The snow-covered colossus last erupted in the reign of Catherine the Great but in recent days has spewed out a 60-mile (100km) long ash plume that was visible from space. Scientists on the Kamchatka peninsula in the far east of Russia had not predicted 7,103ft Kambalny volcano suddenly emerging from hibernation. The eruption from Kambalny was seen from space and captured by Nasa's Terra satellite. The satellite image captured a 60-mile (100km) long ash plume that was spewed out by the active volcano. Olga Girina, head of the Kamchatka Volcanic Eruption Response Team (KVERT), said: 'This is the first serious volcanic event at Kambalny in the modern history of scientific observations. 'According to researchers, a strong eruption occurred 600 years ago. 'There is information about its increased activity some 250 years ago. 'We are keeping a close look at the volcano. It is difficult to say how the event will unfold.' The first blast came on Saturday, delighting staff at the remote Kronotsky Nature Reserve.

Wow! Pretty amazing. From Luz de Maria: (more about Italy, Ecuador, Mexico.....but that the most fearful ones will "announce" coming eruptions) volcanoes that lay dormant awaken; Our Blessed Virgin Mary 02.28.2016 The volcanoes awaken and you ignore it. When the great volcanoes of the world erupt with the force they have contained and raze entire populations bringing the darkness of the night closer, it will be then that man will be able to experience some respect for the warnings Heaven has sent. Our Lord Jesus Christ 02.18.2016 Pray, My children; the awakening of volcanoes will be astonishing for you. Our Lord Jesus Christ 09.27.2015 The volcanoes will wake up with even more power and will become a scourge for the Peoples. Our Lord Jesus Christ 09.13.2015 The land trembles and the volcanoes will awaken again. Our Blessed Virgin Mary 06.15.2015 Beloved children, do not be afraid of earthquakes, or volcanoes, or winds that will lash, or cold, or heat. Be afraid of offending My Son and be afraid of not repenting. Our Lord Jesus Christ 05.23.2015 The volcanoes will continue to be activated one after the other, and the most feared ones will announce to man that they will soon erupt. Our Blessed Virgin Mary 04.14.2014 Children, already the Earth is exhausted, constantly receiving humanity’s sin and grave offenses, and it is sick because of man; it vomits man’s sin through volcanoes, More: http://www.revelacionesmarianas.com/Volcanoes.html And one more of the latest as yet to be translated: 3/23/17 Pray My children, the depth of the earth has opened and from it will emanate what the man of this generation has not proven: purification. ================================================================ Mt. Etna: While the volcano in its present form does little to disrupt the surrounding region, it has a long and even mythological history. Mentions of Mount Etna have been recorded as early as 425 B.C. Ancient Roman records indicate a large eruption occurred in 122 B.C. that blocked out the sun for several days. http://news.nationalgeographic.com/2017/03/mount-etna-volcano-eruption-sicily/
RE: THE WARNING.....from Mar. 31, 2017 as yet to be translated message to Luz de Maria: THE INSTANT IN WHICH THEY WILL BE EXAMINED BY THE SAME LOVE YOU HAVE DELIVERED AND POSSESSED, IS COMING. They will look, they will live, they will suffer for their bad deeds, and the lament will be strong. However great and unthinkable sins are committed, you walk with the Divine imprint, therefore I call you to repentance to save the soul. Beloved ones, loneliness will invade them and will keep them to the bone, they will live the true solitude, which they have never experienced before, they will examine themselves. The pain for every offense committed against the Divine Will will live it as if you were doing it at that very moment, with no one to defend you and yourselves. My Heart hurts before My children. After the Warning has passed, some will rage against God and cruelty will be greater toward My children. (1) Man will be astonished to look at Heaven and look at the fire that comes close to the Earth, only that man does not know that fire will then be that which reaches the soul and the conscience of every human being, burning sin with relentless fire. He will feel no more resisting. The heart of man will be in constant spiritual fatigue, do not yearn to fill it with the Word of My Son or mine.
