An Important Message to the Flock

For the ministry of Yahweh and Christ, our Grand Creator and Loving Savior, comes the time in which one door closes while another door opens. Established in 2005 and under the guidance of Yahweh’s holy angels for the purpose of bringing Yahweh’s Light of Truth to Mankind in these End Times, we have now completed our work in the 10th month, ten representing Completion, of the year 2011.

The nourishment that has been freely and graciously given by our Creator for this final and pre-Armageddon generation can be found via the many links listed on our website homepage www.LightofLifeMinistry.com, Facebook Page and on each of our blogs. It remains as a guiding light for those who continue to seek Truth so that it might be found. It is all that will be available in these final days prior to the Rapture and then, Armageddon in which Yahweh’s elite holy angelic warriors, the Lions of Zion will invade, execute those of evil mankind that remain and remove all traces of Dawn Lucifer Satan the Devil’s evil imprint upon this world.

For many, the door to deliverance, salvation and eternal life is closing and there will be no other door that then opens for them.

May Yahweh and Christ lead you to Truth and may that Truth set you free. In the name of Christ Jesus our loving Savior and vindicator of righteous rule we pray, Amen Father Yahweh.

John 8:32 You will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.

The Closing of a Door

By Minister Johanna

We were instructed 6 1/2 years ago to spread Father’s Truth. We have done this through many different mediums. The ways that we have done this was by posting Her Kingdom Message of Salvation and sharing Her Nourishment on message boards, myspace, twitter, Facebook and posting blogs. We have now completed the cycle of spreading Truth of Yahweh and Her son Christ. The number 10 represents completion and we are in the 10th month. The door is closing so now is the time to accept the Truth that we have spread for so many years. There is a saying that when one door closes another one will open but I am here to tell you that isn’t always the case. Yahweh will only open another door for us so many times before She will seal that door as she did in Noah’s time. I want to share with you all a poem that I found today that spoke to me.

The Closing of a Door

by Janet Martin 

That will not be just any closing of the door

When it swings shut it will be like never before

We come and go just as we please but then, no more

No, that will not be just any closing of the door

Those will not be just any tears we shed

If we look up, behold the cross and turn our heads

If we wait until judgement hope is dead

No, those will not be just any tears we shed

These are not just any words He writes

There is no gray, all is black and white

We ought to tremble at His power and might

No, these are not just any words He writes

That will not be just any closing of the door

As the elements melt with a mighty roar

And God’s wrath on wickedness will pour

No, that will not be just any closing of the door

What Time Remains

By Minister Deborah

According to Yahweh’s perfect timing, there is an occasion for everything and for every activity under heaven. All things are done according to Yahweh’s divine plan. The time has now come for the judgment of the righteous and the wicked, just as there is a time for everything in creation.

The Mystery of Time Ecclesiastes 3:1 There is an occasion for everything, and a time for every activity under heaven.

Ecclesiastes 3:17 I said to myself, “God will judge the righteous and the wicked, since there is a time for every activity and every work.” 

For now the door leading to deliverance from this dying earth and to salvation and sanctuary is still open, but our message to you in this final newsletter is that it is closing. We do not know when the door will be closed, only that it will be soon.

Genesis 19:10 But the angels reached out, brought Lot into the house with them, and shut the door.

We need only to look at the past in order to see the future, and what we do know is that Yahweh sealed the door shut on Noah’s Ark seven days before the rains came and washed every living thing on earth away.

Genesis 7:7-10 So Noah, his sons, his wife, and his sons’ wives entered the ark because of the waters of the deluge. From the clean animals, unclean animals, birds, and every creature that crawls on the ground, two of each, male and female, entered the ark with Noah, just as God had commanded him. Seven days later the waters of the deluge came on the earth.

If anyone thinks that they can wait or sit on the fence, then they have chosen to oppose the Kingdom rather than humbling themselves and welcoming Christ as Lord and Savior into their heart and mind.

Revelation 3:16 So, because you are lukewarm, and neither hot nor cold, I am going to vomit you out of My mouth.

The current rapture is progressive and ongoing. There is only a possibility of a second and final rapture prior to the start of Armageddon when Yahweh’s elite holy angelic forces of the Lions of Zion will invade the earth. A second rapture is not guaranteed, but what is guaranteed is the cleansing of the planet Earth by fire.

Matthew 13:41-42 The Son of Man will send out His angels, and they will gather from His kingdom everything that causes sin and those guilty of lawlessness.They will throw them into the blazing furnace where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

Revelation 16:8 [ The Fourth Bowl ] The fourth poured out his bowl on the sun. He was given the power to burn people with fire,

It is with fear and trembling that we must each work out our own salvation. It is up to each of us to make the choice, and, if you choose to do so, now is the time.

John 10:9 I am the door. If anyone enters by Me, he will be saved and will come in and go out and find pasture.

For those who choose not to do so, be forewarned:

Luke 13:25 once the homeowner gets up and shuts the door. Then you will stand outside and knock on the door, saying, ‘Lord, open up for us!’ He will answer you, ‘I don’t know you or where you’re from.’

Then the LORD Shut Him In

By Minister Regina

In the sixth book of Genesis, we are told of a time in which judgment was decreed over all those living on the earth.

Judgment Decreed 

Genesis 6:5-8 “When the LORD saw that man’s wickedness was widespread on the earth and that every scheme his mind thought of was nothing but evil all the time, the LORD regretted that He had made man on the earth, and He was grieved in His heart. Then the LORD said, “I will wipe off the face of the earth: man, whom I created, together with the animals, creatures that crawl, and birds of the sky—for I regret that I made them.” Noah, however, found favor in the eyes of the LORD.”

If our eyes are open, we see that things have come full circle, from a time of widespread wickedness early in the days of this earth’s creation and again to another time of widespread wickedness in these End Times. Not a single day goes by in which we do not hear, read or witness on TV or in person, an evil act in some shape or form committed by mankind.

Genesis 6:11-14 “Now the earth was corrupt in God’s sight, and the earth was filled with violence. God saw how corrupt the earth was, for all flesh had corrupted its way on the earth. Then God said to Noah, “I have decided to put an end to all flesh, for the earth is filled with violence because of them; therefore I am going to destroy them along with the earth.”

And again, Yahweh has decided to put an end to all flesh, both man, woman and animal will be executed and He will cleanse the earth, destroying every living thing on it. All flesh will again perish, only this time it will not be due to a worldwide flood and what comes down from the heavens will not be rain, but those holy angelic warriors of the Lions of Zion.

Genesis 6:16 “You are to put a door in the side of the ark.”

Yahweh instructed Noah to build a door to the ark, and that door stayed open for a very long time – as long as it took Noah to complete the ark and receive instructions on when to board it. It remained open for so long, that people probably got used to seeing it that way. And when they weren’t mocking Noah when he answered their questions, or they heard from others, as to what and for what purpose he was building it, they assumed, since they didn’t believe to begin with, that it would remain that way. Today, as in Noah’s day, many are used to the door of salvation being open because it has stood open for so long that it has been taken for granted by those who believe that it will always be there whenever they might be ready. But this is not Truth. Just as in Noah’s time, the door will be closed and all those caught outside will not be able to gain entrance any more than those caught outside when it began to flood were able to board the ark.

Imagine how it must have felt for those outside when the rain began to come from the sky and flood the land all around them. And when they moved to higher ground it crept up to them there as well. And still higher, and higher until they could go no higher and they were cold and wet and without food and by that time the waters were so deep and the rain so torrential that they knew they were doomed and they could see the ark but the door was shut tightly closed, with no way to reach it and no way to swim or climb to safety and they were thinking, “If only I’d known…if only I’d listened…” All that was left for them to do was watch the waters rise, and rise, and rise. There was no escape. It was too late.

Genesis 7:16 “Those that entered, male and female of all flesh, entered just as God had commanded him. Then the LORD shut him in.”

However…

There is still a little time left before the door closes – but not much. Heed the warnings, see the signs and do not make the same mistakes those complacent disbelievers of Noah’s time did. Open your hearts to Christ and reach for Yahweh’s light and instead strive to be one of the ones who are shut in, not shut out.

How to Survive Until You are Raptured to Sanctuary

Group with trusted friends and family members. Live in one dwelling capable of providing the necessities for all members, preferably a farmhouse outside of any of the large cities. Purchase a wide-band battery powered radio, and a large supply of canned goods and water in sealed containers. Break the surplus canned food and water up into different parcels and then place in heavy plastic bags and tie them off and bury them around the property in different locations. This will prevent the total loss of the entire stash if you should fall victim to marauders.

Take what prevention you feel is necessary to safeguard your group when law and order are not forth coming. Then wait things out. If you are members of the remnant – even if just one single person, you will be rescued by the LOZ.

Don’t wait until the time is at hand. Gather your groups for a meeting and make preparations ahead of time.

If you have followed this ministry’s past advice, you will be even safer if you followed the steps they laid out. Preferably a location that is hidden from view and near and open water source.

The clock is ticking – don’t let this opportune time slip past you without planning and implementing for what is just ahead.

We would like to announce the arrival of Book Two, the continuation of Chosen: End Times Truths Revealed.

Book Two starts where the first book left off and includes accounts from ministers Regina, Johanna, Deborah, and Elisha, describing their individual journeys and experiences in their service to Yahweh and Christ over the past several years in autobiographical form.

The final edition of Chosen is available to read on Google Docs by clicking on THIS LINK.

The Journey Continues

Below is a sneak-peek of each of the books included in Chosen, Book Two

There are many days in which I feel as though I must stop and focus and just try to get through the next 24 hours, some days even just the next hour, and then that day passes and the next arrives and passes, and arrives until all of a sudden a year has passed, and then two and four and now five.

It’s odd how time can seem to pass so slowly and quickly at the same time. Many of these days, the good and the not-so-good, I will recount here and many have receded to the deeper recesses of my mind but what I’m able to remember, I share with you here honestly and openly…

On October 2nd or 3rd of 2005,  I was on this website were there were camera’s placed through out peoples homes who claimed that they were being haunted. I have always liked supernatural things. I believed in ghost, angels and demons. I started talking to this woman and asked her how she see’s the things that she does. I also told her that I believed in spirit guides. She told me that she couldn’t help me with the guides but that she knew of a website where I could find some answers. She sent me the link to a forum by the name of “Beyond This World”.

Word came to us toward the end of May 2010 that we were to begin documenting our experiences ending where Chosen left off.  Each Minister is to produce a “book” of our own that will be incorporated into Chosen. Its a little daunting to say the least. I have not been journaling as Regina has been (it isn’t something I naturally do). Also, I actually do not have a very good memory. But I trust that those things that Father wishes us to recall we will. We have been guided by Michael to read the book of ACTS to guide us. It seems to focus on events that show times of strong guidance from/interactions with Holy Spirit…

In 2006, I was able to reconnect with a long time friend. I found out she had co-authored a book. Considering how we had grown up together I was interested in the fact that she had written one and wanted to read it myself. She, Regina, sent me the book and some more details about it. I found out it was a lot to take in and did so in baby steps with much prayer and guidance from Father. I was blessed to freely ask any question of Regina and felt comfortable in doing so.

3/30/11 Ark of the LORD’s covenant

Joe: Deuteronomy 31:26 “Take this book of the law and place it beside the ark of the covenant of the LORD your God, so that it may remain there as a witness against you.” 

Children, Seraiah moved the Ark of the LORD’s covenant to Mount Zion just …as it was moved to Yahweh’s inner Sanctuary in olden times on earth, and now in the recent past.

1 Kings 6:19 “He prepared the inner sanctuary inside the temple to put the ark of the LORD’s covenant there.” 

But it is returning minus the mercy seat.

1 Chronicles 17:1 “[ The LORD's Covenant with David ] When David had settled into his palace, he said to Nathan the prophet, “Look! I am living in a cedar house while the ark of the LORD’s covenant is under tent curtains.” 

Yahweh’s Covenant with Christ Jesus whom is settled into his kingship under Mother Israel. The curtain was for a reason, It can be lifted away. It is the VEIL. The return of the Ark of the LORD’S Covenant minus the mercy seat…

Revelation 11:19 “God’s sanctuary in heaven was opened, and the ark of His covenant appeared in His sanctuary. There were lightnings, rumblings, thunders, an earthquake, and severe hail. (Part of the Bowls of Anger and the Great Earthquake that follows for the cup of Wrath to be administered.) “….. and bearing the LAWS of Yahweh, means that it will be present for the WRATH to be administered because the evil people of this planet and those rebels in the spirt realm remain under LAW. And how does it correspond to the Ark Noah and his family found REFUGE and MERCY within?

Genesis 6:18 “But I will establish My covenant with you, and you will enter the ark with your sons, your wife, and your sons’ wives.” 

A Covenant, an Ark. Offering Safety and the possibility of Salvation for eternal life. Law set aside, but later contained within the Ark of the Covenant of Yahweh, for She is a God of LAWS.

3/30/11 Sanctuary

Joe: Wrapped in the 8 of infinity. Drenched in the Sacred blood of Christ Jesus.

Job 41:19 “Flaming torches shoot from his mouth; fiery sparks fly out!” 

Psalm 21:9 “You will make them [burn] like a fiery furnace when you appear; the LORD will engulf them in His wrath, and fire will devour them.” 

A large asteroid children,… Just as it occurred to Sodom and Gomorrah and the other nearby cities of that judgment day.

And…..Yahweh’s true likeness – that of Her face will also appear, and this will be disastrous for evil people.

Exodus 10:28 “Pharaoh said to him, “Leave me! Make sure you never see my face again, for on the day you see my face, you will die.” 

Yahweh spoke these same words to Adam and Eve at their expulsion of the Sacred Garden. And, Ezekiel 38:19 “I swear in My zeal and fiery rage: On that day there will be a great earthquake in the land of Israel.” 

The land of Israel is Her reality we exist within. And to the nations of 2011:

Jeremiah 28:16 “Therefore, this is what the LORD says: ‘I am about to send you off the face of the earth. You will die this year because you have spoken rebellion against the LORD. ‘ “ 

Zephaniah 1:3 “I will sweep away man and animal; I will sweep away the birds of the sky and the fish of the sea, and the ruins along with the wicked. I will cut off mankind from the face of the earth—the LORD’s declaration.”

Unless you are raptured away from the earth, you would share in being swept away, just like Lot was warned when he was ushered away to safety by the holy angels whom took him by the hand and led him and his family away from the coming Wrath. Lot’s wife perished, because she was not obedient to Yahweh’s command.

Genesis 19:15 “At the crack of dawn the angels urged Lot on: “Get up! Take your wife and your two daughters who are here, or you will be swept away in the punishment of the city.”

The angels providing limited protection even before Lot and his family left the city.

Genesis 19:10 “But the angels reached out, brought Lot into the house with them, and shut the door.” 

Limited, because at that time, Lot and his family were still in harms way until they left the doomed city.

This corresponds with Satan blinding the masses from the doorway of the Kingdom of God. The end result will be the same.

As those angels closed the door when Lot was safely inside, reveals a closing of the Ark’s door in Noah’s day when it was sealed from those outside that were evil and no longer worthy of entering the Sanctuary.

Being left out of Sanctuary is disastrous for all that fail to receive the mark of Salvation. Seek the Truth and with it comes Yahweh and Christ Jesus. Without them, you cannot expect to escape what has come in upon this planet. But children, there is still a small window of opportunity. Seek before the opportune time runs out.

Your governments will not bend their knees to Christ’s reign, so they will all be crushed. But this does not have to be any of your fate. Yahweh and Christ are awaiting your hearts to turn to them. If you are already in acceptance of the TRUTH of Yahweh, then offer those that are not, the last chance, in this spiritual war this side of Armageddon.

Children, you do not have to believe everything in order to be saved. There are people in all religions that will ultimately be raptured. As long as you are seeking Christ, and you have a good heart towards him and his Mother/Father, whether you accept all of the TRUTH at this time or not, it will not keep you out of the kingdom This is why the Word states:

Isaiah 2:4 “He will settle disputes among the nations and provide arbitration for many peoples. They will turn their swords into plows and their spears into pruning knives. Nations will not take up the sword against [other] nations, and they will never again train for war.” 

If the governments complied with Yahweh’s offer of mercy, then they too could share. The possibility is written within this Scripture. But even if they do not, Christ will set matters straight on conflicting beliefs among the survivors once the Millennium begins. There, all will come to a complete accurate knowledge of the TRUTH and Yahweh’s WAY.

2 Kings 19:31 “For a remnant will go out from Jerusalem, and survivors from Mount Zion. The zeal of the LORD of Hosts will accomplish this.” 

I’m from the remnant of the heavenly Jerusalem. You could be one of the survivors from Mount Zion, but first, you have to get there by way of the rapture.

Psalm 20:2 “May He send you help from the sanctuary and sustain you from Zion.” 

I’ve been sent to help, because I have already been to the Sanctuary of our Grand Creator. My guidance is designed to help direct you to Yahweh and Christ whom are at Mount Zion. From their Spirit, you will become sustained.

4/4/11 The Lord’s Supper – What is the requirement?

What Jesus and His disciples were eating on that occasion was the Passover meal.the commemorative supper that brought to mind the night Israel was delivered from Egyptian bondage. That memorial was commanded by God and had been observed by the Jews since the days of Moses. It was an observation connected to the Hebrew writings of the Word and to the Jews. But should Christians observe it? Is it relevant to us? Jesus was a Jew by human birth and was under the Law of Moses, so He observed it every year of His earthly life. Then, at his “Lord’s Supper” on that particularly occasion he used it to institute a new memorial that would be for Christians based on an event that was about to happen – the shedding of His own blood for the forgiveness of all of Adam and Eve’s offspring’s sins.

Luke 22:14 “The First Lord’s Supper

When the hour came, He reclined at the table, and the apostles with Him. Then He said to them, “I have fervently desired to eat this Passover with you before I suffer. For I tell you, I will not eat it again until it is fulfilled in the kingdom of God.”

That fulfillment occurred in 1908 when Satan and his angels were ousted out of Heaven and Christ came to power and the Ruling King under Yahweh’s Sovereign Authority.

“Then He took a cup, and after giving thanks, He said, “Take this and share it among yourselves. For I tell you, from now on I will not drink of the fruit of the vine until the kingdom of God comes.”

When did the Kingdom of Yahweh come forth to install Her Son as the reigning king of his promised kingdom? When Satan and his nest of vipers were ousted from Heaven. His rulership as the governing authority for mankind was celebrated on June 30th 1908 in the Royal Court of Mount Zion where the entire Consortium of holy ghosts attended the celebration of Christ’s ordination into his kingship honored and bestowed upon him by Mother Israel.

“And He took bread, gave thanks, broke it, gave it to them, and said, “This is My body, which is given for you. Do this in remembrance of Me.”

This was practiced by true Christians until Christ came into his kingship in 1908.

“In the same way He also took the cup after supper and said, “This cup is the new covenant [established by] My blood; it is shed for you.”

Fulfillment of the new covenant was therefore a SIGN that Christ had not only come into power, but that he would pass his cup to his split energy in fulfillment of Michael’s duty to administer the wrath of Yahweh upon those that remain outside of the covenant.

Jeremiah 25:15 “[ The Cup of God's Wrath ] This is what the LORD, the God of Israel, said to me: “Take this cup of the wine of wrath from My hand and make all the nations I am sending you to drink from it.”

The cup that Christ earlier drank from, now the nations of people outside of Yahweh’s Mercy and Sacrifice must be forced to drink from this cup. So, are you under compulsion to follow the guidance Christ shared at his Supper? No. But, the Supper’s meal symbolized more than mere food and drink. It symbolized that those that follow in Christ’s footsteps drink and eat from his Covenant that encompasses true Christians on a daily basis.

1 Corinthians 11:20-25 “Therefore when you come together in one place, it is not really to eat the Lord’s Supper. For in eating, each one takes his own supper ahead of others, and one person is hungry while another is drunk! Don’t you have houses to eat and drink in? Or do you look down on the church of God and embarrass those who have nothing? What should I say to you? Should I praise you? I do not praise you for this! For I received from the Lord what I also passed on to you: on the night when He was betrayed, the Lord Jesus took bread, gave thanks, broke it, and said, “This is My body, which is for you. Do this in remembrance of Me. For as often as you eat this bread and drink the cup, you proclaim the Lord’s death until He comes.” 

When did he come? Not back to the earth, but onto his kingship? And last but not least. If you are presently serving Christ and Yahweh, you are still symbolically partaking of his lifesaving blood, and you are eating his flesh (Manna from Heaven) by your faith and your works. If you are not serving Christ and Yahweh, and you are not a child in the true sense of children whom are underage and are exempt from this, you are not within the lifesaving covenant. It’s as simple as that children.

“In the same way [He] also [took] the cup, after supper, and said, “This cup is the new covenant in My blood. Do this, as often as you drink it, in remembrance of Me.” 

Do you drink from Christ’s cup of the new covenant daily by doing what you have been instructed to do? And so, if you truly are, then you are in remembrance of our Lord and Savior. Give thanks to Mother Israel, the only true Immortal thing in existence.

1 Timothy 6:16 “the only One who has immortality, dwelling in unapproachable light, whom none of mankind has seen or can see, to whom be honor and eternal might. Amen.” 

Why give thanks to Mother Israel instead of just our Lord Christ? 

Jude 1:25 “to the only God our Savior, through Jesus Christ our Lord, be glory, majesty, power, and authority before all time, now, and forever. Amen.” 

Yahweh is the TRUE SAVIOR, and Christ is Her vessel She used to delivered us.

“has immortality, dwelling in unapproachable light, ” Why unapproachable light? Because Yahweh is One of the Immortal God’s that lives outside in the ETERNITY emitting Her own LIGHT. and we are INSIDE of Yahweh.

The splitting of the Sanctuary – the split of Michael and Christ. A Savior, a destroyer. 

The Lion of Judah – Kingdom of Christ, the coming Millennium. Lion of Zion, Michael, the Wrath coming from Yahweh’s Throne. Those in the dark are not enlightened because they are not of Yahweh’s remnant.

If we are from Satan, would Satan intentionally try to bring to ruin his own kingdom, or would he try to prevent as much ruin as possible? If Satan is responsible for all of the calamitous things befalling mankind in these end times, then Satan’s kingdom would be divided and fall from within. If that was truly the case, it would not be necessary for our Mother Yahweh to crush Satan’s kingdoms on this planet – they would self-destruct. But even so, If Yahweh did not intervene, mankind is a wild card, and though Satan tries his best to make his kingdom unified, mankind would eventually cause its own destruction with no outside help, but that would also destroy the remnant, so Yahweh’s intervention is imminent in not only saving Her children, but also in ending a cycle of evil that cannot be managed even by Satan whom started the spiritual war that has brought creation out of harmony.

Matthew 12:25 “Knowing their thoughts, He told them: “Every kingdom divided against itself is headed for destruction, and no city or house divided against itself will stand.” 

Matthew 12:26 “If Satan drives out Satan, he is divided against himself. How then will his kingdom stand?” 

Is Satan divided and fighting a war within himself, or is he fighting Yahweh’s forces to try and remain afloat?

Luke 11:18 “If Satan also is divided against himself, how will his kingdom stand? For you say I drive out demons by Beelzebul.” 

Even Christ understood that Satan does not work willfully in a manner that supports Yahweh’s efforts. And so, countless Scriptures give Yahweh’s mind-set about bringing Satan’s kingdom to ruin, and mankind is caught in the middle, therefore a separation work is being performed to see who sinks with Satan, and who else is redeemable.

Reflecting the spiritual realm and not the earth: 2 Kings 19:31 “For a remnant will go out from Jerusalem, and survivors from Mount Zion. The zeal of the LORD of Hosts will accomplish this.”

A remnant from spiritual Jerusalem – being those of humankind that are salvaged. The survivors of Mount Zion are the angelic warriors that survived the cleansing of the once great Joint Command that has become the Lions of Zion. They are so named because they were re-birthed from Yahweh’s own Court of existence to do Her Will.

Psalm 2:6 “I have consecrated My King on Zion, My holy mountain.”– Yahweh took Christ onto Her holy mountain where Michael once resided. Michael no longer has a place on that holy mountain once he concludes his assigned task. But Christ’s kingdom is lessor than the rule of his Mother Israel / Yahweh, and because he is a Savior, he cannot also be a destroyer because he does not run sweet and sour. They do not mix. But Michael is warrior class, and he must finish the work he started before the Sacrifice which made him Christ Jesus. Prior to that, he was only Jesus in name, but then became the promised Christ in fulfillment. By splitting him off he was stripped of all violence that he was capable of performing and was literally transformed into a vessel of mercy and kindness.

Michael however retained his warrior attributes that reflect Father Yahweh and not Mother Israel’s attributes. Jesus is MERCY, Michael is Wrath. It’s as simple as that.

Does Jesus stand up to war for his remnant, or does Michael? 

Daniel 12:1 “At that time Michael the great prince who stands watch over your people will rise up. There will be a time of distress such as never has occurred since nations came into being until that time. But at that time all your people who are found written in the book will escape.” 

