Earth Updates-2010

[gscraig]

Hello All,

Being a member of this forum, each you are more than likely aware of the rumored events related to 2012 before and beyond, and the earth changes involved with such rumors. I myself, have personally reached a point to where I've seen enough physical evidence, data, and considered enough "outside of myself" sources to know something is indeed, seems to be coming out of the woods.

Keeping this in mind, I wanted to use this thread as a one stop point of access to help all of us stay up to date and aware of Earth anomalies that occur or are reported around the world. I view this as another "realtime" scenario playing out that could get side tracked or overshadowed by non related posts, that are also not of a realtime urgency.

This thread should consist of abnormal climate change/inclimate weather patterns, earthquakes, volcano activity, animal behavior, sea level changes, human and earth encounters/incidents, etc. However, please keep all the information posted here fact based only.

The goal is to simply have one source for everyone to use for monitoring such events and identify potential escalation.

Thanks in advance,

gscraig

Cold wave in Florida

Iguanas, pythons and other non-native species are freezing to death as temperatures plummet in the Sunshine State. Comatose iguanas have been dropping from the trees and pythons have frozen to death in their tracks in Florida's unusually harsh winter, wildlife officials said today. Parts of the Sunshine State saw their second snowfall of the season this weekend, with the extended cold spells killing off a host of tropical intruders, including iguanas, Burmese and African pythons and invasive fish. State wildlife officials said more than half of the green iguanas, which are native to South America, could have been killed off. "The iguanas up in the trees just got so cold, they kind of went very, very sluggish, and just fell down," said Jenny Tinnell, a biologist with Florida's Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission. Residents of south Florida, who have discovered the animals on their patios, have tried to warm them back to life. Local newspapers, meanwhile, have been warning homeowners not to let their dogs gnaw on iguana corpses, which may be poisonous. In the Everglades, trackers licensed by the state have discovered the decaying corpses of three African rock pythons, which can reach over 20ft and can kill people. State officials believe up to half of the Burmese pythons have also died, along with large numbers of invasive fish. The python die-off could be helpful to wildlife officials. The alien constrictors, many of them abandoned pets, have been taking over portions of the Everglades, threatening native species. Last month, the Obama administration said it was considering a ban on nine species of giant snake. "The fish and wildlife commission has no problem with nature naturally knocking back those populations," said Tinnell. But the harsh winter is also harming natives such as the manatee, which is an endangered species. Long periods of cold weaken their immune systems. Officials said about 200 manatee carcasses have washed up on shore since the beginning of the year. Dozens of crocodiles have also died. The extreme temperatures also prompted a rescue effort last month for endangered sea turtles. Officials plucked more than 4,000 from chilly waters, bathing them in warm salt water to revive them.

Was in yellowstone snowmobiling first week in febuary. Quakes being reported are due to tetonic plate movements and are NOT due to magma building up. My one friends there said he felt like his dog was on the floor laying against the bed frame scratching himself shaking the bed. Then he realized that it wasn't the dog. I'll keep an eye out here in the great lakes area for Team Avalaon!

I don't know if anyone lives on the northeast coast of the US, but I grew up in NJ and am now living in MA, and my mom called me the other day and told me they had an earthquake. Sure enough there was a 2.2 last week near ramapo county NJ. Never experienced any form of earthquake in my 22 years and we are definitely not in an area that has them very frequently.

I'm curious how we should go about quake reporting, due to the mini quakes that occur often. Perhaps we post those of at least 6.0 magnitude, and those in areas that generally or historically do not have them??

I have been thinking about this also - I like the report 6.0 and above for now. When someone has the time to post a list of places with very little EQ activity - those locations can be added to the post and reported on.

Undersea Volcano Erupts, May Form New Island
National Geographic

Erupting from an undersea volcano some 745 miles south of Tokyo, smoke and ash rise roughly 30 stories into the air in this image captured by a Japan Coast Guard helicopter on February 3, 2010.

The helicopter's mother ship, Yashima, was on a routine patrol when the ***utoku-Okanoba volcano exploded. There had been no warning that an eruption was imminent, according to Keiji Doi, senior coordinator for seismic information at the Japan Meteorological Agency.

"Coast Guard vessels and aircraft are now collecting data in the area," Doi said, adding that other ships have been warned to keep their distance. "It is very dangerous to approach the area as it is impossible to predict further eruptions."

Couple of nice photos on the story link.

Should we also be watching a difference in behavior of animals?

A woman who had watched the whales perform before the incident said the trainers were having difficulties getting the whales to perform.

"They weren't following the instructions," Lori Miller said on "Larry King Live." "And the senior trainer actually came out onto the stage to let the crowd know ... that the whales decided they were having more fun splashing each other than splashing the crowd."...


Guest David Dalton told CNN affiliate WFTV, "All of a sudden, out of nowhere, two of the bigger whales just kind of flipped out, going as fast as they could in the water."

Big news day for earth changes :wink2: This time it is drought:

Josefa Garcia Rojas walks through the eerily barren streets of Potosi, a small Venezuelan city where she lived most of her 84 years, amid the skeletons of trees and groups of curious onlookers. This is the first time she's stepped foot here since she and a thousand other residents were forced to flee their homes to make way for a hydroelectric dam being built to block the water of a river that ran through town. It's been 26 years since then, but due to an unprecedented drought in the region, Petosi has reemerged from the murky depths. While it may bring some nostalgic comfort to Josefa and others to see the town's old church once again--there's the creeping sense that all is not well.