At least 10 killed and over thirty wounded in two bomb blasts in the St. Petersburg, Russia subway. Lord have mercy on us.
ETA Thanks for this. Have you clarification for The pain for every offense committed against the Divine Will will live it as if you were doing it at that very moment, with no one to defend you and yourselves. & The heart of man will be in constant spiritual fatigue, do not yearn to fill it with the Word of My Son or mine. I suspect that it does not mean one lives in that state? The second one must be missing the word 'who' after fatigue. God Bless
As I said this is a very rough translation. Once it's properly translated it will probably give a better understanding. For right now though I believe that it melds with other descriptions of what each individual will experience during their own revelation to themselves at the time of the Warning. They will not only see the actions of their lives but will experience the seriousness of each action (or lack thereof) as seen from the "other side".... its effect especially on the good and perfect Will of God and how that has effected the whole history of the world. And how it effected God Himself in Christ as He experienced our sins. And each will have to accept this "correction" as given in Truth to them with no place to run or no excuse to be given. So it will be painful to accept without being able to rationalize our behavior or make excuses in order not to accept the guilt. But then such experience is covered in His Mercy at the same time that such Truth is given to us to be accepted or not. If people have been truly sorry and have realized the gravity of their sins and have had them forgiven prior to the Warning then they will not have the same depth of "correction" experience necessary at the time of the Warning. And I think you are correct about the second's meaning.
Cyborgs at work: employees getting implanted with microchips .............. "The biggest benefit I think is convenience," said Patrick Mesterton, co-founder and CEO of Epicenter. As a demonstration, he unlocks a door by merely waving near it. "It basically replaces a lot of things you have, other communication devices, whether it be credit cards or keys." .................... So far, Epicenter's group of cyborgs doesn't seem too concerned. "People ask me; 'Are you chipped?' and I say; 'Yes, why not,'" said Fredric Kaijser, 47, the chief experience officer at Epicenter. "And they all get excited about privacy issues and what that means and so forth. And for me it's just a matter of I like to try new things and just see it as more of an enabler and what that would bring into the future." The implants have become so popular that Epicenter workers stage monthly events where attendees have the option of being "chipped" for free. That means visits from self-described "body hacker" Jowan Osterlund from Biohax Sweden who performs the "operation." He injects the implants — using pre-loaded syringes — into the fleshy area of the hand, just next to the thumb. The process lasts a few seconds, and more often than not there are no screams and barely a drop of blood. "The next step for electronics is to move into the body," he says. Sandra Haglof, 25, who works for Eventomatic, an events company that works with Epicenter, has had three piercings before, and her left hand barely shakes as Osterlund injects the small chip. "I want to be part of the future," she laughs. http://www.sfgate.com/business/tech...employees-getting-implanted-with-11046009.php
The headline writer is being sensationalist. This doesn't turn you into a cyborg any more than my cats are now cyborgs because they have had their own ID chips injected. There's no connection to the neural system, it's not flooding your bloodstream with nanobots. When I worked in a high security facility, it would have been GREAT to not have to worry about forgetting my badge and having to rely on friends to violate the security rules letting me in without it.
I see the quest for "convenience" with such things as "chips" for whatever purpose equates with less and less personal responsibility and obviously then control. That attitude usually evolves into more and more "ah, what could it hurt" later when something similar DOES actually rise to the height of the head!!
HOMO DEUS How upgrading humans will become the next billion-dollar industry For all of humanity’s scientific, economic and artistic achievements, we have neglected this ultimate self-improvement project, Harari said. Our bodies and brains, after all, still run on the same hardware and software that evolved some 200,000 years ago. http://www.marketwatch.com/story/ho...e-the-next-billion-dollar-industry-2017-04-03
Harari would be part of what Nassim Nicholas Talleb has described as the 'Intellectual-yet-Idiot' class. This extraordinary hubris and vastly exaggerated faith in the capabilities of science and technology seems to be growing in parallel with the documented increase in the corruption of science. A recent survey claims that less than 1% of contemporary published scientific research is properly experimentally verified, with the great bulk of it providing results to support a pre-existing agenda. The reality is that almost nothing is known about how the human brain works or what consciousness is, although there is some doubt whether the brains of the likes of Harari work as well as others. And maybe he's not so slow if he can sell a lot of books to gullible people.
