Event Update For 2018-05-14

http://jumpingjackflashhypothesis.blogspot.com/2012/02/jumping-jack-flash-hypothesis-its-gas.html

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.

Quote: "Former state lawmaker Johnny Ellis was flying home to Anchorage from Seattle on Alaska Airlines on Monday when a naked man ran down the plane's aisle, yelling. Two large men, one possibly the man's relative, followed and ultimately restrained him in the bathroom, Ellis said Tuesday by phone. The plane started to descend into Anchorage right after the incident occurred."

Quote: "A man who stripped off his clothes and locked himself in a bathroom forced a Seattle-bound flight with 178 passengers to turn back for Anchorage in February. He was taken to a hospital for a mental evaluation. A United Airlines flight also diverted to Anchorage in January after a disruptive passenger began smearing feces in the bathroom."

http://www.foxnews.com/us/2018/05/14/virginia-police-officer-shoots-naked-man-on-interstate.html

Quote: "Richmond police spokesman Gene Lepley says the incident began when an officer witnessed a hit-and-run at an intersection at 5:33 p.m. The officer pursued the driver, who drove on the ramp on Chamberlayne Avenue. Once upon the ramp, the fleeing driver hit two other vehicles and struck a tree. It was then reported that a naked man was 'running around crazy' on the interstate. Officers attempted to use their tasers and say one officer resorted to using his gun when the man charged at officers. The man was shot twice in the abdomen, according to WRIC."

Quote: "A witness who was driving home from work told the paper the man was 'dancing and slapping his hands on his head' and then dropped to the ground and rolled like he was on fire."

Report: White House, EPA sought to block release of water pollution study
https://www.cbsnews.com/news/white-house-epa-sought-to-block-release-of-chemical-pollution-study-report-says/

The White House and the Environmental Protection Agency under Scott Pruitt sought earlier this year to stop the publication of a study on toxic chemicals that have contaminated water nationwide, Politico reported Monday, citing emails that were recently disclosed. The effort to block publication came after a Trump administration aide warned the study would spark a "potential public relations nightmare."

"The public, media, and Congressional reaction to these numbers is going to be huge," a White House aide, who was not identified, said in an email, Politico reported.

"The impact to EPA [and the Defense Department] is going to be extremely painful," the email reportedly said. "We (DoD and EPA) cannot seem to get ATSDR to realize the potential public relations nightmare this is going to be."

ATSDR refers to the Department of Health and Human Services' Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry, which had been preparing to publish a health study about toxic chemicals that have polluted water supplies near chemical plants and military bases, as well as other locations in the United States.

The study addresses chemicals known as PFOA and PFOS that are contaminating water systems nationwide. Politico reports that, according to the emails, the study would convey that the chemicals pose dangers to health at a much lower level than the EPA previously deemed safe. [more]

Cleanup underway a day after powerful storms pound Northeast
https://www.msn.com/en-us/weather/topstories/cleanup-underway-a-day-after-powerful-storms-pound-northeast/ar-AAxlYpB

Residents in the Northeast cleaned up Wednesday, a day after powerful storms pounded the region with torrential rain and marble-sized hail, leaving at least three people dead and more 200,000 homes and businesses without power.

The storms downed trees and power lines across the region. Several lightning strikes led to structure fires in New Jersey and Massachusetts. New York's Central Hudson Gas & Electric Corp. reported 78 mph wind gusts on Tuesday and about 1,000 lighting strikes per hour.

Roads in many towns were impassible and some schools canceled classes on Wednesday due to the damage.
Airlines also canceled and delayed flights in and out of the region.

In New York City on Tuesday evening, thousands of commuters were stranded in Grand Central Terminal after rail lines were temporarily suspended due to downed trees on the tracks. [more]

An explosion from an electronic cigarette has killed a man in St. Petersburg, Florida, according to authorities who are investigating the circumstances surrounding his death.

Officials found him with a wound to his top lip area and areas of burns to his body. His death has been ruled accidental.
The cause of death is identified as a projectile wound to the head, Bill Pellan, director of investigations at the Pinellas County Medical Examiner's Office, said Tuesday.

The projectile was from a section of an e-cigarette. The autopsy noted that the e-cigarette was manufactured by Smok-E Mountain and was a "mod" type device. [more]

“It is too late to revert back to the relatively calm and evenly balanced systems we had enjoyed up to the 1950s,” he said.

