2014-10-15 - FedEx cargo plane engine bursts into flame, plane lands in Sacramento (California), pilot puts out fire:
http://hisz.rsoe.hu/alertmap/site/index.php?pageid=event_desc&edis_id=VIV-20141016-45655-USA
http://fox40.com/2014/10/15/cargo-plane-makes-emergency-landing-in-sacramento/
Quote: "A FedEx cargo plane made an emergency landing in Sacramento after noticing a possible engine fire. The plane landed safely at Sacramento International Airport. The plane, a DC-10, landed just before 6 p.m. The pilot was able to put out the flames using fire extinguishers."
Note: Not a big fire, obviously. Still, part of the trend of planes coming down smoking or burning, and the trend IS a big deal...
2014-10-15 - Villa explodes and burns at 5 AM, fire spreads to more villas, in Bushkill (Pennsylvania), nobody there:

http://wnep.com/2014/10/15/flames-hit-eight-apartments-in-monroe-county/
Quote: "Officials say the fire and an apparent explosion damaged four units and destroyed four others. The fire broke out just before 5 a.m. at the Villas at Tree Tops and Fairway. It’s part of the Fernwood Resort near Marshalls Creek. People staying there say they heard a loud explosion that ended up throwing parts of the vacation villas all over the parking lot."
Note: An unoccupied mobile home just exploded and burned at 2:13 AM in coastal Angola (Delaware) too, mentioned in the 2014-10-13 update. Other homes have exploded and burned since then too, but that was the last unoccupied structure to spontaneously explode. The wee hours are when the atmosphere cools and contracts, which will push any methane and/or hydrogen sulfide in the air above closer to the ground, making fires, explosions and animals and people sickening or dying more common during those hours...
2014-10-15 - Home explodes and burns in coastal Galloway Township (New Jersey), 1 injured:

Quote: "He said a gas leak near a range inside led to an explosion, but the heat source is unknown."
Note: Unknown ignition source again. That's probably the work of the Ghostly Match. In fact, they didn't check methane or hydrogen sulfide levels, so that may have been the source of the gas that exploded too, which then resulting in the explosion that damaged the gas line. If they never check - which they don't - then they'll never know...

Quote: "Police said they don't know if the device was inside or outside the vehicles. They also don't know the motive. Arson detectives are taking the lead in the investigation. Police also searched Markham's south parking lot for any possible fragments from the explosion but found none..."
Note: Blamed on a 'device', but nobody saw anyone around and there were no pieces of any device found, so they're just assuming there WAS a device, despite the fact that they found zero evidence of any such device. Looks like a gas plume blew by, the gas funneled under a car and then some rusty iron/steel ignited it. That would explain the lack of anyone around and the lack of evidence that there was a device and the lack of any motive and the lack of any surveillance footage. Or you can go with their explanation: an unknown person that nobody saw planted an explosive device for no reason that damaged two cars and all parts of that device magically disappeared before anyone showed up. Riiiiiight...

http://www.northamptonchron.co.uk/news/crime/arsonists-set-two-more-cars-on-fire-in-northampton-as-residents-become-increasingly-concerned-1-6359229
Note: Blamed on arson in this case, but as usual they haven't eliminated accidental causes, so they don't know that it's arson and it's merely an assumption. Competent investigators eliminate accidental causes and don't jump to conclusions like that. The question is, are they being incompetent on purpose, because they're trying to hide what's happening and deceive the public, or are they just naturally incompetent, and there's no way to be sure which it is. I suspect the former, but I will concede that there actually ARE a lot of incompetent people out there and that might include these investigators...
Quote: "I think people are concerned by the sudden and frequent nature of the incidents over recent weeks, and by the fact that these are incidents taking place in very close proximity to people’s homes. That combined with a perception that there is no visibility or plan by the authorities to tackle the problem."
Note: They're taking place near peoples' homes because that's where people are parking their vehicles!

