A Day of Calamity

And yet another disaster has hit. In Guatemala heavy rains and destructive mudslides have killed hundreds of people. In one instance a mudslide buried an entire town of at least 800 people. And now word this morning that Pakistan has suffered a 7.6 earthquake in populated areas and a number of fairly large aftershocks. Buildings have collapsed, homes destroyed, and many thousands have lost their lives. It has been written:

"For after your testimony cometh the testimony of earthquakes, that shall cause groanings in the midst of her, and men shall fall upon the ground and shall not be able to stand.

"And also cometh the testimony of the voice of thunderings, and the voice of lightnings, and the voice of tempests, and the voice of the waves of the sea heaving themselves beyond their bounds.

"And all things shall be in commotion; and surely, men's hearts shall fail them; for fear shall come upon all people"

Is God responsible for all of this destruction? Are we, in what people call "The Last Days"? There have been calamities throughout the earth's history. Many many disasters. How can we blame God for these things? It is true however that if we do not have his protection by doing the things that he has asked, we will be left to that which comes. Not very scientific eh? However the rain falls on the just and the unjust alike.

One thing that can help us, is to be prepared. History shows us that these disasters and calamities will occur again and again. It would be quite wise to prepare ahead of time. Emergency preparedness has become a necessity.
What are you doing to prepare?

They're Making a Monkey Out of You!

In Harrisburg, Pa. they've locked horns on Intelligent Design. Several families are suing the school district for sharing the theory with students and stating that Darwinism is "only" a theory not proven truth. Any of you that have been to TMG's site know where we stand on this argument. Maybe this time people will make the right choice! But our government is based on Darwinism. This belief permeates our society. No wonder we have so much crime and problems! If a person can say that he came from a monkey he can also say that he cannot be morally accountable.

"Attorneys for the plaintiffs began their case by arguing that intelligent design is a religious theory inserted in the school district's curriculum by the school board with no concern for whether it has scientific underpinnings. "They did everything you would do if you wanted to incorporate a religious point of view in science class and cared nothing about its scientific validity," attorney Eric Rothschild said. Miller, who was the only witness Monday, sharply criticized intelligent design and questioned the work that went into it by one of its leading proponents, Lehigh University biochemist Michael Behe, who will be a key witness for the district. The statement read to Dover students states in part, "Because Darwin's theory is a theory, it continues to be tested as new evidence is discovered." Miller said the words are "tremendously damaging," falsely undermining the scientific status of evolution. "What that tells students is that science can't be relied upon and certainly is not the kind of profession you want to go into," he said. "There is no controversy within science over the core proposition of evolutionary theory," he added. On the other hand, Miller said, "intelligent design is not a testable theory in any sense and as such it is not accepted by the scientific community." During his cross-examination of Miller, Robert Muise, another attorney for the law center, repeatedly asked whether he questioned the completeness of Darwin's theory. "Would you agree that Darwin's theory is not the absolute truth?" Muise said. "We don't regard any scientific theory as the absolute truth," Miller responded.

I guess that's the key isn't it? Science isn't really interested in truth. That is according to the Scientific Method. Are you willing to throw your support behind a group of people that are not interested in truth?

"To The Moon Alice, To The Moon!"

Alright, here we go again! Nasa announced yesterday that we will go to the moon... again. They say that preparations will take until 2018. If my math still works, that's 13 years. Here's the question - Why will it take 13 years now, when preparation only took 9 years when President Kennedy announced the moonshot back in the sixties????? Our technology has taken leaps and bounds since the sixties. Well I'm sorry, I don't believe we ever went to the moon in the first place. And the other significant issue - this is going to take billions according to NASA. Actually hundreds of billions! How many more bounced checks are we going to write? I don't know about you, but I could use some tax relief. Is this another ploy to bring the country together? You know, American pride? I think I can figure out a few different ways to spend $104 billion dollars. Perhaps that money will be spent on a better "Hollywood production" this time.

L.A. Electrical Outage and Ophelia

I cannot believe that one individual mistake can cause the outage of 2 million customers. If that were the case then the electrical grid would never stay up. In view of the fact that there was an X20 flare on the sun followed by at least 6 X flares in 2 days, this explanation of the power hit in Los Angeles is ludicrous.

