Event Update For 2018-10-22
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.

2018-10-22 - Unknown gas odor hits two areas in school in Lowell (Massachusetts):
http://www.lowellsun.com/breakingnews/ci_32223226/super-rules-out-natural-gas-leak-at-lhs
Quote: "Acting Superintendent Jeannine Durkin says no gas was detected at Lowell High School after workers responded Monday morning to calls of unknown odors. In an email to a Sun reporter, Durkin wrote that the acting LHS senior custodian, the Lowell Public Schools Facilities Director and a city of Lowell HVAC technician responded to two separate calls of unknown odors at the school. One report came from library staff and the second was of a gas odor in Coburn Hall on the second floor."
Note: Excellent, no natural gas detected, so probably just some poison gas...

Teetering On The Brink Of Disaster: 14 Of 19 Bear Market Signals Have Now Been Triggered
ReplyDeletehttp://theeconomiccollapseblog.com/archives/teetering-on-the-brink-of-disaster-14-of-19-bear-market-signals-have-now-been-triggered
October 2018 is turning out to be a lot like October 2008. The S&P 500 has now fallen for 12 of the last 14 trading days, and it is on pace for its worst October since the last financial crisis. But the U.S. is actually in much better shape than the rest of the world at this point. Even though they have fallen precipitously in recent days, U.S. stocks are still up 3 percent for the year overall. On the other hand, global stocks (excluding the U.S.) are now down more than 10 percent for the year, and they are down more than 15 percent from the peak of the market in January. All it is going to take is a couple more really bad trading sessions to push global stocks into bear market territory.
And even though U.S. stocks are still outperforming the rest of the world, many are anticipating that the U.S. is definitely heading for a bear market as well. [more]
Waterfall Crash In Real-Time

What this era represents from end to end is a demographic disaster...
The casino is sliding down the slope of fake hope. The problem with a society full of vacuous salesmen is that they never know when to shut the fuck up. The inconvenient "end of the cycle" had to be abolished from the vernacular in order to prove that Suze Orman and her copious acolytes are not all totally clueless industry shills. Therefore stock must go vertical for the next two decades, or all bets are off...
"Stocks in the S&P 500 have dropped in 18 of the 23 days since peaking in September, roughly twice the frequency of the last three corrections.
the 200-day moving average on the S&P 500, just fell for the first time in 2 1/2 years." [more]

Austin urged to boil water as Texas flood shuts down treatment plants – Wettest autumn on record in Dallas
ReplyDeletehttp://www.desdemonadespair.net/2018/10/austin-urged-to-boil-water-as-texas.html
Silt and debris from floodwaters have overwhelmed Austin’s ability to produce clean water, prompting an unprecedented citywide alert Monday that urged residents to avoid drinking tap water without boiling it first.
By Monday evening, the situation led to a run on bottled water supplies at grocery stores throughout the region — and appeared to be worsening. City officials warned that water use was outpacing the amount of water being treated, and that residents needed to cut their personal water use by 15 to 20 percent to keep the city from running out of water altogether.

Record measles outbreak raging in Europe – “It’s unacceptable to have in the 21st century diseases that should have been and could have been eradicated”
http://www.desdemonadespair.net/2018/10/record-measles-outbreak-raging-in.html
A raging measles outbreak in Europe may be a warning sign of what could occur in the U.S. if something doesn't change soon, experts say.
So far this year, there have been 41,000 cases in Europe and 40 deaths, according to the World Health Organization. The European experience may offer a window on how quickly things can go awry when parents choose not to vaccinate their children, doctors caution.
Because measles is relatively rare in the U.S., many Americans have no idea of the disease's frightening impact and its stunning contagiousness.
Many forget that measles isn't just a childhood disease. [more]

An Entire [uninhabited] Hawaiian Island Has Just Vanished Off The Face of Earth

For East Island, a remote stretch of sand in the Hawaiian archipelago, it was only a matter of time. And that time just came.
Satellite images released this week reveal that the entirety of East Island was basically wiped out by powerful storm surges in the wake of Hurricane Walaka, one of the most intense Pacific hurricanes on record, which tore through the region earlier in the month. [more]

https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/us/hillary-clinton-barack-obama-and-cnn-offices-are-sent-pipe-bombs/ar-BBOPm1p
Pipe bombs were sent to a number of prominent Democrats, including former President Barack Obama and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, sparking an intense investigation on Wednesday into whether a bomber is going after people who have often been the subject of right-wing ire.
CNN also received a similar bomb, addressed to Mr. Obama’s C.I.A. director John Brennan, touching off a mass evacuation of the Time Warner Center in Midtown Manhattan, where the network is located.
Early this month, federal authorities said they intercepted multiple packages suspected of containing the lethal substance ricin, addressed to President Trump and at least two top Pentagon officials. [more]

Monsanto shrugs as Glyphosate destroys ecosystem
https://www.sott.net/article/399056-Monsanto-shrugs-as-Glyphosate-destroys-ecosystem
"Loss of insects is certain to have adverse effects on ecosystem functioning, as insects play a central role in a variety of processes, including pollination ... providing a food source for higher trophic levels such as birds, mammals and amphibians," the researchers from KES said in their report. "80% of wild plants are estimated to depend on insects for pollination, while 60% of birds rely on insects as a food source."
Our ability to free ourselves from this latest quandary depends on our ability to correctly answer the following question: will transnational corporations ever be able to concede that their products are harmful to the environment, if such honesty would mean losing many millions, even billions of dollars in profit? Tragically, it seems that mankind's level of common sense has not yet reached such a level of development, and that could be the cause of our ultimate downfall as a species. The loss of simple common sense. [more; i'd throw in a healthy dose of GREED too]