Should we also be watching a difference in behavior of animals?
Yes, animals have a strong sixth sense and it is widely known that they can anticipate danger and disaster, so if you see a horde of animals running away from what appears to be nothing, you should probably take the cue. Humans also have that sixth sense but unfortunately we're conditioned from a very young age to suppress those abilities.

A very powerful 7.3 earthquake has struck Japan.

A tsunami warning was in effect for Japan after the massive earthquake that struck in the early morning hours of Saturday February 27 2010 local time.

The US Geological Survey, who monitor earthquakes world wide said the quake read an initial reading of 7.3 on the Richter scale.

The earth is definitely changing. I've lived in the same town in Florida for almost my entire life, and we go back many generations here. I've confirmed what I'm about to say with not only my immediate family, but a member of my family who has been living here for over 60 years...


There are types of clouds in the sky that have never been there before. This also includes the phenomena known as chemtrails.

The cold weather we just had, and are still having as I type this, is unlike any other cold weather we've ever had before.

The sun rises and sets in the same spots it always has, but something about the times and places of full sunlight around our homes has changed, causing there to be new places in the yards where plants have to be moved to or from due to direct sunlight. These are plants and natural landscaping that have been there for over 60 years, and never had any problems! These observations pre-date the sustained freezes we've had this winter, too, so that's not the reason.

The leaves on the trees have been turning red and orange and yellow, for at least 3 years now I've been noticing. These are cypress trees, pine trees, oak trees... trees that either lost their leaves over winter, or they stayed green. But now we are getting fall colors in central Florida?

The time of year that the leaves are changing to fall colors is during our winter... like, right now, in late February, the leaves are still changing and getting more and more red. I'm talking about in a riverside park that I grew up playing in, and have lived down the street from for most of my life. I intimately know this place.

I'm sure there are many more, but I just can't think of all of them right now.


Basically, things are changing, at least from this geographic perspective.

Basically, things are changing, at least from this geographic perspective.

I confirm everything you say because I live in central Florida and have most my life. Few months ago I adjusted my Sky Cleaner II (powerful orgone weather device) to keep chem trails severely down to very little or none at all here. I can't say how I do all of this but will say that it does work.

There are other ways to adjust yourself for any changes in life. How, why, when, where you do such adjusting is up to you. If you like, realize that your more special than you may realize and that this reality, your reality is only your own reflection (your being) of what your whole experience is.

Panic, hate, anger, fear and other low frequency only allows more control/manipulation over you and your life, which is control by those few who believe they control you. Such as what my brief video explains here...

For the first time in more than 60 years, the United States has had a month without a single tornado.

During February the US would expect to see an average of 22 tornadoes hitting the ground. Despite 2010 being an El Nino year, which raises the risk of tornadoes forming, none were seen.

Tornadoes form in the US when cold air over the northwest collides with warm tropical air coming in from the southeast and Gulf of Mexico.

Normally the two air masses run into each other over the Great Plains of the Midwest, which provides the perfect environment for the monster storms to amass, but this year the jet stream has buckled unusually south over Texas and the southern states, bringing with it the cold air.

With the jet stream blocking the warm air pushing north, the residents of the Great Plains have had a quiet month.

Tornadoes are one of weather's most violent occurrence and can see wind speeds in excess of 300mph. Rotating columns of air which form in thunderstorms, it is only when these funnels hit the ground that they are called tornadoes.

The Fujita scale, which measures tornadoes, does not gauge the storm on wind speed but on damage done.

This could mean a less violent storm hitting a residential area being graded the highest F5 tornado, while a monster storm over an unpopulated area could be graded the lowest, F1.

L'AIGUILLON-SUR-MER, France (AP) -- The moon was full, the wind roared, the tide was high and people died by the dozens.

After a wall of ocean water engulfed picturesque towns along France's Atlantic coast, residents, officials and experts are all asking why.

Was it due to climate change? A freak storm fueled by hurricane-force winds? The result of human greed over desirable land or bungling actions by government officials?

All of the above.

Many observers point to the thousands of miles (kilometers) of sea walls in France, many too low, in severe disrepair or reportedly dating from the era of Napoleon. They also note the new houses cropping up behind them, tantalizingly close to the country's poorly protected but much beloved shoreline.

Environmental groups say the storm should be a wake-up call about the danger of weak sea defenses, for scientists are warning that climate change will bring even fiercer storms and rising seas in the years ahead.

At least 52 people were killed when the storm named Xynthia swept through France's southwestern coastal communities between 4 a.m. and 5 a.m. Sunday, surprising victims in their sleep.

Hello All,

When I get the opportunity to do so, I will start trying to get a feel for how often events are occuring between one another, in which parts of the world, the level of extreme and categorize the type of event in terms of quake, oceanic, storms, mudslides, animal activity, etc.

At this point there does seem to be anescalation of "abnormal" activity globally, in a rather small window of time. No real sign of increase in extremes, aside from quake activity at this point.

