asteroid 2005 yu55: how big is huge asteroid?

Near Earth Object Asteroid 2005 YU55 will pass within moon's orbit on Nov 8th at a distance no closer than 203,000 miles from Earth. An animation of the close flyby is available here. A Space.com article, "Huge Asteroid to Pass Near Earth in November," terms the quarter mile diameter asteroid as huge and on the potentially dangerous list. There will be radar studies done by Arecibo and Goldstone Observatories of this unusual opportunity. How close will the asteroid be to the Moon? The only source providing a distance here, says, 149,000 miles. You will still need a telescope to view it late on Nov 8th or early Nov 9th.

kissinger in charge of flying saucers program

A recent article at UFO Digest, "Dr. Henry Kissinger's UFO Role Revealed," quotes wife of late Dr Eric Wang, who reverse engineered UFOs at Kirtland AFB, NM before his death in 1960. "He [Kissinger] is deeply involved in the Flying Saucer Program...In fact, he was completely in charge," revealed Mrs. Wang in 1984. Tony Brunt, a New Zealand UFO researcher, writing in Part 4 of a series of small ebooks, (.pdf download), "Secret History And Why Barack Obama Must End It," is the very readable source--a must read! Who was Henry Kissinger performing duties on behalf of? It's likely, Kissinger played a top intelligence role. Was it primarily to place Paperclip Scientists? Was it to devise a strategy for dealing with extraterrestrial threat? Was it mainly a psychological operation?

A few articles worth your time are William Cooper's "Majestic-12 and Secret Government". There's also an entity called  PI-40 to consider and Kissinger's role as "PI-40's Master Strategist". Kissinger may have worn all these hats? A deeper drilling into interlaced issues of UFOs, reverse engineering, and ET, reveals obfuscation that may be little more than a psyop?

weather warfare: great flood of 1993 revisited

The recent flooding of Mississippi and Missouri Rivers in 2011 makes a review of the 'Great Flood of 1993' a pertinent topic worthy of attention. In an article titled "Tesla Weather Control Over America", researcher C.B. Baker noted, "the Midwest Deluge had anomalous characteristics that were similar to many previous weather-war operations. Across the Midwest corn-belt, it has rained in Biblical proportions - 49 straight days, often in torrents (18 July 1993, NEW YORK TIMES). 'We've got flooding where we haven't seen much before (said Lary Black, a hydrologist for the National Weather Service' (7 July 1993, NEW YORK TIMES)."

The article reveals, surprisingly, "the United States and the Soviet Union began secret cooperation on world weather-engineering in 1971...[and reports there's been]...continuous weather-engineering over the Northern Hemisphere since the early 1970's...". Does this cooperation represent a worldwide effort to remove people from their land?

"The Tesla transmitters create giant standing ELF waves that have repeatedly formed huge blocking-system that alter the path of the high altitude jet stream and dam up the normal flow of weather fronts. The Soviet ELF transmitters have been able to create droughts that lasted for months and even years, as well as being able to GENERATE DEVASTATING FLOODS." In the 1993 Midwest Flood the article reveals " the area west of the giant standing wave blocking unending rain and the area east of that standing wave system experienced ceaseless drought." Any reader can see with sufficient energy, weather manipulation isn't difficult to achieve. You have such a tool in the HAARP facility in Alaska. GWEN towers are also used for weather manipulation, according to Baker.

The present writer wonders whether this happened last winter in the Rocky Mountains, where huge snowfall amounts, created record runoffs this spring? You combine technology with environmental fanatics, who hold release of water by the Missouri Dam System to simulate "the natural flooding" for the benefit of wildlife, it whets the imagination! The thought of conspiracy is fueled further when homeowners in the flooded areas are sent letters asking if they want to sell. Nah, that crass move is just called an error when public calls them on it - they'll just wait until next time!

blue lightning: a new esoteric nuclear reaction

Freelance journalist Yoichi Shimatsu reports on a new esoteric form of nuclear reaction called "blue lightning" in recent article, "Why Underground Entombment At Fukushima Daiichi Won't Work". "A shocking discovery at Fukushima was that zirconium (used as a 'transparent' - allowing passage of neutrons - protective cladding around the fuel rods) when superheated can become a catalyst for an esoteric type of nuclear fission. At extreme temperatures, zirconium ignites even the tiniest quantities of airborne nuclear isotopes, releasing 'blue lightning'. This means that zirconium catalysis could also be occurring underground, triggering mini-fission events. This sort of nuclear reaction is terra incognita, a yet unexplored frontier of physics, the joker in the deck."

The Hong Kong-based journalist also argues why entombment isn't solution for Fukushima nuclear plant. Shimatsu points out the weak soil structure will not support entombment. Fukushima has only a few meters of dry land before groundwater is hit. There is also constant specter of earthquake damage. Shimatsu offers an original solution to dilemma. "The one possible solution ... is the stuff that propelled Ronald Reagan into nationwide fame as host of GE Family Theater: borax. 

"The alkali salt used in laundry powder consists of about 15 percent boron-10, the neutron-absorbing mineral used in control rods inside nuclear reactors. Boron intercepts neutrons, thereby reducing the number of fission events and thus cooling the loose uranium. Borax dissolves in water, meaning it can be poured into the water seeping underground through turbine rooms and the maze of broken pipes. Around the hot spots, the mineral salt will turn solid, trapping and separating uranium particles. The crystalized borax will fill the steam-created gaps in the soil, strengthening the overall weight-bearing structure. The hard angular crystals can also resist seismic movement, reducing the problem of liquefaction."

