You ask, I answer

Anonymous asked: DO YOU KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT THE PSU EBOLA CASES?

I suppose an ‘all caps’ message is necessary when asking about the Penn State Ebola case. I am aware of it.. As of now, there are no cases to report.. But there are 80 Penn State students being monitored, as reported in this Lancaster PA newspaper.. the latest is that no signs of Ebola are present. Good news.

I actually was watching this since mid-September, that was the time frame when the original story was posted about the 80 students.

My only criticism on the story is this: Why would 80 students take part in an type of trip to Africa at this time? I understand there may be educational purposes and learning experiences, but when they enter the hot zone of the deadliest disease on the planet, I question the intelligence of any university.. Or that’s just me.

In the mean time, at least at Penn State, Captain Tripps does not exist.

BAD MOON RISING. WELCOME TO YOUR MONDAY: EBOLA, FEAR PORN, AND BLACK EYED BAR GOERS WHO JUST WANT A DRINK. ALL IN A DAY IN THE LIFE OF A SCARY WORLD

Another day. Another dollar. A dollar short..
Welcome to your Monday..

I woke up early to peruse headlines in an attempt to find the best and the worst of the world.. Here are the findings, in nutshells and links. Read them and weep..

The family of the patient in Dallas infected with Ebola said that they are being ostracized by the Liberian community.Read more on that here.. They are coping with isolation.. But the part of the entire Ebola story that confuses me: The first person diagnosed with Ebola in the United States was fighting for his life at a Dallas hospital on Sunday and appeared not to be receiving any of the experimental medicines for the virus, the director of the U.S… They say the drug is ‘all gone.’ They say that it will not be coming.. So this patient fights for his life..
I wonder if the NBC news photographer will get the same no drug treatment..?

Speaking of the NBC freelancer: Ashoka Mukpo — who contracted it while covering the outbreak’s carnage — was on his way for treatment in isolation at Nebraska Medical Center..

And here is some information for your conspiratorial brain to ponder: There are rumors online, which I will not link at this time, that Thomas A. Duncan has been dead for days.. The rumor goes: they cannot figure out what to do with his body at this time and are awaiting specialists to arrive to take it, for fear that a “CONTAGION” may happen.. Discern this information appropriately..

When reporters are caught on open MICs: CBS’s White House correspondent Major Garrett is caught saying “we’re screwed” on live MIC after an Ebola briefing on Ocotber 3.. I think it was funny.. Gallow’s humor–and hell, journalists are people, too.. let’s be real, we are all slightly concerned that “we’re screwed” in some shape or form..

While Ebola decides it if wants to wipe out the world’s population, there are other diseases to worry about in the short term.. Namely: This scary bug that is infecting children across the United States–and it has been for about a year, I even recall Alex Jones talking about deaths in his family as a result of this respiratory bug at the end of 2013 on Coast to Coast AM with George Noory.. The AP has a report on the wave of sickness–and death.. There’s some important facts in there concerning the background on the 1962-born sickness and the children it primarily infects. Parents should be aware of this.. I know, as a parent, I am. I am also slightly worried about mutation.. I have been told countless times that this bug is not going to mutate, but folks:B Bugs do what they want.. We certainly don’t have much luck at even stopping the common cold, let alone this rare disease that it now killing some and making others get polio–though they don’t want to call it that.. Namely because the children were perfectly vaccinated against polio.. Be aware of this one, it actually worries me more than Ebola. At this point.

Obama sending 4000 troops to Ebola ravaged regions in Africa..

Someone does say, though, that Ebola scares him: The man who discovered it. Peter Piot found it in 1976. Now he says “I fear an unimaginable tragedy”..

First of all, I say this: I really don’t believe the story that these goats have a human head. I am not seeing the likeness to a person. But the allegation is a farmer had sex with his goat, and this is the offspring it produced.. Again: Discern yourself..

25-year-old woman who was in the ‘female brigade’ of ISIS tells of why she left the group: She became disillusioned by the group’s brutality…

A powerful typhoon that washed four American airmen in Okinawa out to sea slammed central Japan on Monday, forcing the cancelation of more than 600 flights. Phanfone had earlier been downgraded from a super-typhoon to a Category One shadow of its former self but Japan’s 18th typhoon of the season still packed a punch..

Kurds: US air strikes are not working..

Jumpin’ Joe said too much! On Sunday Vice President Joe Biden called Prince Mohamed bin Zayed, crown prince of Abu Dhabi, and apologized for telling the truth.. In a speech, he admitted U.S., Israel, Britain, Gulf Emirates, Jordan and Turkey responsible for ISIS.. And afterwards, hellfire hit the fan in D.C. ..

