The Mayans, Coronal Mass Ejection and the End of the World as We Know It.

Venus passes directly between the Sun and Earth.

According to Mayan prophecy the year 2012 has a special significance.  In June of 2012 one of the rarest astronomical events occurred. Venus passed directly between the Sun and Earth heralding,  on December 21, 2012, "the end" and the return of the “feathered snake God” Kukulcan. The question on the minds of many: “The end of what?” The world and/or all of mankind?  Elders, Mayan and Hopi, believe the "end" is  not necessarily the end of the world but rather the end of an era – a transformation. The elders  explanation doesn't offer much clarification.  Is it a physical transformation, a spiritual transformation or perhaps both?  Mainstream scholars have not “bought into” the prognostications put forth by the Mayans and others - but what do mainstream scholars have to say about current known threats to planet earth?

X-class solar flare 10/22/12 from NASA

According to scientists who study the star's activity our sun is currently in Solar Cycle 24 and it is expected to last through 2013. Powerful solar flares release waves of radiation into space and can release bubbles of "charged plasma", Coronal Mass Ejections said to travel at millions of miles per hour, which can cause geomagnetic storms that disrupt radio communication, power grids and cause unusual displays of northern and southern "lights". According to Planetsave, “A powerful X-Class solar flare exploded from the Sun on Monday, October 22, 2012. It released large amounts of radiation, some of which has already caused a minor radio blackout here on Earth.”. It seems that disruptions are not widely reported – you have to search for them.  One wonders  “Why?” as this seems to be a "news worthy" event - more so than the latest exploits of the Kardashian girls.

The largest known solar flare was produced by a powerful solar storm known as the Carrington event. It occurred in 1859 during Solar Cycle 10.  The solar flare caused a major “CME” and a magnetic storm that struck earth. The geomagnetic disturbances were strong enough to cause the failure of telegraph systems all over Europe and North America. USA telegraph operators reported sparks leaping from their equipment and some bursting into flames. Northern lights, some bright enough to read by, were reported as far south as Cuba and Honolulu, while southern lights were seen as far north as Santiago, Chile.

According to a 2009 report funded by NASA: “They found that almost nothing is immune from space weather—not even the water in your bathroom.”  "A contemporary repetition of the Carrington Event would cause … extensive social and economic disruptions," the report warns. Power outages would be accompanied by radio blackouts and satellite malfunctions; telecommunications, GPS navigation, banking and finance, and transportation would all be affected. Some problems would correct themselves with the fading of the storm: radio and GPS transmissions could come back online fairly quickly. Other problems would be lasting: a burnt-out multi-ton transformer, for instance, can take weeks or months to repair. The total economic impact in the first year alone could reach $2 trillion, some 20 times greater than the costs of a Hurricane Katrina or, to use a timelier example, a few TARPs."

In 1859 the loss of the ability to send or receive telegraph messages was an inconvenience to some folks but life went on without any major changes or  disruptions.  How would we fare today? The problem begins with our electric power grids and the fact that we are "hooked up" to that grid.  This incredibly complex system is interconnected throughout North America.  Plasma balls exploding from the Sun's surface could blow out giant transformers. A “tripped” circuit causing a black out is one thing but what happens when solar particles cause power surges that destroy multiple, massive transformers throughout our planet? These transformers can take a long time to replace, especially if hundreds are destroyed at once.

 “What does this have to do with Kukulcan and the Mayan’s predictions?”  December 21, 2012 is the date on the Mayan calendar that marks the end of the long cycle. According to the elders it does not mean that a transformation will occur on that exact day. The elders say that the changes or transformation to our planet and consciousness will occur within a seven year period of time  around 2012. Solar cycle 24 began January 8, 2008. NASA predicts that it will peak in early or mid 2013.  According to the Hopi elders " When the Blue Star makes its appearance in the heavens, the Fifth World will emerge." According to SpaceWeather.com  on "October 24, 2007 the comet 17P/Holmes shocked astronomers with a spectacular eruption.   In less than 24 hours, the 17th magnitude comet brightened by a factor of nearly a million, becoming a naked-eye object in the evening sky. By mid-November the expanding comet was the largest object in the solar system - bigger even than the Sun."

