"New and stirring things
are belittled because if they are not belittled, the
humiliating question arises,
'Why then are you not taking part in them?' "
- H. G. Wells
You
control the markets,
but who controls your weather...
Funny Valentine
Each action has an equal and opposite
reaction. And each force in nature, imposes and
equal and opposite force. When an energized object
transfers its energy to another object it is left
at rest. That is what this little pendulum of balls is
all about. But in a closed system the energy
eventually runs out do to entropy... This is when the
system stops. In other words, in order for a closed
system to continue function it must receive energy from
an external power source. This is an ARCHAIC! But
it's true even for an individual human body. We die
due to entropy...
Because one body may have an effect on
many other bodies or mass objects, we use a summation of
the all the energy transferred to all other object to
translate the results. This is like hitting a cue
with a pool stick and watching as it hits one ball and
that ball hits another ball and with each hit the next
ball goes slower and slower. Depending on the energy
behind the initial hit by the cue stick, the combination
of frictional, gravity, and forward momentum will cause a
ball to make it into a hole or stop on the table. When
all the energy input into the system is dissipated, the
balls will stop moving. Just as with this pendulum
system or even a gyroscope.
While these relationships can be
approximated in Newtonian mathematical relationships, it
is ONLY an approximation! The use of Newton's
calculus has led our species to the brink of
extinction. Math is but a man made tool, which
attempts to communicate relationships. It's highly
flawed and extremely limited when compared to the insight
and intuition of our own brains. In fact, an idiot's
brain is more perceptive than what we can actually
describe with math on a computer. In my mind calculus is
absolutely braindead when it comes to very complex
system, especially on a computer due to the irritation of
repeated calculations needed to do the calculate a
solution. Floating point rounding errors enter into the
system rendering the results questionable! So don't do
any statistical probabilities on the following thesis.
Use your head.
![](earthquake_files/BREAK-UP.GIF)
Humans need to learn to trust their
gut. So consider the following. And if you
can't understand it, get a Atlas or do some
research on the web and find the picture that I see in my
mind--naturally. I was predicting a year ago that
we were going to have geological results from our wars in
the middle east. So who is controlling your
weather? YOU ARE with your weapons of war and
obsession with excessive energy consumption.
Everything we do has an equal and opposite effect but in
a highly complex dynamic system, this is not able to be
mathematically model. There are too many elements. This
is the basic concept--all energy transfer in the end.
Ashes to ashes. Dust to dust!
This is a
list of the Small Plates on our earth:
-- Juan de Fuca: off the cost of
Southern tip of BC, Canada and Oregon and
Washington State and an increase in Earth Quakes
to this area.
-- Hellenic: Greece and Crete --
Earth Quake in Anthens -- Preceded by war in the
Mountain area just north. I've been waiting for
earth quakes in this plate.
-- Turkey: Black Sea, Turkey --
No. Iraq and Syria -- Wars just northwest
of this fissure
-- Iranian: Iran, Afghanistan --
earth quake area, Pakistan, Palestine... Crazy
war and human behavior. I've been waiting
for the earth quakes.
-- Arabian: Iraq, Syria Jordan
and Israel are on the edge of the plate butting
up against the African plate... Constant
war and crazy terrorist behavior. this seem
to be due to the northern pressure caused by the
African plate moving north...
-- Solomon Islands: Nothing
really happening perhaps due to diffusion of
small populations but yet another small
plate. Perhaps a volcanic eruption of Mana?
-- Fijian: Quiet war wise but
also very low population area, Suva --
Perhaps an eruption of Ambrym
-- Philippine: Pinatubo
Eruption-- Crazy human behavior and war...
More to come. Perhaps more volcanic
activity and even an earth quake in the region
under the ocean which could create some tidal
waves or something... :-) Saipan,
Koro, Butuan, Kolonia, Moen, all being butted by
the Indian--Australian which would appear to be
moving north and causing all these troubles.
-- Caribbean: South Mexico,
Central America, Earth Quake in Columbia
-- Scotia: ??? Movement is
north... so it seem the nothing is going on
unless something starts to sink.
-- Cocos: Western Central
American plate...
-- ASKJA: What is it
doing...