Funny you mention that, actually, since I just spotted my first hummingbird of the year a couple of days ago... it is ridiculously early in the year to be seeing hummingbirds around here! I don't normally see them until, obviously, the flowers are blooming and filled with that sweet sweet nectar.

[Church]

OH YEAH!! I forgot to mention this in my post on page 1...

Beginning around 2 years ago it suddenly began "raining" honey all throughout the neighborhood that I live in, which is in the remnants of an old growth oak forest. Most of the trees around here are several hundred years old, go up and over the streets, cover people's entire properties, that sort of thing.

Well, I'd say about 2 years ago was when it began... I started seeing sticky spots of something on my car, and on the windshield. I thought it was sap at first, because I always parked in the same spot under the same tree, and I just figured that it was a dying tree, no big deal. But then, it just kept on coming. After a week or so of noticing the sticky drops, I then noticed an active bee colony up in the tree. I put two and two together, decided to wipe my finger in a freshly fallen droplet of the stuff off the hood of my car, and lo and behold, it was the sweetest most delicious honey I've ever tasted!

Well, I thought it was just that tree. I quickly discovered that at least 6 of my neighbors, from further down the street, were getting honey on their cars and property too. Keep in mind that was 2 years ago. I now live in another house in the same neighborhood (about 2 miles away) and there are trees dripping honey on us here too.

My thoughts are: Either all the old growth trees are dying around here, which makes an inviting home for colonies of bees... or, on the flip side of things, it has nothing to do with the health of the trees, and the bees are just doing extremely well, proliferating all over the place, far outside of the microcosm of my neighborhood. All I know is, as long as there are bees and honey, nature isn't ready to implode just yet.

There will be an investigation of the incident in The mediterranean sea...regarding the giant rogue waves..

[Christo888]

OH YEAH!! I forgot to mention this in my post on page 1...

Beginning around 2 years ago it suddenly began "raining" honey all throughout the neighborhood that I live in, which is in the remnants of an old growth oak forest. Most of the trees around here are several hundred years old, go up and over the streets, cover people's entire properties, that sort of thing.

Well, I'd say about 2 years ago was when it began... I started seeing sticky spots of something on my car, and on the windshield. I thought it was sap at first, because I always parked in the same spot under the same tree, and I just figured that it was a dying tree, no big deal. But then, it just kept on coming. After a week or so of noticing the sticky drops, I then noticed an active bee colony up in the tree. I put two and two together, decided to wipe my finger in a freshly fallen droplet of the stuff off the hood of my car, and lo and behold, it was the sweetest most delicious honey I've ever tasted!

Well, I thought it was just that tree. I quickly discovered that at least 6 of my neighbors, from further down the street, were getting honey on their cars and property too. Keep in mind that was 2 years ago. I now live in another house in the same neighborhood (about 2 miles away) and there are trees dripping honey on us here too.

My thoughts are: Either all the old growth trees are dying around here, which makes an inviting home for colonies of bees... or, on the flip side of things, it has nothing to do with the health of the trees, and the bees are just doing extremely well, proliferating all over the place, far outside of the microcosm of my neighborhood. All I know is, as long as there are bees and honey, nature isn't ready to implode just yet.

Your Honey story is intriguing!

I have noticed recently several articles of phenomenon of 'things' falling from the sky. Maybe Honey is being made in the atmosphere much the same way bees 'buzz' in the hive while making there pollinated syrup; honey.

Afterall Honey is converted pollen, a little bee spit and the right buzz 'tone.':lol3:

So, maybe the difference in energy fields is creating anew and maybe the Honey could be dropping like raindrops. Lots of pollen floating in the air then mixes with dew, salt mist, or raindrops and then a 'tone' (magic wand) to convert (cymatics) and wahlah Air Honey!!!!!! :lmfao:

Looks like even bees are using Magic Wands.:lol3:

A quick comment on the bees. There are two revelations related to them....

1) Albert Einstein once warned humankind of two approaching apocalypses: one was nuclear annihilation and the other involved bees. He said:"If the bee disappeared off the surface of the globe then man would only have four years of life left
*The bees started dissappearing back in 2007

Found this article regarding Revelations 6:6

2) Revelation 6:6- Then I heard what sounded like a voice among the four living creatures, saying, "A quart of wheat for a day's wages, and three quarts of barley for a day's wages, and do not damage the oil and the wine!"
Although the Bible plainly speaks of great famine in the last days, the prophetic words of Revelation 6:6 states that the olive and grape harvest will not be damaged.

In general, breeders have assumed that grapes were either completely self- fertilizing or were cross-pollinated by wind, so that in either case insects were considered of no value. The grape harvest will not be affected by the missing bee population. Bees and other insects play a minor role in olive pollination; wind moves most of the pollen from tree to tree. Most olive varieties are self-fertile, but increased production often results from cross pollination. And neither will the olive harvest be affected by CCD.

Grape and olive oil production will only be minimally impacted by Colony Collapse Disorder while much of the fruit, vegetable and nut production will be severely reduced resulting in famine

The 6.4 magnitude earthquake that hit Taiwan late on Wednesday (morning of Thursday local time) left at least 64 injured, caused shortages of electricity, briefly
affected the stock market and caused fires in south of the island. Authorities said the victims had minor injuries after the quake, which struck the country at 8:18 am (21:18 GMT on). Some were hit by trees, pieces of walls and objects that fell with the tremor.

