Posted on 05/25/2003 1:59:43 PM PDT by ranair34
This article reviews the extremely disturbing evidence that catastrophic Earth changes may be far more real, and above all, far more imminent than has been thought. We summarize the work of the Nobel physicist Alfven in establishing the electromagnetic component of any competent future paradigm of the solar system, and indeed, of cosmology in its broadest sense. This is based upon the crucial importance of plasma physics to astrophysics and cosmology a fact which, for reasons that are discussed, has simply not been taken into account in the establishment orthodoxy of those sciences. Furthermore, this article summarizes James McCanneys theoretical and practical research which leads to the conclusion that NASA is attempting to distract attention from the very real dangers of imminent Earth changes. The purpose of the article is to allow non-specialists, that is to say, the public at large, to make up their own mind on these dramatic matters.
There is a sufficient quantity of evidence from a number of scientific and historical disciplines particularly from the application of plasma physics to the study of the solar system, but also from the geological record of planetary catastrophes and magnetic polar shifts to make it virtually inconceivable that there will not be major Earth changes within a matter of months or, at most, within a year or two.
In this article, the authors present the evidence for this assertion in such a way that people can make up their own minds as to whether they find it convincing or not. One immediate question that is likely to arise upon being confronted with this entire matter is this: given the very dramatic nature of the predicted Earth changes and extremely serious consequences for everyone and for humanity as a whole, how has it come about that so few people are aware of the dangers? The question is addressed in this article, and, in a nutshell, there are two major answers.
First, the evidence comes from a variety of different sources, none of which are very much at the forefront of peoples minds, so that without a major fanfare and wake-up call, the events could easily be upon us like the proverbial thief in the night. Second, the state of solar and cosmic physics is so fragmented and confused that it has been relatively easy for NASA and the official organs of the scientific-military establishment to create a smokescreen of disinformation. Their position is based on the notion that the truth would only create panic in the already roiled market, and that the statutes of the major scientific and technological institutions specifically forbid anything that would alarm the public.
To James McCanney and the Millennium Group for Truth in Science goes the credit for taking upon themselves the responsibility to inform us all of the purely scientific basis in terms of an understanding of the physics of the solar system supported by the empirical data flow directly from spacecraft experiments of the urgency and seriousness of the probability of earthshaking changes. Taken in conjunction with an examination of the geological record of previous planetary catastrophes, the evidence is overwhelming.
James M. McCanney=s book, Planet X, Comets and Earth Changes
is sub-titled: a scientific treatise on the effects of a new large planet or comet arriving in our solar system, and expected earth weather and earth changes.
In his book McCanney makes a strong case for (1) the fact that the new electrodynamic paradigm in astronomy and astrophysics has already been established (2) that it is being vehemently opposed and denied by the scientific, academic establishment, including and especially NASA. (3) that there is overwhelming evidence for the reality of and existence of Aa new large planet or comet arriving in our solar system@ and that (4) NASA and a majority of the astronomic and astrophysical establishment, have a vested interest in completely denying all these points (5) that he has written his book in order to place before the public the truth as he sees it. (6) that the reason for the urgency is that the new Aintruder@ into the solar system is going to cause massive earth changes. The question, he states, is not whether the changes will occur, but when.
The authors of this review have written it in the spirit of point (5) above. That is to say, for them there is only one reason for writing the review. It is to pass on, as best they can, the evidence that McCanney presents, in order that readers may make up their own mind, and draw their own conclusions.
The old paradigm for understanding the origin and functioning of the solar system is overwhelmingly dominated by gravitational mechanics. It dates back to Newton when little was known about electricity. Similarly, the Kant-Laplace hypothesis concerning the nebular original of the solar system knows only gravitation; electro-magnetism plays no part in either the origin or functioning of the system. The same is true of the next major step in the history of scientific cosmology Einsteins 1917 Cosmological Considerations Concerning the General theory of Relativity.
In the 1940s and 1950s, Velikovsky championed the importance of electromagnetic phenomena in the solar system, both in his books, and in his correspondence and discussions with Einstein, in which Velikovsky insisted that celestial mechanics without taking into account the electromagnetic fields is in conflict with the facts. (1952)
At about the same time, this theme was taken up by the mathematical physicist Hannes Alfven, in great experimental and theoretical detail as described below.
The nature and importance of the fourth state of matter, and specifically of matter in an electrically charged state, has a history that goes back to Crookes in the 19th century. Crookes realized that gasses through which an electrical current has been passed, themselves acquire a charge. In 1928, Langmuir coined the term plasma to describe that mixture of gas, charged ions and electrons. The advent of plasma physics has created a revolution in science which has not yet been fully recognized. Indeed, partly by accident, and partly with cold deliberation, the reality of the plasma revolution in cosmology has been utterly played down.
The groundwork for the new electromagnetic dimension of cosmology, crystallized around a single outstanding figure - Professor Hannes Alfven and his team at the Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm.
1942 marked the beginning of Alfvens application of hydrodynamic theory to plasma physics. He created the magnetohydrodynamic equations describing the motion of plasma as a fluid in electromagnetic fields. He drew attention to the fact that Waves of electrons and ions are found not only in laboratory plasma but also in the atmospheric and solar plasmas. Such waves are now known as Alfven waves, and for this work, Alfven shared the 1970 Nobel Prize in Physics.
In 1946, Landau formulated the equations that describe the interaction between particles and waves in plasma, and about the same time Bohm used the term plasmons to refer to the concerted behavior of electrons in a plasma.
Let us take a brief look at the first two editions of Alfvens Cosmical (sic) Electrodynamics, published by the Clarendon Press, Oxford, in 1950 and 1962 respectively. The second edition was co-authored by Falthammar, and the English of both editions has an interesting Scandinavian flavor. In 1954, Alfven published On the origin of the Solar System which, in 1975, was expanded as Structure and Evolutionary History of the Solar System, co-authored with Gustaf Arrhenius.