“All we can do now is to adapt to the resulting changes and the damages we caused, us in the first world to an overwhelming degree being responsible for this [climate change].”

The Paris agreement on climate change is most likely doomed to fail because the self-interests of signatory countries have always taken priority, he said.

“It will be hard enough to curb the further effects [of climate change] by abiding to such ideas as the Paris climate agreements.

I think that enough of these "mysterious" JJFH phenomena are occurring now that more people are open to finding out why. I say this because yesterday I posted on Black Bear YT channel an explanation of how H2S is weakening the ozone layer and of course provided the link to here. Since then two people have enthusiastically thanked me for sharing the link to the JJFH site. Both expressed how it explains some things they've been noticing and even been affected by.

Last year when I shared I got mostly the sound of crickets and some derisive comments, even though Kevin Sandbloom did read the entire long version Hypothesis. So anyway, the change is noticeable.

So to any newbies reading this I hope you start posting comments and asking Jonny questions. He's here to serve and has all the time in the world. Lol... Kidding aside, I know he likes to answer questions.

Invasive, Cannibalistic Tree Frogs Are Spreading Across the Gulf Coast
https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/us/invasive-cannibalistic-tree-frogs-are-spreading-across-the-gulf-coast/ar-AAxmkCq

It is a cannibalistic, fist-sized frog covered in a noxious mucous secretion that burns your eyes. Its affinity for human structures leads it to clog drains and short-out the utility switches in which they lurk. They are spreading through the U.S. and we can’t stop them.

As a generalist predator, the Cuban Tree Frog will eat anything it can get in its mouth, including native tree frogs and even the occasional snake. This could potentially disrupt the food supplies that sustain other animals. As prey, one study suggests they’re not nearly as nutritious as Louisiana’s native tree frogs, meaning that native predators, such as garter snakes, could unknowingly apply the same amount of energy for a lesser meal. They could also carry diseases that threaten native amphibians. [more]

It was the second fire at the same depot in seven years. One person died and about 100 people sought medical help when a fire engulfed the depot in the summer of 2011. More than 4,000 houses were also damaged in the area at the time.

Authorities said the blaze started after dry grass nearby caught fire. [more; GEEZ!]

The Latest: Harris says Haspel unwilling to give full info
https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics/the-latest-harris-says-haspel-unwilling-to-give-full-info/ar-AAxmAxt

California Democratic Sen. Kamala Harris says she remains concerned about CIA nominee Gina Haspel's "commitment to transparency."

Harris says Haspel's unwillingness to share more detailed information about the CIA's use of enhanced interrogation techniques is "deeply troubling." Haspel supervised a covert detention site in Thailand but has vowed never to allow the CIA to restart such a program in the future.

Haspel also drafted a cable ordering the destruction of videotapes depicting harsh interrogation of terror suspects after 9/11, although her boss actually sent the order.

No charges were filed, but Harris wants the Justice Department to declassify an investigative report into the matter. [more]

Under the guise of exercising supervisory power over the president's ability to use military force, Congress is considering writing Donald Trump a blank check to indefinitely detain US citizens with no criminal charges. Alarmingly, this legislation could permit the president to lock up Americans who dissent against US military policy. [more]

the CDC bases its vaccine effectiveness numbers on something called relative risk reduction (RRR), a vague and misleading postulation that exaggerates the vaccine's effectiveness. Their numbers are then echoed by the mainstream media to hide the real failure of the flu vaccine. [a LOT like govt. unemployment #s]

Exceptional Hubris. All That's Left...
http://ponziworld.blogspot.com/2018/05/exceptional-hubris.html

The big news yesterday was the long-awaited close above 3% for the U.S. ten year, amid record bets on higher bond yields. In other words yet another massively crowded momentum trade.

Europe and the U.S. yield curve are warning of slowdown, whereas record-leveraged bond gamblers believe otherwise.

All while, Emerging Markets get pole axed by higher U.S. rates. Gamblers are essentially making record bets that Emerging Markets implode. At which point bond gamblers will get wiped out on their bets for higher U.S. bond yields.

Have I mentioned lately, these are not bright people.

In summary, exceptional hubris is exceptionally painful