Is Shimatsu onto something? The present writer remembers Reagan peddling soap on television, in the sixties, but it was mostly on Death Valley Days. It would be miraculous if a simple mineral salt could stop radiation at Fukushima!

kecksburg revisited on ground zero: live with stan gordon

The 1965 Kecksburg UFO sighting remains one of the top incidents in history. Clyde Lewis writes nice summary of the Kecksburg Acorn "FALLEN ANGEL CASE: KECKSBURG 2011," asking all the right questions. Lewis sees a possible connection to 1947 Roswell craft, sent to Wright Patterson AFB in Ohio and the Kecksburg, PA incident. The Kecksburg UFO with " hierogylphs" on its base, was  hauled away on a flatbed truck in a matter of hours after the late afternoon crash of December 9. A truck driver reported, two years later, a large delivery of ceramic bricks to Wright Patterson, where he saw "the acorn" and left with impression bricks were meant to entomb the object. John Murphy, news director at nearby WHJB, was one of first to reach the site and produced a documentary, "Object in the Woods."

Murphy received a visit by two "Men in Black," just prior to airing and never seemed the same to coworkers. A highly edited version of the documentary was only televised. The newsman grew despondent and reluctant to speak of the incident.  By February 1969, Murphy was dead, killed by a hit and run driver while on vacation. Men in Black, had also, been on hand shortly after the crash to turn people away. John Murphy's fate remains one of the most shocking and sinister aspects of the incident.

The Kecksburg Acorn dismissed, at times, as re-entry of a acorn-shaped  Russian satellite, Cosmos 96  The Russian angle would help account for unreadable writing on the UFO.  Other sources contend Russian satellite re-entered hours earlier in Canada. Lewis includes reference to Victor Schauberger, Nazi-era German scientist, who felt descriptions like the acorn were his repulsine design.

Clyde Lewis interview of Stan Gordon, a four decade researcher, adds invaluable perspective to the Kecksburg incident. A previous entry provides additional information on 1965 sighting.You'll need to listen to Clyde's interview of Gordon to get the reptilian angle! It's good stuff!

modern ufo era dawns with 1947 maury island, kenneth arnold sightings

The Maury Island Incident of June 21, 1947 and Kenneth Arnold sighting near Mt Rainier WA, three days later, represent the dawn of modern UFO era. The latter incident is also when "saucers" came into the American lexicon, a description given by Arnold of their flight, "[like] a saucer skipped across water". The Maury Island case remains an enigma as many believe it a hoax. Harold Dahl spotted several donut-shaped UFOs with one in trouble, while at work on a boat near the island. A slag-like material dropped from the distressed UFO that struck Dahl's boat, injuring his son and killing the family dog. Fred Crisman, who was Dahl's boss, is informed of the boat's damage. The story gets weird when Dahl receives an implied threat from a "Men In Black" (MIB), who invited Dahl to breakfast the very next morning. Dahl reports later his son disappeared to turn up waiting tables in Montana without any memory how he got there?

A very good account of the Maury Island incident is provided by WEIRD U.S. website. "Dahl and Crisman sent a package to publisher Ray Palmer in Chicago...A few weeks later, Palmer contacted Kenneth Arnold, who had begun investigating UFOs...Arnold arrived in Tacoma in late July with airline pilot E.J. Smith...On the afternoon of July 31, Captain Lee Davidson and First Lieutenant Frank Brown of the U.S. Army Air Force flew up to Tacoma from Hamilton Field, California...In addition to being pilots, the two men were intelligence specialists. They met with Arnold, Smith, and Crisman for several hours. The two officers were in a hurry to return to base and participate in ceremony and celebration of the Air Force's formal split from the Army the next day. Davidson and Brown never made it as their B-25 bomber went down near Kelso, WA in early hours of August 1st to become Air Force's first fatalities. A UFO Hunter episode suggests if the metal slag onboard the B-25 were magnetized, it may have ignited a fire in the plane's electrical components?

The overshadowing figure is Fred Crisman, who keeps showing up, in Dallas, New Orleans, years later back in Tacoma much as you would expect from an agency asset. Hal McKenzie suspects in a Conspiracy Plant article on the Kenn Thomas book, "Maury Island UFO," Fred Crisman is a key figure, "some spooks haunt both JFK and UFO coverups". Kenn Thomas has also a new book on the coverups, "JFK and UFO". The present writer leans towards a campaign to coverup testing of experimental craft by aerospace companies in area.

Kenneth Arnold investigated UFOs, after his sighting, to write story in Palmer publication FATE magazine, "I Did See the Flying Disks," in the very first issue (pictured). Arnold also wrote a book in 1952 about his experience, "The Coming of the Saucers". Please enjoy the following 1950 Edwin R Murrow interview of Arnold (mp3).