At the time of the splitting of the energy, Michael re-assumed his role as the Archangel / Great Prince of Yahweh, and this is why he is not given more prominence, because Christ is greater, and with the three it forms the unified 3 of the Ladder of Authority that placed Christ in the middle or second position. Though Michael is Great, he is lessor than Christ, and Christ is lessor than Yahweh. And with the 2nd position, Christ is the buffer for those that seek Yahweh, but Michael being in the 3rd position reveals that the wrath remains upon those that do not seek the 1st position holder by going through the 2nd, that being Christ. No one can come to Yahweh except thorough Christ Jesus, because he is the buffer. But the 3rd position of wrath is ever waiting at the door for those that are unworthy.

Jude 1:9 “Yet Michael the archangel, when he was disputing with the Devil in a debate about Moses ‘ body, did not dare bring an abusive condemnation against him, but said, “The Lord rebuke you!” 

At that time, we see that this Great Prince was Michael the Archangel, even before he came to earth as Jesus. And so, because of his position at that arrangement, he was 2nd on the Ladder of Authority. He disputed with Satan over Moses body because he was the leader second only to Yahweh of the holy angelic forces. He is again in that position. He is a warrior as this Scripture not only proves, but also reveals that a state of war has existed between Yahweh’s forces and Satan’s since the rebellions of long ago:

Daniel 10:13 “But the prince of the kingdom of Persia opposed me for 21 days. Then Michael, one of the chief princes, came to help me after I had been left there with the kings of Persia.” 

Where does the LOZ and other truths spawn forth from? 

Daniel 10:21 “No one has the courage to support me against them except Michael, your prince. However, I will tell you what is recorded in the book of truth.” 

This is not merely the Word or Biblical books left for mankind, but the BOOK OF TRUTH that resides within the Great Hall of Records. It is a library that has recorded everything going on in creation.

Satan’s forces as Seraiah stated, “Dawn and his demons fought a tireless battle to turn us early, but they could not deter us from our duty.” They minimized what was intended, but left themselves wide open for what has been put into place and will shortly occur. Michael said the key to victory is to make Satan pull the majority of his forces from around the globe to try and halt a single event, and then he will later weep at the LOZ’s feints to divert him from much larger catastrophes lying just ahead.

Everything was choreographed in ancient times for the end times. 

It was all recorded within our Mother Yahweh’s Word to mankind. Look to the past to see the future.

The Sacred Garden of Eden. What has been will occur again. Where does the concept of the RAPTURE originate from? The EXODUS from Egypt.

Dictionary: “exodus >noun a mass departure of people, especially emigrants.

-ORIGIN Greek exodos, from hodos ‘way’.” A MASS DEPARTURE. You must depart from where you presently reside (this planet) to receive the PROMISE Yahweh has declared belongs to Her Remnant. Dictionary: “emigrant >noun a person who emigrates.” Emigrates for what reason? Dictionary: “emigrate >verb leave one’s own country in order to settle permanently in another.

-DERIVATIVES emigration >noun.

-ORIGIN Latin emigrare, from migrare ‘migrate’.”

A permanent move from one place to another. The move we speak of is to the Kingdom of Christ Jesus. But even so, Yahweh owns all things in Her creation, so, this old earth will be renewed and again overtaken by the Kingdom of Christ as it merges with the spiritual earth and is again transformed into a paradise planet for harmonious habitation. But first renovation must be completed, and if you were a renter in a building that was infested with vermin, you would not remain in that building while an exterminator exterminated the infestation of unwelcome pests. You would leave for a time until the building was transformed into a place of orderly and cleansed living conditions once again.

Lot and his family were an example of what it took to get them quickly out of a time of judgment that brought with it Yahweh’s Wrath. Holy angelic intervention with those holy deputies leading the hand-grasping way. Taken by and in hand they were led out of a death dealing situation. To have remained would have meant sharing in the coming Wrath of destruction. Why that was a perilous situation for Lot and his family was twofold. Death as an execution by Yahweh is eternal death for those killed. Secondly, the angels made certain Satan nor his demons interfered in Yahweh’s Will to remove Lot and his family. But mankind has evil tendencies, and so Lot’s wife succumbed without Satan’s interference, and the end result was the same as if Satan had physically turned her head to look back upon her old home place. Will you look back upon this dying society on earth and be caught up in the Wrath of destruction destined for this generation, or will you keep looking forward and exit without looking back when and if your time is allotted to leave?

Genesis 4:7 “If you do right, won’t you be accepted? But if you do not do right, sin is crouching at the door. Its desire is for you, but you must master it.” 

What is the door the Word speaks of? It is the exit out of a doomed world. Sin, not just Satan, is crouching at the door to keep you here where sin is nurtured. Ask yourself: Do you love this world – or perhaps just your Country? If so, you love sin. Sin is the fabric this world is made up of. If it were not true, then Yahweh would not be cleansing this planet just as She did in Noah’s time when him and his family entered the Ark. Noah and his family were not taken in hand by holy angels and led into that sanctioned vessel of safety. But as things progressively became worse on the earth, Lot and his family’s example revealed the urgency of escaping our Creator’s Wrath with hands on guidance. The urgency today is even greater in magnitude. This planet will be literally cleansed with fire. Nothing more than human ashes and bones will be revealed as the spiritual earth and the physical earth are later merged. The bones will be a testament against those that loved a sinful world. Or will you be a new citizen of Christ’s Kingdom?

Ephesians 2:19 “So then you are no longer foreigners and strangers, but fellow citizens with the saints, and members of God’s household,” 

At present, many of you are still foreigners (still trapped in sinful thoughts and ways,) but if you will fully open your eyes, you will recognize the truth of your dire situation. Mastery over your sinful desires and cultivation of your heart towards Yahweh and Christ could be your last chance out of this hell on earth.

Yahweh is a God of love, but know this foremost: She will not break Her own laws. Her laws are SUPREME. She abides by them, and you can be thankful that She is also a good and insightful lawyer as well,

Numbers 19:2 (“This is the legal statute that the LORD has commanded:…”) because through the study of Her own laws She found a WAY to redeem each of you from sin that carries the penalty of eternal death. Her Sacrifice was great, even greater than Christ Jesus’ Sacrifice, because She was without Her Beloved and only-begotten Son for those days and nights he remained in death – nonexistence where he knew nothing and felt nothing- and I know from personal experience that the Mountain of Zion flowed down tears abundantly until his resurrection (reanimation back to life.) Yahweh suffered then, and She has suffered to a lessor degree since her fallen angelic hosts and mankind fell from Her grace into the crouches of sin. And even Satan, the original first sinner – not the creator of sin, but a willful participant and cultivator of sin- whom fell from perfection as not only a liar, but a betrayer, which made our Mother very sad indeed. She had not betrayed him. But the then Dawn Lucifer, he was so enamored with our Mother that he sought to be exactly like Her, except that his thoughts were twisted, because She never lies and is not deceptive with Her family. But he told a lie and with it carried deception. This made him the opposite of our Grand Creator, and ever since that ill fated day for the Chief Adversary whom became known to us as Satan the Devil (= Adversary to Yahweh’s Throne of Authority and a resister of Her laws) he has been trying to duplicate Her Rule with humankind as his lowly subjects. But to be successful, he has continued to lie and deceive mankind. Yahweh gives free will, but Satan seeks to withhold that from his own family and has spent many many years trying to force his brand of freedom onto a world of people that could not attain peace and harmony even if Satan was out of the picture, and this is why mankind cannot guide its own footsteps. Wouldn’t it have been sad if all of our Mother’s heavenly family had betrayed Her – like Satan whom was the first, and Judas Iscariot betrayed Jesus as the example of betrayal?

Lamentations 1:2 “She weeps aloud during the night, with tears on her cheeks. There is no one to offer her comfort, [not one] from all her lovers. All her friends have betrayed her; they have become her enemies.” 

Who could console our Mother for the Unselfish Sacrifice She made with Her Son? No one. But there was a Prince that took pity and entered our realm, and because of Mother’s tears he vowed to help bring Her reality back into harmony. Now you might understand why his similarities are parallel in likeness with Michael’s. Like him, we of the holy family have all taken an Sacred Oath to our Mother’s Throne and Her Authority, vowing to see this spiritual war to its climax and to continue to render sacred service for eternity.

2/7/11 Ashkelon UFO Sighting

Joe: It was the Ashkelon’s crafts that NASA filmed, Not ours children.

Deborah: That was a lot of crafts. Here is the video Joe is speaking of for those who have not seen it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z3D3nhnqUUc&feature=player_embedded

Regina: Thanks for the update Joe.

Joe: Now that the try for a forced entry has ended, Michael has ordered that a corridor be opened for their entry under one condition. All Ashkelons that seek to join Satan’s side must come through at the same time. There will be no leaving prior to Armageddon once they are permitted within the confinement area of Magog.

Regina: I have a few questions that I need help with, if you have the time. 1) Do other creations exist on the same spiritual plane that we do or are they separate? 2) Is there any word on how many of them there are? 3) Do they have a time limit in which they have to respond?

Joe: Some exist on both planes, and some can transgress to either of the planes at will.

Yes there is a fixed number of the amount of intelligent lifeforms, but Michael has prohibited me from giving you that information. He said the want to know is inquisitiveness and not a need to know. Sorry child, I cannot go beyond his authority.

On how Mother is dealing with the other lifeforms in this spiritual war, it is my understanding that they will all be under Christ’s kingdom Ruler-ship and have been advised of that. If there is dissension among any of the others, that has not been brought to my attention. I’m not even certain if Michael would feel it was warranted to inform me. He is primarily concerned with this ministry continuing to preach the good news and sound the warning of the coming wrath. I’m sorry child that I can’t be more informative.

Regina: No please don’t be sorry, I completely understand. Thank you for answering what you could. We are definitely on a need to know basis. I struggled with whether or not I should even ask.

We’ll keep preaching.

Joe: I just spoke with Liddia, and she said that Seraiah might be giving information in the area I cannot divulge sometime in the future. I suppose they might have a plan to release more about the other creations on some kind of timetable. But I will say this because I pondered this myself:

The LOZ would be bogged down in a long lasting conflict if the rest of the creations followed Ashkelon’s lead. That would mean a protracted length of time added to this present spiritual war before it could be settled. And since that would cause the timetable to be offset again and prophecy to not come at their prescribed times, Mother would be forced to alter time and events again. So I believe the others are presently in harmony. It is possible that others will later go astray and be dealt with after the Millennium at the final Judgment.

Regina: Understood – a time for everything and everything in its time. Thank you for sharing your thoughts. I really value being able to talk with you from time to time.

2/22/11 New Zealand Earthquake

Joe: Wouldn’t it be nice if New Zealand accepted Christ’s Ruler-ship and became the first nation to be shielded from any further bowls of punishment and would not be subjected to the wrath? All they need do is comply with the LOZ’s offer.

Yahweh’s message there, was that they are not teaching the TRUTH about Her or Christ. In other past earthquakes elsewhere, idols have been knocked over, and people buried alive for practicing Voodoo and other false religious rites. Yahweh is speaking through Her Powerful Right Arm via Her natural arsenal.

3/8/11 UFO in Moscow on March 06 2011

Seraiah: Numbers 24:8 “God brought him out of Egypt; He is like the horns of a wild ox for them. He will feed on enemy nations and gnaw their bones; he will strike [them] with his arrows.”

First the deliverance from bondage of dawn-ho’s empire, and then HELL ON EARTH for those remaining.

Deuteronomy 32:23 “I will pile disasters on them; I will use up My arrows against them.” 

How do they like the disasters so far? 135 mile an hour tornadoes are nothing compared to the planned hail stones just ahead.

Watch for when the lights turn vertical.

http://img28.imageshack.us/i/1008115loz2.jpg/

Deuteronomy 32:42 “I will make My arrows drunk with blood while My sword devours flesh— the blood of the slain and the captives, the heads of the enemy leaders.”

Here you go kids; crop and lighten it for yourselves:

http://img585.imageshack.us/i/1008115loz1a.jpg/

Psalm 7:13 “He has prepared His deadly weapons; He tips His arrows with fire.”

Joe: Just remember children that this will all eventually culminate into peace and harmony. If we all liked what is happening to those that are not worthy, then it would mean we have no natural feelings. But even our Mother and Christ regret that this must be done. That is why Mother offered Her Only Begotten Son as the atonement for Adam and Eve’s sin, but there must eventually be a cleansing, and though it makes us cringe at the disasters and death toll, it is because of this feeling that we fear the One bringing calamity upon those that will not obey Her Word. It does not give us satisfaction that many must perish for lack of acceptance of Yahweh’s Truth and dire warnings. We just must accept what cannot be changed for those that refuse to listen and change their course in life.

3/19/11 The image of the Beast is rising up

Joe: The Beast from the Earth

“11 Then I saw another beast coming up out of the earth; he had two horns like a lamb, but he sounded like a dragon. 12 He exercises all the authority of the first beast on his behalf and compels the earth and those who live on it to worship the first beast, whose fatal wound was healed. 13 He also performs great signs, even causing fire to come down from heaven to earth before people. 14 He deceives those who live on the earth because of the signs that he is permitted to perform on behalf of the beast,”

One came out of the sea, and the other out of the earth.

The beast that came up from the earth is the United States. Old Rome fell to the sword of its day. It has arisen out of the sea. It is a monster. The Leviathan.

3/21/11 The Bloody Rise in Quest of World Dominance

Joe: The world’s jigsaw puzzle, involving all of the intelligent creations, and with France whom is a dominate military power for the New Roman Empire – consisting of the European Union’s family making up the New Rome – and the United States being in the background and backing the New Rome as the Beast that is falling from power, you can piece the jigsaw puzzle together as things are now taking or falling into place piece by piece. Know this children: All things, including headlines, spoken words, numbers, sounds – regardless of what makes them, they are all part of the puzzle that brings forth the answers to what is happening. As an example, Reactor 3′s failure in Japan signifies Yahweh’s unified effort of the LOZ to continue the dead zone of Japan. Everything presently going on in the visible material realm is an intricate piece of the puzzle that ties in and fits in to what is the over all picture of the rise and fall of Dawn Lucifer Satan the Devil’s adventures over the last 6000 years of his rule. He is copying the LOZ by forming a joint alliance that prospers his rising power in quest of world dominance. All things reflect other things. Each county that is rioting against their rulers and wanting change of government reflects the individual fall of each nation on this planet as Christ’s kingdom draws ever near to coming into full power.

E.U. took the lead, not USA.

“Britain and France are pushing for the U.N. to create a no-fly zone over Libya, and while the U.S. may be persuaded to sign on, such a move is unlikely to win the backing of veto-wielding Security Council members Russia and China, which traditionally object to such steps as infringements on national sovereignty.”

http://www.chinapost.com.tw/internationa….ya-official.htm

3/22/11 More on China

Joe: China, behind closed doors, working out a colossal plan that is an invasion of the United States. It includes the millions of Chinese troops that are presently stationed in Central and South America, including Cuba and other of their allies.

This is a case of Satan’s human element not following his lead. They – the Chinese want to end the United States colonialism and their deceptive tactics that are for gaining the world oil reserves. War is again on the horizon.

This is effecting the chess war board. The holy side is making some kind of new moves to adapt to the latest development.

China might be in for the next big disaster. I’m not certain how Michael will counter this latest human pawn move by humankind.

If this is not countered, its conceivable the USA would retaliate with a nuclear strike against China’s homeland. That scenario would derail Mother’s plan for Satan to take his place as the Antichrist.

Deborah: Interesting synchronicity. Information about Chinese troops in Mexico is making the rounds again on the web. Hmmmm…..

http://vaticproject.blogspot.com/2011/03….rs-food-to.html

This is from searches I did on the topic. I don’t believe the Chinese are in Mexico without the USA knowing. Satellite technology would reveal one way or the other.

http://vaticproject.blogspot.com/2011/03….-confirmed.html

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t23UhGnrj5w&feature=related

Joe: China is viewing the USA as a parasite on humankind. They feel justified in crushing the United States to end its own type of terrorism it spreads across the globe against any nation it takes issue with. But please note children that the USA did not attack Iran when it was being brutal to its people. The USA was trying to avoid a conflict that would result in a nuclear war with its (Iran’s) ally. But now they are at odds with them anyway, and very deeply in debt to them as well.

3/26/11 The Next Large Earthquake is About to Hit

Joe: It will be compared to Japan’s. Thus far, Satan has defended the USA against a major quake. The location of the next quake will follow a past sighting of the LOZ crafts over that area.

3/27/11 USA rapidly moving toward Sovereign default

Joe: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sovereign_default

The European Union will become the largest debt holder of U.S. in the future.

Those that are manipulating not only the monetary supply of the world, they are also engaged in manipulating the people of this planet to covertly maneuver the New World Order into place so that they enslave all of mankind to be their worker bees in a world order of overseers that views mankind as slaves to the New World Order. This is Satan’s answer to making his twisted way work in a unified peace. But there will be no peace on any foundation other than that of Christ’s Jesus whom founded the world as Michael the firstborn Son of Yahweh, the ancient Israel Mother of all creation.

Isaiah 28:16 ‘Therefore the Lord GOD said: “Look, I have laid a stone in Zion, a tested stone, a precious cornerstone, a sure foundation; the one who believes will be unshakable.” 

Revelation 17:8 “The beast that you saw was, and is not, and is about to come up from the abyss and go to destruction. Those who live on the earth whose names were not written in the book of life from the foundation of the world will be astounded when they see the beast that was, and is not, and will be present [again].” 

The beast that was Michael, yet he is not, because he is part of Christ that was on the earth, yet he is not Christ, but he is present again as Michael the destroyer angel that takes away the evil of creation.

Hebrews 9:26 “Otherwise, He would have had to suffer many times since the foundation of the world. But now He has appeared one time, at the end of the ages, for the removal of sin by the sacrifice of Himself. “ 

Michael split off Christ for removal of sin, yet Christ atoned for sin of those repentant. and his other half removes it. Use insight and all will be clear in your minds. All things are bound up within the Word for those with insight. So who’s foundation, and not Satan’s is destined for the future?

1 Corinthians 3:11 “because no one can lay any other foundation than what has been laid—that is, Jesus Christ.”

“by the sacrifice of Himself.” Michael sacrifices himself in order to accomplish the removal of sin. This is not atonement. It is removal. Removal is ever present where sin is concerned, but atonement came with mercy shown by Yahweh. Removal comes forth by instrument of Yahweh’s choice, shard by the LOZ whom are cleansed of blood guilt by Michael’s sacrifice to return to the pit with those found unworthy of Yahweh’s mercy.

3/27/11 Watch the news daily as things swiftly fall into place

Joe: The end time is in full swing, and as Christ noted, just as it was in Noah’s day, they took no notice until they were swept away. But like Noah and his family children, we are looking to our Mother and Christ for the Ark of safety. She will not leave us to share in this world’s destruction.

Sadly I must say, the Japanese people are doomed. They are being heavily radiated and more earthquakes on the way.

Look to Japan, because it is what is in store for the rest of the world.

OMG – Liddia said not to be out when its raining. The radiation will be spread by the weather, and the radiation will be in the rain that jet streams from Japan to the USA.

She also said the ocean will give its testimony soon about the radiated water as it moves through the currents and affects the sea life.

3/29/11 “Huge seismic burst jolts the Pacific?”

Joe: http://theextinctionprotocol.wordpress.com/2011/03/25/huge-seismic-burst

Children, I believe this was associated with the LOZ that are and have been trying to bring forth a tremendous sea quake in the middle of the Pacific Ocean. A colossal wave that spirals out in all directions is their intent. Of course though, it is not the demons  So they are battling it out. And from what Jake told me, the shadow arm of the U.S. government is prepping to use lasers against the LOZ in the depths of the earth by firing where Satan gives depth and locations of the LOZ in various underground regions of this planet. Their lasers are set to destroy positive energy.

If they follow through, that will be the beasts reply to Mother Yahweh’s offer of mercy in exchange for governmental surrender.

1 Samuel 2:10 “Those who oppose the LORD will be shattered; He will thunder in the heavens against them. The LORD will judge the ends of the earth. He will give power to His king; He will lift up the horn of His anointed.” 

Michael is the horn. He leads the LOZ. The USA, if they take this action will show they openly oppose Mother’s offer of mercy, and Michael will withdraw the offer for surrender early.

Philippians 2:10 so that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow— of those who are in heaven and on earth and under the earth —” 

The key is “under the earth.” The race that’s been living beneath the earth is now about to become involved… in this spiritual war in all likelihood because of the planets upheaval. They had remained neutral and were willing to follow the WAY and not become involved with the spiritual war, but now things have changed and they are taking sides with neither the holy or the evil.. If they decide to surface, they will wage a war against both the LOZ and the demons and mankind:( Their underground kingdom is being rocked by the LOZ (and also from the two factions whom are fighting – LOZ and demons) whether intentional or not in their (LOZ’s) efforts to punish the topside world of creation. Thus far they have not engaged the LOZ or the demons in their own domain.

And yes children, there is a race under Mars, and other planets that the topside inhabitants were destroyed off of. The depths of planets are considered kingdoms of a different variety. And during the Great Flood, they were not affected because they live in a fiery domain and are a completely different species that dwell in planets, although none are related to one another in genesis . In likeness though, they are very much alike as fire beings.

Regina: I read in the news yesterday that scientists are going to drill 5 miles down into the earth. No coincidence I’m sure.

Joe: Well, I’m surprised that the underground dwellers have not attacked mankind in the past for nuclear underground blasts. If they enter the war, they will set the topside ablaze. The drilling operation might spark more than they are ready for on the top. Satan has probably kept their existence a secret from his beast, hoping to not have a confrontation with those that dwell in the earth.

Revelation 5:3 “But no one in heaven or on earth or under the earth was able to open the scroll or even to look in it.” 

Revelation mentions them and the scroll children. Mother must have expected their involvement.

Revelation 5:13 “I heard every creature in heaven, on earth, under the earth, on the sea, and everything in them say: Blessing and honor and glory and dominion to the One seated on the throne, and to the Lamb, forever and ever!” 

Evidently, not all of the underground dwellers will become involved. Some are recorded as giving blessing and honor and glory and their dominion to Yahweh and Christ.

Giving dominion means all creations wherever they might dwell, give their entirety willingly over to our Mother and Christ’s rule.

Like an electric cell, you don’t handle it. And that is why there is a separation from Yahweh’s fire creations and those that are flesh and blood. They are not meant to mix with one another. Coming in contact would be disastrous. Each to his own domain. One thing for one existence, and another for its existence, but all belong to Yahweh, just like those that live in hot stars and migrate to another as one dies out. It is part of their natural cycle of change.

Like the oceans of earth that presently team with diverse sea life, but are now dying, the expanse can be compared to the seas. because it too teams with all sorts of life. Yahweh is not limited to any one species. She likes diversity. That is born out in the creation of this planet and all that exists upon and within it.

5/10/11 The air battle in the physical realm is coming soon

Bebai: The United States will lead the joint effort against the LOZ. Satan has advised the USA to fire negative energy laser beams into all new tornadoes and even the threatening clouds that spawn them when the opportunity avails itself.

Liddia just informed me the U.S. will be testing Satan’s advise on tornado-control with military planes that are already equipped with long range laser weapons. The tornado’s ferocity is heightened by the LOZ members that add the extra power and size coupled with its natural spinning motion, and also alter its direction of movement across a given target area.

In reality, the LOZ are the true target and not merely the tornadoes. Kill the added power source and you lessen the damage that would otherwise be catastrophic over that of a nature driven whirlwind.

Seraiah is due to return soon with word on whether or not our Creator might be stripped of Her powers. Yahweh’s dedication to Her laws, and the other God’s taking Her to task with the Spiral, it could change everything. As Joe says, “We shall see.”

One last thing before I exit. Next report of a space distortion, or labeled as a vortex, will be reported over North Texas. There will soon be a bridge that will be temporary, but it will join this reality to the God’s reality that is known as Lady Aveena.

5/10/11 The coming epidemics

Bebai: The coming epidemics from tainted water will begin to spread shortly. Hospitals will be overwhelmed by the sheer number of people that are infected. Boiling water is still the best defense against water born diseases, and should also be boiled to bathe with.

People living in flooded areas should follow this precaution.

The animal kingdom will also suffer from the effects. Those with pets in the infected areas should boil their drinking water also. Pets that are permitted free range will become infected.

Livestock will also be at risk from the new strains of bacteria that are in the toxic brew if permitted to drink the tainted water. The Antijaboks have done their work. You are now forewarned of what to expect. One other insight. The underground aquifers are also tainted. Well water is no longer safe in flooded areas even after the waters recede. Be cautious of rainwater, it is also tainted, and what it is tainted with will eventually affect all surface and underground water. No amount of boiling will make it safe.

Soon, Yahweh will be directing the animal kingdom – as they begin to starve – towards humankind as a food source. Those once preyed upon will become the predator. Fear of mankind will be lifted from their instinct and survival will become their driving force.