I am not a huge fan of the nation but they have a valid point about what has become acceptable to the majority of Americans and what that means for the future. https://www.thenation.com/article/cia-didnt-just-torture-it-experimented-human-beings/ The CIA Didn’t Just Torture, It Experimented on Human Beings Reframing the CIA’s interrogation techniques as a violation of scientific and medical ethics may be the best way to achieve accountability. By Lisa Hajjar Human experimentation was a core feature of the CIA’s torture program. The experimental nature of the interrogation and detention techniques is clearly evident in the Senate Intelligence Committee’s executive summary of its investigative report, despite redactions (insisted upon by the CIA) to obfuscate the locations of these laboratories of cruel science and the identities of perpetrators. At the helm of this human experimentation project were two psychologists hired by the CIA, James Mitchell and Bruce Jessen. They designed interrogation and detention protocols that they and others applied to people imprisoned in the agency’s secret “black sites.” In its response to the Senate report, the CIA justified its decision to hire the duo: “We believe their expertise was so unique that we would have been derelict had we not sought them out when it became clear that CIA would be heading into the uncharted territory of the program.” Mitchell and Jessen’s qualifications did not include interrogation experience, specialized knowledge about Al Qaeda or relevant cultural or linguistic knowledge. What they had was Air Force experience in studying the effects of torture on American prisoners of war, as well as a curiosity about whether theories of “learned helplessness” derived from experiments on dogs might work on human enemies. To implement those theories, Mitchell and Jessen oversaw or personally engaged in techniques intended to produce “debility, disorientation and dread.” Their “theory” had a particular means-ends relationship that is not well understood, as Mitchell testily explained in an interview on Vice News: “The point of the bad cop is to get the bad guy to talk to the good cop.” In other words, “enhanced interrogation techniques” (the Bush administration’s euphemism for torture) do not themselves produce useful information; rather, they produce the condition of total submission that will facilitate extraction of actionable intelligence. Mitchell, like former CIA Director Michael Hayden and others who have defended the torture program, argues that a fundamental error in the Senate report is the elision of means (waterboarding, “rectal rehydration,” weeks or months of nakedness in total darkness and isolation, and other techniques intended to break prisoners) and ends—manufactured compliance, which, the defenders claim, enabled the collection of abundant intelligence that kept Americans safe. (That claim is amply and authoritatively contradicted in the report.) As Americans from the Beltway to the heartland debate—again—the legality and efficacy of “enhanced interrogation,” we are reminded that “torture” has lost its stigma as morally reprehensible and criminal behavior. That was evident in the 2012 GOP presidential primary, when more than half of the candidates vowed to bring back waterboarding, and it is on full display now. On Meet the Press, for example, former Vice President Dick Cheney, who functionally topped the national security decision-making hierarchy during the Bush years, announced that he “would do it again in a minute.” No one has been held accountable for torture, beyond a handful of prosecutions of low-level troops and contractors. Indeed, impunity has been virtually guaranteed as a result of various Faustian bargains, which include “golden shield” legal memos written by government lawyers for the CIA; ex post facto immunity for war crimes that Congress inserted in the 2006 Military Commissions Act; classification and secrecy that still shrouds the torture program, as is apparent in the Senate report’s redactions; and the “look forward, not backward” position that President Obama has maintained through every wave of public revelations since 2009. An American majority, it seems, has come to accept the legacy of torture. Human experimentation, in