Transformer fire resulting from CME March 1989.

According to NASA, "On March 13, 1989 the entire province of Quebec, Canada suffered an electrical power blackout. Hundreds of blackouts occur in some part of North America every year. The Quebec Blackout was different, because this one was caused by a solar storm!"  Could a catastrophic disruption of our power grid be the "trigger" that brings about  the transformation that the Mayan and Hopi elders prophesied?    Our world as we know it would come to an end. Our lives would be different in ways that we never thought possible. No more instant communication via cell, Internet and social media. Things we take for granted today - electricity, natural gas, air conditioning, ATMs, trips to the grocery store to purchase food, micro wave popcorn, cold beer, water and sewage treatment plants etc would be gone. A major change to life as we know it - a transformation that we would assume/hope would be temporary. But what happens when a massive solar storm destroys multiple transformers in our power grid? According to the office of emergency response at the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) recovery could take as much as a decade - wreaking havoc with the USA and world infrastructure and economy. “This is not science fiction. It is fact,” says Joe McClelland, director of the office of emergency response at the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission . He says it has happened before but with far less severe economic consequences. It is likely to happen again and, according to space scientists, it could happen in the next few years, as a period of unusually calm solar weather reverses, picks up energy, and gets nasty.

Nuclear power plant reactor building 4.

The loss of electricity is the most obvious effect resulting from a power grid outage - there are also secondary effects - nuclear power plants pose the greatest potential for causing a catastrophic event that could forever change our lives and the planet. The fuel elements of a nuclear reactor have a cooling system to prevent them from over heating and "melting down". Back up power sources insure that power will be available to power cooling and other systems in case of a black out. In the event of a meltdown there is a possibility of a containment breach that could cause radioactive materials to be dispersed resulting in radioactive fallout and contamination of everything in the dispersal area. There have been a number of nuclear accidents around the world. The 1986 Chernobyl accident is considered one of the worst. For 10 days radioactive substances were released into the air.  In March 2011 an earthquake followed by a tsunami resulted in the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear disaster. The reactor's emergency generators kicked in to maintain control of electrical and cooling systems but the tsunami caused flooding and the electrical generators where rendered inoperable. When a reactor is shut down the "decay heat" continues for hours and sometimes days - during this time the cooling system must be in full operation to prevent meltdown. Recent reports concluded that the Fukushima meltdown was not caused by the earthquake and tsunami but resulted from human error. What ever the cause the fact is that radioactive materials were released into the atmosphere and the sea.

According to the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA) there are 65 commercially operated nuclear power plants with 104 nuclear reactors in 31 states around the country. Thirty-six of the plants have two or more reactors.   Benjamin K. Sovakool reports that there has been 99 nuclear accidents from 1952 to 2009.  All of the nuclear power plants have redundant safe guards and back up power systems. The probability of  an incident leading to a core melt down is statistically very small. Not a very comforting fact if you  were one of the 350,000 people who were evacuated or one of the 4,000 plus people who had died as a result of the Chernobyl melt down. Nor is it a comforting fact when you think about the Carrington event and how the solar storm caused power surges in telegraph equipment - causing some of them to burst into flames. The 1989 solar storm that fried transformers in Quebec clearly reflects their destructive power and the possibility that Solar Cycle 24  could unleash CMEs that are capable of triggering the catastrophic event - bringing about the end of our "modern day" world.

Kukulcan also appeared in human form.

