I am doubtful that they found flight 370 wreckage
For 10 days now, we’ve been told that the plane veered to the left and continued that way, some reports even say for up to four hours, at least one rumor had it that the plane flew over top of a remote island..
But now they find so-called wreckage off the coast of Australia? They are not confirming anything yet, but I would be very hesitant to say that this is flight 370 for the fact that it goes against all of the other storylines about what may have happened to this flight..
Unless all the of those other storylines were dead wrong
This from CNN
The Australian maritime agency warned the images may not be related to the aircraft, but one aviation analyst said Australian Prime Minister Tony Abbott likely would not have announced the discovery to the the House of Representatives in Canberra without being reasonably sure of their find.
“There have been so many false leads and so many starts and changes and then backtracking in the investigation,” said Mary Schiavo, a CNN aviation analyst and former inspector general for the U.S. Department of Transportation. “He wouldn’t have come forward and said if they weren’t fairly certain.”
But officials cautioned that there were no guarantees that the objects now being investigated would prove to be from the missing plane.
This could be the breakthrough in the case of the missing Malaysian flight 370.. Large parts are being found off the waters near Australia..
Nothing confirmed yet, officials hesitant.. But this may be the missing flight ..

Weathermen "baffled" by mystery plume near 1945 atomic bomb test site
Conspiracy theorists have speculated that the plume-like cloud, which appears out of nowhere, could have been kicked up by the explosion from an unreported weapons test.
I am really getting sick of this term ‘conspiracy theorists.’ Really sick of it.
Seriously, a plume cloud appears out of no where near the site of past atomic bomb tests.. logic, people! Logic. Instead, the media calls people with logic ‘conspiracy theorists.’

This is the content of a message sent to me tonight from a friend who glanced at my DAILY DOODLE today. I suppose there was some phallic imagery there.. In the eye of the beholder, perhaps..
Why is Generation Y having less sex?
I blame technology and mobile porn.. and bad economies, too. This may be a laughable story to you.. but depopulation seems to be happening all without the help of eugenics.
Why is Generation Y having less sex?
Tin foil hats need to be adjusted. Sort of.
While the HIV issue may be untrue, let’s remember some facts about the past: The United States government injected people with plutonium.
The United States injected African Americans with syphilis..
So why is TIME magazine laughing at something—though perhaps untrue—that could be a logical conclusion given other famed injections from the past?
I'm coining a new term: Bankercide.
There seems to be so many suicides of bankers this year, a new word should be created..
It appears to be the 12th *or more?* this year..
Nonetheless, a 28-year-old banker died after leaping off of a building—a way bankercide seems to be taking place. The New York POST reports,
Kenneth Bellando, who worked at Levy Capital since January, was found dead on the sidewalk outside his East Side building on March 12 after allegedly jumping from the sixth-story roof, sources said.
Bellando, a former investment bank analyst at JPMorgan, is the son of John Bellando, chief operating officer and chief financial officer at Condé Nast. His brother, John, a top chief investment officer with JPMorgan, works on risk exposure valuations.
Several John Bellando emails were cited during testimony at the Senate Finance Committee’s inquiry into the bank’s losses during the infamous London Whale trade fiasco.
Very interesting.
It’s the type of stuff that makes you ponder if a nefarious back story is taking place.. are things coming? Are bad days upon us? Is financial collapse ready? Or are bankers just .. going overboard?
Bankercide. You heard it here first.