Found this on my travels...

Seems to mirror what other sources are saying!!!

After the shock that the general opinion have suffered this weekend with the so powerful earthquake, and subsequent tsunami, with 8.8 intensity in the Richter scale occured in North Chile, it is clear that we are no longer living in normal times, and that my claim that we are in a specially critical seismic period was correct.

Even the most scepticals, that use to be also the ones that reject strongly the idea of periods of general collapse, perhaps because they relate them with the concept of Final Judgement, millenarism or Appocaliptic prophecies, are now reflecting that these two first months of 2010 are completly atypical in terms of a huge abnormal global seismic activity.

http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/blogs/abraham/detail?entry_id=58151


We are living in the era of the Megaquakes, that is, earthquakes which intensity is overcoming the range of 7.5 richter and with trend to increase every time a new event happens, Now the question that is arriving to my inbox is when and how this is going to reach climax?

Now if you check that the world is having since the millenium started so strong earthquakes like the Sumatra Dec 2004, although not necessarily in increasing progression with respect to their intensity, as many are now claiming.

On 2007, time in which no body was paying attention seriously to this situation as Now it happens almost everywere, I predicted successfully like the one of Guatemala, border between Equator and Peru, Indonesia, Tonga, & Martinica. That same year I released on March my very first prediction of the big Earthquake of California comming soon.

We watched through the media the terrible effect of the two of China en 2008, Haiti 2010, Kashmir (Pakistan) 2005, Nothern Sumatra 2005, Kythera - Greece 2006, Taiwan 2006, Peru coast 2007( that I predicted), Solomon Islands 2007( also predicted by me) , Moluca sea 2007, 2 in the Sea of Okhotsk 2008, Tonga, Papua, Japan, New Zealand and Kuril Islands in 2009, as well as the two of Eureka California on January 2010, the terrible of Haiti and now this even more intense of Chile.

It is clear that in general we are in a major peak of seismic activity that curiously have not affected yet the principal geologic fault in the world that is located in California. Pay attention to the fact that many of these events have occured in the Pacific basin, so it looks that almost the only place around that ocean in which there is still pending to occur something like that is precisely in North American Pacific coast.

So if you dont believe to much in predictions of psychics I think you possibly need to pay attention to those statistics to evaluate the potential risk that we are talking about.

In my personal opinion this represents at least a 50% chance to have a devastating earthquake there in the near future, and that is extremly high. Take in account that in Business there is well known Law of investment that says that no body for instance do a business that has 0.5 probability of to go to bankrupcy.

Let me conclude, for the ones of you that actually believe in predictions, that my own perception is that we are going to experience at least two major earthquakes in the Pacific coast before this 2010 ends, and I would not be surprised if at least one of these two arrives when we still be on the Piscis sign or at least on this same semester.

The two events I am refering to are the Cascades one, affecting either the American and the Canadian side of the border, leaving Vancouver and Seattle not only harrased but also isolated of the rest of the world, and the big one of California ( that I see especially devasting for the coast between L.A and Sn Francisco). In Between 10 hours to 14 hours later Far East countries will feel literaly that the world is falling over them, thousands of tons of water will shock with tremendous impact the North-east coast of China, Taiwan, Japan, Phillipines, kuril islands and even Sakhalin.

I expect both seismic motions will overcome the 9 richter intensity, and will drive the world to general Communications Collapse that will frost any electronic trade, of course through the web, for at least two weeks in each case. This means that if you are tempted to reply this thread do it now, since laterly perhaps you must wait to much to go ahead.

Thanks for your attention,

"For those who want "just the facts, ma'am," the specific prediction is for a massive quake on the West Coast, centered in Northern Calif. / Southern Oregon within one to two months (which would be no later than April 13, 2010). Based on this prediction, I am updating my own prediction made earlier today (http://poleshift.ning.com/profiles/blogs/possible-timeline-for-marc...), so that I now believe the event that will "kill" the US on March 20, 2010 will be this quake and not a New Madrid quake."

I noticed a lot of activity in Arkansas/Oklahoma on this link. This is no doubt the New Madrid Fault giving way. Many are bracing for a West Coast event, but the New Madrid is believed to rumble before San Andreas and it's surrounding states. This may explain why there was a blitz of New Madrid Coverage on the news roughly a month ago. Looking at the future Maps, almost all of them show a large river forming through the middle of the US from the Great Lakes to the Mississippi. Informative videos below

Read an article by a NASA JPL scientist who calculated that the Chile Quake actually shifted the earths axis by something like 8 cm.

The effect is a shorter earth day, shorter by only 1.24 microseconds, but still... It apparently had a stronger effect on the earths axis than the China quake from 2008 because of its relative position. Not exactly a rapid pole shift, but certainly noteworthy. Can't find the link, but google it and should be able to find it. Will post link when I get home tonight if I can.

That being said, some people don't put much stock in NASA/JPL work (i.e. Richard Hoagland).

does that mean that every subsequent earthquake that chile has had since is adding to this shift in the axis ?
they have had so many large quakes daily and are still doing so
Wondering how much of a shift this will all add up to ??

