Earthquake Pattern?

Anonymous dude at Alien Earth ran across this disturbing little earthquake related tidbit.. Now, check out this perspective.. That's right; look up, then right, then look at the bottom. Connect those dots and you've got yourself the beginnings of one scary lookin' box..

Have you seen.. This Man?

Found this quote from George Ure's awesome Urban Survival site:

"I take it you've seen that something in the predictive linguistics due to go viral here shortly is the story that thousands of people are having the same male figure appear in their dreams? If not, check www.thisman.org. Notice the face that seems to be popping up in people's dreams, got it?

Now...go flip to the Wikipedia page on Willie Sutton. Am I the only one to notice some kind of resemblance? Is there some kind of...you know....bank robber meme going around?"

This is an Economics website?

Urban Survival rates "awesome" by mixing easy to understand, conversational, gut-punch economics about the upcoming (soon, unfortunately/quite possibly) Depression Two with material on Quantum/Paranormal activity (most notably, the Web Bots), and the increasing intensity of global earth changes. And, with the introduction of this man to the site, his more conservative readers must wonder about his sanity, but for those of my ilk, "awesome" applies.

Ure has been spotting then writing on important economic trends and data long before the financial networks/media, and much longer than the Mainstream Media, who, in actuality, almost never broadcast any relevant trends or data. And it's not pretty. Massive debt, double digit declines in shipping numbers, the upcoming derivatives implsion.. None of it's good.

"I'm committed to connecting groups of dots, wherever possible." He says, on his site. He also connects dots within the realm of the (all encompassing term here) Supernatural. He is a thoughtfully organized Woo-Woo, presenting concepts not usually(Read: Ever.) found on any mainstream economics sites, and economic information and strategy for Conspiracy Weirdos and the Tin Foil Hat Set. He's logical, rational, and Wants-To-Believe. And he wants to warn you about the looming crisis in our collective immediate future.

I hope to hell George Ure's wrong about almost every economic thing he writes. Unfortunately I don't think he is.

Head hurts: Mind blown.

An explanation of the ten dimensions, via Tenth Dimension. I'm still having a hard time conceptualizing this fully. We, as Third Dimensional beings, aren't aware that we also inhabit (and operate within) increasingly complex dimensions simultaneously, all housed within the Tenth. We, then, are equivalent to sub-atomic particles in the most sophisticated organization ever created, ever devised. An entity that houses an infinity of infinities. Is your mind ripping apart yet?

Flashback: Winter, 1993

From Sense and Antisense:

Winter 1993

Vincent and I would drive around the island in his pickup. He, dropping off bags of weed here and there, me, along for the ride. We enjoyed each other’s company. He would get extra food when we’d order out, when I couldn’t afford it, because he felt I was losing too much weight.

Which, in reality, I was. I was not taking care of myself, working too much, and constantly popping ephedrine tablets. Ephedrine is one chemical ion away from being classified as a meth-amphetamine. Did you know that?I only found that out a few years ago, and not when I lived in Key West. I’m a little hyper anyway, and being strung out on ephedrine and caffeine did make me lose weight.

“Eat! Eat! You’re a growing boy!” He would say. Making me finish whatever he had ordered, taking care to insure I lost no more weight. He was very nurturing of me.

He was the first one at work to offer a friendly hand. That meant so much, as I was intimidated by the unfamiliarity of my new workplace. I was there as an apprentice. If I showed any promise or talent, my boss would hire me on. Which he eventually did, but at first, there was no such guarantee. But none of that mattered to Vincent.

I worked in silence those first couple of weeks, learning the photo-stat machine, how to use an exacto-knife, how to cut a rubylyth, and how to typeset. Simple procedures to someone skilled in graphics, but unfamiliar and difficult for me. So I worked quietly, doing what was asked, timid and unsure, praying for patient responses to the inevitable mistakes I kept making. He responded to every mistake and question with a smile.

He sold me weed. He kept me fed. He was patient and helpful. He was actively concerned about my well being. He came along at just the right time.

My dealer became my friend.

Classic Gags For Everyday Funnies

I'm going through this comedic phase right now of walking backwards out of conversations. I find this to be hilarious, and my friends either like it or play along pretty well. Of course I copped it from The Simpsons. Anyone who even remotely knows me knows of my obsession with that show. This is, in my opinion, one of the best Homer gags ever. I just laughed thinking about it! Enjoy!

So What Do You Guys Do For Fun?

