes-stir-osogbo/
http://www.sott.net/article/356940-Strange-lightning-causes-a-stir-in-Osogbo-Nigeria

Quote: "The incident, which occurred around 9.30pm created fear as some people residing in these areas, who also claimed they heard deafening sound similar to resounding explosion ran outside their houses to ascertain the cause of the strange development."

Quote: "According to her, 'we also heard some continuous sound, like when an electric transformer is humming at a frenetic pace. Some people were saying maybe Jesus had come. However, not quite five minutes later, the great lightening fizzled away and darkness resurfaced.'"

Note: The explosion could have been lightning igniting a plume of methane and/or hydrogen sulfide. Five minutes of crackling transformer sound though - got me there. But hydrogen sulfide is the best superconductor ever discovered by mankind, so perhaps it had something to do with that AND the explosion sound...

2017-07-19 - Methane oozing from melting permafrost in Canada, ground starting to resemble swiss cheese:
http://insideclimatenews.org/news/18072017/arctic-permafrost-melting-methane-emissions-geologic-sources-study
http://www.fasterthanexpected.com/2017/07/19/methane-seeps-out-as-arctic-permafrost-starts-to-resemble-swiss-cheese/
http://phys.org/news/2017-07-permafrost-greenhouse-gas.html
http://www.nature.com/articles/s41598-017-05783-2

Quote: "Global warming may be unleashing new sources of heat-trapping methane from layers of oil and gas that have been buried deep beneath Arctic permafrost for millennia. As the Earth's frozen crust thaws, some of that gas appears to be finding new paths to the surface through permafrost that's starting to resemble Swiss cheese in some areas, scientists said. In a study released today, the scientists used aerial sampling of the atmosphere to locate methane sources from permafrost along a 10,000 square-kilometer swath of the Mackenzie River Delta in northwestern Canada, an area known to have oil and gas desposits. Deeply thawed pockets of permafrost, the research suggests, are releasing 17 percent of all the methane measured in the region, even though the emissions hotspots only make up 1 percent of the surface area, the scientists found."

2017-07-19 - Indicators of geothermal heat under the Greenland glacier:
http://robinwestenra.blogspot.com/2017/07/geothermal-heat-under-greenland-glacier.html

Quote: "Steamers rising from the Greenland glacier could be a sign of geothermal heat under the glacier. If so, it is much about ideas and theories about the Earth's crust in Greenland, according to volcanologists. 'Men have not noticed this until now. There's something going on there. We just do not know what it is,' says Haraldur SigurĂ°sson, volcanologist, who discusses the steam bulbs on his website."

Note: Uh huh, that's heat rising from BELOW. There's nothing we can do about that...

2017-07-19 - Humans have created a billion elephants worth of plastic:
http://www.lansingstatejournal.com/story/news/nation/2017/07/19/humans-have-produced-18-2-trillion-pounds-plastic-since-50-s-thats-equal-size-1-billion-elephants/494082001/

Quote: "Humans have produced 18.2 trillion pounds of plastics since large-scale production began in the early 1950s and we've put most of it in the trash. That weight is equivalent to 1 billion elephants or 25,000 Empire State Buildings. Nearly 80% of that plastic now resides in landfills or the natural environment, according to a study published Wednesday. And we’re just getting started: Scientists say that by 2050, another 26.5 trillion pounds will be produced worldwide."

Note: I doubt anyone's gonna be making plastic - or anything else - in 2050. Problem solved!

    It's Greek name Phobos means fear it is the smallest moon in our solar system with a large monolith and many leading scientists believe it to be a craft
    http://www.thebigwobble.org/2017/07/its-greek-name-phobos-means-fear-it-is.html

    the most astonishing fact about Phobos is it has a monolith.

    Former astronaut Buzz Aldrin thinks the public would be interested in the monolith on Phobos, and leading Russian scientists believe Phobos is man made.

    On March 28th 1989 Russian ground controllers suddenly and unexpectedly lost contact with their spacecraft which was shadowing Phobos.

    The last photograph taken by the space craft contained an object close to Phobos which should not have been there, picture below [see article; more].

    After 2008, it became clear that history's largest debt bubble was imploding. So the de facto Idiocracy looked around to find anyone, and I do mean anyone, who would rescue them from certain fate. Enter Bernankenstein, student of the Great Depression. He's the genius who figured out how to save a debt bubble by making it even bigger. In other words, he wasn't a student of the Depression, he was a student of Dungeons and Dragons. 

    And so on from there whereby crack addicts became city mayors and casino owners became presidents. Only the dumbest and most nefarious people enter politics now because their sole job is to package and feed sugar coated bullshit to the Soylent masses self-medicating themselves into fucking oblivion.

    TRUMP CASINO CALIFORNICATION

    The VIX just traded at the lowest level since 1993, and according to the linked article, the average since 1993 is exactly 20. So, the VIX is currently at the rock bottom end of the range and a return to mid-point of the range is now a wipeout market scenario.

    In other words, returning to a level of volatility seen four times in the past two years (blue line) is no longer an option:

  4. Alrighty then, back to work. A LOT of shit is happening - environmentally it's hard to keep up, what with that umbrella term consisting of innumerable sub-groups of topics that all inter-relate:

    solar radiation, atmospheric composition (and pollution), storms and weather phenomena (again, a rich sub-topic laden term), NATURAL catastrophes (like earthquakes, landslides, tornadoes, pingos, etc),
    food production, insect populations (locusts AND butterflies), mammal populations (including whales and dolphins and land species, oh yeah, and human - so there's all THAT, with societies, countries, policies, etc.), the ocean situation (everything from chemistry and biology to Fukushima, coral bleaching, etc.), and more!

