Weather. Melting snow. Non melting snow. And a big storm in Britain.. today's climate news

If a disaster can strike with only 3 inches of snow in the South, it’s worth asking what would a REAL crisis look like?


Drivers are finally returning to the highway to reclaim their abandoned cars..

Why the South fell apart when it snowed..


COME ON BABY LIGHT MY FIRE: Unless you lived under a rock, or in a snow bank, you have been seeing oodles upon oodles of videos posted within the last 48 hours of residents of the South trying to light their snow on fire.. There are rumors of “fake snow,” and military geo-engineered precipitation.. The snow does not melt, and it turns black.. And ever sinceJanuary 30, these videos have been going viral .. It appears very few people understand sublimation, which is most likely the culprit in most of the videos being posted.. Also people who are seeing this storm may never have seen snow in person before.. And finally, we have become a nation that sees long chemical trails being left in the sky and we have become paranoid.. But as Clyde Lewis asked on his radio show GROUND ZERO last night, why in the world did someone figure they’d try to light their snow on fire to begin with and how did this go viral!?
The snow can be as cold as hell, or as hot as fire.. BURN BABY BURN..



A massive storm of snow and rain is moving towards Britain.. it’s also bringing 150 MPH winds.. you read that right, 150 MPH winds… it’s being called “APOCALYPTIC” .. Storm Brigid is raging..

150 frozen SHARKS have been found along the Gulf Coast!

State of the Union draws 33.3 million viewers, lowest since 2000

It was still 33.3 million strong.


Or 33.3 million unemployed, wondering what Obama was going to do to help them…


I guess


FOX NEWS won in the cable news coverage. Which means millions of people watched Obama just to get really, really mad at everything he said.


No one said ‘you lied!’ in the Chamber. But it probably happened in homes across the fruity plain..


According to Nielsen SocialGuide, Americans sent out 2.1 million tweets about the address. 


And 2 million of them went unread.

Nursing home haunts

Paper reports of paranormal activity in Michigan nursing home.. report indicates that staff often see those who have died, now even expecting visits from those who pass away in home.. 


Money quote from the article:



"On Sunday, Aug. 22, 2010, another caregiver at the assisted living center, whom we will address as Amanda, was working second shift when she went to attend a resident in need. When she returned to her medical cart in the hall, she found a message scribbled out in black ink. It read: “We are from the plane — lost — we will not hurt you! Honest!””

The Matt Drudge Exit Plan Paranoia


Matt Drudge tweeted “have an exit plan” .. And Clyde Lewis became quite freaked out about it, enough so that if was the topic of his show last night..


The Drudge ‘have an exit plan’ tweet has raised lots of people’s eyebrows and concerns.. 


Mac Slavo wrote that he thinks Drudge’s tweet is evidence of insider information about something dramatically awful occurring soon.. 

Fear and loathing in the Ukraine: The nation may be on the brink of civil war, despite overtures from the government to get rid of some stringent anti-protesting laws that started the insurrection..


The ex-president of the Ukraine, Leonid Kravchuk, says the nation is in a very dangerous place right now.. 


Judging from images and reports from the nation, we couldn’t agree more..


And while the world media reports the protests as though they are new (American media isn’t really reporting a thing about them!) it’s worth noting that they go back further than what some may think..


Tensions have been boiling for some time, and in December, if you recall, protesters in Ukraine topped a statue of Lenin..

Bigfoot reported in Potter Co.

Some Sasquatch hunters think they found the Yetti in Potter County, PA.


And judging from the women in Potter County, many men see them every morning in their beds..

Those who went to Catholic school or had any religion in their childhood upbringing remembers that mean nun, or nuns, who created a living hell .. 


But that is nothing compared to the atrocity that took place in Ireland..


Sisters of no mercy: This is a terrible story coming from Ireland.. Irish nuns forced children to eat their own vomit and put soiled bed sheets on their heads and punishment.. Even more, the children were sexually abused, humiliated, and physically assaulted. According to the report on the Sisters of Nazareth children’s homes in Londonberry, Northern Ireland, the abused children were forced to bathe in disinfectant, beaten for wetting the bed and locked in cupboards’..

Good luck John.

National Guard Distributes Food Packets Given To Soldiers In Afghanistan To Stranded Motorists

Cold air.
Warm heart.


The story from the South is amazing today.. such goodness and compassion, with such chaos and confusion. 


As I wrote in an earlier post, hindsight is 20/20.. But when warnings of a dramatically awful weather system like this are being given, local and state officials should immediately act in the best interest of citizens—and children.