Numb to the victims
Death happens every day.. mass death occurs. But we should be used to it or accept it—however do accept it often.
I am struck by the reaction of the world and media to the missing flight 370. We are facing the possibility that the 239 passengers and crew faced an overwhelmingly horrific death—the way they expired may be viewed different depending on which viewpoint you have as far as what happened to the flight itself. But by this point, it would seem obvious that there’s no life from within that plane.
And we are numb to it.
Numb in the sense that we aren’t talking about the lives aboard.. we aren’t speaking of the beautiful children who faced an awful early departure from this realm.. we aren’t talking about the wives and husbands, moms and dads, employees and employers.. The stories of all 239 people have seemingly vanished as much as their flight itself. Gone for good into the memory hole.. Never to be spoken about again.
A mass death occurred in some way, most likely..But their lives don’t seem to matter. They’re just the back story to the Malaysian mystery.
The people who seem to be suffering the most are the families of the missing.. There was a news conference held in Kuala Lumpur with updates about what we know on the missing plane—as far as the news conference, think of it like this: we don’t know a thing and anything you’ve known is wrong. But during the event, families of the missing became frustrated and emotional, screaming out in tears and anger. They were also angry at the response or lack thereof from governmental bodies. As a result, they were swept away as the media watched, families who are going through agony and misery simply dragged away from the news conference in front of reporters.. Even the BBC reported that a reporter from their agency was pushed away from family members carrying banners critical of the government. The BBC reporter, Jonah Fisher, faced a wall of police as he tried to talk to the wailing wall of people..
My point, if any, is that the story of where the plane is and how it went missing is extremely important. And the flight simulator with its programmed routes, along with the sudden movement of Flight 370 itself, are big issues. But the heart of the story are the lives aboard. If a flight carrying no one vanished they story wouldn’t matter nearly as much. But a flight carrying so many lives, so many stories, and so many souls, makes this matter much more. But at the same time the media is hardly talking about those lives, and really not permitted to speak to the families of the missing.
There seems to be something rotten in Malaysia. Either the government is hiding something or has simply dropped the ball so hard that the time frame to find the plane is now dwindling to the point of no return.
I am struck by how little attention is being paid to the lives aboard this flight. The images of the children of the disappeared was striking when I saw them the other day. But they are not just becoming forgotten.. missing plane parts are more important that body parts.
As the families drift into darkness, rushed away from reporters snapping photos, ask yourself this: Are we just accepting of mass murder and mass death? Are we even phased by it anymore? Is it just a side story on the big story?
War makes news only because of the men who plan war. The victims, often children birthed into a world of heartbreak, are forgotten. Collateral damage. We say. We think.
But what do we really think, deep down?
Are you a bystander in life, just watching mass death from a distance? Did you lose your connection to humanity, thinking what happens “there” will not affect here? What happens to “them” is less important than “us”? Ask yourself that..?

A painful sugarfree stomach
I am a little bit of it Altoids addict, I pop them like candy. Well I guess they are candy, but they are curiously strong candies that I seem to have no version eating one after the other the entire tin cans gone.
So that is why my wife figured it would be good to buy me the many candies as opposed to the regular size, something to help cut down my addiction..
Last night I ate an entire small can of Altoids.. they tasted a little bit different they still have the kick that I needed.
And it made my stomach turn to rot.
I could not believe the pains I having and the gastrointestinal issues only five minutes after eating my last one..
That’s when I did my due diligence, looked at the can, and realized that the mini candies are sugarfree, replacing that sugar and corn syrup goodness with dangerous aspartame..
I swore off fake sugar and artificial sweeteners years ago, and every time I have anything that contains aspartame I get immediate headaches and stomach pains. Last night I cursed Donald Rumsfeld as I tried to fall asleep, knowing that the deal worked out back last century led to this rat poison being in my body..
This morning I stopped at my local convenience store and bought a large box of Altoids.. they have sugar and I’m grateful for that.

4.4 earthquake near L.A. could be 'foreshock' for bigger shake
The magnitude 4.4 earthquake that struck near Westwood is the most significant shake in Southern California since a 5.5 earthquake hit Chino Hills in 2008, a U.S. Geological Survey seismologist told reporters at a news conference Monday morning.
Chilling..
What’s next..

