Study: Evidence of Parallel Universes Found by Scientist
“One possibility is that the universe is so vast that an exact replica of our Solar System, our planet and ourselves exists many times over. These Doppelganger Universes exist within our own Universe; in what scientist now call ‘The Multiverse.'”
An astrophysicist is saying that he’s found evidence of alternate universes by looking back to a time right after the big bang.
Chary, a researcher at the European Space Agency’s Planck Space Telescope data center at CalTech, said the glow could be due to matter from a neighboring universe “leaking” into ours, according to New Scientist magazine.
“Our universe may simply be a region within an eternally inflating super-region,” scientist Chary wrote in a recent study in the Astrophysical Journal.

SNOW ON MT. ROSE! FIRST WINTER STORM TO HIT RENO (STORY HERE)
Some amusing and SHOCKING images gathered by GMA in this video that are a must-see #Snowvember. Snow across the country from wet weather likely caused by the El Nino effect of warm ocean water in the West carried by the Gulf Stream across the country, causing rain and snowfall in its path.
OH THE EXQUISITE HORROR OF SNOWFALL!
ABC Breaking News | Latest News Videos
Of course the above snow storms are going to happen at this time of year! WINTER IS BEGINNING… early, according to conspiracy theorists, who say the gov’t is controlling the weather by the use of a WEAPON called HAARP (see HAARP.net), while others blame the intense storms on global warming that is warming the ocean causing El Nino to occur, which interferes with weather patterns and causes storms in the South Pacific.

Angry Fast Food Customers Post Photos of Their Fast Food Horrors on Twitter (MUST-SEE)
We’ve all had that ANNOYING experience: we order fast food and later discover it’s either missing something, it’s not cooked, it’s not what you ordered, it’s made wrong, or it’s got somebody’s severed finger in it. But most frequently — we discover we got stiffed paying for food that’s not in the bag! Oh the agony of being wronged by the fast food joint! But some people on Twitter are posting photos of their rotten grub to fight back against this outrage!
I love this one, entitled: “Cheese on the Side” Heh-heh!
Powerful El Nino to Bring Record-Breaking Wet Weather to West Coast this Winter
Will it bring death and destruction?
The massive El Nino (warm ocean temperature; see red in sea temp photo below) is being called “too big to fail” by a NASA scientist, promising a drought-busting wet winter for Los Angeles (S. Cal.) at 60% and San Francisco (N. Cal.) at 40% having a wet winter.
“There’s no longer a possibility that El Niño wimps out at this point. It’s too big to fail,” said Bill Patzert, climatologist for NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory in La Cañada Flintridge. “And the winter over North America is definitely not going to be normal,” he said.
KOFR writes: “Scientists say El Niño is getting stronger because of rising sea-level ocean temperatures in the Pacific Ocean and a change of directions of the wind along the equator. That means that winter storms that normally drop rain in central America could shift north and move them over California and the southern United States.

WHAT IF THIS WERE YOU?

Shocking moment desperate father throws himself, his wife and baby onto rail tracks in Hungary after realizing their ‘train to Austria’ is actually taking them to a refugee camp! These and tens of thousands more terrified people are fleeing their war-torn countries from the evil threat of ISIS terrorism encroachment. While diplomats and politicians sit around doing nothing but arguing, human beings are dying as they try to escape for their lives.
All countries, including China who boasts a massive military, should join forces and stampede ISIS-controlled countries on foot and by air to destroy the scourge, far worse than the murderous Nazi invasions of the 1930s and 1940s. What a sad state of affairs our world today is in. It’s terrifying.