contrast, has not been politically refashioned into a legitimate or justifiable enterprise. Therefore, it would behoove us to appreciate the fact that the architects and implementers of black-site torments were authorized at the highest levels of the White House and CIA to experiment on human beings. Reading the report through this lens casts a different light on questions of accountability and impunity. The “war on terror” is not the CIA’s first venture into human experimentation. At the dawn of the Cold War, German scientists and doctors with Nazi records of human experimentation were given new identities and brought to the United States under Operation Paperclip. During the Korean War, alarmed by the shocking rapidity of American POWs’ breakdowns and indoctrination by their communist captors, the CIA began investing in mind-control research. In 1953, the CIA established the MK-ULTRA program, whose earliest phase involved hypnosis, electroshock and hallucinogenic drugs. The program evolved into experiments in psychological torture that adapted elements of Soviet and Chinese models, including longtime standing, protracted isolation, sleep deprivation and humiliation. Those lessons soon became an applied “science” in the Cold War. During the Vietnam War, the CIA developed the Phoenix program, which combined psychological torture with brutal interrogations, human experimentation and extrajudicial executions. In 1963, the CIA produced a manual titled “Kubark Counterintelligence Interrogation” to guide agents in the art of extracting information from “resistant” sources by combining techniques to produce “debility, disorientation and dread.” Like the communists, the CIA largely eschewed tactics that violently target the body in favor of those that target the mind by systematically attacking all human senses in order to produce the desired state of compliance. The Phoenix program model was incorporated into the curriculum of the School of the Americas, and an updated version of the Kubark guide, produced in 1983 and titled “Human Resource Exploitation Manual,” was disseminated to the intelligence services of right-wing regimes in Latin America and Southeast Asia during the global “war on communism.” In the mid-1980s, CIA practices became the subject of congressional investigations into US-supported atrocities in Central America. Both manuals became public in 1997 as a result of Freedom of Information Act litigation by The Baltimore Sun. That would have seemed like a “never again” moment. But here we are again. This brings us back to Mitchell and Jessen. Because of their experience as trainers in the military’s Survival, Evasion, Resistance, Escape (SERE) program, after 9/11 they were contacted by high-ranking Pentagon officials and, later, by lawyers who wanted to know whether some of those SERE techniques could be reverse-engineered to get terrorism suspects to talk. The road from abstract hypotheticals (can SERE be reverse-engineered?) to the authorized use of waterboarding and confinement boxes runs straight into the terrain of human experimentation. On April 15, 2002, Mitchell and Jessen arrived at a black site in Thailand to supervise the interrogation of Abu Zubaydah, the first “high-value detainee” captured by the CIA. By July, Mitchell proposed more coercive techniques to CIA headquarters, and many of these were approved in late July. From then until the program was dry-docked in 2008, at least thirty-eight people were subjected to psychological and physical torments, and the results were methodically documented and analyzed. That is the textbook definition of human experimentation. My point is not to minimize the illegality of torture or the legal imperatives to pursue accountability for perpetrators. Rather, because the concept of torture has been so muddled and disputed, I suggest that accountability would be more publicly palatable if we reframed the CIA’s program as one of human experimentation. If we did so, it would be more difficult to laud or excuse perpetrators as “patriots” who “acted in good faith.” Although torture has become a Rorschach test among political elites playing to public opinion on the Sunday morning talk shows, human experimentation has no such community of advocates and apologists.

