ATLANTA – Channel 2 Action News has learned that the body found near the Chattahoochee River late Tuesday night is Timothy Cunningham.
Cunningham — who worked at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention — left work on Feb. 12, saying he wasn’t feeling well. The 35-year-old hadn’t been seen since.
The medical examiner said the preliminary cause of death for Cunningham is drowning but she said officials are still determining the exact cause of death.
This morning while skimming VICE I found a snippet of information worth repeating:
According to unpublished FEMA documents obtained by Government Attic, a FOIA database and non-profit organization, the Department of Homeland Security agency once mapped out a disaster plan for the occurrence of another geomagnetic “superstorm,” noting that the rare—yet “high-consequence”—scenario has “the potential for catastrophic impact on our nation and FEMA’s ability to respond.”
Lots of sites and pages on social media are playing this up! Confirmation that the end times are here!
….I look at it a bit differently.
First off if such an event occurred we would be barely ready. Some agencies and people with islands including solar panels could be well off, but society as a whole would undoubtedly disintegrate rapidly. That is where the contingency plans may need to be focused.. The aftermath. The weeks–months, years?–without power in some locales. And the idea that our life, powered by electricity, would be essentially shifted into the abyss of cavemen lifestyles immediately.
Dapper dans donning suits and ties at work? That goes away quickly. That facade you’re comfortably acting out only works with heat, air conditioning, and lights.
I am glad the government is planning things out. A solar flare of epic proportions happened before. It will happen again. All things, when able to happen, will happen. Disasters. Good days. Bad days. Asteroids. Water supply problems. Droughts. Floods.
And yes, solar storms.
The government needs to be better prepared. While they are at it they should also being hunting down killer asteroids that potentially can end life.
And we can all hope that an asteroid doesn’t coincide with the solar storm.
…that…that..would be hell on earth.

MUCH ADO ABOUT NOT MUCH RATINGS..
Despite a week’s worth of stories about her controversial interview with conspiracy theorist Alex Jones, the Q&A ended up being watched by only 3.5 million viewers, and was soundly beaten by CBS rival “60 Minutes,” which drew 5.3 million viewers, according to Nielsen.

I figured something was up last week when Megyn Kelly visited the set of Alex Jones.. Jones told her to sit in the same chair that Matt Drudge sat in in 2016.. She was joking with him while on his set of his daily syndicated Youtube and radio program..
All friendly..
Then ..
The real interview.. people angry that NBC gave Jones a major voice – though he most likely was one of the biggest influences on the 2016 election of anyway.
And now this: Controversy! Jones has the secret tapes!
More from the DAILY BEAST:
Alex Jones, the conspiracy-theorizing host of the Infowars website whose controversial interview with NBC’s Megyn Kelly is set to air Sunday night, has fallen back to the argument of every disgruntled interviewee: “They took me out of context.”
Except in this case, Jones may cause serious trouble for Kelly, who he apparently took the precaution of covertly taping in pre-interview calls and, he claims, the interview itself, which he is now publicizing on Infowars and his YouTube channel. And in those clandestine clips, the former Fox News host appears to promise to go easy on him in the interview.
In one 30-minute video Jones published that included extensive audio of a pre-interview call with Kelly, the new NBC hire appeared to promise the interview would be a softball personality piece.
“My goal is for your listeners and the left—you know, who will be watching some on NBC—to say, ‘Wow, that’s really interesting,” the voice that appears to be Kelly says. “It’s not going to be some gotcha hit piece, I promise you that.”
Thanks to Ground Zero with Clyde Lewis, we now have some big attention being paid to this story.. I received a link a day ago and neglected to even pass it through to my own readers.. when I saw the Facebook post from Clyde Lewis and accompanying video, I paid attention..
And the video here:
[youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g0dWJLzPRnw]
There are some fanciful (maybe??) rumors that he was abducted by aliens! And even some more on message boards that if you watch the video contained in my post you will suffer strange damage to your ears ..really. As a precaution, I watched with the sound off. Not joking on that point..
One rumor states that Bruno became the statue in the video.
While I must stop myself from complete belief of this, it is awfully strange. Also I have been reading Brazilian news articles about it translated into English.. Borges seemingly is the son of a wealthy restaurant and businessman in Brazil. I would imagine that is where he was able to get the money for the items in the video..
But a cautionary note: The video on YouTue is categorized under ‘gaming.’ Some believe this is an incredibly amazing hoax to promote an upcoming game… a mystery egg online…
The jury is out.
For now, it’s an Alchemist gone missing… and conspiracy theories abound.
The fun rumors of the day… Bieber fever has gone to a new level.. apparently hundreds–that’s right hundreds–of fans say Justin turn into a reptile ..
Buzzfeed is reporting everything you need to know about the Justin Bieber reptilian conspiracy theory here.. from the article:
Much of the conspiracy hinges on an article ALLEGEDLY published (and then quickly taken down) on Perth Now, with a headline reading “Hundreds Of Fans Claim They Saw Justin Bieber Turn Into Giant Reptile”.
The alleged story went on to claim police had been called by distressed fans who saw “gross, coloured scales” all over Bieber’s body.
This site seemed to kick off the conspiracies, with the added bonus of more quotes about Lizard Bieber from the very reliable source of “local skater.”
“He was hanging around with this big guy, his bodyguard I guess, and we were just staring because he kept turning into a huge reptile,” said a local skater. “His bodyguard was pointing at us, shouting that he’d kick our teeth in if we didn’t put our phones away.”
So the conspiracy continues. And with each new post, Tweet, or Tumbl, it grows more..
Justin Bieber….. the reptilian shapeshifter.
Not the first time this rumor has been around though.
Back during his court appearance in 2014, his eyes created a stir when they appeared to change quite a bit, either because of a glitch. Or because his inner-reptilian was coming out.