Assuming you have any spare time not devoted to: Running from buildings and avoiding falling debris from earthquakes, running inland from an earthquake-related tsunami, or running far inland(hopefully) from four tropical cyclones? These events didn't strike the exact same place, but they did all occur in the same region. The presence of four cyclones? Not so interesting, according to those interviewed, as the South Pacific is active this time of year. But the two earthquakes, major earthquakes.. happening on the same day(same twenty four hour period).. Well, that's interesting.

Known by its more sensational name as Planet X." ..Which might have something to do with the Hopi Prophecy regarding the Blue Star Kachina, with Comet Holmes as said Kachina. And the monster explosion in the first link is somehow tied to the RED Kachina, Blue's badass partner in this prophecy o' doom..

And it's all scheduled(at least by the conspiracy community) to go down starting next month (next week plus a few days..). So we got that to look forward to.. Which is nice..

Flashback: The Pride of 1999

The Pride of 1999

“Do you have an opinion; a mind of your own? Well, I’ve run out of patience; I couldn’t care less…” Garbage, “Special.”

I’m really sure “gay” isn’t the right word for it… The music is loud, and his perception is distorted by the interaction of the multiple drugs he’s ingested. His eyes cause the other men dancing around him to slow down, float, and double. Anonymous hands and parts brush him, fueling his amphetamine bliss. His pupils are wide and he sees the answers he seeks, but it’s only fleeting, as the music and interaction takes him quickly elsewhere. He will only remember flashes.

His heart is strained from the cocaine cocaine. His mouth is dry and his penis flaccid. To the other men, he is so cool… as they neither know nor do they wish to know any more than the superficial. His package is a perfect cliche, the ultimate gay fantasy. He is proud, so fucking proud to know the cool bars and best drink specials and the "A-Gays” with their superior attitudes and the fabulous parties and the prettiest boys who always have the best drugs, their faces touched up with just a hint of the most expensive male makeup available.

Later, he has yet another anonymous hook-up with the hottest guy in the bar. The actual sex isn’t important, just the motions. He can drink more than the rest with the help of his choice of drugs. His jeans fit his ass so well. His family misses him, but they are far away now, of no concern.

The trick is rich, with a convertible and a condo by the park. He has done this many times before, also. He claims to be a model artist, but waits tables for the coke that rules him. Hours later, he wakes up, emotions and serotonin drained, the guilt he claims he doesn’t possess rears its head, and he leaves without getting the rich trick’s number. He knows he’ll see him again and they’ll date, because, in his delusion, he knows this is the one with which he’ll spend the rest of his life.

The next night at the beer bust, the rich trick doesn’t even look his way. He pretends to be shocked and devastated and justifies his latest binge with his latest heartbreak. His friends, family, and co-workers will pay the price in bitterness later for even attempting to give a shit. And he is so very proud. Yes he is.

He wonders why more people don’t like him. When he closes his eyes, the gnawing blackness overtakes his being, ever so slowly. His abyss has its very own soundtrack in the muffled beats of the club music he can barely remember. He finds a certain comfort on the dance floor, dancing with his shirt off with other tweaked shirtless boys he’s already fucked. They are all one great big ball of confusion all heading toward the same end.

Pride? You’re proud? Don’t you dare speak for me, pricks. I too, am gay, but not your way. There are others, who, like me, like and love ourselves more than that.

Clique-ism is not pride. “Community” is not alcohol or alcohol-establishment driven. Blind acceptance of stereotypical behavioral patterns is not pride. Investing all of one’s identity into sex and sexuality is not pride.

Will there ever be a parade for people like me? If there is, I’m sure there won’t be any drink specials.

Meditation on Success

Success rarely arrives in the form one expects. Even rarer is the level of expectation to the ultimate level of Success. Remember, this is not necessarily negative, as a prediction might be exceeded by the end result. Remember also, that while Success can be measured by material gain, one's own Success is ultimately viewed and felt upon internal inspection, individually. When priorities are in closer alignment with spiritual concerns, Success is easier to define and less elusive than it's reputation implies.

Your concept of Success defines your life. You are a child of God's Universe. You are already a Success. Go ahead; Build on that!

Film as AstroDrama?

When Jim Jarmusch's "The Limits of Control" came out earlier this year, it was met with roundly polarizing reviews (Don't forget to read the comments) It seems "..Limits.." will totally resonate with you, or you'll be pissed about losing two hours. This reviewer liked it, but within the framework of astrological symbolism represented by human characters and situations. I haven't been a huge fan of Jarmusch in the past (sadly, based on my inability to sit still through "Mystery Train," and only kind of liking "Night on Earth."), but I'll check this one out. With an open mind and more focus this time, of course..

