This is a weblog of observations and reports, confirmed and unconfirmed, of happenings at Yellowstone National Park and other geologically sensitive regions around the world. It looks at earthquakes, global warming, weather anomalies and other earth and other earth changes. The reader is asked to read this with care and discernment as it is gathered from various alternative media sites, newsgroups as well as mainstream sources. Just because major earthquakes are not reported on the nightly news doesn't mean that they aren't happening with increased regularity. - MSW

Updated 12 Jan 2008:
12 Jan 2008 – Ecuador's 'Throat of Fire Volcano' erupted on Thursday forcing about 700 villagers to flee. Meanwhile Mexico's Popocatepetl Volcano is putting on a spectacular show. In more interesting volcano news, scientists have got a glimpse of giant 'Volcanic' system on the Ocean floor.
Zigzagging some 60,000 kilometers across ocean floors, earth’s system of mid-ocean ridges plays a pivotal role in many workings of the planet—from its plate-tectonic movements to heat flow from the interior, and the chemistry of rock, water and air. It was not until the late 1970s that scientists discovered the existence of vast plumbing systems under the ridges, which pull in cold water, superheat it, then spit it back out from seafloor vents—a process that brings up not only hot water, but dissolved substances taken from rocks below. - Colombia University
What this may very well ultimately mean is what I was saying long ago about some of the changes we are seeing in the polar regions. Namely that melting of the ice is more and not less likely based on this new information, caused by underwater heating of the earths surface which effects water temperature in the polar regions. What I was saying back in 2006 (see June 26th Entry this page and many before, keyword to find on this page is 'arctic') is that the melting has far less to do with CO2 emissions, a theory which has been bolstered by the political agenda of certain of our Global elite, but with seismic and perhaps solar activities that are outside of mans ability to control. This kind of discovery should really enter the debate on global warming, but it does not fit with the prearranged conclusion being put forward by our news media and our elite and thus is not covered with any depth in the major news media.
Also of note are some freak tornado's the US has experienced in the month of January, not a time usually associated with these dangerous, killer storms.
Vancouver had one on the 11th.
Tuscaloosa County had one last week as well.
Storms from Illinois to Louisiana are spawning rare January tornados, including one twister that tossed a bus onto the roof of a school full of children.
The bus was sucked into the tornado's funnel in Caledonia, Miss. The huge vehicle was hurled like a toy on top of a high school gymnasium about 2 p.m. when students were still in class. - ABC
There was some notable damage done in these storms, as this story demonstrates.
Strange weather for strange times.
5 Jan 2008 – Well, a friend of mine who regularly visits my site politely asked me how the 'Earth Changes' blog was coming along. He asked me coyly probably knowing I had not updated in almost 18 months. Why did it go away? The reasons are many, but I was getting a lot of criticism from a lot of folks who didn't like it or wanted to keep the kinds of links and views I expounded off the net or at least from wide dissemination. I also had numerous technical issues that seemed to track back to some rather, let us just say 'interesting' places. The result was I decided it was time to pour my energies into other things. That is not to say that issues of Earth Changes has lost its importance. It clearly hasn't, as the recent quakes in Chile, and the around Sumatra have demonstrated.
Also, we should note that the rather extreme solar activity we had seen in the first half of this decade has died down considerably in recent months. Volcanic activity continues unabated and other weather related disasters seem to be growing in frequency. So while the Earth Changes will be covered in this blog, other issues directly related to those changes will also be covered, namely food shortages, environmental degradation, and refugee crisis when those crisis are environment driven. With that said... here goes.

It looks like Solar Cycle 24 is about to begin, at least according to the Solar Influences Data Center in Belgium.
The first solar-cycle-24 sunspot group has further developed
and is now numbered as NOAA active region 981. No flaring activity is
expected in the coming few days. Meanwhile the solar wind has increased
roughly from 300 to 600 km/s, due to a recurrent coronal hole, and has
triggered geomagnetic activity at the K=4 level. These active
geomagnetic conditions are expected to persists till early next week. - SDIC
Given the extreme nature of solar activity over the past couple of years, it could mean that we are in for more Solar Instability.
Meanwhile, There is a major volcanic eruption going on in Chile that caused evacuations. In other volcano news, residents near the famous Indonesian 'Mud Volcano' have been forced to flee it.
"It's not a serious problem," he said, adding that unlike thousands of others who have been forced to evacuate the region in the last 18 months, with dozens of villages and factories roof-deep in mud, "they will not receive any compensation."
Mud volcanoes are fairly common along volatile tectonic belts and in areas rich in oil and natural gas like Indonesia. - IHT
In the Arctic, there is a battle being waged between the Polar Bears and the Oil Conglomerates.
Polar
bears, which have been getting a lot of attention as news stories
appear about a more-rapidly-than-expected melting North Polar ice
cap, could get Endangered Species Act protection shortly, according
to the National Audubon Society.
