watcher, if this is, indeed, the end/beginning of a cycle of generational import -- dont you think your time cld be better spent sharing solutions rather than pointing fingers? who has been found wanting? not all of us, to be sure . . . and perhaps many less of us than you realize.

If a cataclysm is brewing, if in the year 2012, the "electromagnetic catastrophe" that abductees claim they are shown visions of, then there simply isn't any individual solution, as there will likely be no future for most of us. The economic melt down and "strange" weather patterns are likely merely a prelude to the pole shift that will occur when Orion, the judger of mankind, weighs us as a race, in the scales. Dec 21st-22nd Orion will be in the same position it was some 12,000 years ago. The earth's magnetic field shuts down at the same time the sun's magnetic field reverses. The continents will shift, that relatively thin layer that we live on called the crust, as the earth's magnetic iron core will become charged and crash and start spinning in the other direction. The result will be mile high tidal waves sloshing across the continents, massive volcanoes and earthquakes, and newly displaced polar winds will rip across the land at speeds estimated to exceed 300 mph. An advanced race of beings that tell us these scenes are in our near future have invested a great deal of time and energy into creating a hybrid race. Apparently they have no doubt whatsoever that our "civilization" will be wiped out, and according to Dr David Jacobs, in the very near future. @012 is less than 4 years away, and I suspect few if any of us will be around to talk about it, as the conditions become ideal for the implementation of their new "human form". If you really think about it, there is no other way for them to re-seed the earth until "there are fewer of you" (another quote from one of Dr Mack's abductees)(like the other one, "you have been weighed in the scales and found wanting", and "sooner or later, the sheets get balanced", quotes from the case studies of abductees performed by the late harvard psychiatrist and UFO researcher, Dr John E Mack) It is also suggested the collective human psyche has an influence on our environment, and that negative human emotions actually affect weather patterns. We are told we out of balance with the laws of the universe, that we have not used the earth's resources properly. The earth, we are told by abductees, is like a living entity, and has been infested with a disease that is making her sick, namely, the human race. The earth itself is about to "puke us off" and 'swat some bugs off'. Ecologists and climatologists tell us we are self destructing, there is no shortage of selfishness and violence in present human society, only now it seems we are on the brink. If we are not stopped, and it seems even if we all changed our nature and way of doing things, it would be too little too late, then we are likely to destroy all life on the earth and drag it down with us. Call me crazy, negative, whatever you want, I do not care. I view the world objectively. Maybe we should have repected the earth a little better, maybe we should have treated each other and not been so greedy and viscious. This is the message aliens give abductees and it all makes sense if you really think about it. As such, there is no quick fix, no solutions, as human nature will not change. The indingenous people who held the earth in great respect were annihilated, and now people must reap what they have sewn. A brief look at European and US history proves that people of the xtian faith have been the biggest plunderers, rapists, and murderers in the history of the world. Their way of doing things are finally coming back to haunt them. Like I said, karma can be a biotch sometimes. |

I should clarify one thing. Dr david Jacobs in his book The Threat concludes that the reason behind the massive hybrid program is to integrate into society, to cohabitate and presumably control the planet. He does not state any belief in any earth shattering cataclysm, only that he views the future with "great apprehension and dread". My conclusion of a pole shift triggered by an electromagnetic change in the year 2012 comes from other sources, namely Edgar Cayce, The Orion Prophecy, The Threat, The Watchers, and the late Dr John E Mack's book "Abduction", and this intuition I have had for most of my waking life. Believe what you will. Sooner or later, we are history and we did it to ourselves. |

Here's an update to some of the flooding around Fargo, North Dakota: Red River receding; 2 dead in North Dakota flooding. I'm getting a little worried because we haven't heard from Aprylla since the 25th. I continue to include her and all the others affected by this flooding in my thoughts and prayers.  |

Like that last tsunami, the animals were unaffected for the most part. They seemed to know and survive. Just a coincidence? The quarrel is not with the animals whom we exploit and should not, it seems to be with the human race, collectively (and not anyone individually, do not get me wrong here. I may disagree with some people in here but that is because they do not know any better, as so I don't wish any individual here any harm). The human experiment, in its present form, failed. |

AS, I cannot recall her exact location in North Dakota, but I suspect that she lives in the Fargo area. I do know that she had been busy helping place sandbags since last weekend. The pictures of the flooding in that area are horrendous. All that water in addition to lots of ice and snow with more snow expected just sound like such a nightmare experience for those who must live through it.  |

