On the news here in Chicago [May 15] a news clip showed an experimental heavy bar being installed (cost $40,000) on a tollway ramp entrance or exit, supposedly to be the first of many to be installed, to control traffic in the event of terrorism, or to control the movements of a terrorist. [and from another source] I just heard this report on ABC evening news, Thursday, [May 19] here in Fort Lauderdale, FL that there is a senator who is attempting to deny access to online governmental and other weather data, with exception of emergency information. Senator Nelson of Florida is objecting saying that such access is vital to Florida's citizens. Gee, can't imagine why this is coming up? [and from another source] Communications trucks will soon blanket the state [May 14] http://www.cleveland.com/ 'Within the next month, the first of 11 mobile communications trucks will be stationed around Ohio to assist law enforcement agencies during emergencies. The diesel-powered trucks each cost $440,000. They were paid for with federal Homeland Security Act grants. The vehicles are expected to help police and other officials communicate and better respond to flooding, ice storms, tornadoes, major crashes, terrorist attacks or other disasters. They give law-enforcement officials the ability to access the Internet, fax, copy, print digital photographs and, maybe most important, put officials from across the state on the same radio frequencies so they can easily communicate. There is a conference room in the truck, and space for a crime lab.' [Note: preparations for crowd control in anticipation of natural disasters.]

[and from another source] http://www.stormingmedia.us/ 'In the summer of 1995 the Air Force chief of staff tasked Air University to conduct a year-long study Air Force 2025 to "generate ideas and concepts on the capabilities the United States will require to possess the dominant air and space forces in the future. A model, Foundations 2025 which reflected the overall values held by the Air Force 2025 participants was developed to quantify and compare different system concepts' contributions to future air and space capabilities.'

Star Wars Episode Seven, Ghosts of the Jedi: 'An unmanned space probe from Earth detects and inadvertently revives an ancient capsule bearing the evil essence of Darth Voranth, ultimate destroyer of the New Federation. Two brothers begin a spiritual journey which could either save or destroy Earth and its young colonies.' [and from another source] 'Lucas´ original plan was that Star Wars would be a triple trilogy. The original trilogy, the just finished prequal trilogy and a sequal trilogy to wrap up the whole story. He said at the time that he already had the entire story arc of all nine movies mapped out before he started the first one.' [and from another source] This Star Wars episode, the point where democracy crumbles before the supposed necessity of defending against endless attacks, is the darkest hour, a hero turning to the Dark Side, the hand of evil at the helm of the congress applauded as more and more military action is announced. Yet this hand of evil is revealed as the very cause of the disturbances, from the start. How similar to the Bush Administration, which is accused of being cognizant of 911 before it occurred, and which has taken full advantage of the powers granted to it to invade oil-producing countries long in their sights. Where the Earth has oil as its predictable energy source, this allowed predictability in the wars in the Middle East, where vast and readily accessible oil resources reside. Thus, the emphasis in prophecy that the Middle East would be at the center of End Times wars. [Note: New ZetaTalk: Star Wars, Today.]

[May 15] The measured drift distance has more than doubled within the last one year and nine month time. The GPS is hanging on my kitchen wall in one position and does not move. The trip distance is measured and recorded each day. During this same time frame the average angle of instantaneous motion has been gradually changing from mostly westerly to mostly south. See One strong possibility is these charts are measuring an increased earth wobble (the figure 8 motion of poles that the Zeta's have talked about). If one averages the predominant earth wobble directions motions then one gets South as the average result. Slow down would result in a predominantly westerly direction. So it looks like this second chart could be showing a change from measuring slowdown to measuring earth's wobble. The first chart says the motions being measured are getting bigger with time by a factor of more than two. These measurements are over and above what is being compensated for by the regular position correction updates done by the GPS managing agencies. [Note: Solid proof of the Earth wobble!]

In late 2004 the hurricane and typhoon season not only broke records, it doubled in ferocity and count. If this was Global Warming, what was the impetus between 2003 and 2004 that caused this increase? On the heels of this, and for no reason geologists could recount, the plate joining India and Australia lifted, tearing along Sumatra, and creating a tsunami in resort areas that the media could not ignore. Volcanic activity had reached the point where the word normal no longer applied, and this roiling magma could certainly not be ascribed to a warming air mass. And the weather was so bizarre and unpredictable that weathermen had become apologetic. Throughout the year, since the Spring of 2004, a landmark seen by all, the Moon, was rounding the Earth during its monthly sojourns at a tilt that placed it where it had never been seen before. Those used to a lifetime of gazing at the Moon in the evening noted this odd placement, but no comment at all in the news about this astonishing event. A threshold had been reached, where the common man was aware that something was wrong, and that they were not being told the truth of the matter. [Note: new ZetaTalk: Threshold Crossed.]