The possible listing by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service could happen at the same time that the Bush Administration opens more parts of their habitat to oil and gas drilling.- The Tennessean
29 July 2006 – It seems that there is no end to man's destructive activity to the planet on which we live.
“The "Dead Zone" off the Louisiana coast mapped this week is 6,662 square miles — or about the size of Connecticut and Rhode Island combined, Dr. Nancy Rabalais, Chief Scientist for Northern Gulf of Mexico Hypoxia Studies reported on Friday. The low oxygen waters extended from near the Mississippi River to the Louisiana/Texas border”. - AP
This is caused, according to the article from agricultural runoff. Man's shortsightedness is slowly killing our Oceans.
Volcanic Activity seems to be growing every day. Indonesia again seems to be a place of such activity. Now it is Mount Karangetan
More than 3,000 villagers fled to safety Friday after Mt. Karangetan on Northeast Sulawesi's Siau island began belching hot gas and lava. - Jakharta Post
In the Philippines, the threat of forest fires because of the Lava flows is a problem. Mount Mayon Volcano has caused 40,000 villages to flee their homes as the volcano bellows tons of ash and sulfur dioxide, at the rate of over 6000 tons a day.
Well, it seems that I have not been completely off base with some of my conjectures. Scientists have discovered a new type of volcano that may be causing some of the large quakes in the Western Pacific.
A series of mysterious eruptions in the western Pacific could be caused by a new type of volcano, a new study suggests. - MSNBC
The article goes on to say that this phenomenon has been suggested in the past but never 'fully documented'. I suspect that this activity has increased and this is why we are seeing so much volcanic and earthquake activity around the world and in this region particularly. I also suspect that these kinds of volcano's, if located in the proper regions could account for some of the polar icecap melting we have seen if the heated waters circulate into these regions.
Meanwhile, earthquake activity has hardly abated. On Thursday, 27 July a 6.1 quake hit offshore Sumatra. And on the following day another 6.1 hit Taiwan as well as a moderate 4.5 off the Hawaiian Islands.
Finally, there is an interesting story on the Discovery Page on the potential for quakes along the eastern sea board. The source? The New Madrid Fault line
26 June 2006 - Global warming is in my estimation a fraud. It isn't that the earth isn't showing marked signs of warming, it most certainly is. But the cause of that warming has been cleverly misstated by the establishments scientists. That is, those scientists that get their funding from big named foundations that are hooked in with the very wealthy and very powerful men who have an agenda to amalgamate power in the hands of international and global institutions, in short, what is euphemistically called the New World Order. I noticed a story out of Japan that shows scientists have found the truth behind the shrinking icecap glaciers. It is ocean warming not the atmospheric type put forth by the elite's scientists. Yet the story was not covered in the US, indeed it is almost impossible to find if you do not know what you are looking for.
A group of researchers said Thursday that the drastic ice shrinkage in the Arctic Ocean from 1997 to 1998 was triggered by the flow to the area of warm water from the Pacific Ocean, not by atmospheric impact as previously thought. - Kyodo News Service
It is interesting to see that this theory is not new, it is just not blazoned across the headlines in the worlds newspapers as the 'pop science' notions are. If these headlines were, they would make people rethink the solutions that the elite have planned. Here is a paper that should be talked about more but isn't because it isn't Kyoto Treaty 'friendly'.
The earthquakes around the world are increasing as well as volcanic activity. There is just too much to cover here and you can find some of the latest news at Yahoo's Volcano page. There is definitely a lot going on.
What is happening with the slowly dying Lake Victoria in Africa? Why it is drying up is covered in my PESR for the spring (page 33ff). If you want to see a real man-made environmental catastrophe in action it is here. Forget about the global warming hot air being bantered about by our elite. These are the same people that have created a real human tragedy at this massive lake which sits at one end of the Nile.
28 May 2006 – Several notable quakes have been noted in the Baja Californa Region. Heads up to California residents!
The Volcano at Comoros is now spewing lava and residents are fleeing.
27 May 2006 - A powerful quake has hit Russia's far east on the 23rd of May. It has disrupted electricity and water supplies. Another strong quake hit Indonesia also today.
The Volcano in Indonesia is now spewing ash and Lava. It remains a danger. People returned to their villages late last week not may be in danger. In other volcanic activity, Monterrat's volcano threatens the region with Tsunami's. However the news today is most troubling, a 6.2 earthquake in Indonesia has already claimed 2700 lives. The toll is still rising rapidly as of this writing. The quake may bring about a volcanic eruption on Mt. Merapi
Yogyakarta is in the heartland of Indonesia's main island of Java and stands near Mount Merapi, a volcano that has been on top alert for a major eruption this month. A vulcanologist in Yogyakarta said the quake was not caused by the volcano, but Merapi's activity increased after the shock. - Swiss Info
The scary thing is that three more volcano's are also showing signs of eruption.
Floods continue to make headlines as Massachusetts's is still reeling from floods, the worst in 70 years. Thailand is also experiencing sever flooding which has claimed 62 lives.
28 April 2006 - 400 Dolphins have washed up dead in Tanzania. While poisoning has been ruled out the US navy is investigating the possibility that their sonar may have been responsible.