Ground Zero Live with Clyde Lewis interviewed author Kenn Thomas and Bill Birnes, show host of UFO Hunters, providing additional insight into both the incident and the B-25 crash. It's all good stuff!

a new view of stuxnet role in fukushima disaster

Freelance journalist Jim Stone has recently uncovered new information and blows the lid off Fukushima "natural" disaster! In an appropriately titled article by Stone, "Did Dimona Dozen Murder Fukushima 50," simply deconstructs tragedy with a step by step progression of events that have ring of truth! A crucial turn was when Japan offered to enrich uranium for Iran. "Immediately, Israel sets up front companies masquerading as security companies, and one of them succeeds in getting a security contract at a Japanese nuclear facility. 4 months later the Dimona Dozen shows up, and under the cover of a security contract gets unlimited access to the heart of Fukushima. They plant the virus, install real cameras outside the facility, and functional poorly disguised nuke cameras inside the facility. In addition to this, they install an unauthorized data connection to allow control of all the guts of the facility via the virus."

The alleged operation is a movie script comparable to 9/11, a tactical nuke set off in the Japan trench the cause of the tsunami. Stone draws attention to photos and overlooked by others: there is little quake damage as the tsunami arrives on coast. Further, there is little panic as would be expected from a 8.9 quake on the Richter scale. The freelance journalist found US Geological Survey (USGS) documents, showing quake to be a 6.67 and more consistent with what is on many amateur videos taken that day. People would not be able to ride out a huge quake as many do on the videos, believes Stone. The Japanese seem unaware of a huge quake and pictures show old concrete structures intact as the tsunami inundates them. Israel simply waited for a natural event in the quake-ridden country to provide cover for their tactical nuke, according to Stone.

A few days later, a second detonation takes place (pictured) inside reactor 3, which had been equipped with huge security cameras with a striking resemblance to a nuclear device by the Israeli security firm..  This was accomplished by an unauthorized datalink via the Stuxnet virus admitted to by Israel.  It's believed all the redundant back up systems failed at the nuclear plant because of Stuxnet. In similar manner to how Iran's Bushehr centrifuges were damaged, Stuxnet took over Siemens SCADA software to send commands that eventually damage equipment while bogus normal readings sent to controls.  Dr Brooks Agnew reveals on X-Squared Radio a controlling stake in Siemens was acquired by Israeli corporate interests, some time before 3-11. Was this the fact that spurred Germany's Merkel to shut down older reactors and to begin a move away from nuclear power?

The most colorful aspect of the alleged operation, is, "Israeli Prime Minister calls Japan, and says TAKE THAT for offering help to Iran, and ya know, there are FIVE MORE NUKES in the ocean off the coast of Japan, and we are going to set those off and destroy your coastal cities if you do not forget that 6.67, and say it was a 9 to cover for tsunami effects. AND NOW we are going to make your people DEMAND you move away from nuclear power so you can NEVER threaten us like that again. We are BLOWING UP FUKUSHIMA DIIACHI and you are going to go along with whatever story we tell you to. SO THERE!!"

Jim Stone provides a theory that fits the facts, which doesn't make it accurate. It should remind everyone to question the official story as it clearly does not add up! Stuxnet insured reactor meltdown but still took a nuclear device to blow up the evidence not just a nuclear reaction. The present writer believes Japanese government must be operating under duress to allow radiation leak at Fukushima to continue without more dramatic efforts to mitigate crisis! A very readable version of Stone's account is available at NaturalNews.com. A recent Rumor News Mill interview of freelance journalist Jim Stone is available here.

space shuttle atlantis touches down, ending an era of adventure in space

nasa employees weep at kennedy space centre as half a century of american dominance in space comes to a close

from guardian: She roared into the heavens a fortnight ago atop a column of fire, enthralling a million spectators as she set off on her final voyage. But the space shuttle Atlantis slipped quietly back to port on Thursday at the end of her five-million-mile journey, gently lowering the curtain on three extraordinary decades of adventure in human space flight.

NASA's space shuttle era officially came to a close at 5.57am (10.57am BST) when the orbiter and its crew of four astronauts touched down at a remote runway in the northern reaches of Florida's Kennedy Space Centre in Florida, watched by a few hundred space agency workers and reporters who turned out before dawn to witness a moment of history.

Like a ship's bell ringing a vessel safely back home, two deafening sonic booms pierced the Florida sky to signal Atlantis's otherwise silent arrival, and the last few seconds of the 135th and final mission since the first launch of Columbia in April 1981.

It was day of celebration and raw emotion, with NASA employees openly weeping on the runway in front of the newly retired shuttle, and Chris Ferguson, the Atlantis commander, paying a moving tribute to it and the rest of the spacecraft fleet. "The space shuttle has changed the way we view the world and it's changed the way we view our universe," he said moments after landing.

elenin faq for the worried

Is 2012 Doomsday to occur instead in October 2011? Universe Today presents Astroblogger Ian Musgrave's FAQ fact sheet about Comet Elenin to dismiss nonsense and quell concerns. Musgrave points out we've been closer to other comets with no ill effects. Elenin's tidal force will be one billionth of the Moon's effect on the Earth. Musgrave does a good job to marshall facts, dismissing hysteria of "Doom and Gloom Brigades". Musgrave uses Sky Map to argue alignments were nowhere near the times of the Chilean earthquake or the Tsunami that hit Japan. The article also points out, "we have been through bigger and denser comet tails before with no effect whatsoever," the Great Comet of 1861 is used for comparison. "For a while the Earth was actually within the comet's tail, and the inhabitants of this planet had a brief but giddy view of streams of cometary material converging towards the distant nucleus. By day also the Sun was dimmed as the Earth plowed through the comet's gas and dust."

