Jumping Jack Flash Hypothesis: It's A Gas Gas Gas: Event Update For 2017-03-12

Event Update For 2017-03-12

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.

2017-03-12 - Man sits near heater, his clothes ignite and burn him to death, in Joliet (Illinois):
http://www.theherald-news.com/2017/03/13/joliet-man-dies-after-clothes-catch-fire/aochxzp/
http://chicago.cbslocal.com/2017/03/13/man-70-dies-day-after-joliet-fire/

Note: From the full hypothesis: "People's clothing will spontaneously combust from time to time, or ignite very very easily from the slightest spark or heat, as has been happening with increasing frequency and people will be burned to death as a consequence." A lot of these fires are flying below the radar because a lot of the time, someone will ignite then collapse, still burning, which ignites their home, and by the time firefighters show up, the entire home is in flames, so then it just looks like any ol' fatal fire. Same with the cars bursting into flame. Sometimes a car bursts into flame and then the car runs off the road and hits a tree, and responders show up and assume that the impact is what caused the fire instead of the fire causing the impact...

2017-03-12 - Car bursts into flame at Princes Quay Shopping Centre in coastal Hull (Britain):

2017-03-12 - The world’s oceans are storing up staggering amounts of heat, and it’s even more than we thought:
http://www.fasterthanexpected.com/2017/03/10/the-worlds-oceans-are-storing-up-staggering-amounts-of-heat-and-its-even-more-than-we-thought/

Quote: "A new study, out Friday in the journal Science Advances, suggests that since 1960, a staggering 337 zetajoules of energy — that’s 337 followed by 21 zeros — has been added to the ocean in the form of heat. And most of it has occurred since 1980."

Note: I'll type that out, cuz it looks impressive: 337,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 joules. I'm sure the ancient anaerobic bacteria and archaea that produce hydrogen sulfide are extremely happy about all that heat, which will help them grow their colonies and expunge us from the surface of the Earth all the faster...

2017-03-12 - Atmospheric carbon dioxide levels rose at record pace for 2nd straight year:
http://www.fasterthanexpected.com/2017/03/10/carbon-dioxide-levels-rose-at-record-pace-for-2nd-straight-year/

2017-03-12 - Coral reefs continue dying all across the planet:
http://www.fasterthanexpected.com/2017/03/12/scientists-race-to-prevent-wipeout-of-worlds-coral-reefs/

Quote: "The world has lost roughly half its coral reefs in the last 30 years. Scientists are now scrambling to ensure that at least a fraction of these unique ecosystems survives beyond the next three decades. The health of the planet depends on it: Coral reefs support a quarter of all marine species, as well as half a billion people around the world."

Quote: "'This isn’t something that’s going to happen 100 years from now. We’re losing them right now,' said marine biologist Julia Baum of Canada’s University of Victoria. 'We’re losing them really quickly, much more quickly than I think any of us ever could have imagined.' Even if the world could halt global warming now, scientists still expect that more than 90 percent of corals will die by 2050."

2017-03-12 - Hundreds of black-billed gulls believed to have died of starvation in Waikaia (New Zealand):

Note: So what happened to what they usually eat? Already dead, causing die-off to move up the food chain?

2017-03-12 - Two men, 53 and 62, drop dead in separate apartments on the same floor in the same building in Lancaster (Pennsylvania):
http://www.pennlive.com/news/2017/03/two_man_found_dead_in_same_lan.html

Quote: "Bradley estimated the men are in their 50s or 60s. He said the body of one man was discovered around 7:30 p.m. When another resident went to check on a tenant down the hall, the tenant was also found to be deceased. Bradley didn't know how many apartments are in the building but said there are four units on the third floor. He said neither man had any visible injuries and said a preliminary investigation indicated the men died of natural causes."

Quote: "Lt. Michael Bradley said that tests were done for carbon monoxide in the building, but that no trace of the deadly gas was found."

Note: No way to know if it was natural causes that fast, so they're obviously bullsh#tting here. They'd have to do two autopsies and two toxicologies, and the latter would take weeks, and they'd also have to take samples of matter from the environment in case they were killed by hydrogen sulfide, since that wouldn't show up in toxicologies (assuming they were to do toxicologies, which, oddly, they're apparently not) and they didn't do that. Ergo, all the coroner can do is make a guess since he or she was incompetent in terms of ruling everything out that should have been ruled out before making a determination. This is very similar to another incident, where two men, both age 52, dropped dead in separate but adjacent homes on the same night in Oklahoma City (Oklahoma), mentioned in the 2013-03-15 update. There've been many similar multi-death incidents like that since then, obviously not coincidences...

