AMC charging more for better movie seats.

Posted on February 8, 2023 by On the North River

AMC is probably only the first theater chain to go this route.

Middle seats at many US movie theaters just got more expensive.

AMC Theaters, the nation’s largest movie theater chain, on Monday unveiled a new pricing scheme in which seat location determines how much your movie ticket costs. Seats in the middle of the auditorium will cost a dollar or two more, while seats in the front row will be slightly cheaper.

AMC said the pricing plan, dubbed “Sightline,” has already been rolled out in some locations and, by the end of the year, will be in place at all domestic AMC theaters…

I wondered why the larger movie chains were all starting to require patrons to ‘pick’ a specific seat in the theater when buying a ticket.  It’s annoying and adds more time to the transaction.

It’s because they were setting us up for this.  Additional fees, just like the airlines with their add-on charges for bags, window seats and the always increasing list of charges for what used to be included in the price of the ticket.

I think I may have seen my last movie at a movie house.

How America Took Out The Nord Stream Pipeline

Posted on February 8, 2023 by On the North River

Bombshell if true.  Article is a long read.

Last June, the Navy divers, operating under the cover of a widely publicized mid-summer NATO exercise known as BALTOPS 22, planted the remotely triggered explosives that, three months later, destroyed three of the four Nord Stream pipelines, according to a source with direct knowledge of the operational planning.

This could break NATO.

People Who Think Themselves Unattractive More Likely To Keep Wearing Masks, Study Says

A report comprised of three studies showed that people who thought they were less attractive were more likely to wear masks.

The report was derived from three studies conducted by the Department of Psychology and Center for Happiness Studies at Seoul National University in South Korea. The first two studies found that people who thought they were good-looking were less willing to wear a mask; they were less likely to believe that mask-wearing made them look better. The third study found that their belief was stronger in situations where they needed to deliver a favorable impression.

“Research shows that individuals who perceive themselves as more (vs. less) attractive possess more socially desirable attributes … have higher self-esteem … and enjoy better mental and physical health,” the study stated.

The study claims that “as essential cues that signal (un) attractiveness (e.g., facial symmetry) … can be censored with a mask, mask-wearing might critically influence how one’s attractiveness is perceived. … relatively unattractive individuals are deemed more attractive with masks … previous findings suggest that mask-wearing enhances perceived attractiveness among unattractive individuals, while the opposite is true for attractive individuals.”

The MEME just write themselves.

Repost from 2020: US Death Rate soaring…

Posted on February 2, 2023 by On the North River

The study, published in the Journal of the American Medical Association, finds March and April deaths unrelated to COVID-19 rose sharply in the five states with the most COVID-19 fatalities. Those states include Massachusetts, Michigan, New Jersey, New York, and Pennsylvania.

Compared to January and February averages, diabetes deaths rose by 96 percent in those states. Deaths tied to heart disease (89%), Alzheimer’s disease (64%), and stroke (35%) also saw disturbing jumps. The study adds deaths in New York City due to heart disease and diabetes both rose by over 350 percent during that time.

Researchers believe fear of getting infected with COVID-19 is keeping many people from seeking proper medical care. The study adds patients in the hardest hit areas may not be getting enough care because local hospitals are overwhelmed with coronavirus cases.

“We can’t forget about mental health,” says Woolf. “A number of people struggling with depression, addiction and very difficult economic conditions caused by lockdowns may have become increasingly desperate, and some may have died by suicide.”

In 2023, and they are still holding onto their talisman.

But now we have the curious phenomena of “Died Suddenly” and huge statistical upticks in the death rate from cancer, heart attacks, strokes … etc.
But only in those countries that had wide spread vaccination rates of the mRNA “so called” vaccine. Such as; USA, EU, Australia, Israel.
Not in places with very low vaccination rates, e.g. Africa.