In the Preface (written in 1948) to the first edition of Cosmical Electrodynamics, Alfven spoke softly, but already sounded a big drum:
Recent discoveries have revealed that electromagnetic phenomena are of greater importance in cosmic physics than used to be supposed. The time now seems to be ripe for an attempt to systematically trace the electromagnetic phenomena in the cosmos
In the General Survey, Alfven continued : It seems very probable that electromagnetic phenomena will prove to be of great importance in cosmic physics. Electromagnetic phenomena are described by classical electrodynamics which, however, for a deeper understanding, must be combined with atomic physics. This combination is especially important for the phenomena occurring at the passage of current through gaseous conductors which are treated by the complex theory of discharges in gas. No definite reason is known why it should not be possible to extrapolate the laboratory results in this field to cosmic physics. (op.cit. p.1)
What emerges from a comparison of the two editions is the consolidation of the densely mathematical and cosmological arguments of the first, into the virtual certainty of the new paradigm in the second. As the authors point out in the preface to the second edition:
A The purpose of the first edition...was to draw attention to a field of research in an early state of development...to the fundamental principles of plasma physics and magneto-hydrodynamics...the magnetosphere...interplanetary space, to solar physics and to cosmic radiation. During the 15 years that have elapsed since the first edition was written, the subject has been developed by two of the largest research efforts of our time: thermonuclear research has increased our knowledge of magneto-hydrodynamics and plasmas, and... space research has been devoted to the exploration of the magneto-hydrodynamic conditions around the Earth@
Consequently, the second edition incorporates all the relevant findings from these new fields of research - plasma physics as developed in thermonuclear research etc., along with the early space data into the consolidation of the crucial importance of electrodynamics in astronomy and astrophysics.
Thus Alfven states In cosmic physics, electromagnetic processes have recently attracted a rapidly increasing interest, and it is now generally realized that they are of fundamental importance In the interior of the Earth there exist electromagnetic processes by which the earths general magnetic field is generated. In the ionosphere electric currents change the earths magnetic field, especially during magnetic storms, and also produce luminous phenomena, aurorae, in certain regions around the geomagnetic poles .In the magnetosphere, a complicated and rapidly varying system of currents [were] found by space research measurements. In certain regions (the radiation or Van Allen belts) there is also a flux of high-energy charged particles trapped in the magnetic field. (Cosmological Electrodynamics, 2nd edition, p.1)
Furthermore, The conditions in the ionosphere and the magnetosphere of the earth are influenced by the electromagnetic state in interplanetary space, which in turn is affected by the sun. There are a number of solar electromagnetic phenomena sunspots, prominences, solar flares, etc. In other stars electromagnetic phenomena are of importance, most conspicuously in the magnetic variable stars. (ibid., p.1.)
Alfven goes on to point out that it was not until classical electrodynamics had been combined with hydrodynamics to form magneto-hydrodynamics, which further must be combined with plasma physics in order to allow a deeper understanding of electromagnetic phenomena in cosmic physics. (ibid., p.2.)
The term plasma refers to an ionized gas, an ensemble of neutral molecules, electrons, positive and often also negative ions, together with the energy released from the excited atoms. Alfven stresses the crucial importance of plasmas for cosmology. The properties of plasmas are of paramount interest in cosmic physics because most of the matter in the universe is in the plasma state. In the interior of stars, the gas is almost completely ionized. In the photosphere of the sun (and other stars) the degree of ionization is not very high, but above the photosphere, in the chromosphere and the corona, the ionization is again almost 100%. Vast regions of interstellar space, particularly around the hot stars of early spectral type, are highly ionized In the sun and interplanetary space, probably also in interstellar and intergalactic space, the plasma is penetrated by magnetic fields As a consequence, the astrophysicists interest in plasma physics is mainly concentrated on magnetic plasmas. (Alfven, op.cit. p. 134)
In their volume Structure and Evolution of the Solar System , (published in 1975 by Reidel), Alfven and Arrhenius continue to refine their astrophysical model. In their Introduction, they assert that
Many of the generally accepted theories [in this field] lack a valid foundation (p.xv) One such theory which cannot stand critical examination is the Laplacian concept of the formation of the sun and the solar system by non-hydromagnetic processes. (p. xv)
They go on to criticize the fact that whereas [I]n most other fields of cosmic physics it was realized already 25 years ago that electromagnetic processes have a dominating influence on the dynamics of cosmic gas clouds (plasmas), the majority of cosmogonic papers published today are still based on the assumption that such forces can be neglected (p. xv) This is only marginally less true today than when it was stated by Alfven in 1975.
Alfven and Arhenius insist that The processes involved in the formation of celestial bodies in our solar system requires us to use not only the methods of ordinary chemistry and ordinary celestial mechanics, but also those of plasma chemistry and magnetohydrodynamics generally ignored or incorrectly applied (op.cit., p. 4)
Here is how Falthammar, a colleaugue of Alfven described the situation in 1988: It was widely believed that cosmic plasma would have negligible restistivity From that it was [mistakenly] concluded that the electric field would be a secondary paramter, of little importance Therefore, electric fields, and especially magnetic-field-aligned electric fields, which we now know to be of crucial immportance, were long disregarded. Even today, only a few space missions in the outer magnetosphere have included measurements of electric fields.
It is a sobering fact, adds Falthammar, that even after hundreds of satellites had circled the earth, the concept of our space environment was still fundamentally wrong in aspects as basic as the existence and role of electric fields of the near Earth plasma itself.
Leaving these earlier, but absolutely essential contributions to our understanding of the fundamental electromagnetic component of the solar system, which complement, and certainly do not exclude, the classical gravitation/inertia view of celestial dynamics, let us see how and where McCanney fits into the picture.
ENTER JAMES McCANNEY
McCanney took up the baton in 1979 and the early 1980's at the Physics and later the Math departments at Cornell. Given the retardation effect with respect to the electromagnetic component, that Alfen has made clear, it is easy to understand, yet utterly lamentable that McCanney was not given tenure at by either department. The other side of that coin is that McCanney was free to take up the role of an independent scientist, not subject to the pressures of the scientific community, peer pressure or governmental non-disclosure agreements and funding. (ibid. p. 32)
Cornell had certain advantages: the Library was part of the Library of Congress network, so if a book was in print, it was available. Even more importantly, it was a repository of data from NASA. As we read in the introduction to his book,
Armed with his existing theoretical work, and this incredible source of information and with the timing that coincided with the daily arrival of new data from the Voyager and other space craft, he [McCanney] was in a totally unique position to do what he has done@ (loc.cit. p.iii)
In other words, schematically speaking, McCanney took over where Alfven left off. Here is the core of McCanneys position with respect to the electromagnetic part of the paradigm.