Note: Blamed on a gas leak. How do they know that the explosion didn't CAUSE the gas leak? They don't. What were the methane and hydrogen sulfide levels in the air and ground around that house? Oh, nobody checked, so they don't know what effect that might have had either. In short, they don't actually know anything at all except that this house exploded and burned in the wee hours and AFTER the explosion the gas lines had been severed. Doesn't look any different from the houses that have had no utilities connected at all that have exploded and burned...

http://www.kltv.com/story/26783552/debris-field-spotted-on-radar-at-time-of-boom-heard-around-the-arklatex
Note: I mentioned this mysterious explosion the day prior, in the 2014-10-13 update, but this story eliminates a lot of possibilities. It wasn't a sonic boom, because they don't leave a radar signature. It wasn't a business, because they're all okay. It wasn't the ammo stockpile in Minden exploding (again), because that's okay. It wasn't an earthquake or anything seismic, because there was no seismic activity. Soooo...this might have been another one of those underground methane explosions like those that created craters in Siberia recently, mentioned in the 2014-08-04 update. Such an explosion could leave a radar signature, probably mostly smoke and water vapor. If that's what caused this massive explosion then there is a hole in the ground somewhere out there, which may have filled with water and turned into a new pond by now, possibly out in the middle of nowhere in the Shreveport area...

2014-10-14 - Vehicles and garage destroyed by fire at 4:15 AM, home damaged, family flees, in Vancouver (Washington):
http://koin.com/2014/10/14/crews-battling-2nd-alarm-house-fire-in-vancouver/
Quote: "Firefighters fought Tuesady morning to get the upper hand on a second-alarm fire near Burnt Bridge Creek Elementary School."
Quote: "The fire, which was reported shortly after 4:15 a.m.according to dispatchers, began in the garage, then moved inside the home and into the attic. Firefighters worried the blaze would spread to the house next door and called in a second alarm. Crews are in the process of breaking down some of the vehicles inside the garage, which is destroyed."
Note: So this fire began in the garage, and destroyed vehicles parked there. One of those vehicles probably spontaneously ignited, as many are. It doesn't matter if they're parked or running - they're burning either way. Park a vehicle inside an attached garage or near your home at your own risk...

Note: They're assuming arson. I guess they haven't noticed that palm trees have spontaneously ignited a number of times and of course parked vehicles have been spontaneously igniting all over the place for years. It appears that nobody pays fire investigators to be observant...

http://www.sanluisobispo.com/2014/10/14/3295433/fires-sinsheimer-park.html
Note: One fire was a pallet of railroad stuff, two fires were in trash bins, one was vegetation along railroad tracks, two fires were along a creek, and they don't say what the other fires were. So, pallet, trash, creek, wee hours, no witnesses, no motive, no evidence of any kind that humans were involved in any of these fires...but they assume arson anyway. Can't we just get some monkeys and feed them bananas when they hit an 'arson' button? Same level of competence, no loss there, but waaaay cheaper for the taxpayers. Win-win for monkeys AND taxpayers!

Quote: "Upon arrival, emergency responders found a Chevrolet sedan engulfed in flames, Wedding said. Next to the car was the body of a middle-aged woman, also on fire, the lieutenant said."
Note: Well, she made it out of the car, but not in time. Similar to the woman found burned to death next to her car near the Schuykill River in Valley Forge National Historic Park (Pennsylvania), mentioned in the 2014-09-24 update. From the full hypothesis: "Vehicles of all kinds will continue to burn, as they have been, and the number of vehicular fires will continue to escalate, inevitably resulting in a corresponding increase in the number of people being incinerated in their vehicles."

Firefighters from Rehoboth Beach responded to the home in the 22000 block of Camp Arrowhead Road and they were assisted by firefighters from Indian River and Lewes and Sussex County EMS, said Warren Jones of the Rehoboth Beach Volunteer Fire Co. The double-wide mobile home was engulfed in flames when firefighters arrived; no one was home at the time of the fire..."
Note: Just another unoccupied home exploding and burning in the middle of the night. Nothing weird about that!

2014-10-13 - Cruise ship 'Mein Schiff 1' hit by fire off the coast of Spain:
http://www.vesseltracker.com/en/Ships/Mein-Schiff-1-9106297.html
Quote: "In the evening of Oct 12, 2014, around 9 p.m. a fire broke out in the incinerator on deck 3 of the 'Mein Schiff 1' while the cruise ship was enroute from Barcelona to Palma de Mallorca with more than 2000 passengers. The crew was able to extinguish the fire within short time, and the ship docked as scheduled at Palma in the morning of Oct 13. The message 'Bravo, Bravo, Bravo, Fire in the Garbage' could accidently be heard from the PA system."
Note: So a trash fire, just like all the recycling plant fires that have driven major international insurers out of the recycling business, except this time the fire happened to occur on a cruise ship. From the full hypothesis: "Trash-related facilities such as recycling centers and landfills will burn hard too, as hydrogen sulfide is absorbed into flammable absorbent materials like wood, paper, cardboard, straw, hay, dried brush, generic trash, clothing, cotton, wool."