Green Land is a highly active volcanic
area... but that is because it's the top of the pressure
cooker. The earth plates are moving north and have been
for as long as we know. But what use to take millions of
years is accelerating with human technological progress.
Just like other animals we are reacting
to the electromagnetic changes. These wars in the Middle
East are a good example. But there is a
feedback loop involved here too. We put the energy
into the system in that region and as a result it's being
transferred. Not only is it transferring into the earth,
it is also transferring to the humans in terms of
electromagnetic radiation. We know that this type of
subtle energy can interfere with human biology and
thinking. The US government has even studied it as a
potential weapon. Looking for signs of bizarre and
aggressive human behavior to associate with geological
events.

Check out POLAR and it's

There is a link later down the page...:-)
Microsoft's physical location is just
East of the Juan de Fuca plate on the West side of the
American Plate, sitting in a region surrounded by high
mountains, Olympic and Cascade ranges where there has
been great uplifts of the earth over millenniums.
Where Microsoft is situated, seems to be on the edge of a
fault line extending from Issaquah to Everett --Highway
203 marks this very well. The irrational behavior at
Microsoft is equivalent to that of the middle east and
Baltic regions that preceded the earth quakes in that
area.
Microsoft protagonist are in the Bay Area
in California. They exhibit irrational
and bizarre behavior war like behavior. They too
are on a fault line. Recently there has been a noticed
cooling in temper trend in this area. Is this a return to
logical thinking? Microsoft has also gone flat. Is this
the calm before the shake? Or are they just embarrassed
because they got caught with their pants down... :-)
In terms of electromagnetic properties
associated with such geological events, it should be
noted that the earth energy moves up in areas where the
earth pushes up and down where the faults are producing
different kinds of electomagnetic energy that agitates
humans or depresses them. It also causes changes in
plant life. Last fall their were numerous plants
and trees blooming in the fall in my region (Microsoft's
area) that usually only bloom in the spring. This
Spring the tulips and strawberries did bloom until very
late. This was not caused by the weather. It
could occur this fall also... With the wet summer, that
wouldn't make sense either. We should have a nice Indian
summer or late summer.
The tornadoes are also good signs of
geological events. As the earth energy moves upward it
effects the ionosphere which ripples like the water on a
lake. This wave activity of the ionosphere has a
major impact on the jet stream and is more
responsible for our weather than we might think.
The are doing a lot of research on this right now.
As the earth emits energy, our ionosphere produces
waves. Every time we explode a weapon on earth it
effects our ionosphere causing more waves. It's
like tossing a pebble into a glassy lake. The
eruptions of Pinatubo and the violence in the Philippine
plate region my be indicative of more activity to come.
Southern California and Mexico seem
doomed. I don't believe the geophysicists are telling us
everything. Like all scientist they have certain
non-disclosure agreements. Most will try to give
hints. The warnings to me are very simple.
People--especially those that aren't the smartest--begin
to act irrational. It's like you can hear the high
pitched noise in your mind even though it's not
perceptible in your ears. I can hear it. I was
living in Sprague River Oregon with no TV or radio
communications when Mount St. Helens blew. I could
hear it as a very piercing pitch in my ears. I'm
getting these noises from time to time now....
An Introduction to Atmospheric Electrodynamics![](earthquake_files/sparkbullet.gif)

![](earthquake_files/sparkbullet.gif)
Look at the electromagnetic images they are now taking of
the sun. You can see the currents. Now think
about this. If we were out in space far enough to
take a picture of his of earth, what would we
see? Well, that is something I think NASA is
keeping from us--POLAR.
I believe that my telekinetic and psychic abilities are
perhaps more sensitive than their equipment, but they
suspect what I know for certain.:-)
THE SUN