More hurricanes, storms to batter US: officials [May 17] http://www.terradaily.com/ 'More tropical storms and major hurricanes are headed for US coasts this year, for a second straight above-normal hurricane season, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Agency announced Monday. NOAA´s prediction for the 2005 Atlantic hurricane season is for 12 to 15 tropical storms, with seven to nine becoming hurricanes, of which three to five could become major hurricanes. The hurricane season begins on June 1 and ends on November 30. The 25-year period from 1970 to 1994 was relatively inactive, and then in 1995 the climate system shifted to a heavy period of activity. The 2004 storm season saw 15 named storms, of which nine became hurricanes, seven of which were major.' [and from another source] Is Pacific storm Adrian headed for the Caribbean? [May 18] 'Two weeks before hurricane season even begins, a tropical storm has formed. And it's a weird one at that. Pacific Tropical Storm Adrian emerged in the eastern Pacific Ocean on Tuesday. Normally systems in that region are of no concern to Florida, which is still wounded after last summer's four hurricanes. But this one is drifting in our general direction around 8 mph, which is unusual because Pacific storms generally move to the west-northwest, said hurricane specialist Richard Pasch, of the National Hurricane Center in Miami-Dade County.' [Note: starting early and erratic, no chance it will be a lighter season than 2004.]

http://www.earthfiles.com/ 'Equatorial warm water is circulated to the Labrador Sea and Greenland Sea, cools off, and then sea ice forms. The ice does not take up the sea salt which is left behind in the ocean and makes the water denser and it sinks. For more than a century, at least a dozen cylinder-shaped columns of cold water have been sinking into the deep ocean and heading back south toward the Equator which has kept the big conveyor belt of warm-to-cold-to-warm water going in the Atlantic Ocean. In the last few years ­ in fact, since 1997 ­ this area of ice has not formed in the Greenland Sea. Part of the reason is global warming and partly because the wind system has changed. Europe will be back roughly at the same temperature that it is today while everywhere else in the world will be warmer.' Peter Wadhams, Ph.D., Prof. of Ocean Physics and Head of Polar Ocean Physics Group, Dept. of Applied Mathematics and Theoretical Physics, University of Cambridge, Cambridge, England. [Note: a sea near the polar circle does not freeze over, because of a fraction of a degree increase in the air temperature?]

15,000 Flee As Freak Sea Tide Hits - Southern India [May 22] http://dailytelegraph.news.com.au/ AT least 15,000 villagers were evacuated after a freak tide caused a surge of seawater in the southern Indian state of Kerala, triggering memories of December´s devastating tsunami. Seawater crashed into fishing hamlets in Trivandrum, Ernakulam, Alappuzha, Thrissur and Kannur districts. Meteorologists did not say what caused the tide. District officials with the help of the police shifted people living in the coastal belt into 16 makeshift camps as seawater swept into their homes. The high tide has started receding, but people have been asked not to go out into the sea in their fishing boats. [and from another source] High tide triggers panic in parts of Kerala [May 20] http://www.hindustantimes.com/ 'High tide and rising of sea waves caused panic in parts of Kerala coast on Friday, but no casualty or major damage to properties had been reported. On-shore surge of sea waves was reported from across the state - from Poovar near Thiruvanathapuram to Srayeekkal in neighbouring Kollam district and Peringana in Thrissur, some 300 km from the capital, official sources said. Similar waves had struck two coastal hamlets on the outskirts of the city two days back, submerging about 50 huts.' [and from another source] We also predict, as we did last year, that there will be high tides. Not tsunamis, following earthquakes, but unusual high tides. We also predict that there will begin to be reports of whirlpools in the oceans that will startle those who have never seen such a thing in the oceans.

http://www.unknowncountry.com/news/?id=4615 The Google Maps satellite map of Magnolia Park, Florida shows a clear view of an unusual object floating above 39th Street in the town. The shadow on the object is similar to the shadows on the ground, meaning that it is in the atmosphere relatively close to the surface, probably no higher than 20,000 feet. There are no towers or unusual objects in the area that could account for the formation, which appears to be in rapid vibrational movement. Because of the unusual motion visible on its surface, it is not likely that this is a balloon. Without knowing its distance from the ground, it is impossible to determine the size of the object, but it would seem to be quite large, even huge. Calls to individuals living in the area and a search of news sources for 2005 revealed no reports of UFOs over Palm Beach or Magnolia Park this year. The last National UFO Reporting Center report for Palm Beach was in 1999. [Note: appears to be a UFO hiding in a cloud.]