Congratulations, Antlers! You just made the Album of the Decade!

I've heard some amazing music the last nine years, but "Hospice," by Antlers, is by far the best. A concept album about an abusive terminal cancer patient and her caregiver/boyfriend (According to the review.. I haven't quite grasped that on my own..) isn't a real fun pretext for music, but everything; every note, every second.. is perfect. Too heavy on the compliments? Not to me. Listen for yourself( Lala is located in the blue box to the right of the review. Hit "Play all" for the full experience..). Love it or hate it, you won't be able to be objective about it..

I've heard this album once, immediately ordered it, and have thought about it continuously for the last 24 hours. The level of creativity this group manifests is staggering. I'm now a fan. A true, ardent, over the top fan of Antlers. Thanks in advance for the amazing hours I'll spend with your work. I can't wait.

Study: 74% Of Children Tenting Out In Yard Don't Make It Through The Night

From The Onion, of course..

Glen Beck waves goodbye to the last remaining bit of his soul..

He's not awful because he (now) spouts Libertarian gibberish on Fox, it's the massive hypocrisy of having the script change on him, and him not missing a beat.. From a lickspittle NeoCon to New Libertarian Hope and No One Noticed! I've lost A LOT of respect for Ron Paul, who, in the course of the last two years, has been loony-tized, then deified by the likes of Beck. Paul could have easily called Beck on his hypocrisy, but hasn't. While I'd like to believe that Ron Paul is Above The Fray when it comes to Beck, a part of me now believes that Ron Paul is No Better Than The Others.. -BUT- How Ron Paul deals with Beck's douchebaggery is not in question. Beck's douchebaggery, though, is.

He reads scripts for lots and lots of money. He doesn't care what he says on camera. He doesn't care who he hurts, or what consequences might come from his actions. His cold and greedy heart has overwhelmed his underdeveloped conscience.

And that's why he's awful. And that makes me sad.

"Without obtaining any tissue from that person."

I guess DNA can lie, after all.. So, what about all those cases(past/present/future) whose decisions all hinge(d) on DNA evidence? Will DNA Evidence-decided trials have to be re-reviewed? If so, would our legal system gridlock nationally.. almost overnight?

And what of Forensic Science? Will the industry react and establish new criteria and methods for determination of authentic DNA? How sophisticated will the technological upgrade have to meet the new set of "acceptable standards?" How much will it cost nationally?

The cynical bastard in me says that none of this will happen. The industry will continue to preach the "Infallible DNA" line right up to the bitter end. Sad. I would really like to be wrong about this, but I don't think I am..

The scariest implication of DNA fabrication is "corruption of evidence." "Corruption" is an alteration or fabrication of forensic material in order to produce suspicion in any desired direction, by creator of said material. In other words: If "they" (whoever "they" may be)want you, they'll get you. And they can create the proof to prove your guilt. And that "you?" Could be anyone, including..

Yeah? Now how do you feel?

The Last Three Stories of What Will Be My Book..

This was me in a different life. I can't prove it, but I know. And somehow, this life is somehow connected to the present, although I'm not sure how, or why. So, here they are:


During/the end

They had arrived safely. The water was seasonably warm, and not uncomfortable. The waves rippled and crashed as they pushed the boat an acceptable distance onshore. The song of the insects was unfamiliar. The air was humid. Dread was eating the man, his nausea rising. He wondered why. Everything seemed to be fine.

They were preparing to build a fire and explore the immediate area when the attack started. The noise of landing had masked all other sounds, and the inhabitants of the island were upon them before they had a chance to organize a defense, as they had not accounted for such a situation. The ones that had survived the initial onslaught ran aimlessly, further away from their boat, their lives taken one by one. A few men made an attempt to re-launch the boat, but were killed before they got to the water.

The man’s dread was forgotten as he ran along the beach, but his crippling nausea remained, bile rising with every footfall. He ran parallel to the shore, the water only feet away. His breath was heavy from panic. After an acceptable distance, he reasoned, he would disappear into the tree line until the morning, then swim to the ship.He continued to run, loudly exhaling his fear, his mouth gulping the sea air. He veered towards the trees, his immediate safe harbor. Darkness and brush and unfamiliar Flora enveloped him as he decided to stop and rest and look back at what was left of the expedition. The man who had followed him into the trees noticed his shocked expression as he turned around to look. He knew his prey had not heard him follow, as fear had overwhelmed all but his instinctual, reflexive flight. The inhabitant fell upon him, and the deed was done. The man’s life had ended on this island unfamiliar.