I am doing extra study on our present topic but right now the hurricane Ophelia really worries me. It is almost on shore and the mandatory evacuations have not yet begun. At least most of the tourists are out of there. The eye of this storm is so huge-perhaps 75 to 100 miles across. I saw the north end start to go into the red on the radar cross-section of the storm. I am not sure what will happen but the area of the storm's eye is an indication of the intensity of the storm. It might well be worst than Katrina in terms of rainfall, and perhaps storm surge. I am just not sure how this is going to workout. If you assume the eye of Katrina was at least 50 miles across,then Ophelia would be at least 4 times the energy dump into the coastline than the other storm was capable of. I am guessing that Ophelia's eye is about 100 miles across and the ratio of the areas will dictate the amount of the energy dump,provided there are no other large energy drains happening such as a 7 or 8 magnitude earthquake for instance. I did notice that Ophelia did slow down in intensification when that 7.7 earthquake happened the other day in Papua,New Guineau.

Another thing that worries me about this storm is the direction that it is heading. I feel that if the storm were less intense, say with a much smaller eye and just an ordinary hurricane, I suspect that it would have long since have turned toward the northeast and be on a fast track out of the states. But, because the earth's magnetic forces are coming more into play in "ordinary weather", forces up to 10 times normal may be the new norm. This simply means that the storm may continue to be drawn further inland than would usually be expected of such a "low intensity" storm and cause far more damage than usual in such a situation. It just may be that the more rapid change in the location of the earth's magnetic north pole may be changing the direction and pull on the this particular storm, perhaps exerting a much greater force due to the magnetic hysterisis of such entities, much like that of a crystal. I wonder if this jerking motion on the storm(due to increased forces) could be responsible for some of the wobbling motion of this hurricane. I have also noticed the "squaring off" of a few hurricane eyes lately and if the crust can be affected with a jerk causing a large 9+ earthquake in Sumatra and an axis of rotation change for the whole world back in December, then certainly the forces exerted on a hurricane could cause much more change in direction and velocity of that entity or retardation of same in its motion (gases are affected much more than solids or liquids by more than 1000 times).

It also does not help for all those X flares to be so close in time to one another and for one to realize that they could also add to the hurricanes force with the collection of more water at 11 miles up where the charges are greater. This could add to the misery below the storm. There could be a significant amplification factor involved here, that is, of the strength of the storm as the charges brought in from space are much greater than down below say at the tropospheric levels(10,000 feet).

Now comes word from the The Weather Channel that the storm surge of this storm will coincide with the normal high tide to make matters worst. This just might become another worst case scenario for that part of the coastline of the U.S.

Addendum:9.13.05 8p.m. We have just had THREE more X-Flares this evening! Haven't seen this many X-Flares at one time over the past few days - ever!

Still Peddling Foolishness!

Another "discovery" by our friends over at Uniformitarian U is another proof that they're still clutching at strawdogs. Here's the byline:

"An ancient, near-death star with a disc of metal-rich dust orbiting around it has recently been discovered by astronomers. The dust's origin is a mystery, though, as it should have been sucked into the star within a few hundred years of the star's death.
Even though this anomaly is about 82 light-years away and several billion years old, astronomers think it could provide a preview of our solar system's future when the Sun dies five to six billion years from now.
Once the fuel ran out, the star lost plenty of mass and heat, and shriveled into a white dwarf – the final stage of star evolution where the star burns out and dies. Enough heat gets released during this process to vaporize any surrounding dust, rocks, and planets, leaving behind a disc of dust. This dust usually gets sucked into the newly formed white dwarf and incinerated within a few hundred years.
But when GD 362 went through this process five billion years ago, the dust never cleared up. And astronomers don't know how a dead star roughly the size of Earth has been able to sustain a disc the size of Saturn's rings for so long."

Are we the only one's getting this???? There's another force in the universe that is greater than gravity! And while we're at it - Maybe they could tell me again the makeup of stars or how stars/suns actually work? It's our belief that suns are not powered from within. But that's just like all of the other ideas that we have over here at TMG. The status quo, that is Dr. Uniformitarian, keeps telling himself that he's right, until eventually he comes out with a NEW DISCOVERY! Well that "new discovery" as new discoveries go, is actually an old thought from an incredible person like Immanuel Velikovsky, Tesla, Alfven, and Shulgin. But they're only crackpots.

