The American heroin epidemic has become more dangerous, as reports of heroin laced with carfentanil are being reported throughout the country.
Carfentanil is the most potent opioid used commercially, 10,000 times stronger than morphine. It is a version or analogue of fentanyl, the painkiller that most recently made headlines with its role in the death of pop star Prince.
So far, overdoses in Florida, Ohio, and Indiana have been linked to the new mixture..
MORE DEATH COMING TO A STREET NEAR YOU. Or yours..
The linked article goes to the UK GUARDIAN.. which describes how MKULTRA was real.. and how Americans were drugged with LSD without knowing it for secret clandestine experiments on mind control, remote viewing, and other otherworldly things..
…..and of course, it’s not done these days.. Right?
It is called Proxima b.. it is a little over 4 light years away..
And it could harbor life. Or at least running water..
Scientists say this is one of the best places to have one of the best chances where life can be substained..
One astronomer likened it to a flashing neon sign.
“I’m the nearest star, and I have a potentially habitable planet!” said R. Paul Butler, an astronomer at the Carnegie Institution for Science and a member of the team that made the discovery.
This is exciting news.. should be top story status. While it’s not, the eventual outcome could very well be–the future when life on another planet is announced with surity..
At this point, it is being called ‘pure speculation’ that life could actually exist here..
The press release from the European Space Agency, however, is exciting with its implications and slightly scary with the ramifications that if life is there, it could be life we don’t want to meet.
U.S. soccer again has suspended goalkeeper Hope Solo from the women’s national team, but unlike last year, she won’t be back in 30 days. Citing Solo’s accusation of cowardice among Sweden’s players after the team beat the U.S. in the Olympic quarterfinals in Rio de Janeiro, U.S. officials booted Solo for six months.
It may an old wives tale that blood moon bring bad news with them. But if I would have seen this last night I would have been a bit shell shocked by the sight..
The move DON’T BREATHE looks amazing, scary, and extremely creative.. I predict it is going to be one of the best horror films of this style in some time, and also one of the biggest movies of the summer .. This has been a wonderful year for horror so far–the summer has been profitable for the genre as well..
First off, movie reviewers are just as meaningful as CNN these days. In CNN’s case, things have gotten so bad for their election all Trump network, ratings have gone down. Tanked so much as a matter of fact that now CNN is being beaten by the once barely alive MSNBC.. In the case of movie reviews? All of those negative reviews for SUICIDE SQUAD did not matter one bit.. Not at all.
Instead, people went to see it anyway. More than once as a matter of fact. (Me included.)
Was SUICIDE SQUAD everything it could be? No .. but for a summer time comic book film, it was successful for DC, which hasn’t been stellar in the comic movie world as of late..
Movies come and go. In the summer, most of the time, they are one week wonders that rise with big numbers and fall by 80% the next week. Every now and then a sleeper comes along. SUICIDE SQUAD was not a sleeper, but it also wasn’t a dud. The movie made good money not only in the United States but also international box offices, too.. Harley Quinn is getting her own spinoff. And Jared Leto as the Joker?Eh.. Ithat point I will be kind and not comment.
SO let the movie pundits jump with glee! Suicide Squad is finally going to be dethroned. They tell us.
They tell us a lot.
And most people stopped listening.
But DON’T BREATHE? I am happy–estatic as a matter of fact–that a horror movie is going to bring down a comic book movie.
This has been a good summer for film . At least the types of films Iike.
The ASSOCIATED PRESS has rocked the 2016 campaign..
Directly from their dispatch filed late last night:
WASHINGTON (AP) — More than half the people outside the government who met with Hillary Clinton while she was secretary of state gave money — either personally or through companies or groups — to the Clinton Foundation. It’s an extraordinary proportion indicating her possible ethics challenges if elected president.
At least 85 of 154 people from private interests who met or had phone conversations scheduled with Clinton while she led the State Department donated to her family charity or pledged commitments to its international programs, according to a review of State Department calendars released so far to The Associated Press. Combined, the 85 donors contributed as much as $156 million. At least 40 donated more than $100,000 each, and 20 gave more than $1 million.
Narratives quickly changing. One day offense and pickle jars. The next day defense and email wars ..
Germany’s European Southern Observatory will hold a press conference Wednesday to discuss a new discovery, which a source familiar with the announcement talked about to German media.
“The still nameless planet is believed to be Earth-like and orbits at a distance to Proxima Centauri that could allow it to have liquid water on its surface — an important requirement for the emergence of life,” the source told Der Spiegel. “Never before have scientists discovered a second Earth that is so close by.”
The first thought I had! If pyshics changes ever so slightly and we discover a faster way to move through out solar system and the universe, we can potentially reach this “close” planet during MAYBE my lifetime, but more likely my young son’s.
The second thought.. And the frightening one.. What if this planet is the bizarro world version of us!? What if it’s the upside down of earth, where things are reversed.. or it’s a parrellel us and there’s some alternate ME and YOU reading this now?
Maybe we can observe.. but not contact.
But it sure would be amazing to see what exists on a planet very similar in size to our home. With water. And maybe land. And probably life?
Stunning news coming to rock your normalcy bias VERY VERY SOON.
This is a scene from central Italy where a stong quake has struck.. Both the living and dead are being pulled from rubble with more many suspected as being trapped.. The death toll has quickly risen and will most likely continue to do so throughout the next 24 hours …
There are hamlets destroyed, buildings decimated, and shocks felt as far as Rome..
Initial reports say aftershocks continue and buildings continue to sway with each shake..
As I wrote before, my prayers go out to friends and readers within Italy..