Off shore, the ship was anchored in semi-shallow waters, its silhouette alone against the horizon. The lone occupant of the ship, the dog, paced and whined and cried, echoing the distant and occasional cries from the island. After awhile, the dog began to yowl, breaking the silence that had once again settled in over the area. After a period of no response, the dog once again became quiet, and laid down to wait.

Miles upon miles over the ocean, the man’s wife went about finishing her daily activities. Their son, not far away, was amusing himself, within her view. She watched him for a moment as he ran in circles. She smiled and called for him to follow, as it was time for them to go inside. She turned around again when she reached the doorway, calling to him, pulling on a creeping vine, silently breathing a prayer to God to watch over her husband.

Right before


…They worked in silence, making themselves and the smaller boat ready to embark. They rowed in unison, gently breaking the waves, cruising in quietly and deliberately, timid and un-announced. The tightness of his face reflected the pressure in his stomach as the sound of the waves striking the rocky beachhead intensified. They were arriving safely, but this was of no comfort. The warm wind chilled, heeding him to pay attention, to be…aware.


The sky was a navy blue sea of diamonds, shining brightly, coldly, and perfectly over the solid blackness of ocean below. The unseen already in motion, all was now in place. Events in the forefront could begin. And they did begin. At that moment, at that arc of realization, on this, the most visually beautiful night of his life.

Before

They could feel the land before they ever saw it. It had been days and days and days since there had been even a hint of coastline, islands on the horizon, humanity, fresh water, anything. Tonight, though, was different. Most of them were sleeping, or trying to, when a feeling of discontent or anxiety took over one of the men, who decided to rise and ease those feelings experienced by staring onto the endless horizon.

Landlocked people don’t understand how much reflective power a full sky of stars has on the ocean. Contrasts between light and darkness are interpreted on a different visual spectrum, so even after his vision had adjusted, the man still couldn't be sure to trust his eyes. He stood motionless, staring, for a few minutes, wanting more affirmation from the possible masses he saw southwest from their vessel. During the time the man was trying to analyze the sliding empirical evidence the night and the stars and the ocean offered, he was made aware of the tension in his stomach. The cause of his anxiety he mistakenly attributed to nervousness about future food supply, homesickness for his son, his wife, buildings and surroundings from his home city, the familiar comfort from his home shores, or the realization of the duration of this adventure, which was already much longer than intended. Land or not, the expedition was not even half over.

Consumed by these thoughts and analyses, he was slow to realize he was no longer alone. He looked to his left and right, and all were there, all staring southwest, all silent. The stars were shining brightly, and from that distance, the man swore he saw light, or movement. He was not sure if the others saw anything similar, but by the lack of commotion, talking, or excitement displayed by the men, he knew they all felt something…not right.

They had found it and it had already begun.


And yeah, that's the order I intended.

Two disturbing articles on fame's latest Superstar To Emerge From Nowhere.. This One(or, more likely, the ones surrounding her) knows controversy and she knows marketing. Team GaGa really knows the power of the visual. And so much "coincidental" symbology to boot..
Watching these two videos back to back in context of that information does give me pause. I'm not sure which one is creepier.

All of these symbols and references might be random and they might be totally benign. But.. everything else about her career trajectory seems so choreographed, so well executed for maximum impact, I hardly believe anything regarding her persona to be "random," or "accidental."

I will, in the future, look very differently at Lady GaGa.

Making Our Lives Better By Changing Karma

Robert Wilkinson writes yet another amazing article on his Aquarius Papers site..

Some samples: (Emphasis mine)

"Most limits arise from personal, social, or familial taboos and expectations, those reactions we formed at other times in our lives. These condition the personality in many ways, and bring about events that challenge us to choose our responses carefully and intelligently. That is karma. All significant events in our life challenge us to grow beyond old limitations so we can demonstrate our willingness to become our Higher Self. That is Karma."

And:

..Our successes also condition us, usually programming us to want more.

Thus we are a combination of programmed responses, attached to what we believe will bring us happiness, avoiding what will bring pain. The paradox of life is a peculiar mix involving many things which once brought us happiness eventually bring pain, and much of what once brought us pain led us into unknowns that yielded great happiness. If we choose to, we can grow tremendously through both types of experience, and find love, wisdom, power, and intelligence regardless of the outer condition.