Tis sad. The Sioux knew how to weather the storm,literally, and even though another group of people came over and raped, poisoned, and pillaged the earth like it was their littering box, it is kinda sad to see their descendants, especially old ladies and other white collar people who are not physically fit for manual labor frantically digging and filling sand bags, not even remotely suspecting the earth itself is the cause and that we are likely in the end stages, so it's all futile anyways. Speaking of weird weather, it's snowing up here. My hyacinths and other perennials were starting to open, it looks like winter just will not leave us anytime soon this year. If the summer comes and starts scorching like it did in Australia this year, then maybe some will realize that we have been and remain out of balance with Mother Earth and the laws of nature and are wearing out our welcome on this planet. It was such a beautiful planet too. Such a shame that humans lost touch with the inner core of their being. |

The Sun has missed its regular sunspot cycle, so we are either going into a long minimum (cooling) phase (even a mini ice-age) or the next sunspot cycle will cause a big rise in temperature. |

See if you can send some of that rain down to us in Texas. We have been really dry. Today, it's supposed to get up to 104. Last down at 10:30, the heat index outside was at 92. I hope this is not a trend which will continue throughout the summer. Of course, tomorrow, it's not expected to get above 70. Ah, well, in spite of it all, I love Texas! |

It's just after 8:30 in the evening local time, and the temperature is 93. At least the humidity has gone down to 34%. That makes the heat a little more bearable. |

We're already having 100 degree days here. Here's what they are forecasting for our area this summer: Summer temperatures will be two to three degrees above normal, on average, with the hottest periods in late June, the greater part of July, and early August. Expect a hurricane in late July or early August. Sounds about right for Texas.  |

we have the strangest winds here. yesterday i pulled into the carport and the second i got out of the jeep a wind shear came rolling through. you could see things flying horizontally through the air at hurricane speed. i thought it safer to be in the carport rather than run to the front door but the wind eddied in the carport and i still was pummeled with dirt, leaves and branches. my garbage cans ended up 3 doors down and huge limbs were all over my yard. weird. it comes in a small path like a tornado. once we had one and it ripped off my fence gate (solid wood with strong hinges) but left a plastic yard chair a few feet away. and no rain with it. our monsoon started but we just got the wind yesterday. red meat is not bad for you. fuzzy, green meat is bad for you. `

Yesterday we had a quite bad thunderstorm where i live. This is not strange per se, but before the storm both me and my wife detected something that resonated in some of the metal parts in our house. It sounded like a very low base note that had an eerie quality that i cant describe. No windows ratteled and nothing really moved so it didnt go through ground... so it seems it originated from the air. Now i dont know if it could happen but my theory is that the previous high air pressure (very warm weather and clear skies) colliding w a low pressure front (Overcast clouds and lots and lots of rain) coupled w electric discharge (lightning) creates VLF signals... is this even possible?

gridghost, We had a similar thing happen during that terrible thunderstorm we had (6000 lightening strikes). The thunder sounded more like explosions and they were at a lower resonance frequency than any I have ever heard before. It was very strange...sounded more like artillery explosions than thunder. There were what I would call 'normal' close strikes, but these sounded very different. Never remember that happening before. It was very strange.

Here in Connecticut in New England, its just been one massive thunderstorm after another for weeks now almost every day. Lots of flooding some areas, downed trees. Had a tornado as well last week in Whethersfield, CT. One lightning strike yesterday was very close, sounded like a shotgun going off outside my back door. Nothing but spring type weather here in the N.E. so far this summer. Yeah the shotgun blast I described, have heard a few of those, not the normal rumble, just a massive fast quick explotion sound.

susi I remember experiencing something like what you described when I was about 13 years old. It was like a lil mini hurricane came down the street. It was around 4pm on garbage day, so all the trash had been picked up, all the neighbors coming home around 5-6 were wondering the streets trying to figure out who's garbage can was who's, it was actually kind of funny looking back on it.

Yesterday the shift in barometric pressure sent my neighbor in for Migraine shots. I just have a bad case of sinus slime with the typical overall body aches of unsettled weather. I slept with a few pounds of fluorite on my face( felt like a few lbs) and averted a developing sinus headache. |

The weather has been strange these past few weeks. Lots of rain, cool, on Sunday morning it was 46. Last night we had some wicked thunderstorms. In Yonkers, NY they had to bring out the snow plows because there was 5 inches of hail, plus lots of trees down. The national weather guy said it wasn't a tornado but straight sheer winds 70-80 miles , he also said it was strange to have such strong thunderstorms so late at night with the low temps. It has been in the 70's and 50's at night. Just weird. The ocean water is too cold to go swimming. I hope the winter doesn't turn out to be nasty. |

Jimmy, right wing? Nah, just fairly conservative. According to those political chart thingies, I'm just a hair to the right of dead center. As for the Arctic ice pack...let me know when they get those fading sensors replaced and recalibrate their system. On a slightly related note, I cut down a Slippery Elm yesterday that decided to kill itself on my barn roof (grew into the metal roofing and got cut up). It was 8" in diameter and was only 8 years old. Seemed to be sucking huge amounts of carbon out of the air to grow like that. It'll burn nicely at the next bonfire. Since it was only 52 degrees this morning when I hopped in my car, I gotta do something to help warm things up. Universal Health Care: The DMV with wounds.

