Before I get into this article, there is something I need to say. Our son lives and works in Korea. He told me two weeks ago that the government allowed the bars in Seoul to remain open for business.

He told us that it was reported that a man with CV-19 had been in close proximity to around 2000 people in the bars. Is it just me, or does the reader see clearly that one of the worst businesses to keep open during a pandemic is a bar?? 

Thankfully, our son does not frequent bars.

Coronavirus restrictions lifted: Second wave fears as China and South Korea reimpose some lockdowns

China and South Korea reimposed lockdown restrictions after a spike in new infections of the coronavirus raised concerns of a second wave of the pandemic.

At least 15 cases of the virus have been confirmed in Shulan, China, prompting officials to quarantine 290 people.

Authorities have also enforced martial law and locked down the northeastern city.

The Jilin provincial government declared the city at high risk for the spread of the epidemic.

Trains and vehicles, except those used by emergency rescuers, have been barred from entering the city.

Residents must stay at home, according to a report in the state newspaper Capital News.

Households can elect one person to go out to buy essential goods, like groceries.

High school students who were recently allowed to return to the classroom are once again taking their courses online.

Public service and entertainment venues, such as sports centers and libraries, have been temporarily closed.

Most restaurants are permitted only to provide takeout.

The first case of the new outbreak, which was detected Friday, involved a 45-year-old woman who is a laundry worker for a city’s public security bureau, Jilin health authorities said.

Eighteen of her close contacts were required to isolate.

Returning to normal

While contact tracing is underway in Shulan, life is making the slow return to normal elsewhere in the country.

In Shanghai, Disneyland began to reopen Monday with enhanced health and safety measures.

The park is limiting the number of people allowed to enter; enforcing social distancing in lines, restaurants and ride vehicles; and frequently sanitizing and disinfecting facilities.

Nationwide, China reported 17 new cases Sunday and no deaths.

Seoul nightclubs spike

South Korea, which eased social distancing requirements last week, recorded a spike in cases linked to nightclubs in Seoul.

But authorities cautioned that it did not suggest that a second wave of the pandemic was beginning.

“The first wave has not ended and had a break to start another pandemic,” Jung Eun-Kyeong, director-general of South Korea’s Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said.

Second wave preparations

But she added that the medical community is continuing preparations for a second wave of the virus in autumn or winter.

Bars and clubs have been temporarily closed in Seoul in response to the new outbreak, which has been traced to one confirmed patient who visited a slew of establishments.

People who had visited bars in the popular nightclub district Itaewon have been asked to self-isolate for 14 days, regardless of whether they show symptoms, and to be tested.

‘Not over until it’s over’

President Moon Jae-in said it was a reminder that even though the spread of the virus has been controlled, it can re-emerge at any time, especially around enclosed, crowded spaces.

“It’s not over until it’s over. While keeping enhanced alertness until the end, we must never lower our guard regarding epidemic prevention,” he said at a briefing Sunday.

Across the country, 35 new cases were reported Monday, bringing the total since the beginning of the outbreak to 10,909.

Of those patients, 9,632 have recovered.

The death toll has remained steady at 256 since Friday. source

“It’s not over till it’s over” they say. It almost seems like they are pushing for a second wave, doesn’t it?

THE SUN Has Gone Through “Lockdown” and Strange Behavior Could Worsen Global Shortages

Since the very beginning of the “Covid 19” pandemic, I have been asking my husband almost on a daily basis “What has happened to our sun?”  We would laugh about it, but brethren – this is no laughing matter.

Today it has been reported from one of the most trusted websites which I use as a source for my writing, that the sun is acting strangely – so strangely that it has never been seen in recorded history.

I remember in April, waiting and waiting for the warmer temps and April showers to come as they always have since I can remember. Even into May, the temps have dipped below freezing at night and struggled to get above the high fifties during the day.

I keep wondering what is happening with our weather.

From zerohedge.com

The Sun “Has Gone Into Lockdown” and This Strange Behavior Could Worsen Global Food Shortages

At a time when the world is already being hit with major crisis after major crisis, our sun is behaving in ways that we have never seen before.  For as long as records have been kept, the sun has never been quieter than it has been in 2019 and 2020, and as you will see below we are being warned that we have now entered “a very deep solar minimum”.  Unfortunately, other very deep solar minimums throughout history have corresponded with brutally cold temperatures and horrific global famines, and of course this new solar minimum comes at a time when the United Nations is already warning that we are on the verge of “biblical” famines around the worldSo we better hope that the sun wakes up soon, because the alternative is almost too horrifying to talk about.

Sadly, most mainstream news outlets are largely ignoring this story, but at least a few are covering it.  The following comes from Forbes

While we on Earth suffer from coronavirus, our star—the Sun—is having a lockdown all of its ownSpaceweather.com reports that already there have been 100 days in 2020 when our Sun has displayed zero sunspots.

That makes 2020 the second consecutive year of a record-setting low number of sunspots— which you can see (a complete absence of) here.

And here is what the New York Post is saying…

Our sun has gone into lockdown, which could cause freezing weather, earthquakes and famine, scientists say.

The sun is currently in a period of “solar minimum,” meaning activity on its surface has fallen dramatically.

Experts believe we are about to enter the deepest period of sunshine “recession” ever recorded as sunspots have virtually disappeared.

Yes, covering COVID-19 is important, but the fact that scientists are warning that we are potentially facing “freezing weather, earthquakes and famine” should be deeply alarming for all of us.

And since the mainstream media has been largely silent on this crisis, most Americans don’t even know that it exists.

