Month: December 2014

  • Plane vanishing act

    Plane vanishing act

    It would seem unlikely that an unlikely event would take place two times in one year.. but that has occurred.. It’s been months since flight MH 370 vanished without a trace or evidence of debris, and now another flight may be added to the list of strange airline disasters of 2014.

    This is what is known this far about the newest and weirdest air disaster..

    The Airbus A320-200 disappeared at approximately 2320 GMT while en route from Surabaya in Indonesia’s east Java to Singapore.
    Shortly before it vanished from the radar screens, the pilot had asked air traffic controllers to ascend by 6,000 feet to 38,000 feet to avoid severe thunderstorms.

    Indonesia has deployed seven aircraft, four navy ships and six boats from the search and rescue agency…

    The search has been called off at this time due to darkness and bad weather..

    We so know there were at least 18 children on board his fought including an infant..

    While loci would say the worst has occurred, families are still holding out hope for a miracle..

    The scenes I wailing families are similar to the aftermath of flight 370’s vanishing act..

    As could be expected, this mystery is also being intensified by online rumors, including one that has even reported on several sites that a family member got a text message saying the people are board were safe and that the plane landed..

    Even more, there were early reports on official aviation websites that the plane landed in Singapore hours before the reports surfaced of the plane going missing..

    We are following this story and attempting to not report every rumor we come across.. But the oddities surrounding this plane going missing seem to be the same as flight 370..

    Until more develops, the misery of AirAsia Flight QZ8501 will persist..

  • Plane vanished and attacks

    Plane vanished and attacks

    The HORROR REPORT is obviously going to be following this.. An AirAsia flight has lost contact with air traffic control in Jakarta, Indonesia, a crisis center for the airline said Sunday. The plane’s flight number is AirAsia Flight 8501.

    This seems to be the year of mysteries in the skies..

    But an urgent personal matter is top priority.. We appear to become a target of a mass DDOS attack.. You may or may not even be able to see this posting.

    We are working this out and checking the security levels of the site…

    And in the meantime watching the air loss story on pins and needles like the rest of the world..

  • Don’t Hug Me I’m Scared. And still creeped out.

    I recalled watching the original DON’T HUG ME I’M SCARED years ago. Heck , with how fast time moves, it seems like ages .. but it was 2011 (prior to the birth of my son, so it does actually feel like a whole other time period.)

    The video was created after a kickstarter campaign helped Becky Sloan and Joseph Pelling bring it to life.. While the original video has aged now, it was brought back into focus this weekend when Clyde Lewis posted a message on his Facebook page saying that he was speaking to someone who told him that the DON’T HUG ME I’M SCARED series is being used for MK ULTRA mind control. He asked readers to simply say what they thought after watching .. 

    Reaction was mixed–some said that people were taking the video too seriously.. Others were simply freaked out by the imagery and music. A few remarked that the video was social commentary on the education system–how educators always tell children to be creative but then attack them for doing so.

    The video, from 2011, is posted here:

    Some interesting notes to mention on this whole entire subject.

    Theories have been around for some time, this is not the first time someone has asked what the true nature of the short video is .. and even more, entire websites are devoted to in depth studies over the commentary presented in the DON’T HUG ME series..

    And if you thought the video’s allure would have been confined to only 2011 or the years since, you’re wrong. More DON’T HUG ME I’M SCARED videos are on the way.. In May 2014, Becky Sloan and Joseph Pelling announced that they would begin a kickstarter campaign to make four more episodes of the show. The third episode was just released in October of 2014, it features one character called Shrignold teaching another called The Yellow Guy about love..

    But to go deeper into what Clyde Lewis posted, the mystery behind the meaning of the video is answered, a bit at least, by the makers. Sloan said this when asked about the project in an interview with YES YOU CAN:

    We decided to create something psychedelic to compliment Tame Impala’s music. We had the idea to create an abstract journey set during the split second when two people’s eyes meet for the first time. As we wanted it to be set inside someone’s head, we looked at a lot of MRI brain scans for inspiration, as well as looped animations by artists such as Al Jarnow.

    Pelling followed up with this,

    We wanted to create something unique looking, and had never really worked with plasticine before. Our aim was to focus on using it in a new way, avoiding the obvious Wallace & Gromit approach. The good thing about plasticine is the fact you can smudge, mix and even melt it into certain shapes. This creates a very acid-y, psychedelic look without using loads of digital effects

    However that answers few mysteries, but it certainly does confirm to a degree that a partial goal of the filmmakers was to present something with hidden messages and a constant weird flow of  creepy and disturbing images.  It does not go into much detail thought of meaning.. A Google search, though, will reveal countless websites that cover topics.. One I found was written by Chris Gibson on a hubpages site, where he explained in good detail some of the meanings he was seeing in the film. The date of June 19th shows up a lot. Gibson wrote this on that topic,

    This is a tough one. There aren’t very many clues to this other than the date and the content of the videos themselves. The only real theory I have comes from typing the date into Wikipedia and searching year by year to try and find something that corresponded. The only event that seems to be related at all is the establishment of the FCC on June 19th 1934, or in other words, The Communications Act of 1934. The organization created are the people who dictate what is okay to watch on TV.