No need to make a scandal of this. But as weather patterns change and get extreme, we all will need to learn how to adapt.. 


This is a work in progress.


But we better start learning that the old times of ‘normal’ are over.. Extremes are here. 


Preparing is key.

Yes the South rarely gets snow, but they do have emergency management agencies—agencies that had a fair amount of warning on how dangerous this event would be. Hindsight is 20/39 but when it comes to the safety of children, overdoing it is forgivable. They should have been better prepared

55 bodies found near former Florida reform school. Reuters reports this:



“On a hillside in the rolling, tall-pine forests near the Alabama-Georgia border, a team of more than 50 searchers from nine agencies last year dug up the graves to check out local legends and family tales of boys, mostly black, who died or disappeared without explanation from the Dozier School for Boys early in the last century.The school, infamous for accounts of brutality told by former inmates, was closed by the state in 2011.”




I did more research about this school, and everything I found was so horrendous.. so sad.. so depressing. Humanity at its worst.

The scariest potentially real exorcism story ever told

Forget Hollywood! A real story today is surfacing from Gary Indiana.. Somewhat credible news sources (I kid the DAILY NEWS, really I do) like the New York daily news have reported on the Latoya Ammons story.. 

The The Indy STAR first reported on the matter and the incredible instances..

Ammons says that her family has been possessed by demons since moving into their home in Gary Indiana .. According to the STAR report, medical staff have confirmed that the Ammons children were levitating and walking on walls in a hospital!

From the STAR:


Gary police Capt. Charles Austin said it was the strangest story he had ever heard.

Austin, a 36-year veteran of the Gary Police Department, said he initially thought Indianapolis resident Latoya Ammons and her family concocted an elaborate tale as a way to make money. But after several visits to their home and interviews with witnesses, Austin said simply, “I am a believer.”



It all started with flies. It ended with exorcisms. And there a lot of very intense things in between. 

Before judging the story as an attempt to get movie makers to find the Ammons, I suggest you read the story in its entirety first..

The most important thing to realize: Very competent and professional people seem to be in agreement that something dark and sinister haunted this family.. I did myself, at this point, to be much less skeptical than I was when I first saw the headlines..amazing story to start a terror Tuesday..

A weird night in Claremore County in Oklahoma.. A loud explosion was heard on January 26 .. Police received calls from people thinking a bomb went off.. The noises were also heard in Rogers County in the same state.. Just more strange noises, loud booms.. bangs.. And oddities from the planet Earth. Something natural, perhaps.. something otherworldly ..? Maybe not. Either way it is creepy to hear on audio, I could not even imagine being a resident and waking to such a haunting, or heavenly, noise..

NSA spying through Angry Birds

Most of America seemed to just disregard months of information about the Edward Snowden leaks.. Spying? eh.. surveillance? whattava.. Listening through my phone? Figured.


But..


SPYING ON MY THROUGH ANGRY BIRDS!? What the hell, yo!


It’s true!


According to some earth shattering information being revealed now, Edward Snowden’s leaked documents show that the NSA is spying on people through the popular game ANGRY BIRDS. 


Damage control now:



Angry Birds maker Rovio said it had no knowledge of any NSA or GCHQ programs or mechanisms for tapping into its users’ data.


"Rovio doesn’t have any previous knowledge of this matter, and have not been aware of such activity in 3rd party advertising networks," said Saara Bergstrom, Rovio’s VP of marketing and communications. "Nor do we have any involvement with the organizations you mentioned [NSA and GCHQ]."



But the damage is already done. The Black Bomb Bird already struck. But will you delete? Or just keep playing until you finish the game?

Quentin Tarantino Suing Gawker Over Leaked 'Hateful Eight' Script (Exclusive)

"Gawker Media has made a business of predatory journalism, violating people’s rights to make a buck," says Tarantino’s lawsuit. "This time, they went too far. Rather than merely publishing a news story reporting that Plaintiff’s screenplay may have been circulating in Hollywood without his permission, Gawker Media crossed the journalistic line by promoting itself to the public as the first source to read the entire Screenplay illegally."

Every now and then, mainstream media sources run a story that causes eyebrows to raise.. Today is no different.. The ASSOCIATED PRESS published an article about the New Madrid fault line and how it’s alive and active. The government held a great American ‘shake out’ last year as a practice to what would happen if the New Madrid moved. But regardless of preparations, we are not really quite ready for what would happen. In 1811 and 1812, quakes there actually were felt in New England. Scientists quoted in the AP article now say that a repeat performance of the 1811 and 1812 quakes are possible..