In the United States, experts were investigating the possibility that sonar from U.S. submarines could have been responsible for a similar incident in Marathon, Fla., where 68 deep-water dolphins stranded themselves in March 2005. A U.S. Navy task force patrols the East Africa coast as part of counterterrorism operations. A Navy official was not immediately available for comment, but the service rarely comments on the location of submarines at sea. - AP
In another testament to our dying oceans, starfish off the coast of Vancouver are dying and the Coral in the Carribean are dying.
There has been some more volcanic activity
Indonesia's thundering Mount Merapi, one of the most dangerous volcanos in the Pacific "Ring of Fire" spewed ash and small rocks on Friday and experts fear it could erupt anytime. - Reuters. More can be found here. This will cause a lot of people to have to flee.
Lake Chad is receding, the same is true of Lake Victoria and this has caused fishermen in Uganda to be left 'high and dry'. Drought and global warming are the suspected culprits in these tragedies.
While drought is a serious problem in East Africa, flooding is a serious problem in Eastern Europe.
The overflow of the Danube River and its tributaries in April flooded 144,211 hectares in 17 Romanian counties, with large regions in southern Romania still under water and more than 15,000 people evacuated from their homes, the Agriculture Ministry said in a press statement Friday.- MediaFax
This does seem rather interesting to me that on the same day that Romania legalized Witchcraft, the flooding began in earnest. Romania now is by far the hardest hit in these flooding tragedies. Lesson; don't mess around in with the devils tools.
6 April 2006. A volcano in Tanzania has erupted. It is known locally as the 'Mountain Of God'.
The Quake in Iran may have left the newsrooms as a story, but the victims are still suffering. Kuwait has turned out to be the largest donor. Minor temblors have hit many parts of the globe but these past few days, I have been following stories about flooding. There is a major flood in Central Europe presently that has claimed many lives. Der Spiegel, the excellent German Magazine has an English subsection to its site and covers this here. The BBC has some good pictures as well. A State of Emergency has been declared in Serbia, Hungary, and the Czech Republic. Now you tell me this is not a major story! You can't get too many folks in the US to see it as such. But flooding is occurring in Australia as well,
A quarter of Katherine is already submerged following heavy monsoonal rains that have forced the evacuation of 600 residents. News.au
The US is not immune, the city of Fargo has been flooded by the Red River. San Mateo California has called a state of Emergency for flooding when cracks appeared in a state Highway. Tulare California saw a levee break and flooding threatens but has not damaged some homes.
The Canadian City of Winnipeg is bracing for floods from the same 'red river' threat that Fargo faces.
A more serious threat is the million people at risk in the Former Soviet Republic, now the nation of Georgia.
The situation was particularly bad now because of heavy winter snow. "As soon as the temperature rises the snow will melt. If it rains at the same time then the floods and subsequent landslides would be very serious." The Guaridan
This is certainly a situation that bears watching closely.
Flooding has also hit parts of Uganda. Kampala is paralyzed with flooding from rainfall.
16 March 2006. Other than a few major rumbler's as the 6.8 quake that took place on 13 March in Indonesia the earth has not shown a marked increase in seismic activity. However the weather does seem to be making up for it. Europe has seen a great deal of weather chaos as this article from Gernmay's Spiegel describes (in german). Flooding, heavy snow fall are all part of the scene. Eastern Europe as well has seen torrential rainfall and flooding as this article describes. more here. In the US, tornado's are in the news as some recent twisters have destroyed homes and claimed lives.
It should be no surprise that scientists are now linking smog to arctic warming, I won't comment, here is a link.
Drought
is still a major issue in parts of Africa. Kenya will be affected for
years to come says this BBC
article. AllAfrica (a great
site) has also covered this issue and here
is a great article
originally
published in The Nation (Nairobi). Somalia
is effected by drought as well. This is an issue that the western
periodicals is largely ignoring. But drought is also effecting large
portions of America. Farmers have had to deal with rising energy
prices but now will have to deal with rising water prices as well.
In
all likelihood, water will supplant energy as our most critical
natural resource within the next 15 years. The United Nations has
already predicted that by 2020, water -- and not oil -- will be a
source of conflicts in the world. - Ag
Weekly
But cities like Phoenix are looking at the problem with a broader view realizing that the problem is as much about drought as it is about overall supply, as this article describes. The Coloradoan makes a bold call to end the water addiction. Articles in local publications are plentiful, national coverage has been lacking, to say the least. There is a drought in the western US and it may have been partly to blame for the recent wildfires. So next time you pour some water out of your tap, don't take it for granted that it will always be there at dirt cheap rates.
14 February 2006. There has been a lot of activity in the realm of earth changes but the number and intensity of earthquakes seems to have subsided ever so slightly. The stories these days are coming more from a meteorological perspective. Russia and Ukraine have been caught in a bitterly cold winter that have caused an energy row between the two. Indeed the winter has been so severe that it is estimated the 30% of Russia's crops have been destroyed. The American North East has seen a storm with record snowfall. The Glaciers in the Swiss Alps continues to melt and the beautiful resort is threatened.
