TransAsia Flight 235, MH17 and Other 17s

At the beginning of the day, February 4, 2015, 17 people were missing in the crash of TransAsia Flight 235 into a bridge over Taiwan's Keelung River. By the end of the day, the final death toll may be 34 (2x17) people.

Many have compared this real life scene to the one in Knowing (2009). See also, Knowing is a Dark Stargate (2009).

According to Plutarch's Moralia, the Egyptians have a legend that the end of Osiris's life came on the seventeenth of a month, on which day it is quite evident to the eye that the period of the full moon is over. Now, because of this, the Pythagoreans call this day "the Barrier," and utterly abominate this number. For the number seventeen, coming in between the square sixteen and the oblong rectangle eighteen, which, as it happens, are the only plane figures that have their perimeters equal their areas, bars them off from each other and disjoins them, and breaks up the epogdoon by its division into unequal intervals.

Osiris' wife is Isis.

Unlucky number 17
The number 17 is considered unlucky in Italy so most Italian-owned ships avoid it. MSC Cruises doesn't have a cabin 17 or deck 17 on any ships across fleet. Why? The Roman numeral XVII is changed anagrammatically to VIXI, which in Latin translates to "I have lived". In other words: "My life is over". For the same reason you can bet that the Chinese won't be booking any cabins on decks four, or nine. Source.

Here is the number 17 on the X-Files. For much, much more on #17, see "Synchromystism 17."

Valhalla: 2.3

On February 3, 2015, six people were killed when a 10-car Metro-North train packed with commuters from New York City hit a car and caught fire on the railroad tracks in Valhalla, Westchester, New York. At the height of evening rush hour, the incident sparked a fiery crash that's also injured at least 12 people. The train out of Grand Central Terminal was going northbound on the Harlem line when it struck a Jeep Cherokee (that was stopped on the track when the R/R gates came down) at the Commerce Street crossing in Valhalla at about 6:30 p.m. 

Hundreds of passengers were being taken by ambulances and MTA buses to Pleaseantville.

In Norse mythology, Valhalla (from Old Norse Valhöll "hall of the slain") is a majestic, enormous hall located in Asgard, ruled over by the god Odin. Chosen by Odin, half of those who die in combat travel to Valhalla upon death, led by valkyries, while the other half go to the goddess Freyja's field Fólkvangr. In Valhalla, the dead join the masses of those who have died in combat known as Einherjar, as well as various legendary Germanic heroes and kings, as they prepare to aid Odin during the events of Ragnarök. Before the hall stands the golden tree Glasir, and the hall's ceiling is thatched with golden shields. Various creatures live around Valhalla, such as the stag Eikþyrnir and the goat Heiðrún, both described as standing atop Valhalla and consuming the foliage of the tree Læraðr.

Year of the Goat begins on February 15, 2015.

"Walhalla" (1896) by Max Brückner.

The Westchester Real Estate site is not shy about death and their Valhalla: "Valhalla isn’t just where Vikings go when they die; it is where smart central Westchester residents live. Valhalla, NY is a hamlet in the town of Mount Pleasant which is served by the Valhalla School District and punctuated by a quaint downtown, a scenic train station and Kensico Dam. Kensico is one of the largest dams in New York State and is adjacent to downtown Valhalla. Valhalla does indeed have a connection with many great people who have departed, as Kensico Cemetery is the final resting place of such notables as Ayn Rand, Lou Gehrig, Tommy Dorsey, Danny Kaye, and Billie Burke, the Good Witch of the North."

Groundhog Day, Anniversary Syndrome, and the Houston-Brown Drownings

As many of you know, an area of academic research I’ve conducted involves the sociological and historical impact and the mystery of death and dying among humans. I have done work and written books on suicides, suicide prevention, murder-suicide timing, "going postal" events, and school shootings. I have penned obituaries to celebrate life, to avoid dwelling on the type or moment of death, but instead to reinforce the remembering of a person’s entire legacy.

There are well-known but little-discussed syndromes that involve “when” people die that have always intrigued me: the “Anniversary” and the “Birthday” reactions and syndromes, for example.