From one day to the next our priorities would change. It wouldn't matter how much money we had in the bank or how many electronic gadgets we own. We would have to adapt in order to survive. Could this be the impetus that would bring about a spiritual transformation? People coming together, sharing knowledge, resources and helping each other. As to the return of  Kukulcan - the feathered snake God- he also had a human form that looked nothing like the dark complected Mayans. Mayan sculptures and writings depict him as a tall, blue eyed Caucasian man with long white hair and skin. He promised to return as he had left - from the east over the ocean. 

Osama bin Laden - dead men tell no lies.

"The Finish" a new book by Mark Bowden author of “Black Hawk Down”, says that President Obama wanted to put Osama bin Laden on trial. Obama expected bin Laden to go down fighting according to Bowden. As to why Obama wanted to put bin Laden on trial Bowden quotes the President as saying, "Frankly, my belief was if we had captured him, that I would be in a pretty strong position  politically here, to argue that displaying due process and rule of law would be our best weapon against al-Qaida in preventing him from appearing as a martyr".

 But was capture ever a realistic possibility?  US officials have said the Navy SEAL team was ordered to capture bin Laden if he surrendered or kill him if he threatened them. Bowden asserts the SEALs could have taken bin Laden alive but had no intention of doing so.  Contrary to what had been reported Matt Bissonnette, a member of the SEAL team that killed bin Laden, and author of “No Easy Day: The Firsthand Account of theMission That Killed Osama bin Laden”, says that night the “point man” saw a man poking his head out and shot at him. The SEALs then went slowly to the room and entered. They found a man lying on the floor, “In his death throes, he was still twitching and convulsing,” Bissonnette goes on to say, “Another assaulter and I trained our lasers on his chest and fired several rounds. The bullets tore into him, slamming his body into the floor until he was motionless.” Unconfirmed sources also assert that taking bin Laden alive was never going to happen – bin Laden knew too much. Bissonnette’s account seems to substantiate that.  Dead men tell no lies.

While our elected representatives “come and go” there are people who “remain in place” no matter which party is in power. There are “those” who are consistently appointed to positions of power and influence – no matter what their political affiliations may be. Why? Where does their first loyalty lie?  Whose interests do they represent?  What “strings” won't they pull at the behest of their masters? To what lengths will they go to “hide” their machinations and manipulations from the public? And if something “leaks” out it's discounted, dismissed and labeled as the product of “conspiracy theorist”. What happens to individuals who are suspected as being a source, or a potential source, of a “leak”? How many witnesses to the JFK assassination died? And what was the probability of the unnatural death of those witnesses?

There are those who assert that bin Laden was a CIA “intelligence asset” – assigned the name Tim Osman – and that he “toured” the U. S.  A former British Foreign secretary, Robin Cook said: “Bin Laden was, though, a product of a monumental miscalculation by western security agencies. Throughout the 80s he was armed by the CIA and funded by the Saudis to wage jihad against the Russian occupation of Afghanistan.”

There are claims that the CIA knew bin Laden’s “whereabouts” and that in July 2001 a CIA head of station actually met with bin Laden at the American Hospital in Dubai,UAE. CBS’s Dan Rather reported that bin Laden, who was on the FBI’s most wanted list at that time, was back in the hospital, one day before the 9/11 attacks. Is it conceivable that Dan Rather could know this but the FBI and the “intelligence community” did not? 

Then there are those who claim that bin Laden was already dead – that he had died years before; and that the 9/11 attack was actually a “false flag” event.  According to Paul Joseph Watson, of infowars.com, “Top US government insider Dr. Steve R. Pieczenik, a man who held numerous different influential positions under three different Presidents and still works with the Defense Department, shockingly told The Alex Jones Show yesterday that Osama Bin Laden died in 2001…”, he goes on to say that “…Pieczenik served as the Deputy Assistant Secretary of State under three different administrations, Nixon, Ford and Carter, while also working under Reagan and Bush senior, and still works as a consultant for the Department of Defense. A former US Navy Captain, Pieczenik achieved two prestigious Harry C. Solomon Awards at the Harvard Medical School as he simultaneously completed a PhD at MIT.” 