Last year, 84 of the 91 glaciers studied got smaller, while the seven remaining ones did not change. These measurements confirm the results of previous studies, which clearly showed most Swiss glaciers shrinking. - Xinhua
If that weren't enough, forecasters are predicting yet another busy hurricane season this year. From an interesting report I quote:
PROBABILITIES FOR AT LEAST ONE MAJOR (CATEGORY 3-4-5) HURRICANE LANDFALL ON EACH OF THE FOLLOWING COASTAL AREAS:
1) Entire U.S. coastline - 81% (average for last century is 52%)
2) U.S. East Coast Including Peninsula Florida - 64% (average for last century is 31%)
3) Gulf Coast from the Florida Panhandle westward to Brownsville - 47% (average for last century is 30%)
4) Above-average major hurricane landfall risk in the Caribbean
***End Quote***
It certainly looks like 2006 is going to be another busy and destructive year. It isn't as if last year was uneventful. Property Insurance claims topped 56 Billion dollars in 2005.
Oil and gas companies are looking to move into the arctic now and one is already working on extracting natural gas from the Arctic. As the Arctic thaws, business opportunities in the region will thrive. So says this Times article. Is this a good idea? The need for energy is real no doubt about it. But what is it going to take for mankind to really begin serious investment in alternative energy?
Finally Michal Mandville's site has some most interesting information on the Earth's Wobble. His calculations show it has all but ceased, but this is not necessarily a good thing. As I am not as familiar with Chandlers wobble and the history of its motion. I will pass you on to two of Michael's links but fair warning to the reader, his religious views are decidedly new age and those views creep into his analysis from time to time.
The other is at his Yahoo group site.
21 January 2006: I apologize for not updating this page. As Many of you know I took a hiatus from writing. I am back at about 80% 'production capacity'.
The past few weeks has seen some interesting if not necessarily newsworthy events. One is the eruption of the Volcano in Alaska, which as of the 18th was still bellowing a plume of smoke. There has also been an eruption of a Volcano in the Sandwich Islands. The event was preceded by some moderate quakes, which of course is not unusual. Baja California was rattled by a 6.7 quake that was fortunately off shore and caused no damage.
There was an event on the 1st of January that was extremely interesting and troubling. A few minuets after midnight there was a global tectonic event that was extremely anomalous. This event then set of moderate quakes around the world. This is very troubling. The Earth has not settled now since the massive quake and tsunami of 2004. Moderate and strong quakes continue to plague the region around Andaman and Nicobar. Sizable quakes have been recorded around the pacific basin and these things are quite troubling to those of us who must dwell between the earth and sky.
One site I visit regularly (which has a decidedly 'New Age' slant) is Michale Mandeville's. He has been tracking these events for a long time and has even been interviewed on the History Channel. He has been following the fluctuations in the Earth's rotation. This phenomenon is called 'Chandlers Wobble'. This wobble, according to Mandeville, is taking on an increasingly erratic form. Warning! This site is exceedingly 'New Age', but very informative on certain scientific issues and is recommended to extremely 'discerning' readers. There may very well be a correlation between recent tectonic events and Chandlers Wobble, however lacking a scientific background, I cannot say for sure.
I look for 2006 to be an important year in the arena of Earth Changes. I also look for some major (as in humongous) changes politically and economically in 2006. Some of what I expect can be found here. As a friendly heads up only to those of you who read this blog I give you a special little tidbit of information that you may find practical and useful. It has nothing to do with Earth Changes.
Bank Of America and Compass Bank managers (probably all other U.S. banks too) have been instructing their employees in the last few weeks on how to respond to customer demands in the event of a collapse of the U.S. economy - specifically telling the employees that only agents from the Department Of Homeland Security will have authority to decide what belongings customers may have from their safe deposit boxes - and that precious metals and other valuables will not be released to U.S. citizens. The bank employees have been strictly prohibited from revealing the banks’ new "guidelines" to anyone. (however, employees have been talking to friends and family)The next time you visit your bank, ask them about it - then ask yourself, why is this information being kept secret from customers and the public - what’s really going on? - Link to story
Finally, the Oklahoma wildfires may be the result of some tectonic changes. How do I come up with that, you might ask? Well there have been numerous reports of natural gas (methane) leaks coming from underground in the region. One newsgroup posted a story that some firefighters were unable to put the fires out because the shovels of dirt put on the fire simply started to burn. This is certainly not indicative of an ordinary fire. It is difficult to argue with eyewitness testimony especially in this world where the US media organs are little more that government propaganda outlets.
14 Dec: A geophysicist at the US Department of Energy predicts the possibility of a 'big one' in California, big as in a 10.0 earthquake. Well, the scientist really was discussing interesting predictive theories that may help to give warning. The article, certainly worth reading, can be found here.
Ethiopian and American scientists have concluded that a new fissure found in Ethiopia could be a new ocean.
Researchers from Britain, France, Italy and the United States have been observing the 37-mile long fissure since it split open in September in the Afar desert and estimate it will take a million years to fully form into an ocean, said Dereje Ayalew, who leads the team of 18 scientists studying the phenomenon. - AP
A
dam burst in Missouri and the situation is described as very
dangerous. Cars
and homes have been washed away. Some believe that this has
happed because of recent micro-quakes that have recently
occurred here.