(1) Our solar system acts like a large electrical circuit Our sun forms an electric capacitor (a separation of electrical charge as done by a simple DC battery in a flashlight)
(2) This solar capacitor has its negative pole at the surface of the sun, and also has a negative pole far out beyond the outer planets in the form of a sparse nebular cloud of dust and gasses.
(3) An excess current of protons continually generates and supports the solar capacitor by way of the solar wind (literally a wind of such particles leaving the sun and blowing outwards into space)
(4) All stars and galactic nuclei, and even unlit small stars such as our planets Jupiter and Saturn are producing cosmic batteries around themselves.
(5) This is a natural by-product of the nuclear fusion process (the burning of nuclear fuel such as hydrogen, helium, etc.) in the atmospheres of these celestial objects. (McCanney, op.cit. p.10)
(6) The sun is powered at its atmospheric surface by an electrical fire of hydrogen and helium that we call fusion that is constantly ignited by energetic lightning bolts in its turbulent atmosphere. It is the local electric field at the outer surface of the sun (the solar corona of high energy electrons) that hurls the vast solar flares out into the far reaches of the solar system. The positively charged protons are accelerated outwards, while the negatively charged electrons are retarded, thus causing what I have called the excess current of protons in the solar wind. The sun produces far more energy in the form of electrical energy than it does in the form of light energy. (ibid. p.13)
(7) To give an idea of the stupendous magnitude of solar flares, they release the force of 10 million volcanic eruptions in a matter of minutes. Furthermore, a single coronal mass ejection (CME) can carry more than 10 billion tons of hot, electrically charged gas [i.e.plasma] from the suns corona into space, a mass equivalent to that of 100,000 battleships packing a punch comparable to that of 100,000 hurricanes and travelling at between 1-5 million miles an hour.
(8) The power of CME lies in its ability to drive currents in the
Earths magnetosphere and if the magnetic field carried by
The CME has a southward orientation (opposite Earths northward-flowing magnetic field lines) the magnetosphere gets a major jolt transferring millions of amperes of electric current to the magnetosphere. (Carlowicz and Lopez, op.cit. p.89) This can knock out powerlines and electric generators, and disrupt all forms of electronic communication.
(9) That is as far as the establishment position goes - and Carlowicz & Lopez represent the establishment viewpoint which McCanney denounces, because it deliberately fails to warn against the far greater dangers which the solar storms hold namely their capacity, when triggered by comets or planets intruding into the solar system, to produce major earth changes such as polar shifts, flash freezing of continents, which certainly occurred in the past. That Carlowicz & Lopez do in fact mislead their readers is evident from their statement, on p.91, that storms from the sun cannot harm life on the surface of the Earth.
(10) In the summer of 2001, at the recommendation of a panel of space and solar physicists, NASA announced the cancellation of the International Solar-Terrestrial Physics (ISTP) program. The Agency decided that official co-ordination of the international missions was a scientific luxury it could no longer afford. NASA withdrew its support for the (solar) Wind mission, and for participation in Japans Geotail mission. Funding for some of the key elements of the ISTP success story the theory and modeling programs, the data centers, the ground-based observatories was almost entirely cut off. Why? Because the co-ordination of the data from all of those sources would have let the cat out of the bag and made it a lot more difficult to sustain the two illusions that (1) electromagnetism plays a negligible part in solar physics and (2) there is no real, imminent threat of major catastrophic Earth changes.
When celestial body such as an asteroid, a comet or a planet enters the solar capacitor it will cause a localized and then more extended electrical discharge of the capacitor. This much like the backyard bug killer or zapper that discharges when a bug flies between the high voltage screens. (p.14)
What happens next is that the increased electrical activity imparted to the solar atmosphere ignites a higher level of nuclear fusion causing the sun to become excited above its normal levels and may ignite small to very large solar flares. Small comets have many times been observed to directly cause solar flares as they pass near the sun. (ibid., p.16)
Small comets generally discharge only the small localized regions of the solar capacitor, whereas the very large ones can discharge up to and including the entire capacitor These are the ones (such as the anticipated Planet-X) which are growing much larger and pose a serious threat to the existing planets including Earth. (p.12)
Now here is the crux of the matter: The sun is currently at levels never experienced before and it is increasing to record levels of activity every day. We were supposed to have peaked in the year 2000 with the solar maximum [We are currently over two years beyond that, and there is no end to the increases in sight. It definitely indicates that the sun is currently interacting with a large intrusion into the solar capacitor. (p.21)
The intruder is capable of action at a distance in the following manner. The comet would discharge to the solar surface causing a significant solar flare that could blow a huge wall of high energy protons our way, causing an alteration of [Earths] magnetic field structure [which under ordinary circumstances, acts as a protective shield] and cause electrical and cyclonic storms at the surface of the earth. (pp.21-22) This in turn could trigger massive Earth changes of the kind that are known to have already occurred in the geological record.
Earth has been subjected to a close encounter by at least one massive new comet becoming a planet in the time frame of no more than 10,000 years ago. The time frame that clearly makes] sense for the last event is approximately 3,500 years ago, the time we see a dramatic transition between pre-history and the digging of modern man out of the devastation. There is no longer any other possible scenario and modern science is impeding progress each day that it holds the reins of power and prevents this reality from blossoming forth. (op. cit., p.100)
It was Velikovsky who fifty years ago pioneered the above hypothesis and McCanney has a special tribute to Immanuel Velikovsky in which McCanney insists on the value of Velikovskys insight: says McCanney: NASA scientists have been repeating for 25 years that Velikovsky has been proven wrong. It is time to set the record straight. It was NASA that was [and is still] wrong. Velikovsky single-handedly did more for the advancement of true science than all of the NASA scientists in the last 3 decades combined. (p. 102)
The proceedings of the Second IEEE International Workshop (published in Astrophysics and Space Science Vol. 227, 1995, and reprinted in book form the same year by Kluwer Academic Publishers as Plasma Astrophysics and Cosmology ed. Peratt, A.L.) fully support the immense importance of electromagnetism in the practical and theoretical study of cosmology. The most obvious reason for this importance lies in the fact that 99% of the matter in the universe is in the form of plasma which is composed, precisely, of electromagnetically charged gas, ions and electrons.
