Event Update For 2017-09-09





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.

Quote: "On Sep 8, 2017, at 11.30 a.m. a fire broke out on the 'Arctic Wolf' which was docked at a shipyard in Havøysund. The ship owner himself, Steve Arntzen from Napp in Lofoten, discovered the fire in the morning. He had his ship at the yard since June for modernizations, and the works should be completed by the end of September. Arntzen was on the deck and painted as he saw smoke coming from a door from the accomodation block to the main deck. He climbed off the vessel to cool the hull with a water hose, but quickly had to flee due to the fierce smoke and raised alarm."

    Massive but weakened Irma lashes Florida with wind, rain
    http://www.msn.com/en-us/news/storm/massive-but-weakened-irma-lashes-florida-with-wind-rain/ar-AArB97C

    The monster storm measured more than 400 miles (640 kilometers) wide, and its winds of up to 130 mph (210 kph) sucked the ocean water out of bays, swamped much of downtown Miami and toppled at least three constructions cranes — two over downtown Miami and one in Fort Lauderdale.

    More than 3.3 million homes and businesses across the state lost power, and utility officials said it will take weeks to restore electricity to everyone.

    Meanwhile, more than 160,000 people waited in shelters statewide.

    “I’ve not heard of catastrophic damage. It doesn’t mean it doesn’t exist. It means it hasn’t gotten to us yet,” Koon said.
    In the low-lying Keys, where a storm surge of over 10 feet (3 meters) was recorded, appliances and furniture were seen floating away, and Monroe County spokeswoman Cammy Clark said the ocean waters were filled with navigation hazards, including sunken boats.

    Storm surge and tornadoes were two big concerns. The National Hurricane Center said a federal tide gauge in Naples reported a 7-foot (more than 2-meter) rise in water levels in just 90 minutes late Sunday. And an apparent tornado spun off by Irma destroyed six mobile homes in Palm Bay, midway up the Atlantic coast. Flooding was reported along Interstate 4, which cuts across Florida’s midsection.

    Life in a US government shelter
    http://robinwestenra.blogspot.com/2017/09/a-shelter-that-basically-looks-like.html

    Dear government shelters. 

    This has been the worst experience of my life as a civilian during a disaster. We have been placed in this so called shelter that basically looks like a concentration camp. 

    We have had officers walk above us on the platforms in the pictures below as if we are threats to a society. 

    We have been numbered as if we were the Jews of the holocaust. The walls are even color coordinated. 

    The so called food that you have given us has made people throw up and stay in the restrooms. 

    I understand that you have to have order in some form but treating us like this isn't right. Upon arrival to this facility my Red Cross bag "tooth brush, tooth paste, soap, a comb, and shampoo", was taken from me and thrown away. 

    Don't ask me why but the national guard took it at the metal detectors that us civilians have to walk through. Yet your men have been allowed to walk amongst us in the same building with their weapons on their hip. 

    This is not how you treat humans. [see pics]

  6. Irma weakens to tropical storm, batters Florida with powerful winds as it heads north
    http://www.msn.com/en-us/news/storm/irma-weakens-to-tropical-storm-batters-florida-with-powerful-winds-as-it-heads-north/ar-AArFFMz

    Irma weakened Monday morning from hurricane to a tropical storm as it moved about 100 miles north of Tampa, according to the National Hurricane Center, which said it was still producing some wind gusts near hurricane force.

    Irma was expected to continue losing force as its headed inland, and forecasters said it should be a tropical depression by Tuesday afternoon. But it maintained a remarkable reach, with hurricane-force winds extending 60 miles from the center and tropical-storm-force winds reaching more than 400 miles.

    The storm spent Sunday grinding along Florida’s southern tip with devastating fury — flattening homes, flooding the Keys and cutting power to more than 6 million customers across the state. Even as it diminished Monday to a Category 1 hurricane and then to a tropical storm, however, Irma was still far from through.

    The dense cluster of cities and suburbs around Tampa faced storm surges up to six feet above high tide — which could test the defenses of an area whose population has exploded in recent decades. The National Hurricane Center said storm-surge warnings could remain in effect for Tampa and other areas for days as Irma churns up the gulf, heading toward the Florida Panhandle on Monday afternoon before crossing into Georgia and on to Alabama.

  7. Oncologists don't like baking soda cancer treatment because it's too effective and is easy on the pocketbook
    https://www.sott.net/article/361689-Oncologists-dont-like-baking-soda-cancer-treatment-because-its-too-effective-and-is-easy-on-the-pocketbook

    [Baking soda] can also be used as a first-line medicinal for the treatment of cancer when taken orally with water (especially water with high magnesium content) or transdermally in medicinal baths. It can treat cancer, kidney disease, diabetes, influenza and even the common cold.

    "Studies have shown that dietary measures to boost bicarbonate levels can increase the pH of acidic tumors without upsetting the pH of the blood and healthy tissues. Animal models of human breast cancer show that oral sodium bicarbonate does indeed make tumors more alkaline and inhibit metastasis. Based on these studies, plus the fact that baking soda is safe and well tolerated, world renowned doctors such as Dr. Julian Whitaker have adopted successful cancer treatment protocols as part of an overall nutritional and immune support program for patients who are dealing with the disease."

    Healing with the turbulent powers of plasma jets?
    https://www.sott.net/article/361681-Healing-with-the-turbulent-powers-of-plasma-jets

    The plasma flows through a handheld, pen-sized instrument and exits as a high-speed jet. The jet mixes with ambient air, which is filled with chemical species such as oxygen, nitrogen and water vapor molecules. The fast-moving electrons in the plasma slam into these molecules, producing highly reactive species such as hydroxyl and nitric-oxide molecules. These radicals, as they're also called, are therapeutic.

    Scientists still aren't entirely sure why these plasma-produced radicals are so beneficial in human therapies. They hypothesize that the reactive particles may induce an immune response in the body or modify the biochemical signaling agents between cells. In the case of cancer, the radicals might also trigger an oxidative stress response. Because cancer cells are already in a more stressed state than healthy cells, the radicals may push the cancer cells over the edge, killing them while healthy cells remain unharmed. [more]

  8. Will Hurricane Irma finally change the way we talk about climate?
    http://www.desdemonadespair.net/2017/09/will-hurricane-irma-finally-change-way.html

    This month of extreme weather demolishes the old economic-cost paradigm — or should, if we could let ourselves really see climate change for what it is and what it does. Last week, Hurricane Harvey — an “unprecedented” storm, it was said, a “thousand year flood” — became the most expensive hurricane in American history, with damage running as high as $200 billion. A week later, we are looking at an even more unprecedentedly destructive storm, with Hurricane Irma now predicted to move up the Florida peninsula, potentially laying waste to Tampa and other cities along the state’s west coast, as well as Orlando and much of central Florida. Early estimates of potential damage run as far north as Atlanta and as high as $1 trillion. [more]