There has also been some interesting quake
activity lately. Romania,
New
Zealand and Pakistan
have all recently received some jolts over the past couple of days,
not to mention the regular 5.0+ activity that seems to remain in the
region of last years Tsunami.
Finally, the North Pole is migrating. It will be in Russia before you know it.
Magnetic poles have been known to migrate and sometimes even swap places, scientists maintain. However, this unexplained phenomenon is even more amazing this time round, Stoner said because the north pole had remained fairly stable during the previous four centuries.- Earth Times
7 Dec: The Volcano in Vanuatu has erupted. This is one of the worlds most dangerous volcanoes and thousands of residents have been forced to flee more here and here.
There is still a hunt underway for survivors of the massive quake in Central Africa. Interestingly, the Congo is also beset by Volcanoes. Aftershocks still plague the region.
On another note, it seems amazing to me how silly the global warming debate can get. Here is one that says Global warming affects women more than men! These loopy activists now want 'Climate Gender Justice! What else is being blamed on 'Global Warming? Hold on to your noses, it is Cow flatulence! Yes, we find that scientist are actually putting this forward as a theory. It seems every nutjob on the planet thinks they have something to gain by getting on the bandwagon.
For those of you who are worried about the supposed 'bird flu' pandemic. Here is something new to worry about. Scientists say the bird flu drug is useless. In my personal opinion is that this 'pandemic' is overblown. The possibility of some sort of financial scam has occurred to me more than once.
5. Nov. - Today, we are going to go into the 'twilight zone' for a moment. Here is almost intriguing link that you may find interesting. There is a video and an audio interview too at the end of the linked page. This is rather freaky but most of you will at least find this interesting. You be the judge. Sorry to get off the beaten track but I found this too interesting not to pass along.
http://www.arkadysimkin.pl/infocus_eng.html
In other Earth Changes news, the huge floating iceberg in Antarctica has broken apart. Another interesting story can be found here on 'melting mountains' and how climate change is recking havoc on some beautiful landscapes.
As far as melting ice in Greenland is concerned, there seems to be conflicting data on just how much the ice sheet in Greenland is actually shrinking. The European Space Agency has conducted research for over a decade and their conclusions are interesting. Their research shows that the ice sheet is actually growing on the island's interior. More can be found here.
18 Oct. - Over the past couple of weeks there have been numerous reports of strange smells from around the nation and world.
http://www.post-gazette.com/pg/05273/580563.stm

One Catholic site likened what is happening to 'Miasma'. A phenomenon noted during the days of the Black Death (bubonic plague). Whatever is happening, it is happening in Africa as well. Something appears to be happening under the surface of the earth. This is why I believe we are seeing such a rapid change in climate the world over. Ocean currents may be effected by this and this may be why we have seen the Arctic melt at an alarming rate. Look around the world at the rise in volcanic activity. El Salvador, New Guinea and even Oregon have seen increased volcanic and volcanic related activity. Around the world there has been a great deal of geologic instability. What is even more notable, from my point of view, is the silence coming out of the USGS and other agencies around he world. No one is really talking about it. Some have speculated that the reason for these smells is that the earths plates may be moving and that as this happens gases trapped in the earth are released. If the earths plates are moving and if scientists were aware that many more devastating quakes were a certainty and that some may claim hundreds of thousands of lives, how anxious do you think they would be to tell the average Joe? Why has no one (in an official capacity) tried to honestly explain the significant increase in devastating quakes and volcanic activity. The silence is what causes no little concern to me.
12 Oct -There has been just too much activity to cover.
Antipodal Quakes seem to indicate far more instability in the earth that we are being led to believe. Major quakes are happening within hours of each other and have led many to believe that the earth may be getting ready for a polar reversal. ECTV also is saying the same things. Just about everyday we are seeing 5.0 quakes somewhere around the globe. We have seen two major quakes in a very short time span in Peru and Kashmir. Something is happening and obviously the USGS must have been issued some kind of gag order by DHS to not explain what is happening, lest people panic. Notice that Dick Cheney has his underground bunker built. Folks, can laugh if they want but remember this, those of you who know your bibles and those of you who mock us who do, a polar shift is coming according to the bible and everything on God's prophetic timetable is happening right on time, just like the bible said it would.
Meanwhile volcanic activity is growing worldwide. It was a the rumblings of a volcano that caused the mudslide that killed 1400 in Guatamala. Three Volcano's in Alaska are waking up. Guatemala also has seen volcanic eruptions. Yes the activity is growing by the day. Floods in Britain, starvation in Zimbabwe, earthquakes in Kashmir, strange solar activity, what is it going to take to get people to believe what Christ said? I know what it will take for some. Severe Tribulation and brothers and sisters, it is coming to America as well. But for most, they will never see because it will require that they give up their pet sins, their child molestations, sodomies, thefts, torture, lies, greed, hate, adultery, drug abuse, alcoholism, witchcraft and rebellion. Most people will never part with these evils and will thus be destroyed when God finally says...
ENOUGH! I am sick of looking at your evils. Away with you. I never want to see you or hear from you again!