THE SOHO SATELLITE![](earthquake_files/sparkbullet.gif)
Some irritional research
about business, the sun and satellites.
I was studying this in the early 80s in
Northern California and Southern Oregon which is a highly
volcanic area. I was working with a British geophysicist
who was using high altitude stereoscopic photos to find
potential hot spot or fissures around these volcanoes.
There are 7 vortices in that area and they can effect
radio communication with aircraft. The stable ones
are usually marked on flight maps. What we are
seeing now is moving vortices and aircraft dropping off
radar and loosing communications without warning.
These vortices may also be effecting our high speed
electronics which are much more sensitive to
electromagnetic. We use negative ion generator and
climate control in computer rooms because of this.
Polar UVI Images from July 24, 1996
A travelling convection vortrex event on July 24,
1996
This is what we are really taking about!
What I did that was unusual was interview
people in the areas, using them as a meter to measure
electromagnetic around the mountains. He was amazed that
without the photos, the locals knew were the areas were.
Humans can feel the energy being emitted by the earth. I
and many other in the counter culture were doing this
kind of eccentric research back in the 70s and 80s. Mount
Shasta was so powerful that I even named my daughter
Shasta. :-) On the south side of the mountain you could
feel a marked difference. On the north side the
drain was so intense that I actually fell asleep in the
car and my partner had to stop to take a rest too.
I never fall asleep in a car. You have to go on
logging and other dirt roads to find places like
this. I lived in Amboy Washington in the early 70s and
did a lot of similar research on Mt. St. Helens. I
did studied Mt. Mazama that is where Crater Lake is in
Oregon. I use both my own sensitivity to
electromagnetic, high pitched sounds and visual
observations of plant life to assess these field
effects. I learned that electromagnetic effects the
way a plant metabolizes elements and
photosynthesis. In effect, electromagnetic
refraction effect sun light and photosynthesis just as
the ionosphere refracts and fliters UV for humans.
Instability in the Ionosphere
--and significant effects on communication
systems that use radiowaves
I started studying this in
the early 70s in Northern California, Southern Oregon and
Washington which are a highly volcanic areas. I was
working with a British geophysist who was using high
altitude steroscopic photos to find potental hot spot or
fissures around these volcanos. What I did that was
unusual was interview people in the areas, using them as
a meter to measure electromagnetics around the moutains.
He was amazed that without the photos, the locals knew
were the areas were. Humans can feel the energy being
emited by the earth.
After the Berlin wall came down, many of
us got to know some Russian and Chinese scientist.
The Russians were frustrated with American
Scientist. When I was discussion what we were doing
in the counter culture here in America, one
scientist because extremely excited. He began
showing me how they were mapping vortices in
Russia. They Russian also had a very well developed
paranormal science and depend on humans sensitive also.
The Russians also associated UFO
sightings with the vortices and said that what
communications they had with aliens were through
psychics/telepathy. It was weird to talk about
their frustration over communication with aliens. I
was laughing because it boils down to the context
sensitivity of all combinations between intelligent
beings. We don't really know what a dog thinks and
the aliens treat us like dogs. What the Russians did say
is that because of our magnetic core and the magnetic
property, we provided other species with jump points to
move through the galaxy.
I'm sure this is where the concept of
worm hole came from that we see in movies. The Runnians
were mapping all this stuff out. I saw the maps. I did
similar ones on the areas I studied. They claimed to have
contact with two different species of aliens. I could
very easily call the Angels and Devils because one group
was protective of humans and the other wanted our planet
because of this worm hole effect. In the counter culture,
there was an enity that people attempted to photo. I can
only call it an electromagnetic intelligence. You can
only detect it by the sound and light refraction it
creates.