Musgrave's FAQ sheet is, on the surface, a well-organized attempt to dismiss concerns about Comet Elenin on a point by point basis. A link is provided to a recent Astronomy Beat issue (pdf) with David Morrison of the NASA Ames Research Center, comforting the public there's no need for concern. An image linked is of a second object in the sky (pictured), which is dismissed as lens flare. A recent video from Neumayer Research Station is much harder to ignore, however. Public concern is not completely without merit. A simple observation should be kept in mind that Earth's orbit, will take it near a comet--a real object of ice and rock. The tail may be as near a complete vacuum and still show up as a coma as the fact sheet argues, but each comet possesses individual composition and each comet pass a unique combination of forces. Comet Elenin will pass closer to the Moon and may influence our satellite in unanticipated ways. We are near the galactic plane and increased gravitational forces, are a possibility. The coherent catastrophism hypothesis remains only a faint possibility but a distinct one.

The Universe Today blog entry provides valuable links for those interested in astronomy such as Stellarium, a free planetarium program. The fact sheet represents an astronomy lesson in one visit and worthwhile. The present writer finds images of the Svalbard seed vault and the growth industry of underground housing construction, remain stuck in the back of the mind. You have to ask if there's no concern why the efforts?  These projects do represent preparations for a catastrophic event.  Does it also explain the current geopolitical irresponsibility as well?

comets and coherent catastrophism: elenin and great comet of 1811

Are there similarities between the Great Comet of 1811 and Elenin? There is a buzz on the net about parallels between the two comets such as flooding, low sun activity, a cold winter and earthquakes. "Most geologists and scientists believe that most earthquakes occur during new and full moons. With new moons the most likely. But when you have new and full moons on days that also equal their apogee or perigee, then you have a 'supermoon', this is what some of them, Jim Berkland for example, believe is the window for the most dangerous...in Oct., we have a full moon on the 11th, with the moon apogee on Oct 12th. We have a new moon on Oct 26th, but we also have the moon perigee on, yep, Oct 26th. Now, the JPL say that comet Elenin will make its closest approach on Oct 16th. Right in the middle of the full and new moon and the apogee and perigee, leading up to the 26th that is the new moon, perigee, and passing comet all on the same day. Not saying it means anything but kinda makes you wonder?" The last observations do make for an interesting October! Comet Elenin reaches closest approach to Earth on Oct. 16th in the middle of the full and new moons, apogee and perigee, which provide additional gravitational stresses on a heavenly body such as a comet. An event where the Earth crosses a comet's path leads to a hypothesis called coherent catastrophism.

The hypothesis attempts to account for past destruction observed on the Earth and Moon.   Catastrophism is an idea the inner solar system is subjected, at times, to destructive events as a result of incoming comets from the Kuiper Belt and Oort Cloud. The comets are drawn into the inner solar system due to a black hole at the Milky Way's center.   An increased gravitational force is exerted by the black hole as our solar system crosses the galactic ecliptic. More specifically, it's a hypothesis that gravitational forces due to alignments break up a comet and fragments impact the Earth over a short period of time with cataclysmic results. It's termed coherent because several "impactors" result from the breakup of a single object and arrive together over a short time span.

Is this the real terror behind the Elenin hype? Indigenous peoples throughout history have considered comets as harbingers of evil. Are we to experience a comet apocalypse in October? Are there possibly other agendas at work with ulterior motives such as the need to build a defensive response to destroy Near Earth Objects (NEOs) that threaten us with destruction?

paleofuture: a look back to retro-futures

Matt Novak, editor of Paleofuture magazine, finds interesting images from the past with a view to the future! Jean-Marc Cote, a French artist, was commissioned in 1899 to produce a deck of cards to depict life in the year 2000, as a French celebration of the 20th Century. A single deck of cards was ever produced due to the company going out of business. Novak finds a book by Isaac Asimov, "'Futuredays' is a card-by-card analysis of these retro-futuristic artifacts and does a wonderful job of putting them into historical context for modern readers." The present writer sees these art forms as very interesting on a psychological level. Novak collects items from the past categorized by decade dating back to the 1870s. There is even Paleofuture TV. It's good stuff. The present writer wonders only, if Novak represents a paleofuturist or would digging up items from the past about the future be a paleofuture archaeologist?

astronomers should be glad to see intense interest in space

David Morrison, an astronomer at NASA Ames Research Center, compensates for those with little in their skeptical toolkit by lambasting Nibiru-Earth collision hysteria on the net. "Morrison estimates that there are 2 million websites discussing the impending Nibiru-Earth collision. He receives, on average, five email inquiries about Nibiru every day. 'At least a once a week I get a message from a young person — as young as 11 — who says they are ill and/or contemplating suicide because of the coming doomsday,' Morrison told Life's Little Mysteries, a sister site to SPACE.com." The present writer did a quick search to see how many hits come up for "Nibiru-Earth collision," approximately 703,000 hits, according to Google's search engine.The present writer is just following the skeptic's approach with a little fact check!

Morrison gives a detailed recap of Planet X/Nibiru's erroneous and constantly changing story. It seems odd, the author is so familiar with a little regarded subject? Morrison concludes his hit piece, "..they [Nibiru Doomsday purveyors] are purposely taking advantage of people who aren't able to distinguish credible sources from crackpot ones. 'This is especially a problem for young people, which is why I am so angry at those who target children,' he said." Wow! An image of Nibiru Doomsday theorists lurking in the shadows to spring on innocent prepubescent teens to hawk DVDs, comes to mind.