2 Oct. - There has been so much activity over the past two weeks that I would need to write a book! Of interest is an earthquake in Ethiopia that has awakened a long dormant volcano. The quake caused lava and ash to spew from the volcano. Additionally here have was a major 7.5 quake in Peru that left thousands homeless. A volcanic eruption in El Salvador on Oct 1 buried two farmers and authorities have evacuated the area. Of course the region of the Christmas Tsunami has not settled down as a 6.7 quake on the 29th of September demonstrates. Russia has also experienced a major quake this month in the Far East.
Also a cluster of quakes in Idaho has been noted by geologists and were felt by residents. The strongest quake in years hit the Cascades on Sept 30, it measured 4.0. A long and detailed report has been written for those interested in Seattle and Cascade fault scenarios. It can be found here. Folks what is happening in the New Madrid area is also of concern. Scientists are saying that it is a matter of when not if a 'big one' occurs here.
Poppycock! That is my opinion of much of the 'science' used to support the 'pop-notion' of global warming. While I do not dispute that there has been a slight rise in the earth's temperature over the past 30 years, I have pretty much rejected the idea that this is entirely or even primarily a man-made phenomenon. I think there are many other reasons for this. Solar activity and a high degree of geologic activity (magma) under the earths surface may also contribute to changing ocean temperatures thus compounding the problem. For those of you who have not been completely brain washed by the constant drone of propaganda coming from the 'bought and paid for' scientists who are given air time on the major news networks, I will pass in this link to an interesting and informative one-hour round table by some other experts. One was part of the UN panel on climate change. I highly recommend you give it a listen. It can be found here. There are economic and political reasons this agenda is being pushed so hard by our elite, it has very little to do with 'saving the planet'. Raping the planet yes, saving it, I don't think so.
15 Sept: Stan Deyo has issued an earthquake warning for the entire Indian Ocean area. Stan believes that activity in this region could trigger earthquake and volcanic events world wide.
On the subject of Volcano's scientists believe that a bulge in Oregon may be the beginnings of a new volcano. Experts are also warning that a volcano in El Salvador is in the verge of an eruption. Other Vulcan happenings include a decrease in fishing in Alaska from an excess of Ash and other debris from Mount Chiginagak.
Yet in another more interesting development, scientists are declaring that a slow seismic slip is underway in the Pacific Northwest, possibly increasing earthquake risk;
"The probability of occurrence of a megathrust earthquake is about 30 times higher during this approximately two-week window, than during the rest of the 14.5 month cycle," Cassidy told LiveScience. "Having said that, 30 times a small number is still a small number." - Live Science
I will not belabor you with Katrina news. I have two updates on it that deal with the tragedy but not from an 'earth changes' perspective. But the damage from Katrina may pale in comparison to a 'big one' hitting southern California, so says this article from the AP.
1 Sept. – It seems clear that while the Department of Homeland Security has been preparing to intern thousands of people in Concentration Camps, it hasn't prepared to the kinds of Natural Disasters that FEMA is charged with taking care of. So have these shelters been built? Where are they, who got the money? Did they spend on fulfilling the contract or on Russian hookers? (don't laugh, impeccable sources tell me this is where more than a little of the Iraq money has gone).
It is hard not to criticize the ill- prepared and seemingly disorganized manner rescue operations are being conducted. Having known for years that this could happen. There appears to have been little planning. This is not a slam against the rescue workers who are risking all to help but against the policy makers whose job it is to run these operations.
In fact when the Bush administration had to make a hard choice between fixing the Levee's and spending billions on no-bid contracts in Iraq. They chose the Iraq contracts and making Cheney even richer.
While international offers of aid to assist have been tendered, DHS has not responded to other nations who want to assist. Why? How many more corpses must float in the Gulf before the Bush administration brings in someone who knows what they are doing? Since the residents of New Orleans are predominantly black, I don't think we will see much real help anytime soon, not unless Halliburton gets a large slice of the contracting pie. Is this how America prepares for the coming Earth Changes? If so we are all in deep trouble. More here.

31 August – Well, America has been hit and hit hard by Katrina. I will not belabor the tragedy by talking too much about it. I expect many more evils to transpire as our earth changes and America falls into grater decadence and spiritual evil. Let it be noted that New Orleans was the Voodoo and witchcraft capital of America. It was a city known for its excesses and now suffers from the excess of water which may completely submerge the city. While many of you like to mock God's people when they warn, here is my word to you. Repent or YOU are next! The time of DELAY is over.
I will take the flack from many of you who hate Sorcha Faal and link to three interesting articles. Those Big Time 'alternative news' sites that claimed she did not even really exist have been forced to 'eat crow' as she has traveled to and spoken here in the US recently. While I cannot vouch for the authenticity of some of her statements, she has a very different take on global events and her articles are packed with interesting links.

24 August - Extreme Weather in Europe. Fires, floods and drought are being noted across Europe, an Insurance periodical has noted.
21 Aug - No words today, just a picture and a link.
Earthquake
activity in the past 8-30 days Click map for more information.
Here is an interesting and excellent site that shows has a graphic look at the world with maps, chars and graphs. Click here.
12 Aug - While surfing I came across some interesting items from a news group that Fish are dying in massive amounts in certain areas of Florida Waters. Other strange things are happening with the fish in Florida waters.