The film Groundhog Day is a metaphorical journey about the Anniversary Syndrome.

One recent news item highlights the Anniversary Syndrome and how it is a form of the copycat effect. It is often quite evident if the method and timing are reflective of the circumstances of the death being copied.

Bobbi Kristina Brown, the late Whitney Houston's 21-year-old daughter with singer Bobby Brown, was rushed to a hospital in Roswell, Georgia, on January 31, 2015, Saturday morning after her husband and a friend found her in the tub. Her husband Nick Gordon performed CPR.

A police report released on February 2nd said officers responded to the home in reference to a drowning. The narrative of the incident offered no information about the young woman's condition or the circumstances leading to her being found.

Bobbi Kristina Brown is reportedly in an induced coma and has "significantly diminished" brain function.

On February 11, 2012, Whitney Houston was found unconscious in Suite 434 at the Beverly Hilton Hotel, Beverly Hills, California, submerged in the bathtub; she was later pronounced dead. The cause of death was not immediately known. It was later ruled by the coroner to have been an "accidental drowning." Beverly Hills paramedics arrived at approximately 3:30 p.m. and found the singer unresponsive and performed CPR. Houston was pronounced dead at 3:55 p.m. PST. Local police said there were "no obvious signs of criminal intent." On March 22, 2012, the Los Angeles County coroner's office reported the cause of Houston's death was drowning and the "effects of atherosclerotic heart disease and cocaine use." The office stated the amount of cocaine found in Houston's body indicated that she used the substance shortly before her death. Toxicology results revealed additional drugs in her system: Benadryl, Xanax, marijuana and Flexeril. The manner of death was listed as an "accident."

Houston performed "The Star Spangled Banner" at Super Bowl XXV at Tampa Stadium on January 27, 1991.

Whitney Houston's "accidental" bathtub death and her daughter's apparent bathtub drowning both occurred around the same time of year. But more significantly, the two events seemed to have some relationship to being near the dates of 2012's and 2015's NFL Super Bowls.

In 2012, Super Bowl XLVI was played on February 5th. The New York Giants defeated The New England Patriots by a score of 21 to 17. Whitney Houston died on February 11th. The main halftime show performer was Madonna, with M.I.A. and Nicki Minaj.

In 2015, Super Bowl XLIX was played on February 1st. The New England Patriots defeated the Seattle Seahawks by a score of 28 to 24. The main halftime show performer was Katy Perry, with Lenny Kravitz and Missy Elliot.

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Conspiracy videos after Whitney Houston died talked of her being killed by the Illumanti. See here.

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
New conspiracy theories are floating around regarding the new Brown news, such as this one posted on YouTube by a Mr. Cati. BTW, Whitney Houston was 48, not 49, when she died. She would have been 49 on her birthday of August 9, 2012.

But what if it is nothing more than the Anniversary Syndrome?

It is a matter of native folk knowledge that some people appear to wait until a loved one's specific death anniversary, or their own birthday, to die on during those nearby times. Research has proven it has a basis in fact.

Holidays are anniversaries of important events. Holidays and death go hand in hand. Birth dates and death do too.

The notion that there is an anniversary syndrome in which deaths are tied to birthdays or important dates in a person's life has been scientifically studied. The after effects of Post Traumatic Stress events can result in depression or rage linked to the anniversary of any traumatic event such as a death, war, or accident.

This is clearest, perhaps, as the date of death of a loved one approaches. The anniversary of a relative, especially a father or mother, can trigger a Sudden Death (SD), according to research that was presented in March 2008, at the American College of Cardiology’s 57th Annual Scientific Session.