The present writer remains unconvinced a Nibiru Doomsday video would be any more deleterious than a rock or rap DVD? Oh, rock and rap are considered deleterious to a young person's mental health. There's always Prozac? Oops again, the Prozac warning label includes an increased risk of suicide for young people! It's easy to see all kinds of unhealthy influence which target the unsuspecting. The present writer suspects least damaging choice, would be the Nibiru video over the rock or rap DVD - or the psychoactive Big Pharma product!

Why is Morrison so angry? The public's interest in space exploration has exploded with all the doomsayers! The present writer will conclude where Morrison began with Carl Sagan's baloney detection kit, it's baloney!

elenin arrives oct. 28, 2011: hype or history?

A Camelot Roundtable video conference, Elenin (link to synopsis), offers new input into mystery comet headed towards Earth. Michael Salla, of exopolitics.org, provides nice summary of presenters in a recent Examiner article. Richard C. Hoagland began conference with "...presentation on the significance of Elenin's orbit, and why this pointed to...either an artificial object under intelligent control (an ancient spacecraft) or a natural body (a comet) that has been deliberately launched on an artificial orbit. He placed special emphasis on Elenin's perihelion (closest point to the sun) on September 11, 2011 as evidence that this was a result of artificial design to draw attention to the profound geopolitical events that occurred ten years earlier." Hoagland also noted coincidence on November 9, 2011 of FEMA Homeland Security Test and Asteroid 2005YU55 passing within 200,000 miles of Earth.

Keith Hunter, author and writer at Ancient World Mysteries website, offered his view, "Elenin is a small mass that could do something unusual if caught up in powerful harmonic configurations." This theme seemed built upon by Conference organizer Kerridy Cassidy, Richard C Hoagland and Dr. Joseph Farrell, who dismiss Elenin is a brown dwarf but see it exerting powerful gravitational effects through gravity waves. They offer explanation that this may be possible through torsion field physics. Salla is critical that Dr Mensur Omerbashich's observations on incidence of alignments and seismic activity, was not included more in discussions. Andy Loyd, Dark Star author, is also of opinion Elenin is a sub-brown dwarf. Dr Carl Johan Calleman, author and Mayan Calendar researcher believes, "..the world will enter a New Age based on an expanding 'unity consciousness.' While the precise ending of the Mayan Calendar is disputed by others advocating a December 21, 2012 end date, Calleman has produced cogent arguments for the October 2011 end date."

The Camelot Roundtable concludes Comet Elenin possesses artificial attributes, is of small mass, yet exerts strong gravitational influence effects. Elenin will pass closest to the Sun on September 11, 2011, a reader wonders what effect the comet may have on the Sun? The comet's closest approach to Earth is on October 28, 2011, and again, wonder what gravitational effect will be upon Earth--if any! Are we going to die from a solar flare's direct hit or a huge earthquake and tsunamis? November 9th will bring the asteroid's pass close to the moon? Will this near miss provoke a campaign to increase humanity's capabilities to knock out "dangerous" asteroids?  The secret agenda revealed by Wernher Von Braun to Carol Rosin to weaponize space.

A Universe Today article, "Comet Elenin: Just Passing By," is probably the reality. Humanity likes small doses of adrenaline at times, and why, horror films and sports are popular. An adrenaline rush may help explain the Comet Elenin media frenzy, but keep in mind the importance of a perceived threat to those who want to control our fates!

south pole timelapse video reveals nibiru trailing sun

Donnie Gillson of Freedomizer Radio, provides analysis of strange anamolies captured on Neumayer Station webcam at the South Pole. Gillson,  an Elenin researcher, attempts a step-by-step approach to several anomalies captured by the Neumayer Station webcam. The 15 minute record of images captured July 14th, begin with three researchers in radiation suits pointing at the sky! The station seems inundated with light energy at points. Gillson does commendable job, asking questions but several strange images defy explanation. The Elenin researcher believes Nibiru (pictured), is trailing the Sun in one image, he also points out a large object next to the Sun in another and to a "second Sun" later in video. Gillson believes researchers are dumbfounded, and of course, the truth held from the rest of the us! Was the research station hit by a solar flare? Is the area inundated with ionized radiation and reason for protective suits? The images are, undeniably, some of the strangest ever! It's fascinating and must see!

phoenix haboob lights

The Haboob video posted on the CNN website, created a stir when lights were spotted! Is it another Phoenix Lights sighting in the making? Jason McClellan at openminds.tv does an excellent job explaining the two lights were probably a helicopter (stationary light just above rolling clouds) and an airliner that had to make another pass at the airport (moving light at very top of picture). Kathie Bechmann's commentary on CNN video, would have you believe it's an UFO from all appearances. A Russian Today video provides perspective that probably came from the stationary light (a helicopter) of the plane flying through the Haboob. A viewer can be fooled by an optical illusion.

rocks on the brain: dawn mission to enter vesta orbit soon

Do you think anyone that's interested in the Dawn mission at Vesta has rocks on their brain? How can anyone get worked up about a rock in the asteroid belt, you ask? You must wonder though: What might be discovered in the next year that Dawn orbits the asteroid? The latest NASA update on the Dawn Mission reports that "...the spacecraft to be captured into orbit at approximately 10 p.m. PDT Friday, July 15 (1 a.m. EDT Saturday, July 16)...When Vesta captures Dawn into its orbit, engineers estimate there will be approximately 9,900 miles (16,000 kilometers) between them."