Also the same thing has been happening near Oregon.
Millions of dead fish are washing up on the Texas Coast as well.
One must wonder how soon this prophecy will come to pass;
And the third part of the creatures which were in the sea, and had life, died; and the third part of the ships were destroyed. - Revelation 8:9
These are frightful times indeed...
2 August - The Volcanic Activity around the world seems to be imcreasing, at least to these 'untrained' eyes. The Ash plume at the Anatahan Volcano reached 34,000 ft. Mexico's Popocatepetl Volcano has erupted again as well as a volcano on a Nicaraguan island.
On another note, Scientists are seeing more dead birds and fewer fish on the pacific coast. Why?
Researchers have also reported a sharp increase in dead birds washing up in California, Oregon and Washington. Along Monterey Bay in Central California, there are four times the usual number of dead seabirds, said Hannah Nevins, a scientist at Moss Landing Marine Laboratories. “Basically, they're not finding enough food, and they use up the energy that's stored in their muscles, liver and body fat,'' Nevins said. - South Florida Sun Sentinel
Drought is a series problem in Illinois and recent rains have not helped.
The driest areas are in northern Illinois, extending down the Illinois River valley, but almost all of Illinois has been declared a drought disaster area, making farmers eligible for federal assistance in the form of low-interest loans. In addition, the drought has worsened in Wisconsin and eastern Iowa. In Missouri, officials are considering sending in a request for all counties in that state to receive aid as well. - The Lincoln Courier
This has affected crops especially corn.
"Corn has really been hit. At the very least, the number of kernels around the ear have been pushed back. And the beans are under stress too. Pulling close to average in bean yields is as good as we can hope for. A lot will depend what happens in August." - The Lincoln Courier
Missouri as well is under drought advisories and Nebraska is still suffering from drought conditions. In some areas the problem is that the Colorado River cannot meet increasing demands placed on it and the heatwave has reduced expectations for a bumper wheat harvest this year in Colorado. But as the drought has spread to places like Iwoa, the prices for some commodities will rise in price.
Temperatures in the western Midwest will reach 100 degrees (37.8 Celsius) regularly for the next two weeks, and rainfall will be below normal, said Al Peterlin, a meteorologist in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, for DynamicPredictables.com. Soils will dry rapidly, stressing crops, said Peterlin, a former top meteorologist at the U.S. Department of Agriculture. - Bloomberg
I need not tell any of you that the famine in Niger is due to drought as well as locusts. The drought also is effecting food production in nearby Mauritania.
25 July - Several notable Quakes have occurred
The nation as a whole is in the grip of a heat wave.
Sorcha Faal has an interesting update on confirmed Anthrax infections in the US.
19 July - Is this the real cause of global warming? EU scientists have linked increased radiation from the Sun with global warming. Read about it here.
A mystery is reported on about the ground in an area in Southern California that has ground temperatures above 500 degrees. I am no geologist, and do not have access to all kinds of reports that are restricted to the scientific priesthood, but I wonder if there is not a lot of lava traveling under the surface of the earth in this area causing a rise in temperature. The earth has changed since th 9.3 quake in December and we have seem a marked increase in moderate quakes the world over.
18 July – There has been a lot of interesting earthquake activity over the past few days.
A 5.5 quake rattled Myanmar (Burma) historic temples
A 3.0 quake shook Mt. Saint Helens and triggered a plume of ash.
A 5.6 quake jolted West Timor
A 5.2 quake hit the Big Island of Hawaii, which was followed by another 2.3 trembler.
France has been hit by a plague of locusts and they have been devouring everything from crops to flowers. More can be found here.
12 July - Scientists are finally getting a look at what really causes sea levels to rise using some new tools. Because so many people's lives depend on a relatively small rise in seal levels this study could be quite important.
I found and interesting report on Arctic Climate Change that some of you may find interesting. It can be found here. Many scientists believe that this warming will cause the earths oceans to rise. It will be most interesting to see exactly how all of the information is collated, interpreted and ultimately used. If Kyoto is any indication, then we are in big trouble!
The politicization of this issue and the lack of real debate as opposed to the false debate we are given is truly amazing. That something momentous is happening to the planet is beyond question. That Mankind is having a seriously negative effect on the planet is as well, beyond question. The real issue, as I see it is that debate has been hijacked by those who wish to use these issues to further their own agendas . The UN, to further amalgamate power and perhaps obtain additional revenues via taxation, the Oil companies and large international corporations to shift debate to (probably) insoluble problems such as nebulous 'climate change' and 'global warming' and devising solutions that shift energy intense activities to labor markets that have far less stringent environmental regulations and labor prices. When one visits third-world nations, many places have raw chemicals and sewage running through the poorest of neighborhoods and drinking water that is often contaminated. This is where efforts should be directed to solve the solvable on an international scale. Instead, given the current Kyoto paradigm, these tragedies will be duplicated in even more places as industries will be forced to relocate to these regions because of this poorly constructed protocol which will exacerbate rather than solve our climate and pollution problems. One post from a news group sums it up well. A link to it is here.