artist, especially those of us using electronic devices,
they usually talk about what many of us call the ghost in
our machines. :-)
I really believe the whole concept of a
ghost has something to do with this. What we see or
think we see is due to our brains attempting to take
something outside of our normal existence and interpret
it into something tangible that we can understand. I've
never seen a ghost, had an illusion or seen an
alien. But I am very aware that my computer does
sometimes behave very badly and with too much
intelligence to be coincidence. I call these entities
Angels because they make the music of the spheres. It's a
metaphor.
I really believe that the reason the
government started harassing me is because I know about
things that they are researching in secret and want to
keep from the public. I was writing e-mail to Bill Gates
about my research in 1991 in an attempt to get him
interested in backing this research. I found my way into
mainstream media several times. I have my physically
painful handicap use in an attempt to manipulate
me. When these government secrets place our species
and planet at risk for a catyclisum here on earth
if we don't start doing something really soon, you just
have to put up with the pain and learn to deal with this.
They have only been studying this in the US for about 5
years. When I first started writing about this I was
labeled delussional! Now we are photographing this
phanonama from space.
Long-period transient events
This is
all about something very simple....
Positive repel positive charges.
Negative repel negative charges... :-)
And Opposite Charges Attract.
This can be demonstrated with magnets, my
favorite toy as a child. As a child, I would sit outside
the Kitchen door next to the steps. There was a
flower bed along the side of the house between the drive
way and the house. The steps were smooth concrete
and cool. I would dig in the dirt and then take my
magnets and move them around until they picked up the
iron in the dirt and then scrape the iron off into a pile
on the step. I did this until I made a pile of
iron. Just think about it. I was mining iron at age
3. What I did with the iron was attempt to make piles of
it and then move it around to make pictures--pulling the
iron fragments around and making little trails. My
parents were always fascinated by the weird stuff I did.:
-) I can remember the way the iron tasted and smelled
because I tasted everything.... We had some river rock in
our yard too. Some of it was flint rock--poor
quality. I learned by accident that I could hit rocks
together and make them spark. Then I learned which one
sparked and would hut for flint from time to time.
I'm very grateful to my parents for not being neurotic
and prohibiting my digging activities.:-) I'm still
digging in the dirt. I just can't find solid bottom...
Ten-year-old Greg Smith is

Already sold to the government!![](earthquake_files/sparkbullet.gif)
And Microsoft is claiming that Gates who was a
Senate Page hasn't sold us all out to the NAS?
Nuclear explosions under ground or above
ground can create harmonic activity under the earth. Our
core is more or less liquid molten rock, perhaps
with a solid center. The wave from these explosion
can travel through the earth and build up harmonics
sufficient to speed up what we have called the long
geological clock. What might have taken thousands
of years could actually take only a few years to
create. Pakistan is right on a fissure and they are
exploding nuclear bombs underground. The US just
exploded and dissipated how much energy in Serbia
and Iraq? This is basic physics. The energy
had to go somewhere? Well it is. Look at your
weather folks. :-)
I've been waiting for the earth
quakes. The place they are most likely to hit are
around the fissures of small platelets. We had one
in Columbia, Turkey, and now Greece. Japan,
California, Washington, Alaska, the South China and
Philippine Seas and Indonesia areas and other places in
the Middle East are good candidates.
The earth's crust is like the scull of
your head. If you hit the bones on the head, they may not
break but what happens to the brain? Well, it sure
doesn't functions very well afterwards. We
call this a concussion and the pain can last for years. A
blow to the front of the head can cause a major
concussion to the back of the brain. So it's not
were you are hit that is always the place that
experiences the consequences of the actions. We drop all
these bombs in the Middle East and Balkans and our
weather goes crazy and the earth starts shaking. It's a
domino effect.
It only takes a fraction of an inch to
produce an earthquake of major proportions. And
there are the weather effects that are caused buy the
ripples we are creating in the ionosphere. We are
creating such huge waves that it's actually be knocking
some of our satellites out of orbits when they get hit
with the crest of one of these babies. It's kind of
funny when you think about how the US military who
depends on these satellites are actually
responsible for knocking them out because of their earth
actions. And while they are at it they are messing
up our weather too, creating massive damage to
businesses. The shear unpredictability of such cause and
effect relationship is a joke.