5/11/11 The next move by the LOZ on the war board

Bebai: The LOZ are in preparation to challenge the world powers. When the world of people learns of the true intent of the LOZ, Satan will become a shoe-in for his next character part spoken of in the Word. Once the LOZ lift back the veil, this site will become of key interest, simply because the message was given here beforehand. The LOZ are planning to down military aircraft from every nation that challenges their presence over the air space of their countries. To destroy all missiles and their sites when fired upon.

5/24/11 Satan and the United States. His dedication to his prized child.

Bebai: August 25, 1814, a date to keep in mind. On that date, Satan formed a devastating tornado and inflicted more harm to the British army than they suffered in the battle that set the White House ablaze. That event marked direct intervention of the human pawns by the evil side. Satan also is recorded in the Book of Job where he formed a similar tornado to kill Job’s children.

Using nature as arsenal to fight enemies – it is the norm for the spiritual war. Just as Satan personally fought for his prized child’s survival from the British invader, our Creator Yahweh does likewise for Her remnant of children left on planet earth.

Collateral damage: Just as Yahweh might inadvertently kill some of Her own children in an horrific event such as flood or tornado or other natural disaster brought to bear by Her forces, this is also the case in demonic intervention to aid its human allies:

“Less than a day after the attack began, a sudden tornado passed through part of the city, killing British troops and American civilians alike, tossing cannons, and putting out most of the fires.[15] This forced the British troops to return to their ships, many of which were badly damaged by the storm, and so the actual occupation of Washington lasted about 26 hours. President Madison and the rest of the government quickly returned to the city.” http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Burning_of_Washington

Bebai: This was shared because of the deaths in tornadic activity. It was to reveal that nature is used by both sides, even though Mother Yahweh is the Mother of the natural order.

Bebai: Ministers. look closely. What do you see in the Peruvian pic? Here is the most obvious. Now look for what else is within.

Regina:

Bebai: Peru is a key element in these end times. Look to and keep a close watch on the stone structures of Peru. Especially the stone carvings

Regina: Bebai, does it have to do with what was will be? That’s the initial feeling I get when viewing these pics, but I’m not sure I’m on target.

Bebai: Yes Regina. The end of a great empire that will be pushed over and become a ruin from an alien invader. How many times is “aliens” used in the Word? Not aliens in the sense mankind notes them, but nonetheless alien of this planet. Look to the insect world. Yahweh makes note of the ants. They are not only a colony that builds and nurtures, but are also invaders that kill and enslave their enemies. All material worlds are set up on a SURVIVAL concept. It starts from the largest animal down to the insect kingdom. Conquering and conquest were not the creations of Satan, but are a part of all of the material plane of existence.

Bebai: How did the ancient Israelites gain the then Promised Land? They were alien to that land. They crossed over and did what? They were a great army. The LOZ cross over and do what? We too are a great army. Who could turn back that ancient army? Who can turn us back? No one. Like them, we are backed by the Ancient One.

Bebai: Yahweh depicted in Peruvian stone. Please note that She is the tallest figure, which means She is above all other gods.

Bebai: A closer look at Her Self-carved figure. Located in Markawasi Peru. The Sacred Valley, it also gives revelations. Read about it here:

http://www.crystalinks.com/incaruins.html Scientists should be taking energy measurements around the globe at all known geometrically aligned sites. They would find a very large unified reading on their scale.

Bebai: Note the differences since the earlier photo was taken.

Bebai: Everything in creation is interconnected. The doorway to the new earth exists in Peru, but you must have the golden orb to activate it. That doorway leads to many dimensions, and some are other worlds of the eternal gods. It was necessary to lock it because of the opposing forces.

Regina: I had a vision of a golden orb a couple years ago, with an eye in the middle of it.

Bebai: That accurately describes it. Here is an online site depicting the doorway, though presently sealed off from entry. http://www.onelight.com/hollow/peruvianstargate.htm

Nehemiah 7:1 “[ The Exiles Return ] When the wall had been rebuilt and I had the doors installed, the gatekeepers, singers, and Levites were appointed.”

Ponder.

Nehemiah 7:3 I said to them, “Do not open the gates of Jerusalem until the sun is hot, and let the doors be shut and securely fastened while the guards are on duty. Station the citizens of Jerusalem as guards, some at their posts and some at their homes.”

Psalm 24:7 “Lift up your heads, you gates! Rise up, ancient doors! Then the King of glory will come in.”

Proverbs 8:34 “Anyone who listens to me is happy, watching at my doors every day, waiting by the posts of my doorway.” 

The doorway is the one depicted in Peru.

Isaiah 26:20 “Go, my people, enter your rooms and close your doors behind you. Hide for a little while until the wrath has passed.” 

Ponder: John 14:2 “In My Father’s house are many dwelling places; if not, I would have told you. I am going away to prepare a place for you.” 

That doorway leads to many dwelling places just inside this reality alone.

Pay attention to the lines that cross each other and form chess board squares. Can you guess why?

Regina: Is it the center of the Spiritual War Chessboard?

Bebai: YES!! It truly is a gateway to the lands of the eternal gods. Satan abused it as Dawn Lucifer, and probably communicated with many of the God’s in their domains.

The EYE of the golden orb represents the eyes that watch from eternity. All is a spectacle to the other gods. Having that energized eye is the permissible access to their domains. But the door also leads off to other dimensions Yahweh has established in Her own domain. One single doorway leads to many other doors once you enter.

Regina: A while back there was a Crop Circle depicting a long hallway, and the floor was a checkerboard pattern and all down the hallway were doors – referring to this?

Here’s the drawing I did of the Golden Orb I saw

Bebai: Looks very similar Regina.

Regina: I also had a very vivid dream several years ago that has stuck with me, and in it, I entered through a doorway and stepped onto a plane (it felt like another planet) where above me I could see what appeared to be a night sky with millions of multi-colored stars. I was awestruck with how beautiful it was and I recall that I could also feel the movement or rotation either of what was around me, or what I was standing on. I don’t know where I was, or if it might also coincide with what you’ve shared here today, but felt I should mention it also just in case it does.

Bebai: http://www.thelivingmoon.com/42stargate/03files/Amaru_Maru.html

Azarus: The Peruvian Door. Look for the LOZ member guarding the doorway. He is to your right.

Proverbs 8:34 “Anyone who listens to me is happy, watching at my doors every day, waiting by the posts of my doorway.

“Dictionary: “post1 >noun 1 a long, sturdy, upright piece of timber or metal used as a support or a marker. 2 (the post) a starting post or winning post. >verb 1 display (a notice) in a public place. 2 announce or publish. 3 achieve or record (a particular score or result).

-ORIGIN Latin postis ‘doorpost’.”

MARKER in the case of the Peruvian door.

Job 24:2 “The wicked displace boundary markers. They steal a flock and provide pasture for [it].” 

Satan nor any other outside Yahweh’s family are able to steal this doorway – a MARKER – because it is under guard. Satan nor any other intruder can steal your safe passage off this planet as long as you maintain your integrity to Yahweh and Christ. The door is sealed to keep out those that are unworthy. None but those worthy may pass through that wormhole at the time its opened. It is reserved for those that do not leave on the rapture vessels, but are nonetheless entitled to salvation. The last to be redeemed off this planet before the Sun scorches all living things to a cinder.

Azarus: Psalm 29:1 “[ The Voice of the LORD ] A Davidic psalm. Give the LORD— you heavenly beings — give the LORD glory and strength.” 

We not only give Mother glory, but also strength by our works. Above, Liddia fires a volume of bursts from the Sun at the earth.

When you look around you what do you see? When you watch the news what do you see the most? Have you heard about the economy? Have you searched the news for any large cases of diseases? How about doing a search of recent news articles that would correlate with the pouring out of Father’s wrath? There are tons of things out there that we don’t have room to fit into this newsletter. So when you have a free moment how about doing a search to see what you find.

Revelation 16:1-3

The First Bowl

1 Then I heard a loud voice from the

sanctuary saying to the seven angels, “Go

and pour out the seven bowls of God’s wrath

on the earth.” 2 The first went and poured out

his bowl on the earth, and severely painful

sores broke out on the people who had the

mark of the beast and who worshiped his

image.

The Second Bowl

3 The second poured out his bowl into the sea.

It turned to blood like a dead man’s, and all

life in the sea died.

Nahum 1:5-7

5 The mountains quake before Him,

and the hills melt;

the earth trembles at His presence—the world

and all who live in it. 6 Who can withstand

His indignation?

Who can endure His burning anger? His

wrath is poured out like fire,

even rocks are shattered before Him.

Destruction of Nineveh

7 The LORD is good,

a stronghold in a day of distress;

He cares for those who take refuge in Him.

Heed The Warnings, Recognize The Signs

By Minister Deborah

Proverbs 24:12 If you say, “But we didn’t know about this,” won’t He who weighs hearts consider it? Won’t He who protects your life know? Won’t He repay a person according to his work?

Each and every natural disaster, uprising, financial collapse, strategic positioning of governmental power that is occurring now is part of a domino effect, each leading to the fulfillment of promises and prophecy. These include Armageddon, the cleansing of the earth of everything contaminated by sin, and the beginning of Christ’s Millennial Kingdom Rule. Most importantly is the vindication of Yahweh’s good name. Yahweh did not start this war, but She WILL finish it.

“There will be no peace on Earth until My

Son’s Kingdom. I will crush every kingdom

now standing and rock the earth off it’s

foundation. I Yahweh will destroy every

enemy to My throne, and who can stop Me?

Who can turn back My anger? No one.”

Yahweh

Prepare your hearts, minds and homes for the worsening state of the world. Understand that the ONLY hope for mankind is Christ. Realize that NO ONE left on the earth will survive the coming invasion of Yahweh’s elite angelic warriors, The Lions of Zion. The ONLY way to survive is to be included in the rapture of the remnant.

How to Survive until you are raptured to sanctuary

Shared by Minister Regina

Group with trusted friends and family members. Live in one dwelling capable of providing the necessities for all members, preferably a farmhouse outside of any of the large cities. Purchase a wide-band battery powered radio, and a large supply of canned goods and water in sealed containers. Break the surplus canned food and water up into different parcels and then place in heavy plastic bags and tie them off and bury them around the property in different locations. This will prevent the total loss of the entire stash if you should fall victim to marauders. Take what prevention you feel is necessary to safeguard your group when law and order are not forth coming. Then wait things out. If you are members of the remnant – even if just one single person, you will be rescued by the LOZ. Don’t wait until the time is at hand. Gather your groups for a meeting and make preparations ahead of time. If you have followed this ministry’s past advice, you will be even safer if you followed the steps they laid out. Preferably a location that is hidden from view and near and open water source. The clock is ticking – don’t let this opportune time slip past you without planning and implementing for what is just ahead. Below are some links to sites where you can obtain supplies and additional knowledge:

It is available in .pdf form for free via www.chosen.weebly.com and will be updated monthly.

The Journey Continues

Below is a sneak-peek of each of the books included in Chosen, Book Two

Regina

There are many days in which I feel as though I must stop and focus and just try to get through the next 24 hours, some days even just the next hour, and then that day passes and the next arrives and passes, and arrives until all of a sudden a year has passed, and then two and four and now five. It’s odd how time can seem to pass so slowly and quickly at the same time. Many of these days, the good and the not-so-good, I will recount here and many have receded to the deeper recesses of my mind but what I’m able to remember, I share with you here honestly and openly…

Johanna

On October 2nd or 3rd of 2005, I was on this website were there were camera’s placed through out peoples homes who claimed that they were being haunted. I have always liked supernatural things. I believed in ghost, angels and demons. I started talking to this woman and asked her how she see’s the things that she does. I also told her that I believed in spirit guides. She told me that she couldn’t help me with the guides but that she knew of a website where I could find some answers. She sent me the link to a forum by the name of “Beyond This World”. After looking at a few things and noticing that they had psychic exercises I decided to sign up to become a member…

Deborah

Word came to us toward the end of May 2010 that we were to begin documenting our experiences ending where Chosen left off. Each Minister is to produce a “book” of our own that will be incorporated into Chosen. Its a little daunting to say the least. I have not been journaling as Regina has been (it isn’t something I naturally do). Also, I actually do not have a very good memory. But I trust that those things that Father wishes us to recall we will. We have been guided by Michael to read the book of ACTS to guide us. It seems to focus on events that show times of strong guidance from/interactions with Holy Spirit…

Elisha

In 2006, I was able to reconnect with a long time friend. I found out she had co-authored a book. Considering how we had grown up together I was interested in the fact that she had written one and wanted to read it myself. She, Regina, sent me the book and some more details about it. I found out it was a lot to take in and did so in baby steps with much prayer and guidance from Father. I was blessed to freely ask any question of Regina and felt comfortable in doing so. I read the book with an open mind and while some of it confirmed my deepest suspicions other information provided was such an eye-opener…

2/10/11 Is Satan the true benefactor of his human family, or is he the direct cause of its inflictions?

Joe: Though by default mankind is within Satan’s family, is it Satan that causes the infirmities that plague humans? Is it reasonable to believe Satan works against himself, or is the enmity Yahweh has with the human offspring of Adam and Eve what befalls humankind?

Exodus 4:11 “The LORD said to him, “Who

made the human mouth? Who makes him

mute or deaf, seeing or blind? Is it not I, the

LORD?”

No, it’s not Satan that humans should blame. It is by the hand of Yahweh that all sinful effects are administered. And even Yahweh’s remnant under the Sacrifice of mercy through Christ Jesus are not immune.

Ecclesiastes 9:11 (Holman Christian

Standard Bible) The Limitations of Wisdom

“Again I saw under the sun that the race is

not to the swift, or the battle to the strong, or

bread to the wise, or riches to the discerning,

or favor to the skillful; rather, time and chance

happen to all of them. “

That’s everyone including the remnant. But as our Grand Mother states, with all that you acquire, acquire wisdom, and then you will come to understand why you must suffer now, just as our Mother has been long suffering. If She must suffer, and Christ suffered, then who are we to be immune? What of the converts? Where do they presently stand as rebellious to Her Throne?

Numbers 17:10 “The LORD told Moses,

“Put Aaron’s rod back in front of the

testimony to be kept as a sign for the rebels, so

that you may put an end to their complaints

before Me, or else they will die.”

Satan and his fallen angels and all the converts are deemed rebels to Israel’s Throne of Authority. The converts, except for those that have sinned against Israel’s Holy Spirit are presently under the rod of the testimony that provides foe Ransom if they end their complaints and cross on over to our Mother’s side. Like with those humans still on the visible plane, the opportune time has not yet run out, but it is quickly dwindling.

2/14/11 “Ramat Ha’Golan: So beautiful. So strategic.

Joe: “Ramat Ha’Golan: So beautiful. So strategic. One piece of the region’s jigsaw puzzle blossoms, its natives stateless but, with all, hoping for peace. In this disputed land, secluded waterfalls are bound by minefields, flower-filled hills are etched by tank treads, and dairy farms border live-fire zones, close enough that the ratta-ttat of automatic weapons accompanies the mooing of cows. The dark [...]“ This is Satan’s world. The one Mother Israel promises is not that of the people that took Her personal female name for a short span of time and failed Her by rejecting the Savior She sent. It is under Christ’s Millennial Rule children that true peace and harmony will prevail.

Revelation 7:17 “Because the Lamb who is at

the center of the throne will shepherd them;

He will guide them to springs of living

waters, and God will wipe away every tear

from their eyes.”

Revelation 21:4 “He will wipe away every

tear from their eyes. Death will exist no

longer; grief, crying, and pain will exist no

longer, because the previous things have

passed away.”

Psalm 17:7 “Display the wonders of Your

faithful love, Savior of all who seek refuge

from those who rebel against Your right

hand.”

2/14/11 The United States Flag

Joe: What does this flag really represent? Does Christ Jesus fly this flag?

Wikipedia: The national flag of the United States of America (the “American flag”) consists of thirteen equal horizontal stripes of red ( top and bot tom) alternating with white, with a blue rectangle in the canton (referred to specifically as the “union”) bearing fifty small, white, five-pointed stars arranged.

Joe: The stars are Satan’s symbol for where he originated from – the heavens. The red stripes are for the blood he has shed – mankind’s – in his quest for establishing a nation that he had hoped would spread across the globe and bring peace to his own kingdom. In this, he tried to mimic Yahweh’s ancient Israelites that fought for the Promise Land, shedding the blood of their enemies. The white stripes represent what he had hoped would be a clean slate for his past conduct by proving to Yahweh that he could rule and bring peace to mankind without need of Her Way. In addition, he encoded the “13″ intro the design of the flag to flaunt his imperfection that he had hoped would win out in the spiritual war. In the harbor of New York stands the symbol of FREEDOM – the Statue of Liberty. It is a bringer of light – LUCIFER. But has he brought light to the United States? He has passed his power to this great country, but has it helped. or has he doomed this once great nation? Satan’s concept is free will without hindrance, and even Yahweh offers free will, but it can result in eternal death if abused. Satan coupled the concept of freedom to being a traitor to his Creator. And yet, how does the United States feel about traitors? They are the scourge of the earth! A country birthed and cultured by the worst traitor in existence. Is it any wonder that this country was doomed from its beginning? The blue – it stands for the SKY. That nothing is beyond Satan’s reach. That he would:

Isaiah 14:14 “I will ascend above the highest

clouds; I will make myself like the Most High.”

14:13 “You said to yourself: “I will ascend to

the heavens; I will set up my throne above the

stars of God. I will sit on the mount of the

[gods'] assembly, in the remotest parts of the

North.”

For Satan to have said this in his heart at the time this verse was written, Yahweh had to have looked into the future at the time Satan would be confined to the earth. Which proves that Yahweh knows the end from the beginning of all things. ”mount of the [gods'] assembly,” And where might that be? Where the gods of eternity converse with Yahweh.

U.S. Government special interest payouts?

Joe: The U.S. Government proposes to cut federal monetary assistance at a time that millions of its citizens are out of work, and during the worst winter ever recorded. Yet children, it is business as usual for those special interest payouts that is the money that belongs to American citizens. They will give one and a half billion of the proposed heating cut to Egypt while their American citizens suffer from the lack of emergency funds to help pay their heating bills. In addition, they will continue to pay Israel their yearly funds that they have been doling out to the tune of: ”Over the last 20 years, the U.S. has been slowly phasing out economic aid to Israel and gradually replacing it with increased military aid. Beginning in 2007, the U.S. has increased military aid by $150 million each year. By FY2012, we will be sending Israel $3.09 billion a year (or an average of $8.5 million a day)…”

http://www.ifamericansknew.org/stats/

usaid.html

How much longer will it be before U.S. citizens take to the streets in massive demonstrations over the slavery of the U.S. special interest policies that not only exclude their people, but also attaches itself to the purse strings of a suffering people?

“$8.5 million a day and will continue to provide military aid at that level through 2018.

” Who does the U.S. government think it is kidding children? They borrow trillions of dollars to pay out in special interest, and pay interest so that it is indeed upon the backs of U.S. taxpayers. How much longer will it be before the American citizens say enough is enough? The Egyptian protests were organized on the internet How long will it be before the U.S. feels the discontent from its citizens for the slavery they have imposed upon its citizens to pay special interest money to other countries that will never be returned, and continue to pay the interest on that money?

“Congress Watch: A Conservative Total for U.S. Aid to Israel: $91 Billion—and counting”

Are the Muslims not being truthful? Check out the sources children.

http://www.mpacuk.org/story/130909/inter….propaganda.html

Now children, with the above posted, I want to point out that this country is Satan’s model of democracy. I will take Mother Yahweh’s theocratic Rule any day of the week over Satan’s poorly run government that treats it citizens no better than the Egyptian government did in Moses day. A revolt is coming, and as the United States takes more and more away from its own people while continuing to squander their future earnings in a massive collection of debt owed to its lenders, Satan’s throne will eventually collapse. China has a right as one of the U.S. largest lenders to inspect its gold reserve. Not if, but when that happens, the real truth of this country being bankrupt will come to the light.

2/15/11 The US Will Declare Martial Law

Joe: Before this year ends the United States will declare marshal law. They are already preparing for what they know cannot be avoided. The roaring of the people of other nations is the model that will span the globe as all countries feeling the crunch of these economic times feels the pangs of distress from the rippling waves of its discontented citizens. The Word states:

Isaiah 17:12 “[ Judgment against the Nations ] Ah! The roar of many peoples—they roar like the roaring of the seas. The raging of the nations— they rage like the raging of mighty waters.”

Luke 21:25 “[ The Coming of the Son of Man ] “Then there will be signs in the sun, moon, and stars; and there will be anguish on the earth among nations bewildered by the roaring sea and waves.”

Yes , even the USA wi l l become bewildered as it falls to its depths of despair that it cannot rise up from.

The United States will shut down the internet in hopes of ending any links of communication to those that are helping to organize and who are fueling the discontent among their people. But they will not be able to halt the end laid out for them. The United States will become as dangerous as Somalia and all places of lawless behavior within its own borders as kayos spreads throughout the country.

2 Thessalonians 2:6-8 (Holman ChristianStandard Bible) “And you know what currently restrains [him], so that he will be revealed in his time. For the mystery of lawlessness is already at work; but the one now restraining will do so until he is out of the way, and then the lawless one will be revealed. The Lord Jesus will destroy him with the breath of His mouth and will bring him to nothing with the brightness of His coming. “

But before that one is brought to nothing, the masses wanting relief will say:

Isaiah 30:11 “Get out of the way! Leave the pathway. Rid us of the Holy One of Israel.”

Yes, the masses will realize that Yahweh’s hand has come against the nations, and they will leave the pathway Christ laid out for Salvation, and the people will look to the Anti-Christ to rid them of Israel’s Son Christ Jesus message of his coming reign. Satan will then come into his own one world ruler-ship he had been trying to establish through his child the United States. But the United States will be swept over by the agitated waves from its lack of integrity to its people.

Proverbs 10:9 “The one who lives with integrity lives securely, but whoever perverts his ways will be found out.”

The underhandedness of the USA against its own petiole will soon come to light. As Satan betrayed, so does the beast he

cultured. Father like son. The exact image reflected of Satan’s character is the same as the child he raised up.They are no different in their character. Deceitful and cunning in their goals to enslave the masses. They promise a blessing but curse those they claim they will bring relief. With a forked tongue they speak and spin their web of lies.

James 3:10 “Out of the same mouth come blessing and cursing. My brothers, these things should not be this way.”

A new DAWN will arise with Satan taking the lead where his human counterparts failed. Satan will promise change with a better society under his direct ruler-ship. His vehicle will be that of the European Union. But know this, for Satan will not succeed, and Yahweh cannot be turned back in Her anger.

Ezekiel 7:8 “I will pour out My wrath on you very soon; I will exhaust My anger against you and judge you according to your ways. I will punish you for all your abominations.”

Isaiah 14:27 “The LORD of Hosts Himself has planned it; therefore, who can stand in its way? It is His hand that is outstretched, so who can turn it back?”

2/28/11 Civil Unrest Destined for the US

Joe: The civil unrest destined for the United States – Years back, this ministry encouraged people to move out of the cities and if necessary, to form communes and pool their resources. What is happening now is the reason that was suggested. Soon, this nation will shut down on the day to day working population level and military law will become the norm. People will become virtual prisoners in their homes as lines of communication with the outside world are cut. You will receive broadcasts of governmental warnings to all people that tell you what you are to do and not to do until order is restored. If you are in a city, you will not be able to get out. What will later transpire, is the birth of the new world order of Satan’s design. Freedom will become a thing of the past until the LOZ come back to crush the nations on this planet and execute all of the evil people. Be prepared for what is just ahead. In one hour things can change.

3/1/11 Fissures Starting Soon

Joe: The sink holes are bad enough, but soon there will be fissures around the globe as the earth’s crust starts the process of breaking apart from the shifting of the inner core against its mass and the planet opens relief fissures to handle the pressures exerted. Cities will be at high risk because of what will happen to the mix-masters and other breakups of roadways as the process disrupts not only traffic, but that of buried pipelines, electrical, oil, water, etc. At the most risk are the nuclear power plants and the disruption of the cooling water ponds and towers.

Can the oceans stand the amounts of molten lava that is moving up towards the seabeds through the fractures already created and will spew forth into the seas? We shall see.

Children, do you think Satan’s scientists can figure out a way to remedy a volatile internal earth? I think not. The abuse of the earth with past atomic tests coupled with Yahweh’s own hand upon the internal core is going to rattle civilization to the core. The scientists worry about being struck by a large asteroid, but should be more worried about what is brewing beneath their feet.

Job 14:17-19 (Holman Christian Standard Bible) “My rebellion would be sealed up in a bag,and You would cover over my iniquity. But as a mountain collapses and crumbles and a rock is dislodged from its place, as water wears away stones and torrents wash away the soil from the land, so You destroy a man’s hope.”

So children, the “hope” is for the remnant, not this rebellious dying world, where some cling to nothing but “Jesus will save me if only I believe what the preachers tickle my ears with.” They are receiving what they have bargained for by following Satan’s lead and scoffing at Yahweh’s Divine Counsel in Her Word by listening to the blind leaders that claim to know the Truth but have proved false to the Power of our Grand Creator.

