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.

Quote:"The so-called methane seeps in the Condamine River near Chinchilla were reported in 2012, triggering a series of investigations.

'There have been changes in the flux of methane through the river over the past 12 months,' he said. The ABC visited the most prominent methane seep in the river about six kilometres west of the Chinchilla weir, observing large, concentrated bubbles rising to the water's surface."

http://www.volcanodiscovery.com/volcano-activity/news/56441/Volcanic-activity-worldwide-14-Feb-2016-Semeru-volcano-Dukono-Sinabung-Momotombo.html

Quote:"According to the Nicaraguan Institute of Territorial Studies (INETER), the Telica volcano, located in the Leon department, erupted at 8:28 a.m. Saturday morning, launching a column of ash and gas some 1,000 meters (3,280 feet) into the air. At least 20 smaller eruptions were recorded at the volcano in the subsequent hours. Ashfall was reported in some nearby communities. About two hours after the first explosion at Telica, the Momotombo volcano - which had been essentially dormant for 100 years before exploding to life in December - launched a column of ash and gas more than 1,600 feet (500 meters) into the air."

Category: Variety Pack

2016-02-15 - Unknown gas kills flowers, poisons people, in town in the Irkutsk Region (Russia):
http://siberiantimes.com/ecology/others/news/n0585-mystery-gas-hits-town-in-irkutsk-region-as-flowers-die-and-people-suffer-toxic-poisoning/

Quote:"Dmitry Bogdanov, 26, Oksana's son, said: 'I went out to the street, and almost lost consciousness. I called the ambulance, and they brought me to hospital.' The diagnosis was - acute toxic poisoning."

Quote:"Another resident nearby Olga Voitishenko, 37, a mother of one, said: 'We are afraid that one day we will go to bed and never wake up. I fear for my child.' She invited inspectors from Rospotrebnadzor, in charge of protecting consumer rights in Russia. They ~~could~~ would not identify the gas but said it was 60 times over allowable levels."

Note: Obviously they DID identify the gas, else they couldn't know what the allowable levels are. So they're purposely CHOOSING not to tell the people what the gas is that's poisoning them. It's probably hydrogen sulfide. And that can't be too confidence-inspiring there, to know your government is hiding information from you while you suffer and die. But then all governments are working diligently to hide what's happening from their people, and Russia is no different in that respect than any other country. A big cloud of hydrogen sulfide hit Moscow in late 2014, mentioned in the 2014-11-10 update...

2016-02-15 - 'Chemical smell' and lack of oxygen hit Krasnoyarsk (Russia):
http://siberiantimes.com/ecology/others/news/n0553-clear-the-smog-demand-residents-of-historic-siberian-city/

Quote:"Krasnoyarsk's skies have been black since the start of the New Year, with locals complaining of 'chemical smell', lack of oxygen."

2016-02-15 - Mysterious explosion rattles people across broad swath of northern Georgia:

2016-02-15 - Man films the Condamine River burning as methane bubbles up, in Chinchilla (Australia):
http://www.arcamax.com/entertainment/weirdnews/s-1800392
http://www.upi.com/Odd_News/2016/02/15/Gas-bubbles-fuel-fire-on-surface-of-Australian-river/9261455547852/
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-3447153/Condamine-River-methane-bubbles-exploding-surface-smells-fish.html
http://www.itv.com/news/2016-02-15/australian-river-is-bubbling-hot-suspected-gas-leak-fuels-fire-on-water-of-condamine-river/

Quote:"An Australian man captured photos of flames on the surface of the Condamine River, which has experienced mysterious methane bubbling for nearly four years. Jon Jenkyn posted photos to Facebook showing the Condamine River's surface on fire near Chinchilla, where methane first started bubbling to the surface in 2012."

Note: The Meiyu River ignited in coastal Wenzhou (China) in 2014, mentioned in the 2014-03-08 update. So far as I know, that was the first river to burn. Bellandur Lake has caught fire a couple of times in Bengaluru (India), first mentioned in the 2015-05-16 update. Methane belched up from a pond in Lambton Shores (Canada), mentioned in the 2015-06-17 update. Methane and hydrogen sulfide belched from coastal Santa Monica Bay, mentioned in the 2013-03-03 update. And so on and so on. As more and more bodies of water become contaminated with flammable methane and hydrogen sulfide, expect to see more bodies of water burning. And now that the huge methane clathrate deposits are melting off both the US East and West Coasts, it is not at all inconceivable that we'll see the oceans themselves burning, and those fires may be impossible to extinguish and may burn for a very very long time...