This is some good conspiracy ….
This video was from 2013. The maker thought it was the Hoover Dam.
Considering my previous post tonight about a REDDIT user days ago predicting a Oroville Dam failure, what if it was NOT the Hoover Dam.. what if it was what we are about to witness in real time. Now. Oroville… ?
This is a screen shot of some REDDIT conversation THREE DAYS AGO – BEFORE THE OROVILLE DAM FAILURE and before the evaluation orders were issued..
The dam..
Trump..
Pizzagate…

Outside a strange silver object like nothing they’d ever seen before, hovered over a field, just beyond their playground.
Headmaster Ralph Llewellyn dismissed the distraught pupils’ claims, without going outside to look. It was a decision he would regret forever.
For to this day, even as adults, they maintain there was only one description of what they’d seen – an Unidentified Flying Object .
Schoolboy David Davies, in the playground on that February Friday afternoon, stood looking at something that would leave him with a lifetime’s fascination and a drive to get to the truth of what that strange object was.
“It was pearlescent silvery-grey,” he says, “approximately 40ft long, torpedo, cigar-shaped, with an upper domed section that covered the central third of the vehicle and which was topped with a red pulsating light.”
Upset their claims were being ignored, David and his classmates handed in a petition to the police station.
In the end, the headmaster separated the children and asked them to draw what they had seen under exam conditions. He was amazed to find their drawings were almost identical to each other.
It is one of the more famous UFO stories in our short history of such things. And very controversial. A large amount of people buy their story.. a large amount don’t–attention grabbing kids, they say! People even said the teaching incited the madness and told them what to draw..
There was another famous mass UFO sighting among school children – this in 1994.. It was the town of Ruwa, Zimbabwe, on September 16th 1994. The children claim to have seen multiple hovering objects that resembled what we would describe as spaceships. In that case, ALL of the 62 kids said they saw a UFO –all – and all describe virtually the same exact thing. The warning from the entities was about environmental calamity.. This story has been well documented, is very serious, and was studied by various researchers. One of them is Harvard University psychologist Dr. John Mack. He himself interviewed these children personally, as well as many others. The story spread around the world quite fast and his interviews with the children were conducted shortly after the incident.
For any New England patriot fan last night, the ending of the Super Bowl was historic an epic. Throughout the entire game Tom Brady looked like an imp, not completing passes or simply clumsily moving the ball continuously without results or fruition. The Atlanta Falcons blew into the stadium and blew away the New England Patriots almost immediately. The game was 28 to virtually nothing and many viewers, even reportedly the president Donald Trump, tuned out..
Commercials were lame.. and Lady Gaga dropped from the ceiling..
From there, the turnaround took place. Out of nowhere Tom Brady somehow grew back into a football player and completed passes, tied the game, and in a historic overtime event, won the Super Bowl giving the Patriots yet another ring.
A few years ago I heard several interviews from an author who wrote a book about the fix being in throughout professional sports.. His argument was that most games we see have pre-predicted outcomes, they have winners already chosen behind the scenes, and marketing geniuses have done their best to make the sports look like they’re all just outcomes of good practice and skill.
Ever since I was young one of my favorite things to watch with professional wrestling. Throughout the last few years sadly my love of the sports entertainment from Vince McMahon has faded a bit with the passage of time and 20th century legends ..
However, after looking at last nights game and reading commentary, it seems to me that Vince McMahon may learn quite a bit from the Super Bowl, how referees could make or break your game, and how to make one team look like their castrated and suddenly have the prowess of a horse.
I will watch sports, just as I do politics, and observe and deconstruct in my mind. Sports and politics are really no different from Vince McMahon’s WWE, sometimes the outcomes may look spontaneous but the ‘smoke-filled rooms’ behind the scenes just as well could have logically chosen them beforehand.. politics and sports are the ultimate diversions from reality.
I do not degrade anyone who is a sports fan, nor do I want to take away their love of whatever chosen game they have. But a careful look at your team and your sport of choice could draw sad results if you think what you’re watching is anything but sports entertainment. Soccer had recent scandals, baseball did too. We haven’t heard much yet about basketball and football but undoubtedly the same demons of cash exist behind the scenes as well. It’s naïve to think that the sport you love hasn’t been influenced by money and greed.
But does money and greed equal a fixed game? With time all truth comes out. In the meantime, carefully analyze last night’s Super Bowl and realize that the come from behind victory was a storybook ending to a season.
Miracles happen.. but the chances of a storybook ending like that happening are much less statistically in the idea of a game being fixed by money men and referees behind the scenes.