This debate must include the looming oil and energy crisis that is now in its early stages. Will it? Probably not. Our leaders seem to have a pathologic aversion to anything remotely resembling the truth and will latch on to any lie that puts money in the pockets of the rich.
5 Jul - Could more of these be the real cause of Global Warming of the earth's oceans?
A strong 6.7 quake hit the tsunami stricken region of Sumatra today.
3 July - Several quakes of note have happened along the coast in central America and Mexico over the past few days, dates are included in the links.
What does all of this mean? Who knows. If there is a relationship between these quakes and the crack in the earth that transpired in Texas then there may very well be some very dangerous events in the not too distant future as part of the North American plate may be about to break away. For more see Sorcha Faal's 28 June update here. Some are predicting a Tsunami on the West Coast of the North American Continent.
24 June - A massive crack in the Earth in Texas has been photographed, see here.
23 June – The past few days have seen some minor quake activity in diverse places around the globe.
To follow up on the activity in Illinois, some scientists believe that the central US may be due for a major quake in the next few years.
The volcano at Anatahan is erupting again emitting a thick could of ash and smoke while another volcano on Sarigan Island may erupt as some tectonic activity seems to suggest.
17 June – Another strong quake hit off the coast of Northern California this morning, it measured a 6.6. These quakes, the volcanic activity in Mexico as well a creeping magnetic polar reversal have scientists perplexed.
Stay tuned, things are getting very interesting.
16 June – Well, one reader pointed out the straight line configuration of the latest quakes in California. It is indeed most interesting in light of some of Sorcha Faal's recent revelations and in light of the todays moderate quake. See the map for yourselves.
15 June – A major quake occurred off the coast of California. It measured 7.0 a Tsunami warning was issued but was later canceled. The USGS has a forecasting service for this region that can be found here.
14 June – As most of you know there was a moderate quake in Southern California on Sunday. I was on the phone with a family member who lives in that area when it happened, it was of very short duration . There have been hundreds of aftershocks since then. As usual, Sorcha Faal has a most interesting update on this and the recent major quake in Chile, which killed 8. As will all of Sorcha's stuff, discernment is called for as well as some time to explore her interesting links.
10 June - Volcanic eruptions in Mexico and Papua New Guinea are in the news today. The Langila Volcano is dumping ash on villagers and aid is on the way. In Mexico, the famous Volcano of Fire is spewing rock and ash in a Friday morning in a spectacular display.
Also there were floods in China that caused significant loss of life as well as floods in Somalia that killed 40.
Drought is spreading in Eritrea and causing poverty. This coupled with a war with Ethiopia has caused serious problems for the African nation. The grain harvest in 2004 was less than half of that of the previous 12 years and is less than 15% of the nation’s grain requirements according to a story on AlterNet.
As mentioned in the update for 8 June, Australia is in a drought but climate change experts are saying it will be prolonged as the land down under is going through a prolonged period of climate change.
Members of the Bush Administration have altered a key climate change report to make it appear less severe than it really is. The White House is defending this and Lawmakers are asking tough questions.
8 June – Evacuations were ordered yesterday at Mexico's Volcano of Fire, which has been erupting. There has also been, as the bible says, lots of 'earthquakes in diverse places' and that is why the RSS feed is on this page.
Drought is a growing problem around the world. A drought in Djibouti is underway and no one wants to help. Malnutrition among the kids and women is growing and it seems that the worked community is as usual uninterested if the victims are black Africans. The Global response to Africa's ecological crisis seems to be, 'let them die'. Sadly the response for Africans is not like Asians got, as after the Tsunami. Niger may get some aid from the US for its famine, but it will come in the form of loans. Loans that poor nations are ill equipped to pay back. The Famine here is caused by hungry locusts that has devastated its cereal production and livestock.
Well, now drought is hitting Australia and it portends significant economic loss, it is the 3rd worst drought in its history and of course, it is getting some coverage in the Western press. Drought world wide is set to negatively impact economic growth to the tune of about $4 billion.
2 June - Several quakes have hit population centers today.
A 5.6 quake rattled Taiwan today
A 6.3 quake hit India's Northeastern region panicking residents.
A 5.9 quake hit some remote Tibetan counties
A 3.8 quake hit the New Madrid fault line in Tennessee.
In volcano news the 'Volcano of Fire' in Mexico gave off a midnight eruption and now authorities are considering evacuating the area.
On another note, I want to mention something interesting and somewhat frightening. The recent Bilderberg meeting touched on the problem of global pandemics, according to investigators. The Bilderbergs are an elite group of industrialists, politicians, bankers and journalists who meet regularly in the strictest of secrecy to schmooze and to discuss the world's problems. Don't let any one anywhere tell you these guys are not real and do not exist. They have been meeting for years and only now in the most obtuse fashion are even mainstream publications beginning to talk about them. According to one investigator, they are planning on giving the WHO enormous power to combat diseases and perhaps control populations.
The new powers given to the WHO include the possibility of travel restrictions, airport searches and quarantine measures shows that our elite are serious. Why do I bring this up? Well, I will give you a couple of links for you to read. From there, you can put two and two together.
The Meeting No One Talks About