    More mysteries.. What struck me was this.. The original video–from 2011–and subsequent, made heavy references to June 19. The Kickstarter campaign to make new videos that was announced years after the first video, was fully funded in 2014. On June 19.
    Really.
    June 19th.
    That date..again. Perhaps the reality of that creeped me out, even more so than the actual video ..

    Even religious folk have debated the movie.. A forum on a Catholic themed website in October debated the topic…

    Mind control?
    Commentary?
    Forced creepiness?

    One comment on the official DON’T HUG ME I’M SCARED Facebook page made me ponder if an MK ULTRA message abounds.. It said only this on Christmas Eve,

    these videos god as witness describe my brain
    i do listen to the voices in my brain

    You can be the judge. But I dare you to only watch the video one time. But I challenge you to not watch it too many..

    But green is not a creative color.

  • The year the devil took over?

    I was reading a wonderful story from JPOST today, it was an opinion column written by Naomi Ragen.. she opens her article with a word about the hit 1970s movie THE OMEN and how she was watching it a few days back.. Ragen explained how the audience watching THE OMEN knew a bit more than the actors, and how we understood the devil was at play while they did not. Ragen said,

    In The Omen 3: Final Conflict, the screenwriters are tasked with imagining what the world would look like if the Devil gained control.

    As I read the newspapers every day, it seems to me we are seeing exactly that.

    Her point is taken.

    She writes,

    The slaughter of 132 Pakistani schoolchildren and their teachers. The latest Boko Haram atrocity in kidnapping a whole village of women and girls. The admission of an Islamic State fighter that he personally murdered 150 women and girls who refused to be raped and “married” off to a murderer. The harvesting of organs for the black market by Islamic State from prisoners and their own fighters. The bloody, senseless butchery in a Har Nof synagogue. The “revenge” murder of two New York policemen in cold blood following a chorus of political and social incitement from politicians and “race pimps,” as actor James Woods so aptly called Reverend Al Sharpton

    I think this paragraph says it best–the rest of her article delves deep into political and religious themes which you could read yourself.

    I only promote this column because, if you have read the HORROR REPORT throughout the year, you’ll know that I often have written the gates of hell were open. Ever since SIRI announced it on iPhones in 2013, it seemed to take place. Even Joe Biden spoke of it in a speech.. It was the devil’s year.

    If there is a devil.

    And with the evil on the planet, how could there not be..

    One of the most horrific parts of the tragedies which have befallen the world seemingly have been taking place against children. They are not being spared, with beheadings affecting them in territory that ISIS now covers, and the mass school shooting in Pakistan that made America’s famed school murders look like child’s play, no pun intended.

    This world was filled with grief in 2014.. countless nightmares before Christmas.. Pain and suffering across the planet.

    Naomi Ragen finished her opinion piece like this,

    The consequences of the wrong choices by our generation are truly beyond the wildest imagination of even the most skillful horror movie screenwriters.

    Maybe 2015 will bring a comedy. Or a drama.. or just a good old fashioned action flick.
    Or maybe a continuation of horror.. playing out in nightly news accounts endlessly..

     

  • A savior for every species

    A savior for every species

    Perhaps it’s just that miraculous time of year..?

    Video is making the rounds today online showing a monkey saving his friend.. But even more, the monkey that is being saved was without any sign of life for 20 minutes–his friend apparently had some sort of other worldly to bring back  a monkey from the edge of death..

    There is video evidence of something.. as you can see here.

    You can determine if you believe this to be a modern miracle in the monkey world or just a chance action in life.

    [youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=57GZ1v9bBpw]

    The Associated Press picked up the story, as well.. The dispatch writes 

    Onlookers at a train station in northern India watched in awe as a monkey came to the rescue of an injured friend – resuscitating another monkey that had been electrocuted and knocked unconscious.

    A Christmas miracle. Not confined to the human race..

  • Early Christmas Eve news roundup

    Early Christmas Eve news roundup

    As Christmas Eve begins this early morning hour, there are still toils and troubles making news from the world and beyond.. A collection and smattering here now from the planet not nearly at peace like we’d wish..

    There may not be a war directed at Christmas.. but there sure are wars ON Christmas..

    News from Ohio this year.. A homeowner is making news after reporting to the world that his township is telling him to take down his zombie nativity scene.. The owner of the scene also has a haunted house called 13 ROOMS OF DOOM… And he believes his first amendment rights are being violated..

    Another fatal shooting near Ferguson.. according to reports, an 18-year-old pointed a hand gun at a police officer.. he was shot. The protesters say that the brutality aspect entered when police failed to call for medical assistance for Antonio Martin after he was shot.. The St. Louis Police Department is handling the internal investigation, but we know that the inital AP report is this for the record: “One of the men pulled a handgun and pointed it at the officer, Schellman said. The officer fired several shots, striking and fatally wounding the man. The second man fled, and the dead man’s handgun has been recovered, according to Schellman” ..

