Leaders scramble to avert 'dramatic spiral' in Ukraine
This was a Reuters report filed 5 hours before the big explosion hit the social media feed around the world.. Did the dramatic spiral already start?
The day when Merkel, Hollande, Putin talk ‘peace’ something big occurs.
In case you missed the GRAMMYS tonight in favor of some more positive activities, you missed Madge trying to out do herself..
Forgive me Madonna, I know you’re trying to show off the remaining sex appeal you possess.. but you left me just thinking that you simply forgot to secure your adult diaper before the night began..
Another video of whatever that explosion was in Ukraine Sunday..
….the highway to hell.
I am all in favor of this message, but can someone please get the President a towel!? His entire forehead looks like Richard Nixon’s top lip in the 1960 presidential debate with JFK..
His words were meaningful. But I couldn’t get passed the grease pit that developed on his face..
Isn’t the White House air conditioned anymore?
And this was pre-recorded?
yeeeaaassh…
Symbolism is strong with the GRAMMYS…
The timing couldn’t have been weirder. Don’t you say?
This is video of the purpoerted ‘nuke’ or something bomb going off in Ukraine.
While the world seems fixated on pagan rituals and Illuminati messages at the Grammy awards, this big news just happened..
This is a photo screen grab from a video making big waves on YouTube tonight.. Some are saying is evidence of a tactical nuclear weapon being used in Ukraine.. Others say it’s evidence if a chemical weapons plant being hit..
Some speculate it’s a nuke . Others say it’s just a big big blast..
All things are sketchy right now and rumors are sort if insane
I keep thinking back to that nuclear clock moving closer to midnight..
This is a developing story worth watching..
You can read the only bit if mainstream link source I found on this so far here: http://www.theepochtimes.com/n3/1243441-did-a-tactical-nuke-just-go-off-in-ukraine-big-explosion-rocks-donetsk/
Reason.com takes me back..
Because in a nerdy political geek I recall vividly the argument about Hillary and this incident..
But to compare to Williams is not accurate. Journalists are expected to tell the truth. Politicians are known to misremember just about everything..
The headline from Techcrunch speaks volumes.. No new to adjust your Teevee.. It hears everything..
Art Bell continues to detail his plans for a July return.. Free streaming, and now a paid listening function that can help gain revenue..
Sure, it’s pure.
But it’s still business..
And should be as cheap as a STARBUCKS coffee..
American’s measles numbers pale in comparison to those in Europe..
MOMS ACROSS AMERICA infiltrate Monsanto by purchasing shares of stock! And now they were able to submit their shareholder proposal to make a plea about the dangers of MONSANTO.. An amazingly interesting and creative form of protest.. For those expecting a suddenly organic and NON-GMO Monsanto, don’t get your hopes up. That is of course unless you eat at the MONSANTO cafeteria.
Good article from MOVIEPIOLOT.COM: Why modern horror movies don’t get it right. I agree with the point of this article by Pedro Asdrubal Diaz.. modern horror is not memorable. Last night after many things led me to miss the ANNABELLE release in theaters, we finally found a copy in a REDBOX and watched it .. The group of us who saw it figured it was going to be a modern classic. It was not. It was actually quite forgettable and unmemorable.. Creativity seems to be completely lost.
Will there be some horror hope? Here are 10 movies of the horror genre to look forward to this year. UNFRIENDED looks creepy.. 31 looks avoidable in my opinion.. `KNOCK KNOCK looks ridiculous.. IT FOLLOWS will be great, judging from early reviews..SPRING looks creepy.. And POLTERGEIST? After a good trailer I am suddenly accepting this remake. We will see and time will tell if the film is as good as the two minute preview..
NBC THE CHIMES OF DOOM PLAY FOR BRIAN WILLIAMS
The NBC NEWS chimes of doom are famous.. when they break into the television norm to tell of breaking news, you know the world has changed in some way, whether small or large.. They sound, quite frankly, frightening. Especially for those who vividly recall things like 9/11, when the chimes were busy for days.. A memory recall for those not familiar with the doom-ish feeling that comes from hearing the NBC breaking news theme:
Those chimes are playing for Brian Williams now.
It seems quite unlikely that Brian Williams will be able to continue news in the current environment. As we now have come to learn, Williams is taking a leave of absence from the NBC NEWS job, writing this:
In the midst of a career spent covering and consuming news, it has become painfully apparent to me that I am presently too much a part of the news, due to my actions. “As managing editor of NBC Nightly News, I have decided to take myself off of my daily broadcast for the next several days, and Lester Holt has kindly agreed to sit in for me to allow us to adequately deal with this issue. Upon my return, I will continue my career-long effort to be worthy of the trust of those who place their trust in us.”
His statement sounded complex.. It’s difficult to figure out if he’s done for good or just hoping some of the feeding frenzy lessens.
I don’t think it will..
People following Williams on Twitter already know that his entire Twitter feed vanished early on think ‘my helicopter took fire’ scandal.. Even further, Williams became associated with interesting comments about watching bodies float by him after Katrina–trouble was, he wasn’t in a place of New Orleans where that was happening. He also said he got sick from drinking flood waters.. But it does not appear other surrounding him recall that vividly..
I ponder to myself if Williams just wants to fantasize about these tall tales as a way of giving himself more street cred? Drum up the news and include himself in there so he seems more trustworthy. Get into the action, and if the action doesn’t find you, just pretend it did.
Any return to the news, this age, won’t work.. You don’t have to look too far in the past to realize how truth often begins to slowly leak out and then sooner or later floodgates are broken. And the levees fail. In Williams’ case, even with NBC NEWS deleting his entire online history, there’s enough history in other places. Bill Cosby wanted to be ‘memed’ online. Instead he was maimed and his life turned upside down when this generation found out that the previous generation ignored rape claims for various women.
People will scour through every bit of public record for other flaws in Williams’ character. And when that starts to happen, undoubtedly even the cleanest person will become tarnished with some mistruth and consequence..
This is a lesson: Be honest. Be good. Be real.
People love real. And quite frankly, I think human beings are becoming a little better adapted at figuring out who is real and who isn’t..
Except on this one. Brian Williams had me fooled..
Did he commit a crime? No. Did he do something unforgivable? Not really. But did he include himself and brag about things that never occurred? Yes. And in doing so, he may very well have destroyed his career..