1 Chronicles 29:15 “For we are foreigners and sojourners in Your presence as were all our ancestors. Our days on earth are like a shadow, without hope.”

That is part of this dying world children, but our hope is firmly established in Yahweh and Her Son Christ, our Savior. Established by WAY of the TRUTH. To be independent is to follow Satan’s way. Not a good route to follow. It leads to the pit.

Psalm 25:1 “[ Dependence on the LORD ] Davidic. LORD, I turn my hope to You.”

3/1/11 Knowing what you know about past times

Knowing what you know about past times, if you had lived in the pre-flood age, would you be the first to board that Ark of Salvation? Or might it be that you would have listened to someone that told you “Don’t worry. If the earth starts to flood we can go up on the Mount of Dawn (a mountain in the pre-flood era) and we’ll be safe there.” Did it save anyone? No. And the fallen angels and their children knew it would not save, because they knew that was a lie, so they tried to break into the Ark and some tried to climb on to it and ride out the rain but were unsuccessful. And that is why unless you know and understand the Truth and are acceptable to Yahweh and Christ, you will find yourself trying to survive by lies or forced entry, but you will find no relief from what awaits you. Misery coupled with an eternal death. that will remove you from creation. So seek the TRUTH and settle for nothing less, because unlike those that are not salvageable (Satan and his allies that will not be forgiven in any age) you still have a small window of opportunity as patience wears thin. Slip through that lighted window before its to late.

Romans 7:11 “For sin, seizing an opportunity through the commandment, deceived me, and through it killed me.” Don’t let this be your fate.

2 Peter 3:15 “Also, regard the patience of our Lord as [an opportunity for] salvation, just as our dear brother Paul, according to the wisdom given to him, has written to you.”

3/5/11 Take a Poll

Joe: Do you want Christ to take control of creation, including this planet? Or do you want to remain under a satanic empire that cannot even feed the masses adequately? Satan offers no real incentive to remain in his family. He cannot offer you good health, even though he tries, or a cure for dreaded diseases, even though he has mankind searching for cures. Make no mistake. Satan wants his empire to flourish and be like Yahweh’s spirit realm and the rest of creation in the expanse, but the way he leads, and the factions within his family, it cannot be achieved. Everything you have read or seen about Satan and his demons in this world, it is all fictitious. Even so, Satan does have factions within his spiritual family of follower. They too cause problems for him and mankind, but, Satan’s goal is to resemble Yahweh in all things, including a realm that is run by laws. The United States is what Satan envisioned for the entire world. He hates to let go and give up that vision. But Yahweh says this country cannot stand for much longer. It is yet another stripping of Satan’s valuables that he loves and wants to continue to hold as a prized possession. The USA is like his first born Son. He spent much time in bringing it to life. It followed his own rebellion from a Royal Crown. Not wanting to pay his taxes to Mother Israel. The USA wanting out from under England’s tax. Satan inspiring his original position as a bringer of light to mankind to serve as its governor and to enlighten under Yahweh’s Way, before he went off course and thereby went sour. But still, he held on to that vision though twisted, and the statue of Liberty represents his own liberty from Yahweh’s Royal Crown. And with the knowledge he took with him from the heavens, he passed the power he passed on to mankind.

Everything mankind has achieved, it can be traced back to the heavens, in birth the spirit realm and the visible realm, because in truth, they are the same,. They are interchangeable with one another. You are robbed of the ability to go in and out of both realms,. just as Christ was able to do after his reanimation. That is the TRUTH. Yahweh offers much through Christ, but Satan is only offering a cheap copy of the other side that lack the benefit package that comes with Christ’s Rule.

MARCH FOR CHRIST – or accept Satan’s empire that is headed for certain defeat. Take the USA to task over the REAL coverup. You know the TRUTH. STAND UP for Yahweh and Christ, and you will be under Christ’s leadership after this war ceases.

Although the crafts of the spirit world have the capability of cloaking within that realm, how do you think they do it from the visible realm? You see them one second, and then they light up and disappear. They are moving behind the veil of the spirit realm. This is why I have enlightened you that you are robbed of the ability to move from one realm into the other. It is a stripping of mankind’s ability for having inherited sin from the first human couple. So, did you think that you had to personally sin to be a sinner?

Sin is inherent because you started out in the flesh and not the spirit. Your sin was passed on to you from sin that spawned early on in Adam and Eve. Had they had a child before they sinned, he or she would have been perfect in Yahweh’s eyes without blemish, just as Adam and Eve were before they sinned. But that was not the case, and so sin spread through mankind from the first sinners.

That iswhy you are born into a corrupt world with sin in your makeup. You must root it out with knowledge of the TRUTH so you are back on track of following the Way of Yahweh. That is what true perfection is. If perfection was judged by making unintentional mistakes, then Yahweh would not be the Rock of Perfection. And yet, Yahweh regretted making mankind. Does that make Her imperfect? No, not at all. She intended good for mankind. But, regretted having made mankind because of their heart condition always being towards corruption. Corruption is evilness to Yahweh. When you think of Satan and his demons being evil, never forget that mankind shares the same disposition.

It puts enmity between Yahweh and those that practice sin. Noah turned his attention to Yahweh, and when he did he put himself and those of his family that also looked to Yahweh on the path to Salvation from a dying world and satanic empire.

3/6/11 Who is the river of eternal death that leads to the pit of destruction?

Across that river lies the eternal pit. But what is the eternal pit? It is the EXIT from Yahweh’s body. It is to be cast outside into the eternal void of darkness. To be permanently removed from the Light. In essence, you cease to exist. Since Yahweh normally recycles all energy, it reveals a waste She has an abhorrence for, and so She discards it into the pit for eternity.

The KEY for those with insight: Eternal = Eternity.

Yahweh is Eternal, because She exists outside Her body in the eternal void-oflight - except for Her own radiance, and that of other God’s like Herself – in Eternity. That is why She speaks of eternal death. It is outside of life, because Yahweh is what? The Life-giver.

So, cast outside (Her) into darkness, is where? The eternal void of darkness. So children, all things taught to you in the past, they are all within the Word. You simply recognize the KEY for each teaching that unlocks the TRUTH concerning the topic.

Using the Word you piece together the puzzle and it gives the revelation. This is how we are taught in Heaven by the Consortium of Holy Ghost teachers. But we still haven’t answered the question of who the river of death is.

Job 33:14-18 (Holman Christian Standard Bible)

“For God speaks time and again, but a person may not notice it. In a dream, a vision in the night, when deep sleep falls on people …as they slumber on [their] beds, He uncovers their ears at that time and terrifies them with warnings, in order to turn a person [from his] actions and suppress his pride. God spares his soul from the Pit, his life from crossing the river [of death].”

Does Yahweh, the Mother Israel, try to personally intervene and save lives from the pit of destruction? The Word reveals that She indeed does from what I cited above. But who is the river of death? It is eternal death, because it has no Ransom Sacrifice for release.

She spares the soul from the pit, meaning the EXIT. What flows along side the EXIT? The river of death.

Job 33:18 “God spares his soul from the Pit, his life from crossing the river [of death].”

Job 36:12 “But if they do not obey, they will cross the river [of death] and die without knowledge.”

This reveals that rejection of listening to the WORD will cause eternal expulsion from Mother’s body – that being eternal death without ever learning the TRUTH.

Next, we will look at the identity of the river of death.

Numbers 24:8, 9 “God brought him out of Egypt; He is like the horns of a wild ox for them. He will feed on enemy nations and gnaw their bones; he will strike [them] with his arrows. He crouches, he lies down like a lion or a lioness—who dares to rouse him? Those who bless you will be blessed, and those who curse you will be cursed.”

This is the KEY. Yahweh brought who out of Egypt besides Her Chosen People?

It was Michael whom was fighting for Yahweh’s people against the Egyptian army. As the energy split back off of Christ, Michael is brought back as he was in the days of ancient Egypt. He is warrior-class, not a Savior, because at that tie, Yahweh served as ancient Israel’s Savior from Egypt. So, Michael ids the ox or bulls horns that feed on Yahweh’s enemies. To know this, you look for additional locks that the KEY will unlock.

Leviticus 4:7 “The priest must apply some of the blood to the horns of the altar of fragrant incense that is before the LORD in the tent of meeting. He must pour out the rest of the bull’s blood at the base of the altar of burnt offering that is at the entrance to the tent of meeting.”

So here, the horns are at the tent of meeting, and blood is applied. This blood is what gives Michael rebirth to life for a time to perform an important mission. It will be a mission that send him back to the eternal state of death. How do we know this?

Leviticus 16:18 “Then he will go out to the altar that is before the LORD and make atonement for it. He is to take some of the bull’s blood and some of the goat’s blood and put [it] on the horns on all sides of the altar.”

Michael’s horns are mixed with the blood of the bull and goats blood. This makes them both vessels for destruction. Michael is the destroyer – the Horn, and he flows towards the EXIT by becoming the river he was crossed back over from - the river of death. But the river of death is presently next to the EXIT.

When Michael executes Judgment upon mankind and the rest of Satan’s allies, he will be the river of death, because he to must return to his promised kingdom, for he is also DEATH in his mission to serve Mother Israel in ridding Her of Her enemies, and in Vindicating Her name from reproach.

Isaiah 54:16 “Look, I have created the craftsman who blows on the charcoal fire and produces a weapon suitable for its task; and I have created the destroyer to work havoc.”

Jeremiah 4:7 “A lion has gone up from his thicket; a destroyer of nations has set out. He has left his lair to make your land a waste. Your cities will be reduced to uninhabited ruins.”

That’s Michael’s mission, and it makes him bloodguilty, but because he is also the split energy of Christ, his return to death which will be for eternity, it absolves the LOZ members that participate in the destroyer work at Armageddon by his Sacrifice to give up his duality as Christ’s warrior self and remain in death. Therefore children, then the river of death will flow into his promised kingdom of the eternal void and take the evil with him. Though Satan will not be executed for eternity at that time, he will nonetheless remain in the death-state for 1000 years along with his demons. The Sacrifice that Michael makes, it will also cover the future blood spilled by holy angelic warriors that execute the final Judgment after the Millennium ends and Satan and his followers are all destroyed at the conclusion of the final testing of outside tempters.

3/7/11 What sex will the Antichrist come forth as?

Satan – he is presently trying to resemble our Mother Israel as Warrior Class Yahweh. But Satan is so consumed with being like our Creator in all things, and because he does not consider himself as being evil, he will soon take the next step in his evolution process of being a copycat to take on the form, or else replace an existing human female that will emerge as the coming Antichrist. The TRUTH of this matter is revealed by unlocking the major KEY.

Isaiah 14:14 “I will ascend above the highest clouds; I will make myself like the Most High.”

Satan wants to resemble the Creator in every way. His next step is to become the mother of mankind ( Like Mother Israel will be to Her own children …during eternal bliss when the hostilities finally cease for eternity.) In the Word, Tyre reveals much about Satan. About his wanting to be a god, but is classed the same as a man, because he wanted to be a god like Yahweh. His dishonest trade practices, all are reflections of Satan’s conduct as he pulled away from the counsel of Yahweh because he despised Her opposition to his wanting freedom to do as he saw fit and to be in a position of authority like Her. To rule and to rule over. And to have control of not only his family, but also to possess what was precious in his own eyes.

Psalm 107:11 “because they rebelled against God’s commands and despised the counsel of the Most High.”

Ezekiel 28 (Holman Christian Standard Bible)

Ezekiel 28

“The Fall of Tyre’s Ruler 1 The word of the LORD came to me: 2 “Son of man, say to the ruler of Tyre: This is what the Lord GOD says: Your heart is proud, and you have said: I am a god; I sit in the seat of gods in the heart of the sea. Yet you are a man and not a god, though you have regarded your heart as that of a god. 3 Yes, you are wiser than Daniel; no secret is hidden from you!

4 By your wisdom and understanding you have acquired wealth for yourself. You have acquired gold and silver for your treasuries. 5 By your great skill in trading you have increased your wealth, but your heart has become proud because of your wealth.” 6 Therefore this is what the Lord GOD says: Because you regard your heart as that of a god,

7 I am about to bring strangers against you, ruthless men from the nations. They will draw their swords against your magnificent wisdom and will defile your splendor. 8 They will bring you down to the Pit, and you will die a violent death in the heart of the sea. 9 Will you still say: I am a god, in the presence of those who kill you? Yet you will be [shown to be] a man, not a god, in the hands of those who kill you. 10 You will die the death o f the uncircumcised at the hands of strangers. For I have spoken. [This is] the declaration of the Lord GOD .”

Who are the strangers? They are comprised of the LOZ, and are strangers to Satan because the ranks of the holy angelic class have been filled with holy ghost replacements since the time Satan was cast out of Heaven due to past conflicts that had arisen during Satan’s imprisonment on earth.

Man is interchangeable with woman in the Word. It is because all human life are termed “Mankind.”

Job 10:13 “Yet You concealed these [thoughts] in Your heart; I know that this was Your hidden plan:”

Yahweh knew Satan’s thoughts over having to pay Her tribute. And She knew all else his proud heart conjured, including his plan to rebel. Though he sought to conceal what he felt, Yahweh knows all things.

Job 21:27 “Look, I know your thoughts, the schemes you would wrong me with.”

Is it an intrusion by Yahweh to read out hearts? Does She do us injustice by keeping Her creation an open book to Her mind?

Psalm 7:9 “Let the evil of the wicked come to an end, but establish the righteous. The One who examines the thoughts and emotions is a righteous God.”

Yahweh performs this task to keep Her creation in harmony with righteousness. She is only allowing evil for a short time to reveal its volatile nature. It has no real value unless it is used to counter evil. Repaying evil for evil. You do not repay someone that murders by giving them what is good. Evil deserves an evil response. Even so, and as in the case of Michael the Destroyer, evil meted out against evil must be balanced on the Scales of Justice. Never forget Mother is a God ruled by Her own Laws. She does not consider Herself above Her Laws. Her Word is Her bond with all of creation.

“I sit in the seat of gods in the heart of the sea.” This verse touches upon Satan’s knowledge of the God’s of Eternity. The sea is Eternity that they all exist within. Nothing was hidden from Satan when he was Dawn the bringer of light – …Lucifer: ”Yes, you are wiser than Daniel; no secret is hidden from you!” And this reveals his commerce activities in the expanse as Dawn Lucifer: “By your wisdom and understanding you have acquired wealth for yourself.You have acquired gold and silver for your treasuries.” So children, study over the Word about Tyre, because at times Trye is not a city or empire, but is Satan also. The Word is interwoven with the revelations and one must use insight with a combination of Mother Spirit to see what is inspired for revelation of your minds.

As you children know, there are no coincidence. Just as Regina was reading the same Scriptures at the time I posted a topic. So let’s look outside the Word for other locks that can be unlocked by what you have learned from the KEY given about Satan taking the position of the human-like Antichrist. If you have ever doubted the position would be filled by Satan, consider that he is an anti to Yahweh’s Throne of Authority, and therefore is an Antichrist in the spirit realm just like all that are with him. But the humanoid Antichrist must be in the flesh, and it cannot be just any person, because many oppose Yahweh and Christ. It must be a special individual - Satan. Only he can fill that bill as a she.

Dictionary:

“eternal >adjective 1 lasting or existing forever. 2 valid for all time: eternal truths.

-PHRASES the Eternal City the city of Rome. eternal triangle a relationship

between three people involving sexual rivalry.

-DERIVATIVES eternally >adverb.

-ORIGIN Latin aeternalis, from aevum ’age’.”

Remember, the Woman, the Child, and the Dragon. Also, think Pyramid, and triangular shaped space crafts. Was there sexual rivalry? How does Yahweh view sex? What dis the fallen angels engage in on earth?

The fallen angels rivaled mankind’s handsome and beautiful women, because they materialized as good looking, and were able to take mates of whom ever they chose. Though the Word does not reveal this to you, they materialized as both male and female. What does that signify? That Yahweh has both attributes, and they exercised their ability to take on one or the other because they were created in Her image. That was an abuse of Yahweh’s Law to intermingle with mankind in such a manner at that time, and it caused rivalry with the men and women of human descent because they could not compete with those angels in looks or prestige from having descended from the heavens in desertion of their assigned tasks.

Like humankind, Yahweh stripped them of some of there powers. They could no longer materialize from behind the veil at will. There giving secrets of the heavens was also restricted, and because Satan caused enmity between Yahweh and the holy family that included the expanse of creation, Yahweh sought to put enmity between Satan and his human family, and that is why many believe Satan to be hideous instead of his real appearance. And also to make it appear as though he works against his own family. Not until these end times has that rouge been lifted to reveal his true intent.

How do we know Satan will follow through in trying to resemble Yahweh as Mother Israel (but not claiming to be Her - only Her Rival) when he emerges as the Antichrist on the physical plane? He has already altered his appearance to look like a most beautiful woman. Seraiah said he is breathtaking in appearance.

3/18/2011 How would a large massive death toll that resulted in high levels of radiation causing a dead zone be handled by the world?

Joe: Is Yahweh in the process of creating dead zones? Making the earth uninhabitable in a step by step process?

And, are underground mining operations risking the lives of miners as the earth continues to shift and crack across the globe, making future cave in’s more than just a possible threat?

This and more is on the horizon. The earth itself is now the biggest threat to all life on this planet. Looking at mankind, knowing it is out of harmony, how can anyone expect the home they live upon to be within harmony? The misuse of this planet’s resources by mankind, and the total disregard for it being a natural recycling creation, and the involvement of the LOZ to rectify creation through the use of violence, it all adds doom to its inhabitants – including the animal kingdom, sea life, and insect populations.

Yahweh is performing a two-fold process. She is cleansing the earth, and She is altering it in preparation for making it the jewel it once was. Yahweh’s land (She owns everything in creation) has become polluted, and Her temple of worship has become defiled with falsehoods. A pattern was set long ago:

2 Chronicles 34:8 “[ Josiah's Repair of the Temple ] In the eighteenth year of his reign, in order to cleanse the land and the temple, Josiah sent Shaphan son of Azaliah, along with Maaseiah the governor of the city and the recorder Joah son of Joahaz, to repair the temple of the LORD his God.”

First Yahweh CLEANSES. Then She repairs what is wrong by making it conform to Her LAWS that bring harmony to the land ( the earth) and all of creation as a whole. But, is Yahweh justified in taking action against Her creation and thereby killing whatever stands in Her way of bringing things back into harmony?

Proverbs 20:30 “Lashes and wounds purge away evil, and beatings cleanse the innermost parts.”

At present mankind is taking a beating. Like a child that misbehaves. Why? Because those that died in Japan, and those that were raptured, they have been removed to the safe haven (raptured) and pass-overs have been reanimated on the other side. But that is because they died in a rage of anger not yet destroyed by the cup of wrath. They are in the BOWL (raptees excluded) – the decision making process on the other side that got them there by chance and action of the LOZ. Possibly a better position than most people on this planet finds themselves in. One is killed and one is taken up alive. But those killed did not remain in death.

Isaiah 4:4 when the Lord has washed away the filth of the daughters of Zion and cleansed the bloodguilt from the heart of Jerusalem by a spirit of judgment and a spirit of burning.”

Through judgment that is righteous in Yahweh’s eyes, She has the right – bound by Her own LAWS – to cleanse Her creation of whomever She declares as being a traitor to Her throne of authority. And of whomever shares a relationship with those traitors, though born into this arena of the spiritual war.

Ezekiel 37:23 “They will not defile themselves any more with their idols, their detestable things, and all their transgressions. I will save them from all their apostasies by which they sinned, and I will cleanse them. Then they will be My people, and I will be their God.”

This Yahweh promises to the survivors - Her remnant. But not everyone is going to be a survivor. Only those that worship Her in Spirit and Truth. In Yahweh’s wisdom, She is extracting Her remnant a few at a time as She brings disaster through Her anger.

Ezekiel 39:14 “They will appoint men on a full-time basis to pass through the land and bury the invaders who remain on the surface of the ground, in order to cleanse it. They will make [their] search at the end of the seven months.”

Who are the invaders? They are the ones that have come from the expanse to aid Satan in this spiritual war. You are not alone in the expanse. Much is at stake for every creation that is made in Yahweh’s image. That image includes the ability to follow Her Laws just like She does. In Yahweh’s reality, no one is above Her Law. Not even Herself. She is bound by them, which in essence is Her WORD. The Lawgiver. The Word of LAW exists in writing and in tangible form as a living creation. All hinges on that single creation Yahweh brought into existence.

Daniel 12:10 “Many will be purified, cleansed, and refined, but the wicked will act wickedly; none of the wicked will understand, but the wise will understand.”

Children, do you understand? If you do, then each of you will experience this purification:

Zechariah 13:1 “[ God's People Cleansed ] “On that day a fountain will be opened for the house of David and for the residents of Jerusalem, [to wash away] sin and impurity.”

Those of you that are double-minded, inclined to think you are of Christ because you believe what you have been taught as tradition, though you see the nature on this planet causing havoc, and Yahweh is NATURE – you are inclined to shadow your mind with darkness in your way of thinking “I’m not evil. God will not destroy me.” But you are forgetting that Satan also believes he is not evil, and so you prove yourselves to be his children because your minds share a common belief that is a LIE.

James 4:8 “Draw near to God, and He will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, sinners, and purify your hearts, double minded people!”

Can you draw near before it’s to late? Yahweh is progressively revealing that She is the Source of what this world is presently experiencing in TRIBULATION. No one is here to force you to accept the TRUTH. That must come from within your own logic and be embedded within your heart, that Yahweh is dead serious about removing everyone and everything that has Satan’s footprint upon it. If you think that you are not under foot, then continue on with your belief. That is your right given to you by Yahweh as a freewill creation. But if you truly desire to walk in the light:

1 John 1:7 “But if we walk in the light as He Himself is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus His Son cleanses us from all sin.”

Otherwise, you will be part of what is being cleansed away, because you remain in sin, and that is being removed from creation.

Cordelia: Hi Joe, good to hear from you again When you wrote, “those that were raptured” did you imply that the process has already began?

Regina: Raptures taking place would most definitely explain all the UFO sightings that occurred during the event. Upwards of 300 I read.

May 1, 2011 LyddiaAvenna

Joe: Meet LyddiaAvenna, a goddess out in Eternity Children. Not a foe of our Mother. So much has been going on, with every spirit in heaven wondering what our Mother is going to do that I seemed to have lost my earlier zeal for the vacation. I have a lot to share with you and the other ministers.

The goddess in the pic is a friend of our Mother’s. Her reality is modeled after Mother’s with a few exceptions. Instead of an Only Begotten Son, she has seven daughters. See them in her crown? She is also an 8, or eternal like our Mother and all of the other Gods.

In her reality all of her subjects are flesh and blood except for her seven daughters. Although death can occur, eternal death is nonexistent. She is a goddess of love, and free will is the rule in her kingdom. If someone betrays her, they are cat away upon a planet by there self and made to live without anyone else for a length of time as punishment. Later, they are given a another chance to live among other humans. If they commit another act of betrayal by killing someone or some other vile crime, they will be cast away for a longer period of time to mull over their vile action. The seven daughters are the watcher s over her kingdom. Interesting reality is it not children?

Regina: Yes very, and oddly coincides with some random thoughts that have come to mind the past week or two.

Joe: Please share those thoughts, because what I have to relate will take some time, and not all is good.

Regina: The idea of casting those who are vile elsewhere – another planet, or reality, was the one that coincided with what you shared. It was just a passing thought that I dismissed as just being random until you posted just now.

Joe: Ah yes, you are probably feeling vibes from what is going on. A majority of the Eternal Gods are against our Mother. In the past they have supported Her, but doubts have crept into their hearts that our Mother’s WAY is the way to treat Her creation. They have reviewed the number of times She has destroyed Her intelligent creations that have gone sour over the many millenniums and they have decided that Her Way is inhumane to Her subjects, and so they were demanding that She do a course correction or else suffer the consequences that noncompliance will bring forth. Mother’s response to them was to go from property damage to completely demolishing entire towns and mass execution of those in Her LOZ’s path of destruction by grinding them up in tornadoes. That answer did not sit well with the opposing Gods.

Sorry for the delay children. Liddia was briefing me on the latest developments. I must break here to post about that, then I will resume here. Satan’s aura is growing, with his thanks to the Eternal Gods supporting his stand in this spiritual war. Why are they doing that? It is not simply a matter that our Mother is killing people. but revolves more around Her appetite for punishment through Her vengeance. That’s what disturbs the Gods taking a firm stand against Her. As Satan’s aura grows, Yahweh’s light grows dimmer. Satan has a mind-link with Yahweh by virtue of his being interconnected to Her through his creation to life. Absorption of Her Aura by the other Gods is what our Mother did to the God that attached itself to Her, and the goddess She snuffed out. What happened to those two Gods life force – their auras?

Job 14:10 “But a man dies and fades away; he breathes his last—where is he?”