    Western journalist given unprecedented access to ISIS for days.. he came back reporting that ISIS plans the largest religious cleansing of the planet in history.. Even more: The reporter says that the West has no concept of how dangerous ISIS is.. With that premise: ISIS sets its sights on ‘cleansing’ Europe next..
    MEANWHILE..

  • The safety net of the future?

    THE NEXT BIG SOCIAL IDEA: UNCONDITIONAL BASIC INCOME »

    The fundamental theory behind this new social idea:

    Unconditional Basic Income.

    The UBI is a monthly monetary income granted every month, unconditionally, by a political community to each of its members from birth. Depending on the nation, in Europe and the U.S. it would probably be $2,500 per adult and $1,500 per child. It must secure a minimum livelihood and enable a participation in society. It is unconditional because it constitutes a human, civil and legal right and shall be provided without proof of need and without obligation to work, search for work, or performing any services in return. Yes, you’re being paid to live, work and participate as you please.

    Some may immediately decry this as a socialist experiment on crack.. But there’s something to be said for one point of this: I often wonder about the future, especially about jobs.. as they dry and whither, does this UBI become more possible?

    Does time may it almost necessary to feed and clothe a population that has succumbed to the machine and lost out to the monotony that only robots can perform well?

    Would this promote a new age of art and literature, perhaps people leaving jobs they hate and filling their newfound safety net with good things. Just very good things?

    Or does all of this get wrecked with the lack of monetary value?

    I have a suspicious mind about UBI .. but I also have a belief that if we do not address the reorganization taking place within our economy, the vast majority of people who are going to lose their jobs in the next ten due to technology and progress are going to be in a very bad spot.

    But the 1% will still be fine..

  • All the world’s a stage

    After all that.. SONY will show THE INTERVIEW in ‘select theaters’ Christmas..

    Call me a kooky conspiracy nut, but I offer up the following premise, only based on hunches and a windy tale of a spider web of oddities..

    THE INTERVIEW was getting really bad press.. and awful reviews. Most who saw it said it was not funny. It looked disastrous..
    The State Department helped write the ending. Along with someone from the RAND Corp, that was reported in the DAILY BEAST..

    Sony got hacked—either an inside job or a group called the GOP. I don’t believe North Korea did it.. not that they wouldn’t want to. But SONY figured out a great PR way to make America hate North Korea, force headlines about racist and sordid emails OFF the front pages, and cancel a movie, only to create a demand to release it.

    President Obama got in on the action.
    And suddenly it seems to be a patriotic duty to go see THE INTERVIEW..

    It reads like a spy novel.. or a badly written HOLLYWOOD film.
    And really, isn’t all the world a stage?

    Maybe we saw some players for who they are?

  • Pope Francis’ Christmas message becomes brutal and honest assessment of Vatican issues

    Pope Francis’ year is ending with a bang..
    The leader of the Catholic Church stood in the Curia in Rome.. the annual Christmas gift is laden with holy rhetoric and stories of God, Jesus, and a Virgin Birth that gave us Christmas..

    But Pope Francis’ approach this year was not with tradition.. his words blazed with fire as they were pronounced.. those in attendance were given a harsh admonishment for their ways.. the Pope of the people was sincere in his pronouncements.. he seemingly has found a source of moral ruin within the walls of the Vatican.

    The Pope told the Cardinals, some who seemingly looked like they were wincing and squirming in their self-righteous chairs, that there is an ‘illness’ in the churcg raging.. the Pontiff said that bureaucracy at the Vatican  was complete with a “disease of feeling immortal” to vainglory and excessive planning.. he said that a church that does not improve is akin to a ‘sick body.’

    He railed against the “pathology of power.”

    Francis said,

    Those who lose their inner serenity, their vivacity and audacity, to hide behind their papers, becoming like procedural machines rather than men of God. This is dangerous to lose human sensitivity, so necessary in order to cry with those who cry and enjoy with those who enjoy.

    Even more, Francis went on to say there is a danger of ‘spiritual Alzheimer’s’.. forgetting the story of salvation.. and a ‘lost memory’ when people encounter God after this existence is finalized.

    The words were eloquent. Even more, they were hard hitting.

    Pope Francis was spot on in his assessment of how gossip prevails in the halls of the Vatican–secret whispers and hints of power playing.. More from Francis:

    This is a serious disease that begins simply when people chatter, and it takes over the person, turning the person as a Satan, and in so many cases people are speaking ill about their own colleagues and brothers and sisters. These people haven’t got the courage to speak directly, and they speak about others behind their backs,” he said. “Dear brothers, let us be aware and guard against the terrorism of gossip

    Dear brothers, such diseases and such temptations are a naturally a danger for each Christian and for each Curia. For each community, for any ecclesiastical movement. They can damage both individually and the community. We have to say that only the Holy Spirit and the soul of Christ, only he can protect us from the disease.

    We have to cure ourselves of these. Let us try to grow together and close to Christ.

     cardinals2

    And so it was said.
    A Cardinal said it best: This was a dressing down like no other..Cardinal Giovanni Lajolo, the former Vatican governor and foreign minister said “to be honest, nothing like this has ever happened before,’