They say the 2,500 square kilometre iceberg, floating south of Australia, could block an area that produces a quarter of the world's dense and very cold seawater, known as bottom water.

This water drives ocean currents, and scientists say weather patterns could be affected in decades to come.

The incidence of natural disaster has risen dramatically over the past 20 years. To close observers of current events in relation to both history and Bible prophecy, this is no mere coincidence. What muddies the water as soon as Bible prophecy is mentioned in relation to natural disaster is the fact that there is a literal abundance of kooks, screwballs and fanatics out there who instantly seize on the latest catastrophe to declare “the end is nigh.”

Doomsayers have been doing this for years. Far too many get involved in such activity for personal profit. They peddle their scaremongering by taking advantage of vulnerable people and, for a price, promise to show a way that the gullible can escape the wrath of their god, the next disaster, creatures from outer space, the end of the world, the implosion of the universe or some other such wacky idea. They make it doubly hard for the genuine seeker after truth.

The facts are that statistics prove natural disasters have risen startlingly since 1990. In a law-abiding universe, there has to be a reason for this.

During the 40 years preceding the decade of the 1990s, there were 142 classified natural disasters in the United States. During the 10 years of the 1990s, there were 72. The decade that followed from 2000 to 2009 saw some of the worst and most destructive natural disasters in recorded history across the globe. And the most destructive in terms of loss of life and property? Earthquakes by far!

“‘Earthquakes are the deadliest natural hazard of the past 10 years and remain a serious threat for millions of people worldwide as eight out of the ten most populous cities in the world are on earthquake fault lines,’ said Margareta Wahlström, UN special representative of the secretary general for disaster risk reduction. …

“According to the figures released today by cred [the Center for Research on Epidemiology of Disasters] in Geneva, 3,852 disasters killed more than 780,000 people over the past 10 years, affected more than 2 billion others and cost a minimum of us$960 billion. …

“After earthquakes, storms (22%) and extreme temperatures (11%) were the most deadly disasters between 2000 and 2009. … ‘The number of catastrophic events has more than doubled since the 1980-1989 decade,’ [said] Professor Guha-Sapir, director of cred” (United Nations International Strategy for Disaster Reduction Secretariat press release, January 2010).

The current decade has commenced with early indications of that trend continuing. Devastating earthquakes in Haiti and Chile, and record-breaking winter storms in Europe and North America have left many dead and homeless, and town and city infrastructures greatly damaged.

On reflection, clearly 1989 was a watershed year, a threshold from which natural disasters escalated most dramatically compared to past eras in history.

Why such drastic escalation in natural disasters since 1989–earthquakes, tsunamis, destructive storms, floods, fires, mudslides, extremes of temperatures—which take the figures right off the record charts since statistics have been recorded?

Well, there is a reason. But it is only apparent to those who, in unbiased, clear-minded fashion, link the facts on the ground with the history of the past and the reality of inerrant Bible prophecies for the future.

There is a prophecy in your Bible that speaks of the world reaching a time when catastrophic events prophesied by humanity’s Creator which were once delayed in their fulfillment for a great purpose would no longer be held back by the hand of God. These climactic events were predestined to be delayed in their inevitable fulfillment to allow a great purpose to come to fruition. They were delayed to allow for the good news of His coming Kingdom on Earth to “be preached in all the world for a witness to all nations” before earthshaking events would herald His return (Matthew 24:14). After that, those events would be no longer delayed. A point in time would be reached when they would break out suddenly and dramatically to shock the world with their destructive force. That’s the only way God has ever been able to grab the attention of humanity!

Those prophesied catastrophes were to be a dramatic warning sign to humankind of the sudden, direct, imminent intervention in human affairs by the Creator God Himself! This was to be a warning sign especially to those who ought to know better than to live the prevailing life of immoral, godless profligacy that has so taken over their society today.

Most especially that warning applies to the descendants of the people to whom Jesus Christ personally came 2,000 years ago as a personal witness to them of the way humankind was destined by its Creator to live—the people of His very own national human heritage. They remain, though in rapid decline, the most blessed nations on Earth. They are the very descendants of the patriarch Abraham, descendants who rejected Christ’s message and slaughtered Him in a most hideous form of death, rather than accept who He was—the literal Son of God.

It was Jesus Christ Himself, whose death and resurrection many will soon celebrate, who declared that before His return to Earth, “there shall be famines and pestilences and earthquakes in divers places” (Matthew 24:7). He went on to declare that additional signs of the closeness of His return would be that His own true and loyal followers would be persecuted at a time of great religious, moral and social confusion.

Why can we point to the year 1989 as the break point, the watershed, from which there have been 20 years of rapidly accelerating incidences of disaster across this world?

Jesus Christ showed the Apostle John, in vision, a keynote prophecy for our day forecasting that we would reach a time when events He had prophesied for our generation would be no longer delayed. Referring to that prophecy, which is contained in Revelation 10, our editor in chief has declared, “We are in a time of no more delay (verse 6), and I believe that is the major reason why our commission has changed from preaching the gospel around the world to prophesying again”.

