Watching this CNN video, it is stated that in 1975 the Antarctica ice sheet was melting at about 40 billion tons a year, Now fast forward to 2017, it is now melting at a rate of 252 billion tons a year at a rate 6 times or more a year. 2018 has the warmest oceans on record, breaking 2017’s record. https://www.cnn.com/videos/world/2019/01/16/antarctica-glacier-ice-melt-earth-matters-jennifer-gray-dnt-lead-vpx.cnn/video/playlists/around-the-world/

Now Russia threatens Europe with a Nuclear Device that can create 1300 - 1600 foot high tidal waves that can go inland and wipe out all life 1000 miles in. https://www.msn.com/en-ca/news/world/russian-media-threatens-europe-with-200-megaton-nuclear-doomsday-device/ar-BBSfEik?li=AAggNb9

Just wanted to follow up on my original post. So Ive been researching what the issue may be and it seems that updating the firmware on a windows 10 works the best, but updating via phone or iPad seems to be a weak wifi connection issue due to the size of the update. It took me 4 days to get this Fitbit to update via IPad and an additional day to find out that I had to restart my Fitbit 3 times before it started to read my heart rate and properly record my steps and calories. I’m sure I’m not the only one using a Fitbit, but wanted to reply on how I resolved my issue. Thanks for reading.

Anyone use a Fitbit? Having an issue updating firmware, seems to be a connection issue of some sort, it sometimes connect then it disconnects, I keep having to repeat this process over and over. Seems I’m getting nowhere with the updates. Looking for suggestions. Tx

China has been cracking down on religions for sometime, got a short video on a discussion about this from 3 months ago.

These “workers” were obviously trying to scam, the report even says they tried to get the home owners utility bill and account number. In the comments section below in that same report they talk about how these scammers will call in pretending to be you and switch utility company behind your back. No honest utility company would ever have a policy that encourages breaking into someone’s house to obtains someone’s utility bill and account info.

I’m late in the game on this thread but thought of a couple of things. for newcomers, Read the forum rules and guidelines before posting for the first time. Use plain text over HTML if you want your post to be readable by everyone.

I have a subscription with the Climate Science, Awareness and Solutions website that alerts me every month on what our monthly global average temperature is, every month it goes up base on previous years models of the same month. You can get a monthly subscription here if anyone is interested, they basically send graphs and charts of our temperature rise. For those that are enthusiast on this topic. https://www.climatescienceawarenesssolutions.org/temp/

Heatwave incoming for the northeast US, its going to be a real bad one. https://www.cnn.com/2018/07/02/us/northeast-heat-wave-wxc/index.html

Facts are that the Ice caps are actually increasing and decreasing, it depends where your looking, overall we are loosing more than gaining. I linked an article that was released on June 14th a few days ago about Antarctica study that was done. West of Antarctica is loosing ice 3 times as fast while east side of Antarctica is gaining Ice. So the scientist who say that it is gaining ice, they are partially correct. But remember these scientist are paid to make these statements. The same when stating facts about the greenhouse gases, most scientists aren’t including Methane that is in the Arctic Ocean, we currently have 5 Gigatons of methane in our atmosphere and about 500 to 1000 or more gigatons in the Arctic Ocean that can potential be released, according to a climate experts at an UN Climate Conferrance it was said that all we need to end life is 1% of methane to release and its over.

Latest on climate change as of yesterday, they have found that the rate of loss of ice in west Antarctica is melting 3 times faster than originally estimated, based on a study between 1997 and 2017. https://climatenewsnetwork.net/antarcticas-melting-is-accelerating-faster/

Yeah, we see this pattern play out over and over again; A Shooting happens, then there is a deman for action, maybe some bill be introduced in congress, then there will be debates going back and forth, then people move on with little and nothing changed until eventually another mass shooting happens. Rinse and repeat.

Never a dull moment....another shooting incident that has just taken place in a school. It is in its preliminary stages. Very little detail at this time. https://www.cnn.com/2018/05/18/us/texas-school-shooting/index.html

Thanks, but nothing to panic right now. There are three phases, in my zone I am in phase 1 currently, once it reaches Phase 2 then its a cause of concern. I will have to empty out my belongings as a precaution for sure.