Praying our NZ friends are okay. New Zealand towns hit by 'once in 500-year flood' as storm system sweeps in State of emergency declared in parts of North Island after rivers burst banks amid extreme winds brought by tail-end of ex-cyclone Debbie Thursday 6 April 2017 00.59 EDT Last modified on Thursday 6 April 2017 17.00 EDT A “once in 500-year” flood is swallowing up large parts of the east coast of New Zealand, as the tail-end of ex-cyclone Debbie sweeps east after devastating large parts of Australia. States of emergency have been declared in numerous regions in the North Island, after rivers burst their banks following two days of heavy rain and gale-force winds. Thousands of people have been evacuated in the Bay of Plenty, on the east coast of the North Island, and welfare centres established to feed and house those whose homes are now under water. The town of Edgecumbe appears to be the worst affected, with brown water up to two metres high engulfing the town, after the Rangitaiki river burst its banks on Thursday morning. Children being evacuated from flooded Edgecombe, New Zealand, after ex-cyclone Debbie passed through. Photograph: Tautini Hahipen Whakatane mayor Tony Bonne told Radio New Zealand the flood was a “once in 500-year” event. “There is danger, with the huge volumes of water coming down the river, we have grave concerns for the town of Edgecumbe,” he said. “This has all happened really quickly ... there is a wall of water going through Edgecumbe at the moment.” Tractors, farm trucks and speed boats were being used to evacuate 2,000 residents from the stricken town, as flood water rose so quickly normal vehicles were unable to get in or out. Deeana Tubb told the New Zealand Herald the water in Edgecumbe was already waist-deep this morning, with the river not expected to peak till mid afternoon Thursday. “I went right through the cordons at Matata – nothing was stopping me getting to my babies,” she said. “When I got home the water was already waist-deep in the streets. I managed to get some valuable documents out of the house and everyone else and we headed to Awakeri.” “Now it looks like we’re about to lose everything.” The New Zealand Defence Force and Red Cross has arrived to provide relief and assistance to local authorities, who have been working non-stop for days, sandbagging properties and key infrastructure, and clearing debris from roads to make way for emergency vehicles. Power outages, major landslides and roads are closed right across the North Island, including in Auckland, which received a month’s worth of rain in 24 hours, and where many roads remain closed due to surface flooding. Numerous flights out of Wellington, Auckland and regional North Island centres have also been delayed or diverted due to the conditions, with passengers bunking down in the airport after being unable to find accommodation in the city. A flooded street in Edgecumbe on Thursday. Photograph: Tautini Hahipene The South Island east coast town of Kaikoura, which is still recovering from November’s earthquake, has once again been cut off, after five mud and rock slides on State Highway One blocked access to the coastal town. Drivers across the South Island are being asked to take care, with surface flooding, fallen trees and landslips widely reported. Canterbury and Christchurch in the South Island were expected to bear the brunt of ex-cyclone Debbie, with rain expected to ease in the North Island later on Thursday.
We just launched Tomahawk missiles at at least 1 base with 2 storage areas (maybe more bases) in Syria in order to prevent Syria from releasing more of the chemical attacks on their people. Trying to avoid Russian casualties due to them being present in Syria and why the use of such a limited type military strike. So far just a signal to Russians and Assad that there is a different "sheriff" in the U.S. Russia would probably give up Assad but not the Syrian infrastructure that they are using for their Middle East presence. Our own present forces need protection....surrounded by Russian, Syrian and Iranian forces joined with opposing goals. Hopefully this won't fulfill the Jewish boy, Natan's, NDE messages about U.S./Russia fighting first before whole world gradually gets into his broader war. Will Putin challenge us in other parts of world now, moving further into his surrounding region and threatening EU?
http://mobile.reuters.com/article/newsOne/idUSKBN179208 April 7, 2017 Three killed as truck drives into crowd in Swedish capital: police Three people were killed when a truck drove into a crowd on a shopping street and crashed into a department store in central Stockholm on Friday, police said. Prime Minister Stefan Lofven said everything indicated the crash was a terrorist attack, according to the national news agency TT. Part of central Stockholm was cordoned off and the area was evacuated. Large numbers of police and emergency services were at the scene. "I saw at least three dead, but probably more," Radio Sweden reporter Martin Svenningsen said. TT reported that police confirmed the three deaths. A Reuters witness saw a number of body-like forms covered by blankets at the scene of the incident. Several attacks in which trucks or cars have driven into crowds have taken place in Europe in the past year. Al Qaeda in 2010 urged its followers to use trucks as a weapon. In London on March 22 this year, a man in a car plowed into pedestrians on Westminster Bridge, killing four, and then stabbed a policeman to death before being shot by police. Islamic State claimed responsibility for both an attack in Nice, France, last July, when a truck killed 86 people celebrating Bastille Day, and one in Berlin in December, when a truck smashed through a Christmas market, killing 12 people.