McCanney goes on to assert that, on the basis of the electromagnetic theory of solar system and planetary formation, the solar system was not born at a single point in time. It began with the Sun and Jupiter. All the other planets were integrated into the solar system by capture. They began as comets in elliptical orbit, but as they accreted more and more debris by virtue of their electrical charge and attraction, they slowed down and their orbits settled into circular motion around the sun.
We clearly know today that the pre-planet comet [that became Venus] was CAPTURED by Jupiter, a process that is very common, and well understood mathematically, and has been observed as every one of the major planets have associated families of comets that were captured. Venus is a hot new planet. (p.101)
A similar process of capture is happening with Planet X. The perturbations of the solar corona bear witness to its entry into the solar system. The question is not whether it is there or not, the question is when will its presence cause major earth changes.
The sun is currently at levels never experienced before, and it is increasing to record levels of activity every day It definitely indicates that the sun is currently interacting with a large intrusion into the solar system (op.cit.p.21)
However, McCanney states that the timing of the earth changes cannot be accurately predicted because even if a large new object were known about today with exact location and orbital information, its orbit will change on a daily basis and the true orbit and location will elude prediction although rough estimates can be made if an actual candidate is identified. (McCanney, op.cit., p. xii)
It is a major contention of McCanneys that NASA and the academic astronomy and astrophysical establishment have been, and still are, engaged, not only in peddling the antiquated pre-electrical paradigm of celestial functioning, but also that they are engaged in a massive cover-up. He says, therefore, It is imperative that the public turn to the truth of what is really going on, and force NASA to release any data regarding new planets or other large objects.
However, McCanney fears that the opposite is going to happen: NASA will work harder and harder to put their name, and their incorrect and borrowed information (mixed with their outdated and incorrect theories) in the public eye through news releases, TV and weather specials and newspaper articles. (McCanney, op.cit. p. xii)
It is essential that the public recognize them for who they are and what they are. It is also important that the public understand the correct information so theyre not lead down the wrong path by what appear to be well-educated scientists who stand behind their Ph.D.s
and government funding
It is safe to say that the NASA scientists are in complete denial. They hide behind a news release system in which no one can ask them questions, they hide behind their own referee system in which they referee their own articles, or, as in the case of automatic publication in SCIENCE or NATURE journals, articles are not refereed at all. (p.8)
What really is at stake, according to McCanney, is that for every day that NASA sits back, says nothing and collects an ill-gotten paycheck, it is another day that the human civilization on this planet goes unprepared for a critical time of survival as a species. (p.9)
McCanney brings before the bar of public opinion the following statements: NASA was caught lying and producing doctored photos to prove that the comet Hale-Bopp did not have a companion NASA began blatantly hiding data from many space investigating facilites including the Hubble Space Telescope, the SOHO solar observatory NASA developed public relations offices whose function was to fend off problematic people like myself with planned disinformation campaigns. (McCanney, p.44)
The NASA news release system is strict and comes only from designated NASA news points in Goddard Space Center, and Jet Propulsion Labs. Individual scientists are under strict non-disclosure agreements These scientists cannot discuss or admit publicly any event that might cause public alarm. That is why the data regarding a new arrival like Planet X will not be allowed from the halls of NASA. They are under strict contract NOT to tell the public. (McCanney, op.cit. p.49)
[It] is clear that NASA has observed such objects [as Planet X] and is hiding the data from the public. (p.32) Similarly: There is clear evidence that NASA is now hiding data that would prove that there is another massive object inbound into the solar system with potential for devastating effects on planet Earth. (p. 101)
The fallacy of materialism is its inability to comprehend the primacy of consciousness and of light.The critical importance of electricity and magnetism in cosmology can be approached from another angle. Electromagnetic force is the cosmic medium that actually links human, planetary, solar, and galactic systems. The universe is not a mechanical contraption of inert matter; it is a vital organic, conscious whole, and electromagnetism is the medium by which information is exchanged between the various members of that totality.
The bio-electric subtle bodies of humanity, the core of planet earth, its electromagnetic fields, the heliocosm (or solar field), and the galactic center (the Great Central Sun or the Sun behind the Sun) are linked by a two-way, top-to-bottom and bottom-to-top cosmic walkie-talkie, electromagnetic information system. This is what gives the cosmos its unity. Animated by conscious beings, there is a cosmic code that harmonizes and synchronizes the various different vibratory frequencies that characterize each of the planetary, solar, galactic and nebular sub-systems. That code is electromagnetic; its essence is light. Light, not matter is primary. Consciousness is not material, though it may be embodied. Light and consciousness are similar, and primary.
Matter is secondary; consciousness is electromagnetic and is primary. This integral, holistic understanding of the universe is a far cry from the crude, one-dimensional, dangerous, dead and deadly paradigm of scientific materialism to which the military-industrial-scientific complex still clings, and of which NASA and its space programs is an essential part.
The bio-electric subtle bodies of humanity, the core of planet earth, its electromagnetic fields, the heliocosm (or solar field), and the galactic center (the Great Central Sun or the Sun behind the Sun) are linked by a two-way, top-to-bottom the beginning was Light. This is not the antiquated claim of an anthropomorphic religion; it is the basic realization of the new spiritual, scientific, holographic and electromagnetic paradigm of the universe.
Of this paradigm, Arguelles points out that it brings into focus a world of coherence and unity, a resonant matrix of information transmission. Underlying this cosmic loom is the principle of harmonic resonance (op.cit., p.54). Resonance has to do with the vibratatory frequencies of any system that produces waves - sound waves or electromagnetic waves, any kind of waves. Harmonic resonance means the exchange of vibration, harmonizing or synchronizing, and sometimes dissonant, between of two or more vibrating systems, whether these are tuning forks, violin strings, pendulums, or planets.