While now we are told that Biden is sorry for suggesting that our allies aided ISIS, I was briefly happy that someone finally told the truth. Surely, now he is silenced, but let’s step back and recall some history: Biden is right. Very right. He actually did not go far enough. In this instance, as he so famously does, he went off script and started speaking from his heart. If only he’d keep saying the truth, it may be enough to win an election. Nah… instead, he needs to grovel back to our allies to say sorry for speaking a little bit of reality in a foreign policy world of fiction.

Try to comprehend this one without morning coffee: A newly discovered particle is both matter and antimatter at the same time. Italian physicist Ettore Majorana predicted in 1937 that a particle could have its own equivalent of antimatter.. the new Majorana particle proves that assertion. IN theory.

You say potato. I say oh my God. Medical staff in the central Colombian town of Honda have discovered a potato growing inside a patient’s vagina, in an ill-fated attempt to prevent unwanted pregnancy…

This is Sharon Piper.. and she sees dead people. Actually she saw black-eyed ghosts’ in a bar she works at in the UK.. Her story is certainly chilling, especially for this time of year.. She said that black-eyed men actualyl walked into the bar she worked at and asked for a drink.. other patrons saw them too, and the room went cold and was speechless. Piper concluded her story, which you could read in full here, saying, “But in the end they just disappeared with the drinks – I have no idea where they went.”.. While the story sounds well and good, the comments section on the story are more interesting.. Namely this one: “Having personally lived in the pub for nearly 20 years , I can honestly say I have never seen this lady nor did she work for us. The pub was running until 18 months ago when we left for pastures new . none of my family ever saw a ghost !!!!. the pub was not burnt down there was a small fire in an outdoor shed ! how old is this ladies story ?” Again, with anything presented here today, discern appropriately.

Was a joke roast of Joan Rivers done too soon on SNL? The part I noticed is how often Sarah Silverman flubbed her lines during the skit.. Perhaps even she was nervous that the jokes were being offered up to audiences much too soon after the comedy queen’s death.. though when I saw it, the first thing I thought: Joan Rivers would have loved this.. But maybe Steve Jobs’ would not have.

Finally at this moment, a little perspective: It’s not the things that fear which can kill us, it’s the fear of them.. Here is a good article from FARM WARS on our fear porn society..
So don’t be afraid of the things you can’t see..but be watchful of all of those that are in plain sight.
Good luck today.. As always, stay tuned for more udpates. The world increasingly is a scary place.

EBOLA DRUG ‘GONE;’ AMERICAN PATIENT FIGHTING FOR HIS LIFE

The first person diagnosed with Ebola in the United States was fighting for his life at a Dallas hospital on Sunday and appeared not to be receiving any of the experimental medicines for the virus, the director of the U.S.

 

The drug is ‘all gone,’ they say.. and nothing coming any time soon.

So as a result of the lack of medicine, our now famous American Ebola patient is fighting for his life tonight..

STRONG WEEKEND FOR ‘ANNABELLE’ AND ‘GONE GIRL’

UPDATED

Horror flick Annabelle is going to do what others couldn’t this year: Have a strong debut, something strong for a horror flick in 2014.. but in a surprise, Gone Girl will be stronger ..

Good news for Annabelle: the film will make more than $37.2 mil strong. The movie had a strong Friday night, boosted by younger crowds and social media and YouTube trailers that were shared heavily among horror fans..

But Gone Girl will finish near $38, something that may have been helped by strong online reviews and praise..

The weekend race for the top spot ended up close. Horror was strong with ANNABELLE, and those I spoke to who saw the movie said there was a positive movie theater experience with the film..

A young crowd went to see horror Friday.. The grownups went on Saturday. Social media helped both movies … and Sunday looked just as strong both them …

The rebirth of movies!?
No.. maybe just a fluke.
Times are getting colder.. warm popcorn and closely sitting next to your date in a theater are looking better in October..

Incidentally, the HORROR REPORT predicted $36 mil on Friday–very close to the final numbers that the movie will have this weekend..

UFOS over the West

COLORADO: Breckenridge Police say they are investigating reports of three “shiny” objects in the sky Friday morning. “NORAD is not tracking any anomalies in that location. We are investigating,” said Army Major Beth Smith, NORAD spokesperson. »

This may not be something for the police, some would argue. But it certainly could be.. if this was some sort of illegal drone activity taking place, then it makes sense for them to take part actively. There is more from the Colorado news report:

Police have called the FAA. The FAA says they have not had any calls from the public regarding the sighting.