We can prove to any mind open to receive it that the prophesied time of no more delay began on Dec. 7, 1989, just 28 days following the breaching of the Berlin Wall. Ever since that time the world has increasingly destabilized—through accelerating natural disasters, political upheavals, wars and rumors of wars, economic and financial disaster and great moral and social disintegration.

This will continue until humankind gets the message. The message that there is a great omnipresent, omniscient Creator and Sustainer of this universe who has created humankind with an incredible human potential to which he remains blinded by a power which has been set since man’s creation on destroying that very same potential!

If you have read this far, then you need to find out just what that potential is and really do something about laying hold on it—fast—before catastrophe overtakes you and you regret not having acted earlier!

This response from the USGS is quite peculiar, and comes across as an attempt to calm the curious or defuse and inquiring public.

For starters, they are trying to tell us that the ability and availability to record more quakes due to advancements and number of stations between 1900-2006, is generating the increase in the number of quakes. However, if we really look at the greatest leap in earth quake activity, the window is between the year 2002-2006 (2008,09,10 not on this graph). Now, we are comparing a 4 year window of recorded activity and technology/number of stations, instead of a 106 year window. Therefore, the number of stations available and technology to record earthquakes becomes a non-factor and makes me think more about USGS integrity.

Here is the link again to the graph http://www.thehorizonproject.com/earthquakes.cfm

Let's look further.....
By looking at the earthquakes from 2002-2006 you will notice the immediate leap into double digits annually for 7-8+ mag quakes. Prior to 2002, we averaged 4 quakes (7-8+ mag) annually. As of 2002, we jumped to a whopping 22 quakes, then in 2003 we jumped to 38 quakes, 2004- 33 quakes, 2005 -36 quakes, and a mild decrease in 2006 to 24 quakes. Now, if you then consider what we know to date, which is the Suns activity became rather quiet in 2003 and the NEAT comet was spotted flying pass the Sun also in 2003…The year we had the highest number of 7-8+ mag quakes.

Basically, USGS is not to be trusted. Good thing they were not posting that response to Avalon inquiries. LOL

"The depletion of oxygen levels in all three oceans is striking," said Gregory Johnson , an oceanographer with the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration in Seattle .

In some spots, such as off the Southern California coast, oxygen levels have dropped roughly 20 percent over the past 25 years. Elsewhere, scientists say, oxygen levels might have declined by one-third over 50 years.

"The real surprise is how this has become the new norm," said Jack Barth , an oceanography professor at Oregon State University . "We are seeing it year after year."

Mmm do we believe in coincidence...??


Deadly quakes are coincidence, scientists say

LONDON – Experts say there is nothing unusual about the latest spate of earthquakes in Haiti, Chile and now Turkey, but their devastating effects illustrate how increased construction up and down the world's fault lines can translate into massive casualties.

And seismologists say that although one powerful quake can conceivably make others slightly more likely elsewhere, the string of quakes is probably just coincidence.

Bob Holdsworth, an expert in tectonics at Durham University, said Monday that "I can definitely tell you that the world is not coming to an end."

Found this in an article on the Taiwan quake.


One of the most quake-prone countries in the world, Japan has been getting jittery, especially since several ultra-rare deep-sea oarfish have washed ashore.
The huge dragon-like fish, believed to be the genesis of sea monster legends, are a traditional earthquake omen. They normally remain in the dark depths below 600 feet where they can grow to be 50 feet long. Japanese folklore has long held that whenever a giant oarfish shows up in a fishing net, a major tremor is nigh.

In recent weeks, more than two dozen of the mysterious giant oarfish have washed ashore or been found dead in fishing nets off Japan's northern coast.

Experts are baffled. "I don't know why so many were found almost simultaneously," an aquarium official told the Japanese newspaper Yomiuri Shimbun.

Snow... in Spain ...

Mmmmm I suppose its normal in March!!! :naughty:

Traffic was affected on Monday in Barcelona (northeastern Spain) by an intense blizzar that

caused the closure of the AP-7 at the level of La Junquera, on the border

between Spain and France.

Barcelona recorded during the early afternoon one of the most heavy snowfalls

since 1962, undermining the city’s public transport network, particularly buses.

As the level of snowfall increased, several buses began stopping in the streets

because they were unable to move due to the conditions and the service was

interrupted as a precaution.

In higher areas of the city, thick layers of snow covered streets and cars.

Some roads had to be closed to traffic as a precaution.

The highest part of the city, located 500 meters above sea level,

where is located the Tibidabo amusement park, was engulfed by snow.

Faced with this extraordinary situation, the Barcelona City Council activated

the municipal emergency plans applying to local conditions with ice and snow.

The City Council distributed several tons of salt in the upper city neighborhoods

and recommended that citizens do not drive around these areas.

Roads AP-7 and N-2 were closed at the level of the border between Spain and France,

in La Junquera, due to heavy snowfall. The traffic between Spain and France was

completely interrupted until "the weather improves," said a spokesman for the Transit
Service (TCS) in the region of Catalonia (northeast).

Of the 65 roads affected by snow in Catalonia, seven are closed, and on route 51,

the use of chains is required, said the SCT.

The violent storm of snow also affected the train service, which was interrumpred between the the
cities of Manresa and Cervera, informed the rail company Renfe.

Here is another one and It is likely related to Your post above Viking...