“Sudden death is a major public health problem and is responsible for nearly half of all cardiac deaths,” said Juan Marques, M.D., Central University of Venezuela, and co-investigator of this study. He wrote:

Researchers evaluated a consecutive series of 102 documented sudden death cases of individuals between 37 and 79 years old. Life circumstances that preceded death were investigated. In nearly 70 percent of cases (69 cases), the underlying syndrome was coronary artery disease. In 13 percent of cases (13 cases), SD occurs on the anniversary date of the traumatic event of death of a parent (seven on the anniversary of father’s death, five on the anniversary of mother’s death and one on the anniversary of the death of the mother and father, who died on the same date). Deaths were not related to the loss of any other close family member. Roughly one-third (4 cases) died at a similar age as the family member who died previously....Nearly 80 percent of the patients (10 cases) who died suddenly under the anniversary effect were male. The reason for this is not understood, but may reflect gender differences in response to stressful situations. Source.

Earlier, in 1992, Dr. David P. Phillips, a sociology professor at the University of California in San Diego conducted a study that found that an approaching birthday seems to prolong life in women and precipitate death in men. His study, based on 2,745,149 deaths from natural causes, found that women were more likely to die in the week after their birthdays than in any other week during the year, while men tended to die shortly before their birthdays. It was the first study to show gender differences in so-called anniversary effects: changes in behavior on birthdays, holidays or other personally meaningful occasions.

Birthdays can be either "a deadline or a lifeline," said Phillips. "In our achievement-oriented society, men may find themselves wanting. They don't want to go through another one of these stock-taking periods."

The study was published in the September 1992, Psychosomatic Medicine, the journal of the American Psychosomatic Society, and found 3 percent more deaths than expected among women in the week after a birthday and a slight decline the week before. For men, deaths peaked just before birthdays and showed no rise above normal afterward.

It is true that you can find memorable events that have happened on any date on the calendar, but it is a different matter when the historic incidents are especially significant to the people dying.

Mark Stibich, Ph.D., has this to say about this topic, as it relates to traumatic memories:

There is a commonly held belief that people die more around dates that they associate with loved ones passing or near certain holidays. Some of the statistics prove true – there are more deaths around Christmas (for Westerners) and just after Chinese New Year’s (for Chinese). People seem to be able to time their deaths – extending them slightly to make it to a holiday, birthday or other event.
A recent report in Reuters told of a case in which a woman had a heart attack exactly one week (to the hour) after her father had died. The strangest part is – she was standing at the grave of her sister who had died when she heard the news of her father’s death. Researchers have called this the “anniversary reaction.”
Researchers don’t exactly know what the “anniversary reaction” is or how it might work. What we do know is that thinking positively about the future can add years to your life. So find something to look forward to and be positive about, especially near sad anniversaries. “Anniversary Reaction – Can Memory Trigger Death?”

If this is related to birthdays, where people actually are able to stem the tide of death until they reach their birthdays or important dates, you can see how it interrelates with the anniversary syndrome.

Suge Knight Did Not Kill Battlestar Galactica's Terry Carter

On Friday, January 30, 2015, an arrest was made because "someone was tragically killed on the set of Straight Outta Compton, allegedly after being hit by a car driven by rap mogul Suge Knight....Numerous outlets, most prominently Entertainment Weekly, reported that the victim was former Battlestar Galactica star Terry Carter. Operating off this information, Cinema Blend and other outlets wrote obituaries for Terry Carter." Source.

But that actor is alive and well, and 86. The man killed is Terry Carter, 55, said to be a tow truck driver, working on the set of the film.

The other man was identified by his manager as Cle "Bone" Sloan, 51, an actor and film consultant. He was hospitalized in stable condition.

Terry Carter, 86, the actor NOT allegedly killed by Surge Knight, played "Colonel Tigh" in Battlestar Galactica, from September 17, 1978, through April 29, 1979.

In a bit of a name game, during the late 1950s, Carter played Private Sugie Sugarman, on the Phil Silvers Show.

Lafayette Sinkholes

A giant 30 foot sinkhole opened up in Lafayette, Colorado, on Monday, 1-11 in 2015, Jim "Fayette Factor" Brandon informed me.

Meanwhile.. From the sync whole past...

What's funny about that is a 30 foot sinkhole opened up on 12-2 in 2012, in Lafayette, California, as well.