Christian Aliens among us
I get a feeling that if alien life is going to be announced, it will be coming from religious leaders before the government. That way it would sink in better with people if they heard it from God-like men as opposed to devil-like whores..
And in that regard: The Vatican Observatory is co-hosting a conference in Arizona this week on the search for life beyond the solar system.. I always think back to the priest who said he’d love to baptize an alien.. Maybe the Vatican knows disclosure will lead to a surge in numbers. But what will the aliens donate in the weekly collection basket?
The Pacific ‘ring of fire’ has seemingly awakened over the past several weeks, producing large earthquakes in a number of locations.
This morning, things were no different; Southern California experienced a relatively substantial shake at 6:30am PDT.. The quake registered at 4.7 but was downgraded to 4.4. ..
While no significant damage has yet been reported, vehicles were rocked back and forth in the early morning commute hours..
CBS’s local affiliate said that they felt an intense rocking back and forth during the early morning quake. Live during the newcast, the entire set of the news program starting shaking as the helpless broadcasters were shocked during the live footage.. reports indicate that the quake lasted for several seconds, as least..
Since the initial large rattle, further aftershocks have occurred.. LA QUAKE BOT, a programmed Twitter account, gives the latest information on the aftershocks in real time..
FUK-ED
There’s been a tremendous amount of conspiracy conjecture relating to Fukushima since the nightmare began March 2011.. but this article posted at the New York TIMES is hair-raising.. Apparently Japan’s government is trying to stop reporting of facts, such as this: Radioactive cesium 137 in the surface water of the Pacific Ocean COULD BE 10,000 times as high as contamination from Chernobyl. Let that, and other facts from the article, sink in a bit..
Last night I posted something that has been getting re-posted for a long time on my personal Facebook page: It was from CRACKED, and it was the ‘8 insulting ways people act ‘Irish’ on St. Patrick’s Day’.. What sort of astounded me was the reaction it got from someone.. She was hardcore angry over the content. She is Irish, I am just about 50% if you would measure me, so I offered up the article because a friend of mine did and I found it interesting…
But her ferocious outrage and indignation with the article was obvious from her lengthy post about the author .. corned beef.. and cabbage. Perhaps I should have linked up this article by Seamus McKiernan on the HUFFINGTON POST. He has dual citizenship, here in the United States and also in Ireland. He is not celebrating St. Patrick’s Day because he fears that the events occurring at local watering holes and parades across the US of A have become a ‘cartoonish’ farce.. He also pointed out that St. Patrick’s colors were blue, not green.. and that the good Irish saint may not have even been Irish!
The HUFFINGTON POST isn’t done yet.. another blogger, Bill Stieger, writes about the American version of drinking the holiday to death.. He says,
"Do you think I exaggerate? Read the messages on the horrific buttons and sweatshirts these revelers wear to degrade the tribe: "10 percent Irish/90 percent beer," or "Member of the official Irish drinking team!" Check out pervy intonations, like "Erin Go Braghless," or "Kiss my Shamrocks," or my favorite of all: "I’m starting a drunken brawl with the first person who stereotypes the Irish." I mean, please!
Can you name another ethnic group so bent on its own self abasement? Imagine any other culture or ethnic group frolicking in costumes and behaving in a manner that perpetuates the stereotypes of bigots. None do it. But Irish Americans insist on acting like the clowns at their own circus.”
Crimea has voted: 95+% of the over 1.2 million people who went to the polls want to be a part of Russia.. people took to the streets to celebrate after the vote, champagne glasses were raised and people kissed under the moonlit skies.. But what now? Well hopefully not this: State TV says Russia could turn the United States into radioactive ash..
The drums are beating.. Russia downs a United States drone, according to a report..
Beating..beating.. North Korea fires 25 missiles into the sea of Japan..
So .. what are Russians doing off the coast of Florida?

Fear the tongue..
Miley Cyrus has been grossing out the people of the planet since autumn 2013. Recently, thanks to her BANGERZ tour, we’ve seen her ride a giant hot dog enter the stage on a massive lizard-like tongue coming from a monumentally frightening image of her face.
But a construction worker involved with making the tongue slide was more than grossed out—he was injured!
He is suing the company that built the tongue..
He is not suing Miley Cyrus however.
Maybe we could talk this worker and Sky Ferreira into doing us a favor and trying to figure out a lawsuit to stop Miley from being Miley.
These are the first images released of the children aboard Flight 370..
Their beautiful faces speak for themselves.
I wish for a world without tragedy and fear for children. Obviously judging from daily news, this planet hasn’t attained any goal of goodness or love.
If a horrible accident occurred on board this plane, it’s assumed that all 239 passengers succumbed to their ill-fated demise quickly. I fear that did not happen.. I especially cringe thinking about the plane experiencing a hijacking gone wrong, or something even worse for the innocent people aboard the flight.
Yes, indeed.. those who tune out of heavy headlines may be the happiest.
I’m not like that. I soak up the news as much as a Sheryl Crow soaks up the sun. And for that, I am typically upset about what some nation or person has done to an innocent child in a dark part of the planet Earth.

David Brenner just lost a battle with cancer.. he is dead tonight at the age of 78.
He died on a Saturday.. I think of all the Saturday nights he entertained throughout the years of his career, to half empty rooms of half drunk people to the audiences of the TONIGHT SHOW with Johnny Carson..
His humor became an inspiration for others such as Jerry Seinfeld and Paul Reiser..
He was a star of the 20th century and a trend setter for years to come..
And he never abandoned his craft.
As FOX news points out in their story tonight on his passing,
Brenner worked steadily through 2013 doing standup. A four-day gig last December included a New Year’s Eve show at a King of Prussia, Pa., casino-resort in which he showcased young comedians.
Hijacked MH370 was last seen flying towards Pakistan OR Indian Ocean

Officials now saying it is 'conclusive' that Flight 370 was hijacked
Seven days after the vanishing act of MH370, we are now seeing reports that the airliner was hijacked by someone with ‘experience’ and that authorities are zeroing in on two possible routes that the flight took.. Malaysia’s Prime Minister Najib said Saturday that this was a ‘deliberate action.’
Najib also said investigators are now trying to trace the airplane across two possible “corridors” — a northern corridor from the border of Kazakhstan and Turkmenistan through to northern Thailand, and a southern corridor from Indonesia to the southern Indian Ocean.
That surprisingly conclusive information comes after days of mystery—searches in vast portions of oceans and spy satellites searching land masses for wreckage. Now the Indian Ocean is in play..
This has been the most bizarre and surreal series of events that I have ever witnessed in connection with a plane crash.. And to call it a plane crash at this is not even accurate. We frankly don’t.. Even if the hijacking story works out, the fact remains: We don’t know where Flight 370 is.