Symptoms of snow mold become evident as snow melts, showing distinct dead patches of grass in the spring. Patches are usually circular in shape and can measure from 2 inches to 2 feet in diameter. Under optimal conditions, the patches may coalesce to be much larger. The leaves in these areas appear water soaked, followed by a bleached appearance. The affected grass blades appear matted together and are often covered by a whitish-gray moldy growth, appearing like cobwebs. Pink snow mold may have a salmon-pink mold visible, bordering the patch. These fungal structures are most evident when wet in the early day.

Snow mold is a cold weather disease with gray snow mold requiring snow cover and pink snow mold requiring only cool, moist conditions. Snow mold fungi are always present in lawns, but only become active when conditions are moist and temperatures stay around 0°C. Cool springs, with a long period of snow melt favors disease development. Fungal bodies can be seen with a magnifying glass embedded in plant tissue as match-head size or smaller structures, appearing light brown early in the season and eventually turning darker in color. Disease severity is high when a wet snowfall occurs before the ground is frozen. Frequent light snowfalls followed by snow melt, maintain the cool, wet environment that favors disease development. Factors promoting development of snow mold include, high humidity, temperatures at or just above freezing, persistent wet drizzle or fog, thick thatch layer, alkaline soil (pH above 6.5) and poor drainage.

Now - I've been on this Planet - This Incarnation - For 43 Years and I have NEVER heard of Snow Mold and I live in Canada. While I've seen it over the past few years - Its only been in that time frame - NEVER before...

Pure and Simple - They give Us the latest BS Explanation for what We know is just not right in Nature. Then because They have to give Us a BS answer as It's now so obvious to Many - They then come across with the attitude of "Nothing to see here - Move along - We gave You the Explanation". Yeah just like H1N1 right ?

Snow Mold is Chemtrail Particulate Accumulation - Period - Especially when Its colored.

I was like "F" Me last week when I heard it on the News.

Its getting assinine now. Redesign the Hot Dog - Where are Sidney Crosby's Gloves and Stick - The Prorogue of Canadian Parliament TWICE by the same sitting PM - Hammer in Healthcare Reform no matter what the People want - 9.8 Trillion printed to save Bankers and Elites from Their own bad behaviour - And now Snow Mold.

http://unexplainedmysteriesoftheworld.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/Purple-Snow-300x300.jpg

Russian scientists who have analyzed it believe that the unusual colored snow is the result a massive dust cyclone from Africa entering the upper atmosphere and then mixing with snow clouds over Russia. Or something like that. In any event, the scientists say that the snow is perfectly safe but they do not recommend eating the purple snow. Do people in Russia regularly do that? Perhaps with all of the purple snow some Russians might get confused and think that it is raining ice cream. In any event, this is truly one of the most unusual weather events that we have seen in the world lately. Russian scientists may think that they know what caused the purple snow, but as for us, we still plan to label it as one of the world's great unexplained mysteries.

Two tropical cyclones have formed in the southwest Pacific Ocean.

Tropical storm Tomas has developed to become a cyclone, and is currently positioned northeast of Fiji.

It is expected to intensify to a very powerful storm by the time it reaches Fiji on Monday (GMT).

Suva on the island of Viti Levu could face winds of up to 130mph (209km/h) and heavy seas in the next few days.

Fiji's Disaster Management Authority has activated its local teams to ensure communities are ready and medical centres have been told to prepare.

The other tropical cyclone, Ului, has developed in the eastern parts of the Coral Sea. It is currently packing wind speeds of over 100 mph (161km/h), but these may increase to over 200 mph (322km/h) as it drifts westwards over open waters during the next few days.

Woke up just before the quake with a dream with some low lying buildings down. Also the numbers 25 - 26 were shown. My wife then woke up from the quake at 4 am or so. I then read the George Ure (urban survival) felt really tired just before the quake and has experienced this before just before a quake. He also mentioned that a large CME is due from the sun wednesday....He also stats that this is a pre-cursor to another larger one coming. Hmmmm My dream had the numbers 24 -26, maybe hours???

Hello All, if I may...

I want to briefly share a perspective in regards to this infomation (per the Earth Updates) and the huge amount of information (though somewhat fragmented at times) coming from sources such as NASA, Independent Researchers, the Internet, SOHO, USGS and the Mainstream Media.

I want to express how all of this is an unprecedented high percentage of identical information and cosmic driven. Now, many of us due to our long established comfort levels on our planet, will feel like this "irregular activity" will pass. Some will not take any necessary action until something happens in their own backyard. To each his or her own, but may I suggest that is always better to be safe, not sorry. There are no guarantees that preparing will result in survival, but it allows you to at least be prepared physical and mentally, which will help you respond more effectively with less initial shock. This will also better position you to help others when possible.

This thread was started to help provide for myself and everyone a means of identifying and seeing the "truth in the pudding" as it unfolds. In a nutshell...What can we confirm for ourselves physically, that something is happening. I hope this thread serves that purpose, and thanks to those keeping all of us in the loop with your findings.

Thanks

I received inquiries regarding the quake in Cuba and the sandstorm in Beijing. Please see the original thread post regarding this. The focus of this thread is on uncommon events, and quakes that are 6.0 or higher unless it occurs in a location that is not commonly or historically known for activity.