They (the two Gods) auras faded away without a God to reanimate their energy. Where did they go to? What happens to energy that is slowly used up in a battery? It dissipates until it is dead and void of life. Yahweh is like a battery that was self renewing, but then experienced a drain on Her reserve supply and is unable to regenerate Her energy. For as long as the Gods are continuing to drain Her, eventually She will be completely dissipated of all Her life supporting energy. Only a shell will remain of what once was a vibrant Life-form What is growing and intending to fill that coming void is Satan.

LyddiaAveena is forming a mind link with our Mother that is intended to connect her existence with that of our reality and possibly make her a surrogate mother of all of Yahweh’s creation.

Dictionary: sur rogate >noun 1 a substitute, especially a person deputizing for another in a role or office. 2 (in the Christian Church) a bishop’s deputy who grants marriage licenses.

-DERIVATIVES surrogacy >noun.

-ORIGIN from Latin surrogare ‘elect as a substitute’.

If this happens and our own Mother ceases to exist, two realities will merge as one single reality. But children. This possible stepmother refuses to destroy Satan and his demons or any other lifeforms. She has stated that she would alter spirits to human form and integrate them into Her setting (with other reality humans) under her Way or rule of law with the remaining humans still alive at that future time. That’s enough for now. I will speak with all of you another rime. *hugs* I remain your guide through whatever lies ahead.

Liddia just briefed me again. In order to conserve energy for the war effort against Satan, no more reanimation’s can be performed until / and if Yahweh recovers from this attack that s steadily draining Her energy. This also means no pass overs to the spirit realm. All will be retained in Her memory for future reanimation’s. This makes it doubly perilous for the warrior class holy angels. If things do not go well for our Mother, then Her memories will be passed on to LyddiaAveena. That goddess has not been challenged by the opposing Gods because she refrains from offering aid to our Mother, except to serve as a sanctuary for Her reality’s inhabitants. That’s all I have for now children *hugs* Christ and Michael are distressed over Mother Yahweh’s dilemma child. All of heaven is distressed, but there is nothing anyone can do. Christ and Michael are a product of our Mother’s energy just like we are, even though they have godly status. Seraiah requested permission to enter Eternity and converse with the God’s at the Assembly. Permission was granted with the understanding that if he is offed he will not be reanimated until sometime in the distant future. The Rapture is even in a stall because our Mother’s energy is necessary in order to rebirth them once they are extracted and taken to the location that it is to occur at. Michael and Seraiah both tried to convince goddess LyddiaAveena that our Mother’s Way is the more proper way to rule her subjects. That being the use of the eternal death penalty and dark realms that are nightmarish for vile offenders. But, she simply refused to consider that her reality consisted of such drastic measures against her children. Not even step children are deserving of such punishments, so that was a futile meeting and no results we reachieved .

LyddiaAveena believes that true love does not bring harm to even the worst of her intelligent creations. All of her planets are modeled after our Mother’s original setting on the earth – Paradise. Another exception is that no animals die, not even an insect. Her planets are renewed by her miraculous power, so death is not even a consideration. If someone is killed or even murdered, she immediately reanimates that lost energy back to life, then her daughters take offenders into custody and remove them to another uninhabited paradise planet that does not have a living soul n it except the offender.

They are permitted to live in isolation to think over their past conduct. When the goddess feels they are remorseful for whatever they did, she has her daughters return them to where they came forth from. And babies are born in her reality. My understanding is that she created male and female babies on her first planet and her daughters raised them to adulthood of 25 years (approximate because they are not under time – they are in eternity ‘s timeless stream under her laws of her reality. From the first pair she then populated her planets. Seraiah told me the goddess is a joy to speak with, and you can feel her love that glows from her outward appearance.

Of course, they spoke to her presence and not her actual Eternal Self out in Eternity. Like our Mother, she can present herself in any form she chooses. I hope I’ve adequately answered your questions children. *hug*

Regina: Thank you Joe. I understand their distress and feel it also. I cannot stomach the thought of being under Satan’s rule. In still feel strong loyalty to Mother, but it’s hard to know what is appropriate to feel or even think right now…

Joe: I must admit this children, and I am not alone in feeling this: I like Lady Aveena (that is what she has requested that the holy family call her in name and honor of her visits here) and her concept of reality. It is appealing to know that no death occurs that cannot be corrected in a quick manner. In the same token I love and like our own Mother, though Her reality we all live in is much more stricter. What I see and feel is love for two Mothers that are both caring in different ways. Lady Aveena’s way is not vile nor is it imperfect. It is more simply simple and different than ours in how law is administered, but, it does appeal to my inner nature of a society that is without eternal punishment. Does that make me disloyal or the other holy ghosts that feel this way? I think not, because I feel no differently towards our Mother and Her Way of judicial compliance with Her laws. I quite simply like Lady Aveena’s way also. Both rule in Righteousness, but in different punishments for those that offend. I could live in either setting, because I refuse to offend against Divine Law. And children, it is not without reason that our Mother permitted Lady Aveena to come here. Therefore, our Mother sees no wrong in how that goddess rules her own kingdom. And from what else I have learned, her reality staggers ours in size. It is also continuously growing outward, so that tells me she is a Mighty God like our own Mother. She has in the past – recently is what I was told – merged a vortex within our reality as a test to see if it could be done without harm to either reality. Since this occurred before the Eternal Gods took action against our Mother, it had to have been performed by invitation or our Mother would have viewed it as an intrusion. Why it was done is still a mystery known only to Mother and Lady Aveena. I will pass your message on to Seraiah child, and will keep all of you updated.

Liddia is here with an update. I will be back as soon as I confer with her. Seraiah’s life support could not be maintained out in eternity, so he rushed back to our reality. Lady Aveena has evidently acclimated with Mother’s energy, so by Lady Aveena’s power and spiritual energy Seraiah returned to Eternity with full life support for his celestial energy feed that is necessary to remain alive.

That’s what Liddia came to tell me children. Jake just informed me that the asteroid belt is starting to shift off from its natural path. Jake said Mount Zion had a tremor and dimmed in light. The Scripture says Heaven first – then earth – meaning our reality – Heaven meaning Yahweh’s Throne would sooner pass away than Her Word to return unfulfilled. Mother would rather die than to have Her Word go unfulfilled. Will the spirit realm collapse before the visible realm since it was created first? Or will it be the visible first? Hopefully we won’t have to find out.

Jake said Seraiah is communicating back to him from Eternity. I will await the message from Jake. Mother’s light is growing very dim in the eternal darkness, and Jake said that Lady Aveena’s presence is along side Seraiah. Seraiah said it is hard for him to look upon our Mother’s dying flame. He feels Her helplessness. Something is happening. Seraiah is coming back. Jake said Mount Zion is beginning to beam with renewed light. No, not a shower, but a rainbow that is arcing over our Mother and completely surrounding Her……and energy is pouring into Her at a high rate.

My oh my…… children I must leave and go to see what is happening in Heaven. I will return and tell you what I learn *hugs*

(Later) Oh my children, much has happened since we last spoke. Allow me to gather my thoughts and I’ll relate all I know ”God of Gods!” Quoting Seraiah. It was first believed that Lady Aveena’s reality was modeled after our Mother’s, but I have since learned that it is much older. Possibly the oldest reality of all the Gods. She is so very powerful and so very kind that it is hard to contain my thoughts and put them on this screen. We all owe HER a debt of gratitude, and She is so humble. I will forevermore capitalize Her as a Goddess and not goddess, because She deserves no less.

She looked upon our dying Mother and took great pity. Infusing Her with energy, and arcing Her in a protective rainbow so that no further draining of Mother’s energy could be performed by those other gods. Then She told Seraiah to leave and reenter our reality, that She would now take things under Her control. That She did children That She did…. She infuriated those other gods, and Seraiah being awe struck at what was going on, he halted his departing to look on from a distance. He witnessed Lady Aveena nullifying the energy of those disgruntled gods, and at the same time She maintained Her flow of energy through the arc of safety to Mother. When he related that, I thought of the Rainbow Mother gave to the offspring after the great flood, and the Ark of safety that those faithful 8 rode upon the high waters to safety in. Next children, Lady Aveena - while still maintaining Her other tasks - reanimated the goddess Ashtoreth, and also goddess Kassandra that Mother adsorbed when she attached herself to Her. Then Seraiah said he heard Her audibly speak and it was fear inspiring as Her Great Voice rumbled throughout the surrounding Eternal Darkness: “STOP THIS CONFLICT IN MY SANCTUARY! IF YOU DO NOT – I WILL REMOVE YOU TO THE FARTHEST REACHES AND OUT OF MY SIGHT UNTIL YOU UNDERSTAND THAT THIS WILL NOT BE TOLERATED!” And then children, things quieted down. With that Seraiah took his leave and returned to us. Our Mother has been fully restored to Her former status. She is producing Her own energy with a surplus.

I’ve learned still more. Each of the Gods, including our Mother, they have a portion of what Lady Aveena possesses. Speculation among the Consortium of holy ghosts is that She is the Mother of Eternity, and that like within our reality, Mother Yahweh duplicated a Sanctuary to represent Lady Avenna’s that exists within Eternity. We also think that all things can be traced back to Her. The 8 being Infinity that She casts, and the 7 might represent Her daughters that were first perfected by Her. So much is still unknown, except something else Seraiah made note of: A GREAT HALL exists deep in Eternity. He stumbled upon it another time he visited Eternity.He did not go inside because his time there was limited, but we (hg’s) believe it might be what represents our own Great Hall of Records. There we believe, lies the SECRETS of Eternity. And like humankind that forgot where they came forth from – by whom (?) we think that might be the case of the Eternal God’s - Lady Aveena excepted because She seems the most knowledgeable of any thus far. Seraiah has been invited back by Lady Aveena to Her own reality. Perhaps he can learn more about Her and Eternity. We shall see children. One last thing. The Elders of the Consortium have gone to Christ, requesting that our Mother treat Her creation of lifeforms in the same way that Lady Aveena treats Her’s. That the eternal death penalty be eliminated. That offenders be treated in the same manner as Her reality. So far no word has come down on a ruling by our Mother concerning our request for change. Talk to you another time children.

May 2, 2011 – Liddia’s recent briefing of the spiritual war.

Joe – Why does this represent a scored victory against our Mother’s side children? It is because Satan is revealing through his prized child that they have the power to surgically infiltrate and strike any enemy no matter where they might be hiding with a death dealing blow. This raises fear in the United States ability to take on any foe, and gives rise to the steadfast resolve that Satan will not surrender the United States to the pit of oblivion that our Mother has previously and progressively been sinking this country into. Satan is more firmly resolved to keep the United States afloat than he has ever been. Shedding his female look and taking on the look of a reigning king that is taking ground in a war that he was previously losing. And now, with outside help, he is feeling his destiny is to rule over all of creation with the coming demise of Yahweh (he hopes) as he gains momentum in revealing to the USA where natural untouched treasure awaits the nation in a rebounding of his child to wealth and esteem among his lessor children.

We, the creations of Yahweh, in that we stem back to Her mind, makes us a viable part of Her. In the past, if She ceased to exist, so would each of us and all that exists within Her. But with a new development that involves many Eternal Gods like our Mother, Satan is slowly moving into a position that could put us into the HEART of him. You may ask how so, and rightly so, but ti understand the process, you must first understand how a reality works within. HEART – this is a term such as “heart of the matter” meaning the very essence of something. Yahweh being the essence of life. This is borne out in that every reality is similar in how it is constructed. “EARTH” is not really simply a planet that is composed of ground that has elemental life producing qualities. We know plants grow when planted in earth, and that all life is fed from its produce, but what does EARTH really represent in symbolic terms to all of the ETERNAL GODS? It is a CODED WORD that means: HEART. Each reality is in the HEART or LIFE PRODUCING ETERNAL BEING. I’ll come back to this, but first, know that ETERNAL means to live on without death./ However children, even their lives can be terminated through intervention by an Eternal. Like the demons or holy angels that can live forever unless intervention occurs, this gives understanding to how even our Mother can be extinguished and Her life cease to exist. Like a match flame, it can slowly burn out, or be quickly snuffed out by an Equal force – with another Eternal, or by a Greater force as in the case of Yahweh and the demons.

Now back to the term EARTH. Eternal Gods are the Beginning and End of each reality they nurture, so look for the beginning at the END – Read EARTH with the last letter and then skip to the beginning and read across and tell me what the WORD is? You will then know the TRUTH of this matter from the END and back to its BEGINNING. From the OMEGA back to the ALPHA.

They won’t actually bury his body. It will be a proxy that looks like him. Theatrics will play a part. The real Bin Laden will be preserved for study and as a trophy for Satan’s child to gloat over in their accomplishment.

I understand they claim to have buried him at sea. That removes the need for theatrics children. They did kill the leader, so he is out of the spiritual war as a pawn. But, his followers will retaliate without a doubt. Satan might have opened a can of worms as he alters the war plan and brings Islam’s subversive wing into play. A major game that was being played had a score of 9 to 11 at the time of Bin Laden’s demise.

May 10, 2011 – Will Bin Laden’s demise alter the downward spiraling course of the USA?

Bebai – Satan’s latest plan is to flush the U.S. Treasury with newly acquired wealth. He has al ready laid the foundation for bringing this newly found wealth to his child. If he’s successful, the United States will spiral upward. Would this be a terrible thing for the world of Satan and mankind? Not from their standpoint. It would mean that the United States has become a Phoenix in its pawn position on the war board of the spiritual war.

Dictionary: “phoenix >noun (in classical mythology) a unique bird that periodically burned itself on a funeral pyre and was born again from the ashes.

-ORIGIN Greek phoinix ‘Phoenician, reddish purple, or phoenix’.” Satan was symbolically burned in a collision with this planet back in 1908, and he rose up from the flames of being thrown down from heaven and burst upon the surface of the earth. Satan is cunning. He utilizes all past knowledge he possesses. Factories that came into existence that produce refined goods are a copy of Yahweh’s ability to refine energy for new uses. Recycling is not new. Our Creator is the Great recycling phenomena of spent energy. There is nothing new under the Sun. Correct interpreted – “There is nothing new under the Son,” because the Son, Christ Jesus is the former Michael, and is thus the former of all that is in existence except for himself and our Creator that supplied and continues to supply the raw energy that is refurbished throughout creation. The heavens and all of creation reveal Yahweh’s Great Power and Her renewal of spent energy into new viable raw energy that takes its place in both realms like a factory that turns out new vehicles or other products from processing the natural slow moving energy that it uses in the processes. Steel from one process, glass from another, and so on, but it all came from the natural resources, or from an effort to copy our Creator in utilizing what exists in creation through the great recycled process.

Freedom is what Satan sought, but in this reality, there is nob true freedom from our Creator, because Yahweh is the benefactor of all that’s in existence, including Her Only Begotten Son, Christ Jesus. Alienation from Yahweh means that energy becomes misused, and without Her guidance, you have a kingdom that is full of bickering among its subjects – uncontrollable differences of opinion on a l l things of major importance. This is why Satan’s kingdom will never work. It is plagued with wars and sickness and suffering. Satan cannot create the medicine nor the mind-set necessary for peace, harmony and a tranquil existence no matter how hard he tries. The United States was the hope he held, and the hope he refuses to abandon.

But can it survive with so much quartered against its concept of Liberty? Satan has been viewed outside this reality as a god seeking only good for his subjects, and Yahweh has been and is viewed as (by a majority) as a meddler and a God of vengeance that goes beyond showing genuine love for Her creation. If Satan is the god of love they claim him to be, and our Creator is a murdering God that shows mercy only to those She chooses, what of mankind and the other intelligent creations that have turned on their Creator? What does that make them? Just because Satan seeks good for his children, does it give him the right to overtly take possession of something he stole? And as for the Gods of Eternity that have taken a stand against Yahweh, do they have the right to meddle in our realities affairs? Yahweh says they do not, and that before Her Word will be returned unfulfilled, this reality and all that’s contained within it will perish out of existence. Satan has argued that that warning alone proves that our Creator stacked the deck against his chance of winning the right to live with that of his followers and continue with a dual kingdom rule. The outsiders agree with Satan, but Yahweh is dead serious about every statement She has ever made, and if Satan should get the upper hand, this creation / generation living will have witnessed the final chapter in this reality.

Much is at stake. The final analysis is this: If the United States does not continue to spiral into the pit of oblivion and appears to be on the rise, Yahweh has set an hourglass that will run out for not just Satan and his followers, but everyone and everything within this reality. Everything will be completely obliterated out of existence.We have received the warning from Her, and we are diligently continuing to try and bring to bear Her prophecies before the hourglass runs dry.

1 Peter 4:15 “None of you, however, should suffer as a murderer, a thief, an evildoer, or as a meddler.”

Note that a “meddler” is set apart. The Gods of Eternity that meddle in our affairs are set apart from this reality, but are deeply involved in our affairs.

Matthew 24:35 “Heaven and earth will pass away, but My words will never pass away.”

Heaven representing the spiritual realms throne of authority carried over to all of creation, and the earth represents creation as a whole. View the heavens, it is filled with the same earth composed of this planet. Yahweh’s “words” are Her bond that holds this reality together. If they - Her words – fail, this experiment is over with.

Luke 16:17 “But it is easier for heaven and earth to pass away than for one stroke of a letter in the law to drop out.”

Easier for Yahweh to simply end all of existence. Her LAW binds Her. For it to be permanently broken, there will be no healing for any of creation.

2/14/11 China UFO Sighting Picture Marking

Seraiah: I’ll take you kids through a series of what was there. Everyone was looking up, but the veil was being thinned all around them. They just didn’t notice.

Regina: That’s what I thought – my very first thought actually, was “the veil thinning”.

Seraiah: Yep!

China has to receive a hard blow to keep them from taking over and becoming the sole ruler of this planet. They are so strong not only economically, but also militarily.

Dawn is looking at China for his throne replacement and still resisting the EU. He’s turning into a commie. lol

Could we have cast any funnier? We treat Dawn like he is a big joke. lol

If he’s watching, he knows better now .

Mama of the Spirit Realm

Crop these were marked from:

Next is the full pic. Remember the head I said you should pay attention to. It is your reference point of where the crop was taken from. Joe informed me that wasn’t a crop. It was a closeup; so I’m uploading another that reveals the entire screen shot.

Last one. Happy Valentines day ladies

Remember, Mother is nature; She moves to and fro across this planet with Her energy; and She makes faces in trees.  You’ll never look at a tree the same again because She will be staring back at you if only you’ll look closely

Deborah: Thank you Seraiah

Regina: I was driving to work today. Had just turned out of my drive and a big tree caught my attention. It’s limbs were reaching out in front of my car. My first thought, “Yahweh”. You’re right – we can never look at a tree the same way.

Check out where you paused the video:

0.07 1:47 (1+4+7=12)

3/22/11 Demons fighting with LOZ

Joe: Demons fighting with LOZ to try and halt that Mega storm in Pacific. Lots more unmarked in that pic children. I love that pic because it is SO REVEALING children. Thank you to Deborah for sharing.

The LOZ is spread thin…And even though Mother has reanimated only those of our side, the demons are again gaining ground on kill percentages in taking out the holy warriors, especially those still fighting in Japan. Michael ordered the LOZ to go to a defensive position there instead of an offensive.

3/25/11 Visual End Times Sign

There’s more to the Sign children, but what I noted is the artery of it’s meaning. I’m sorry I cannot answer any questions in my message center at present. Much is going on as the lit fuse in the middle east is quickly spreading. The LOZ are back on the offensive in Japan and other areas of the earth. Though I feel sorrow for those affected in Japan, and those of Libya and other volatile places in this sick world, I must maintain my integrity to Mother by saying that Her Will be done for all concerned in ending Satan’s misguided rule, and may Her Son’s rule come swiftly so that the suffering of those on this planet is cut short. Amen.

3/27/11 “Industrial Site” Mars

Joe: The study of Mars will reveal how well Mother’s chosen warriors do their work. It is a testimony that is now easily seen and discerned. And when the old Joint Command became self reliant upon their own desires, they too went the way they sent so many other ancient worlds. All is a lesson for future reference so that past mistakes might not be repeated children.

Regina: Very Clear

Joe: On the lower face I marked do you children see his left hand pointing up to the waistline of the shirtless caste figure - for it is incomplete in the pic? It is symbolic of “losing his shirt” in reference to losing everything.

Regina: I see the one pointing… I see a lot of small and large face casts, so I’m trying to separate out. Is it near the hook on the left?

Joe: The sword’s handle sticking up from the family jewels means no more line of descent from that creation in existence. That is an imprinted record on Mars. The spirits that cast those images were of the old Joint Command, and you know what happened to most of them – except save a few obedient that remained faithful to Mother. Do you see the body depicted in the pic? I marked his hand pointing to Sash or rope around waist.

Regina: I’m not sure – give me a few minutes and I’ll mark what I see and post here.

Joe: The body is incomplete. Stomach and lower half is all that is in pic. That planet also had dinosaurs at one point in time. There should be a record in some of those pics from Mars.

Regina: Oh goodness I was looking on the wrong side of the photo. I marked the ”fast like a viper strike” as a closed eye in the profile of a face.

Joe: Well child, that is also part of the cast. It is multiple in its meanings The closed eye represents death to that race. They are no longer conscious in creation. Now do all of you understand why there are EXIT DOORS? If you do, that is where they were disposed of. Not the vessels per se, but the spirit energies they contained. Your past training in pic reading has come to full life children.

Regina:

Seraiah was a very good and patient teacher.

Joe: yes he was child. And you did very well in that marking. Look to the top at where you formed an L, and you will see the small ones – the true size of the JC.

Regina: There’s a whole bunch of ‘em in there. I always see the small casts the best.

Joe: Yes, lots of them. Consistent with what you have all been taught, and all spiritual in nature. In the spirit world, our true size without casting larger is that of a BEE.

The “JC” is also very prominent in one place in the pic.

Here’s where they noted the Exit in next pic children.

So children, those that can read casts, they can see everything that has happened om every world in existence, because of the pics available. The record is repeated throughout the planets over and over in various casts left behind. Just like the Indian pics Seraiah taught you long ago. A tale of death by the white settlers and government. All things recorded, even in small rocks or stones, petrified wood, vegetation that is reappearing in new growth, and trees and mountains, water reflections, etc…

3/30/11 Overlapping a Picture for Revelation

Joe: Do you children understand overlapping a pic? It’s when you are viewing a video and you stop frame it and slowly merge two frames together. It takes away the veil if anything is present. Would you like to see an example? Seraiah taught me this :

Do you see the spirits that become visible in the lapping effect? Not the main character of the pic or that of the NASA vehicle. It is by the aid of those two pics that a window was opened that was previously veiled, Understand?

I can’t tell if the one pulsed down that is the topic of the video, is an holy ghost or a convert. But I see lots of spirits that did not vibrate down children. They are unveiled by merging the two frames. Seraiah said it is like adding a filter or changing light spectrum to reveal what is hidden. The question I’m asking myself since he is not here, is which pic merged pic were they actually cast in?

Regina: Casts seem to happen in the blink of an eye – do spirits normally move very fast? It’s not often that I notice them staying in one spot for long in the pictures that I take and when they do, I’m sure to take notice because I feel there’s a reason.

Joe: Where they cast they usually leave an impression, but they move on. In the pic, that is a pulsed down spirit sitting and taking in the view

Regina: Ohh…Impression as in “residual energy”? Talk about ” leaving an impression!” Spirits do it best! lol

Joe: Yes, an impression that leaves a residual record. Like when you leave tracks in the sand showing you had been there. That spirit is a woman with at least one child.

Regina: I think I see old JC casts also…a mamre bottom right, in the sand. Yes, there’s a large J C right next to it.

Joe: Yes Regina I see the JC.

Joe: This might be a way to unveil the Azmon Barrier. Do you think they might call it matrixing? lol Merge a video shot of the earth with another pic and it might come through in the background.

Regina: Does the Pope wear a funny hat? lol

Joe: lol I see your point child. The odds of forming random human shapes in a merged set of pics is astronomical considering what those two contained. The spirits are undoubtedly in that space, of either her presence or the NASA equipment. Or both.

Regina: I’ll try to find a video of the earth’s atmosphere and see if I can get it to overlap.

Joe: Just stop the pic and slowly back up or move forward until you start to overlap one another. Then shoot it child.

Regina: It’s hard to find one that transitions the frames rather than jumping.

Joe: If you had filters to experiment with, you could probably achieve the same effect of unveiling.

Regina: Okay here’s 2 that might work…I see casts, but I can’t confirm if they’re Azmon or not.

#1 Marked I don’t know how large they cast at the Barrier, but I’m seeing formation and rows…

#2 Marked

Joe: Oh my child, I see them. I lightened it and they are very prominent child. Well done Regina!

Regina: I’m happy I was able to find one that would work, with our Mother’s guidance.

Joe: A science of merging two planes together. You need to experiment and develop this Regina. You are the scientist child.

Regina: I will try, but I’m struggling a little right now with being able to fit in everything I want to do – pray that Mother help me to balance out my time.