Concerning the report on the USGS now worrying about an active New Madrid fault line, Holly Deyo noted on Standeyo.com:


 ”This is a 180º turnaround from what USGS scientists stated a decade ago. They said then the New Madrid quake zone was ‘dead’ – no danger. Maybe this explains why FEMA has totally geared up their preps in and around the entire Midwest over the last 2 years.” ..

Yesterday the my other site the HORROR REPORT and this website alerted readers to what it described as 'signs'.. It was of peace doves being let loose by Pope Francis and other birds attacking them. I know, I know.. tin foil hat time. But..Even weirder, and something I did not see until today, not only did a large seagull attack but so did a large black crow.. 


Now I see SIGNS where I didn’t yesterday..

Funny enough, all this bird symbolism with Pope Francis made me think back to 2005, shortly before Pope John Paul II died.. he was visited at the balcony of St. Peter’s Square by his own birds, at that time a peace dove.. And now, almost ten years later, peace doves are being attacked in Rome by black crows.. 

See the signs?

Government scientists are deliberately giving dozens of volunteers the flu by squirting the live virus straight up their noses

The Associated Press reports on the story as though it should be read as the last news bit on a 11pm local news, after weather and sports.. A fun little tale about the government testing 100 Americans over the next year to see just what happens when the flu is sent directly into their bodies..


What I wonder, though, is the darker side of this … How many times are experiments done on Americans without knowledge?  Sure, I have my tin foil hat appropriately adjusted. But when I see a story like this drop, I always question is they are trying to get something like this more into the mainstream for some reason

The AP:

VATICAN CITY (AP) — Two white doves that were released by children standing alongside Pope Francis as a peace gesture have been attacked by other birds.

As tens of thousands of people watched in St. Peter’s Square on Sunday, a seagull and a large black crow swept down on the doves right after they were set free from an open window of the Apostolic Palace.

One dove lost some feathers as it broke free from the gull. But the crow pecked repeatedly at the other dove.

It was not clear what happened to the doves as they flew off.

This is an image of workers shoveling the MetLife stadium in East Rutherford New Jersey. It ran in a DAILY MAIL story about how the United States is facing such ungodly cold and snow that even the SUPERBOWL may postponed!


That sounds awfully scary. 


What would scare me would be to know you have to shovel an entire stadium even time it snows—and may it look as pretty as possible for an open air Superbowl. Who decided that again….? 


If it snows, unless Chris Christie decides to make a snow cone, chances are it’s going to be messy.


I did a long range forecast look on Accuweather for the Superbowl location. At this time, right now, Superbowl Saturday/Sunday calls for cloudy with snow on Saturday and rain and snow on Sunday. Both days 35 degrees. Bearable temperatures by next weekend.. but the mess of a storm  may blanket the game..

Texas Hospital Yet to Make Decision on Brain-Dead Patient


There seem to be a number of these stories lately concerning people who are ‘brain dead.’ This latest one from Texas appears to be especially dreadful in nature. Even  if you’re fully in favor of taking persons like this off of life support, the fact that a pregnancy is involved makes it much more difficult.


We also have not heard much about Jahi McMath’s plight in the past few weeks, even since the family asked for privacy and was allowed to find her care somewhere.. 


These stories are touching and awful. We all hope none of us ever have to personally experience the horrid nature of having a family member filled with life suddenly succumb to a ‘brain dead’ existence. 


Even though science discounts most miracles, they have been known to happen.. So here’s hoping they do ..

I am enjoying my .15 seconds of fame..


The other night during the premiere of BROAD CITY on the Comedy Channel, my website was visible for a brief millisecond. It occurs a few minutes into the episode IT’S A WONDERFUL WORLD, where the main star flips from her screen saver of Lil Wayne to the HORRORREPORT.COM, my other website..


I was contacted some time ago by the producers of BROAD CITY, and they asked permission to use the site. I did not hesitate.. I was honored. And now my waiting has come to fruition. 


The coolest part of all: Amy Poehler is the executive producer of BROAD CITY… does she read the horror happenings and paranormal reports from around the world on the HORROR REPORT?


As for the show itself, it has been accepted by critics and refreshing and funny. It was called a winner for Comedy Central.. 


So cheers to the first episode of BROAD CITY! And thanks for the recognition. Hopefully Amy, if you’re reading, you’re enjoying the HORROR REPORT every day..

Great headline today Drudge.

A boy named Francis

Clyde Lewis asked an interesting and thought provoking question on his radio program, Ground Zero, last night.