Are these claims nothing more than the “product” of conspiracy theorists - as some allege?  What are we to believe? All we know for certain is that bin Laden was not captured and tried. And if Bissonnette is to be believed, bin Laden was unarmed and “dispatched” while lying on his back - notwithstanding the order to capture him. Was the man killed that night the “real” bin Laden or a double – put in place because bin Laden had died? Was the “real” bin Laden silenced that night because there were those who knew if he was captured there was the potential that he could reveal information validating assertions that bin Laden had connections to and was still working with individuals in the intelligence community? Was there a secret “counter” order to assassinate bin Laden?  Did Bissonnette give us a clue? Letting us know  that bin Laden was unarmed and executed while lying wounded on the floor which is contrary to the administrations original assertions that bin Laden was killed while resisting capture.

Why not drop in for a drink and a vibrator...

In July of this year Love Joule opened in Tokyo's Shibuya district. According to Akiko Teishi, who interviewed bar patrons, the locals refer to it as the “female masturbation bar”.  According to Akiko Sayama, a nurse and frequent bar patron, says the bar is about breaking barriers – it is an outlet for women in the country often faced with the rapid sexualizing of women in the country. Sayama added, “I go because it is a safe place and I don't have to worry about trying to brush off men all the time. Add in that it is also a great place to drink and talk about what we women love to talk about, sex and guys, that's also a big pull,” she told Bikyamasr.com.

Lkuko Ikeshita of Ikeshita Ladies’ Clinic told Japanese web magazine ZakZak, “Traditionally, whenever a female patient would come in with a problem like having a sex toy get stuck, hospital staff would look at them coldly, now people realize that it's just something that happens.” One wonders just how prevalent this problem is...

9/11 - Eleven years later and the controversy continues.

According to the New York Times, "...By May 1, the Central Intelligence Agency told the White House of a report that “a group presently in the United States” was planning a terrorist operation.

Thanks to "anonymous" who emailed a link to a video that, if "real", asserts that a cruise missile actually hit the pentagon. Why hasn't the FBI released all of the footage that they confiscated from various CCTVs that showed what hit the pentagon? There is only one reason that I can think of as to why they haven't released them...

Leaked 9/11 Pentagon cruise missile footage with analysis.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The release of the 9/11 commission report, which was edited "of potentially classified material", raised and continues to raise more questions than it has answered. People around the world continue to express their lack of faith in the report - calling it a cover up or a white wash of the actual circumstances and perpetrators of the 9/11 attacks.  While it is easy to paint those who question the conclusions of the report with the derisive term "conspiracy theorist" the fact is that many have pointed out anomalies and raised questions that have not been adequately explained or investigated. This leads to further speculation as to why there has been no further "official" inquiry.

Architects and Engineers for 9/11 truth, who claim to represent over 1,700 architects and engineers who have signed a petition citing evidence of a controlled explosion,  state that, "We are a non-partisan association of architects, engineers and affiliates dedicated to exposing the falsehoods and to revealing truths about the “collapses” of the 3 World Trade Center high-rises on September 11, 2001.  Intelligence professionals, former military analyst, CIA veterans, Pulitzer prize winning investigative reporters and other "highly credible people" have questioned the findings of the 9/11 commission - some going on record with their belief that it was an "inside job".

Former Governor and Navy SEAL Jessie Ventura conducted his own investigation and he has gone on record, not only expressing his doubts, in no uncertain terms about the 9/11 commission's report, but seeking answers to specific questions about the "explosion below" that eye witness William Rodriguez spoke about, the thermite discovered in the dust at the World Trade Center site, why our air defenses were in a stand down mode and what happened to the black boxes that Mike Malone swears he found and recovered at ground zero.

What ever your thoughts are about the veracity of the 9/11 commission's report the fact is that this event has forever changed America - and not for the better. This attack was the impetus for the so called Patriot Act - that has gutted our Bill of Rights,  two wars that have resulted in hundreds of thousands of deaths and injuries, and a tremendous windfall of tax payers dollars that have been transferred to the military industrial complex.