Witnesses say the objects would sometimes form triangles or straight lines across the horizon.

9NEWS reporter Matt Renoux said he doesn’t believe the objects were drones or weather balloons, because the objects appeared stationary for as long as 15 minutes at times.

“They would just sit there… without moving an inch on our viewscreen in the camera,” Renoux said during a 5 p.m. live report.

After about 15 minutes, a flash of light would appear and the “objects would take off across the mountain ridge,” Renoux said.

A Utah television station reported Thursday about a similar incident happening in the Salt Lake City area.

It does sound quite similar to the Utah cases, which I wrote about earlier after a reader prompted me to look into things more closely. 

If you start dreaming of Mother Abigail, all bets are off

UK TELEGRAPH: Ebola ‘could become airborne’: United Nations warns of ‘nightmare scenario’ as virus spreads to the US .. MORE: Anthony Banbury, chief of the UN’s Ebola mission, says there is a chance the deadly virus could mutate to become infectious through the air »

This is the big fear of mine, and has been so.

Lets take a trip…back in time.

The year was 2012. There was research in Canada on Ebola.. the story goes like this,according to a HEALTHMAP.COM article posted at the time:

When news broke that the Ebola virus had resurfaced in Uganda, investigators in Canada were making headlines of their own with research indicating the deadly virus may spread between species, through the air.

The team, comprised of researchers from the National Centre for Foreign Animal Disease, the University of Manitoba, and the Public Health Agency of Canada, observed transmission of Ebola from pigs to monkeys. They first inoculated a number of piglets with the Zaire strain of the Ebola virus. Ebola-Zaire is the deadliest strain, with mortality rates up to 90 percent. The piglets were then placed in a room with four cynomolgus macaques, a species of monkey commonly used in laboratories. The animals were separated by wire cages to prevent direct contact between the species.

Within a few days, the inoculated piglets showed clinical signs of infection indicative of Ebola infection. In pigs, Ebola generally causes respiratory illness and increased temperature. Nine days after infection, all piglets appeared to have recovered from the disease.

Within eight days of exposure, two of the four monkeys showed signs of Ebola infection. Four days later, the remaining two monkeys were sick too. It is possible that the first two monkeys infected the other two, but transmission between non-human primates has never before been observed in a lab setting.

The candidate to blame for the airborne transmission: They concluded that, maybe, it was one of these three: airborne, droplet, or fomites..

What worries me the most though is this: Mutation. Ebola mutates quickly.. It was one of the meanest, cruelest, and worst nightmares for humanity. It liquefies the body, including the bones. In the past, the only way to contain the disease was to let it burn itself out in villages. Even back August of 2014, NPR and others reported on the problem containing the current outbreak being the quick mutation. Another issue is how much faster Ebola mutates in humans rather than animals..

And all that coupled together: Airborne is scary. Very scary.

If things don’t pan out in a positive way for mankind, the STAND may turn out to be true, even though my readers are most likely tired of my endless comparisons.

The question will be is this: Is anyone having dreams of Mother Abigail yet? Because the rats indeed are in the cornfield..

I think I’d watch this

Looks like it would be fun.

 

Though I think we are getting over saturated with fake parodies of movie trailers..

But the part I cannot seem to understand: TOY STORY is such a great flick for kids.. and adults have perverted the name of Woody with toys like this.

For God sakes, leave Woody alone! Is nothing sacred!?

FRIDAY NIGHT LIGHTS OUT: HIGH HOPES FOR HORROR FLICK ‘ANNABELLE’ AS MOVIE OPENS

$40 MIL?

OR $30..

There are high hopes for horror.. the winds of fear are bringing in October tonight as the movie ANNABELLE finally gets its long awaited premiere.. Those I have spoken to tonight say theaters are crowded and people are screaming. Some are laughing.. others are decrying how ‘bad’ the movie was. All of those opinions are being Facebooked and Tweeted, Tumbled and Instagrammed.

But messages are mixed.
ANNABELLE’s late night debut last night only brought in $2.1 mil–lower than the CONJURING’s $3.31 mil.. It’s also lower than the second installment of the PURGE film.. Good news for ANNABELLE, those other movies were released in the summer.

Time will tell.. By Sunday we will know if horror is alive and well at the box office or if this slump is permanent.

If I had to go out on a limb right now, I’d predict $36 mil based off of all of the information I have currently.

We shall see..

Good luck Annabelle.