France's 9/11

 Kouachi brothers allegedly carried out the massacre of 12 people at satirical newspaper Charlie Hebdo, while their associate is suspected of killing a policewoman and wounding a street sweeper. On Friday, they hunkered down with hostages in separate sieges that ended in a blaze of gunfire and explosions. A chronology of the terror.

WEDNESDAY, Jan. 7:

—Masked gunmen shouting "Allahu akbar!" storm the Paris offices of Charlie Hebdo at noon during an editorial meeting. They head straight for the paper's editor, Stephane Charbonnier, killing him and his police bodyguard. With military-style precision, they go on to slaughter seven other journalists, a maintenance worker and a visitor.

—Making their escape in a black car, the gunmen pause to kill a Muslim police officer, shooting him in the head as he writhes on the ground.

—France raises its terror alert system to the maximum — Attack Alert — and bolsters security with thousands of extra soldiers and officers to guard media offices, places of worship, transport and other sensitive areas.

—World leaders, journalists' groups and others around the world express horror. "This is an act of exceptional barbarism," says French President Francois Hollande.

—French police identify three suspects: The two brothers Cherif Kouachi, 32, and Said Kouachi, 34, and a suspected accomplice, 18-year-old Mourad Hamyd. A witness quotes the gunmen as saying: "You can tell the media that it's al-Qaida in Yemen."

—Thousands of demonstrators jam the Place de la Republique — Republic Square — near the site of the shooting to honor the victims. They wave pens and papers reading "Je suis Charlie" — "I am Charlie" — a slogan of solidarity that went viral on Twitter. Similar rallies are held in London's Trafalgar Square as well as Madrid, Barcelona and Berlin.

—Hamyd turns himself in at a police station in Charleville-Mezieres, a town in France's eastern Champagne region.

—Heavily armed police move into the city of Reims, also in Champagne, apparently searching for the Kouachi brothers.

THURSDAY, Jan. 8:

—Police release photos of the Kouachi brothers amid fears they will strike again. SWAT teams backed by helicopters hunt for them in the Picardie region north of Paris. Nine people, suspected members of the brothers' entourage, are detained for questioning in several regions.

—Fears of a backlash against France's large Muslim community are heightened when grenades and gunfire hit a mosque overnight in the city of Le Mans, southwest of Paris. No one is in the building at the time and no one injured.

—An assailant opens fire on a police officer in a pre-dawn shooting on the southern edge of Paris, killing her and injuring a nearby street sweeper. The suspect is identified as Amedy Coulibaly.



—Police swarm a gas station in the northern Aisne region where the Kouachi brothers are reportedly spotted.

—At noon, bells ring out and Paris public transport stands still as France marks a moment of silence to honor the victims.

—Britain increases security at ports and border points. Authorities put more than 88,000 security forces on the streets of France.

—Four leading French imams and the Vatican issue a joint statement denouncing the Charlie Hebdo massacre.

—In a rare public speech, Britain's top domestic spy chief, MI5 director-general Andrew Parker, calls the Paris attack "a terrible reminder" that some "wish us harm."

—The lights of the Eiffel Tower go out in tribute to the dead.

FRIDAY, Jan. 9.

—Security official says Kouachi brothers are on the move after stealing a Peugeot northeast of Paris.

—French Interior Minister Bernard Cazeneuve says an operation is underway to detain the brothers in Dammartin-en-Goele, about 40 kilometers (25 miles) northeast of Paris.

—The brothers are cornered with a hostage inside a printing house. Security forces backed by a convoy of ambulances stream into the small industrial town. Helicopters hover above. Schools go into lockdown and town residents are told to stay inside their houses.

—"They said they want to die as martyrs," local lawmaker Yves Albarello, who was inside the police command post, tells French television.

—A gunman takes hostages at a kosher grocery on the eastern edge of Paris, wounding several people. Police say the hostage-taker is armed with an automatic rifle and there are multiple hostages and wounded.

—A police official identifies the gunman as Coulibaly. Police release his photo and that of a suspected female accomplice, Hayat Boumddiene, calling them "armed and dangerous."

