  • Bourdain fate: The great unknown

    Bourdain fate: The great unknown

    Anthony Bourdain, a gifted storyteller and writer who took CNN viewers around the world on his program PARTS UNKNOWN, has died.

    He was 61.

    CNN confirmed Bourdain’s death on Friday and said the cause of death was suicide.

    A master of his craft, but seemingly not the demons of his mind..

    “It is with extraordinary sadness we can confirm the death of our friend and colleague, Anthony Bourdain,” the network said in a statement Friday morning. “His love of great adventure, new friends, fine food and drink and the remarkable stories of the world made him a unique storyteller. His talents never ceased to amaze us and we will miss him very much. Our thoughts and prayers are with his daughter and family at this incredibly difficult time.”

    This comes at a time where news releases indicate that suicide is one of the highest causes of death in America and in history.

    There have been some other recent famous hangings.. Conspiracy theories are abounding.
    On Friday’s INFOWARS program with Alex Jones, the host claimed that Bourdain recently had been meeting with Elon Musk and was about to turn into a Donald Trump fan. He hinted–not outright accused, but hinted–that the Bourdain death is more fire than smoke.. more conspiracy behind the scenes. Perhaps, Jones insinuated, not a suicide but one to be made look like one…

    Hawaii Kilauea volcano: Renewed threat to the big island and drone reveals big cracks

    https://www.yahoo.com/news/more-evacuations-fast-moving-hawaii-083059610.html?format=embed

    The latest from the Hawaii volcano scene according to REUTERS:

     A stream of lava as wide as three football fields flowed over a highway near a junction at Kapoho, a seaside community of rebuilt after a destructive eruption of Kilauea in 1960.

     The lava flow left Kapoho and the adjacent development of Vacationland cut off from the rest of the island by road, according to the Hawaii County Civil Defense agency.

    Also, lava destroyed a freshwater lake, boiling away all of the water in it, the Hawaiian Volcano Observatory reported late Saturday, local time.

    Toxic sulfur dioxide gas emissions have created an additional hazard. So too have airborne volcanic glass fibers, called “Pele’s hair,” wispy strands produced by lava fountains and carried aloft by the wind.
    One resident, Nancy Avery, said the glass strands hurt like paper cuts, slicing into her fingers and feet, toes exposed because she wore only sandals. She tried to pick up a strand but, “It just kind of melted into my skin and cut me. It’s so sharp, it feels like the glass is still in there.”

    There is more information of strikingly nature coming from the state: A drone footage captured the volcano from the sky — but also revealed some very strange cracks as the vent is expecting with the crater floor collapse.. The area of the collapse is now more than half the original area of the original crater……

    Seven people have been killed and nearly 300 injured after Guatemala’s Fuego volcano erupted, officials say.

    THE WORLD IS ACTIVE.. REUTERS REPORTING THIS:

    At least six people were killed and another 20 injured on Sunday when Guatemala’s Fuego volcano erupted violently, spewing a stream of red hot lava and belching a thick plume of black smoke and ash that rained onto the capital and other regions.
    “It’s a river of lava that overflowed its banks and affected the Rodeo village. There are injured, burned and dead people,” Sergio Cabanas, the general secretary of Guatemala’s Conred disaster agency, said on radio.
    “We are evacuating and rescuing people and have reports of 20 wounded, six dead and disappeared,” said Cabanas.

    The latest numbers after this initial report now indicate 7 dead..300 injured.. the numbers will rise..

    Fuego erupts

    The volcano, about 25 miles south-west of the capital Guatemala City, has been spewing black smoke and ash into the sky.

    A total of about a million people have been affected by the eruption, the Guatemalan government says.

    Officials have advised citizens to wear masks due to falling ash, which has been raining down in four of Guatemala’s administrative regions.

  • HEATHERS reboot becomes causality of modern real violence

    HEATHERS reboot becomes causality of modern real violence

    Viacom said Saturday that the TV reboot of HEATHERS will not air on Paramount or any other Viacom properties.