Friday, March 14, 2014
This may seem like a delusional Friday night thought—and with hours of travel today and three days away my mind may be in a bizarre state of mind. But here goes anyway..
As I sat in a very lonely hotel bar room, sipping a club soda and lime (after a beer or two of course) I got into a conversation with someone who slipped into a stupor long before I ended up with my non alcoholic beverage. There was a muted TV playing coverage of the news, that night, that they thought they found wreckage from Flight 370. That turned out to be untrue of course, but during our short bar talk, he told me that he thought aliens abducted the passengers and threw the plane into the ocean.
I laughed at that thought but immediately remembered reading the Langoliers by Stephen King. I also recall, quite well, seeing the made for TV movie starring Baulky from PERFECT STRANGERS. The movie was just awful as far as graphics and acting.. but the concept from King was marvelous: The Langoliers are creatures that eat time. And a red eye flight gets caught up in a time slip .. the passengers have to figure it out. And before you know it, they encounter 20th century computer graphics that eat their time out from under them, and around them.
Interesting concept.
And some have compared the Langoliers to today’s new mystery.
You’d need to suspend logic for a while.. what better time to do it than at a lonely cold bar room in the central part of Pennsylvania. I did.. and I wondered if these passengers were battling time demons in a galaxy close by..
Of course, reality may end up with a tragic result in this matter. A crash site.. or something worse..
The Langoliers would be bad, too. Especially if they are as graphically challenged as the 1995 version of creatures that eat time..

Take this information for what it’s worth:

Meteors and mysteries
Read this 1997 SCIENTIFIC AMERICAN article on what would happen if meteors struck passenger airliners ..
I offer it up to argue the case that this could have been what happened to flight 370—could have.
So far, anyone I spoke of this theory to laughed at me to my face..
I don’t think it’s a tin foil hat concept like others think..
And with the lack of any answers, shouldn’t we consider any possibility ?

A work related conference has forced me to have to travel for two nights to an undesirable location somewhere in Pennsylvania, I’ll keep that location private for the sake of embarrassing the city.
Last night my car had to go into the shop for a smell coming from the tires, it turned out to be all four brakes and rotors. The car was unsafe to drive.
So my wife and I had a chaotic moment of trying to work out things, and we came to a conclusion that I would take her car and she would work her schedule to get mine from the shop.
On my way to the undisclosed location for my conference, the low tire pressure light came on indicating a malfunction in my wife’s Jeep.
An hour later, a Fornea half-inch nail was taken from the tire, it was patched, and I was on my merry way to 60 hours of boredom.
I thought to myself, God is just like George Carlin. But then I remember the George Carlin didn’t believe in God, making my comparison incorrect.
But I thought to myself, for all the chaos and heartache vehicles cause, especially when you rely on them to get you somewhere that you’re mandated to go, it’s like God has a sick and twisted mentality and tries to mess with us. Or if you look at the glass half full concept, the car breaks down before you drive it to your location thus saving you much more misery and potentially dangerous suffering if something dramatic happened to the car while you try.
And that is the story of my morning glory.

Missing Jet Search Now Covers Area Almost the Size of Indiana
This is weird.
Clyde Lewis last night presented the topic of the missing airliner on his radio program. He is open to the possibility of a near earth object slamming and destroying the jet. He even has a pilot call him last night telling him how many more pilots are seeing meteors high in the sky near flight paths.
It is interesting that no major media source offers up this idea as a possibility .. Instead everyone jumped on the terrorism angle and played up the Iranians who boarded ..
Maybe we need to change our mentality .. If you haven’t noticed lately, there’s been a ton more fireballs in the sky and meteors coming within the distance of the earth to the moon..
As this jet continues to be missing.
I wonder too, did anyone geotrack to supposed still working cell phones yet?