A few days ago I wrote that the current flooding in Louisiana would become even more tragic if a hurricane hit this year as well..
Cue the weather model. Look at this one, which blows up a hurricane big time in the Gulf and brings the storm in over the same locations that both Katrina hit and the latest round of extreme flooding ..
Praying that this does not happen. But it’s something people in the area need to be paying attention too starting immediately..
This is a potential storm and potential track to watch for in Florida, the gulf coast states, and the east coast. The target on this is 240 hours from now..
The track and intensity are both still completely Unknown..
I came across the linked article by searching online whether people think cicadas are louder this year than other years. I think they are ..
What I found however showcases the reasons they scream in terror when the sun goes down..
By joining their voices, male cicadas reach a volume that repels birds on the prowl for their next meal.
But escaping death-by-bird only sets cicadas up for a far worse fate. The bugs are also hunted by the cicada killer wasp, which, frankly, sounds like a sociopath.
If you’ve ever seen a cicada carried off by the Hannibal Lecter of the wasp family, thank your lucky stars you’re human, because what happens next is the stuff of nightmares.
After delivering a paralyzing sting, female cicada-killers drag their immobilized prey to an underground chamber of horrors.
The cicada is placed in a torture cell, where the wasp lays an egg on it. When a larva hatches from the egg, it immediately begins feasting on the cicada.
Horrific to say the least. The Hannibal Lector comparison hit the nail for me..
This is an image of Ground Zero radio host Clyde Lewis at a conerence this weekend.. He looks good. He lost 100 pounds, recently broadcasting that a diet change and infusion of nutrients is helping with weight loss..
That is encouraging. Whatever he is doing hopefully it continues. His radio show is getting bigger by the day and his voice is the best since Art Bell..
Here is to your health Clyde! And decades more as the voice of late night paranormal radio!
This is a photo of Tim Burton in 1967 showcasing a Halloween costume made for him by his mother.. Perhaps we can see the vivid inspiration that eventually would go on to become the NIGHTMARE BEFORE CHRISTMAS..
The photo source is REDDIT, and there is where lots of commentary about the picture was exchanged (http://ift.tt/2bzF4xv)
Bill Clinton is preparing to be “first dude,” and that includes the quadrennial tradition of presidential candidate spouses submitting cookie recipes.
The former president of the United States, along with Melania Trump, Donald Trump’s wife, submitted cookie recipes for Family Circle magazine’s Presidential Cookie Poll, where readers pick between the two cookie recipes.
The poll, which has been held during the fall of every general election year since 1992, is the latest sign in Clinton’s historic candidacy, where the traditional responsibilities of the first lady could fall to a man for the first time.
The script centers on a man (Pena) who is investigating a woman’s death set in the notorious and infamous Cecil Hotel. Brandon and Phillip Murphy wrote the initial script, which landed on the 2014 Black List and 2014 Blood List. Evan Dickson also worked on the project with the most recent draft being written by Kevin Kolsch and Dennis Widmyer, the duo behind the 2014 horror thriller Starry Eyes.
Matt Tolmach is producing as is Daniela Cristina Cretu. David Manpearl is also producing. Matt Milam and Dan Kagan is overseeing for the studio.
This show has been on for as long as I have been alive. When I was young, my mom and dad loved politics. They debated at the dinner table—those old adages of religion and politics not being discussed was certainly not true in my family..
And from an early age in life, I recall the voice of John McLaughlin signing off the weekly Sunday show with a “bye bye”… As I turned 13, this show featuring old farts bantering about presidents and Congress became one of the chief reasons I eventually got interested in politics and current events…
I even vividly recall one hot summer morning when I was out riding bikes with friends. . looking at my watch and realizing it was 11:25 am.. And I burned two-wheeled rubber just to make it home in time for the half hour dedication to the absurdity that is American politics..
The show was a must see every week. As tech roared in and time wore out, I normally caught the show on Monday, after Sunday, online…
But the impact is clear. On my life and so many others.
John McLaughlin was a lighthouse during turblent times. He made sense of nonsense and political intrigue. He wore bow ties on New Years and had one of the quickest and yet most amazing shows I have ever seen.
If you wanted to know anyting about politics, the McLaughlin Group outlived them all. Outlived the Capitol Gang. Outlived Brinkley.. Russert.. it was a perplexing thing to understand for some new to it.. but after a few weeks, it all made perfect sense.
This Sunday will be the last day. The final show.. And without John McLaughlin, no more “bye byes” … or Gobble Gobbles on Thanksgiving..
The surveillance video from Duffy’s Sports Grill in Jupiter has been released Friday, giving new insight into what led up to the deadly cannibal attack near Tequesta.
It’s at that restaurant where investigators say 19-year-old
Austin Harrouff
had dinner with relatives and stormed out following an argument with his father.
This is the second cannibal attack in Florida in just a few years..
There are people blaming this on drugs. But .. what if it’s not..
This is a naked sculpture of Donald Trump. I am saving your eyes and only showcasing the top up. A Google search can provide you with the REST of the story down below. This is a protest sculpture that has been popping up throughout the country..
The reason I show it: It gave me and my computer an interesting twist in life tonight…
While combing through news articles I stumbled across a Huffington Post story about how seeing that can force one to not unsee it.. it’s forever imprinted into your brain.
For me, it froze the computer immediately. The screen actually froze–embarassing I know–on the Full Monty version of the Trump statue. And then to complicate matters further, the computer actually is not even turning on now!
It is the curse of the Trump package, perhaps.
I broadcast this short dispatch with a warning: Avoid looking at the images at all costs! Your computer hardware may depend on it.