And:

"If we willingly avoid looking at our power to choose to change patterns, then our lives stay stuck in past patterns until we are forced by circumstances to change. On the other hand, we can also choose to welcome unknown possibilities, moving into our potential to grow into higher awareness. That yields opportunities to become more skillful in applying our spiritual intelligence in our life, which in turn yields knowledge and understanding."

Please read this. It may change your life.

Jimi Hendrix, Space Alien..

Jimi Hendrix was from Mars, possibly a walk-in, attracted UFO's to his live performances, and most awesomely, was saved from freezing during a blizzard by an eight foot tall alien. Jimi Hendrix, the American/Martian original.

These beliefs would be totally laughed off coming from a lesser individual, but Hendrix was in a category by himself. Hendrix played like no other, and his music still has a "parallel universe" feel to it. Yeah, he took a lot of acid, but so did Leary. So did McKenna. He was serious in his exploration of consciousness, and some of his "beliefs" might be manifesting today. So it doesn't strike me as odd that Hendrix were to ask "What planet are you from, pal?" Or that he meant it. Or.. that it might be true. Of the worlds he explored, anything is possible..

Two interesting (and very different)perspectives regarding his death are here and here.

The other part of the equation is learning to accept and embrace the circumstances and blessings of your present situation. Here you can stay. Because, after all, this is where you are. And this is where you belong.

I guess now I belong in Branson – again.

When I wrote this in 1995, my life was very different than now; less stable, less sure, less faith in the patterns of the universe. My confusion made life less than it could have been. But no, not really, as that period, easily the worst of my life, is the reason I am what I've become today. Devastating circumstances can strengthen as well as destroy. Don't forget that.

But these things take time. They take introspection. They take work. But mostly, they take patience; with others, with yourself. If you're in the middle of your own devastating circumstance, you might not believe things will ever get better. But believe me, they can. If you try.. So please try.

Be strong. We need you.

Baja Earthquake

I'll let George Ure from Urban Survival explain why I'll be watching this closely..

"You're welcome to be as skeptical of our rickety time machine as you want, but if you would so kind as to click back to last week's Friday report here and scroll on down to where I told you...
"We should get a good hint whether that's still on tap since there's a temporal marker due August 3/4 with a largish earthquake (+/- a couple of days). What I'll be looking for will be something in the 6.5 in a populated area to a 7.0+ in an unpopulated area and decent headlining or maybe tsunami warnings. We shall see, non? "
And once you recall what I told you last Friday based on the predictive linguistics work of www.halfpasthuman.com, you will want to click over to the Reuters story about the 6.9 earthquake that just happened off Baja California.

Two important items: One: We should get another quake, possibly similar in size tomorrow (odds on that are relatively high) and since this is one of the temporal markers the time monks have been pointing to as 'notice this marker because if it hits, then it's 'game on' for the derivatives visibility showing up on or about August 22.

Don't say no one mentioned it to you in advance. We may not have more than two dimes to rub together, but we do own something of increasingly higher value: The future."

I read the latest Webbot report. Really tense, really evil, Really, Really scary. And, of course, I hope it's wrong.. about everything. Tomorrow, though, is a different picture. Let's see what develops.

Lohan gets a DWI: Worldwide press coverage. The former Saudi Ambassador to the U.S. is arrested for a "failed coup," and AGAIN, crickets..

Seems like a mighty big story to me. Why, oh why is there no coverage? Will we ever be able to trust our Muslim-controlled press?

Bailout 101

Xymphora finds a concise little article explaining the mechanics of The Bailout on a micro-economic level: One massively overpaid oil speculator(whose actions might have (read, probably did..) helped spike oil prices in 2008) that will receive a $100 Million Dollar B*O*N*U*S for profiting from spiking oil prices in 2008! (And yes, the repeat language was intentional..) Bonus? That fuckin' guy (and all his ilk) should be charged two dollars a gallon for every gallon sold to everyone in the U.S. for the entire year! Market manipulation effects all consumers, and future(if there ever is any--which is doubtful..) legislation should mirror those serious implications.

"Too big to fail," is turning into "Too big to regulate." and "Too big to give a shit about anything but the corporate bottom line."

Too bad for us.

This would have NEVER happened had they been high..

Old stoners don't drag race. Period.

Super Water Kills Bugs Dead

Wow! Somebody give these people shitloads of money to mass produce this stuff, please! Maybe the health care industry will give hydrogen peroxide therapy another look? Will they? No. Not likely.

Jupiter "Scar" triples in size?

Doomtastic! Might this be an expanding debris cloud, or something else? Or.. something else.. Let's hope the first one!

