NIGHTCLUB NIGHTMARE IN BRAZIL

Wow..
This is an intense storm right now over the Atlantic waters. It looks like a hurricane .. its pressure is bottoming out..
This is how the NOAA predicts it:

The latest OPC 48 hour Atlantic Surface forecast chart (top left), valid 00Z January 26, continues to show an expected hurricane force low pressure system in the central North Atlantic. The forecasted central pressure is 939mb with winds of 80 knots, deepening to 928mb by 72 hours! The corresponding OPC 48 hour Atlantic Wind Wave forecast chart (bottom right) is indicating potential significant wave heights of 10.5 meters (34 feet)!

Here is a live shot of water vapor in the North Atlantic

And think about this: Accuweather reports

By today, the WaveWatch forecast model was predicting waves over 42 feet (above), with 36-foot waves near shore in Ireland and the United Kingdom later this week! While there aren’t any buoys in the middle of the ocean where the storm was the strongest, the nearestNDBC buoy off the Ireland coast reported 42-foot waves overnight, while another buoy reported pressure as low as 28.45 inches, the pressure you’d typically see in a Category 4 Hurricane. Winds have also gusted over 40 knots.

I know the Weather Channel decided to name snowstorms on the North American landscape this year. Perhaps they should have thought about mid-winter North Atlantic superstorms!

Yes indeed, this is looking like a superstorm indeed..

A potentially damaging day is coming to the UK Monday.

Yep.
For real.

The latest news coming out about the Kiss Nightclub in Santa Maria: A fire official says the club was 1,000 people over capacity and “according to the information we have, the security guards kept people from leaving the building…

Speaking to local newspaper Diario de Santa Maria, she said the fire had begun after a member of one of the bands lit a flare (others said a firework) about 10 minutes into the show, setting fire to part of the stage.

According to her, the fire took hold of the club in less than three minutes.

“The band tried to put out the fire with water, but they didn’t manage to,” she said.

“After this, they tried with a fire extinguisher. It was all really quick.”

Meanwhile the death toll continues to climb…

Military choppers stalk the night sky over downtown Miami

This was a joint military and police training exercise to prepare for ‘overseas drills’ and make sure equipment is in check..

But…is there a need to have sounds of the copters opening fire on citizens below? at 1:30 second, ‘blank rounds of gunfire’ were shot from the helicopters.

It’s only just a drill, of course…..

A YouTube user took to the net to show his taped footage from the Obama Inauguration this past week. It seems to show…….something….near the Washington Monument. The YouTube user shows it twice asking aloud, “What is that?”

Here is the video. Judge for yourself.
What is it?
Helicopter? Lens flare?
Craft from another world?
A reptilian craft coming to deliver flies to attack President Obama?

Just what, in the world or out of it, is that?

I’d say lens flare.
But it’s sure fun to think it’s not.

A few weeks ago, CNN’s Anderson Cooper took to the airwaves during his show 360 to battle online rumors and conspiracy theories surrounding the tragic Sandy Hook shooting. Cooper lamented the freedom the internet gives to hoaxes and rumor-mongering.. he blasted the video that has received millions of hits, the video which blends raw footage and rumor together to create questions on the official narrative of the shooting.

It can be argued, though, that media botched up the reporting on this story from the beginning. They took false leads and broadcast them to the world.. they reported the wrong suspect .. they said people died who did not. It all began with reporters trying to get a story too fast..

And now this: Rumors online of what may have actually happened that day.

Add to it a new video, one which will no doubt create more websites and videos afterwards–and maybe another response from Anderson Cooper. After all, this video involves Anderson himself.

As you can see, it appears to show Anderson Cooper’s nose vanish for a split second, causing some to ask if they were in front of a green screen and if the person involved with the interview was just acting..

Some comments have tried to debunk the video.. others say Anderson Cooper’s nose was up another orifice on his body.. one YouTube user asked this, however:

I heard it could be a YouTube video compression problem?
Can anyone verify this ?

Perhaps that is the best theory as to why Cooper’s nose seems to vanish in midsentence. That or a green screen was used and CNN tried to act like they were actually on location in Newtown..

Regardless of how it happened, or what even did happen, it won’t matter now. The rumor is out there.. this will just be added to the next conspiracy video on Sandy Hook.

We’ll see if Mr. Cooper responds directly. There may, as the compression of the YouTube video theory has it, a very logical explanation.

Sometimes nothing you see is true. Even fiction.