This will hopefully minimize unintended exaggerations or overreaction to common earth activity. This will hopefully foster a true barometer for measuring and identifying oddities during a most interesting time on our planet.

Now the darkhorse of the above is the increased activity of Yellowstone. It has become a concern, but it is also commonly known for movements (Tectonic, not magma). Including the 16 small quakes in the last week. There has also been reports of people claiming greater shaking than the magnitudes being shared. Darkhorse indeed.

I hope this help with questions related to this inquiry.

The nature of these changes is not known, and the current US administration has blocked US environmental agencies from studying the phenomenon, so the severity of its effect in this country is not under study".

The other part of interest was this; "So far, the only other media outlet that has picked up this story is the Sunday Times of Great Britain, and they have not provided the true perspective, or discussed the scale of the changes that are on their way. For the Times story, click here"

I finally had some time to look further into the earthquakes for any particular patterns and I did find some rather interesting commonalities.

For starters, all of the recent high magnitude quakes are occurring on or close to coastal areas/islands and they are all located on the southern and southwestern part of the globe. Now, if you look at USGS, the majority of the quake activity over the past week or so, are occurring in the Southern and South-Western areas of the globe, aside from the common places known for quake activity (like California and Yellowstone).
I don't know what this means, but one indicator (if you are one that believes there to be an uncommon object in our solar system) may be that either the possible space object is either in that vicinity (south) of our solar system or having an impact on the sun to where it is consequently affecting these areas on Earth.

Now, what I also noticed or found is that in or near almost every quake location, there has also been a report of Whales and Dolphins being stranded on beaches. However, the oddity is that this was occurring before the quakes, not after. Now, this stranding phenomena has been occurring for over a decade from what I have seen so far, but there has been a huge increase in the number of whales and dolphins being stranded. This increase seem to have leaped in 2003 and 2009-2010 to date. I will comprise a list reflecting the actual numbers when I have the time. Governments and Marine personnel do handle and save quite a few, but no one knows to date why this occurs. There has been some theories that it's related to disturbances in the earth's magnetic field, thus having an affect on these mammals navigation abilities.

On the other hand, there is the exception which are reported on sites like this on (http://www.nrdc.org/wildlife/marine/sonar.asp) that has been able to link many (not all) whale and/or dolphin beachings to Navy submarine sonar.

Now here's where it gets interesting for those whom believe that the TPTP are manufacturing these events. If you consider all of these happening on coastal/island areas and the story that came out about a submarine maneuvering away from Haiti before the quake occurred... This may perhaps add to that basket of suspicion that these quakes are being caused by some type of marine weaponry on board submarines??

Aside from your preference or suspicions, thhese are facts I came across and therefore, wanted to shared. It could mean something or mean nothing at all.

2006- 6,432 (31 1st Q)
The above information is interesting, because it shows quite a decrease in the number of quakes in the first quarter since 2006. However, when looking at all of the 1st quarter data, there's clearly an increase in magnitude and the number of higher mag quakes (and obviously where they're occuring is changing)

I have now looked at data going back to 1973 at this point, and the 55 1st quarter quakes (6.0+ mag) for 2010 are the highest we've had since that year (37 years). However, in 1996 there was a total of 50 1st quarter quakes, but there was also a total of 5,739 total earthquakes compared to the total earthquakes of 3,631 for 2010. So basically, we reached 55 1st quarter quakes that were 6.0+ magnitude with 2,108 less activity/quakes than 1996 which triggered 50 quakes.

Essentially, what this means, is that we are not seeing so much of an abnormal amount of quakes or for this time of year, but we seem to be seeing an increase in intensity and different areas of activity all triggering from a smaller number of total quakes. If you look at the previously posted data for 2008. We had 49 6.0+ mag quakes in the first quarter, that was part of a total 7,315 1st quarter earthquakes. Comparing that to 2010, it took 3,684 more quakes in 2008 than in 2010 to generate at least 49 6.0+ mag quakes.

2010- 55 6.0+ magnitude quakes out of a total of 3,631
2008- 49 6.0+ magnitude quakes out of a total of 7,315 (+3,684 compared to 2010)
1996- 50 6.0+ magnitude quakes out of a total of 5,739 (+2,108 compared to 2010)

I myself would prefer more quakes with less intensity, than fewer quakes with higher intensity any day..So, the saga continues…

Hello All,

As Avalon becomes read only effective 4.9.10, this will be my last post/update as of today. If others wish to post occurrences up until 4/9/10, please feel free to do so. Thanks again to Viking for moving this thread over to AV2 for me, as I feel this is important information for all to have access to regardless of who’s driving it.

I will continue to post updates at the Mists of Avalon Forum and on AV2 (if nothing else) once I have received my invite. If I’m invited. To quell additional private inquires, I do not support the invite only concept, therefore, I will not submit my email address for being added to AV2.. I will let it take its course and carry on accordingly. It simply does not register as a priority or privilege for me. Historically, the human species has been divided, suppressed and conquered enough in the name of and by the “privileged” few.

Be safe until we meet again

A relative in San Diego said today's 5.3 in Baja was very strong - seems like the super-swarm just continues on there - hundreds and hundreds...