Quote:"A plane’s engine caught fire Monday night at the Orlando International Airport, the airport said. Silver Airlines Flight 70 was parked [at] a gate when someone saw flames coming from the engine shortly after 8 p.m., said Carolyn Fennell, an airport spokeswoman."

2016-02-15 - Passenger plane hit by smoke in the cockpit, plane makes emergency landing at airport near Washington DC:

Quote:"An Alaska Airlines flight was diverted to Dulles International Airport this morning, just 16 minutes after taking off from nearby Reagan National Airport, due to smoke in the cockpit, the airline confirmed to ABC News."

Note: A passenger plane engine just burst into flame the day prior too, at the airport in Brasilia (Brazil), mentioned in the 2016-02-14 update. These are the 15th and 16th aircraft to smoke/burn/explode in 2016...

2016-02-15 - Three women found dead in home just after 7:30 AM in Hawaiian Gardens (California), car running:
http://abc7.com/news/3-women-found-dead-in-hawaiian-gardens-home/1201495/
http://abcnews.go.com/US/wireStory/women-found-dead-house-carbon-monoxide-36957203
http://www.presstelegram.com/general-news/20160215/3-found-dead-at-hawaiian-gardens-home-deputies-overwhelmed-by-fumes

Note: Maybe the car started itself while they were sleeping. Quite a number of vehicles have started themselves in recent years, sometimes while bursting into flame, but not always. That's yet another risk of parking a vehicle in an attached garage now: the vehicle can burst into flame and kill you that way, or it can start itself and gas you to death with carbon monoxide in your sleep. Park a vehicle in an attached garage nowadays and you're gambling with your life...

2016-02-15 - Man, 70, burns to death sitting in chair at home in coastal Chesconessex (Virginia):
http://www.delmarvanow.com/story/news/local/maryland/2016/02/16/body-idd-fatal-va-shore-fire-taken-examiner/80463594/

Quote:"'Apparently his clothes caught on fire. Nothing else was burned, not even the chair, really,' Schmid said."

Note: Here's a Google Maps link of the area. I've warned about this many times: clothes are adsorbing methane and/or hydrogen sulfide. While you might smell hydrogen sulfide, you definitely won't smell methane, since it's odorless. Then your clothes can ignite via static electricity, any heat source, an electronic device, etc, and these fires will burn hot and will frequently be fatal. His clothes probably got contaminated while he was outdoors - right on the coast near where 5 trillion pounds of methane are dissociating, probably not coincidentally - then he came inside, had a seat, ignited and burned to death. That's why his chair wasn't too burned - it hadn't been contaminated like his clothes were...

2016-02-15 - Man, bus driver, foams at the mouth and slumps over dead, bus crashes, near Kolhapur (India), 25 injured:

2016-02-16 - Car bursts into flame while parked in underground carpark at apartments, fire spreads to building, in Canyon County (California):
http://www.signalscv.com/section/36/article/148714/

Quote:"Upon arrival, fire crews found a 'vehicle on fire in an underground garage,' said Los Angeles County Fire Department Dispatch Supervisor Miguel Roneles. The blaze then spread to a unit above the garage..."

Note: Same thing as all the various underground electrical fires. Hydrogen sulfide, reactive with copper, especially electrified copper, is heavier than air, so one would expect there to be a rise in underground 'electrical fires' as the atmospheric contamination intensifies, and there certainly has been. All vehicles are now randomly-igniting firebombs that can go off at any time, whether parked or being driven. Plenty of people have lost their homes and their lives that way, so park a vehicle near where you live at your own risk...

http://newjersey.news12.com/news/firefighter-injured-in-harmony-township-recycling-facility-fire-1.11479838

Quote:"The pole barn that burned is used to park recycling trucks, Garrison said. Seven of those vehicles and a forklift were inside when the fire started, he said. The trucks were empty, he added."