Will we ever know the truth?

Will we ever regain the rights that we have lost?

Will the Military Industrial Complexes' appetite for tax payers dollars make it impossible for us to ever live in peace?

Hackers Say FBI Has ID Numbers from more than 12 million iPhones, iPads and other devices. Are you on the list?

The hacker group AntiSec posted a file to a website that they say contains 1 million "unique device identifiers" or UDIDs. They claim the "complete" file contained user names, name of device type of device, Apple Push Notification Service tokens as well as zip codes, cell phone numbers and addresses. The hacker group claims they retrieved the file with more than 12 million identification numbers for Apple iPhones, iPads and other devices, from an FBI laptop. The FBI has disputed the allegation and states "at this time, there is no evidence indicating that an FBI laptop was compromised or that the FBI either sought or obtained this data.

AntiSec claims they found the file on a Dell laptop computer that allegedly belongs to Christoper K. Stangl who is associated with the FBI's Cyber Action Teams. AntiSec said the file was called "NCFTA_iOS_devices_intel.csv". The FBI denies the hacker group's claim that the FBI's intent was to track Apple users.

New Jersey Supermarket Employee Kills 2 - Shoots Self

According to Rene Lynch of the Los Angeles Times  a super market employee walked into a New Jersey super market with an AK-47 and a automatic pistol and killed two employees before killing himself. The article goes on to say, "The incident is likely to reignite debate over guns - especially assault rifles -- and gun violence in America. It occurs just weeks after the Aurora, Colo., movie theater shooting and the Sikh temple shooting in Wisconsin."

According to Reuters  Old Bridge Mayor Owen Henry described the suspected shooter as a former marine and a disgruntled worker who had been employed by the Pathmark for just a few weeks, the Star-Ledger newspaper said.

Questions:
How does a person who has been employed for "just a few weeks" become "disgruntled" enough to shoot co-workers?

Are these shootings isolated incidents or is there "more than meets the eye"?

Will this cause citizens to rethink their position on gun ownership?

I'd like to know what you think.

UPDATED: Aurora Shooting Eyewitness - Possible second shooter

The mystery deepens. An eyewitness to the shooting states that "he had someone with him". He also stated that the second cannister of gas "did not come from his side". According to Michael Kelly's  article in the  business insider at a July 20 press conference Chief Dan Oates said investigators were confident that James Holmes acted alone and that he was "apprehended outside his White Hyundai parked in the back of the theater..."

BUT - the article goes on to state that skeptics point to an exchange in the police transmissions as evidence that Holmes was found in his LOCKED car with a gas mask on and heavily drugged and it appears they were prepared to carry him out on a white stretcher board (pictured underneath the car). Three minutes after Holmes was supposedly detained in/by his car, an officer says "One of the shooters might be wearing a white and blue plaid shirt" and the dispatcher responds "Copy, outstanding shooter possibly wearing a white and blue plaid shirt."

Factor in that a second gas mask was found hundreds of feet from Theater 9's emergency exit and Holmes' car. Keep in mind that Holmes was immediately arrested in the back of the theater 90 seconds after the first 911 call was made and was found wearing a different gas mask.

Now that the Holmes case is sealed the records can not be examined and compared to the information that we currently have.

Why was there a second gas mask?
Was there a second shooter?
Does it seems that Holmes was conveniently left to take the "rap"?
Who could have been behind this?
Will we ever know what really happened?

Should Mitt Romney Release More Tax Returns? What do you think?

Mitt's wife Ann told NBC that her husband's campaign will not release any additional tax returns to the public. Some say this is a partisan issue but at least 20 prominent Republicans have gone on record saying that Romney should release more returns.

Why do you think Mitt is not releasing more of his tax returns? Will the returns reveal information that Mitt wants to conceal from the public? Should Mitt release more returns or is this a non issue.