'fight the net': pentagon unveils 'defensive' cyberwar strategy

from time: The Pentagon rolled out its new cyber-defense strategy Thursday, hyping it with the news that foreign hackers (from an unidentified country) invaded the computers of one of its (unidentified) contractors in March and pilfered 24,000 sensitive documents in one fell swoop. Cyber-security is a Pentagon growth area, make no mistake about. Lord knows, I've contributed to the deluge. But it's one of those arcane areas where progress is hard to measure. Is the threat as dire as sometimes portrayed? It's important to realize that the Pentagon doesn't store real secrets on networks linked to the Internet. Nonetheless, the press can't resist stories about offensive cyber warfare. Deputy Defense Secretary William Lynn, who unveiled the new cyber strategy, told an audience at the National Defense University in Washington that "crucial" files -- not "secret" or "top secret" -- have been stolen in recent years. Much taken was of little value, he said: "But a great deal of it concerns our most sensitive systems, including aircraft avionics, surveillance technologies, satellite communications systems and network security protocols." Over breakfast Thursday, Marine General James Cartwright, the vice chairman of the Joint Chiefs, said the Pentagon's current emphasis on cyber defense needs to change. It's currently 90% defensive and 10% offensive; he said those numbers need to be swapped. "This strategy talks more about how we are going to defend the networks," he said. "The next iteration will have to start to talk about here's a strategy that says to the attacker, ‘If you do this, the price to you is going to go up.'" Safe bet the price to us is going to go up, too.

james fox ufo video: 'i know what i saw'

The I Know What I Saw website provides the following synopsis of a UFO film by James Fox. "'I Know What I Saw' is a new UFO documentary guaranteed to change the way we see the universe. Director, James Fox assembled the most credible UFO witnesses from around the world to testify at The National Press Club in Washington D.C.: Air Force Generals, astronauts, military and commercial pilots, government and FAA officials from seven countries tell stories that, as Governor Fife Symington from Arizona stated, 'will challenge your reality'." The film includes interviews of former Iranian pilot Parviz Jafari, who related his 1976 UFO encounter over Tehran. There's also several interviews of Stephenville, TX residents, who witnessed in January 2008 a huge silent UFO there. The descriptions are very similiar in both the Stephenville, TX UFO and those of the craft to literally fly over much of Arizona in the Phoenix Lights case. It's a huge dull matte black finish or bluish black UFO that blocks out much of the sky and has a wavy "heat mirage" image quality. The present writer keeps thinking the military is laughing at us "plebs". A well-done film that is well worth 90 minutes of your time.

dear netflix: people really hate the price hike & threaten to cancel

but #NavigatingNetflix will always be free...

from reuters: Subscribers have been up in arms since Netflix announced a changed pricing structure on Tuesday that will raise the price for a combined DVD and streaming subscription from $10 to $16 a month. The company is also offering DVD-only and streaming-only subscriptions for $8 a month each, but most people don’t seem to like the prospect of having to choose: The Netflix blog has seen more than 4,200 comments, most of which are negative, with a number of customers threatening to cancel.

Countless consumers have also turned to the company’s Facebook page, with negative feedback far outweighing any other kind of response. And on Twitter, the discussion around the plan changes has made “DVDs” an unlikely trending topics in a number of cities... [see also "dear netflix"]

What does all of this uproar mean for Netflix? Of course, it’s unlikely that any price increase would be met with a thumbs-up by many consumers. However, the intensity of the backlash seems to suggest that Netflix really does have a problem.

Netflix has long enjoyed a lot of good will from its customers, simply due to the breadth of its DVD offering. Consumers tolerated the lack of selection in the company’s streaming catalog because it was seen as a value-add to their existing DVD subscription. Recent hiccups, such as Sony removing titles from the streaming catalog, also didn’t lead to many complaints.

However, with streaming and DVDs effectively being separated from each other and users being forced to pay twice as much, many customers are seemingly losing their patience with Netflix. The company may have to go back and do a better job at explaining these changes — or even unveil some great new streaming catalog additions before the September 1 deadline that will force people to pay more, choose between streaming and DVDs or cancel altogether.

secret world war between hostile greys/dracos and humanity

Has World War III already started? Is it between the United States and Russia or China--or even Iran? No, Michael Prince informs the war already underway, is, between humanity and hostile ETs, more specifically Greys and Dracos! Alfred Lambremont Webre writes in an Examiner article, the story of a test tube baby, alien-DNA enhanced, trained to be an assassin cyborg super solider. Whew! Michael Prince born in 1976 in London, asserts, he's a product of Project Mannequin. The project started in 1972 is still run from an underground base AL/499 in Peasemore, Berkshire, England, according to his book, "James Casbolt MI6 - Buried Alive" (ch 1-7 pdf). The project is a mind control and genetic manipulation program! Michael Prince aka James Casbolt relates his personal progression from test tube baby, training subjected to growing up and implants. Webre, who lives in British Columbia, covers story that has much of its roots at Fort Nelson, BC.