Joe: Do as your heart dictates child. What this merging is doing is verifying what has been taught to each of you.

Regina: You know, I just had the thought about how this lesson seems extremely timely considering that the two planes will be merged at Armageddon, and all that is invisible will be seen…

Joe: Yes, that is true. I will return when I do some light alterations on your pic of the Azmon Barrier. It is very good child.

Everything recorded in the spirit realm is cast over the actual physical thing that it represents. The cast tells a story of what lies beneath it.

Crop circle creation theory: physics, not aliens

As reported by Yahoo.news and many other major MSM news sources in

August, 2011

“The question led researcher Richard Taylor of the University of Oregon to rule out at least some traditional explanations of the tools involved in creating the circles. Taylor contends that in the modern age, planks and ropes (to flatten plants) and even bar stools to jump from one area to another undetected, are just too cumbersome to produce results in the comparatively brief period of their creative incubation. Instead, he argued that latter-day crop circle auteurs use high-tech gadgets such as GPS monitors to place the shapes and magnetrons (tubes that use electricity and magnetism to generate intense heat) to cause the crop stalks to fall over at high speed.

Can any of this speculation be proven? Not really–at least not until a certified crop-circle fabricator steps forward to claim responsibility and reveal the various tricks of the trade. But as Matin Durrani, editor of Physics World, put it, at least Taylor gives us an explanation that doesn’t hinge on the handiwork of alien life forms. Taylor “is merely trying to act like any good scientist–examining the evidence for the design and construction of crop circles without getting carried away by the side-show of UFOs, hoaxes, and aliens,” Durrani writes.

‘UFO’ sightings above crop circle fields

Source: Newbury Today August 2011

AFTER the crop circle has come the almost obligatory UFO sighting. This spectacular formation appeared overnight on July 28 in a field at West Woodhay.

It immediately attracted hundreds of sightseers and simultaneously earned the ire of landowner Harry Henderson, who dismissed it as the work of trespassers. But even those artists who lay claim to some of the designs that appear in the fields each year have seen strange lights associated with the formations.

Now Newbury businesswoman Bonni Southey has reported unexplained light phenomena after she decided to visit the area. She said: “We were having a look to see if the crop circle was still there. Looking across to the horizon above and to the right of the crop circle formation we saw first one bright, static light, which then disappeared and re-appeared again about two miles away in a matter of seconds. “It hovered there for a couple of minutes and a second light slowly appeared next to it, and then a third. We watched these for quite a while – about 15 minutes – and then decided to try and get closer to them, driving over towards Ashmansworth. We then lost them geographically, or they disappeared completely.”

Ms Southey, who runs Holistic Family Health in Newbury, added: “We couldn’t determine their shape but they looked elongated and had a twinkling appearance – definitely not stars, planes or helicopters. There was no noise, but they kept fading and then re-appearing, sometimes in the same place and at other times a distance from where they had faded.”

Those who oppose a purely mundane explanation for at least some of the designs point to intricate ‘weaving’ of the cereal; to bent but unbroken stalks even in brittle crops, to apparent changes at the cellular level and to the fact that in 1991 an intricate design appeared outside the then Prime Minister John Major’s country residence, despite the fact that the field is a maximum security zone patrolled 24- hours a day.

The West Woodhay formation, dubbed the cosmic serpent by enthusiasts, spans 11 tractor tram lines and is one of the largest ever seen in the UK. Last month Physics World magazine speculated that the designs are possibly created using microwaves generated by a device called a magnetron, directed by GPS satellite.

Those of mankind, who study and theorize where crop circles come from and what they mean, have taken no note of the writing nor those symbols within the circles. They cannot see the messages hidden within because they are blinded to what is being revealed. Father is the Great Mathematician. They do not recognize that one of the revelations in all crop circle designs is that of intelligent design. Like all things Father creates, intelligence is born into Her works.

2 Kings 21:13 “I will stretch over Jerusalem the measuring line [used on] Samaria and the mason’s level [used on] the house of Ahab, and I will wipe Jerusalem clean as one wipes a bowl—wiping it and turning it upside down.”

Job 38:5 “Who fixed its dimensions? Certainly you know! Who stretched a measuring line across it?”

Isaiah 28:17 “And I will make justice the measuring line and righteousness the mason’s level.” Hail will sweep away the false refuge, and water will flood your hiding place.”

Isaiah 34:11 “The desert owl and the hedgehog will possess it, and the great owl and the raven will dwell there. [The LORD] will stretch out a measuring line and a plumb line over her for [her] destruction and chaos.” The astute of mankind believe they created math. They have no inclination of how low in IQ they actually are in comparison to Father’s capacity. What they cannot explain they write off as a hoax. The perfection of that and other genuine designs cannot be duplicated by anyone on this planet except for fallen angels and holy angelic warriors.

Father’s signs are to serve as a warning of what’s ahead. Others that do not come from Father are for deceiving mankind away from the warnings. Both signs are clearly marked as to who they come from, but mankind cannot see the markings anymore than they can see the intricate detail of spiritual casts in photos. They see only the surface of all things and scoff at what they do not comprehend.

Yahweh – Powerful and Mighty Warrior
By Regina

Habakkuk 3:4-15
4 [His] brilliance is like light;
rays are flashing from His hand.
This is where His power is hidden.
5 Plague goes before Him,
and pestilence follows in His steps.
6 He stands and shakes the earth;
He looks and startles the nations.
The age-old mountains break apart
the ancient hills sink down.
His pathways are ancient.
7 I see the tents of Cushan in distress;
the tent curtains of the land of Midian tremble.
8 Are You angry at the rivers, LORD?
Is Your wrath against the rivers?
Or is Your rage against the sea
when You ride on Your horses,
Your victorious chariot?
9 You took the sheath from Your bow;
the arrows are ready to be used with an oath.      

Selah

You split the earth with rivers.
10 The mountains see You and shudder; 
a downpour of water sweeps by.
The deep roars with its voice 
and lifts its waves high.
11 Sun and moon stand still in [their] lofty residence, 
at the flash of Your flying arrows,
at the brightness of Your shining spear.
12 You march across the earth with indignation;
You trample down the nations in wrath.
13 You come out to save Your people,
to save Your anointed.
You crush the leader of the house of the wicked
and strip [him] from foot to neck.

Selah

14 You pierce his head
with his own spears;
his warriors storm out to scatter us,
gloating as if ready to secretly devour the weak.
15 You tread the sea with Your horses,
stirring up the great waters.

Yahweh is a Mighty Warrior! Our God WILL be victorious!

Do you not feel the earth shaking? Have you not heard the reports? It shifts and quakes causing mountains to slide; they are breaking apart and sinking; rivers disappearing in the aftermath. Plagues and pestilence ravage from shore to shore. Drought and pestilence devour crops, leaving little to nothing as nourishment. The earth is twisted, it’s inhabitants are scattered. The sun scorches from above and waters rise, waves washing away entire populations. Waters are tainted, radiated, cesspools of filth and decay. Signs in the heavens appear overhead causing wonder and speculation while others are under foot.

Are you paying attention yet? Do you not see? Or are you blinded? It’s as plain as the nose on your face. Have you heard the report? You will hear it now, and here.

The nations will be trampled. Not a single one will stand. Our God is a Powerful, Mighty Warrior. Her word will be fulfilled.

Ezekiel 25:7 therefore I am about to stretch out My hand against you and give you as plunder to the nations. I will cut you off from the peoples and eliminate you from the countries. I will destroy you, and you will know that I am the LORD.”

Refinement
By Deborah

Yahweh never said the period leading up to the Millennium would be easy. All of us as slaves of Christ, whether saints or angels, flesh or spirit, are being tested and put through a cleansing fire. The fire reveals that which is truly there.

1 Corinthians 3:13 each one’s work will become obvious, for the day will disclose it, because it will be revealed by fire; the fire will test the quality of each one’s work.

Some will be strengthened by the fire. Others will be consumed by the process. How we come through it depends on our hearts and Mother’s perfect judgment.

Jeremiah 12:3 As for You, You know me, LORD; You see me. You test whether my heart is with You. Drag the wicked away like sheep to slaughter, and set them apart for the day of killing.

The refining process must do it’s work.

Daniel 12:10 Many will be purified, cleansed, and refined, but the wicked will act wickedly; none of the wicked will understand, but the wise will understand.

1 Peter 1:6-7 6 You rejoice in this, though now for a short time you have had to be distressed by various trials 7 so that the genuineness of your faith —more valuable than gold, which perishes though refined by fire —may result in praise, glory, and honor at the revelation of Jesus Christ.

Not only will we be refined and purified by fire, but so too will the earth.

2 Peter 3:7 But by the same word the present heavens and earth are held in store for fire, being kept until the day of judgment and destruction of ungodly men.

We must be ready for anything and willing to lose our lives.

Revelation 13:10 If anyone is destined for captivity, into captivity he goes. If anyone is to be killed with a sword, with a sword he will be killed. Here is the endurance and the faith of the saints.

Mother remembers those who remain faithful and hold onto their integrity.

James 1:12 Blessed is a man who endures trials, because when he passes the test he will receive the crown of life that He has promised to those who love Him.

Hold on to your faith no matter what. Yahweh always keeps Her word. We must also keep our’s to Her.

Revelation 11:18 The nations were angry, but Your wrath has come. The time has come for the dead to be judged, and to give the reward to Your servants the prophets, to the saints, and to those who fear Your name, both small and great, and the time has come to destroy those who destroy the earth.

We would like to announce the arrival of Book Two, the continuation of Chosen: End Times Truths Revealed.

Book Two starts where the first book left off and includes accounts from ministers Regina, Johanna, Deborah, and Elisha, describing their individual journeys and experiences in their service to Yahweh and Christ over the past several years in autobiographical form.

It is available in .pdf form for free via www.chosen.weebly.com and will be updated monthly.

The Journey Continues

Below is a sneak-peek of each of the books included in Chosen, Book Two

Regina

There are many days in which I feel as though I must stop and focus and just try to get through the next 24 hours, some days even just the next hour, and then that day passes and the next arrives and passes, and arrives until all of a sudden a year has passed, and then two and four and now five. It’s odd how time can seem to pass so slowly and quickly at the same time. Many of these days, the good and the not-so-good, I will recount here and many have receded to the deeper recesses of my mind but what I’m able to remember, I share with you here honestly and openly…

Johanna

On October 2nd or 3rd of 2005, I was on this website were there were camera’s placed through out peoples homes who claimed that they were being haunted. I have always liked supernatural things. I believed in ghost, angels and demons. I started talking to this woman and asked her how she see’s the things that she does. I also told her that I believed in spirit guides. She told me that she couldn’t help me with the guides but that she knew of a website where I could find some answers. She sent me the link to a forum by the name of “Beyond This World”. After looking at a few things and noticing that they had psychic exercises I decided to sign up to become a member…

Deborah

Word came to us toward the end of May 2010 that we were to begin documenting our experiences ending where Chosen left off. Each Minister is to produce a “book” of our own that will be incorporated into Chosen. Its a little daunting to say the least. I have not been journaling as Regina has been (it isn’t something I naturally do). Also, I actually do not have a very good memory. But I trust that those things that Father wishes us to recall we will. We have been guided by Michael to read the book of ACTS to guide us. It seems to focus on events that show times of strong guidance from/interactions with Holy Spirit…

Elisha

In 2006, I was able to reconnect with a long time friend. I found out she had co-authored a book. Considering how we had grown up together I was interested in the fact that she had written one and wanted to read it myself. She, Regina, sent me the book and some more details about it. I found out it was a lot to take in and did so in baby steps with much prayer and guidance from Father. I was blessed to freely ask any question of Regina and felt comfortable in doing so. I read the book with an open mind and while some of it confirmed my deepest suspicions other information provided was such an eye-opener…

2/6/11 Footstep Followers of Christ

Joe: As footstep followers of Christ Jesus whom set the pattern for those faithful in all things……..

Did Christ speak of grace more than he spoke of his Father’s warnings of the dire consequences for those that resist the Truth? Speaking of grace only – is “feel good” book selling – contribution raking in philosophy. No one likes hearing… about the consequences that will be borne by those outside of Yahweh’s grace. And where the “good news” about the Ransom Sacrifice needs to be spoken of, it is not the only message that Christ shared. He was not killed for speaking of good things – but was instead crucified for being bluntly truthful to those that would receive no grace because of their heart conditions. So those that claim to be true footstep followers of Christ, they must walk in his true path, if not, then they are presenting themselves as being absolved from speaking the whole truth. It’s true that people do not like to hear of the swords opposite edge, because it speaks of wrath, but that did not hold back Christ, whom is the pattern for all true Christians, from divulging the Truth in its entirety. Are you a true footstep follower, or a sounding board for only that which attracts the largest number of people whom do not seek the Truth in its entirety? Search your hearts for the wisdom in this matter. Take up your torture stake and follow Christ, but know that with that torture stake comes torture, or you are missing the mark.

Who is Jesus? God Yahweh, or Her Son?

Matthew 14:33 “Then those in the boat worshiped Him and said, “Truly You are the Son of God!”

…Did Jesus say worship and serve him , or God?

Luke 4:8 “And Jesus answered him, “It is written: Worship the Lord your God, and serve Him only. “

Matthew 4:10 “Then Jesus told him, “Go away, Satan! For it is written: Worship the Lord your God, and serve only Him. “ 

He did not tell Satan to worship him, because he is not Yahweh.

John 4:21 “Jesus told her, “Believe Me, woman, an hour is coming when you will worship the Father neither on this mountain nor in Jerusalem.” 

Worship his Father, not him. He represents Yahweh, because he is then image – exactly like Yahweh in respect to following the path Yahweh laid out for him.

John 4:22-24 (Holman Christian Standard Bible) ” You Samaritans worship what you do not know. We worship what we do know, because salvation is from the Jews. But an hour is coming, and is now here, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth. Yes, the Father wants such people to worship Him. God is spirit, and those who worship Him must worship in spirit and truth.” 

Do you worship his Father whom is also his Mother? Do you know why he referenced ancient Israel which is what the Jews were?: I will share a secret that comes from Heaven. Yahweh is also Israel. Israelite – that being the new class of Spiritual Israelites is representative of this TRUTH: ISRAELITE corresponds to Yahweh being the LIGHT of Israel, i.e. ISRAEL is the LIGHT of all of Her creation. Literally so. She is Israel in the feminine literal sense.

‎”We worship what we do know,” Does Christ worship himself, or was he referencing a higher power? If Christ is God Almighty, why would he worship himself? It does not add up that Christ is our Mother Yahweh. I know Christ in a way that humans have not known him since the time he was on this earth, and I know irrefutably that he is not Yahweh.

I am a member of the holy ghost consortium that is made up of 144,000 Orders of humans that have crossed over to the Sanctity of Christ’s ruling leadership. Sprinkled with fire and made anew in spirit by our Mother Yahweh. She has entrusted… me with the divulging of Heaven’s long guarded secrets. It is not without reason that Satan has been restrained along with his demons and converts from exposing that which has remained hidden until now. It is now revealed in order to bring the remaining pieces of the jigsaw puzzle to its completion.

Mark 9:49 “For everyone will be salted with fire.” 

To be sprinkled with this salt is to have your sins burned away. It is a sprinkling of the fire of Yahweh upon Her faithful. The salt is the seasoning of the Truth of Yahweh.

2/8/11 Life…It’s Complexity

Joe: Do you possess both male and female attributes?

In the above pic you are each looking at the sparks of life in the dividing of a single human cell. For research purposes, you can go to a list of links to become attuned to the division of human cells, but in all lifeforms that have cell division or other means of reproduction, the Life Pool (i.e. the Pool of Life) is established within all living things that reproduce and/or exist as living creations. The only thing that will be added from Heaven is the individual personage that comes forth at birth.

The above pic is the same as the pic below. It was stripped down to reveal what is hidden. If you will examine the pic below, you will see that at the time of division, that the two (male and female) attributes seem to be divided off of one another. Although this is true to some extent, both attributes actually remain in tack. So duplication of a line of decent is being established. At the next division of a new cell, the process is repeated. This division reflects Eve being divided off or from Adam. The spark of life was present in the rib taken from Adam, so all that was necessary or came into play was the Pool of Life delivering the persona and individuality of Eve’s gift of life. This is a two way street and so your persona can cease to exist once detachment of the slow moving human vessel of energy dies off with your persona being coupled to the brain area of the vessel and requires searing to the celestial energy once the coupler detaches itself- because remember- the persona is separate from the spark or sparks of life itself, whereas the spark of life is returned to our Mother Yahweh without need of your persona. If however,Yahweh holds your persona in memory, you will receive it back should you pass over. This process is similar to the division of a living cell, because as you pass you are separated from your human vessel, and at that time you are seared to the spiritual body that is your celestial energy. If Yahweh so chooses, and no searing effect takes place, then your persona dies and your spark of life simply returns on to Yahweh without your personality. In effect, you cease to exist except n Yahweh’s memory. If She chooses to forget your persona all together, as in the case of past Judgments of people, then Her memory is wiped clean of your persona or individuality.

http://img6.imageshack.us/img6/4016/1007865fullsize.jpg

So where does Life begin? Not just at conception. At conception, like with Eve’s birth into creation through the use of Adam’s rib, you receive your persona. Adam was living proof that he possessed both attributes, and even though Eve was divided off from him, he still possessed bot attributes, except that his male attribute was dominate. In Eve, she too possessed both attributes, and her female was most dominate.

Why is Mother Yahweh sharing this truth? So that you each can come to understand how She can be both female and male at the same rime. But in Her case, She can project whichever attribute (male or female) that She desires for whatever situation arises. She can be Yahweh the Warrior, or Israel the Mother of all Light.

In the division of this human cell, note that one face is male nd one is female as the split occurs. Becoming either of the two does not detract from the other because the new cell still contains both attributes as does the cell it divided off of. This is evident in the next division as the cells continue to divide under Mother’s natural law pf Life’s splitting of the atomic structures process. And I bet everyone thought the splitting of an atom was mankind’s invention

References on cells dividing:

Look for Yahweh’s identifying symbols. The 8 is evident.

http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2010/03/100310091652.htm

Some people might believe that the splitting of the atom is something entirely new, but there is nothing new under the Sun.

Ecclesiastes 1:9 “What has been is what will be, and what has been done is what will be done; there is nothing new under the sun.”

In the vast expanse of Space this has been going on since the birth of creation, which was also Israel our Mother splitting some of the atomic structure of Her internal self. It was necessary since and even though She is spirit She is also comprised of rock. The rock is the part of her that is physical in a literal sense, because She truly is all things comprised within Her creation. I know many people have wondered why in creation Yahweh would have so much energy that is comprised of rocks and stones flying about in the cast expanse. Well. that is the reason, because they are indeed part of Her own makeup. And is why She refers to Her Self as the:

Deuteronomy 32:4 “”The Rock—His work is perfect; all His ways are entirely just. A faithful God, without prejudice, He is righteous and true.”

The complexity of life, with cell division as well as what everything entails to endow not only mankind with intelligence in the form of individual personages, but also every living thing on this planet as well as Her other creations spread through out the heavens, the primary process remains the same. I know some will say that not all cell division is for the purpose of reproducing life. Technically, most cell reproduction is for renewal of the present slow moving energy of the vessel’s they divide within. But it is still possible to call upon the Life Pool to send another personage by the cloning process. Since that is not the normal natural intention of Yahweh’s Laws of Nature to clone, what happens when Nature is perverted? Though the Life Pool is tapped to add the new personage to what appears to be an identical look-a-like in every respect, though the persona is different, the aging process is accelerated. Why is that children? Because the perversion, like with the pre-flood Nephilim children that became giants, is also out of the norm that it was intended for. When you make a copy of a musical tape off of a master copy, it sounds good in quality, but if you successively copy each copy or generation down, then you lose or sacrifice the quality you originally obtained from the master copy. Under Yahweh’s Laws, when reproduction takes place, and where sinful effects are not causing harmful effects such as birth defects, the generations of decent do not suffer a degraded effect.

2/10/11 Is Yahweh Also Israel?

Joe: Exodus 4:21-23 “The LORD instructed Moses, “When you go back to Egypt, make sure you do in front of Pharaoh all the wonders I have put within your power. But I will harden his heart so that he won’t let the people go. Then you will say to Pharaoh: This is what the LORD says: Israel is My firstborn son. I told you: Let My son go so that he may worship Me, but you refused to let him go. Now I will kill your firstborn son!” 

If Yahweh is Israel the Mother, why does She refer to Her ancient Israelites as being typified as Her “firstborn son”? The answer is simple. If you study the Scriptures you piece the jigsaw puzzle together. As you do, you learn that Christ is Michael the firstborn Son of our Mother whom gave birth to him as pointed out in Proverbs 8. Later in the Gospels about Christ you learn that if you have seen Christ you have also seen his Father. Literally so because Christ represents Yahweh in every detail of male attributes. But, Yahweh mirrors one thing off of another, and so Israel – the ancient people She gave birth to reflect Her Son Michael whom She designates as Her “firstborn son,” as a revelation that She then reflected Her Motherhood upon that nation by giving them Her female name and taking them as a wife unto Her male counterpart of being Yahweh. Done so, because at that time She was guiding them in the male attribute of being Yahweh the Father and Warrior. By entwining Her female name within the Word and attaching it to Her remnant of Israel, She encrypted that secret for revealing in this end time we are all living within. As a precursor, Israel had Michael form Adam first – being a man to reflect Michael, and then in a reverse process of Israel and Michael, i.e. female first and then male, She reversed the process with humankind’s start in creation with Eve reflecting our Mother Israel as the Mother of all humankind. Yet, Israel the Mother is the Mother of the START of all things in creation. Michael was Her START, or only creation. From Michael all of the invisible and visible creation came forth. Like Adam who all humanity came forth from including Eve’s existence, Michael is who every creation spawned forth from. So, Eve typified Mother, but because Michael was the bi-creator of his own ability to form and fashion what exists, Mother Israel gave him prominence by allowing Adam to be created first, and then Eve wa taken from Adam just like Michael came forth from Israel our Mother. Out of He4r literal BODY. And children, that is the secret now revealed in these end times. It explains why Mother chose that name for Her chosen people and why they were for Her Great Name’s Sake.

Isaiah 48:11 “I will act for My own sake, indeed, My own, for how can I be defiled? I will not give My glory to another.” 

Satan defiled Israel’s Great Name in the Sacred Garden of Eden, and Israel acted in the male attribute by becoming Her Warrior Self – Yahweh to defend Her Name and gain back Her reputably standing before the heavenly family and the Gods of Eternity that are onlookers.

Regina: Joe, is it permitted to call Mother by Her female name now?

Joe: I’m following a guideline of Christ’s that was sent to me to convey to the masses as well as this ministry. In the past, Christ has been the only one permitted to use Mother’s female name. It has however now been permitted by those of the Consortium to use Her name since we view Her personage in the female form and are without blemished in Her eyes. But since She is still referred to as Yahweh by the male personage of being a Warrior during this time of conflict, those not yet drawn near Her throne by being sprinkled and washed pure, you must continue to call Her Yahweh. Although you have been through the furnace, you are still blemished in Her eyes until you are permanently separated from your defiled flesh. This does not occur until the rapture that will deliver and emancipate each of you from the blemish you are still attached to. To be made anew. Since I have already been emancipated, I am as Christ was when he was in the human vessel he used for a time.Israel has made Seraiah’s vessel clean in Her eyes.Therefore, I am permitted to now use Israel’s female name child.

Hebrews 10:22 “let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, our hearts sprinkled [clean] from an evil conscience and our bodies washed in pure water.”

April 25, 2011 – New adversary

Bebai – Alpha Command has released new information that they have been engaged in numerous battles outside the Azmon Barrier with another spiritual foe that has broken through and is now in Magog. Previously, they attacked Alpha outposts in the expanse, and they also had a large force at the vicinity of Orion in search of the LOZ is what Alpha believes. They attacked the LOZ headquarters and took prisoner what few sentries were stationed there. The brunt force of the LOZ are inside the barrier here at earth. The origin of the “Resister Force” – the name given them by Alpha Command – is not from within our reality, although an earlier report by Alpha stated they believed they were from within. Unless they are engaged in fighting two different adversaries, they have not made note of two new battlefronts, so we assume this is the earlier adversary force mentioned in the past communication. Other than the latest threat advised upon, they are energies in crafts, spiritual in their makeup (appearing celestial in their nature), and are combative, and believed to be here to assist Satan’s side in the spiritual war is all that has been released thus far from Alpha’s updated release to us. However, Jake unofficially informed me that the LOZ have already met resistance from them. It appears they intend to halt the LOZ’s mandate to destroy civilizations here on planet earth. Until more is brought to light, that’s all we have to share at this time. Keep your faith. All things rest in our Creator’s hands. If another god is involved, Yahweh Herself will have to deal with the ultimate outside threat to Her reality.

Lia – Thanks Bebai. We were informed the following on March 15 – Another race out in the expanse has arrived outside the barrier to engage Alpha. They are heavily armed and have attacked several of the Alpha outposts and are steadily making their way towards the Azmon Barrier. They are following the Ashkelons in rebelling against Yahweh’s Throne of Authority.