    Then we have economic troubles LOOMING - it's looking more and more like the collapse of the world banking system will trigger a whole bunch of other associated problems (like war, supply chain breakdown, starvation, disease, rioting, the collapse of society and government - and more!).

    But HERE, we concentrate on JJFH issues, which are increasing and indicating exactly where we are with respect to being able to SURVIVE - like a bag has slowly been pulled over our heads and we're just beginning to notice . . .. Air quality ain't what it once was - in fact, we've been running all these exhaust producing vehicles and systems into our (somewhat giant, but FINITE) atmosphere (like Earth's closed garage). Well, we've been doing that for several HUNDRED YEARS, and it's catching up to us now.

    We're seeing HEATING FROM BELOW somehow - maybe the Mayans knew something we don't. For whatever reason, it's happening ALONG WITH the polluted atmosphere MANKIND has CAUSED via the Industrial Revolution, which causes it's own problems, and may have even triggered that heating from below somehow (or vice versa).

    So many weird incidents are happening in the JJFH realm that it's totally fascinating (to me anyway) - like reading the mile markers on the road that you know ends with a cliff. But I like to keep up with all the rest of it too, and Jonny's kind enough to allow me to post other topics here (to the point that i'm probably a big pain in the ass).

    Thanks Jonny.

    The Grand American Collapse Approacheth - James Howard Kunstler
    https://www.sott.net/article/357033-The-Grand-American-Collapse-Approacheth

    The ObamaCare reform fiasco looks like a tipping point toward a strain of toxic political paralysis that might literally kill the government as we've known it. Over the many months of debate, congress never even got around to raising the salient issue: that the 18-or-so-percent of the economy "health care" represents consists largely of outright racketeering. Well, they sure blew that one. The major parties are disintegrating before our eyes, despite the seeming sense of decorum that senators present on TV. The public may seem to be mentally on vacation, snoozing on the beach in the midsummer doldrums, but something vicious is in the wind offshore.

    I'd actually go further now than the "soft coup d'Ă©tat" scenario that has Trump run over by the 25thamendment. It will happen, of course, but it will not satisfy anybody. Mike Pence will prove to be as ineffectual and unpopular as Trump, and he will be drowning in financial and fiscal problems, and he will get no help from the legislature in resolving any of it, and before too long there may be a general in the White House - or attempting to run things from someplace else, if he can. The whole nauseating spectacle will be attended by violent popular revolt of region against region and tribe against tribe in a great civil explosion of long-suppressed angst.

    Too many nasty forces are vectoring in on the scene to overthrow the dream state America has been languishing in. Most of them involve money (or "money") and the questions of how can we possibly keep paying for the way we live in this country, and who exactly has been fobbing off with the former wealth of every rusted and busted community in the land? It's going to start in the stock and bond markets and it will be soon. And then the US Treasury will destroy the dollar trying (again) to save the banks. And the bank accounts will be frozen. And the loans will stop being paid. And the SNAP cards are going to stop working, and pretty soon the just-in-time deliveries to the supermarkets, and the resupply to the gas stations, and there won't be much that Mike Pence can do about it. He'll be shoved aside and the military will have to try to restore order in the land. When they do, it will not be the same land we sang about back in the fifth grade. [more]

    The Union of Concerned Scientists, a non-profit science advocacy group, called the nomination "illegal" Thursday, citing the US Code description of the position. US law states the appointed person shall be "from among distinguished scientists with specialized training or significant experience in agricultural research, education, and economics. Clovis has no such training or experience," the group said on their website, "and is therefore legally and scientifically unqualified to direct nearly $3 billion a year in research grants." [more]

    Neural network software: Cell phones are about to become more powerful than you could imagine
    https://www.sott.net/article/357027-Neural-network-software-Cell-phones-are-about-to-become-more-powerful-than-you-could-imagine

    Many people don't realize that some of the most significant technological breakthroughs in recent years, like voice and facial recognition software, autonomous driving systems, and image recognition software, have not actually been designed by humans, but by computers. All of these advanced software programs have been the result of neural networks, popularly referred to as "deep learning."

    Neural networks are modeled loosely after the human brain and learn like them in similar ways by processing large amounts of data, along with algorithms fed to the networks by programmers. A neural net is then able to teach itself to perform tasks by analyzing the training data. "You essentially have software writing software," says Jen-Hsun Huang, CEO of graphics processing leader Nvidia.

    Research in the area of deep learning is advancing so quickly that neural networks are now able to dream and can even communicate with each other using inhuman cryptographic language indecipherable to humans and other computers. The only drawback to the technology is that the networks require a lot of memory and power to operate, but MIT associate professor of electrical engineering and computer science Vivienne Sze and her colleagues have been working on a solution that could enable the powerful software to operate on cell phones.

    https://www.sott.net/article/357039-Multiple-drugs-including-Prozac-and-cocaine-found-in-Puget-Sound-salmon

    [so are they still edible?]

    81 drugs and personal-care products were detected in the flesh of salmon caught in the Puget Sound.

    Some of the drugs and contaminates found include Flonase, Aleve, Tylenol, Paxil, Valium, Zoloft, Tagamet, OxyContin, Darvon, Nicotine, caffeine, Fungicides, antiseptics, anticoagulants, as well as plenty of antibiotics.

    Intriguingly, the researchers are not concerned about the effect the cocktail of drugs will have on the humans who eat the fish, but they are concerned about how the chemicals are affecting wildlife. Reportedly, Meador's other recent work has shown that juvenile chinook salmon migrate through contaminated estuaries in Puget Sound and die at twice the rate of fish elsewhere.

    That seems like cause for concern. Unfortunately, it not likely the contamination will let up. According to one study, 97,000 pounds of drugs and chemicals could be entering the Puget Sound each year. [more]