Note: Suspected arson. I'd probably suspect arson too if I was clueless and unobservant and hadn't noticed all the other parked vehicles igniting in the last couple of years, especially near coasts, as with this event, and in the wee hours, as with this event. Fortunately for me, I'm not clueless or unobservant. Unfortunately for them, they are. Maybe the residents there will get better people on the job once the current folks get poisoned to death or burned to death or whatever. See, I'm an optimist!

2014-10-12 - Pickup truck bursts into flame, man has seizure and loses consciousness, doesn't remember, neighbor saves him, in Colorado Springs (Colorado):
http://www.kktv.com/home/headlines/Man-Saves-Neighbor-From-Burning-Truck--278972141.html
http://www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics/springs-man-rescues-neighbor-after-truck-catches-fire/vi-BB9cuGK?refvid=BB7gp5Y
Quote: "On Friday morning Dave Fulton opens the door of his truck to head to work. But just as he starts it up, he has a seizure and slumps over in the cab. His foot is stuck on the gas pedal, revving the engine at full throttle. 'That scene when you see me out there, I don't remember any of it,' said Dave."
Note: Hydrogen sulfide is neurotoxic and damages brains (among other things), which can cause seizures, unconsciousness, memory loss, and much more. It's also highly reactive and extremely flammable, which is causing many vehicles to burst into flame, even when they're not running. The same thing that happened to this man is almost certainly what happened to the young couple who burned to death in their SUV in McFarland (Wisconsin), mentioned in the 2013-01-01 update. They didn't even try to exit the vehicle, just laid there and burned to death. They had probably been knocked unconscious or dead by hydrogen sulfide, or they were suffering seizures or 'medical events', and their SUV ignited simultaneously, but even if they were still alive there was nobody around to save them, so they burned to death.
There won't always be a fire. Lots of people are just plain being found dead in cars or losing consciousness or having 'medical events' and crashing. Two young-ish men were found dead in their car foaming at the mouth late last year in Asaba (Nigeria), a lawyer and his assistant I think, mentioned in the 2013-12-12 update. They were BOTH probably having seizures as they died, but there was no fire in that case, just two guys foaming at the mouth and dying. There've been other people found mysteriously dead and foaming at the mouth too; I just mention them because they happened to be in a vehicle at the time.
This can happen to anyone at any time now, though it is most likely to occur in the wee hours and when in, near or downwind of low-lying areas like bodies of water, valleys, canyons, ditches, ravines, underground parking garages, etc. Your vehicle can ignite while you're driving it too, and many are. Some of the vehicular fires can take out the electrical system, which means power locks and windows may stop working and you can be trapped inside. Some people have burned to death that way too, clawing helplessly at windows as they died screaming. It's probably a good idea to keep something handy to smash out windows and cut seatbelts, just in case, because once a fire starts you may only have seconds to act before lack of oxygen knocks you unconscious and then the odds that you burn to death go waaaay up...

Note: That's where the Ghostly Match comes into play, acting as the igniter for gases which would otherwise not have an ignition source. In fact there may have been some hydrogen sulfide in the ground too, since it's also a heavier-than-air gas. Once the air is volatile enough, then even a slight bit of hydrogen sulfide near some rust or electrified copper can spark and set off a fire or explosion...

Note: Probably the Ghostly Match. Israeli scientists detected hundreds of 'gas springs' bubbling from the sea floor off the coast there, mentioned in the 2012-11-12 update. That problem will be worsening as time goes on. It's a little ironic that they're squabbling over the land there. Yoohoo, Israelis and Palestinians, that land is eventually not going to be inhabitable by ANYBODY, so it's a waste of lives to fight over it. Crazy humans...