What the What?

"8 Cartoon Characters That Probably Have Syphilis." Sounds like something I'd write if I had Syphilis..

I expect to see more of this in the future..

Poor John Woo just wants to teach and forget about all that nasty torture business, but people won't let him.. If Obama won't prosecute these criminals, maybe the people should give them no peace, drive them insane, and let what's left of their conscience(es) prosecute themselves for us. Cheaper, and probably much more effective!

Please.. Get the fuck over it, already!

Obama's a citizen, or McCain's people would have SATURATED THE WORLD with information proving otherwise! Not that they didn't look.. But, of course, the Birthers won't be satisfied.. Not that they want to know about how we got into this gigantic shithole of a mess that previous Dear Leader dug for us.. That might take a little homework, as that's not the information that Fox News and Junkie Pig like to provide.

It really seems to go back to "I don't like the looks of that colored guy," without being able to say as much. Which is too bad, because if they could get off their racist asses, they'd probably find many more policy issues to debate, and have much more credibility debating them.

File Under: Earthquakes. Tag: Global Coastal Event

Three big-ass earthquakes off the eastern coast of Australia.. Magnitude 7.9 (two times) and 8.0 all within the same (relative) area is definitely worth noting. The site linked to is the English language Bulgarian National Seismological Data Centre. Neato, right? I so love the Internet..

Doom, Astrolgy Style..

Off planet scariness involving last week's meteor hit on Jupiter, an ongoing triple conjunction(that's where astrology comes in)of Jupiter, Neptune, and Chiron, and possible incoming asteroids to our neck of the solar system! Thrills and chills courtesy of an order of Russian nuns (named "The Order of Sorcha Faal.") who may or may not be a man named David Booth.

Tasty.

Doubleplusungood, or Books one, Kindle Sucks..

Here's a little something so Orwellian, ironic, and stupid! Really? Did Amazon think no one would pick up on them deleting 1984? Remotely(!) banning an e-book about (among other things) historical revisionism after people already bought and paid for it? I just conducted a seance to speak with Orwell, and his message was, "I told you so, folks." and "Fuck you, Amazon.." Not my words.. Orwell. Me? I love Big Brother!

What's Roseanne been up to?

Recently, someone asked me what Roseanne Barr has been doing since Roseanne went off the air(has it really been 12 years?). Short answer? Becoming very political.. And here.. Roseanne's never been one to shy away from controversy, and without the national spotlight on her every move, she's free to really tell it like it is..

Love her or hate her, she has the courage to speak her mind, thank God..

No posts tonight..

Doing some required reading. Sorry, and Thanks!

Global Coastal Event Coming to a Planet Near You..

Above Normal Tides on East Coast: No Explanation. The catastrophic hits get bigger as we get closer to the End! Now, on with The Countdown! The poster linked to Urban Survival's connection of this story to the much larger, much doomier, Global Coastal Event(as predicted by the Webbots. Check out Clif's interview on Rense Radio..). This Event, which, if true to its name, will effect Coasts, Globally.

And again, no explanations as to Why this happened..

Speaking of Weather..

Brilliant independent weatherman Kevin Martin is posting again at my favorite conspiracy forum. The comments, for this thread anyway, were so far, overwhelmingly positive. Kevin's forecasts differ from mainstream sources due to his use of long term pattern forecasting software and from his knowledge and application of micro climates in his predictions. Previously, for some reason I've never understood, whenever he would post severe weather forecasts, debunkers would immediately respond, and immediately respond with personal attacks. Sometimes Kevin would get angry, and lose focus of his original intent. Which was a shame, as his tornado reports were pretty spot on relative to the region predicted. He's been banned at least once for fighting, came back, quit posting all together, and now is back.

Me? I'm glad. I followed his posts closely, and his predictions(made from Southern California) were far more accurate for the South Western Missouri area than our local meteorologists. He's colorful, pugnacious(he can totally articulate his temper), unapologetic, loves what he does, and seems genuine in his desire to help others through the best forecasts he can provide.

Kevin Martin: Meteorologist of the Future, and all around Righteous Dude..