Mystery Malaysia flight may have been hundreds of miles off course
Missing Malaysia Airlines flight way off course, not sending ID code when it vanished, Malaysian Air Force official tells CNN
And with that, we appear to be heading back towards the terrorism angle again..
CNN goes on to report this in its latest dispatch:
If correct, these are ominous signs that could call into question whether someone in the cockpit might have deliberately steered the plane away from its intended destination, a former U.S. aviation investigator said.
"This kind of deviation in course is simply inexplicable," said Paul Goelz, former managing director of the National Transportation Safety Board.
However, veteran pilot Kit Darby, president of Aviation Information Resources, told CNN’s Wolf Blitzer that mechanical problems could still explain everything: A power failure would have turned off the main transponder and its backup, and the plane could have flown for more than an hour, he said.
According to the Malaysian Air Force official, who declined to be named because he is not authorized to speak to the media, the plane’s transponder apparently stopped working at about the time flight controllers lost contact with it, near the coast of Vietnam.

If you’ve ever driven to the Bloomsburg fair in Pennsylvania, you may know where this photo was taken. It is from 1901—long before a highway was in the location that a train was then..

In our modern times, America is filled with dilapidated structures, broken down bridges, and pothole infested highways. Trains are dead.. Malls are dying. The nation is shifting into a lower standard of living. But at one time this nation was thriving.. But here’s some images of the past. It wasn’t great for all, and sometimes for no one.. But these photos of yesterday showcase perfectly that the nation was in its youth and alive with energy and vibrancy. ..

Frack me..
Lots of earthquakes are rattling earth just in time for the anniversary of the big Japan quake.. in just the past day a strong 6.9 hit Northern California, a 5.8 rattled Southern Mexico
..and this: Three earthquakes shook Ohio and were felt in Pennsylvania Monday.. .. Some in Ohio called 911 fearing that the earthquake was actually an intruder in their homes.. Marcellus Shale territory .. One result of the earthquakes: Ohio has halted gas drilling near Youngstown. Not that there’s any connection…………….

Someone's calling.. and no one answers
I am perplexed .. so many rumors abound about Flight 370. But the weirdest one of all: People are apparently calling the cell phones of the passengers from the apparently doomed plane. The phones are ringing.. no one is answering..
Why can’t we get a geo location on these before they go dead? The NSA can find anyone, right?
None of this makes any sense..
Out with the old
It’s dinosaur week at my son’s day care this week..
At my job, it’s dinosaur week every week..

Reuters: Malaysia plane probe narrows on mid-air disintegration - source
KUALA LUMPUR (Reuters) - Officials investigating the disappearance of a Malaysian airliner with 239 people on board are narrowing the focus of their inquiries on the possibility that it disintegrated mid-flight
That would explain a few things—such as the lack of any contact informing control that there were problems with flight MH370..
This would also account for the fact that the plane appears to have gone missing..
The unnamed source told Reuters that it appears the plane disintegrated at around 35,000 feet.
A few scenarios now will be explored, surely.. such as a mechanical issue.. terrorism. Or try this: A meteor. Don’t laugh.
This morning, Clyde Lewis posted an old link of someone claiming that flight 800 was a victim of a meteor. Lately we’ve had quite a few meteors and near-earth asteroids.. What if…?
At this point anything is possible.
Another angle being investigated: Interpol probing MORE suspect passports from the missing flight..

Bus-sized asteroid third to miss hitting Earth in 48 hours
Keep this in mind Asteroid 2014 EC flew by Earth Wednesday. It was only discovered Tuesday—which would have given this planet little to no chance to do anything at all about it if it was going to hit.
I cannot understand this.. Asteroids seem to be the biggest story that should be focused on by any politician running for office. If a big one hit, it would have a massive impact without regard to national origin, religion, color, or creed.
But instead, stories of asteroids—and all of science—are regulated to the last bit on the local news. Right after sports. A “fun little story to end the night” accompanied by a joke about how the Earth had a ‘close shave’ .. I hate the term close shave.
How about this: News casters should lose the ‘close shave’ analogy and instead report it this way: “The world almost had a major city obliterated today” or “a world coastline almost was destroyed by a tsunami wave today.” Maybe that will get the attention necessary for this to matter.
Three in one week, and one discovered the day before the potential hit.
That’s not good..

There is precedent for a jetliner going missing. But it's still weird.
How can a Boeing 777-200ER passenger jet go missing for more than a day? Turns out, it’s not so easy.
Interesting story..
This is a very troubling situation—and mysterious. A plane vanishing from radar and now, with stolen passports becoming an issue, the question is being asked: Accident or purposeful?
At one point, this whole story reminded me of the plot of LOST.
Albeit the story may have more of a closure than the show LOST did, it still remains bizarre that a plane could vanish from site..
There are oil slicks being studied—but oil without wreckage. Odd again.
Still watching as the story evolves.. But so far it’s been chilling.