MEGAFLARE!

Have you seen what's going on with the sun the last few days? Here's the xray graph. The X-flare is off the scale - a new level had to be put in to rate the flare! The planetary scale is also off the scale. This is a real event - did you happen to hear about it on the news tonight or in the last few nights? Of course not. With us still locked into the hurricane season and a killer typhoon just hitting Japan (did you hear about that one?), I just wonder how much power these flares will pump into these storms?

Hurricane Katrina

The governor of Louisiana has just gone on the air to let people in New Orleans know how serious the hurricane threat is to their city. Apparently, large numbers of people are simply refusing to heed warnings. President Bush has apparently taken the unprecedented step in issuing a pre-emergency alert for the state of Louisiana. The Mayor of News Orleans has gone on the air to plead for people to get out, calling this "the real deal, and not a drill."
I just saw another weather expert get on Fox to warn the people of New Orleans to get out. He is saying this is a doomsday scenario! Jeff Marlow of TWC is warning that it is a real bad hurricane. The expert from Fox is saying it is heading for waters that are at 91 or 92 degrees F. This is the warmest they have seen these waters in many years. He is predicting that this thing will equal Camille which hit Biloxi with 200 mph winds around 1969. "We think the storm is going to 150 or 160 mph." He says there will be hurricane force winds all the way to Mobile, Alabama.
Jeff Morrow of TWC said the monster keeps on growing and developing continually throughout the evening. Every report that he sees shows more development and lower pressure, which is now down to 936 mb at 12:00 CST. I watched Jim Cantore a couple of nights ago when Katrina went through Florida(6th hurricane in 1 year). He was saying that this is more than a cat
1 hurricane as he bucked the winds during his report. I got a funny feeling then about this whole thing. I stay tuned to the telecast for some time after and noticed that the hurricane actually strengthened while still over Florida. It is growing stronger which each passing hour-at night. That pretty unusual. TWC says it will reach a cat 4 storm, but the Fox expert says way up there into a cat 5! They keep talking of a doomsday scenario. One of the bouys out in the gulf read 34 feet on wave height a few minutes ago.
In Florida, 700,000 people are still without power in the wake of Katrina.
ADDENDUM 8.28.05 09am pacific:
What can I say about this monster. With winds of 175 mph sustained and only 225 miles sse of New Orleans, the thing continues to grow. It grew all through the night. Before I went to bed at 1:30 a.m. last night, I turned on the news to find that the storm was at 145 mph or only 6 mph from cat 5 at that time. I just woke up a few minutes ago to find that this thing has gone to 175 mph sustained. It is approaching Camille's intensity. It is still growing and the water temp where it is approaching is at 90+ degrees F. The peak winds are above 200mph I would imagine. I heard someone on the news say that there is no veering away for this storm as it's now too large to make much of a difference in direction, only a slight change in its direction. They also said that only an act of God could make a difference here. Its funny that they would even mention Him but at least they did on Fox News. President Bush is expected to make a speech on the Iraqi Constitution and its expected he will make a few statements about the situation in the gulf also. This will happen about 11:00 a.m. or so CST or 9:00 a.m. on the West coast. The energy this thing will put into the area will be enormous and something might break loose somewhere else.
Take care and may the Lord be with us all through this.

