Shut the hell up; every thing's fine. The gulf is fixed, the economy is on the mend, and there's plenty of TV to watch and worthless crap to buy. GO BACK TO SLEEP. We'll take care of everything.

The PTB

Another of my concerns about this whole disaster is the possibility of diseases spreding through human contact and being mixed with the common flu virus.
But as I search for those possibilities I recieve yet another alarming email about something which to me sounds like a convenient way to take some of the responsibility and the legal heat off BP...

Now there is news that denuge fever has been discovered in central Florida and locals are being asked to remain indoors during the times when the spread is at its peak...

What if it is NOT dengue fever but something spread from the dispursants?

As the article states, they are still trying to get results back to verify the outbreak.


Dengue fever has infected a handful of people in Central Florida, health officials said.

“This is not a regular flu virus that you get, you feel a lot worse,” said Dr. Todd Husty.

“You get a real great fever, a horrible fever; it's called ‘break bone fever.’ You feel like your bones are breaking, but it's really joint pain,” Husty said.

Health officials said more than a dozen people have picked up the virus from Mosquitoes in the Keys.

More than 30 more across the state of Florida have the fever after picking it up out of the country.

Signs And Symptoms Of Dengue Fever



What is dengue fever?


Dengue fever is a disease caused by a family of viruses that are transmitted by mosquitoes. It is an acute illness of sudden onset that usually follows a benign course with symptoms such as headache, fever, exhaustion, severe muscle and joint pain, swollen glands (lymphadenopathy), and rash. The presence (the "dengue triad") of fever, rash, and headache (and other pains) is particularly characteristic of dengue. Other signs of dengue fever include bleeding gums, severe pain behind the eyes, and red palms and soles.

Dengue (pronounced DENG-gay) strikes people with low levels of immunity. Because it is caused by one of four serotypes of virus, it is possible to get dengue fever multiple times. However, an attack of dengue produces immunity for a lifetime to that particular serotype to which the patient was exposed.

Dengue goes by other names, including "breakbone" or "dandy fever." Victims of dengue often have contortions due to the intense joint and muscle pain, hence the name breakbone fever. Slaves in the West Indies who contracted dengue were said to have dandy fever because of their postures and gait.

Dengue hemorrhagic fever is a more severe form of the viral illness. Manifestations include headache, fever, rash, and evidence of hemorrhage in the body. Petechiae (small red or purple blisters under the skin), bleeding in the nose or gums, black stools, or easy bruising are all possible signs of hemorrhage. This form of dengue fever can be life-threatening and can progress to the most severe form of the illness, dengue shock syndrome.

Maybe the Dolphins and aquatic life are suffering from the advanced stages of not the BP spill and its dispersants but from Denugue Fever!

Originally posted by justadoodIts been said over and over; this headline is nonsense. Speculate all you want, your source is bogus.

Its hard to believe that people are not [right now] dying from the incredible toxic air that has is affecting everyone in the gulf region. if anyone doesnt believe this then WATCH this incredible Video of the Gulf just taken from a private aircraft. incredible doesnt even really do justice to what this video shows. of all the videos i've seen to date, this ranks at the top of those showing whats actually happening in the gulf (and elsewhere).

on july 19 this private pilot took a 5 hour tour of the gulf from LA to AL. when he returned, oil *covered* all leading edges of the aircraft! struts, wheels, tail, wings .. everything was covered with an dark orange, oily film. needless to say, the oil was not there when they left.

[U]THIS STUFF IS IN THE AIR[/U]. people are inhaling it, ingesting it, and there can be no question whatsoever that its being picked up by prevailing winds and deposited elsewhere.
HOW CAN ANYONE BE SO BRAINDEAD AS TO THINK THAT BREATHING A MIXTURE OF OF OIL AND NEUROTOXIN IS NOT KILLING PEOPLE!?

Funny I was just viewing this video again, but on another link than yours, and decided it has been watched here on other threads enough to get the point out, I guess I was mistaken, thankyou for providing the link.

We have all come to love this guy, Chris Pincetich, this video really explains in Layman's terms what the impact will be from the aerial spray of corexit and understanding what is behind these tests"


"We are all part of this experiment, how do you feel?"


I saw this first in another ATS thread and cannot discount the importance to see it again and again.

Watch chris in the first video and then Summer in the second one down.

www.truth-out.org...

In the video (below), author and journalist Summer Burke talks about her experience being sprayed with the toxic dispersant Corexit.
Ott shared these stories on a recent trip to the Bay Area with Diane Wilson, former Texas shrimper turned rabble-rousing activist. Ott was coughing and constantly clearing her throat during our two-hour conversation. "I can still smell the oil," she said.
Media outlets have been reporting on public health concerns and taking water quality samples, but Ott says they've only scratched the surface. "If I were in charge of the media, I would be talking be about public safety and public health every day. They should also be exposing the truth about how our federal standards are outdated and no longer protective of public health or worker safety. We knew in 1989 that OSHA had a loophole in it that's big enough to drive every single sick worker through. It exempts the reporting of colds and flus. That loophole has not been closed since Exxon Valdez."
Ott expressed her concerns during a May meeting with Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) administrator Lisa Jackson. "I was sitting across from her. She said, quote, 'I am walking a fine line between truth and hysteria. We don't want to create a panic.' This shows you how much our government is beholden to oil and cannot imagine a future without oil. We the people have got to imagine this. We have to. This is way worse than people think."