—Police link Coulibaly to the Kouachi brothers.

—Coulibaly threatens to kill his hostages if police launch an assault on the cornered brothers, authorities say.

—Police order all shops closed in a famed Jewish neighborhood in central Paris, far from the two developing hostage crises.

—Just before 5 p.m., the Kouachi brothers came out from the printing plant with guns blazing, a French police official said. They were killed and their hostage was freed.

—Minutes later, police storm the Paris kosher grocery in another eruption of gunshots and explosions. Coulibaly and at least four hostages are killed. Fifteen hostages are freed.

— A member of al-Qaida's branch in Yemen says the group directed the attack on Charlie Hebdo.

Charle Hebdo Attack Leave 12 Dead

UPDATE: French police have published the names and photographs of two suspects wanted in Wednesday's terrorist attack on the Charlie Hebdo magazine in Paris.

In a statement posted on its website, French national police ask for information on the whereabouts of two suspects: Cherif Kouachi and Said Kouachi, warning that both are potentially armed and dangerous.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


Gunmen have attacked the Paris office of French satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo, killing 12 people and injuring 10, French officials say.

Witnesses spoke of sustained gunfire at the office as the attackers opened fire with assault rifles before escaping.

Police have launched a major operation in the Paris area in their hunt for the attackers.

Charlie's latest tweet was a cartoon of the Islamic State militant group leader, Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi.

The satirical weekly has courted controversy in the past with its irreverent take on news and current affairs.

The magazine was fire-bombed in November 2011 a day after it carried a caricature of the Prophet Muhammad.

President Francois Hollande is at the scene and is planning to hold an emergency cabinet meeting.

'Black-hooded men'

Two of those killed are police officers, France's AFP news agency reports, and five of those wounded are critically injured.

An eyewitness, Benoit Bringer, told French TV channel Itele: "Two black-hooded men entered the building with Kalashnikovs.

"A few minutes later we heard lots of shots."

The men were then seen fleeing the building.

"It's carnage," French police official Luc Poignant told another French channel, BFMTV.

Police have warned French media to be on alert and pay attention to security following the attack.

Star Wars/Batman/007/Laura Craft Actor Dies Suddenly

An actor who appeared in James Bond films and as a Jedi master in the Star Wars franchise has collapsed and died during a theatre rehearsal.

Kan Bonfils was rehearsing for Dante's Inferno, which was due to open at The Rag Factory in London this week.

Members of the production's Craft Theatre company and paramedics were unable to resuscitate Bonfils.

Chris Hislop, the company's spokesman, said the cast and crew were devastated by the death.

''Kan collapsed during a rehearsal and the director Rocky Rodriguez Jr performed CPR on location."

Mr Hislop added: "The entire company are in shock. There is absolutely severe sadness, it is a real tragedy."

The cause of death is not known.

Dante's Inferno is expected to continue with another actor from the theatre company replacing Bonfils.

Mr Hislop said: ''It was due to open on Thursday. If things go to plan and if the incoming actor is able to do the job we are hoping to open on Saturday.''

Bonfils played a "henchman" in 2012's Skyfall with Daniel Craig and Isagura in 1997's Tomorrow Never Dies with Pierce Brosnan. He also appeared as Jedi master Saesee Tiin in Star Wars: Episode I - The Phantom Menace (1999), opposite Liam Neeson and Ewan McGregor.

He also had roles in Lara Croft Tomb Raider: The Cradle Of Life (2003), Batman Begins (2005) and several productions on the West End stage.

Clinton and Fayette Factors Kick Off New Year

Could this been #42's year?

The year has begun with a bang ~ especially as linked to the Fayette Factor.

Fayette County, Georgia 

First up, on January 1, 2014, at approximately 4:17 AM, Chief McCollom, 57, called the Fayette County (GA) 911 center to report he had shot his wife, Margaret McCollom, 58, in their home at 103 Autumn Leaf in Peachtree City. First responders were dispatched to the McCollom home and Ms. McCollom was airlifted to the Atlanta Medical Center to be treated for her injury.