The person killed in this event was the owner of the pizzeria, not the driver...

2016-02-17 - Of the nine hottest months ever recorded by humans on Earth, all were in the last nine months:
http://www.usnews.com/news/science/articles/2016-02-17/the-heat-goes-on-earth-sets-9th-straight-monthly-record
http://www.washingtonpost.com/news/energy-environment/wp/2016/02/18/scientists-are-floored-by-whats-happening-in-the-arctic-right-now/

Quote:"The January figures are in, and Earth's string of hottest-months-on-record has now reached nine in a row. But NASA said January stood out: The temperature was above normal by the highest margin of any month on record."

Note: Looks like most of the heat is in the far north, where methane is belching from the seas. That's a feeback loop kicking into gear there. As the methane is released, the temps rise. As the temps rise, more methane is released. Now that the methane clathrates have started to give up the ghost off the US East and West Coasts and off the coast of New Zealand and various other places too, this feedback loop will intensify and spread. Other consequences of such vast amounts of methane spewing into the atmosphere: 1) the destruction of the oxidizing capacity of the atmosphere, resulting in an increasingly white Sun (as opposed to the yellow Sun many of us remember) and rising - and eventually lethal - levels of UV hitting the planet; and 2) more water entering the atmosphere as methane reacts away hydroxyl radicals and ozone, causing more high-precip events, which results in more incidents involving heavy rain and flooding and large amounts of snowfall, which we're already seeing...

2016-02-18 - Elementary school being hit by hydrogen sulfide, people sickening, in coastal Orleans Parish (Louisiana):
http://theadvocate.com/news/neworleans/neworleansnews/14920866-32/noxious-odors-upset-students-parents-at-bethune-elementary

Quote:"Those tests found nothing amiss, state documents show. But they did not check for hydrogen sulfide gas, which can cause nausea, airway problems and other issues during prolonged exposure, according to the U.S. Department of Labor. State health inspectors, in a later test, found concentrations of that gas, as well as carbon monoxide in the air."

2016-02-18 - Landfill spewing hydrogen sulfide in Orange County (Florida):
http://www.fox35orlando.com/home/93438733-story

Quote:"Part of the landfill is undergoing construction and manager Jim Becker says an outside consultant advised them to mix the construction and demolition debris with household waste as a more affordable approach and it's that combination, he says, that is creating a hydrogen sulfide emission, or rotten egg smell."

2016-02-18 - Gold Bar Park regularly being hit by hydrogen sulfide in Edmonton (Canada):
http://globalnews.ca/news/2529293/gold-bar-park-users-cause-a-stink-over-h2s-concerns/

Quote:"The World Health Organization website says that 'there are no studies on effects of long-term exposure to hydrogen sulfide in animals.'"

Quote:"Bennett said that the lack of data about long-term low dose exposure in humans is also concerning."

Note: That's right, nobody knows what it does to people or animals with long-term chronic exposure, even at low levels. But it's a deadly poison, as deadly as hydrogen cyanide which is what they use to execute people in gas chambers, so there's no way the effects are GOOD. Brain damage, kidney damage, heart damage, who knows. And he's not even thinking about a variety of other problems. For example, hydrogen sulfide will adsorb onto matter and then you can get poisoned by touch. And while the levels they measured are low, it's a heavier-than-air gas which will tend to flow to low-lying areas and then it will concentrate, and the levels in THOSE areas may sometimes cause serious problems and possibly even kill people and animals from time to time. And you won't see it, in the air or when adsorbed onto matter, because it's invisible, and when it's adsorbed onto matter you won't smell it either (but you should never count on smelling it anyway since it causes 'olfactory fatigue' and you quickly stop being ABLE to smell it even if it's present)...

2016-02-18 - Several students sickened by unknown cause, nausea and vomiting, at school in coastal Miami (Florida):
http://www.wsvn.com/story/31254743/several-people-reported-sick-at-maya-angelou-elementary-school-miami-fire-rescue

Quote:"According to City of Miami Fire, four students were transported to the hospital to be treated for nausea and vomiting, Thursday, just before noon. The school is located at 1850 N.W. 32nd St. in Miami. The students were between the ages of 9 to 11. It remains unknown what made them sick."

