info from lookner chat

First, Putin will take out all NATO bases and aircraft carriers in
Europe with nuclear missiles. Then the US can decide for itself
whether they want to atomize each other's core countries.

from lookner chat

==================

however ... if putin nukes europe he could get a faceful of radiation
in russia ... but maybe he dont care at all ... maybe its a totally
'suicide by cop' play

Re: Donald Trump Coronavirus Task Force Briefing April 7

https://www.rev.com/blog/transcripts/donald-trump-coronavirus-task-force-briefing-april-7

==================

Speaker 1: (26:08)
Thank you, sir. Did you see these memos that are reportedly Peter
Navarro wrote back in January. When did you see them and how does
these memos sort of square with what you've often said that nobody
could have predicted this? It sounds like he was predicting.

I didn't see them, but I heard he wrote some memos talking about
pandemic. I didn't see them. I didn't look for them either, but that
was about the same time as I felt that we should do it. That was about
the same time that I closed it down. I asked him about it just a
little while ago because I read something about a memo. I said, "Did
you do a memo?" I didn't look for… I didn't see it. I didn't ask him
to show it to me. He said, "Yes. I talked about the possibility of a
pandemic." Nobody said it's going to happen, but there is a
possibility. There always has been a possibility, but people wouldn't
talk about it. But it was right about the time that I closed it down.
And interestingly, the World Health Organization was not in favor of
us closing it down. And- ....

====================

Well, you're not going to lose millions of lives, but you'll lose
plenty of money. But I couldn't have done it any better because it was
about the same time, and I closed it down to China.

trump didnt see memos from navarro !!!!!!!

About 25% of the EU’s energy consumption comes from natural gas

https://www.cnbc.com/2022/02/24/why-europe-depends-on-russia-for-natural-gas.html

About 25% of the EU's energy consumption comes from natural gas,
according to the Directorate-General for Energy for the EU. Oil and
petroleum (32%), renewable energy and biofuels (18%), and solid fossil
fuels (11%) make up the rest.

40% of the natural gas comes from Russia

=====================

so if Russia cuts all gas to the EU ... the EU would have a 12% energy gap

something tells me they can take a 12% hit without too much trouble
.... especially since winter is coming to an end

Oxidative stress and myocarditis

PMID: 26696256 DOI: 10.2174/1381612822666151222160559

Abstract

Reactive oxygen species (ROS) such as superoxide anion and hydrogen
peroxide are produced highly in myocarditis. ROS, which not only act
as effectors for pathogen killing but also mediate signal transduction
in the stress responsive pathways, are closely related with both
innate and adaptive immunity. On the other hand, oxidative stress
overwhelming the capacity of anti-oxidative system generated in severe
inflammation has been suggested to damage tissues and exacerbate
inflammation. Oxidative stress worsens the autoimmunological process
of myocarditis, and suppression of the anti-oxidative system and
long-lasting oxidative stress could be one of the pathological
mechanisms of cardiac remodeling leading to inflammatory
cardiomyopathy. Oxidative stress is considered to be one of the
promising treatment targets of myocarditis. Evidences of
anti-oxidative treatments in myocarditis have not been fully
established. Basic strategies of anti-oxidative treatments include
inhibition of ROS production, activation of anti-oxidative enzymes and
elimination of generated free radicals. ROS are produced by
mitochondrial respiratory chain reactions and enzymes including NADPH
oxidases, cyclooxygenase, and xanthine oxidase. Other systems involved
in inflammation and stress response, such as NF-κB, Nrf2/Keap1, and
neurohumoral factors also influence oxidative stress in myocarditis.
The efficacy of anti-oxidative treatments could also depend on the
etiology and the phases of myocarditis. We review in this article the
pathological significance of ROS and oxidative stress, and the
potential anti-oxidative treatments in myocarditis.

clearly 1 guy in stack had long antenna

https://www.wbur.org/news/2021/01/15/capitol-riot-military-police

right there in that very first photo that shows

1/6 capitol oathkeepers

if all of those guys were talking to each other on uhf portable radios
on a simplex channel ... and 1 person patched those comms onto the
zello channel .. then the feds probably have EVERY SINGLE WORD that
they said

that radio with the long antenna might have been the radio that was
used to hook the UHF simplex channel to the Zello channel

also ... they could have used a cellphone to patch the uhf channel to
the zello channel

would have been the best radio watching job ever done ... better than
what 99.99999999% of the FDs in the USA can do

note ... the UHF portable radios might have a range of 1 floor or 1
room in the capitol ... or maybe 1 to 10 blocks in the city

the hard part would be getting those short range comms hooked back
into the cellular network

there would be a couple of ways to do it ... use a high power UHF
radio or cellphone or have a receiver site in the vicinty

ratfucker stone throws oathkeepers under bus

https://www.lawfareblog.com/conspirators-proud-boys-and-oath-keepers-jan-6

As it happened, Stone did not attend any rallies on Jan. 6. Last month
he told Fox News's Tucker Carlson in an interview, "I had a feeling,
an intuition. I just did not want to go. I think that God was giving
me a signal."

