9/26/2015 — New York struck by rare M3.0 Earthquake
The media isn’t reporting it..
But proof is here: The USGS has the numbers..

The power of Christ compels me to not like remakes.. but there is so much hype and hope over the EXORCIST remake that I will hope it’s good, too.
The question for me: Will the vomit scene by CGI or will they rely on the old fashioned pea soup method..?

Nic Cage interviewed on his new horror movie PAY THE GHOST .. the star also talked about the horror genre in general.
He said, ‘I certainly would have participated more in what you call “straight-up horror” if I had been given the opportunities to participate in them earlier on in my career’..
Read more on this. I am with Cage, especially on the slasher body count idea..
Some more media interviews of Cage yielded this interesting factoid about his true thoughts of the paranormal in general: Esquire talked to him about PAY THE GHOST and also his own personal fears.. “I would say that I’m 98 percent skeptical, but the other 2 percent [is] open for the possibility of things.” ..
On the question of whether he experienced the paranormal, Cage responded, “Nothing I would be able to discuss on public record. I’m not going there” ..
Sounds like he may not be doing any Celebrity Ghost Story show, but there may be a basis for the 2%.. I think there is a basis for the 2% with everyone, including me.
When that 2% type of event occurs to you, you’re immediately placed into a mental location you’ve never expected to be. Sometimes you get the same feeling during a NIC CAGE movie (I kid Nic, I kid him) .. but his track record on films is often hit or miss.
Hopefully PAY THE GHOST scares up some cash based off of a strong story line. Often people cringe during Cage flicks. Hopefully if they do during PAY THE GHOST it will be for the right reasons..

CJ Pearson is an immediate success with conservatives for his youthful attacks on the President and Democrats..
He’s a black teen who has been swelling in popularity..
But now it appears that the teen in stardom fever either punked his fans or was punked himself, with no evidence pointing at an unfollow conspiracy.. And more: This young intelligent (I will give him that) teen wants people to sign a petition to meet with Obama–this is the reason, Pearson says, he was banned…

The Pope’s Excellent American Vacation comes to Philly. And then Francis met Marky Mark
The major story this week was the Papal visit.. covered here a bit too..
There remains a few last minute articles to contemplate regarding the Pope before he goes back to Rome..
Among them:
Did Philadelphia go *way* overboard with security? I know few things not mentioned in the USA TODAY article.. I would argue, based off of what I know, it was beyond overboard and almost paranoid.. Maybe they were listening to the prophecies about end times, or even the Mormons fretting about the Sunday blood moon. The pope has also showcased his energy during his excellent American adventure, but he is now wearyand walking with a limp–and caught on camera stumbling up the steps..
I think people so often forget his age..
But there was one last Papal moment, at this point, that I need desreves some notes..
It’s this: Actor Mark Wahlberg hosted an event attended by Pope Francis in Philly.. He also made a joke about the raunchy movie ‘TED’ in front of Francis..
He also said “go Eagles”… tacky tacky tacky..

Horror flop this weekend: Eli Roth’s ode to cannibal horror called THE GREEN INFERNO averaged $955 per theater.. the film is graphic and has a 38 on Rotten Tomatoes.
Reviewers have not been kind, either, calling the film awful..
People with strong stomachs may enjoy the movie. Others may turn away–and it would appear they did if the numbers hold up.. INFERNO appears likely to finish even lower that THE VISIT in its second week in box offices..


The space agency says a major announcement is coming Monday, a news conference is set for 11:30am ET adn will be broadcast on NASA TV and its website–hopefully it the news is big enough, people will ignore Donald Trump for five minutes and actually give the space agency some time on the major networks..
If it’s HUGE enough, NBC should do the Chimes of Death and give us a special report on their affiliates. Of course it would have to be big news for the Chimes to play.
Perhaps water on Mars is.. or life.. or evidence, conclusive evidence, of either..
One common joke has emerged on the Twitters: NASA found astronaut Mark Watney. Watney is the name of the fictional astronaut stranded on Mars in the movie THE MARTIAN.
While people are in a frenzy with speculation, a part of me thinks this will be just be a ho-hum news conference with little information rendered.
I hope I’m wrong, but that seemingly has happened before with earth shattering news.
The most exciting space story of the year, minus the rodents on Mars images offbeat sites find, has been Pluto and the ever changing way we view that non planet planet. I think life on Mars or evidence of past life would far dominate Pluto..
We will see Monday.