Bebai – Here’s the latest release from Alpha Command. Contact was made with the invading force. They halted their assaults and responded back.They specifically requested that Seraiah board the command vessel leading the assaults on the holy warriors. Michael insisted that he be the one they negotiated with since he is the Arch Commanding Angel over all holy forces, but they declined his offer. Seraiah was then summoned and dispatched to negotiate with them. That’s the point we are presently at. It appears they know and trust Seraiah. Possibly they are some species he came in contact with while serving Yahweh out in Eternity. There the God’s have an Assembly of Counsel at their Mount Basham. It has many peaks. On each peak is a presence that represents a God like Yahweh in that they live out in Eternity.

Proverbs 15:22 “Plans fail when there is no counsel, but with many advisers they succeed.” 

This applies to our Creator also. She communicates with the other Gods that like Herself in advising them, She is also given advice. If you understand that our Creator follows Her own guidance given each of us, then it is not hard to understand that She listens to the other peers of Her own stature.

Dictionary: “stature >noun 1 a person’s natural height when standing. 2 importance or reputation gained by ability or achievement.

-ORIGIN Latin statura, from stare ‘to stand’.” To understand this, you must remember that Yahweh’s reputation – being Her Great Name and past achievements were tarnished by rebellion. And one last thing as we await another update. The LOZ reported that many of the assaulting crafts markings are dissimilar, as well as variations in craft designs. The latter might be explained as being a variance in models of crafts, but the markings are either coded languages such as the holy angelic Orders have, or they represent a coalition of different species from different realities. If it is the latter, and I am only surmising without additional knowledge, then we are in for the fight of our lives. I’ll post any updates as they come across to me.

Jake released a photo to me that shows a confrontation outside the opposing crafts. Battles often occur within the spirit realm after unloading troops in a specific area. In this detailed pic you will note Satan’s dragon – made up of demons as they fly towards the LOZ troops that are being confronted by the new adversary.

Jake is relaying communications with the Adversary messages to the LOZ and vise versa. He just informed me that Seraiah sent his message coded from the Adversary vessel so that the enemy would not understand what he wants relayed to Michael. It is for the LOZ to immediately attack and destroy the command vessel without delay.

Michael just gave the order to carry out Seraiah’s coded message.

The command vessel was destroyed and the LOZ are on the offensive against the crafts still in that sector.

Lia – To attack while Seraiah is still in the vessel? Is he sacrificing himself??

Regina – If I know Seraiah, he feels it would be better to attack immediately while he’s on board than to wait. His faithfulness will earn him reanimation if it is Mother’s will.

Bebai – Yes, he felt it was necessary to attack without waiting for him to depart. It caught them off guard. Captured Adversary enemy have revealed that some of the gods in Eternity have sided against our Creator. They want Her to end the violence against Her creation or they have warned that they will destroy Her followers that refuse to defect from Her authority, and will exodus all other lifeforms to other waiting realities and then burn Her internally to a cinder like Yahweh did the goddess that mingled in Her affairs. They have cited the number of times She has used the word “terror” in Her Word, and they claim it proves She is not a God of love, but a vengeful God and a terrorist to Her own lifeforms from the microbes all the way up the ladder to Her more intelligent creations. They further claim that not only does She broadcast Her willingness to bring terror, but is doing it on a large scale that’s unacceptable to those taking a firm stand against Her. They are demanding the halt to all of Her hostilities. With that said, they seem to have failed to take notice that mankind is fighting amongst themselves.

Word from Jake. Seraiah has been reanimated. That’s one for the RECORD – in a swift return to the battlefront. Amen to our graciously kind and merciful Mother for the return of our faithful brother.

Red Light Experiment

Seraiah: This is part of a light experiment I conducted, using a variety of colored bulbs set against a glass reflection to see what I might get on film. Red by itself seemed to produce the best shots. I did not try to channel any visions; I was simply seeing what might show in the way of spirit energy. If you try this, place your light up high reflecting downward, and shoot downward. Try it with and without a flash.

Mixed Light Experiment

Seraiah: This is the second part of the Red Light Experiment, this time using a mixture of lights. If you use a mixture of lights, try and get them as small a watt as possible; use a dimmer switch to control the output of lighting.

Father’s Wrath

By Johanna

wrath – 1: strong vengeful anger or indignation

2: retributory punishment for an offense or a crime : divine chastisement

Father warns us throughout the Word about His wrath. His warnings started from the moment of creation. Prepare yourselves because His wrath is upon us.

Numbers 16:22 But Moses and Aaron fell facedown and said, “God, God of the spirits of all flesh, when one man sins, will you vent Your wrath on the whole community?”

He has uprooted people from their land because He was angry with them for abandoning the covenant with Him.

Deuteronomy 29:24-29 All the nations will ask, ‘Why has the LORD done this to this land? Why this great outburst of anger?’ Then people will answer, ‘It is because they abandoned the covenant of the LORD, the God of their fathers, which He had made with them when He brought them out of the land of Egypt. They began to worship other gods, bowing down to gods they had not known-gods that the LORD had not permitted them [to worship]. Therefore the LORD’s anger burned against this land, and He brought every curse written in this book on it. The LORD uprooted them from their land in [His] anger, fury, and great wrath, and threw them into another land where they are today.’ The hidden things belong to the LORD our God, but the revealed things belong to us and our children forever, so that we may follow all the words of this law.

The people try to omit His name in the work place, schools, sports and out of the Pledge of Allegiance. They have even tried to remove “In God We Trust” from our currency.

Psalm 79:6 Pour out Your wrath on the nations that don’t acknowledge You, on the kingdoms that don’t call on Your name,

Fathers wrath is coming. What will you do? Will you turn to Him and repent before it is to late or will you do nothing and suffer His wrath?

Isaiah 13:3 I have commanded My chosen ones; I have also called My warriors, who exult in My triumph, to execute My wrath.

Unity in Mind and Voice

By Deborah

Romans 15:5-6 “Now may the God of endurance and encouragement grant you agreement with one another, according to Christ Jesus, so that you may glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ with a united mind and voice.” 

To enter into Christ’s Kingdom, we must be in union with our God and King. At this time, those who live on the planet aren’t even in union with each other let alone their Creator. We all can see and experience on a daily basis the division and chaos around us. Our hearts, minds, ears and eyes all take in this disease and hold onto it within ourselves. It is making us ill not only in our bodies, but in our hearts and minds.

Sin has caused imbalance and separation from our God Yahweh. There is only one way to get back to the perfection that was created at the beginning, and the process starts with the complete cleansing of everything tainted by sin on this planet. With this will come loss of life for some and the gaining of life for others. We know that Yahweh sent Her Son for each of us. It is the precious gift of Salvation and the forgiveness of sins. But we must accept that gift with a humble and obedient heart. To reject it leads to eternal death.

This month, the LOZ (Lions of Zion) will continue to bring forth prophecy as fierce storms and other plagues leave their mark all across the globe. The world governments have not surrendered to Yahweh and remain defiant. They will be crushed, of this you can be certain. For the individual, there is still hope. Yahweh knows our hearts. Turn now while you still have time with a united mind and voice.

We would like to announce the arrival of Book Two, the continuation of Chosen: End Times Truths Revealed.

Book Two starts where the first book left off and includes accounts from ministers Regina, Johanna, Deborah, and Elisha, describing their individual journeys and experiences in their service to Yahweh and Christ over the past several years in autobiographical form.

It is available in .pdf form for free via www.chosen.weebly.com and will be updated monthly.

The Journey Continues

Below is a sneak-peek of each of the books included in Chosen, Book Two

Regina

There are many days in which I feel as though I must stop and focus and just try to get through the next 24 hours, some days even just the next hour, and then that day passes and the next arrives and passes, and arrives until all of a sudden a year has passed, and then two and four and now five. It’s odd how time can seem to pass so slowly and quickly at the same time. Many of these days, the good and the not-so-good, I will recount here and many have receded to the deeper recesses of my mind but what I’m able to remember, I share with you here honestly and openly…
Johanna

On October 2nd or 3rd of 2005, I was on this website were there were camera’s placed through out peoples homes who claimed that they were being haunted. I have always liked supernatural things. I believed in ghost, angels and demons. I started talking to this woman and asked her how she see’s the things that she does. I also told her that I believed in spirit guides. She told me that she couldn’t help me with the guides but that she knew of a website where I could find some answers. She sent me the link to a forum by the name of “Beyond This World”. After looking at a few things and noticing that they had psychic exercises I decided to sign up to become a member…

Deborah

Word came to us toward the end of May 2010 that we were to begin documenting our experiences ending where Chosen left off. Each Minister is to produce a “book” of our own that will be incorporated into Chosen. Its a little daunting to say the least. I have not been journaling as Regina has been (it isn’t something I naturally do). Also, I actually do not have a very good memory. But I trust that those things that Father wishes us to recall we will. We have been guided by Michael to read the book of ACTS to guide us. It seems to focus on events that show times of strong guidance from/interactions with Holy Spirit…

Elisha

In 2006, I was able to reconnect with a long time friend. I found out she had co-authored a book. Considering how we had grown up together I was interested in the fact that she had written one and wanted to read it myself. She, Regina, sent me the book and some more details about it. I found out it was a lot to take in and did so in baby steps with much prayer and guidance from Father. I was blessed to freely ask any question of Regina and felt comfortable in doing so. I read the book with an open mind and while some of it confirmed my deepest suspicions other information provided was such an eye-opener…

1/31/11 Time Becoming Twisted

Crop Circle in Madisonville, TN. May 2011

Source: CropCircleConnector.com

The second, also first spotted on May 12, is a geometric crop formation in early green wheat in Madisonville, Tennessee. Madisonville had a formation that the ICCRA investigated and authenticated in 2007. This newly reported formation is located in the same field, in nearly the exact spot, and has nearly the same design, with only a few details different. As Madisonville also had a hoaxes formation in 2008 located across the street as the 2007 formation, we are eyeing this one with some suspicion, but another founder member of the ICCRA, Roger Sugden is enroute to do an investigation. We do have aerials of this, and will hopefully have permission to post soon. – Jeffrey Wilson

Well done to Olivier Morel and Francine Blake’s group for photographing this aerial shot of the formation at Innage, nr Chepstow. Gwent. Wales. Reported 22nd April. We know this was a long and expensive flight due to this there was great reluctance by other photographers to take to the air. Well done again as there is …nothing like an aerial shot to be able to grasp the over all effect of the crop circles.

Hannington, nr Cricklade, Wiltshire. Reported 7th May

Source: CropCircleConnector.com

I was out walking with my wife during the late morning near Hannington (Wilts) and there is almost certainly a crop marking immediately to the north of Ashmead Brake woodland and the footpath that passes it. I did not wish to venture into the field at chance of agitating the land owner but it almost certainly not an agricultural marking. There appear to be three curved triangles flattened with a smaller one in the centre. I am not too good with measurements but it is sizeable. This has made my day and is very exciting.

Fear Him

By Johanna

Why should we fear Father? Stop and take notice of events that are going on. Is it Father’s anger? Search the Word and see how many times fear is mentioned in the bible. What events are related with the word fear?

Psalm 64:8-10 They will be made to stumble;
their own tongues work against them.
All who see them will shake their heads. Then everyone will fear
and will tell about God’s work,
for they will understand what He has done. The righteous rejoice in the LORD and take refuge in Him;
all the upright in heart offer praise.

Psalm 76:6-8 At Your rebuke, God of Jacob, both chariot and horse lay still. And You – You are to be feared. When You are angry, who can stand before You?

Psalm 86:11 Teach me Your way, LORD, and I will live by Your truth. Give me an undivided mind to fear Your name.

Psalm 90:11 Who understands the power of Your anger? Your wrath matches the fear that is due You.

This planet and it’s inhabitants are corrupt. Soil, seed, air, water. Flesh, hearts, minds. Some are aware of this, and some are utterly unaware.

Hosea 7:3 [ Israel's Corruption ] They please the king with their evil, the princes with their lies.

2 Peter 2:19 They promise them freedom, but they themselves are slaves of corruption, since people are enslaved to whatever defeats them.

Transformation is coming.

1 Corinthians 15:50 [ Victorious Resurrection ] Brothers, I tell you this: flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God, and corruption cannot inherit incorruption.

We will shed that which enslaves us and become the children that Yahweh not only desires, but deserves. Through faith in Christ, we are made free.

Romans 8:21 that the creation itself will also be set free from the bondage of corruption into the glorious freedom of God’s children.

2 Peter 1:4 By these He has given us very great and precious promises, so that through them you may share in the divine nature, escaping the corruption that is in the world because of evil desires.

Woe to those who enslave the captives and do not release them. Blessed are those who are freed.

Exodus 6:6 “Therefore tell the Israelites: I am Yahweh, and I will deliver you from the forced labor of the Egyptians and free you from slavery to them. I will redeem you with an outstretched arm and great acts of judgment.

After looking at a few things and noticing that they had psychic exercises I decided to sign up to become a member…

Deborah

Word came to us toward the end of May 2010 that we were to begin documenting our experiences ending where Chosen left off. Each Minister is to produce a “book” of our own that will be incorporated into Chosen. Its a little daunting to say the least. I have not been journaling as Regina has been (it isn’t something I naturally do). Also, I actually do not have a very good memory. But I trust that those things that Father wishes us to recall we will. We have been guided by Michael to read the book of ACTS to guide us. It seems to focus on events that show times of strong guidance from/interactions with Holy Spirit…

Elisha

In 2006, I was able to reconnect with a long time friend. I found out she had co-authored a book. Considering how we had grown up together I was interested in the fact that she had written one and wanted to read it myself. She, Regina, sent me the book and some more details about it. I found out it was a lot to take in and did so in baby steps with much prayer and guidance from Father. I was blessed to freely ask any question of Regina and felt comfortable in doing so. I read the book with an open mind and while some of it confirmed my deepest suspicions other information provided was such an eye-opener…

1/31/11 Why Yahweh has slated the fall of the United States, Satan’s present throne.

Joe: [ The Coming of the Son of Man ] “Then there will be signs in the sun, moon, and stars; and there will be anguish on the earth among nations bewildered by the roaring sea and waves.”

You’ve seen the signs in the heavenly three, and that of the “roaring sea and waves” is representative of the people roaring, and the waves of discontent they ripple their governments with. As the financial collapse has effected all nations because all followed suit, so to will all feel the ripples of discontent as the domino effect takes place. Where past greed by the Egyptian government is the cause of the Egyptian crisis, the United States, though also a government that has fuel greed among the elite, and squandered the wealth of its citizens by treating them as second class subservient workers to fuel the pocketbooks of other nations, it will fall into discontent because of its large debt being called upon to be paid to the nations it has borrowed from. As the hidden insolvency comes to light due to the coming revelation that the gold reserve is depleted, all programs will be cut, and when no money is being used to quell those on hard times, the people will take to the streets and follow the pattern set by Egypt, because EGYPT is the setting for the reflection of the past when Moses delivered Yahweh’s children out of slavery. Satan will lose this throne and gain another in the his installment to that of the European Union whom will issue the World currency that will soon come into existence.

You are each watching the pieces of the jigsaw puzzle fall into place. The United States faces yet another dilemma. It prefers that the Egyptian ruler remain in place as an ally, but to keep its deception in place that it believes in equality and freedom, it must take a stand with the people, or else its true nature will becomes known. Is this Satan’s original plan for his children? No. But Satan cannot control the beast he has brought into existence. Like him, they became greedy for power and control. He cannot have the foundation he inspired when the original formers of the United States set this country into motion. Yahweh has steadily steered his prized child off course, just as he went off course from Yahweh. He was a rebel, and they are rebellious to his rule.

1 Peter 5:8 [ Conclusion ] Be sober! Be on the alert! Your adversary the Devil is prowling around like a roaring lion, looking for anyone he can devour.”

The above piece in the jigsaw puzzle only applies to those in opposition to his throne… of authority. He does not seek to devour his own children. If he did, then he would be absent his human family.

Proverbs 14:28 “A large population is a king’s splendor, but a shortage of people is a ruler’s devastation.”

Satan is the ruler of this world, so it applies to him as well.

Saying one’s self believes in Christ will not divide that one from Satan’s family unless they serve the Creator in Truth. Otherwise, that one remains in union with Satan. Deceiving one’s self that they are of Christ’s flock does not dissolve the unity they share as Satan’s brood. Yahweh and Christ can only accept those that worship in Truth and with sincerity. Knowing the Truth will not save anyone. Satan knows the Truth, and so do his demons. It requires a clean heart and a willingness to remain faithful once you’ve learned the Truth. Being blind to the Truth is no defense, because Yahweh says you must seek it like you were looking for a treasure. Falling short of the Truth with that of an unclean heart keeps the person in Satan’s family.

2 Peter 1:9 “The person who lacks these things is blind and shortsighted, and has forgotten the cleansing from his past sins.”

John 7:33 “Then Jesus said, “I am only with you for a short time. Then I’m going to the One who sent Me.”

If Christ is Yahweh, did he send himself? And who is he returning to if he is Yahweh? Doesn’t make sense doe it, unless Yahweh is also in existence and Christ is Her Son.

Hebrews 2:7 “You made him lower than the angels for a short time; You crowned him with glory and honor”

Micah 6:10 “Are there still the treasures of wickedness and the accursed short measure in the house of the wicked?”

This applies to the nations as well. The treasures are depleted. The short measures are those of everything you purchase being given in smaller quantity but higher prices.

Psalm 15:2 “The one who lives honestly, practices righteousness, and acknowledges the truth in his heart —” Can you acknowledge that what you have is the Truth? The jigsaw pieces are to help you see the Truth.

Psalm 25:5 “Guide me in Your truth and teach me, for You are the God of my salvation; I wait for You all day long.” Yahweh and Christ will guide you if you open your heart too the Truth.

Psalm 25:10 “All the LORD’s ways [show] faithful love and truth to those who keep His covenant and decrees.”

They must be kept after you are enlighten to the Truth of “the Way.” That is Yahweh’s Way, not man’s and Satan’s. Nations follow Satan’s path even though rebellious to him, because they are no less rebels to Yahweh’s Throne in Her eyes. If you follow the national path, you are of Satan’s brood. You must set yourself apart from this world. A good example is Enmeduranki. That demon is rebellious to Satan, but it does not absolve his opposition to Yahweh and Her Son. The two fallen angels are both rebels in Yahweh’s eyes. The only eyes that count. She balances the Scale of who belongs to Her and whom belongs to Satan.

Job 31:6 “let God weigh me with an accurate balance, and He will recognize my integrity.” Yahweh is fair in Her assessments. Don’t be found Tekel.

Daniel 5:27 “TEKEL [means that] you have been weighed in the balance and found deficient.”

Psalm 62:9 “Men are only a vapor; exalted men, an illusion. On a balance scale, they go up; together they [weigh] less than a vapor.”

Don’t place your faith in mankind.

Cordelia: Very well said Joe! Yahweh and Christ will not want people who show no interest in Them to be in Christ’s coming Kingdom. The way you explain John 7:33 makes me laugh

Joe: Thank you. Many people believe our Mother and Christ are one in the same. Their reasoning astounds me, because when they cannot explain what is obviously an untruth, they resort to saying it’s “the mystery of the trinity.” All the time I spent in Heaven, I never heard of that mystery – except one writing at the old Great Hall’s repository, where it mentioned that Satan the Devil is also like a Black Widow, in that he spins his web of lies around those that he sucks the life out of. Then it mentions him being like a multi-headed beast that wanted to create the trinity for deception as the definition he inspired states:

Dictionary:

trinity >noun (pl. trinities) 1 (the Trinity or the Holy Trinity) the three persons of the Christian Godhead; Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. 2 a group of three people or things.

-ORIGIN Latin trinitas ‘triad’, from trinus ‘threefold’.

The fallacy is, it’s a lie. Yahweh’s Holy Spirit is Her Active Force. It works under Mother’s guidance and not independently. The Son Christ, was the rebirth of Michael under that new and better name that Mother gave him along with authority over all of Her creation. Her excepted. And Yahweh, She is also the only real thing in creation, simply because She was not created. That makes Her Israel. Meaning. She “IS REAL.” That was part of a mystery, but has been revealed to discount Satan’s lie about the trinity. When Mother renamed some of Her faithful servants, like Abram to Abraham, or her Archenemy Dawn Lucifer to Satan the Devil, it was always to serve as a proper identification of a person or thing. Satan being also called a dragon and serpent, that aptly identifies his disposition. He is also like a roaring lion that is dangerous because it is on the hunt for its prey – Yahweh’s faithful ,- and being a black widow, he is deadly and spins not only webs of deception, but also as entanglements that bind and enslave people and spirits to do his will. In addition, the web can become so dense that it blinds its victims from the light and entwines them to false threads of fabrications he spins as truth. And lastly, the Great Hall’s mention of his Black Widow characteristic also made mention of the spider web he inspired as humankind’s Internet. Although we make use of it, he stole the concept from Heaven where real cyber-like spiritual space truly exists, not just computer to computer in a network. But, Satan must work with what he has available in order to try and copy or duplicate the things he had previously known in the heavens. There is nothing new under the sun, only a variation of past learned concepts.

Cordelia: The trinity falsehood is taught by all major Christian denominations including the three I’m familiar with: Methodist, Baptist and Assemblies of God. I used to wonder why Jesus prayed to Himself but was told He did that to show the Great Mystery of three-in-one Godhead, how there are three but they’re the same…The reasoning is this: if SO many Christians believe in it, how can it be wrong? That’s the great deception! So those that reject the trinity are all called cults. When these Christians read about something they’re not familiar with, right away they dismiss as falsehood. I dare them to pray to Yahweh. I’m so thankful that my guides helped me to take that leap of faith.

Do the math children, and analyze the situation. Then form your own conclusion.

Can Satan intervene and save his favored child? He’s trying, but his wits must be matched against our Mother Yahweh’s. Now, Satan’s opponent sent by Michael is set to halt his intervention. Will Satan win out, or will Seraiah rock him off his present throne? The mirror effect is this: Satan, once a prized friend and loyal subject and deputy to our Creator as Dawn Lucifer, and Seraiah, once a friend and loyal soldier to Satan, both now face each other in opposed positions. Mother Yahweh refers to Satan as a traitor of Her throne, and Satan accuses Seraiah of being a traitor to his throne. What goes around comes around. Satan is being taught a lesson about his own past conduct. Now he knows how it feels to be betrayed, and to have children of disobedience in your kingdom. As Yahweh lost control of Her Divine Plan and had to devise a War Plan, Satan must match wits and try to bring his own War Plan into harmony with his will. To do that, he must first gain control of his human family that are spiraling out from under his influence. Seraiah has vowed that Satan will not gain that control until he deserts his present throne for the one that will eventually end his kingdom rule on earth.

The United States says that the Egyptian government should respect the people that are protesting. but when it happens here, will the U.S. hold that view. or will they use force against their citizens to try and regain control? That control will never again be under this present government. The people of the United States are destined to come under the new Rome’s citizenship. By the 5th month of this year, everything will be moving towards that change.

If you do not want to be caught in the bedlam of the cities, there is still some time left. Group together and buy rural property where you can form a community and grow crops for sustenance. Try to obtain property with a fresh water supply… above ground. Build your shelter homes beneath the ground. Eventually Satan’s new rule will be crushed. If you are fortunate, and though you might have missed the first Rapture, there is a chance for a second one. By then you should have come to the conclusion that you were taught the Truth. Seek Yahweh and Christ with a clean heart. Pray for deliverance from this pit you are presently in.

Deborah: It’s no coincidence that the news report mentions gas at $5 and $5 billion more leaving the US economy.

Joe: Correct child. The present tax on fuel that has caused it to rise is for repayment of the funds that were printed and infused into the economy in a lost effort to revive it. Things will steadily go down hill. There is no climbing back out of this pit. All countries except for the E.U. and China will be bankrupt as this fall continues. Those two kingdoms will push against one another until war breaks out.

China is planning to invade Taiwan. Will the United States threaten its largest lender and honor its promise to Taiwan? China can sink the United States economically without firing a shot. Satan’s own pawns have maneuvered themselves into losing positions.

Satan wants to halt China’s plan. Seraiah wants them to follow through. This is part of the Chess War Board being fought in the background of the spirit realm.

Cordelia: The best of time, the worst of time! Oh Mother Yahweh, open the eyes of their hearts and keep our faith strong.

Joe - “Huge seismic burst jolts the Pacific?

http://theextinctionprotocol.wordpress.com/2011/03/25/huge-seismic-burst-jolts-the-pacific/

Children, I believe this was associated with the LOZ that are and have been trying to bring forth a tremendous sea quake in the middle of the Pacific Ocean. A colossal wave that spirals out in all directions is their intent. Of course though, it is not the demons  So they are battling it out. And from what Jake told me, the shadow arm of the U.S. government is prepping to use lasers against the LOZ in the depths of the earth by firing where Satan gives depth and locations of the LOZ in various underground regions of this planet. Their lasers are set to destroy positive energy.