ADDENDUM 8.31.05 06pm pacific:
The governor of Louisiana is saying now that there are 1000's of deaths. This has truly become a catastrophe of Biblical proportions. The very scary thing is that the temperature is still higher than normal and the hurricane season may have more than six weeks to go - maybe more. And there is a developing tropical storm in the Atlantic heading this way.
ADDENDUM 9.1.05 05pm pacific:
The power was out to 2.4 million customers after Katrina. 70 percent of Mississippi's power grid has been destroyed. Right now, power has been completely restored in Florida and a good part of Georgia. Power remains out for 1.2 million people. The authority who talked of the power situation said that trucks will soon be pouring into Alabama and Mississippi. Georgia is rapidly coming under control and only New Orleans will be the real problem due to the standing water. This is the biggest power outage ever. This came over fox news.
FEMA has told EMTS that its too dangerous to work in New Orleans. This situation there has certainly deteriorated badly and I wonder if all this is the result of drugs and all the other turf wars that occur. I also heard reports of gangs in the Superdome and some stabbings that may have occurred.
We are certainly witnessing some of the worst behavior that human beings are capable. You would think that the people would be grateful for rescue, yet others still seek to control them.
Over in New Orleans this morning, a military rescue chopper was hit by gunfire and apparently one man was hit. The evacuation has been suspended because of this event. The Astrodome over in Houston,Tx has taken in perhaps a few thousand, but most of the people are still in New Orleans. Its like a gang of thieves and smugglers are being dismantled one by one in that city. The mayor has ordered 1500 officers to quit looking for survivors and to concentrate on restoring law and order in the city. That leaves only 200 or so to continue looking for those in great distress.
May the Lord be with all who are trying to help and are trying to restore order in the city. I just heard that many boats and people waiting to go into the city have been ordered to stand down because they have also been shot at. What a sad situation when people who may be at death's door cannot be rescued because others want to retain control for their own evil purposes.

Puzzling Hot Spot Found on Moon of Saturn

It seems that NASA doesn't know EMF (ElectroMagnetic Flux) when they see it. This story from a recent NASA "discovery":
"In July, NASA 's Cassini spacecraft made its latest flyby of Saturn's moon Enceladus, revealing an unexpected hot spot on the moon's south pole. The finding flipped everything scientists knew about Enceladus on its head, because what should have been a dead moon appeared to be geologically active and what was supposed to be the moon's coldest region turned out to be its warmest. 'This is as astonishing as if we'd flown past Earth and found that Antarctica was warmer than the Sahara,' said John Spencer, an astronomer from the Southwest Research Institute in Colorado and a co-investigator of the Cassini mission."
I would like to recommend a related article - Saturn's Sweeper Moon's Predicted by Professor James McCanney. I'm sure before we know it they'll be taking credit for Professor McCanney's work again. Another source to check out concerning this issue is The Electric Universe, Wal Thornhill's page. Needless to say the universe, or reality is - that EMF controls matter not gravity. It's the Golden Mean, it's the spirit in the in the being. Opinion anyone?

Science Surprized Once Again!

Hurricane's Waves Soared to Nearly 100 Feet
Thu Aug 4, 3:21 PM ET
Waves nearly 100 feet tall were recorded last year in the Gulf of Mexico when Hurricane Ivan headed toward shore, forcing scientists to rethink what is normal. The center of the category 4 hurricane, with winds raging up to 150 miles per hour, passed right over six of the Naval Research Laboratory's wave-tide gauges, churning up waves more than 90 feet high. "We were a little surprised that the waves were so large," Bill Teague of the Naval Research Laboratory (NRL) at Stennis Space Center told LiveScience.
The hurricane's are getting stronger, winds are blowing harder, more rain, hotter heat, drought, floods. No wonder they're surprized. It's no longer fitting into the uniformitarian paradigm. The greatest surprize as of the last few years was the sun not acting up on schedule as they predicted. Solar Max was a flop. Yet sporadically, the sun has blasted us with bigger flares and cosmic rays. Were's it all going? And why the increase in intensity over the last few years? Is there a corellation somewhere? with something? anything? Reader's of TMG will know exactly why. Do you have an opinion?

What Is Your Belief? What Does The Future Hold For Mankind?

Today we posted an article concerning some things that we believe are happening in the space above us. We would really like to know your opinion. Do you think that we are reaching, or do you think that we aren't going far enough? Do you believe that UFO's even exist? If you do, how many different groups or should we say "species" exist? Are they organized? What about God? Does her exist and if you believe he does, does he have anything to do with these "visitations"? One of the areas that we have been very interested in is the degree to which our government is aware of all of this? Me, personally, I believe that when we finally know the entire truth, if ever, we will realize that we fell far short of the actual truth. That we are simply just now scratching the surface. So what do you think about all of this?

Shuttle Delay or What?