Aurora Shooting - An Unusual Shroud Of Secrecy

According to Yahoo News an editorial by the Denver Post says Sylvester's order has "imposed an unusual shroud of secrecy on the case" and goes beyond protecting the defendant's right to a fair trial.  

Rumors that the father of the shooter ties Libor banking scandal have surfaced and as of yet authorities claim they have no idea as to the motive of the shooter.   The Los Angeles Times, quoting Anthony Mai (a family friend), described Holmes in the following way: “I saw him as a normal guy, an everyday guy, doing everyday things.” He was a “very shy, well-mannered young man who was heavily involved in their local Presbyterian church.” Similarly, an AP Reportincluded the assessment of Jackie Mitchell, who lived in the same neighborhood as Holmes and reportedly had a beer with him the  week of the shootings. “We just talked about football. He had a backpack and geeky glasses and seemed like a real intelligent guy,” Mitchell said. “And I figured he was one of the college students.” Noting that he had “swagger,” Mitchell’s “insight,” albeit based on a single encounter, purportedly authenticates a narrative of Holmes as a “normal” All-American kid.  He drinks beer and talks football like  many other 24-year olds. Other reports depict Holmes as “reserved” and “respectful;” as a “loner” and as a “kid,” despite being 24-years old.


Why the shroud of secrecy? Will the facts show that the shooter actually had no motive and no recollection of what he had done? Is there more to this then what meets the eye? Was he in fact a "sleeper assassin test subject"? Will we ever know for sure?

Mitt Romney says America is "poised to take off economically."

After attacking President Obama, for what Mitt calls "an extraordinary series of policy failures, Mitt goes on to describe America as being "poised to take off economically."  My guess is that Mitt and team will be walking his comment back soon.

Defense spending, National Security and the Military Industrial Complex

"You're constantly being given false choices," Rubio told reporters this week on Capitol Hill. "'If you want to save national security, you have to agree to raise taxes that will hurt our economy.' Well, that's a false choice and quite frankly it's a destructive one."

Talk about false choices. This is being positioned to the American people as being about national security. The reality is that it's about funneling cash to the Military Industrial Complex. In order for the MIC to stay in business they need to find new markets (wars) to pedal their "products". If peace breaks out around the world there will be stock piles of their "products" as governments would not be buying war related goods and services. To stay in business the MIC needs soldiers to keep shooting, bombs to keep falling, military vehicles to keep getting destroyed so they can be replaced. Economics 101 - if there is no demand for your products your business will fail. So don't expect peace to break out any time soon as our elected officials serve at the will of the MIC and any actions they take will be to further perpetuate conflicts that will continue to drive more and more tax dollars to the MIC...

Some are trying to position this as a free speech or freedom of religion issue but the fact is that Dan Cathy, Chick-fil-A's president went on record that he has  donated millions of dollars  to conservative organizations that oppose homosexuality "and he openly condemn the beliefs of a big chunk of Chick-fil-A’s audience, he implied that their views are unpatriotic and even put the country at risk."


Dan and his supporters do have rights and are entitled to live and vocalize their beliefs that a specific community of AMERICAN CITIZENS are not created equal and do not have unalienable rights. They can even exclude that specific community of AMERICAN CITIZENS from attending their churches, schools and events. But what audacity to attempt to portray themselves as the injured party when they have ALL of their unalienable rights intact. Their position mimics those who wanted race-based legal restrictions on marriage in the United States. And they couch their prejudice in religion just like judge "Leon M. Bazile, who echoed Johann Friedrich Blumenbach's 18th-century interpretation of race, proclaimed that:

Almighty God created the races white, black, yellow, malay and red, and he placedthem on separate continents. And but for the interference with his arrangement there would be no cause for such marriages. The fact that he separated the races shows that he did not intend for the races to mix."

I for one am glad that the Mayors had the courage of their convictions to speak out and I am sure they are prepared to accept the decision of their constituents come election time.
