Event Update For 2015-04-05





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.

2015-04-05 - Truck bursts into flame while parked inside public works building, fire damages 2 more trucks, in coastal Scituate (Massachusetts):

http://massachusetts.24-7newz.com/truck-fire-leaves-scituate-highway-garage-without-power-boston/

Quote: "The town’s highway garage was left without power this weekend after a fire broke out in the building and damaged several town vehicles. Capt. William Sestito of the Scituate Fire Department said the fire was reported around 1:45 p.m. Saturday by a passerby who thought it was a brush fire. Instead, firefighters found that a truck had caught fire inside the building. 'It’s a burden on everyone,” Sestito said. “That’s where police and fire get fuel and the power’s been cut.'"

2015-04-05 - SUV bursts into flame at 4 AM while parked at home, fire spreads to home, on coastal South Padre Island (Texas):
http://www.valleycentral.com/news/story.aspx?id=1187352
http://www.brownsvilleherald.com/news/local/article_904c83e2-dccc-11e4-98a2-8f4806b57dcb.html

Quote: "Flames spread from a car to a nearby home early Sunday morning on South Padre Island, forcing residents to jump out the windows to escape, according to police. The Port Isabel, Brownsville and South Padre Island fire departments responded to the blaze at about 4 a.m. Sunday on the 100 block of East Saturn Lane."

Note: In separate incidents, four people were found dead on South Padre Island between March 18 and March 25. Right next to the Gulf of Mexico, North America's sewer, so one would expect people to be dropping dead and cars to be spontaneously igniting here. 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 and/or dying more common during those hours. Here's a Google Maps link of the area...

Quote: "Investigators believe it could have sparked because of a golf cart parked in the home's porch."

Note: Here's a Google Maps link of the area. And here's another pile of parked vehicles spontaneously igniting and sometimes destroying other stuff, like homes. Best to keep your vehicles a safe distance away from your residence, or you could end up homeless or dead...

2015-04-05 - Two men, crewmembers, drop dead in cargo hold of cargo ship 'Sally Ann C', another loses consciousness, off the coast of Senegal:
http://www.vesseltracker.com/en/Ships/Sally-Ann-C-9338151.html

Quote: "UK authorities investigated the death of two seafarers on the "Sally Ann C" on Mar 13, 2015. The chief officer and the chief engineer collapsed in a cargo hold of the ship. The second officer had tried to help his two colleagues, but lost consciousness and had to be revived."

Note: That's indicative of hydrogen sulfide poisoning. People collapse and then others try to help and they collapse too. It's a heavier-than-air gas, so it will tend to accumulate in low-lying areas, like the cargo holds on ships. Some things that might help: 1) put hydrogen sulfide sensors on all ships, inside and out; and 2) put ozone generators in the cargo holds and living quarters, and maybe have them auto-activate if the sensors sound the alarm...
 



2015-04-05 - Girl, 6, found dead in bed, mother unconscious on floor, in Croton-on-Hudson (New York), near the Hudson River:
http://www.lohud.com/story/news/local/westchester/2015/04/06/girl-death-croton-investigation/25355011/

Quote: "Investigators are awaiting the results of a toxicology report to determine the girl's cause of death, officials said; her body had no obvious signs of trauma."

Note: Too late to detect hydrogen sulfide; it dissipates quickly inside the body. Enough hydrogen sulfide to kill a young girl might just knock an adult unconscious too. What they should be checking is for traces of hydrogen sulfide in the clothes, the bedding, the floor, the water supply and the Hudson River. But since they're unaware of the problem - or working hard to hide things from the public - then they won't do that. This looks quite similar to the two guys who dropped dead in the cargo hold of the ship with the third guy unconscious...

  1. Nuclear sub burning in coastal Severodvinsk (Russia):

    http://rt.com/news/247493-nuclear-submarine-fire-russia/

    Blamed on welders. Poor welders. They're totally unaware of the atmospheric problem, and yet their job entails the use of fire, so they're gonna keep getting blamed for stuff that in many or most cases is not their fault at all, just a consequence of having a fire-using job as the atmosphere gets more flammable. But since nobody's talking about that, and people have to blame something or somebody, welders end up taking one for the deception team.

