An immense plume of volcanic ash cast a silent pall over the skies of Northern Europe on Thursday, grounding air traffic across Britain, Scandinavia and elsewhere, halting flights to and from North America, stranding travelers and isolating much of the continent to an extent that was without precedent in recent memory.
The culprit: an Icelandic volcano that could continue spewing grit into the atmosphere for months or years to come.
The material spewed by the volcano consists of fine, sharp-edged particles of rock and glass, most of them ranging in size from about one-twelfth of an inch in diameter down to about 1/25,000th of an inch, and they are capable of circulating in the upper atmosphere for months. If they are inhaled by humans or animals, they can damage air passages. If they are sucked in by a jet engine, they can shut the engine down.
The most abundant gas typically released into the atmosphere from volcanic systems is water vapor (H20), followed by carbon dioxide (C02) and sulfur dioxide (S02).
All three can contribute to climate change. Although the level of carbon dioxide (C02) is only about a tenth of that of human any normal year nowadays, over the millennia it's no contest. Also certain years or when the larger ones erupt they can reach or maybe even surpass human activity.
I will not go into all the other gases or what impact this has on life on the planet. Partly because no-one really knows and partly because that’s not my level of expertise.
What we can be sure about however is that emission like this Icelandic one is, according to ‘the green’ tree-hugging freaks, the same as murder. Also since a proposal have been put forward to declare mass destruction of ecosystems ("ecocide") a crime on par with genocide, it raises a lot of questions about how we should handle volcanoes.
Is the Icelandic volcano(s) liable for murder, "ecocide" and can be sued for the economic cost of delayed flights?
I also noticed that the heat melted the surrounding ice and flows of meltwater started coming off the glacier. A glacier melting eh? How horrific, that has never happened before and should also render lots of sleepless nights to the doomsayers within the ‘green’ asylum. It also caused flodding, another scary thing that ONLY comes from manmade global warming.
Someone argued that this is how the ‘greens’ what our future to look – no air travel. But the small relief the environment might have from this pause cannot even compare to the volcano and its activity. It would have been better, in the eyes of the righteous ‘greens’, to have planes in the air without the volcano.
So again, the question remains; is the Icelandic volcano(s) liable for murder, "ecocide" and can be sued for the economic cost of delayed flights?

One more impossibility
The median price paid for a California home in March jumped 14.3% compared with the same month last year. The San Francisco Bay Area sees a 31% median-price gain.
The median was up 9.7% to $329,000 in Los Angeles County and up 12.2% to $432,000 in Orange County.
Isn’t this nice? Unemployment in California is officially 12% (real number over 20%) and the state is close to defaulting. Think Greece.
And with this in mind home prices jumps that much? This isn’t possible folks. So what happened?
About 40.5% of the previously owned homes sold in March were foreclosures… Oh, how interesting. And as we all know, banks are buying housing from themselves in order to keep prices up. This cannot explain the whole increase; neither can inflation that is starting to gain momentum.
This cannot either, but it is fun to watch:

What trickery is this?
Sorry I’ve been absent of late. Been reading up on history, checking the financial numbers and trying to figure out what is actually going on. Also been planning for yet another move - to my sixth country in as many years, hopefully more permanent this time. Not really the desolate island with bananas I was looking for, but a step in the right direction.
Anyway, I cannot really pin-point each and every scam out there, but the math doesn’t lie and so something isn’t right in the state of the world.
As I have said before on many occasions the markets crashed last year, just as I predicted many years ago, but I thought they would only be able to cover it up until about now and then it would be all downhill. The first time I said the real crash would happen during the spring of 2010 I think was back in 2000, and I’ve kept to it ever since.
Granted, when looking at this outcome several years ago, I didn’t know what schemes they would pull out of their hats, so this unprecedented spending-spree and very hot-going printing presses didn’t really occur to me. Well, they did, but not at this level.
But even factoring in such nightmarish schemes, it shouldn’t matter; in fact it should only make things much worse and increase the depression into the giant Tsunami that it also have become. So how are they covering this up and for how long can it last? And even more importantly; why are the numbers all wrong and who is behind all the lying and deceit?
You see the math tells us that things have never been this bad. Never.
The correlation of trade surpluses and trade deficits between countries doesn’t match up. Strange sudden spikes on markets that should be going down. Gold that doesn’t exist is getting sold in massive amounts to secret buyers. Weird consumer loan blips. Banks are buying housing from themselves to keep prices up. Governments are buying treasuries from each other (even more so from themselves) in order to cover up that the debt market is overcrowded. Inflation (the real one) is eating into people’s purchasing power but somehow the borrowing and spending continues.
With so many countries not only owing 100% or more of GDP in debt, but also have long-term debt-obligations and pensions that is on levels in ratio to GDP on 3-400% or more (UK is close to 400% in total debt, excluded private and business debt). Stock markets are highly overvalued but are still continuing upwards.
I could go on for a long time, but to summarize, things have never looked worse than they do right now. The fundamentals are horrific; our producing power is continuing down, the debt mountain is going for the moon. It should be crashing and burning right now. But it isn’t. And since the math and the fundamentals don’t lie, something else is going on here.
There are only two things that can explain deviating numbers and why the world continues onwards.
Firstly governments are in cahoots. They are working together in order to cover up how bad it really is. They do this by buying treasuries from each other, or have their banking pals do it for them. They manipulate trade- and market numbers which they only can do if they do work together. They can keep the market optimistic by using spin-doctors and the faulty numbers they’ve fabricated and by appealing to the feeble minds of the general public. They also use minor crisis’s, like Greece or Iceland, to hide the real problems. While we’re focusing on the, in these circumstances, small problems they are sweeping away whistling jaunty tunes and telling us that there’s nothing to see here. And you don’t need to be a conspiracist to figure out that they use terrorists and wars for the same reason.
Secondly there’s something in the works here that no-one knows about. Call it an alien conspiracy, Illuminati trickery or reptilian cover-ups if you will, but there is probably a more mundane explanation to it. Lately the money flow towards IMF, the lying statistics and the strangeness of sudden spikes point to something big.
Have Japan already crashed? Is Spain being hold up by manipulators? Is the UK real-estate market totally bogus and about to fall apart? Or are they getting together and handing money over to China so the Chinese can buy up everything in sight and “help” the world economy? I don’t know, but there’s something going on.
In the meanwhile the debts continue to be accumulated, the regulatory fascism comes to internet increases each day, and governments are seemingly looking towards Kim Jong Ill for inspiration.
This we do know; the next crash is just around the corner and this time around there’s nothing they can do about it. There’s no more inflating of the bubbles, no more borrowing and the printing press will only create hyperinflation. I am sure they will try it all again with negative interest rates money-piles everywhere and more fictitious borrowing. However, it won’t work. There’s no power left in that sort of Keynesianism.
In Sweden it is clear that neither the government nor the opposition have any clue what is going on. Right now about 150 billion is needed to be saved in the government’s budget, interest rates should be forced up to 7-8% and every state owned business should be sold when there’s still time for it. I do hope, whomever you intend to vote for, that you hold these elected criminals responsible for not doing the right thing. You’ll soon understand why…
They have walked us all off a cliff and handed us an anvil. But before this cartoony end is upon us they will find some scape-goats to blame, more distractions for you to keep an eye on and some new schemes worthy of Stephen King to keep them in power.
If I had to guess, this is the reason why we’re not in a full out depression right now, they are consolidating power and coming up with new trickery before we find out what they have done.
I’ll let you know when I have figured this out. Until then I urge you all to get stocked up and get armed. This is going to be ugly.
Now… we’re did I put that toothbrush?
