http:...White Swan Event aka. Reversion To The Mean <br />http://ponziworld.blogspot.com/2017/10/black-monday-20-rise-of-machines.html<br /><br />We live in a fetid Idiocracy run by old age morons who keep making the same mistakes over and over again, each time adding more leverage, each time expecting a different result. Anyone who trusts Trump at this late juncture deserves their fate. Natural selection is democratic in this way. Due to Artificial Intelligence, the probability of a crash is now far higher than the probability of continued status quo.

What they found was that two M5 earthquakes happened at the same place as the latest nuclear test within 8 minutes after the detonation.<br /><br />This is due to the fact that a nuclear underground detonation causes a cavity to form below ground. Since the North Koreans have been using the same site for all of their nuclear tests there are now 5 cavities of ever increasing size and thus THE ENTIRE SITE IS GEOLOGICALLY UNSTABLE.

New versions of the herbicide dicamba developed by Monsanto and BASF, according to farmers, have drifted across fields to crops unable to withstand it, a charge authorities are investigating.

Scientists using the first 2 1/2 years of OCO-2 data have published a special collection of five papers today in the journal Science that demonstrates the breadth of this research. In addition to showing how drought and heat in tropical forests affected global carbon dioxide levels during the 2015-16 El Niño, other results from these papers focus on ocean carbon release and absorption, urban emissions and a new way to study photosynthesis. A final paper by OCO-2 Deputy Project Scientist Annmarie Eldering of NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, California, and colleagues gives an overview of the state of OCO-2 science.

So much talent, superb musicianship, great sound-man at the board (until 3 a.m. from 2 in the afternoon), good food, enjoyable (and cheap) high-quality mixed drinks (I don't drink beer much, but they had a wide selection that most people drank), free and easy atmosphere, awesome dj's shaking the building with deep bass beats and drawing people from blocks away, since they were outside during the wonderfully mild, party cloudy day.