  3. Geez Jonny, talk about duck and cover! Stay safe.

    This one's for you - since i get more news of my area reading your site than from mainstream media:

    Special effects have changes amazingly over the years. Comparing Today's King Kong to the classic King Kong is a no brainer how different and more realistic special effect have evolved over the years. The older version of King Kong to my generation today seems like it wasn't that much hard work put into it althought it might have been. But because of how technology have also evolved everything in terms of King Kong is more believable. From the effects of the forest, King Kong himself, the movements, the dinosaurs. Everything is just more believable and clear it would make a person think these animals could actually be real.

The latest study says 300 million-year-old fault lines have been reactivated and are capable of producing a magnitude-6.0 quake. “The reason for the study is to identify regions most likely able to produce a magnitude 6.0 earthquake and how that may affect infrastructure in the buildings in the region,” said Dan McNamara with the U.S.G.S.

    McNamara’s research did not focus on a cause, but a 2014 study posted online in “Science” connected thousands of small earthquakes to oil and gas production. The study linked the increase in seismic activity to the process of pumping highly pressurized waste-water into the ground — a byproduct of fracking.

    Forgotten lessons from Fukushima? ‘Utility minimizes earthquake risks at California nuclear plant,’ critics say

    Since the Diablo Canyon nuclear power plant opened on a rocky stretch of California coast in 1985, researchers have discovered three nearby fault lines capable of stronger quakes than the one that struck Napa last year. And yet the plant’s owner, Pacific Gas and Electric Co., insists that Diablo isn’t in greater danger than previously thought. If anything, it’s in less. PG&E has, at several times in Diablo’s complicated history, changed the way the company assesses the amount of shaking nearby faults can produce, as well as the plant’s ability to survive big quakes. To Diablo’s critics, PG&E keeps tweaking the math to make California’s last nuclear plant look safer than it really is. [oh, GREAT!]

  4. HAAA-HAAA: That weird paragraph about King Kong was there because I'm on a college computer in their library (at work) and when I pasted the first link it just came along for the ride and I didn't see it! Somebody editing their essay I guess (history of animation - I know the teacher).

  5. Whew, and I thought I was just having problems comprehending what King Kong was doing there. Hah, you let KING KONG sneak by you and get into your post!

  6. Yeah, how's THAT for "editing?"

    Here's something i just saw:

    Power outage strikes much of Washington, D.C., including the White House

    Power outage strikes much of Washington, D.C., including the White House

    A power outage reportedly struck much of Washington, D.C., Tuesday morning.

    The U.S. State Department, White House, Capitol and Justice Department were among the buildings that lost power.

    A White House spokesperson said that backup generators kicked in initially after the outage, according to a tweet from Mark Knoller, a CBS News correspondent.

    Other areas throughout the D.C. metro area, including the University of Maryland in College Park, went dark.

    “There is a campus-wide power outage. Crews are working on addressing the problem. Thank you for your patience,” university President Wallace D. Loh tweeted.

    Shortly after, Loh explained that there was a problem with the electric feed to the campus and that Pepco, the main electricity service provider for Washington, D.C., was working on the problem.

    At least one class at the university’s Philip Merrill College of Journalism decided to move its discussion outside.

    A congressional aide said a backup generator was helping the U.S. Capitol complex to continue operations, according to Reuters.

    The Washington Metro said that some metro stations in the nation’s capital resorted to emergency lighting, though all remain open. Commuters were asked to be cautious when entering a dark station.

    As expected, plenty of people took to Twitter to crack wise about the outage. Some even thought this sort of incident could provide fodder for a film storyline.

    The Washington Post reported that D.C. utilities and homeland security officials were investigating and that “an explosion at a southern Maryland electrical facility is believed to have caused the power surge that temporarily knocked out power to the White House and much of downtown Washington.”

    A private plane returning from the NCAA basketball tournament in Indianapolis crashed in a central Illinois field on Tuesday, killing all seven people on board, including Illinois State University's associate head basketball coach and a deputy athletics director.

    The National Transportation Safety Board was investigating, but there was no initial word on the cause of the crash.

  8. So, a nuclear sub burning, a good chunk of Washington DC going dark, and a fatal plane crash killing 7 people, all today. Fellow frogs, the pot is coming to a boil!