It was the Maya, in South America, who pioneered this understanding of the order underlying the cosmos, in which mind or consciousness is primary and in which there is nothing without feeling and the field of reality is saturated with purpose. (ibid. p.56) The purpose of the continuous exchange of information between the galactic center and the other members of the galaxy is the superior coordination of the member organisms, the star systems. This entails the capacity of local intelligence i.e. the planetary mind or field of consciousness being able to perceive the whole and align itself accordingly and to extend this process of alignment to other member systems. The galactic game is superior intelligent harmonization through which the local intelligence is taught or shown how it works, in such a manner that it comes to its own conclusions without coercion. (ibid., pp.56-7)
What do we know of the solar or planetary cycles? The solar system is a self-contained organism whose subtle sheath or morphic field is called the heliocosm. Every 11.3 years the heliocosm pulses outward and then for another 11.3 years it pulses inward. These 11.3 inhalation-exhalation cycles are referred to as the heliopause, whose total movement thus occurs over a period of some 23 years (ibid., p.118)
In parallel with this heliopause cycle there is a binary sunspot movement in which two spots one negative, the other positive pulse inward from positions 30 degrees north and south of the solar equator. Approximately every 11.3 years the two spots meet at the equator, reverse polarity, and begin the process again at 30 dgrees north and south of the solar equator The sunspots activity causes great disturbance of the Earths radio waves and the bio-electromagnetic
field in general. (118)
The sun is the central coordinating intelligence in the solar field. The planets represent harmonic gyroscopes whose purpose it is to maintain the resonant frequency represented by the orbit which the planet holds. (119)
Though the heliocosm, the total solar body, is a self-regulatory system, it is at the same time a subsystem within the larger galactic field. Thus its inhalation consists of [receiving] cosmic forces galactic frequencies- monitored either directly from the galactic core and/or via other intelligent star systems. Its exhalation [or transmission] represents transmuted streams of energy/information returned back to the galactic core [known to the Maya as Hunab Ku, and to contemporary investigation as the Great Central Sun or the Sun behind the Sun].(ibid., p.119)
How does the planet Earth receive these electromagnetic impulses? The resonance of the earth functions like the oscillations of a giant electromagnetic battery. The key features of this battery are the two shells of the ionosphere, the lower lunar and the upper solar shell, respectively 60 and 70 miles above the terrestrial floor of the electromagnetic ocean. It is the currents of the ionosphere in direct resonance with the solar and lunar fields that moderate the wind and atmospheric conditions of the lowest layers of the electromagnetic ocean. Oscillating at approximately 7.8 cycles per second, the ionosphere is in resonance with the human brain, which when oscillating at 7.8 cycles per second reflects a condition of samadhi, or [profound] meditational absorption. This common neural-ionospheric frequency is a prime key [to the full development of the Light Body of the Earth and of individual human beings]. [op.cit. p.186]
Far beyond the ionosphere lie the next two components of the Earths electromagnetic battery, the radiation belts the lower, positively charged, the upper, negatively charged electron solar belt. It is these belts, like cellular membranes, that mediate the larger electromagnetic currents connecting the earth to the Sun and to the other systems of the galactic hub..." [ibid. p.186]
The potential for the harmonizing of the galactic, solar, and planetary vibratory rates with the human is evident in the common neural and ionospheric frequency of 7.8 cycles. This is not only the frequency of enlightenment, but it also augurs the possibility of a further transformation the generating of the Light Body, both of individual human beings, of humanity as a whole, and of the planet.
But that is another whole chapter in the story. Here, I have been concerned to show why the electromagnetic paradigm is of such crucial importance to the evolution of humanity. It follows that the forces who wish to continue to exploit humanity by reducing everything to materiality, also wish to stunt that evolution, oppose the paradigm, and do all they can to pretend it doesnt exist, and that Planet X doesnt exist, and that the Earth changes that it may cause are pure fiction.
Here we shall be following the evidence assembled and presented by Hazelwood in his account of the entire Planet-X scenario.
In January 1981, several daily newspapers carried a report that Dr. Richard Harrington and his colleague, Dr. Thomas Van Flandern, of the US Naval Observatory, had told a meeting of the American Astronomical Society that irregularities in the orbit of Pluto indicated that the solar system contained a 10th planet. A similar story was run by the New York Times on June 19, 1982.
One year later, in 1983, the newly launched IRAS (Infrared Astronomical Satellite) quickly found Planet-X: A heavenly body as large as Jupiter and part of this solar system has been found in the direction of the constellation of Orion by an orbiting telescope wrote the Washington Post. In August 1988, a report by Harrington calculated that its mass is probably 4 times that of Earth. In 1992, Harrington and Van Flandern published their findings and their conclusion that there is an intruder planet. The search was narrowed down to the southern skies, below the ecliptic.
Planet-X is likely to be a brown dwarf whose orbit takes it back and forth between our Sun and our Suns twin. Planet-X has an orbit which takes 3660 years. When a planets orbit is between two suns, instead of round one, that orbit is a bit peculiar. It spends 99.99% of its time slowly going away from one of the suns to reach the half-way point. Then the gravity of the sun its approaching takes over, and in a relative flash it travels the other half of its journey. Planet-X reached the halfway point sometime in 2000. It only takes about 3 years to travel the rest of the distance Itll be cooking with its greatest speed by the time it passes. Once it crosses Plutos orbit, it will only take 90 days to pass right between Earth and the Sun. The most likely date for its passage and effect on planet Earth is 2003. In 1982, even NASA, momentarily officially recognized the existence of Planet-X:
An object is really there beyond the outermost planets. Today, NASA is trying to sweep the danger under the carpet, claiming that it is nothing more than a large asteroid. But, whereas until early 2001, only the largest telescopes could have seen Planet-X, now even small to mid-level observatories are sighting it. On the 4th of April 2001, the Lowell Observatory reported its magnitude and co-ordinates.