File Under: Global Atmospheric Change

This feels like an out-take from the beginning of The Day After Tomorrow. Once again, nobody seems to have anything conclusive to offer. Theories competing with theories, but nobody knows for sure. Portent-of-doom paragraphs:


Instead, Wickwar’s explanation is that a vertical atmospheric wave discovered in their LIDAR data lowered the temperature in the region above their radar installation near Logan, Utah. But then you have to ask, he noted, “Where’d the wave come from?”

and

The recent observations of noctilucent clouds at all kinds of latitudes provide an extra impetus to understand what is going on up there. Changes are occurring faster than scientists can understand their causes. “I suspect, as many of us feel, that it is global change, but I fear we don’t understand it,” Wickwar said. “It’s not as simple as a temperature change.”

My gut says "Uh-oh.."

Strange Story of the Day, or "Let X=X."

I was cruising around Fark earlier, looking for a strange human interest story to throw out there, and came upon this doozy.. "Amputee hops around Wendy's pointing a gun at employees because they forgot his straw. Then it gets wierd(sp.)." Imagine my surprise when the story appeared on the website of the local ABC affiliate, KSPR. Not really. No surprise there..
Of course this happened in the Ozarks..

Again; The Solution! This Time with Official Numbers

It's right there in front of you, folks.. California, will you economically Fall at the hands of those who violently insist they know the "Prince of Peace," or will you Rise with the Plant created by Our Creator? Hint: Vote "Spiritual," not "Religious."

Bad Omen

This sucks. Wayne County is Detroit, so.. this should be horrible to watch when it spirals downward, out of control..

This doesn't help, either. Where's the money going to come from to fix this bridge? This portion of I-75 is traveled on over 160,000 times a day. The detours will be chaos, I'm sure. Michigan feels bleak, even more than before..

More Alaska Weirdness

This time it's goo. When did Alaska turn into Florida?

Turmeric As Wonder Drug

Long, but worth-it article here. Worried about cancer(prostate, colon, lung)? What about Alzheimer's? Cholesterol? Rheumatoid Arthritis? General inflammation issues? Turmeric(or its active ingredient Curcumin) can help!

Maybe, of course.. Maybe it can help. The authors make a pretty convincing argument that Turmeric/Curcumin could help A Lot of people without ever making that specific argument. (Paragraph added in a later edit, 7/17).

While I've taken Curcumin for over three years now, I've never tried this particular brand before. But I will. Certificate of Analysis? Quality Guarantee? These people are Serious..

Latest from Goro..

After reading Goro Adachi for more than five years, I've got, maybe, a grasp on how to explain his concept of "Synchronistic Mysticism." In the Symbolic Universe, every Person/Place/Thing is assigned some value/meaning just.. by being. Each object then can be grouped with other objects that relate in some way with yet more objects larger in symbolic value. For example.. "Pollution" is much larger in value than say, "trash can," "gum wrapper," "oil spill," or "carcass," but those words can all be symbolically linked to "pollution."

"Piles" of Symbols then become larger when more related words are added. Visualize an empty room with piles of blocks grouped together. Each block is a symbol, and the sum of each pile is the larger symbol. Then, connections between the larger groups of symbols will occur, and more connections within the group will begin to appear. Meaning is derived from the interpretation of these connections of smaller to larger related events, and connections between different, larger archetypes. I didn't say it was a simple explanation..

So a portion of Goro's process must involve scanning world events constantly in order to develop each relevant symbolic theme as fully as possible. I understand that he does what he does, and somehow these multicontextural wonders appear, what I still don't understand(and probably never will) is HOW he does it. How can he sift through, then synthesize the massive amount of information required to connect the events(past), occurrences(future), people, and things in the manner in which he does connect them? Featured in this article: Planetary positions around the sun, Princess Diana, the State of Indiana, Michael Jackson, Paris, the April earthquake in Italy, 2001 A Space Odyssey, Prince William, Janet Jackson's "Nipplegate," and Nickelback(!).

Intrigued? You should be. It's a long, confusing read(all the articles are), but if you dig it, you will be hooked..

Luc Arbogast: Man, or Something Else?

Listen to him sing, and tell me if that's not too far off.. Otherworldly talent paired with unapologetic individuality(just look at him!): Is he for real? He's my nominee for Coolest Freak of the New Millennium..

He's also my hope for this new Millennium: Amazing occurrences from unlikely sources..

Brian Killmeade doesn't know much, and he loves to tell you so.

What the deuce, man? Genetic homogeny in Sweden and Finland exists, but "marrying other species."? That's as artful and nuanced as ya' got? I know it's Fox, but who the fuck hired this guy? Stay on the script man, stay on the script!

New Land Forming in Alaska..