I have to ask some questions concerning the delayed shuttle blast off! Sure they're being safe. That makes sense. But are we getting the true reasons? I do not believe that the Columbia disaster was caused by a piece of foam. The images of an electrical charge hitting the ship were much more convincing than a piece of foam (Check out the link to Wal Thornhill's page - Holoscience). I know what many of you are saying: conspiracy nut! Conspiracy nut! However if there were never anyone that asked "What if?"... well, you get the picture. Let me run a nutty possibility past you. "What if..." all of the things that we have heard about UFO's are true? What if there was actually a crash of a UFO in the New Mexico desert? What if we really recovered bodies from the crash? What if the literally thousand of reports and images made have been real? What if only a fraction of them are real? I would encourage you to read a book by Richard Dolan on UFO's and the government coverup. The book was very well done, his research was impeccable, and the conclusions are undeniable. Have you wondered why our government has cut funding to earth based NASA research, and has rather put all of their(our) eggs in the space exploration basket? I propose that many of our top government folks know of the UFO threat. I further propose that certain factions of these aliens have threatened us to not continue with our space exploration program or else. Or else... the Columbia disaster. You get the picture I'm sure. I would imagine that they must look as though they're going to go through with the mission, at least to the U.S. citizenry that is watching quite close. Reality may be completely different than what we have been led to believe. It doesn't take all of NASA to work through a conspiracy like this. Just a few people in the front office. Of course I'm just a conspiracy nut! And I don't even believe that we went to the moon. What do you think?

Dear NASA, Do Your Rockets Pollute?

Sometime ago my wife and I attended a JPL open house. My wife got into quite a heated arguement with one of the scientists concerning the amount of pollution that their rockets put into our environment. The reason she asked, was that the display reported that a great amount of rocket fuel is not even burned in a blast off. He vigoursly defended himself, but the numbers spoke for themselves.

And now... this story today in papers across the country. Pretty scary. What excuse will they use? How will they explain this away?

"Scientists on Tuesday reported that perchlorate, a toxic component of rocket fuel, was contaminating virtually all samples of women's breast milk and its levels were found to be, on average, five times greater than in cow's milk.

The contaminant, which originates mostly at defense industry plants, previously had been detected in various food and water supplies around the country. But the study by Texas Tech University's Institute of Environmental and Human Health was the first to investigate breast milk.

The findings concern health experts because infants and fetuses are the most vulnerable to the thyroid-impairing effects of the chemical.

Breast milk from 36 women in 18 states, including California, was sampled, and all contained traces of perchlorate.

Perchlorate blocks the nutrient iodide and inhibits thyroid hormones, which are necessary for brain development and cellular growth of a fetus or infant. A baby with impaired thyroid development may have neurological defects that result in lower IQ or learning disabilities."

I have nothing against space exploration. But when our tax dollars pay for faulty and harmful science, when should we stop it? Not only are they keeping results from the tax paying public, they're now polluting and harming our children.

Earthquake/Tsunami/Machholz 2 Changes The Face of The Earth

The numbers of dead are now according to one report up over 280,000! Perhaps more remarkable than this, if possible, is the fact that the rift created by the 9.0+ earthquake was as wide as California and a thousand miles long! That's hard to conceptualize. Some reports state that the level of all of the world's oceans was lowered by 4 inches! In addition to these incredible claims, it has also been reported that the earth's rotational speed slowed by three seconds. If these claims are true, we truly live in an incredible day. We stand by the claim that this earthquake was a result of a close pass by a highly energetic comet.

And it's still acting out. Today marks a total of five X flares in so many days and today's X-flare is huge! That's more activity, in about a week, than occurred during the last so-called "solar max" that I recall. The sun's storming. It's like someone snapped the electrical rubberband between the comet and the sun. Hopefully we won't get in the way too much. I think that it may be impossible to escape. Hold on!

Here's number 5 X-Flare:

Did Comet Machholz Create The Tsunami?

In past articles at TMG we have repeatedly shown that there is a relationship between heightened disasterous events and the appearance of comets in our part of the Solar System. Currently there is a visible comet in the area. The comet is Machholz 2 and appears to be highly charged by the appearance of two tails. The occurrence of a number of events reveals that once again there is strong evidence for comets being considered harbingers of doom. Uniformitarians have scoffed and called us names over the past for presenting these ideas. Take some time to read the latest article at The Millennium Group's site and then please come back and post your opinion. Thanks again for reading.