2016-02-18 - Woman, 69, goes missing while diving near coastal Puako (Hawaii):
http://www.westhawaiitoday.com/news/local-news/coast-guard-fire-department-searching-missing-diver-puako

Note: Hydrogen sulfide is also water-soluble, so swimming around in poison water isn't apt to be too conducive to living a long life. It's also bubbling up from the ocean floors, which is why so many deep-diving or bottom-dwelling ocean creatures have been dying in recent years. Numerous divers, including a world-class free-diver, have died mysteriously in the water, and numerous people have collapsed dead after contact with water or while just being NEAR water. And since hydrogen sulfide doesn't stick around in the body, nobody is likely to find that as a cause, although a smart ME in Kansas City did figure out that a woman was gassed to death in her home by hydrogen sulfide, but he probably did the autopsy quickly after she was dead, within a few hours, before the hydrogen sulfide had degraded entirely. Mostly it's killing people and they just call it 'Sudden Adult Death Sydrome' or 'untimely death' or 'unexplained' or whatever. In any case, the best way to tell if water is contaminated is by touching it or drinking it - if you don't die then it was safe!

http://www.rt.com/usa/333054-bush-fire-jersey-refinery/
http://www.sott.net/article/312643-Bush-fire-blazes-near-New-Jersey-oil-refinery

Quote:"A brush fire spread through a grassy area on the banks of the Delaware River in Gloucester County Friday night, moving close to a crude oil storage facility. The fire consumed at least 25 acres near Crown Point Road and 9th Street in Westville, New Jersey, county dispatchers said. It started around 9 p.m. Friday."

Note: Two rivers have burned so far (the rivers themselves). Watch for more beachside fires and fires along the banks of rivers and lakes and the like. Eventually more bodies of water will burn themselves, but as time goes on more fires will also be igniting right next to bodies of water, as is already happening...

2016-02-20 - Hydrogen sulfide regularly hitting large areas in Sioux City (Iowa):
http://siouxcityjournal.com/news/sioux-city-looks-to-get-rid-of-rotten-egg-smell/article_b4336202-7580-5210-ba59-bd99ca92a14d.html

Quote:"Mark Simms, the city’s utilities director, said the odor at the York lift station comes from hydrogen sulfide, a naturally occurring chemical in wastewaste that closely resembles rotten eggs."

http://www.twcnews.com/nys/rochester/news/2016/02/20/potential-carbon-monoxide-leak-at-greece-olive-garden.html
http://www.facebook.com/TWCNewsRochester/posts/1076148875748850

Quote:"Crews evacuated a popular restaurant in Greece today because of a potential carbon monoxide leak. It happened at the Olive Garden on Route 104 in Greece. Fire crews left the restaurant as they were trying to find the source of that carbon monoxide leak. Police say a manager at the Olive Garden called 911 after employees complained of a strange odor that made them feel sick. Nine of those employees were taken to the hospital for evaluation."

Note: Somebody ought to tell these fire crews and cops that carbon monoxide is called 'the silent killer' because it's odorless, so if these people smelled 'a strange odor', obviously it wasn't carbon monoxide...

2016-02-20 - Burn barrel explodes and kills man at home in coastal Camden (North Carolina):

http://hisz.rsoe.hu/alertmap/database/?pageid=event_desc&edis_id=BH-20160220-52170-NGA

Quote:"One mother, who lost three of her children to the disease, said that apart from the rashes on their bodies, they also vomited blood before they died."

Note: Could be these kids were outdoors touching matter or water contaminated with hydrogen sulfide blowing in off the ocean. That would explain both skin rashes and the vomiting of blood and the rapid-onset death. No way was this measles. Many terrible fires and explosions have hit this area too...

Quote:"Post mortem examination conducted by Dr. Jenniefer Valdez, municipal health officer, reveals that the cause of death is 'sudden unintended nocturnal death syndrome.'"

Note: Now we've got a new made-up meaningless explains-nothing acronym - SUNDS! I would've thought SADS, Sudden Adult Death Syndrome, was good enough for all the people mysteriously dropping dead, but now if they die in the wee hours, hey, maybe it was SUNDS instead of SADS. Not like they could tell the difference, since there isn't any difference other than the time of death, and neither one means anything...