 

The GBI has released the recording of the 911 call from Chief William McCollom to the Fayette County 911 center.

It was initially reported that the chief shot her two times, according to the 911 recording, but authorities now say she was shot just once.

The story is a bit more complicated that initially thought. See "Tangled marriage-go-round revealed as Georgia police chief and 'wife' he critically shot were DIVORCED 15 years ago - and he was married to a Florida RABBI until last year when she claimed he cheated."

Lafayette High School

Then it broke on January 2, 2015, that newly convicted billionaire pedophile, Jeffery Epstein has been linked to Prince Andrew, Bill Clinton, Kevin Spacey, Chris Tucker, Gerald Edelman, Murray Gell-Mann and Stephen Hawking, and Manhattan-London society figure Ghislaine Maxwell, daughter of the late media titan Robert Maxwell.

Epstein, 61, was born in Brooklyn, New York, and attended Brooklyn’s Lafayette High School and excelled at mathematics. This helped him secure job in his early 20s as a maths teacher at the exclusive Dalton School, a private college located on New York’s Upper East Side.

"Epstein reportedly flew Tucker and Spacey to Africa on his private jet as part of a charitable endeavour. Clinton, meanwhile, flew on multiple occasions in the same plane to Epstein’s private Caribbean island, Little St James, between 2002 and 2005 as he developed his philanthropic post-presidential career. It would later be alleged in court that Epstein organised orgies on that same private island in the US Virgin Islands," says one source, based on the court records.

Fayette County, West Virginia

On the afternoon of January 2, 2015, a serious accident in Fayette County, West Virginia, had shutdown Route 19. The 911 dispatchers reported three cars were involved in an accident on Rt 19 North at the Glen Jean exit.

There were other news from the netherworld of the Fayette Factor, including from...

Lafayette, Colorado: "Body found on New Year’s Day marks second found in Lafayette during holiday season."

Fayetteville, Arkansas: "Miller Williams, a Fayetteville resident, long time University of Arkansas professor and inaugural poet for President Bill Clinton, died on Thursday [January 1, 2014] after battling Alzheimer’s disease for the last several years," wrote the Fayetteville Flyer. His daughter is the famed singer-songwriter Lucinda Williams.

The first notable celebrity death of 2015 was Mario Cuomo, and the name mentioned in most of his obituaries was former Fayetteville, Arkansas' Bill Clinton. Cuomo's dropping out of the running for president in 1992 resulted in the opening for Clinton's successful campaign. See CNN's "Cuomo and Clinton: A complicated, but mutually beneficial, relationship."

The Clinton House is a house in Fayetteville, Arkansas built in 1931. The house is the first home of Bill Clinton and Hillary Rodham while they both taught at the University of Arkansas School of Law. The home also witnessed the marriage of Bill and Hillary in the living room in 1975. Bill Clinton is tied to the Fayette Factor.

Does it seem that there might be a background Bill Clinton factor, too, this year?

A sort of 'n sync thing seems to be happening with #42.

New Year's Eve Party, Fergie, Lady Gaga, Madonna, and the Illuminati

Happy New Year 2015.

Last night saw the annual televised dropping of the ball in New York City's Times Square, via the ghost of Dick Clark and the mainstream national networks.

Also, once again, the rock entertainer Fergie appeared, flashing what some have said are Illuminati hand signals. Were they? Some were merely linked to "L" and "A" for Los Angeles, we are told.

But what is this thing the rock music industry has going on with the overt showing of alleged Illuminati signaling?

From 2011.

Certainly, Lady Gaga makes no mystery about her hand signs being Illuminati-inspired. Look at the All-Seeing-Eye imagery behind her symbol-packed act, below.

 Photo credit above, thanks to here.

Madonna in Desperately Seeking Susan (1985) wears her dark metallic jacket with its gold and red brocade pyramid under the All-Seeing Eye. Madonna's choice of jacket has been acknowledged by many writers as her first public homage to the Illuminati.

What messages do these individuals wish to project?

What does it all mean?