The last ice-age pole shift is proof that we had an encounter with a large celestial body at that time (McCanney, op.cit. p.93) The old true north pole had been just north of the state of Wisconsin. Russian Siberia had a tropical climate with rain forests, and mastodons. In a single night of total destruction, those areas were blown apart by incredible winds and storms, and the pole shifted an estimated 30 to 40 degrees. Overnight the mastodon herds were flash frozen and buried in what is now the Siberian tundra, with the fresh tropical plants still in their throats. The meat was so well preserved that it was used as food (and even sold on the commercial markets) during the building of the trans-Siberian railway. Even a single day of exposure to a warm temperature would have rendered this meat rancid and useless. The Earth Change was so rapid and complete that this did not happen. The meat was as fresh as the day it froze, thousands of years earlier About 3600 years ago, which is precisely the period of the most recent visit of Planet-X before the present time.
In conclusion, the authors of the present paper review will be satisfied if it helps draw wider attention to McCanneys work in such a way that readers will want to make up their own mind regarding the significance and dramatic implications of McCanneys book.

Egypt arrests former Israeli soldier in Sinai
By ASHRAF SWEILAMAssociated Press
The authorities say the 24 year-old unarmed Israeli entered Egypt near the Taba crossing.
He was detained by Egyptian authorities Monday. The officials say he was trying to reach the Gaza Strip through Sinai to fight alongside Palestinians. They identified him as Andre Yaacoub.
Also known as Andre Pshenichnikov, a Jewish immigrant to Israel from Tajikistan, he made headlines earlier this year when he announced he wanted to renounce his Israeli citizenship and move to a Palestinian refugee camp in the West Bank.
The Egyptian officials spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to speak to reporters.

Digital Ads: Craft or Crap?
Shots fired – adland's problem with digital
We summarize, and take a look at the evolving reaction to, Marc Pritchard's IAB speech at the beginning of the year. Digital adland and publishers were put on one year's notice to clean up their act, and as the end of Q1 approaches, we thought we'd bring the story up to date.
On the 29th of January, Proctor and Gamble's Chief Brand Officer Marc Pritchard pressed the media for more transparency surrounding media buying and view-ability for online advertisements at the IAB's annual leadership meeting. He started by describing the current system as "antiquated" and unable to keep up with the evolving digital industry hence the increase of ad blockers by consumers. He explained that technology enables Craft and Crap but more often than not, "the outcome has been more crappy advertising accompanied by even crappier viewing experiences".
"We have an antiquated media buying and selling system that was clearly not built for this technology revolution. We serve ads to consumers through a non-transparent media supply chain with spotty compliance to common standards unreliable measurement hidden rebates and new inventions like bot and methbot fraud" he said, according to a transcript of his speech seen by Marketing Week.
"Better advertising and media transparency are closely related. Why? Because better advertising requires time and money, yet we are all wasting way too much time and money on a media supply chain with poor standards adoption, too many players grading their own homework, too many hidden touches, and too many holes to allow criminals to rip us off".
He then listed out five action steps P&G is taking to clean up the media supply chain during 2017 which is open to any and all business in the industry to apply.
- Action one: Adopt one view-ability standard
- Action two: Implement third party verification
- Action three: Get transparent agency contracts
- Action four: Prevent ad fraud
- Action five: Vote with our dollars
In his conclusion he said, "We have a media supply chain that is murky at best and fraudulent at worst. We need to clean it up, and invest the time and money we save into better advertising to drive growth." Thereafter he gave agencies, publishers, suppliers and ad tech companies an ultimatum to either comply or P&G works with and buys media only from entities that comply which will in turn give the company the assurance that the ads created by P&G are experienced by the consumers they serve in the most productive way.
The aftermath and industry response
As we approach the end of the first quarter of the year and since his speech was delivered in January, we thought it wise to be on the lookout for what has happened since, what is likely going to happen and who has said what on the importance of digital ads transparency. The most recent case is the case of Google versus media agencies in Ireland and the United Kingdom were brands are calling on the multinational technology company to do more to ensure ad safety especially in terms of openness, transparency and measures to avoid ad fraud and misplacement in the digital economy.
Reputable company executives have also voiced out their opinions on this issue like, Ian Miller, the CEO and Co-Founder of Iris Worldwide said that Marc's comments came at a time desperately need in the industry. However, agency/client relationships have gone so far from being meritocratic which brings about this question, "are media agencies and channels working together to stop the process of evolution in the industry?"
He proposed the idea that the digital industry should be focused on creating content and conversations that do not feel like advertising. However, it should be focused on things people actually want to watch for longer than two seconds.
Andrew Stevens, CEO of the Goodstuff commends the Chef Brand Officer on the issues he has raised and commends him on the action plans he has proposed. He is of the opinion that all good adverts from P&G and any other company boils down to selling more soap and powder which is basically making profit. To him the powerful competitive advantage is to be found in creativity and innovation.
"If Pritchard really wants to slap the wrists of the global networks, create change and sell more soap powder, I urge him to look harder at more innovative and new world agency partner options. I encourage him to look at different models (Hearts and Science being one) and different ways of delivering competitive advantage in media. Mix it up, Experiment. Try something new. Right in this moment P&G has such a big opportunity to reset how clients and agencies work. Don't blow it". He said
A humorous and tongue in cheek response from, the Outdoor Advertising Association of America caught the eye. They put up six billboards near the P&G headquarters in Cincinnati shouting "Hey Marc, This ad is real". According to the OAAA Chief Marketing Officer Stephen Freitas, "The idea isn't entirely about poking fun at viewership problems of digital media. It is meant to portray out-of-home as a perfect complement to the digital space, because it is out there in the real world and can help guide you to some of that digital content".
An emerging issue for agencies and publishers – misplacement
In related news, web brand misplacement seems to be an issue on the rise. Major brands are putting a stop to advertising with Google. The reason for this is because company advertisements are being placed along side inappropriate content on the internet.
Brands to pull out of its advertising spends with Google and YouTube recently include the French media group Havas (UK & Ireland), Channel 4, Core Media, Verizon, AT&T, Johnson & Johnson and Enterpirse. Other are sure to follow. According to the UK CEO of Havas Media Paul Frampton, the company has a duty of care to their clients to position their brands in the right context where the environment is safe, regulated to the degree necessary and in line to their brand objectives.
