Event Update For 2018-01-15





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.

http://www.truthdig.com/articles/east-antarctic-ice-sheet-may-spell-trouble/

Quote: "New research has confirmed one of the worst nightmares of climate science: the instability of the East Antarctic ice sheet. This vast mass holds enough water to raise sea levels by 53 metres worldwide. And researchers have confirmed that one stretch of the southern polar coastline has melted many times in the past: by enough to raise sea levels by three to five metres. A rise of just one metre would render at least 100 million coast dwellers homeless."

http://fox5sandiego.com/2018/01/16/naked-man-rides-superman-style-on-san-diego-freeway/

Quote: "A bizarre situation took place on Interstate 15 Monday after a naked man was seen riding 'Superman style' on top of a car. Cell phone video shows the man on top of a black Mercedes pounding on the roof. The unusual circumstance was captured at the onramp from northbound I-15 to northbound Interstate 805. California Highway Patrol officers say just before 2 p.m. the driver in the black Mercedes was broken down waiting for assistance when a naked man appeared and started running around the car. Soon after, the unclothed man jumped on top of the car as it pulled away, but he didn’t get very far before a CHP officer on his motorcycle stopped the car. Minutes later, the man was arrested and taken to UCSD Medical Center for evaluation."

  3. Thanks for another stellar report, Jonny.

    Reading these incidents, I try to put myself in the them. The bridge collapse was just too much for me - instantly falling probably 100s of feet to ones death is terrifying. The mezzanine collapse one can survive - still scary, but not that far above ground level (and lots of bodies to "cushion the fall"). The helicopter crash is another one I couldn't imagine without getting the heebie-jeebies. Dropping dead is PREFERRED - make it quick with no suffering!

    AFTER THE HURRICANE
    In Barbuda, islanders fear their cherished lifestyle may be lost forever
    https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/world/wp/2018/01/16/feature/photos-of-barbuda-after-hurricane-irma/

    Irma’s Category 5 winds damaged virtually 100 percent of the island. In its aftermath, and as Hurricane Jose threatened to hit, the island was completely evacuated.

    A few hundred Barbudans have since returned, seeking to rebuild. But the hurricane has ripped open old wounds in Antigua and Barbuda, a Caribbean nation of two very different islands where long-standing tensions have spilled over. Barbudans who have returned are furious at, and suspicious of, the national government in bigger, more developed Antigua, insisting it is dragging its feet on restoring electricity to homes and rebuilding schools. They smell a plot to deter Barbudans from going back, in order to sell out the island to developers. The effort by the Antigua government to construct a bigger, more fortified airport on Barbuda, they say, is proof. [more]

    Incoming: Massive house-sized asteroid will fly close to Earth next week
    https://www.sott.net/article/374417-Incoming-Massive-house-sized-asteroid-will-fly-close-to-Earth-next-week

    Unlike that false alarm in Hawaii, this potentially cataclysmic piece of news is real: an asteroid between 22 and 68 meters in diameter is going to swing past Earth on January 23 at around 12,300 miles an hour (around Mach 16). It's going to come within 1.1 million miles of Earth, but it's unclear whether its trajectory will cause it to hit Earth or fly past harmlessly.

    The asteroid, named 2018 AJ, is just one of several asteroids that have suddenly popped up on NASA's radar without warning-the last one was 2017 YD7, which was spotted December 28 and flew past Earth on January 3.

    Though NASA's Planetary Defense office says the next big asteroid threat won't happen until 2185, that doesn't take into account all the asteroids they keep missing-and that number may keep rising in 2018. [more]

    https://www.sott.net/article/374389-Incoming-NASA-warns-another-giant-asteroid-will-hurtle-past-earth-in-early-February

    A gigantic asteroid which is larger than the world's tallest building, the Burj Khalifa, will hurtle past our planet in around two weeks time.

    The 2002 AJ129 asteroid has been classed a 'potentially hazardous' by Nasa and will fly past at speeds of 67,000mph (107,826kmh).

    This makes it nearly 15 times faster than the world's quickest manned aircraft - the hypersonic North American X-15, which travelled at 4,520mph (7,300kmh).

    It is set to pass by our planet on the 4th February at a distance of around 2,615,128 miles (4,208,641km) away - which is relatively close in space terms. [more; ca'man, that's ~ 11LD]

    A shocking discovery from the French scientific group CRIGEN led by world renowned toxicology and biosafety scientist Dr. Gilles-Eric Seralini reveals that Monsanto's Round up (Glyphosate based herbicide) and other types of Glyphosate based herbicides(GHB) contain universally banned heavy metals like arsenic, etc., in the formulant which are a thousand times more harmful than the active compound Glyphosate(G) itself.

  10. Well yesterday here in the Austin area it never got above freezing and last night the low was 18 degrees. In some areas away from the city it was lower. I just noticed that it is supposed to be in the mid 70s this weekend! Springtime style thunderstorms forecast for Sunday with lows only in the 60s overnight. Now folks.....this ain't normal. To go from the teens at night to the 60s at night in less than a week.

    The weekend thunderstorms ought to give us a new batch of gas, gas, gas. Bwahahahahahahaha...... (Yeah, might as well laugh. Why not?)
