USA to close many embassies and consulates around the world - for several days - beginning this Sunday over "security fears" ~ link ~ Strange!
Harf did not say how many facilities would close or in what region. She added that the missions may remain closed for additional days.
The American official did not say what threat has led the State Department to adopt such a measure.
Two weeks ago the Earth almost had a modern day Carrington-event ~ link ~ If this had been directed at Earth, instead of at space, you would NOT be reading this as your electric grid would have been fried and we would be back in the early 1800s in terms of most technology. We would have been facing mass starvation and the greatest crisis the human race has faced since the last Ice Age. Stirling
Carrington Class: "The World Escaped an EMP Catastrophe" ~ link ~ Do keep in mind that the Sun has gone somewhat crazy as of late and this is why we are having so much volcanic activity. That means that we could see one or more additional Clarrington Class solar outbursts in the near future, and one or more of these could be directed at Earth. Stirling

40 Killed in ammunition depot blast in Syria City of Homs - with video ~ link ~ At least 40 people have been killed and 120 others wounded in explosions at an ammunition depot in Syria’s western city of Homs, a Syrian opposition group says.

NSA paid UK spy agency $150 million in secret funds - new leak ~ link ~ The US Constitution requires that Congress pass legislation authorizing expenditures of all money from the US Treasury...did this happen, and if not, WHY NOT. Did the British Parliament authorize the receipt of these funds and the use of these funds??? This could bring down the British Government and perhaps even the Obama Administration. Time will tell if this becomes a major Watergate-level event or not. Stirling
The NSA has made hush-hush payments of at least $150 million to Britain’s GCHQ spying agency over the past three years to influence British intelligence gathering operations. The payouts were revealed in new Snowden leaks published by The Guardian.
The documents illustrate that the NSA expects the UK’s Government Communications Headquarters, known as GCHQ, to act in its interest, expecting a return on the investment, The Guardian said Thursday.

Guardian news paper reveals wider Internet surveillance ~ link ~ Where is all of this headed??? Stirling
Climate change is 'strongly linked' to conflict and violence across the world, with even minor variations affecting behavior ~ link ~ I am reminded of an article that I read almost 30 years ago that documented an unusual climatic pattern in the Pacific from 1938 to early 1946, roughly the time period of the Japanese war in China and World War II.

How the Universe works ~ link ~ Scientists have discovered that our solar system is very unique. Earth is located in a star system that is by no means the norm in space. As a matter of fact, our solar system appears to be the exception. A stunning exception, in the way it’s laid out to actually foster the very conditions on Earth which makes life possible. In the universe at large, chaos, explosions, and mind-bending collisions between massive celestial bodies appear to be commonplace. After you watch this video, you may never see our little blue planet quite the same again.