http://www.dailyitem.com/news/montour_county/article_5b80625e-5294-11e4-b14c-7b247b00910f.html
Quote: "Dustin Young had just picked up his truck and was headed back to get the car he had just parked. When he arrived at the Hawkins Chevrolet lot along Mill Street, he found his red Jetta on fire at about 4:45 p.m. Friday. The car was off Mill Street and away from any new vehicles on the lot. What the Danville resident said he couldn’t understand was his car somehow had moved at least a car length from where he had parked and locked it."
Note: That car started itself; that's why it was a car length from where he left it. That's happened numerous times in the last coupla three years. A lot of these fires are going to involve the electrical system, because hydrogen sulfide is reactive with copper, especially electrified copper. So sometimes the vehicles are starting themselves as they burn, 'hot-wiring' themselves. The most notable example of a fiery self-starting vehicle was when an unoccupied boat burst into flame in the middle of the night, started itself, then tore across the harbor while burning, hitting other boats, in coastal Coffs Harbour (Australia), mentioned in the 2013-05-03 update. Danville is located on the banks of the Susquehanna River...

Note: Heh, they spend two-thirds of the story making a case for arson - car sped away, lighter found. And then in the very last sentence, not suspicious, electrical fault. So nothing nefarious, just another parked car bursting into flame. I'm surprised they didn't just call it arson anyway though. In Britain they're more like, 'Anyone know how this car caught fire? No? We don't know either. So it was arson.'

Note: All boarded up so no one could have gotten inside. No utilities so gas or electricity couldn't have caused this fire. Then what could have gotten inside and sparked a fire? Gas blowing through the atmosphere, especially hydrogen sulfide, which is reactive with rusty iron/steel, no other ignition source necessary. What's the alternative explanation? Magic? Demons? Aliens? Same as with the piles of scrap metal bursting into flame. Nobody has ever offered up an alternative explanation for those fires, because there isn't one...

Quote: "Stinking smoke billowed from the open manhole, with blue flames occasionally shooting out into the night as well. Firefighters called the situation, largely invisible from the surface save for the smoke and quick spouts of flames, 'a serious underground fire.'"
Quote: "A 'freak' underground fire downtown has sparked power outages for thousands of residents, snarled traffic, injured an ATCO employee, and even cut water pressure for some in a large swath of downtown. An estimated 5,000 Enmax customers and 2,100 area businesses will be without power for as long as a week."
Quote: "The damage from an underground fire in downtown Calgary Saturday night was extensive, 'completely destroying' the electrical infrastructure involved, said utility company Enmax. Because of the extent of the damage, utility crews will have to replace not only the damaged part of the electrical system, but also many connecting parts from across the city."
2014-10-11 - Underground electrical fire breaks out and fuse box ignites separately in the wee hours in coastal Brighton (Britain):
http://www.theargus.co.uk/news/11529815.Shop_fuse_box_bursts_into_flames/
Quote: "Firefighters were called to EAT in North Street, next to Waterstone’s, at 2.15am. Three crews from Preston Circus Fire Station attended the scene but had to wait for UK Power Networks to cut off the electrical supply before putting out the blaze. The damage was contained to the fuse box and no-one was hurt. A manhole cover in Whitehawk Road also caught alight but no-one was injured."
Note: Hydrogen sulfide is highly flammable and it is reactive with rusty iron/steel and electrified copper, both likely to be found in underground infrastructure, and it is a heavier-than-air gas which will seek out low-lying areas. Methane is also leaking from the ground in many areas now and may accumulate in underground areas. As a consequence, there have been increasing numbers of underground fires and explosions, especially underground electrical fires and explosions. The biggest underground explosion so far (not counting the recent gigantic Siberian methane explosion craters) occurred this past July and devastated the city of Kaohsiung on the island of Taiwan, killing dozens and injuring hundreds, mentioned in the 2014-07-31 update.
It's probably wise now to assume your electrical power will be cut at some point for an extended period of time, so you might want to have a 'power outage kit' handy, containing whatever you'd want to have immediately available if you lose power for a week or a month. Flashlights, solar battery chargers, rechargeable batteries, crank-powered emergency radio, decks of cards, board games, books, etc. Food and water and medicines too. Better to be prepared for it than not...

