october 12 2024 making aurora great again the fire rises bane the dark knight rises 2012 aurora colorado has a long recent history with twilight language why should we expect 2024 to be any different remember july 20 2012 i forecast something was going to happen on that date in conjunction with the release of the dark knight rises it did a mass shooting occurred on july 20 2012 at a midnight premiere of the dark knight rises leaving 12 dead and 58 injured some gravely 15 minutes after the film began the active shooting took place in theater no 9 at the century 16 movie theaters located at 14300 east alameda avenue in aurora colorado news reports have said as high as 15 are dead but as of 8 00 am eastern cnn is reporting 12 have been killed double counting caused the 15 count in my first blog posting about the shooting i wrote the name aurora means dawn the roman goddess of the dawn was named aurora and her siblings are sol sun and luna moon these names in latin and greek are aurora eos sol helios luna selene anne hathaway catwoman s public persona character in the dark knight rises is named selene kyle selene moon kyle strait of water river aurora is a suburb less than 10 miles east of downtown denver aurora originated in the 1880s as the town of fletcher taking its name from denver businessman donald fletcher who saw it as a real estate opportunity he and his partners staked out four square miles east of denver but the town and colorado struggled mightily after the silver crash of 1893 at that point fletcher skipped town leaving the community with a huge water debt inhabitants decided to rename the town aurora in 1907 after one of the subdivisions composing the town colorado is of spanish origin meaning colored red and ruddy the memories of columbine 20 miles away from aurora are being recalled by the colorado and other media the aurora name is familiar to investigators of the unexplained due to the the aurora texas airship incident that reportedly occurred on april 17 1897 in aurora texas a small town in the northwest corner of the dallas fort worth metroplex the incident similar to the more famous roswell ufo incident 50 years later allegedly resulted in a fatality from the crash the alleged alien body is reportedly buried in an unmarked grave at the local aurora cemetery various aurora copycat jokers and red dawn postings followed

paper is indicative carlos ii of spain the bewitched cursed by aspartylglucosaminuria andrew martin 1 robert heard 2 3 and victor s c fung 1 carlos ii of spain 1661 1700 last of the spanish habsburg dynasty was known as el hechizado the bewitched because of his poor health and feeble nature he suffered from a range of disorders including developmental delay intellectual disability dysarthria skeletal deformity recurrent infections epilepsy and infertility the spanish branch of the habsburg royal family was characterised by marked inbreeding and the male line died out with carlos ii various diagnoses have been proffered to explain carlos ii s infirmity though none fully explain the breadth of his ailments as illustrated here it may be that aspartylglucosaminuria an autosomal recessively inherited lysosomal storage disorder can account for the characteristic facial appearance of the habsburgs and for the wide variety of other features exhibited by carlos ii go to aspartylglucosaminuria aspartylglucosaminuria is an autosomal recessively inherited lysosomal disorder of in which glycoasparagines mostly aspartylglucosamine are deposited and build up in several different tissues including the nervous system most cases have been described in finland where a high carrier rate is prevalent although mutations are found worldwide 1 2 being autosomal recessively inherited the prevalence is increased in populations with a high degree of consanguinity characteristic clinical features typically include normal birth and early infancy followed at the age of 2 3 by delayed speech and motor development with intellectual disability 3 a weak suck in infancy has also been described 4 a distinctive facial appearance is present consisting of widely spaced eyes hypertelorism puffy eyelids small ears full lips a square and prominent jaw a cupid bow shape of the upper lip and a short broad nose patients have frequently been described as appearing prematurely aged 5 in addition there is frequently relative macrocephaly earlier in development which may evolve into relative microcephaly presumably due to retardation of skull growth as the disease progresses 6 not infrequently skin lesions are present a wide variety of such lesions have been described including erythema herpetic appearing lesions facial angiofibromas seborrhoea gingival overgrowth buccal oedema and occasionally tumours 7 8 fistulas have also been described 9 bony abnormalities are often seen including thick and misshapen ribs scoliosis and thickened calvaria 3 other suggestive features include recurrent pulmonary infections diarrhoea hypermobility of connective tissues hernias movement disorders and epilepsy 2 intellectual disability is typically mild early on though verbal dysfunction is most prominent with later progression to severe levels by late adulthood 4 a range of psychiatric symptoms may be present the course is progressive most patients die in the fifth decade somewhat interestingly as was the case in carlos ii patients generally become very apathetic abulic before death 2 go to carlos ii the bewitched carlos ii was a sick and frail monarch and the tragic end product of years of disastrous inbreeding ascending the throne at the age 4 he ruled over the spanish empire ineffectually for 35 years his death in 1700 without an heir threw europe into the convulsive and disastrous war of the spanish succession its end result was to weaken both spain and france allowing the rise of the english 10 carlos ii exhibited many features described in aspartylglucosaminuria contemporary sources record that he was big headed and a weak breast fed baby the bones of his cranium had not fused at the age of three and he was unable to walk until well after the age of 6 11 carlos ii was unable to speak until the age of four and thereafter acquired little language 11 12 he also had prominent dysarthria with his tongue being described as trabado locked with such a fumbling in his speech 11 in addition he was described as showing little interest in his surroundings he had severe intellectual disability and was most commonly described as mentally retarded 13 he had prominent psychiatric disturbance and was melancholic and excessively superstitious 13 he also suffered from chronic and episodic diarrhoea late in life he developed seizures 12 he had frequent pulmonary infections from a young age and at autopsy his lungs were said to be corroded 13 he was also described as being generally swollen suggestive of oedema 12 somewhat interesting too is the description of cutaneous lesions with mentions of a herpetic rash on both cheeks and a discharging wound that oozes underneath the right ear which may represent an abscess or fistula 11 of later monumental historical significance is his well known sterility 11 the autopsy is also reported to have demonstrated a heart the size of a peppercorn intestines rotten and gangrenous a single testicle black as coal and a head full of water 12 most characteristic however is the distinctive facial appearance well documented in multiple portraits there is the strong square jaw the famous habsburg jaw a large tongue plump round lips a cupid bow upper lip a flat broad nose and large forehead all reminiscent of the typical findings of aspartylglucosaminuria figures 1 and 2
