quote:We may be about to experience peak oil, the most oil the world will ever produce, after which it will fall into rapid decline. Every aspect of industrial civilization is built upon oil. Not just the gas for our cars but the petrochemicals that go into virtually every good that that is produced and – most importantly – into synthetic fertilizers and pesticides of mechanized agricultural production. Unless we undertake an Apollo project for renewable energy right now, resource wars will continue to proliferate, billions will starve to death and industrial civilization will collapse.
American may also be facing an economic collapse that could make the great depression look like a hiccup. Billionaire market oracles like George Soros and Warrren Buffet and organizations at the pinnacle of the global capitalist system like the International Monetary Fund and Bank of International Settlements are already sounding the alarm right now. The confluence of the federal deficit, gigantic business and personal debt, an real estate market inflated by 30-40%, multi-trillion dollar mortgage holders Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac teetering on the edge of bankruptcy, a stock market trading at double its historic price-to-earning ratio, severely under funded pension funds, and a $150 trillion dollar weapon of financial mass destruction known as derivatives could all combine to form a perfect storm that decimates the American economy and takes most of the global economy down with it as well.
Add to this the environmental stress of a poisoned and brutalized planet pushed far beyond its natural carrying capacity and we face the very real specter of the collapse of industrial civilization, the economy and the environment in the very near future.
The permanent government knows this, which is why the statutory, judicial and “law enforcement” mechanisms of a full-blown police state are already in place. Several trial balloons have already been floated. The extra-judicial assassination of an American citizen by a Predator missile in Yemen, the holding of Americans without charges or access to legal counsel, the infiltration of law-abiding activist groups, police riots in Oakland and Miami rampaging against peaceful, non-violent protesters, a dramatically enhanced regime of surveillance, and even the prospect of martial law and a suspension of the constitution after the next manufactured, mass casualty “terrorist incident,” as suggested by General Tommy Franks in a recent edition of Cigar Aficionado. They already have the power. It is just a question of if and when they choose to flip the switch.
A time of great danger to be sure but also a time of great hope and opportunity as well.
We can no longer let a bloated national security state spend 50% of our tax dollars on a program of perpetual war for perpetual peace that has already killed over 8 million people overseas since World War II. We can no longer allow an unaccountable national security state run amok at home and abroad to protect nothing whatsoever except the rapacious and psychopathic interests of the transnational corporations. We can no longer allow an omnivorous national security state to eat the hope of generations to come.
Historically the nation-state has almost exclusively served the interests of corporatism and militarism. We are at a crossroads of the evolution of historical consciousness of a first order of historical magnitude. At the very least, the events of the next five years will determine the course of human history for the nest five hundred. We must find a way to move beyond ignorance and fear and anger and racism and xenophobia and hypocrisy or everything we hold most dear will die – democracy, security, prosperity, the constitution, the impartial rule of law, laughter, joy, and curiosity.
Either we find a way to use the power of the nation-state to immediately establish a universal regime of peace, social justice and environmental sustainability or we will brutally violate the legacy of the unborn and watch in shock and awe as the entire wicked filthy Babylon system goes up in flames, crashes down and shatters into a million pieces.

...quote:Earth might seem like a more active and dangerous place than ever, given the constant media reports of multiple natural disasters recently. But a broader view reveals that it's not just Mother Nature who's changed, but we humans.
...quote:According to the EM-DAT, the total natural disasters reported each year has been steadily increasing in recent decades, from 78 in 1970 to 348 in 2004.
Guha-Sapir said that a portion of that increase is artificial, due in part to better media reports and advances in communications. Another reason is that beginning in the 1980s, agencies like CRED and the US Agency for International Development (USAID) began actively looking for natural disasters.
"Like in medicine, if you go out into a village and look for cases you find much more than if you just sit back and let people come to you when they're sick," Guha-Sapir said.
However, about two-thirds of the increase is real and the result of rises in so-called hydro-meteorological disasters, Guha-Sapir said. These disasters include droughts, tsunamis, hurricanes, typhoons and floods and have been increasing over the past 25 years. In 1980, there were only about 100 such disasters reported per year but that number has risen to over 300 a year since 2000.

* There's one more hurricane coming to wipe out another city.
Two weeks ago, we has a cermony, Sitting Bull came in and he talked to me; Crazy Horse, he talked to me; Chief Big Foot talked to me and they asked me to go to the Seven Council Fires and to the Council People and to warn all of these Fires, within six months.
* There's going to be a tidal wave that's going to wipe out Los Angeles.
* There 's going to be an eruption in the northwest with the volcanoes, within six months.
* Two eruptions within six months. They say from the eruptions of theses volcanoes, the ash is coming, the Missouri River will be destroyed.
*They say the water that we drink from the ground is going to be no longer drinkable.

* This food issue in the Bible, it says one day there will be no food in the store's shelves. If you look at the hurricane, a lot of the stores, there's no food on the shelves.

De aardbeving is aan de andere kant van Australie, dan dat waar de walvissen stranden. Dan zwemmen ze dus richting het gebied.
En dan nog, de aardbeving was zo'n 2000 km bij Perth vandaan, wat weer dik 3000 km van Tasmanie/Canberra ligt.
Als dus walvissen aanspoelen in Californie, dan kunnen we midden in de Atlantiche oceaan een beving verwachten?

Kort samengevat: records, records, records !quote:Sunday's twister, which killed 22 people, was at its peak a strong F3 on the Fujita scale, with winds that reached or exceeded 200 mph, according to National Weather Service estimates.
That makes it the strongest, and deadliest, November tornado since an F4 twister with winds of 207 mph to 260 mph killed two people died in Van Wert, Ohio, on Nov. 10, 2002
Hurricane Wilma ligt ondertussen een tijdje achter de rug, maar blijkbaar niet voor vele Floridians.quote:MIAMI - At the Orange Bowl, the line in the hot sun stretched for blocks Wednesday, as tens of thousands of hurricane victims applied for emergency food stamps.
When officials began taking applications in Palm Beach County, people actually ran to get in line, some pushing baby carriages.
For the next few days, the state of Florida is offering food money to low-income residents hit hard by Hurricane Wilma. What's striking is these are people who normally aren't considered poor enough to qualify for food stamps but who now are in serious trouble.

quote:The East Coast on Wednesday was starting to feel a storm front that earlier spawned tornadoes across the Midwest and Southeast on Tuesday, killing at least two people and tearing through dozens of homes.
NBC News weatherman Al Roker said on the “Today” show Wednesday that the front posed a “slight risk” of severe weather, including tornadoes, from the Carolinas to New York State.
quote:Some East Coast temperatures will be 20 to 30 degrees colder than Tuesday, he added, describing the front as “very unusual” for fall and more typical of spring.
...quote:The severe weather — the third front to produce tornadoes in nine days — was caused by a collision of winter and summer: A cold front from Canada that’s moving east collided with warm, humid air from the south to produce severe thunderstorms and funnel clouds across Kentucky, Indiana, Illinois and Tennessee on Tuesday. Thirty-five tornadoes were reported in all.