We are giving our earth massive
concussions with all the discharging of weapons.
HOW MANY TONS of explosives have the US dropped on
Iraq and the Balkans. We have dissipated more energy into
the earth and atmosphere since the cold world than we
ever did during all the previous wars in history. How
many tons of explosives have the Pakistani and Indians
exploded. What is the Kinetic energy--both
mechanical and electromagnetic--associated with these
explosions and were is it going?
Every time I see one of these politician
or people from the Pentagon get up and do their news
conference on how nice and neat our bombings are I just
shake my head. We really
need some people in DC that are not just generals and
lawyers! This is getting ridiculous...
People are worried about Y2K and the whole science
discipline are shaking their heads... This is so much
worse than they even think. If we don't stop all these
bombings and make peace, there may not be anything to
fight about any more. For get the computers... Our
whole biosphere is about to disappear. A nuclear war in
the Middle East or that general fault region would shake
the whole earth.
![](earthquake_files/bullet_0.GIF)
![](earthquake_files/bullet_0.GIF) ![](earthquake_files/Bullet_s.gif)
And what is the effect on our ionosphere
from the release of all these charged particles and the
heat? Some of this can be calculated but I haven't seen
anyone at Los Alamos or Lawrence of Livermore releasing
anything like this. But there is a project they are
working on.
It's called SOFIA. And I do believe this is
a first step into trying to figure all of this stuff out.
![](earthquake_files/Bullet_s.gif)
WE
are creating Friction, NOT FICTION!
We are creating friction! Friction
creates heat. But how does friction create heat?
Where is Bill Nye the Science Guy when you need him...
Simple. This is a show that should be shown in the Senate
and White House. Simple. The kids know more than
our national learders!
You know a meteor would be pretty
cataclysmic but we are doing a really good job on
ourselves in terms of speeding up our geological clock.
It has to go somewhere. Well, if those folks in
California pay attention they will feel their earth shake
beneath them a lot. Add to this the energy being
dissipated by our cities and you have more than just the
green house effect. If someone asked me where to go to be
safe I would laugh at them. There is no safe place
because we can't really predict the causations or where
to expect their impacts will land. We just know
there will be an equal and opposite effect. Like with the
Tacoma bridge, the harmonics can interact,
resulting in a much greater force than expected.
How long does it take to have a wave
propagate through molten lava under the earth. We
know this is happening but we really don't know that much
about it yet. Seem to me that it would move
comparatively slow due to the density. Just as
longer sound waves travel greater distances, so also do
longer material waves. Wave propagation as a factor
due to density and it's relative time differential is
intuitive. Look at the way a wave propagates in jello
verse water or oil. I've done this. Shake that jello.
Viscosity is a major factor in wave propagation even in
light waves. This can be measured in terms of
refraction.
There are so many small platelets in this
part of the world that we know the earth's crust must be
thinner there and much more reactive. Pakistan has
a fissure going right through the country. Each
action has an equal and opposite reaction. What is a hit
on the head of Iraq or Serbia can give us a huge head
ache in California and Seattle.
The small platelet called Juan de Fuca is
off the cost of Washington. We are loosing
coastline there. There is a very high probability
that if we continue to drop bombs on the Middle East and
do underground explosions, a major earth quake will
happen here. Fortunately this will most likely be
in the ocean but the waves it may cause can do quite a
lot of damage. I wouldn't want to live in Long Beach or
Ocean Shores...:-)
Earthquakes are first preceded with unrest in the
people. In more primitive or economically strapped
areas it becomes out right violence. But in more
industrialized and civilized areas, it take on the vail
of excessive commercial competitive drive. One need
only look closely at the computer industry and the way
the stock market is skewed to see this--Dow 4,000
to11,000 in five years. NOW THIS IS REALLY FICTION!
We are stressing out the earth with our
weapons and it's opposite reaction is our geological
events that in turn impact our ionosphere with waves that
result in a change in our weather currents and the jet
stream. While it may seem like an unusual
occurrence, it's not. I'm very sure that when the
scientist who made the first nuclear bomb saw the result
it hit them like a ton of bricks. It is all a
matter of unnaturally expressing energy and the way that
energy is transferred. This is a dynamic situation
that is impacting all of our areas of energy in terms of
kinetics!
Attention deficit, hyperactivity may be
overdiagnosed
Get the kids off of Ritalin and pay
attention to them. They are trying to tell you something.
Just what is our Navy doing down in Norfork that has the
region's kids so agitated? Perhaps
it's got something to do with our ships running on Win NT
software and they are reacting to the general stress in
the local communities? ;-)