According to the Irish Independent, "Companies such as Marks & Spencer, McDonald's and Tesco have already withdrawn advertising from Google in the UK because of their ads being placed within extremist YouTube videos". Twitter user AdContrarian also posted a tweet recently on this speculating, " Heard on the street: McDonald's USA is about to cancel all its Google/YouTube/DoubleClick advertising. This is starting to look serious".
In conclusion, what is likely going to happen to the digital industry if crap is promoted on a daily basis rather than craft? What would happen if multi-billion dollar companies like P&G pull out of the digital marketing economy? Lastly can this action plan be implemented in the digital industry?

Cthulhu Stirs
I really wanted Cthulhu to rise from the deep but he just rolled over mumbled a bit and went back to sleep. I honestly thought I could finish the sculpture this weekend but there is still quite a bit to go. You may wonder what I was doing gallivanting about on a road trip with all this work to do but I promise I was crocheting all the way in the car and in the motel that night.

Road Trip
I cannot remember the last time Scott and I managed to go away anywhere together which made our road trip over the last couple of days extra special. In preparation for our upcoming week in New Zealand we went away for a night to give our excellent friends Wendy and Bevan a chance to practice looking after the terrible two.
We drove up to Bendigo on Good Friday under some of the most fabulous cloudscapes.
Every so often a really heavy squall would come through.
When we got there we went to the Chinese Museum which was full of the most stunning embroidery unfortunately the lighting was too dim to get pictures of most of it but I did manage this one.
We also fed the goldfish in the garden.
We had a fabulous dinner at The Dispensary Enoteca I highly recommend it if you visit, especially the Cucumber Martini and the Gorgonzola Soufflé.
After a not too comfortable night owing to a soggy mattress we had a yummy breakfast of poached eggs and headed off to the Bendigo Woollen Mills. I mail order a lot from them for my monsters but this is the first time I have been to the factory outlet. Needless to say my stash has been enriched and my wallet depleted - now I just have to figure out where to put it all.
Next we went to the chrysanthemum and goat show. I had no idea chrysanthemums were so big some of the flowers were almost as big as my head.
The best bit of course was the goats, they had these beautiful Anglo-Nubian goats with totally amazing colours and spots.
This particular goat loved Scott she put her hooves up on the fence and lent over to give him a big kiss, she was beautiful and we would have smuggled her home in the car if we could.
Then we discovered there is such a thing is a miniature goat - I want one so badly they are adorable. Apparently you can keep them in our area if you get a permit from the council.
Then we went back to the centre of town for lunch and a wander round the art gallery. We drove home the back way via Kinglake and Yarra Glen. All in all a fun journey and the dogs were not too evil while we were gone, although Corto is still in a bit of a sulk.

Time To Catch Up
I know I have been missing for a bit but I have been working away on monsters. Cthulhu is the last large monster for the exhibition and I am probably about a third of the way there.
He is going to be bigger than I thought.
I have also done a bear making class with Linda Benson which was lots of fun. I haven't made bears for ages but I learnt some wonderful techniques which I hope to apply to some of my other work. I have not quite finished due to monster time pressures but it is very cute so far.
I learnt so many cool things about making leather noses, and eyelids and paws and open mouths.
Other than that have had my Aunt and her friend visit or a couple of days which was lots of fun.
We are going to Bendigo for a night at Easter to visit the Woollen Mills and see the Chrysanthemum and Goat show (an odd combination I just just hope none of the goats get out and eat the flowers).
But mostly I will be crocheting Cthulhu.

Golden Age Villains
Yesterday I presented Brad Spencer, Wonderman and his girl friend and gal Friday Carol Paige. I mentioned that he had some outer space villains and today I thought I'd present a few of them as well. Leader of the crew is Dr. Voodoo, an alien criminal mastermind. His chief sidekick appears to be the Immortal Emperor, who's exact function I haven't determined. On the sun Dr. Voodoo has a crony named Solaris, who rules one of multiple cities on the sun's surface - ouch!! While on Pluto Dr. Voodoo has set up Lilith who's titles include Goddess of Evil, Regent of Darkness, Princess of the Planet Pluto and Supreme Ruler of the Universal Realm - whew!! In one story the sun is referred to as being 92 million miles from earth, which is at least pretty close to its 93 million. But in the other story Pluto is said to be 35 million miles from earth, when in reality it is between two and seven BILLION miles from earth. Anyway, Dr. Voodoo and his cronies seem bent on controlling various parts of the solar system with their mad-science devices and the only one who seems able to stop them is Wonderman. Isn't that great??!! As for the action figures; Lilith was made using a Toy Biz Jean Grey body and the head from a Wonder Woman. Immortal Emperor was made using various GI Joe parts and I sculpted the head from Sculpy. As for Solaris, he was made from a Star Wars Star Destroyer Commander and the head from a Black Hole Reinhart figure. Dr. Voodoo himself was made from a Mayor May Who from the Grinch Stole Christmas - who's hair I dremeled off and then gave him Sculpy ears and those strange horns and goatee. Wonderman's rogues gallery - after all, what's a hero without villains to battle.

My prayer:
Awesome all powerful God. You have given me a new dream God, a big one. One that is so big, I don't know how to take the first step let alone how to get there from here. I have been told that if a dream is small enough to accomplish on my own, then it is not from you. I assume the opposite must be true too. If a dream is so big I can't imagine how to accomplish it, it is probably from you? I hope so because there is no way this thing will happen unless you make it happen.
I am intimidated by this dream God. I am overwhelmed by it. However, if it is what you want, lead me, guide me, show me what to do next. I am on board. I love you God and if I have learned anything in my life with you it has been that your plans are always better than mine. Your will be done God.
What God Said Tonight:
Is there anything too big or too hard for me? Trust me in this and in everything, that I would not plant the dream in you if I did not have a plan and a way to make it happen. I have seen the end from the begining in this and it is good.
When you get afraid, think of the many things that we have done so far. None of them were things that you thought you could do. Many of them were things you couldn't even imagine. This is just the next level of that. I told you I was going to set a new fire in you. You had to know there would be a purpose for that fire. This is the purpose. Don't be afraid. I will lead you through this like I have so many things. One step at at time, we will move forward until, before you know it, you will be looking back saying, "Wow, how did we get here?"