Asked by Vice News about his role in the events of Jan. 6, Stone
denied any responsibility and added: "Since I never left my hotel room
at all on January 6, and since I was not at the Capitol and know
nothing about the events there, I urge you to be very, very careful."
When the House Select Committee attempted to depose Stone last month,
he invoked his Fifth Amendment rights against self-incrimination.

oathkeeper comsec

from https://www.lawfareblog.com/conspirators-proud-boys-and-oath-keepers-jan-6

Oath Keeper Hackett became particularly meticulous about secrecy
during this period, according to prosecutors. When he used the Oath
Keeper GoToMeeting channels, he'd sign in—under his Ahab
pseudonym—through a virtual private network (VPN). Instead of placing
calls or texts through his ordinary carrier, AT&T/TracFone, he used an
app on his iPhone called TextMe. He then associated his Signal account
with his TextMe phone number, rather than his AT&T number. His TextMe
account was, in turn, registered to his encrypted Protonmail email
address, which was listed under a false name, John Willow.

2016 hazard mitigation plan for middlesex county

==================

In Middlesex County there are three main rail lines that travel
through the county. The three rail lines include the North Jersey
Coast Line, the Northeast Corridor Line, and the Raritan Valley Line.
Train movements associated with Bakken crude oil transportation have
not been made public in New Jersey. Trains pass through Bergen,
Camden, Mercer, Middlesex, Gloucester, Warren, Union and Hunterdon
Counties on the freight rail lines. It is known that trains carrying
Bakken oil cross New Jersey each week, entering the state in Bergen
County, continuing through Central New Jersey en route to
Pennsylvania. Train movements associated with Bakken crude oil
transportation have not been made public in New Jersey.

Processing of the crude in New Jersey is known to be underway in
Linden at the Phillips 66 facility, in Gloucester County at the PBF
Energy facility in Paulsboro, and at a facility in Middlesex County in
Perth Amboy (Buckeye Partners LP). These cars pass through the County
at unknown times and days and carry an unquantifiable risk associated
with them

various volunteers. Eventually each firefighter was equipped with a
home alarm receiver. These units gradually gave way to the present use

interesting

bottom line ... calfire provides most of the staffing for the county FD

Madera County gives the state prison an engine ... in exchange, the
prison staffs the engine for free and serves the nearby areas

have pay to spray agreement with Firebaugh FD in ?Fresno? County ...
actually its $250 per call .. all risks

whats the new station?

calfire REQUIRES minimum of 2 people on Amador engines in winter

California set new wildfire standards ... or something

https://ktla.com/news/california/california-sets-new-home-standards-to-lower-fire-risk-including-fire-resistant-roofs/

I am not sure what standards were actually set ... seems more like
suggestions that fire insurance companies should offer discounts for
... like cleaning off a little more vegetation around homes ... seems
like a whole lot of nothing

maybe it would be a good idea to equip all calfire engines and oes
engines with barricade gel ... whenever they arrive at a fire they can
foam down homes that will be hit by the fire .... maybe ALL engines
should get Barricade foam ... because none of these changes will be
implemented before this summer ,,, and even if they are implemented, i
does not seem that they will accomplish much

lets see if they lose 50,000 homes in 2022 ... there are still huge
areas of los angeles and san diego that can burn ... one bad wind
event on a hot day and its all over for hem ... just like the woolsey
fire

weirdest grah from cdc

https://covid.cdc.gov/covid-data-tracker/#trends_dailydeaths

The blue bars show daily deaths. The red line is the 7-day moving
average of deaths.

============

think about what this graph really shows

since death reporting is so abysmally bad ... we just add up the total
of new reports that we receive and average them over 7 days ... we
dont even bother to look at the death certificates to see what date of
death is listed on the document

or some such

================

but we can see that there have been peaks and valleys ... July 2021
was a valley ..... Feb 2021 was a peak

really dumb .. has everyone forgotten parnell AZ already?

maybe should have 155.34 + 155.475 + 154.28 in all radios also

how many channels does the average wildland firefighter need? 1 to
talk to his commander and 1 or 2 life and death emergency channels ...
one of which should definitely be 168.625 because every aircraft has
a separate receiver on that channel

$330,000 each

"donated" by county to local FDs ... seek to get $150,000 in
reimbursements / rebates on new engines ... ? FROM WHO ?

county population is 50,000 ... half live in city of starkville

=================

I am not sure of the exact financing arrangements but I think that
things work this way ...

Starkville city taxes fund the starkville fd

county taxes fund the other stations in the county ... lets call them
the 'rural stations' ... the county seems to own all of the rural
fire stations

if you look at the county fire coordinator webpage you will see 7
local fire chiefs listed ... there are 14 rural stations with 21
engines

county volunteer firefighters are not paid but they do receive
reimbursements for expenses ... lol

maben and sturgis are small cities but they are considered rural
stations ... both maben and sturgis have their own fire chiefs ...
maben has 3 stations .... sturgis has 2 stations

radio wise ... I suspect they are all on the same radio system and all
are dispatched by county 911

ergo ... this is a county fd .... or 99% of a county fd ... they just
dont have a county fire chief ... but they do have a county fire
coordinator

for iso ratings ... starkville and univ of ms is class 3 ... there are
4 fire classification districts that are 5 and 7 ... anyone over 4
miles from fire station is class 10 ... not sure why 4 miles ...
everywhere else in USA it is 5 miles ... not sure why there are 4
classification districts

it would all be much simpler on paper if there was 1 county fd under 1
county fire chief all funded by county taxes

not sure why the new engines are 491 and 791