Thanks for the kind thoughts, Jonny. Hey, I need a ruling on this: is the last thing mentioned for Hull (above) a JJFH incident? i'm inclined to include it, since airplanes turn around and land when it happens en route to somewhere, but, on the other hand, it's just an odor and nothing was found.
Your call. 4 or 5 in ONE DAY in HULL makes this place special (and I wouldn't want to live there).

This storm is weird. First it snowed for about 8 hours and we got about 6", then it turned to sleet and freezing rain for about 2 hours, now it's basically snowing, with sleet mixed in. No overpowering wind yet.

'Ghosts', bad vibes drive Brazil's president from official residence in capitol
https://www.sott.net/article/345079-Ghosts-bad-vibes-drive-Brazils-president-from-official-residence-in-capitol

Temer surprised Brazilians this week with the revelation that he has decamped from the Alvorada Palace and moved with his former beauty queen wife and their seven-year-old son down the road to the smaller vice presidential residence.

The modernist Alvorada, which means Dawn and was designed by Brazilian architect Oscar Niemeyer, would be a dream home for many. It has a huge pool, football field, chapel, medical center and vast lawn. But Temer, 76, and his 33-year-old wife Marcela, find the cavernous, glass-fronted building spooky.

Methane Erupting From Arctic Ocean Seafloor
http://arctic-news.blogspot.com/2017/03/methane-erupting-from-arctic-ocean-seafloor.html

Large amounts of methane are erupting from the seafloor of the Arctic Ocean. These methane eruptions are often missed by measuring stations, because these stations are located on land, while measurements are typically taken at low altitude, thus missing the methane that rises in plumes from the Arctic Ocean. By the time the methane reaches the coast, it has typically risen to higher altitudes, thus not showing up in low-altitude measurements taken at stations on land. [more]

Yeah, I'd include that 'smell of gas' as a JJFH incident. Although I probably wouldn't have mentioned it, except that it happened in Hull, where all the other bad stuff has been happening. But I think that's mostly how it happens - a cloud of gas blows through, maybe it gets reported, maybe it doesn't. If it does get reported then maybe people show up to investigate, but by then it's blown on and there's nothing left to find in the air (though some of the gas had to be adsorbed onto matter as it went through, but nobody ever looks for that).

Glad you missed the brunt of that snow storm! I got a tad bit more snow this morning myself, but not enough to register as even an inch and it'll all be gone by noon. And in a few days it'll be 77F here, if the forecasts are accurate, which I wouldn't bet on.

Thanks, Jonny. I think this storm was too hard to predict accurately for every locality. It's gone back to rain and sleet again, but windier.

400,000 yr-old half-skull found in Portuguese cave points to mystery people
https://www.sott.net/article/345177-400000-yr-old-half-skull-found-in-Portuguese-cave-points-to-mystery-people

The discovery of a 400,000-year-old half skull in Portugal has offered tantalizing hints about a possible ancestor of the Neanderthals, researchers said Monday.

The fossil was unearthed from the Aroeira cave site, and marks the oldest human cranium fossil ever found in Portugal, said the report in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, a peer-reviewed US journal.

But there is plenty of mystery around the skull. Researchers don't know if it was from a male or female, how the person died, or even what form of early human it was. [more]

How The Federal Reserve Is Setting Up Trump For A Recession, A Housing Crisis And A Stock Market Crash
http://theeconomiccollapseblog.com/archives/how-the-federal-reserve-is-setting-trump-up-for-a-recession-a-housing-crisis-and-a-stock-market-crash

Most Americans do not understand this, but the truth is that the Federal Reserve has far more power over the U.S. economy than anyone else does, and that includes Donald Trump. Politicians tend to get the credit or the blame for how the economy is performing, but in reality it is an unelected, unaccountable panel of central bankers that is running the show, and until something is done about the Fed our long-term economic problems will never be fixed. . .In this piece, I am going to explain why the Federal Reserve is currently setting the stage for a recession, a new housing crisis and a stock market crash, and if those things happen unfortunately it will be Donald Trump that will primarily get the blame.

Okay. It's 2:30-ish and the snow has tapered off. From about 12:30 til `1:45 we hit the driveway with the snow blower and some shovel work. The township hasn't been down our street yet, so it's still impassable, but me and all my neighbors have removed the snow/sleet/ice/freezing rain combo from our driveways. It's still snowing, but the bulk of it is gone. The thing to do now is to salt before it starts dropping (i'm doing mine ~4:30) turning even the sheen of water left to ice by morning.

By 4 the snow stopped and the gustier wind began. Man, it is COLD out there without gloves on (especially due to the wind).
Threw a little salt around, but the wind's drying it up nicely. The forecasters around here really missed it for our area. We got about 6 to maybe 8", but it was REALLY heavy and wet. My snow blower crapped out on me, but I was all but done anyway. i'll get it serviced with my lawn tractor when the guy comes out next month.