Michael Prince's super soldier story is so wild, a reader is tempted to dismiss it if not push it actively out of mind! The details offered, unfortunately, have a disquieting element of plausibility. Princes' "tale" includes widespread NSA operations in other countries and the reference to the mind control facility at Fort Nelson as a "Nazi SS Q552 trauma-based mind control training base." Prince aka Casbolt reveals in this interview, borders have little meaning and Nazis are still around. Human affairs are proving more complex than a line on a map!  Prince attests George H W Bush and the Queen Mother were major programmers.

In the book, Prince hints at the truth behind intelligence agencies, "forget about James Bond movies; much of the secret service apparatus in the U.K and U.S is an occult, pedophile network run by corrupt factions of the “Illuminated” degrees of Freemasonry (33rd degree and above)." The most interesting observation made by Prince is when he relates the, "..most important technology the intelligence community uses is scalar/radio sound based." The author provides some details how sound relates to mind control and PSI abilities, also, part of Project Mannequin.

One of Prince's roles as a super soldier was to communicate telepathically with Pleiadians. Prince is of the belief Pleiadian ships surround our planet--the good guys--opposed to the inhumane methods of the Grey/Draco faction. “The simple answer is that I’ve been in direct contact with them since I was child. Part of my role in Project Mannequin was to make telepathic contact with the large Pleiadian mother ships in the outer atmosphere and then pass the messages onto Commander Clavius and other people. This was all done while I was in the tripseat."

The Grey/Draco faction possesses a formidable weapon, a network of crystal-based computers that includes HAARP. The network is referred to as the Tablets of Destiny, which Pleiadians must respect. "Michael Prince’s message is ultimately optimistic. He states that the Military Industrial Extraterrestrial Complex [MIEC] is currently using a “Tablets of Destiny” supercomputer system that includes the HAARP-aerosol/chemtrails and Artificial Intelligence mind control system to attempt planetary ecocide and genocide. Mr. Prince states that the Pleiadian fleet is here to liberate humanity and will be successful." Prince is confident humanity will prevail because of our superior survival dynamics.

This account doesn't do complete justice to Prince's story, an alternative interpretation of the hidden history of alien-human relations is also provided. Prince relates it was the Pleiadians, who declined to enter into a treaty in 1954, because of mankind's refusal of Pleiadian's demand to disarm our nuclear arsenals. Is Prince's story a psyop? The present writer likes Webre and his views but his background of Yale and Stanford Research Institute raises red flags!

inuits attest earth may have tilted on axis

Is a pole shift underway? Has a small shift already occurred? Inuit Eskimos believe Earth may have tilted on its axis. The Sun is higher in sky with more direct sunlight and sets in different location on horizon, according to these hunters, who watch their environment closely. Eskimos also relate strong east winds dominate and bring bad weather, there are more south winds and few north winds. The pole shift theory has become a cottage industry, but one place you can start your own research is at the National Geographic website.

gilgamesh & search for life, part 2

In the Epic of Gilgamesh, part 1, the semi-divine Sumerian King made a hasty retreat from 'The Landing Place' in the Cedar Mountains after Inanna asked Anu to send the Bull of Heaven to smite the King for rebuffing her.The Bull is slain by Enkidu after catching up with Gilgamesh and his android companion, outside of Uruk. At the Abode of the Gods, the Supreme Gods considered Inanna's complaint and deliberated whether the King and his companion should die? Anu communicated to Enlil, his son, both should die because of the loss of  Huwawa and the Bull of Heaven. Enlil felt Gilgamesh should live. Shamash/Utu pointed out Gilgamesh consented to these acts and Enkidu was his innocent companion alongside to aid him. A compromise was reached and punishment meted out for Enkidu, was to serve hard labor in the depth of the mines.


Gilgamesh loathe to part company with Enkidu, had an idea. The Land of the Mines was not far from the Land of the Living, a place where the gods took humans who were granted eternal youth. The elders of Uruk and his mother Ninsun advised Gilgamesh to seek permission from Shamash/Utu for this adventure. Gilgamesh begged Shamash to be allowed the journey to seek life. Shamash doubted the King's worthiness but showed mercy to his tearful pleas and granted permission.

The Supreme Gods decreed Enkidu would be called upon by two winged emissaries and one would transport him to the mines. Gilgamesh warned already by Shamash the path to the Land of the Living would be hard, desolate and the place guarded by fearsome 'Mighty Ones', who could unleash scorching fire and lightning. The Sumerian King sought an easier route by building a boat and enlisted 50 young men to row and set sail for his destination. Enlil then wondered why Enkidu sailed on a royal ship, while his punishment was supposed to be a personal escort to the mines? The wrath of the Gods soon followed.

A fearsome watchman positioned atop a mound, who like Huwawa could emit rays, must have challenged them as Enkidu pleaded with Gilgamesh to turn back. The King directed his royal ship to shore, instead, so he could subdue the adversary - be it man or god. The ship's sail suddenly split and capsized, as if, by an unseen force. All aboard ship drowned, except for Gilgamesh and Enkidu, who were able to swim ashore. They swam back down to the shipwreck to survey an eery scene of the men still at their posts almost alive in appearance. Enkidu succumbed shortly thereafter to weakness and died along the shore. Gilgamesh mourned his friend for seven days, "until a worm fell out of his nose." An aggrieved Gilgamesh wandered aimlessly for a time a deep lament to his departed friend. Gilgamesh confronted by mortality and deterred from his goal again of finding an elusive immortality.