Sonork, you should save a bit of the bark and grind it up, it's great for sore throats  "To insist that the only reality are phenomenon that can be submitted to the paradigm of classical science is itself a religion" Dietrick Thomson

Here's one for Al Gorelioni - Coolest July 21 recorded in Nashville as cool wave continues in Tenn. By Associated Press 7:59 AM CDT, July 21, 2009 NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — Cool weather has broken a previous low temperature for July 21 in Nashville that was set when Rutherford B. Hayes was president. When the temperature at the National Weather Service station dipped to 58 degrees at 5:30 a.m. on Tuesday, it wiped out the previous record low for the date of 60 degrees, which was set in 1877. NWS forecaster Bobby Boyd noted it was the third consecutive morning when Nashville either tied or broke a daily low temperature record. Temperatures were cool, but did not break records at several Tennessee cities. Knoxville dropped to 59 degrees Tuesday morning, Chattanooga had 60 degrees, Tri-Cities recorded 58 degrees and Memphis was 69 degrees. Universal Health Care: The DMV with wounds.

Yes, it's an old remedy, you can still buy the lozenges for sore throats at most drug stores... Lucky you, it was 104 yesterday and about the same today. But it's a dry heat  "To insist that the only reality are phenomenon that can be submitted to the paradigm of classical science is itself a religion" Dietrick Thomson

Yes, we're supposed to have a record LOW for the HIGH tomorrow, 65!!! It's been 90-ish for the last couple of weeks. Rained really hard today with 2 more storms coming thru this afternoon, but cooler and we needed the rain  "To insist that the only reality are phenomenon that can be submitted to the paradigm of classical science is itself a religion" Dietrick Thomson

Here's one for Al Gorelioni - Ah yes, lets slam Al Gore. Global warming is the measure of average global temperatures, not what's happening locally. What has been predicted is wilder swings in extremes, which is exactly what is happening. Cool summer here too. I'll take it though, I hate the humidity. "Are you gonna make it all 220?"

Gorelioni! HA! We've had a very cool summer in central PA. We came up here to Lake Erie yesterday and the beach was JAMMED. We asked a few people who said it was one of the few days they'd been to the beach all summer! They also said the waves were unusually rough. I was at Lake Ontario 30 years ago, and they were barely lapping the shore; these were real pounders. I got pulled under and nearly lost my glasses! Today is equally sticky and around 87. But there are dreams that cannot be, And there are storms we cannot weather ....

Here in Jefferson County Alabama we are not able to grow Spanish Moss from the trees. From Montgomery to Selma and on south, it grows everywhere, but here Jefferson County has always been too cold (cold?), yes too cold, to allow the growth of Spanish Moss. Years ago one of my sisters tried to transplant some Spanish Moss into her backyard, tried and tried to get that stuff to grow, but it was just too mild/cold/whatever. Here in Jefferson County (Birmingham). Yesterday I'm driving down a busy road (here in Jefferson County) and what do I see--Spanish Moss hanging from a tree. Birmingham is about 1 hour's drive north of Montgomery. And now we have Spanish Moss. Mind you, I've only seen it that one time, but I'm keeping my eyes open. |

Yeah, Al Gore's heart's in the right place. It doesn't help that he's a rich guy that who's "carbon footprint" is as big as a greyhound bus. But he's an easy target. I was on Lake Superior not to long ago and the water was like glass. I'd never seen it that way, and most I talked to that day felt the same. eerie. I'll take the cool summer, it's just the COLD winter I could do without. "Are you gonna make it all 220?" "Yeah. 220... 221, whatever it takes"

If Al Gore had a heart, I doubt it would be in the right place. He's an elitist wonk who found a gravy train. Temps have flat lined or cooled since our 'hottest' year in 1998. Eerily following sunspot activity - or lack thereof. Just the opinion of a small scale environmental scientist turned full time soldier.... Universal Health Care: The DMV with wounds.

Ooooo, it's been in the 70's this week, it's heavenly! Usually in the 90's or 100's!!! And we had lots of "fall" rain a week or so ago, really greened everything up  "To insist that the only reality are phenomenon that can be submitted to the paradigm of classical science is itself a religion" Dietrick Thomson