Last year, there were no sunspots at all 77 percent of the time, and so far this year there have been no sunspots at all 76 percent of the time

“This is a sign that solar minimum is underway,” reads SpaceWeather.com. “So far this year, the Sun has been blank 76% of the time, a rate surpassed only once before in the Space Age. Last year, 2019, the Sun was blank 77% of the time. Two consecutive years of record-setting spotlessness adds up to a very deep solar minimum, indeed.”

So why is this such a big deal?

Well, every once in a while a very deep solar minimum that lasts for several decades comes along, and when our planet has experienced such periods in the past the consequences have been quite dramatic.

For example, the New York Post is claiming that NASA scientists fear that we could potentially be facing “a repeat of the Dalton Minimum”

NASA scientists fear it could be a repeat of the Dalton Minimum, which happened between 1790 and 1830 — leading to periods of brutal cold, crop loss, famine and powerful volcanic eruptions.

Temperatures plummeted by up to 2 degrees Celsius (3.6 degrees Fahrenheit) over 20 years, devastating the world’s food production.

Even worse would be a repeat of the Maunder Minimum which stretched from 1645 to 1715.  It came as the globe was already in the midst of “the Little Ice Age”, and it caused harvest failures and famines all over the globe

The Maunder Minimum is the most famous cold period of the Little Ice Age. Temperatures plummeted in Europe (Figs. 14.3–14.7), the growing season became shorter by more than a month, the number of snowy days increased from a few to 20–30, the ground froze to several feet, alpine glaciers advanced all over the world, glaciers in the Swiss Alps encroached on farms and buried villages, tree-lines in the Alps dropped, sea ports were blocked by sea ice that surrounded Iceland and Holland for about 20 miles, wine grape harvests diminished, and cereal grain harvests failed, leading to mass famines (Fagan, 2007). The Thames River and canals and rivers of the Netherlands froze over during the winter (Fig. 14.3). The population of Iceland decreased by about half. In parts of China, warm-weather crops that had been grown for centuries were abandoned. In North America, early European settlers experienced exceptionally severe winters.

Of course this would be an exceptionally bad time for such a cataclysmic climate shift, because African Swine Fever has already wiped out approximately one-fourth of all the pigs in the world, colossal armies of locusts the size of major cities are systematically wiping out crops across much of Africa, the Middle East and Asia, and fear of COVID-19 is greatly disrupting global food supply chains.

In fact, it is being reported that widespread shutdowns of meat processing facilities in the United States may force farmers to euthanize “as many as 10 million hogs by September”

U.S. pork farmers may be forced to euthanize as many as 10 million hogs by September as a result of production-plant shutdowns brought on by the coronavirus pandemic, according to the National Pork Producers Council.

At least 14,000 reported positive COVID-19 cases have been connected to meatpacking facilities in at least 181 plants in 31 states as of May 13, and at least 54 meatpacking facility workers have died of the virus at 30 plants in 18 states, according to an investigation by the Midwest Center for Investigative reporting.

Even if the sun suddenly started acting perfectly normal once again, we would still be facing what the UN is calling “the worst humanitarian crisis since World War Two”.

Global food supplies are getting tighter with each passing day, and many are warning that some areas of the globe will soon be dealing with severe food shortages.

What we really need are a few years of really good growing weather, but the behavior of the sun may not make that possible.

So let’s keep a very close eye on the giant ball of fire that we are revolving around, because if it remains very quiet that could mean big trouble for all of us. source

An Umbrella to Combat Warming

When will mankind realize that they are not God? When will they know that manipulating the atmosphere using their own “wisdom” (and I use that term loosely) can be catastrophic to our planet?

From website:

 Research examines the possibility of spraying tiny particles into the stratosphere to block the sun a bit and cool the planet

 Every morning, the Keutsch Research Group gathers for a meeting. Eight engineers and chemists give updates on their preceding day’s work: ordering parts, transferring software, untangling an administrative snafu. The whole affair usually lasts less than 15 minutes.

Scheduling vacations and requisitioning supplies do not scream “high stakes,” but the group’s project could someday have major consequences for global climate change. It is controversial, however. Some even fear it could make things worse. Right now the group is waiting for approval to schedule a new experiment in the stratosphere.

Their idea? To shield the Earth with a mist of tiny particles. It sounds like the stuff of sci-fi movies, but since it was first proposed in the 1950s the idea has gained traction among scientists around the world to shield us not from extraterrestrials, as Hollywood might have it, but from the sun. Known as solar geoengineering, the concept is to send planes into the stratosphere — 6 to 31 miles above the Earth — to spray particles that can reflect sunlight back into space and cool the planet.

Working in collaboration with colleagues from the Keith Group — more than a dozen environmental scientists, engineers, economists, and political scientists under the leadership of David Keith, Gordon McKay Professor of Applied Physics at the Harvard John A. Paulson School of Engineering and Applied Sciences (SEAS) and a professor of public policy at the Harvard Kennedy School — the Keutsch Group is hoping to uncover some answers about the possibilities of such a scheme with a project they call the Stratospheric Controlled Perturbation Experiment, or SCoPEx.

The need for a bold new plan seems clear.

When will mankind know this very simple truth?

GOD IS GOD AND WE ARE NOT

Perhaps these mad scientists caused the “Grand Solar Minimum.”

Brethren, I believe that we are seeing the hand of God in His judgement against the people on earth.  I am not saying that we are in the period of time which the Bible calls Tribulation, but we are very close.

“And as he sat upon the mount of Olives, the disciples came unto him privately, saying, Tell us, when shall these things be? and what shall be the sign of thy coming, and of the end of the world?And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you.
For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many.And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet.
For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places. All these are the beginning of sorrows.Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all nations for my name’s sake.
And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another. And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many.And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold.
But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved.And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come” (Matthew 24:3-14).
Come Lord Jesus – Your bride awaits you. Come Quickly!
