Little bit of info...Still watching the New Madrid fault. There had been talks during the 1811 eruption of underground volcanoes being a big factor...Apparently in recent weeks there have been some seemingly small smoke plumes seen around Arkansas and Mississippi and people are reporting smelling sulfur.

There are mixed reports at the moment, but Mexico just either had a 7.6 or 7.9 earthquake.

Another 188 days..Another 7+ quake....About 6 times now every 187-189 days theres been a 7+ quake.

on CNN they said there are about 17 7.0+ earthquakes a year

There are, but 7.4 is the baseline low number...An 8.8 quake occured on a 188 day cycle as well as a 9.4. I heard they upgraded the quake to 7.9.



Also a new video is out with the TSA (Terrorist Syndicate of America) patting down a 3 year old who is confined to a wheelchair.

Jim Berkland is actually very reputable and has predicted many quakes correctly in the past based on moon pull, tides, etc. He says we are in a very strong "window" from the 19th to the 26th. I wasn't really thinking about the West Coast, but I have seen some odd patterns of quakes along the cascadian fault latley where there is like 20 quakes in succession...When I look back at the Japan quake I see a similar pattern.

There was just a shooting in Modesto, California. The dude apparently shot a cop and now locked himself inside his house. Apparently he might have explosives and past military experience. If you want to listen to the polices radio feed, here is the link:

Wow.. this is pretty insane right now, pretty much didn't believe the actual shooter made this thread on 4chan, but they were just confirming it on the radio transmission that is him posting the comments.

It's most likely going to 404 very soon. here is a news broadcast right now.

The archived 4chan thread is below, which was confirmed on the police radio that it was indeed him who made that thread and posted in it. They have also now switched to a private channel on the police radio because the shooter has a scanner. The cop and civilian has also been confirmed dead.

Any reason why he shot the cop and civilian?

Nope, and apparently the FOX40 station printed out the whole 4chan thread and showed some of it on tv.

"Past military experience..." That tells me all I need to know. With all of the troops and officers coming back with so many mental issues, this thing is becoming more and more common.

oh 4chan

Oh god, this FOX40 is a joke, they just reported that a friend of his posted on ebaumsworld saying he has bear traps in his house and his name is Jimmy "James" Russels... now whats that meme again.

To put the period on that news story, they threw tear gas into the guys home and it caught the place on fire. They let the fire burn out and the suspect is presumed dead.

Jimmy Russels' apartment is still smoking aparently

Bringing this thread back so we don't flood the RDT with bullshit.

What the fuck. What could this possibly accomplish other than misinforming people?

Right now there is a massive evacuation going on. The entire UT Austin College Campus is being evacuated, as well as North Dakota St. Campus. UT Austin has around 50,000 or more people on it. They apparently have recieved bomb threats.

Influenza has officially reached epidemic proportions in the United States, with 7.3 percent of deaths last week caused by pneumonia and the flu, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said on Friday.

That is just above the epidemic threshold of 7.2 percent. Nine of the 10 U.S. regions had "elevated" flu activity, confirming that seasonal flu has spread across the country and reached high levels several weeks before the usual time of late January or February. The other region, the Southwest and California, had "normal" flu activity last week.
*from the article

This flu stuff is serious business. You guys take care of yourselves. Flu shots are available at Rite Aid stores and are covered by most insurance plans. They are also giving away coupon books worth $100 for anyone who is vaccinated. Drink fluids, rest, and don't go out when you don't have to.

Last time I got a flu shot I got sicker than hell. I rather just keep up my immune system the natural way.

I just got over a cold so hopefully my immune system is stronger, Really sucks I'm forced to be in school with overachievers who are too stupid to realize they're sick and stay home. I'm gonna be a germaphobic in school for a while.

If you ask people from the flu shot you are gonna get 5 answers:

A. I get the flu shot and never get sick. You are stupid not to.

B. I get the flu shot and got violently sick.

C. I never get the flu shot and never get sick

D. I sometimes get it, and sometimes get sick

E. Don't put those chemicals into your body..you moron.

And you are gonna get about the same amoutn of each answer from what I've seen..So, all I can say is that we have the highest rate of flu vaccinations percantage wise (135 million, almost half) and we are the only country near epidemic levels of flu.

Wetz, there is no way that the vaccinations are actually causing the epidemic. Lol. IOf anything, they are a botched attempt of trying to prevent it.
