Event Update For 2017-01-18

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.

Note: This dog was lucky someone saw this fire and was able to save it. Children have burned to death in cars in recent times because parents ran inside a home or store or whatever for 'just a minute'. Well, that's all it takes to kill someone trapped in a burning car, and now that cars are randomly-igniting firebombs that can go off at any time, it's extremely risky to leave any living being inside a car, even for a minute. It's also risky to park cars near your residence, since they're going up in flames regularly while parked too, and even if you survive that, you could easily lose your home and everything in it, as many people have...

Quote: "The first tremor, with a preliminary magnitude of 5.3, hit Montereale at about 10:25 a.m. local time, according to the U.S. Geological Survey. A second quake with a magnitude of 5.7 hit the same area about 50 minutes later, and 10 minutes later a third was measured at magnitude 5.3. Several hours later another 5.1-magnitude quake shook the same area. Throughout the day, seismologists registered more than 100 aftershocks."

Quote: "The four quakes, which came in quick succession, caused buildings to collapse but miraculously resulted in no deaths or injuries."

Note: ..unless they're really hungry. They forgot to add that part for some odd reason!

2017-01-18 - Waxwings coming to the UK, probably because of harsh Siberian winter and/or lack of food:

http://www.sott.net/article/339966-A-Waxwing-Winter-Soaring-numbers-of-rare-birds-invade-the-UK

Quote: "An unusual species of bird is enjoying a winter vacation here in the UK, according to the RSPB charity. Waxwings are a small starling-sized bird with a prominent crest and colourful markings. They only travel here from Siberia and northern Scandinavia when they experience a particularly harsh winter or if there is a shortage of food."

Note: Could be they don't like the atmosphere in Siberia too - that's where those giant exploding methane craters are, and Moscow itself has been hit by hydrogen sulfide three times in the last 26 months too...

http://robinwestenra.blogspot.com/2017/01/crop-failures-and-so-it-starts.html

Quote: "Floods in Spain's south-eastern Murcia region combined with cold weather in Italy has meant that many field crops such as lettuce and broccoli have been nearly wiped out, Nationwide Produce food marketing company managing director Tim O'Malle told the BBC. Peppers and aubergines are among others that have been hit. Murcia is reported to have recently had its heaviest rainfall in 30 years and is estimated to supply about 80% of Europe's fresh produce during the winter months."

http://www.theverge.com/2017/1/18/14300054/food-delivery-robots-postmates-doordash-us-launch

Quote: "A small number of Americans will soon be able to have food and other goods delivered to them by an adorable semi-autonomous robot. Starship Technologies announced the first two commercial partnerships for its ground-based delivery robots in the US today — one with DoorDash in Redwood City, California, and one with Postmates in Washington, DC. The commercial trials will see these services start making deliveries in the coming weeks using Starship’s six-wheeled robots within a four-mile-wide test area in each city."

http://www.salon.com/2017/01/17/wilbur-ross-donald-trumps-secretary-of-commerce-nominee-has-offshored-2700-jobs-since-2004/

Quote: "Companies controlled by Wilbur Ross, a billionaire known as 'the king of bankruptcy' for buying struggling businesses and turning them around into profitability, cut roughly 2,700 jobs since 2004 by shipping their production into other countries, according to data obtained by Reuters under a Freedom of Information Act request on Tuesday. These included textile, finance, and auto-parts companies."

Note: You couldn't possibly ask for a more corporatist and elitist group than that which Trump has selected to fill his cabinet positions. I see what Trump meant by 'Make America Great Again' now - he meant great for BILLIONAIRES!

2017-01-18 - Unlike Trump, Americans want strong environmental regulator, says Reuters/Ipsos poll:
http://www.desdemonadespair.net/2017/01/unlike-trump-americans-want-strong.html

Note: I highly doubt any of the oil and chemical bigwigs with which Trump is filling the government are going to care about the environment, since they never have before...
