Changes In The Earth’s Rotation Are In The
Wind
An interesting 3/4/03 note from the Goddard Space Flight Center
website (www.gsfc.nasa.gov) said:
[quoting]
Because of Earth’s dynamic climate, winds and atmospheric pressure
systems experience constant change. These fluctuations may affect
how our planet rotates on its axis, according to NASA-funded
research that used wind and satellite data.
NASA’s
Earth Science Enterprise (ESE) mission is to understand the
Earth system and its response to natural and human-induced changes
for better prediction of climate, weather, and natural hazards, such
as atmospheric changes or El Niño events that may have contributed
to the effect on Earth’s rotation.
"Changes in the atmosphere, specifically atmospheric pressure around
the world, and the motions of the winds that may be related to such
climate signals as El Niño, are strong enough that their effect is
observed in the Earth’s rotation signal",
said David A. Salstein, an
atmospheric scientist from Atmospheric and Environmental Research,
Inc., of Lexington, Massachusetts, who led a recent study.

Of course we can’t assume that any of this important research is
going to be shared with the citizenry—whose tax dollars largely fund
the work.

Alaska Warming Is Look At Future
On another matter, on August 12, 2003,
Pope John Paul II led prayers for rain as temperatures across Europe
continued to soar. The reported number of heat-related deaths
continued to rise as well, leveling out well above
13,000—officially.
Moving now from Europe closer to home, consider this 8/10/03 item
from Seth Borenstein of Knight-Rider Newspapers:

Alaska is melting.
Glaciers are receding. Permafrost is thawing. Roads are collapsing.
Forests are dying. Villages are being forced to move, and animals
are being forced to seek new habitats.
What’s happening in Alaska is a preview of what people farther south
can expect, said Robert Corell, a former top National Science
Foundation scientist who heads research for the Arctic Climate
Impact Assessment team.
"If you want to see what will be
happening in the rest of the world 25 years from now, just look at
what’s happening in the Arctic" Corell said.
In Alaska, year-round average temperatures have risen 5ºF since the
1960s, and winter temperatures soared 8º in that period, according
to the federal government. The entire world is expected to warm 2.5
to 10º by 2100, predict scientists at the International Panel on
Climate Change.
Last year was the hottest year in Alaska history, and this past
winter was the second warmest on record, according to the National
Climatic Data Center in Asheville, NC, which found that Alaska’s
temperatures began to rise dramatically in 1976. This July,
Anchorage recorded its second-highest temperature ever.

Naturally, there will be no public mention of how much top-secret
tinkering—such as
HAARP—has to do with this kind of effect. As
James McCanney discussed earlier, do you suppose the consciences of the
scientists involved will ever win out over the intimidations of
their controllers?

Underwater Volcano Discovered In
Aleutians
And speaking of Alaska, how about
this 8/12/03 item from CNN News (cnn.com):
[quoting]
Underwater Volcano Discovered In
Aleutians
The North Pacific’s "Ring of Fire" can claim a new member—a
previously unknown underwater volcano in Alaska’s Aleutian Islands
that researchers in Alaska revealed on Monday.
Scientists this summer mapped the cone-shaped volcano, which rises
beneath the waters near Amchitka Pass, a gap in the chain of largely
uninhabited islands that separate the Pacific Ocean from the Bering
Sea.
The volcano rises 1,903 feet (580 meters) above the sea floor and
tops out less than 377 feet (115 meters) from the water’s surface,
said researchers with the University of Alaska at Fairbanks and the
National Marine Fisheries Service.

Ecuador Volcano Rumbles To Life
One wonders just how many other such hidden lava vents, similar to
the above report, are yet to be discovered. While we muse about such
underwater volcanic surprises, let’s pay close attention to the
increased activity on land, such as this for 8/22/03, reported by
major news services:
[quoting]
Ecuador’s Tungurahua volcano, in a state of simmering eruption since
October 1999, rumbled to life overnight, sending a column of smoke
and ash three kilometers high, the Geophysical Institute said.
The volcano, 5000 meters in altitude and 135 meters south of Quito,
is one of Ecuador’s most active.
[end quoting]
At a recent trip to our local post office, I noticed a flier on the
counter from Homeland Security geared toward "preparing" for an
emergency—such things as making an emergency supply kit,
establishing a family communications plan, and creating a plan to
"shelter-in-place" at an interior room of one’s residence. The
question begs to be asked: Is Homeland Security recommending these
actions for a potential "terrorist act" or for something much larger
along the lines of Earth changes?

Message Of Warning From Mayan Elders
Consider this excerpt from a
mid-August announcement shared by Mitch Battros through his Earth
Changes TV program:
[quoting]
Message Of Warning From Mayan Elders
The tribal leader’s name is Don Jacinto Patsan. He is of the "Mam"
tribe in Huehuetenango, Guatemala. It was delivered directly to
Adam Rubel of Seq’ Be’ on Wednesday via Mayan Ajq’ij Carlos Barrios, also
from Huehuetenango. Then delivered to me Thursday "on air" during
our interview via Carlos Barrios’ and Don Jacinto Patsan’s request.
They have told me between the period of August 16 and December 15,
2003, there is a strong potential for natural disasters "on a grand
scale". A specific type, time (as in a particular day), or place was
not given. What was said is, it will take the form of earthquakes,
volcanoes, fires, and floods.

Others who have an attunement with
Mother Earth echo similar warnings.

Closing Thoughts
The cumulative data suggests that
Mother Earth is gearing-up for some significant adjustments. While
the dire predictions of Earth changes that have been made over the
last two decades have gone largely unmanifested—SO FAR—something
significant is clearly happening with our planet at this present
lively time.
Will we look back on the current level of activity as a precursor of
what unfolded just around the corner? That’s largely out of our
hands.
It IS important for us to always remember to keep God in the
equation when thinking about humanity’s plight in the midst of such
planet-wide events. It is far too easy to slip into depression and
become overwhelmed. Constructive action and positive thought are as
important now as ever.
We may not need a weatherman to know which way the wind blows, but
I, for one, am grateful to have
James McCanney’s input concerning
how planetary conditions are affected by the Sun and the solar
winds. If there is one point made loud and clear from his
discussion, it’s that everything in this vast Universe is indeed
connected. So if the Sun sneezes, we’d better be paying attention!