I love you and I am excited about the new vision. It is going to be great. You will have to trust me more than you ever have. You are going to have to follow my lead more than ever before. You are going to have to do things that you have never done and things you don't think you can do. Remember every time you had to step out in faith in the past and how I have always shown up, then step out again. I will guide you always. I will help you always.
We are going to do something phenomenal in this next season. It will be more than you thought possible. It will be more than is possible for you but with me all things are possible. This will be significant and something to remember.
I love you daughter. Thank you for being willing. Be courageous now and trust me again.

The History: A couple of years ago, I started journaling my prayers and God's responses to them. I told my friends about this, they were really interested. I told my Pastor about it and he said, how about sharing those on line. When I asked God, He said, my words are for you, but not just for you. And, here we are...I hope He speaks to you in these words.

Hard Ride #3: A Novel in Three Parts by Opal Carew
Liv never expected to rekindle her romance with her college boyfriend, who's now a hard-bodied, tattooed biker. And she never imagined sharing herself with his entire gang.
Shock can feel Liv pulling away from him, just like she did all those years ago. Her lies are a painful reminder that she's not ready for anything more than a good time in bed, but he's not willing to let her go. He lost her once, and it's never happening again. Faced with losing the one thing he's always wanted, he must prove to Liv that what they have is more than physical and that his heart is in her hands. But is she ready to give him hers?
This is part three of HARD RIDE, a three part novel.
I was given a copy of this wonderful book from Netgalley and the publishers.
What can I say about the final installment in this intense book. Well I LOVED Liv and Shock to pieces. I loved the sexual chemistry between them and the way they were with each other. What happens when other people get involved in their business is an explosion. You have to read the whole 3 installments to get the immense trip out from this wonderful experience.
Will definitely be reading more of Opal Carew in the future.

Raymond Domenech will take the opportunity to assess his France side's options before the World Cup when les Bleus meet Spain in a friendly in Paris next week, having named a number of new faces in his squad to tackle La Furia Roja.
After a prolonged media campaign in France, Olympique de Marseille's dynamic midfield Benoit Cheyrou has received a call, while team-mate Hatem Ben Arfa has not been overlooked either. Both have been in tremendous form for les Phoceens of late, with Ben Arfa coming back from the brink of leaving the club to star in several fixtures over the course of the last two months.
In addition, Girondins de Bordeaux defender Michael Ciani has received recognition for his string of excellent performances in recent times. The centre-back has proved himself a stoical figure in the heart of the rearguard, even aiding his club side with three vital goals in the Champions League, including a strike in Tuesday's 1-0 success over Olympiacos. Lille central defender Adil Rami is also called.
Finally, Everton hitman Louis Saha has received recognition for his sparkling form in the Premier League by earning a recall to the side. The former Manchester United man's career has been plagued by injury problems but his form of late has left pundits in England drooling, with a decisive brace against Chelsea in a recent league encounter a particular highlight.
Saha's gain is the loss of Djibril Cisse, who had hoped to earn a call to the side after enjoying a prolific start to his career in Greece with Panathinaikos.
Les Bleus will turn out for the game wearing a new white strip with pinstripes of red and blue.
France squad to face Spain on March 3:
Goalkeepers: Hugo Lloris (Lyon), Steve Mandanda (Marseille), Cedric Carrasso (Bordeaux)
Defenders: Jean-Alain Boumsong (Lyon), Michael Ciani (Bordeaux), Julien Escude (Sevilla), Aly Cissokho (Lyon), Patrice Evra (Manchester Utd), Bacary Sagna (Arsenal), Rod Fanni (Rennes), Adil Rami (Lille).
Midfielders: Lassana Diarra (Real Madrid), Yoann Gourcuff (Bordeaux), Moussa Sissoko (Toulouse), Jeremy Toulalan (Lyon), Benoit Cheyrou (Marseille), Florent Malouda (Chelsea).
Attackers: Nicolas Anelka (Chelsea), Hatem Ben Arfa (Marseille), Franck Ribery (Bayern Munich), Thierry Henry (Barcelona), Sidney Govou (Lyon), Loic Remy (Nice), Louis Saha (Everton)

It didn't have anything to do with a workout.
But it had everything to do with how I see myself.
He asked me to change one little word in the subtitle of my blog.
My blog is called "Running in Place and Getting Nowhere Fast: The ups and downs of an overweight lady trying to become healthy through running. And now biking and swimming! :-)"
Jon wants me to take out one little word.
At first I thought that it made sense. I do need to change how I speak and think about myself and that's a great place to do it.
But here it is, four days later and I still haven't done it.
I literally have tears in my eyes thinking about it.
Sounds silly, doesn't it?
Self image is a really difficult thing to deal with.
I've identified myself for so long as an overweight person that I'm not sure what I am without that label.
I was trying to think of what over word I could put in place of overweight.
Happy, feisty, funny, athletic, loving, strong, amazing, scared, tired, frustrated, stressed, loved, hardworking, confident, uncertain, sassy, silly, friendly, loyal, fierce, exhausted.
There are so many words. And yet the ones that come to mind first are these:
Fat, overweight, obese, unhealthy, incapable, slow, frustrated, big.
Shorter list but the words seem so much bigger.
Actually, writing out the two lists makes me realize that there is much more to me than just my size.
While not everything in the first list is necessarily positive they are more realistic about my life and who I am then just focusing on the weight.
I have come a long way in many mental areas on my journey to be healthy. However, I still have a long way to go in many mental areas.
Self image is still something that I need to change. I may not speak it as much as I used to but it's still there. I still think of my self as a fat person. An overweight person. I know that the scale isn't the end all of determining my health and fitness. How my clothes fit is a better indication and what I'm capable of as an athlete is also something I should focus on. But his winter some weight came back on and my clothes don't fit like they did last summer. This does not help with the self image of being overweight.
So I'm going to change the word overweight in the subtitle of my blog. Because I know that I need to be speaking, and writing, with a different focus when it comes to my self image.
What word do you think I should use? I'm planning on changing it in the next few days. It would be interesting to see what word you think should be in the title. 😁