Gilgamesh recovered his resolve to defeat death and journeyed west by following the Sun on unbeaten paths. At one point, as he neared habitation, the King saw lions from a mountain pass. Gilgamesh  prayed in fear, and as he rested had a dream, which he interpreted as encouragement that he would "rejoice in Life." Gilgamesh's epic battle and triumph over the lions has been commemorated throughout the ancient world (pictured).

The next obstacle was a vast lake driven by high winds and surrounded by mountains, Gilgamesh would save much time and effort if he could travel by water. The King directed to a boatman, Urshanabi, who takes him across using poles in just three days. Gilgamesh had arrived at TIL.MUN - "The Land of the Living." Urshanabi instructed Gilgamesh to proceed to a town, Itla, where he would seek the blessing of a local god, Ulluyah, in order to proceed further. Shamash aids the King, once again, with advice to make offerings. Shamash took Gilgamesh before the god seeking the god's acceptance, but another god, Kumarbi objected strongly that immortality could not be granted Gilgamesh.

Gilgamesh realized he would not be granted a Shem (rocket), sought in consolation to see his forefather, Utnapishtim (Noah). The two-thirds divine King proceeded to Mount Mashu, The Place of the Shems:

The name of the Mountain is Mashu.
At the mountain of Mashu he arrived,
Where daily the Shems he watched
As they departed and come in.

Rocket-men guard its gate.
Their terror is awesome, their glance is death.
Their dreaded spotlight sweeps the mountains.

There are depictions of hybrid bull-men with a circular device on a post, which may be the spotlight?. Two guards realized immediately Gilgamesh possessed flesh of gods, when their spotlight only slowed him momentarily. The guards allowed him to approach and asked him to account for his presence in a restricted area. Gilgamesh invoked Shamash and his two-thirds divine origins and asked permission to see Utnapishtim, the guards allowed him to enter.

Gilgamesh, in the dark and possibly blindfolded, followed the Stairway to Heaven, depicted as a ladder with wings, took a day to descend six levels and then ascend six levels. Once, Gilgamesh could see again he found himself in an amazing enclosure, a veritable garden of the Gods. Gilgamesh meets Utnapishtim, finally, and comes to the point: "Tell me, How joinest thou the congregation of the gods in thy quest for Life?"

A hidden secret Utnapishtim (Noah) reveals to Gilgamesh how he was granted everlasting life. A stricken Gilgamesh, once he realizes, only an assembly of gods can grant eternal life, promptly fainted and lay unconscious for six days. Utnapishtim related, perhaps as a consolation prize, how he could postpone death by eating a prickly plant that grows underwater, which the gods ate themselves!

Back with Urshanabi, Gilgamesh trumpets the plant's invigorating properties. Fate intervened between Gilgamesh and a long life once again, however. A snake made off with the plant as Gilgamesh prepared to bath before retiring one night on his return trip. Gilgamesh breaks down to cry, once more, in his failed quest for immortality. The divine Gilgamesh, whose father was human, ruled 126 years. This is how the first search for immortality ended, according to the entry made in the Sumerian Kings Lists.

google+ leading to 'creepy' omnipresence online?

from pcworld: Google+'s creepy integration everwhere may extend your online identity when you surf, and its social Circles can be very useful and flexible. But it remains to be seen how Google's foray into social networking will lead to a stable version of identity online like what Executive Chairman Eric Schmidt talked up at a recent event. After all, the identity you can build on Google+ right now is almost identical to the one you can build on Facebook -- the same profile, pictures and status updates. The main difference right now is the friends you can add to your Circles, due to the problems Google's been having with letting people into the system, which Schmidt cites as Google+'s biggest hiccup. Given all the hatred for Facebook over privacy and security snafus, it seems to me the issue on the Internet is not just lack of identity, but lack of control over your personal persona online. At the recent event, Schmidt shared some of his thoughts on the newly launched Google+. He implied that the Google+ system is designed for building identity -- the real issue of the Internet. As Tech Crunch reports, Schmidt said Google tried to build a system that you could use for relationships over time. "Circles is particularly well-suited to the contact list you have in your phone," he was quoted as saying. Schmidt is right about one thing. We don't need another Facebook, and online social interaction could definitely use more authenticity. Schmidt said more products are planned for Google+. Let's hope they include strong privacy controls and actually useful applications, lest Google+ turns into just another social obligation.

US suspects some foreign-made components threaten cybersecurity

from abcnews: Some foreign-made computer components are being manufactured to make it easier to launch cyber attacks on U.S. companies and consumers, a security official at the the Department of Homeland Security said. "I am aware of instances where that has happened," said Greg Schaffer, who is the Acting Deputy Undersecretary National Protection and Programs Director at the DHS. Schaffer did not say where specifically these components are coming from or elaborate on how they could be manufactured in such a way as to facilitate a cyber attack. But Schaffer's comment confirms that the U.S. government believes some electronics manufacturers have included parts in products that could make U.S. consumers and corporations more vulnerable to targeted cyber attacks. A device tampered with prior to distribution or sale could act as a "Trojan horse" in the opening wave of an international cyberwar. Contaminated products could be used to jeopardize the entire network. The admission by Schaffer came out Thursday after repeated questioning from Rep. Jason Chaffetz, R-Utah, at a House Oversight and Government Reform Committee hearing on cyber threats. ABC News previously reported that the FBI was investigating a case in which counterfeit Cisco routers were being sold to various government agencies but this is the first time that a government official has confirmed that the threat is real.