Description
POLAR is one of four spacecraft in the Global Geospace
Science (GGS) program. These are among the six spacecraft
in the International Solar Terrestrial Physics (ISTP)
program. POLAR measures solar wind entry, ionospheric
output, and the depositions of energy into the neutral
atmosphere at high latitudes. Imaging instruments make
possible the measurement of visible, ultraviolet, and
X-ray spectra of the polar caps. POLAR has on-board
propulsion systems and a design lifetime of three to five
years, with redundant subsystems. POLAR is cylindrical,
approximately 2.8 m in diameter by 1.25 m high (plus 1.25
m for its two despun platforms), with body-mounted solar
cells, weighs 1250 kg and uses 333 W of power. The spin
rate is 10 rpm around an axis approximately normal to the
orbital plane. It has long wire spin-plane antennas,
inertial booms, and spin-plane appendages to support
sensors. POLAR has two despun gimballed instrument
platforms, and booms are deployed along both Z axes. Data
are stored using on-board tape recorders and are relayed
to the Deep Space Network at a high rate (600 kbps
maximum, 250 kbps nominal), although the average
real-time data rate for POLAR is 41.6 kbps. POLAR is
placed in a 22.6-h polar orbit (90 deg inclination), with
perigee and apogee of 11,500 and 57,000 km.

force
force, in physics, a quantity that produces a change in
the size or shape
(see STRENGTH OF MATERIALS) or the MOTION of a body.
Commonly experienced as a push or
pull, force is a vector quantity, having both
magnitude and direction. Four basic types of force are
known in nature. The gravitational
force (see GRAVITATION) and the electromagnetic force
(see ELECTRICITY;
MAGNETISM) both have an infinite range. The strong
nuclear force, or strong
interaction, is a short-range force holding the atomic
nucleus together, and
the weak nuclear force, or weak interaction, is a
short-range force
associated with radioactivity and particle decay. In the
METRIC SYSTEM
forces are measured in such units as the dyne (cgs
system) and the newton
(mks system), which cause accelerations of, respectively,
1 cm/sec2 on a
1-gram mass and 1 m/sec2 on a 1-kg mass. In ENGLISH UNITS
OF MEASUREMENT the POUND (lb) is used. A 1-lb force
equals 444,823 dynes; 1 dyne equals 10-5 newtons.

dynamics
dynamics, branch of mechanics that deals with the MOTION
of objects; it may be further divided into kinematics, the study of motion
without regard to
the forces producing it, and kinetics, the study of the
FORCES that produce
or change motion. The principles of dynamics are used to
solve problems
involving work and energy, and to explain the pressure
and expansion of
gases, the motion of planets, and the behavior of flowing
fluids (gases and
liquids). Special branches of dynamics treat the
particular effects of
forces and motions in fluids (see FLUID MECHANICS); these
include
AERODYNAMICS, the study of gases in motion, and
hydrodynamics, the study of
liquids in motion.
gravitation
gravitation, the attractive FORCE existing between any
two particles of
matter. Because this force acts throughout the universe,
it is often called
universal gravitation. Isaac NEWTON was the first to
recognize that the
force holding any object to the earth is the same as the
force holding the
moon and planets in their orbits. According to Newton's
law of universal
gravitation, the force between any two bodies is directly
proportional to
the product of their MASSES and inversely proportional to
the square of the
distance between them. The constant of proportionality is
known as the
gravitational constant (symbol G) and equals
6.670 *
10-11newton-M2/kg2
in
the mks system of units. The measure of the force of
gravitation on a given
body on earth is the WEIGHT of that body. In the general
theory of
RELATIVITY, gravitation is explained geometrically:
matter in its immediate
neighborhood causes the curvature of the four-dimensional
SPACE-TIME
continuum. See also CELESTIAL MECHANICS.

SYNONYMS: BREAK, CRACK, FRACTURE, RUPTURE, BURST,
SPLIT, SPLINTER, SHATTER, SHIVER, SMASH, CRUSH.
These verbs describe the effect of sudden application of
force. Break, the least specific, usually involves
separation of a rigid object into parts; sometimes,
however, it is used in the sense of crack, which
specifies adherence of parts. Fracture applies to
breaking or cracking of a rigid body. Rupture refers to
breaking apart or tearing of a soft or pliable substance;
sometimes rupturing (as in the case of a blood vessel)
results from internal force and thus has the basic sense
of burst.Split refers to the breaking of a rigid
substance lengthwise or in the direction of the grain.
Splinter involves splitting into thin and sharp separate
pieces. Shatter pertains to the breaking of a rigid
object into many small, scattered pieces. Shiver
indicates fragmentation by sudden force but especially
suggests fine splinters. Smash stresses force of impact
and complete change of form of a rigid body but is
otherwise not specific. Crush refers to the effect of
great external force, to change of form, or to reduction
into fine particles.
