Bloodsuckers Spreading a New Deadly Virus in the U.S. Photo credit: bigstock.com Springtime is here friends and you know what that means: sunshine, walks outdoors, camping trips, field trips for the kids and those ugly, bloodsucking, disease infested ticks. As if ticks on their own are not disgusting enough, the fact that they harbor and spread disease only makes them more repugnant. Named after the county in Kansas where it was first discovered, the Bourbon virus was isolated for the first time by the CDC (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention) after the death of a 50 year old man in spring of 2014. The infected male was working on his property and was the victim of multiple tick bites. While the victim was hospitalized, doctors there tested him for known infectious diseases, but all tests returned negative. This information was published in the CDC’s own journal “Infectious Diseases.” Continue to Page 2 Now there are several types of thogotoviruses that are known from around the globe, however, this particular strain is new.

Storm Prediction Center Chemicals In Our Waters Are Affecting Humans And Aquatic Life In Unanticipated Ways -- ScienceDaily American and Canadian scientists are finding that out of sight, out of mind can no longer be the approach we take to the chemicals in our waters. Substances that we use everyday are turning up in our lakes, rivers and ocean, where they can impact aquatic life and possibly ourselves. Now these contaminants are affecting aquatic environments and may be coming back to haunt us in unanticipated ways. Derek Muir of Environment Canada and colleagues have determined that of the 30,000 or so chemicals used commercially in the United States and Canada, about 400 resist breaking down in the environment and can accumulate in fish and wildlife. John Incardona and Nathaniel Scholz at National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's Northwest Fisheries Science Center and the West Coast Center for Oceans and Human Health found that polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) left in Pacific waters after the Exxon Valdez oil spill caused heart defects in herring and pink salmon embryos.
Daylight Time By act of Congress, civil clocks in most areas of the United States are adjusted ahead one hour in the summer months (known as daylight time) and returned back one hour in the winter months (known as standard time). The dates marking the beginning and end of daylight time have changed as Congress has passed new statutes. As of 2007, daylight time begins in the United States on the second Sunday in March and ends on the first Sunday in November. On the second Sunday in March, clocks are set ahead one hour at 2:00 a.m. local standard time (which becomes 3:00 a.m. local daylight time). On the first Sunday in November, clocks are set back one hour at 2:00 a.m. local daylight time (which becomes 1:00 a.m. local standard time). Not all places in the U.S. observe daylight time. * New law went into effect. Many countries observe some form of "summer time." Daylight time and time zones in the U.S. are defined in the U.S. History of Daylight Time in the U.S.
50% of the World's Wildlife Gone in Just 2 Human Generations By Open Contributing Writer for Wake Up World Anyone accustomed to Openhand knows that our approach is to fearlessly embrace the truth, even if that makes us unpopular. Why? Because only the truth can truly set you free. There’s so much deception and distortion abound on the planet. With that in mind, were you aware that in the last two human generations alone, we have lost over 50% of the planet’s wildlife? A Shift Into the Higher Density In the Openhand View, this is now practically impossible to turn back. It is nothing to fear, but rather to fully embrace. But you can only truly do that of course, you can only dive into the deepend of your own soul’s salvation, when you surrender to the bigger movement of life; the natural underlying flow of the universe. You’re constantly hearing in spiritual circles how ‘we are the one’ and ‘that we are eternal’ and that we ‘exist in multiple dimensions’. Most importantly, how might that inspire your commitment to spiritual evolution? The Living Planet
Massive Global Tree Die-Off Caused By Geoengineering - Zen Gardner by Dane Wigington Contributor, ZenGardner.com Suburbanization and industrial deforestation are decimating the world’s trees, and there are only 2 intact giant forests remaining on planet earth. However, across the globe, some other phenomenon is causing standing trees to wither and die in record numbers, and at present, the problem is receiving considerable mention in California, where millions of trees are dying during the worst drought the region has seen in perhaps some 1200 years. “We are seeing major tree die off everywhere in N. The U.S. However, in areas of California less-affected by the drought such as the Boreal forest of the northern central valley of California, it’s not just trees that are withering away, but shrubs, bushes and plants are also dying in shocking quantities. In California and in other parts of the world, many are making the connection between climate engineering and these tree die-offs. ?

The New Madrid Earthquake That Will Divide The United States In Half Michael SnyderActivist Post Once upon a time, North America almost divided along a very deep subsurface rift. Today, that rift system and the faults associated with it are known as the New Madrid fault zone. This fault zone is six times larger than the San Andreas fault zone in California and it covers portions of Illinois, Indiana, Missouri, Arkansas, Kentucky, Tennessee and Mississippi. Back in 1811 and 1812, four of the largest earthquakes in U.S. history struck that area of the country. Well, last year the U.S. Scientists tell us that it is just a matter of time until another superquake hits the region, and personally I am one of the millions of Americans that believe that we will eventually see a New Madrid earthquake that will divide the United States in half. What everyone can agree on is that there is an area of significant geological weakness under the New Madrid fault zone. And indeed, there have been some awesome earthquakes in this region throughout history.
Inuit Elders Issue Warning To NASA And The World "Earth Has Shifted" December 5, 2014 By Susan Duclos The Inuits are indigenous people that inhabit the arctic regions of Canada, the United States and Greenland and throughout history their very lives have been dependent on being able to correctly forecast weather.... and they are warning NASA and the world that global warming isn't the cause of what we are seeing with extreme weather, earthquakes and other events. The earth has shifted, tilted or as they put it, "wobbled" to the north and they all agree "Their sky has changed!" The elders maintain the Sun doesn't rise were it used to, they have longer day light to hunt and the Sun is higher than it used to be and warms up quicker than before. The stars the Sun and the Moon have all changed affecting the temperature, even affecting the way the wind blows, it is becoming increasingly hard to predict the weather, something that is a must on the Arctic. The elders all agree, they believe the Earth has shifted, wobbled or tilted to the North.