Oh my. It's a little worrisome that no one seems to know why this happened, just that it did.. Along with massive underwater rock slide, think underwater volcanic activity or expanding earth. These people did. (I really like that forum, by the way - weirdos, freaks, idiots, and smart people all chatting away, each thread as vulgar as it is entertaining as it is amazing. And there's always more threads!) Whatever this was, is not cool. A Lot of energy was released with amazing subtlety, and there is no conventional explanation for this occurrence!


I'll be watching this one..

Crop Circle/Solar Storm Update - 7/9

Big ol' blast to our Magnetosphere happening right now.. Solar activity is up, and while the crop circle predictions didn't exactly come true, they did herald an approximate time marking the beginning of festivities.. Maybe.. the messages themselves were interpreted almost perfectly, but not. The answer would be close, but not correct, right? So.. would that be the fault of the messenger, or the fault of the human interpretation?

Of related interest: Spinning Crop Circles!

The Webbot Project

Clif's got a blog site! Listen to any audio clip for an overview of the project, and what might be happening in the not so near future.. Hang on, things might be gettin' a little hairy the next four or so years. Keywords for doom-preppers: Canned goods. Silver. Self-sufficient.

But things aren't all bad.. According to the webbots, after the world(all will be effected) moves through the upcoming (possibly multiple/cataclysmic/simultaneous) "unpleasantness," circumstances will improve world-wide. Advances in electrics, steps toward "contact," new ways of living, and a new global humanity are also mentioned as future scenarios. And not all of us will be dead, so that's good, too, right?

Why Palin Resigned

Because of its timing, Sarah Palin's surprise resignation from the position of Alaska Governor was instantly suspicious. Called the "Friday afternoon news dump," crappy or Holy Crap! news is announced late in the day on any normal Friday. By doing this, there's a chance that whatever bad, inevitable announcements were made Friday will be forgotten by Monday. Then, when reporters follow up on Monday, spokesmen can claim that the story is "old news," and has "already been covered." The network news organizations shift their programming cycles Friday evening until early Monday from live news and programs to News Documentary and special programming, so any Friday would have been good, but the announcement before the Fourth of July holiday weekend will be, although suspicious as hell, the best Palin could do, and probably the most/last quiet she'll have for some time. You see, Sarah might be in some trouble..



Here's the Roundup:



Raw Story's got a pretty good overview here. An Idiot's perspective at Red State here. Did you know the media "ritualistically engage(s) in the metaphorical gang raping of conservative politicians, particularly those who are female and have children."? Hysterical metaphorical hyperbole, much? But dumb people seem to respond to that sort of thing, so I'm sure Red State and Fox News and The Weekly Standard won't be changing their story styles anytime soon.



Rumors had been circulating about Palin's potential ethical problems since before the election, and The Village Voice ran this article in early October, but the story didn't have "legs," and quickly cycled out. Or maybe it was just filed away, for use at another time.. But people still wrote about it.. Then, Vanity Fair's article came out last week, and shortly after, Palin's surprise, rambling resignation speech. And, by the way, elected officials aren't "lame ducks" in their first term, period. It's specific to second terms, or to a Governor or President whose party is in the legislative minority. Does this woman understand anything about political office?

This is not over, I'm sure. Maybe none of this is the real reason for Friday's quick turn of events. Only Palin knows for sure. And soon, we'll all know more. After all, Labor Day is seven weeks away..

A P.S.. Goro Adachi's scary theory on Palin, using his brand of "Synchronistic Mysticism," written last November. If he's right, God help us all..

"Hey! Hey! I'm still talking, here.."

Kim wants the world's attention back from Michael Jackson. I'm less flip about the issue than the last statement implies. North Korea is China's proxy-bully-state. I hope we factor that information into future strategies..

Thanks again, Science..

Is Swine flu really just a lesson in the consequences of "Bad-Lab Caution?"

"Unknown object quickly approaching the sun"

This thread kinda caught my eye.. Replies four and five are pretty interesting.

Larger thread from a different forum here. And here's another..

Might this be connected somehow?

Two latest crop circles, as of July 2.

What does this all mean? Maybe this.

Enjoy your weekend, folks.

Rush Limbaugh is loonier than Daffy Duck and Carrie Prejan(combined!)..

when they're eating Oxycontin by the handful, waving guns around, hanging out at Sarah Palin's house, shooting at random children and defenseless animals. Yeah, he's that crazy! His antics might be funny if they weren't accepted and believed by a legion of middle-aged and elderly brain dead zombies..

Thanks, Ed, for breaking his rationale down into tiny, digestible, stupid chunks. Mad, mad, mad as the fuckin' Hatter, Rush is..