By now you may have heard about the nun who gave birth. She was rushed to the hospital with stomach pains, and a bit later was giving birth to a boy that she named Francis.. The nun, who has not been named in any media, plans on keeping the child.  All involved with the story seem shocked that she had a child..

Named Francis.

While many have laughed and scoffed at the notion that a woman would not know she was pregnant, consider this, as Clyde Lewis spoke about last night: In recent years, there have been at least 45 self-reported sexless pregnancies. The HUFFINGTON POST, however, does mention that there are pitfalls in ‘self reported’ information.. Can these virgin birth reports truly be trusted when people, themselves, are claiming them?
While the reports may indicate shame or the result of an ultra religious background, it highlights the possibilities of Parthenogenesis—a medical term for asexual reproduction.  There have been no valid claims of human beings experiencing asexual reproduction, as a matter of fact, a study proved a South Korean woman claiming it to have been a fraud in 2007.

But what Clyde Lewis was trying to illustrate, more than anything, is the fierce backlash that this nun has experienced online in comparison to Jesus Christ. After all, religious people have been the first to line up and call the nun a whore, slut, and any other derogatory term to describe women who aren’t chaste. But at the same time, those Christians would line up at Sunday mass each week and worship the notion that Mary had a virgin birth that led the world have a savior, Jesus Christ.

Maybe Mary was the true first and last human who experienced parthenogenesis? Or maybe something was lost in translation and ‘virgin’ was really maiden.  Christian Doctrine even says that Mary was the perpetual virgin, remaining one even after having Jesus (and probably other children, too) .. The feast of the Immaculate Conception of Mary is not about Jesus, but about Mary’s own mother. Christian belief holds the notion that Mary’s mother’s womb was clean of original sin, thus allowing Mary to be born a perpetual virgin and never having to have ‘relations with a man’ to conceive. While there may be other religions besides Catholicism that hold some sort of belief on Mary, the main title given to her is Virgin. It relates to long held beliefs that sex was unclean and that women should not enjoy it..

Fast forward to now.. a nun claiming a virgin birth—perhaps a miracle—and naming the child Francis after the Pope. How strange.. how weird. How miraculous?

The first thing I thought of when I heard the story of the nun was the movie with Demi Moore the SEVENTH SIGN. It didn’t take long for me to also recall that a famed horror movie icon, Freddy Krueger, was born from a nun.. In the story of Fred, Amanda Krueger, his mom, devoted her to life to God as a nun.. Also Robert Englund played Freddy in NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET 5, which was named the Dream Child.

We celebrate miracles from bible times. We still hold up traditions from 2000 years ago. We worship Jesus without hard evidence, but ignore Horus. And many still have a concept that Mary did not have sex to get impregnated. But we condemn a nun who claims the same…

I have a Christian friend who literally believes the Bible—yes, she even believes that the earth is 6,000 or so years old and that dinosaurs never lived after the great Noah flood. I asked her about Mary’s virginity.. I told her my theory, that the only way in my head a virgin birth made sense, was if an alien impregnated Mary with artificial sperm. And that Jesus was an alien. I even spiced it up and said that the great flood happened on Mars and Noah flew a space ship to earth. She paused at that one. And then scoffed.

It comes down to faith. I have faith. I believe God is a combination of math, electricity, and energy.
As far as a virgin birth? I believe anything can be possible but perhaps not probable.
But condemning a nun for claiming it but worshiping a woman from ages ago for being credited with it? That part is where I find people to get a little.. well.. hypocritical.

Wheelchair stolen from in front of veteran's Coal Township home

Life in the fast lane..

There are times when God makes himself quite evident. This morning, as the sun began shining over the mountain near my home base, I flipped on the TEE VEE only to discover that Justin Bieber was arrested for drag racing—and he failed a DUI test.


NBC NEWS 6 in South Florida has some information on their channel.. He was in a rented Lamborghini when it all went down. Accroding to reports, the Beebs was spotted in different places around Miami in the past few days.. 


But as things go, and as fate evolves, life grows darker for the manchild. He now finds himself in custody..


Will he still keep up the act? Will he have that deranged tough boy accent? Will he walk hunched over like an ape? Will he laugh, and smile, and wink at the camera as his mug shot is snapped? Or will he became Justin Bieber minus the fame and fortune? Will he snap into the reality that once was pre-stardom? Will he just be Justin? 


I think too much programming and self induced mind control has occurred him ever to just be a kid named Justin again. He’s Bieber. With a fever.


In jail.
