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.

2017-12-14 - Unknown 'gas smell' evacuates gym in Hamden (Connecticut), 3 miles from the coast:
http://wtnh.com/2017/12/14/hamden-gym-evacuated-due-to-smell-of-natural-gas/
Quote: "A gym in Hamden was evacuated on Thursday after patrons said they could smell natural gas. The Edge Fitness was evacuated around 2:30 p.m. Hamden Fire Department crews were called to the scene to investigate. Meters used to determine natural gas levels in the area reported nothing measurable, according to Gary Merwede of Hamden Fire. Officials do not know yet exactly where the smell was coming from."
Note: Well yeah, they're using natural gas detectors, and those are going to register nothing when it's hydrogen sulfide. The same thing happened the day prior in Stark County and Canton (Ohio), mentioned in the 2017-12-13 update, and the day before that in Los Altos (California), mentioned in the 2017-12-12 update. This is happening regularly now...

Exploding head syndrome sounds like an ear problem (or a PTSD effect). You sure find some strange stuff, Jonny! Good work!

Interview with Adrian Raine: How to spot a murderer's brain
https://www.sott.net/article/371384-Interview-with-Adrian-Raine-How-to-spot-a-murderers-brain
In particular, the murderers' brains showed what appeared to be a significant reduction in the development of the prefrontal cortex, "the executive function" of the brain, compared with the control group.
The advancing understanding of neuroscience suggested that such a deficiency would result in an increased likelihood of a number of behaviours: less control over the limbic system that generates primal emotions such as anger and rage; a greater addiction to risk; a reduction in self-control; and poor problem-solving skills, all traits that might predispose a person to violence.
The question remains, however, that if these "biomarkers" do exist and exert an influence - and you begin to see the evidence as incontrovertible - then what should we do about them? [more]

Major quake or major eruption alert Kanlaon Volcano Philippines hit by over 2,000 quakes as solar wind and tropical storm Kai-Tak ramp up chance
http://www.thebigwobble.org/2017/12/major-quake-or-major-eruption-alert.html
The current Coronal hole on the Sun has delivered 3 major quakes in the area in the last three day's with yesterday's major quake in Indonesia very close to Bali's extremely active Mount Agung Volcano.
Kanlaon Volcano in the Philippines shaken up with 2,234 volcanic earthquakes in less than 48 hours.
Three factors could cause a major quake or massive eruption: Tropical storm Kai-Tak in the area, Coronal Hole on the Sun's atmosphere ejecting solar wind towards Earth set to arrive tomorrow and the fact Negros' Kanlaon Volcano is so active at the moment. [more]

More than 77k evacuated as deadly TS Urduja (Kai-Tak) drops massive rain on Philippines

A slow-moving Tropical Storm "Urduja," internationally known as "Kai-Tak," crawled toward the Philippines over the past couple of days, dropping massive amounts of rain. Urduja made landfall around 06:00 UTC on December 16 in the vicinity of San Policarpio, Eastern Samar and is expected to re-emerge over the warm waters of South China Sea early December 18 and reintensify. As of early December 16, at least 3 people have been killed and more than were 77 000 forced to evacuate. [more]

Greenland’s ice sheet is driving global sea level rise. One section is melting 80% faster.
ReplyDeletehttp://www.fasterthanexpected.com/2017/12/14/greenlands-ice-sheet-is-driving-global-sea-level-rise-one-section-is-melting-80-faster/
Greenland’s ice is hugely important for the planet. The sheet of ice that covers 660,000 square miles is more than a mile thick and has a volume of 684,000 cubic miles.
If it all melts, it would raise global sea levels by 25 feet. On Thursday, scientists published a new map of the land mass beneath Greenland’s ice, showing that the ice is deeper than previously thought, so losing it all would lead to an additional 2.7 inches of sea level rise above past estimates.

CDC gets list of forbidden words from Trump administration: evidence-based, science-based, fetus, transgender, diversity – “Are you serious? Are you kidding?”
http://www.desdemonadespair.net/2017/12/cdc-gets-list-of-forbidden-words-from.html
(The Washington Post) – The Trump administration is prohibiting officials at the nation’s top public health agency from using a list of seven words or phrases — including “fetus” and “transgender” — in any official documents being prepared for next year’s budget.
Policy analysts at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in Atlanta were told of the list of forbidden words at a meeting Thursday with senior CDC officials who oversee the budget, according to an analyst who took part in the 90-minute briefing. The forbidden words are “vulnerable,” “entitlement,” “diversity,” “transgender,” “fetus,” “evidence-based” and “science-based.”
In some instances, the analysts were given alternative phrases. Instead of “science-based” or “evidence-based,” the suggested phrase is “CDC bases its recommendations on science in consideration with community standards and wishes,” the person said. In other cases, no replacement words were immediately offered. [more]