    HEATHERS was a 1988 cult favorite that featured teen murder and suicide.. The remake not shelved was based on the film starring Winona Ryder and Christian Slater..

    It was set to premiere in March, but was delayed after the Parkland, Fla., shooting in which 17 people were killed.
    Viacom says the subject matter is not suitable in the current environment. 
    It is, however, open to the possibility of selling the show to a more fitting outlet.
  • Bill Murray asked about Weinstein.. and appears to not be fully aware of the situation?

    Bill Murray asked about Weinstein.. and appears to not be fully aware of the situation?

    He was being interviewed by the GUARDIAN.. Murray’s words about Harvey Weinstein appear to be a bit uninformed?

    Murray was asked to respond to a comment the disgraced former mogul made in 2014: “Being a Murray-ite is a religion, where you can behave as badly as you want to people, and they still love you. I used to feel guilty about behaving badly, and then I met Bill, and it feels so much better.”

    “Well, I think Harvey was saying something funny, and you can take something someone said a few years ago out of context, but I think that’s a funny thing he said,” Murray says, seemingly unbothered, before pivoting to the wider context.

    “Are you asking for a comment about Harvey Weinstein? I mean, I don’t know exactly what he’s being accused of yet, but I know some of the people involved in that situation, one very sweet person, and it hurts to hear her speak about it,” he adds. “Really, it hurts…I feel the pain about it, and the pain is not over.”

    To remind Bill Murray, Weinstein is being accused of sexual misconduct — and rape .. 80 women since last autumn have come forward.

    Brian De Palma is planning a Harvey Weinstein horror movie.

    Perhaps we have a potential cast member.

    THE DANCING DOCTOR SCALPEL

    An attorney representing three women in cases against an Atlanta-area dermatologist known for singing and dancing while performing surgery says nearly 100 other women have contacted her office to claim they, too, suffered under the doctor’s scalpel.

    In videos once posted to Dr. Windell Boutte’s public YouTube channel, the board-certified dermatologist can be seen singing as she cuts into a patient or rapping and dancing with surgical instruments in hand during surgical procedures. 

    At times, assistants in scrubs sashayed alongside her.

  • Unusual laser emission from the Ant Nebula

    Unusual laser emission from the Ant Nebula


    Some space-aged food for thought to consider this weekend.

    An international team of astronomers have discovered an unusual laser emission that suggests the presence of a double star system hidden at the heart of the “spectacular” Ant Nebula.

    The extremely rare phenomenon is connected to the death of a star and was discovered in observations made by European Space Agency’s (ESA) Herschel space observatory.

    A nebula is an interstellar cloud of dust, hydrogen, helium and other ionized gases. The Ant Nebula earns its nickname from the twin lobes that resemble the head and body of an ant.

    The recent Herschel observations have shown that the dramatic demise of the central star in the core of the Ant Nebula is even more theatrical than implied by its colourful appearance in visible images — such as those taken by the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope.

  • WEINSTEIN HORROR REVEALED!

    WEINSTEIN HORROR REVEALED!

    Brian De Palma is returning to the horror genre with a new script inspired by Harvey Weinstein.

    He made“Carrie,” and now according to the French publication Le Parisien (via The Playlist) that he will be taking on Weinstein’s sexual harassment and abuse in a new film.

    Weinstein will not be a named character in the film, but he will inspire the movie’s narrative.

    “I’m writing a film about this scandal, a project I’m talking about with a French producer,” De Palma said. “My character won’t be named Harvey Weinstein but it will be a horror film, with a sexual aggressor, and it will take place in the film industry.”

    I am NOT thehorrorreport

    After receiving a few messages and being tagged in a few Facebook posts, I just wanted to make this official: I am NOT thehorrorreport.com. This is HORRORREPORT.COM ..

    This website has existed in a few incarnations, at one time with a DASH, but has been here steadfast since 1999 on an old Geocities website.

    The new THEhorrorreport seemingly has been around since January of this year.

    No offense taken. It’s the net BABY.. all is fair game.

    But we have been online since the 20th century…

    We just wanted to make that very official at this time.