Galloway takes on US oil accusers [May 17] http://www.informationclearinghouse.info/ 'I told the world that Iraq, contrary to your claims did not have weapons of mass destruction. I told the world, contrary to your claims, that Iraq had no connection to al-Qaeda. I told the world, contrary to your claims, that Iraq had no connection to the atrocity on 9/11 2001. I told the world, contrary to your claims, that the Iraqi people would resist a British and American invasion of their country and that the fall of Baghdad would not be the beginning of the end, but merely the end of the beginning. Senator, in everything I said about Iraq, I turned out to be right and you turned out to be wrong and 100,000 people paid with their lives; 1600 of them American soldiers sent to their deaths on a pack of lies; 15,000 of them wounded, many of them disabled forever on a pack of lies. If the world had listened to Kofi Annan, whose dismissal you demanded, if the world had listened to President Chirac who you want to paint as some kind of corrupt traitor, if the world had listened to me and the anti-war movement in Britain, we would not be in the disaster that we are in today. Senator, this is the mother of all smokescreens. Have a look at the real Oil-for-Food scandal. Have a look at the 14 months you were in charge of Baghdad, the first 14 months when $8.8 billion of Iraq's wealth went missing on your watch. Have a look at the oil that you didn't even meter, that you were shipping out of the country and selling, the proceeds of which went who knows where? Have a look at the real scandal breaking in the newspapers today, revealed in the earlier testimony in this committee. That the biggest sanctions busters were not me or Russian politicians or French politicians. The real sanctions busters were your own companies with the connivance of your own Government.' [Note: the highly controlled US Media did not allow his testimony to play, simply repeated the false accusations against him based on forged documents, as demonstrated by a UK libel suit Galloway won.]

Existe nueva y sorprendente evidencia de los acontecimientos del pasado revelada por la tecnología satelital. La corteza terrestre revela todo lo que necesitamos saber sobre la historia de la Tierra . La mayoría de los ríos y cañones se formó en un periodo de tiempo relativamente corto. La existencia de arena fina y arena gruesa en diversas partes del globo, que no tienen ninguna marca de abrasión , demuestra que ellas se formaron por un medios diferentes a la corrosión. Existe suficiente evidencia como para concluir que un cataclismo de proporciones ocurrió en un pasado relativamente reciente de la Tierra. Existen muchos antecedentes , tanto en la conformación geológica de los continentes , como en las cuencas marinas . Pero además también existen huellas en otros cuerpos celestes del sistema solar. La incipiente exploración de los otros planetas también ha revelado que existe evidencia no solo en la Tierra. El Cinturón de Asteroides parece ser los remanentes de un planeta destruido. Urano fue forzado en su posición , en un eje que se inclina 90 grados de la elíptica. Júpiter y Saturno tienen lunas que orbitan en el movimiento retrógrado . Plutón está en una órbita muy elíptica e inclinado. Marte evidencia que tenía agua en abundancia , que se precipitó en un torrente por encima de inmensas áreas , y ahora no la tiene. Los cometas fugaces están conformados de barro , hielo y otros gases, que podrían representar el agua y trozos del planeta que se fugaron al espacio y fueron arrastrados en grandes órbitas elípticas . Impactos de asteroides y cometas son visibles en Marte y en muchas lunas. [Note: new Spanish Blog devoted to Earth changes and the coming cataclysms.]

Henry Hudson Pkwy Still Buried After Collapse [May 13] http://cbsnewyork.com/topstories/ 'A stretch of the northbound Henry Hudson Parkway remained buried under a landslide of rubble Friday after a century-old section of retaining wall crumbled just north of the George Washington Bridge, covering parked cars but miraculously hurting no one. A structural engineer hired by Castle Village apartment complex, above the retaining wall, had spent Thursday morning examining the wall. The complex was evacuated right after the collapse, but residents later were allowed back in. The wall, built between 1905 and 1908, has been a source of concern for residents for years. Chunks fell occasionally and there were signs in recent years that it was shifting.' [Note: New York City is in the stretch zone.]

Whales 'led astray by magnetism' http://news.bbc.co.uk/ 'Analysis of whales stranded between 1712 and 2003 shows that more are stranded when solar activity is high. Writing in the Journal of Sea Research, scientists propose that whales use the Earth's magnetic field to assist navigation like homing pigeons do. As the Sun disrupts the magnetic field whales can become confused, they say. The numbers of cetacean - whale, dolphin and porpoise - strandings around the UK have doubled over the last 10 years.'

Britain faces big chill as ocean current slows [May 8] http://www.timesonline.co.uk/ 'Climate change researchers have detected the first signs of a slowdown in the Gulf Stream - the mighty ocean current that keeps Britain and Europe from freezing. They have found that one of the "engines" driving the Gulf Stream - the sinking of supercooled water in the Greenland Sea - has weakened to less than a quarter of its former strength.