Is the US Government actually colluding this entire mess at the expense of us due to the incredible drive for profits over conscience?

Watch this video:
July, 2010


Chris Williams, activist and author of "Ecology And Socialism", speaks to the recent BP ecological crisis at a public meeting presented by the ISO (International Socialist Organization) in New York City. He tackles the "how's" and "why's" of the policies that led to this crisis and examines the role that a democratic socialist society could play in an ecological restructure.

A debate would be a separate thread, one that takes both the standpoint of BP and them doing what they can with the political resources available to them as well as the environmental impacts of those findings. problem with that is of the transparency, we are not able to really know what science has discovered, but if it is not a celebration, then what is it that they wish to keep secret. Oh there I go again the Cter who just cant accept that all is well with the BP /disaster/scandal.


I still really dont understand why you think anyone who questions ANY aspect of the info you put forth is somehow arguing "BP's Side" and is saying 'all is well'.

Not a single person in this forum has claimed 'all is well'.Some have merely taken account with the quality of the information you put forth.

And you think a debate of the info belongs in another thread?? Umm, isnt that what ATS is for? For people to present info and discuss its merit?


Because it is NOT meant to be an echo chamber. Challenge each other. Thats how we learn.

Perhaps this will work, I just hit the "Gotogodlikeproductions" link on the error, it worked at that point.

I dont usually visit the GLforum as I have had many friends treated like dirt there, but yes, go if you must.

Just a bit sensitive? Do you blame me?
I am open! By all means if you have information to the contrary of what I am onto, then please support this discussion with your findings!




I guess after all I am bias against the system supporting the BP event. BUT, am a hopefully optimistic that somehow, someway this will all be resolved and noone will get hurt.

It has been a breath of fresh air to hear from our healthy Gulf locals on this thread who claim to be doing just fine, not all can say that however.

Interesting that many of us affected with the symptoms shown and discussed in the video above are not even from the gulf states but somewhere further along the gulfstream from there...

In the video Chris says that the spray does travel in the wind and is a problem. Just how far can it go though?

Bonnie Drops Toxic BP Rain - More Plants Dying




Early this morning here in the Florida Keys we got some rain from tropical storm Bonnie that passed just a little North of Key Largo Florida, it was not a real heavy rain just short and light.

The pictures below are of my Jasmine plant and the way it became about 2 hours or so after the rain from the tropical storm.

Once again americans are over doing it.

Look we all know you have a compensation culture and pray for the day that someone will drive over your foot so you can retire early but dreaming up about millions dieing from the clean up chemicals it taking it a bit too far.

BP is keeping the Government in the dark, and the Government is keeping us in the dark



BP's Don't-Ask-Don't-Tell Policy: The Well’s Corked, But Public and Government are Left in the Dark




Prof. Bob Bea, of UC Berkeley, a civil engineer with years of expertise in marine oil drilling, says he is concerned that during the current crisis of BP’s blown-out well deep under the Gulf of Mexico, government scientists may not be getting all the information they need from the secretive oil company in order to make intelligent decisions about shutting down the gusher.

“Certainly we independent investigators are not getting information about the condition of the well or about the leaks in the surrounding sea floor,” says Prof. Bea, who is a member of the Deepwater Horizon Study Group at UC Berkeley’s Center for Catastrophic Risk Management, where he is co-director, “And I don’t think the expert investigators at the Department of Energy are getting it either.”

“Information about oil reservoir formations is highly secretive among the oil companies. BP would be loath to share information about what’s going on in a reservoir with competitors,” he says.



What has Prof. Bea and other outside experts concerned is that the casing of the BP well--the long string of pipe that runs from the sea floor down to the high-pressure oil reservoir 2.5 miles below the bottom of the Gulf of Mexico--has “clearly been breached.” He says this can be known with some confidence because the gas that erupted through the top of the well, exploding through and ultimately sinking the giant floating drill rig, the Deepwater Horizon, “almost certainly” came not from the oil-bearing layer where the bottom of the casing reaches, but from the strata through which the well was drilled, most likely down near the bottom of the well string. (There is good reason to believe the blast came from near the well’s bottom because, according to Dept. of Energy officials, a gamma-ray examination of the BOP showed parts of the lower casing had been blasted all the way up into the blowout preventer, probably explaining why its fail-safe shut-off shears couldn’t work.)

"...we have dolphins that are hemorrhaging. People who work near it are hemorrhaging internally. And that’s what dispersants are supposed to do... Congressman Markey and Nadler, as well as Senator Mikulski, have been heroes... Mark Kaufman, EPA whistleblower, Democracy Now!



Dolphins?
Some of this Aaron McCollum project seagate story could possibly be pieced together.

Does the Gulf of Mexico have something to do with the Gulf of Aden?
I sure would like to see what Aaron had to say about it

I didnt realize this thread has sucha broad topic. I though it was related to the info you presented.

what would you like me to say?

The requisite "BP are Evil" comment, or maybe something about a dream I had about the NWO?

Are you trolling me? I have yet to experience that, lol, what a trip.

I think we see eye to eye, but really some of your posts have been more a distraction than keeping me honest and on course.

Just saying...