Quote: "Firefighters have responded to at least three explosions in the area over the past week. Arson investigators are trying to figure out if there is a connection between the most recent explosion and others."

http://www.newsnortheast.org.uk/news/road-closed-off-in-spennymoor-to-deal-with-car-fire
Quote: "Two hours later, they were called to nearby Lilac Close in Middlestone Moor, where a Suzuki Grand Vitara, parked on the driveway of a detached house, was engulfed in flames. Its shocked owners watched in horror from a neighbour’s drive as the car rolled forward and the flames reached the front of their home."
Note: Sounds like that car might have started itself as it burned. Hydrogen sulfide is reactive with copper, especially electrified copper, so such fires can affect wiring, which can 'hot-wire' a vehicle. The most notable example of a fiery self-starting vehicle was when an unoccupied boat burst into flame in the middle of the night, started itself, then tore across the harbor while burning, hitting other boats, in coastal Coffs Harbour (Australia), mentioned in the 2013-05-03 update. A recycling center just burned recently in Spennymoor too, mentioned in the 2014-09-26 update...

2014-10-05 - In separate incidents, within minutes, within a mile, RV and parked garbage truck burst into flame in Kingston (New York):

http://www.recordonline.com/article/20141005/News/141009804
Quote: "A motor home fire off state Route 32 north in the town of Ulster on Sunday afternoon led to the discovery of a second vehicle fire at the Ulster County Waste Management facility at 999 Flatbush Road in which the cab of a sanitation truck was in flames."
Note: Very similar to the two boats that burst into flame within 3 minutes while parked at separate marinas in coastal Washington DC, mentioned in the 2014-02-11 update. Also similar to the SUV that burst into flame at the same time as a dimmer switch burst into flame at the home next door, at 3:30 AM, in Stuttgart (Arkansas), mentioned in the 2013-02-05 update. Also similar to a more recent event where a fire broke out at a beach at about the same time as a car burst into flame nearby while parked at a home in coastal Keahou (Hawaii), mentioned in the 2014-09-14 update. None of these events are coincidences, and the only thing they have in common is the atmosphere. As the atmospheric contamination intensifies, the invisible clouds of methane and/or hydrogen sulfide blowing around will increase in number, size and concentration, making it more common for multiple things to ignite in the same general area and in a compressed timeframe...

http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/british-columbia/granville-gardens-seniors-complex-gutted-by-massive-fire-1.2787587
Note: And here's yet another building under construction getting incinerated. Buildings under construction are vulnerable to the atmospheric contamination problem because they're wide open to the atmosphere until they're almost completed. Numerous HUMONGOUS fires have destroyed some major buildings under construction in the last year, especially in coastal areas. From the full hypothesis: "So far as homes are concerned, vacant homes, unoccupied homes and homes under construction will burn hardest and first but the number of occupied homes burning will also be increasing."

Quote: "It is the second truck to burst into flames on the roads of the capital this week."
Note: It wasn't the truck that ignited this time, but part of its load - a forklift being transported burst into flame. So this was much like the car-haulers that have burned when one of the cars they were transporting spontaneously ignited. And this was also yet another parked vehicle spontaneously igniting, just like all the others except this vehicle happened to be parked on top of another vehicle. It's hard for them to blame arsonists for these kind of fires unless they think the Mission Impossible team has gone into the arson business. Also see the forklift that burst into flame and injured a man on this day...

Quote: "A 41-metre tall bronze-coated concrete Pagoda in a tourist destination of southern China’s Guilin City caught fire on Wednesday morning. The fire, which lasted more than two hours, was put off by firefighters, the fire department said. The 'Sun Pagoda', one of the double Pagodas dubbed as 'Sun and Moon', which have been among the tourist landmarks of Guilin, caught fire. It was made of 350 tonnes of bronze, the state-run Xinhua news agency reported."
Note: Wow, when I said metal-related stuff would be burning up, I hadn't envisioned 13-story-tall metal-covered statues going up in flames! It's a shame that there are no pics because that had to be quite a sight to see...

http://www.13wham.com/news/features/top-stories/stories/recycling-yard-fire-quickly-put-out-16238.shtml
Quote: "As fuel was being removed from the car's tank, the gasoline ignited. The fire then consumed the vehicle and ignited almost 200 gallons of combustible and flammable liquids stored beneath the holding rack in tanks and drums."
Quote: "They were draining fluids out of the car when something ignited gasoline."
Note: They don't mention what the ignition source was. That's because they don't know. That was probably the Ghostly Match. Anytime anyone is working with flammable vapors in the air, of any kind, for any reason, it's now possible that those vapors will spontaneously ignite. Obviously that's causing a lot of problems, and people are getting seriously burned. Some people have been flat-out killed by fires and/or explosions while gassing up their vehicles, especially boats, but also cars here and there...