Regina - I read in the news yesterday that scientists are going to drill 5 miles down into the earth. No coincidence I’m sure.

Joe – If they follow through, that will be the beasts reply to Mother Yahweh’s offer of mercy in exchange for governmental surrender.

‎1 Samuel 2:10 “Those who oppose the LORD will be shattered; He will thunder in the heavens against them. The LORD will judge the ends of the earth. He will give power to His king; He will lift up the horn of His anointed.”

Michael is the horn. He leads the LOZ. The USA, if they take this action will show they openly oppose Mother’s offer of mercy, and Michael will withdraw the offer for surrender early.

‎”Philippians 2:10 so that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow— of those who are in heaven and on earth and under the earth —” The key is “under the earth.”

The race that’s been living beneath the earth is now about to become involved in this spiritual war in all likelihood because of the planets upheaval. They had remained neutral and were willing to follow the WAY and not become involved with the spiritual war, but now things have changed and they are taking sides with neither the holy or the evil.. If they decide to surface, they will wage a war against both the LOZ and the demons and mankind:( Their underground kingdom is being rocked by the LOZ (and also from the two factions whom are fighting – LOZ and demons) whether intentional or not in their (LOZ’s) efforts to punish the topside world of creation. Thus far they have not engaged the LOZ or the demons in their own domain.

And yes children, there is a race under Mars, and other planets that the topside inhabitants were destroyed off of. The depths of planets are considered kingdoms of a different variety. And during the Great Flood, they were not affected because they live in a fiery domain and are a completely different species that dwell in planets, although none are related to one another in genesis . In likeness though, they are very much alike as fire beings.

(Quoting Regina) “I read in the news yesterday that scientists are going to drill 5 miles down into the earth. No coincidence I’m sure.”

Well, I’m surprised that the underground dwellers have not attacked mankind in the past for nuclear underground blasts. If they enter the war, they will set the topside ablaze. The drilling operation might spark more than they are ready for on the top. Satan has probably kept their existence a secret from his beast, hoping to not have a confrontation with those that dwell in the earth.

Revelation 5:3 “But no one in heaven or on earth or under the earth was able to open the scroll or even to look in it.”

Revelation mentions them and the scroll children. Mother must have expected their involvement.

Revelation 5:13 “I heard every creature in heaven, on earth, under the earth, on the sea, and everything in them say: Blessing and honor and glory and dominion to the One seated on the throne, and to the Lamb, forever and ever!”

Evidently, not all of the underground dwellers will become involved. Some are recorded as giving blessing and honor and glory and their dominion to Yahweh and Christ.

Giving dominion means all creations wherever they might dwell, give their entirety willingly over to our Mother and Christ’s rule.

Like an electric ell, you don’t handle it. And that is why there is a separation from Yahweh’s fire creations and those that are flesh and blood. They are not meant to mix with one another. Coming in contact would be disastrous. Each to his own domain. One thing for one existence, and another for its existence, but all belong to Yahweh, just like those that live in hot stars and migrate to another as one dies out. It is part of their natural cycle of change.

Like the oceans of earth that presently team with diverse sea life, but are now dying, the expanse can be compared to the seas. because it too teams with all sorts of life. Yahweh is not limited to any one species. She likes diversity. That is born out in the creation of this planet and all that exists upon and within it.

1/24/11 We are Surrounded by the evidence that Dawn Lucifer was a traitor

Joe: We are surrounded by the evidence that Dawn Lucifer was a traitor, and sought to defy Israel because he did not believe She would take on Her male attribute of Yahweh the Warrior to square the sinful conduct perpetrated against Her Royal Crown.

He confused love and justice for weakness when combined. He was wrong on that assumption. As Christ spoke in the past – “Don’t assume…”

Johanna: When you assume something you are leaning on your own understanding.

Regina: Matthew 10:34 “Don’t assume that I came to bring peace on the earth. I did not come to bring peace, but a sword.

When I look at the picture above as a thumbnail, it looks like a fishbowl with fish and jellyfish and a scuba diver in it.

Joe: We are living in a fishbowl. That is why the earth’s affairs are a theatrical spectacle to those in the spirit realm. All things both seen and seemingly hidden are in full view.

1 Corinthians 4:9 “For I think God has displayed us, the apostle…s, in last place, like men condemned to die: we have become a spectacle to the world and to angels and to men.”

Mother has unveiled everyone and everything – even the safe zones are not concealed from Her eyes.

Jeremiah 16:17 “for My gaze takes in all their ways. They are not concealed from Me, and their guilt is not hidden from My sight.”

Those thrown alive into the Orange Plane prison are bombarded by their dead comrades considered as waste.

Nahum 3:6 “I will throw filth on you and treat you with contempt; I will make a spectacle of you.”

Those of mankind that commit treacherous crimes in secret, they are watched in secrecy by the holy ghosts that serve as witnesses against them (observers of conduct) in the assembly of Heaven where all is revealed to those that will mark them with a hook and apprehend them for justice to take its course against all evil perpetrated in our Mother’s creation. No sin goes unnoticed.

Proverbs 26:26 “Though his hatred is concealed by deception, his evil will be revealed in the assembly.”

Criminals seek to conceal their crimes from mankind, but all is revealed on the other side where true justice is meted out.

Genesis 37:24 “Then they took him and threw him into the pit. The pit was empty; there was no water in it.”

Each criminal of creation passing to the other side is incarcerated in a dark realm where they thirst for relief from what was awaiting them.

And even the nation of the earth cannot escape the treachery they have perpetrated. Yahweh sinks them farther into the pit of desolation they’ve created by following Satan’s guidance coupled with our Mother’s intervention.

Psalm 9:15 “The nations have fallen into the pit they made; their foot is caught in the net they have concealed.”

Balancing the scales of justice against those whom are non repentant and do not come under the Ransom Sacrifice.

Deuteronomy 19:21 “You must not show pity: life for life, eye for eye, tooth for tooth, hand for hand, and foot for foot.”

Christ is the only hope out of this world destined for destruction. Yahweh is the only One that can effect the escape from what is destined to those left behind. She provided the only hope and the escape for those found worthy.

2 Samuel 22:2-4 (Holman Christian Standard Bible) “He said: The LORD is my rock, my fortress, and my deliverer, my God, my mountain where I seek refuge. My shield, the horn of my salvation, my stronghold, my refuge,and my Savior, You save me from violence.I called to the LORD, who is worthy of praise,and I was saved from my enemies.”

To be taken to a stronghold by deliverance on to the Mountain of Mother Israel, where refuge from the coming horrendous violence will be provided. With Yahweh, no one can touch us, because our Mother is Israel upon Mount Zion.

Cordelia: “Christ is the only hope out of this world destined for destruction.” I’ll be quoting that often. It never ceases to amaze me how every time Bible verses from different books come together so nicely – Yahweh is most worthy of praise!

Major Temblors Can Set Off Small Eruptions but Not Big Ones, Researchers Say – Seismologists have revived a longstanding question in the wake of recent earthquakes: Can a giant temblor in one location trigger another large one thousands of miles away? A new study provides the first compelling evidence that such big, distant events – which may appear to be linked when they occur within months of each other – are likely not connected at all. “A big quake rings the earth like a bell and can trigger little quakes” halfway across the planel. But apparently it doesn’t trigger other big quakes over such great distances.

Geophysicists have long known that major quakes unleash bursts of energy that travel around the globe in uncertain ways. But now some scientists speculate that only sustained pressure can significantly move fault lines and thus trigger other large temblors. In addition, energy dissipates as it travels, so quakes pack a much weaker punch by the time their shockwaves reach a fault line far away. The issue has become more pressing in the aftermath of several large, destructive earthquakes that have taken a deadly toll in the past 15 months, striking China, Haiti, Chile, New Zealand and now Japan. On Thursday a 6.8-magnitude toll struck Myanmar, killing at least 70 people. But long-term data reveal no large increase in global seismic activity, even for big quakes. Since consistent record-keeping began in 1964, the number of big temblors seen globally has stayed fairly constant: An average of 17 quakes of magnitude 7.0 or higher has been recorded each year.

In 1992, a 7.3-magnitude temblor in Landers, California, “lit up the whole western U.S. with quakes over the next few hours and days.” The event altered the eruption cycle of geysers at Yellowstone National Park, some 680 miles away. Similarly, a big Alaska temblor in 2002 led to a swarm of smaller quakes in Yellowstone, knocked houseboats off their moorings in Seattle and even sloshed the water of a lake in Louisiana. The 8.8-magnitude event that rocked Chile in 2010 also led to an increase in micro-earthquakes in central California, a few hours after the main shock. The huge 2004 temblor in Indonesia led to more frequent “repeating earthquakes” in a section of the San Andreas fault in California, and may even have weakened that fault. But due to the type of sustained energy needed to trigger a large quake, residents of California don’t face a higher seismic risk because of the Indonesia, Chile or Japan quakes, researchers said. A team studied a 30-year seismographic record of all possible quakes larger than magnitude 5 that might have been triggered by every quake of magnitude 7 or larger. Their conclusion: “There is not evidence for very large earthquakes promoting other very large earthquakes at a global scale,” although big aftershocks can occur around the original rupture.

BURMA / MYANMAR - Earthquake toll rises. At least 75 people are nnow eported to have been killed and many more injured after the powerful 6.8 earthquake struck north-eastern Burma on Thursday. The quake struck near the Lao and Thai borders, and was felt as far away as the Thai capital Bangkok, and in the Vietnamese capital, Hanoi. The town of Tachileik and surrounding villages in Shan state appear to have borne the brunt of the earthquake. There are fears the casualties could be much higher.

Burma is ill prepared to deal with natural disasters. Communication systems and infrastructure are poor and the military government, still in charge until the handover to a new civilian-led administration, tends to limit the flow of information. It is likely to take some time before a clear picture of the disaster emerges.

Several hundred buildings collapsed north of the town of Tachileik, in mountains near the border with Thailand. Roads and bridges have been damaged making affected areas hard to reach. “We are trying to reach the remote areas. The military, police and local authorities are trying to find some people injured in those affected areas but the roads are still closed.” One woman was killed in the border town of Mae Sai in Thailand and slight damage has been reported to some buildings but major towns and cities appear to have escaped relatively unscathed.

In neighbouring Laos, no casualties have been reported. Earlier reports suggested there had been two strong earthquakes moments apart in the same area, but the USGS later clarified that there had been just one quake. On 11 March, a 5.4-magnitude earthquake struck just north of the area, 225km (140 miles) southwest of Dali in Yunnan, southern China. That was the same day as the 9.0-magnitude quake and tsunami hit Japan; however, Japan is on a different tectonic plate.

BURMA – Junta Possibly Concealing Earthquake Casualties. Hundreds of earthquake victims who were hospitalized in Tachilek on Saturday had disappeared by Sunday, in what sources say was a Burmese government effort to downplay damage from the magnitude 7.0 tremor. On Saturday, reporters visited the Tachilek Hospital and saw that it was overwhelmed by hundreds of earthquake victims, many of them forced to stay out in the open air. Hospital staff estimated at the time that about 700 patients were being treated. Reporters returned to the hospital on Sunday, but saw no patients outside of the hospital building and only normal patients inside in numbers that totalled much fewer than the day before. When asked where the other patients went, hospital staff and patients said they were “sent away” by the local authorities.

Local residents said that earthquake victims were moved away from the hospital after journalists visited and sent out reports, photos and video footage of the earthquake damage and casualties.

Local sources said at least 200 people in the hardest-hit villages in Shan State, including the town of Tarlay, lost their life. About 30 people died in Mong Linn alone, said local residents, and drinking water, medicine, clothes and blankets were urgently needed. Local authorities in Tachilek are accepting aid and supplies donated by individualsi, but won’t allow foreigners to visit hard-hit areas such as Tarlay and Mong Linn. Reporters spoke with many people in Tarlay and Mong Linn who remained in fear, were still sleeping on the ground in temporary shelters despite rainfall and thus far were unwilling to rebuild their houses. “We could not sleep well inside the building because we have to flee every time when we feel the ground shake,” said a health official in Mong Linn. Some residents said they intended to relocate as a result of the earthquake.

Meanwhile, hundreds of earthquake victims living in isolated Shan State villages such as Chakuni that are within areas controlled by ethnic armed groups have not yet received much needed drinking water, food, clothing, medicine or aid from government and nongovernmental organizations. Some Tarlay residents speculated that because Chakuni village is close to ethnic armed groups, the government is afraid of traveling to the village and areas nearby to provide aid and supplies to the earthquake victims. Chakuni residents said that all houses in the village were damaged and 22 people died while praying in a village church, while everyone else inside the church was seriously injured.

CANADA – 3.5-magnitude quake near Ontario nuclear facility. No damage was reported after a minor tremor Tuesday near the Atomic Energy Canada Ltd. nuclear laboratories in Chalk River, Ontario. The 3.5-magnitude quake happened about 70 km northeast of Chalk River, around 12:04 p.m. Tuesday. Chalk River is about 200 km northwest of Ottawa. The Chalk River nuclear reactor is run by AECL, which produces medical isotopes at the site.

“Western Quebec gets anywhere from 100 to 150 earthquakes about this size each year. This was one of the larger events this year, but we expect several of its size. Because this is a very isolated area, with little of the population in its vicinity, we haven’t received any reports of any damage or injury or calls of feeling the earthquake.” The Chalk River reactor was shut down in May 2009 when a heavy water leak was discovered. Before that, the reactor produced one-third of the world’s supply of medical isotopes. “We have assembled a team of specialists to study and assess our current situation. We are focusing on the lessons learned from Japan, that’s for sure.”

Swiss Re Expects Quakes To Become Deadlier, Costlier – Earthquakes are becoming deadlier and costlier even if no long-term trend of increasing global earthquake activity has emerged, Swiss Re said Tuesday. “Population growth, the higher number of people living in urban areas as well as rising wealth and rapidly increasing exposures,” is behind the increase. Many of these rapidly growing areas are located in seismically active areas. In 2010, earthquakes accounted for almost a third of the losses, with the February earthquake in Chile and the September quake in New Zealand the two costliest events last year. Losses caused by earthquakes will also be above average this year.

U.S. Lulled on Need for Earthquake Resilience - The United States, lulled by a century of relatively modest earthquakes in populous places, is poorly prepared for the kind of jolt that devastated northern Japan and is inevitable in several parts of this country.

The California Emergency Management Agency cited a study with a simple conclusion: For each dollar spent on mitigation activities, an average of $4 in post-disaster costs is saved. Evidence from Oregon, one of the states most vulnerable to great earthquakes, points out the challenge of moving from such logic, on paper, to investments in vulnerable schools or coastal communities in the inundation zone for the tsunami that will accompany the next great thrust of the Cascadia fault off the Northwest Coast. The report identifies an 18-task road map for implementing the strategic plan adopted by the National Earthquake Hazards Reduction Program, which would make the nation earthquake resilient. The road map tasks are required to develop the nation’s capacity to maintain important community functions and recover quickly following damaging earthquakes. The commitee estimated that the cost for its earthquake-resilience road map would be $306 million annually over the first five years.

RADIATION-

Nuclear workers in Japan evacuated as radiation soars - EXTREMELY high levels of radiation have been detected in water leaking from reactor two of the stricken Fukushima nuclear plant, forcing the evacuation of workers. The level of radiation found in the leaked water was 10 MILLION TIMES HIGHER THAN IT SHOULD BE for water inside the reactor, indicating damage to the fuel rods. “We detected 1000 millisieverts per hour of radiation in a puddle of water at the reactor number two. This figure is 10 million times higher than water usually kept in a reactor. We are examining the cause of this, but no work is being done there because of the high level of radiation. High levels of caesium and other substances are being detected, which usually should not be found in reactor water. There is a high possibility that fuel rods are being damaged.”

The head of the world’s nuclear watchdog agency has warned that Japan is “still far from the end of the accident” that struck its Fukushima nuclear complex.

Japanese authorities are still unsure about whether the reactor cores and spent fuel are covered with the water needed to cool them. The director general of the International Atomic Energy Agency said that he saw a few “positive signs” with the restoration of some external electric power to the plant. But he added that “more efforts should be done to put an end to the accident”.

The nuclear emergency COULD GO ON FOR WEEKS, IF NOT MONTHS, given the enormous damage to the plant, he warned. He said his biggest concern was the spent fuel rods sitting in open cooling pools atop the reactor buildings. He said he was still uncertain that the efforts to spray seawater into the pools to keep the rods from bursting into flames had been successful.

Two weeks after the 9.0-magnitude March 11 quake and subsequent tsunami seriously damaged the ageing nuclear plant in northeastern Japan, rescue work is still under way to avoid a major nuclear disaster. Radiation levels have surged in the seawater in the area and there are concerns that fuel rod vessels or their valves and pipes are leaking. More than 27,000 people are dead or missing after the quake and tsunami.

Levels of radioactive iodine in the sea near the plant have risen to 1,850 times the usual level. The radiation found in the sea will no longer be a risk after eight days because of iodine’s half-life, officials say.

Meanwhile, the Japanese government said that airbone radiation around the plant was decreasing. The UN nuclear watchdog, the International Atomic Energy Agency has now sent extra teams to the Japanese nuclear plant. Tepco has been criticised for a lack of transparency and failing to provide information more promptly. The nation’s nuclear agency said the operator of the Fukushima plant had made a number of mistakes, including worker clothing. This week three workers were exposed to radiation levels 10,000 times higher than normal, suffering burns. Two injured workers were wearing boots that only came up to their ankles and afforded little protection. “Regardless of whether there was an awareness of high radioactivity in the stagnant water, there were problems in the way work was conducted.” Tepco also knew of high air radiation at one reactor several days before the incident at the Fukushima Daiichi plant.

Emergency workers are continuing to cool the reactors in an effort to prevent a meltdown. They have now switched to using more favoured fresh water as a coolant, rather than sea water. There had been fears the salt in sea water could further corrode machinery. The fresh water is being pumped in so that contaminated radioactive water can be extracted. The US 7th Fleet is sending barges loaded with 500,000 gallons of fresh water. The team of more than 700 engineers has found radioactive water in three of the six reactors. Four of the reactors are still considered volatile. “We seem to be keeping the situation from turning worse. But WE STILL CANNOT BE OPTIMISTIC.”

Japan radiation killing sea life - While the U.S. Department of Energy said in public statements that there are “no significant quantities of radiological material” deposited on West coast beaches, there’s growing fears in West Coast fishing communities that Japan’s radiation will spread from its coast to here. Locals have been treated to a clear blue horizon after evenings of disturbing flaming-orange and red sunsets that locals say are “not so much beautiful,” but “sort of scary because of what’s happening with the radiation in Japan.”

The Japanese public television featured new reports Saturday morning that Tokyo’s 13 million residents are under recent measurements of “ambient radiation of 0.22 microsieverts per hours. The Japanese Health Ministry stated that this is “six times normal for Tokyo.” The World Nuclear Association said it cannot predict where the radiation from Japan will eventually wind up because precise radiation detection both in and over the Pacific is “not possible at this time” due to wind and ocean currents that can change.

Japanese media is reporting that the latest radiation scare in its waters have “destroyed aqua farms for abalone, sea urchins, oysters, scallops and seaweed. In turn, officials say this loss accounts for “more than 80 percent of the revenue of the region’s fisheries.” New radiation tests on Saturday showed “iodine 131 levels in seawater 30 km (19 miles) from the coastal nuclear complex had spiked 1,250 times higher than normal, but it was not considered a threat to marine life or food safety.” News that Japan’s radiation crisis has now spread to the Pacific has heighten international concern over Japanese seafood exports, and fish exporters elsewhere are equally worried that the fear of radiation spreading worldwide may tarnish the reputation of the local fish that buyers may view as tainted by radioactive particles.

Oregon authorities have issued new strong warning to keep humans and pets away from all dead sea life found on any Oregon coast beach, “as they could become infected by a disease that’s hitting the population in this area.” While radiation levels are viewed as safe right now along Oregon and other West coast beaches, there have been new warnings about a disease called “leptospirosis” that more recently infected California sea lions by the hundreds. Officials said the disease can spread to humans and dogs who come in contact with an infected sea lion or other dead sea life after the recent quake in Japan triggered massive amounts of questionable debris along West coast beaches. Tthose who walk their dogs along coastal beaches have been warned about dogs reported to be ill with unknown causes. A schnauzer puppy named “buggers,” is now seriously ill, and several other Newport dogs who frequent the local beach are also said to be sick and acting crazy.

U.S. Environment Protection Agency says radiation monitors were offline - Although no dangerous levels of radiation have reached American shores from the troubled Japanese nuclear reactors, some lawmakers are asking if the Nation’s Radiation Monitoring System can safeguard the U.S. against future disasters. Federal officials use the monitors’ readings to confirm the impact of nuclear incidents. Then, they alert local governments and the public. But in California, the Environmental Protection Agency says 4 of its 11 stationary monitors were offline for repairs or maintenance last week. Reports say out of 124 monitors nationwide, about 20 monitors were out of service earlier this week.

Japan activist warns another ‘nuclear quake’ looms – The nuclear safety crisis entering its third week in Japan was not exactly the disaster that long-term activist and author Takashi Hirose foresaw in his book last summer, “Nuclear Reactor Time Bomb”. But except for the location – he had predicted an imminent megaquake and nuclear accident at the Hamaoka plant 200 km southwest of Tokyo – the scenario depicted in his book has proved eerily prescient.

As Hirose watches what he believes is a bungled response by the government and Tokyo Electric Power Company , his fears are as strong as ever that A REPEAT IS SET TO HIT ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE JAPANESE CAPITAL. “I think it will definitely occur soon.” Research on earthquake cycles suggests that a massive quake may be imminent in the Tokai region near the Hamaoka nuclear plant. “I’ve looked at the entire country, and THERE’S NOT A SINGLE REACTOR THAT’S SAFE.”

Japan, at the crossroads of four tectonic plates, is the site of one-fifth of the world’s earthquakes of magnitude 6 or more. The possibility of an imminent magnitude 8-plus earthquake in the Tokai region near the Hamaoka plant was brought to the public’s attention by a geologist in the 1970s and a government report has estimated there is an 87 percent chance of such an earthquake within the next 30 years. “The Pacific plate is moving, and we shouldn’t be expecting that the other plates are just sitting quietly.”

Japan nuclear crisis: Radiation spike report ‘mistaken’ - The operators of a stricken Japanese nuclear plant have apologised for a “mistake” in reporting a radiation spike 10 million times above normal. Tokyo Electric Power Company said it got the readings wrong. Because the level was so high the worker taking the reading had to evacuate before confirming it with a second reading. Despite the mistake, the radiation spike at reactor 2 was still very high and enough to evacuate workers. “The number is not credible. We are very sorry.” The level of radiation in puddles near reactor 2 was confirmed at 1,000 millisieverts an hour. “It is an extremely high figure.” [ 100,000 times the radioactivity of normal background levels - THE HIGHEST RADIATION READINGS YET.] The radiation levels are so high, that emergency workers near the contaminated water would have received four times their maximum annual dose of radiation in just one hour. A dose of 4,000 to 5,000 millisieverts absorbed fairly rapidly will eventually kill about half of those exposed.

The erroneous report has created more confusion around a crisis that is already causing widespread unease in the country. On Sunday, anti-nuclear protesters held a large rally in Tokyo, calling for change in Japan’s nuclear industry. Meanwhile, efforts are continuing to locate the exact source of the radioactive water leak, amid concerns that the water is leaking directly from the reactor itself. The government in Tokyo has said that airborne radiation around the plant is decreasing, so there is no need to extend the evacuation zone.

Officials acknowledged there was radioactive water in all four of the Fukushima Dai-ichi complex’s most troubled reactors, and airborne radiation in Unit 2 measured 1000 millisieverts per hour – four times the limit deemed safe by the government. Officials say they still did not know where the radioactive water was coming from, although a government spokesman has said some was “almost certainly” seeping from a cracked reactor core in one of the units. “We have somewhat prevented the situation from turning worse. But the prospects are not improving in a straight line and we’ve expected twists and turns. The contaminated water is one of them and we’ll continue to repair the damage.” The discovery over the last three days of radioactive water has been a major setback in the mission to get the plant’s crucial cooling systems operating more than two weeks after the massive earthquake and tsunami. Each unit could have hundreds of tonnes of radioactive water.

Unlike in newer reactor designs, the older boiling-water reactors at Daiichi are pierced by dozens of holes in the bottoms of their reactor vessels. Each hole allows one control rod — made of a neutron-absorbing material that quickly stops nuclear fission inside the reactor — to slide into the reactor from below, as happened when the earthquake shook the plant March 11. During normal operations, a graphite stopper covers each hole, sealing in highly radioactive primary cooling water. But at temperatures above 350 degrees Fahrenheit, the graphite stoppers begin to melt.

“Since it is likely that rubble from the broken fuel rods is collecting at the bottom of the reactor, the seals are being damaged by high temperature or high radiation.” As the graphite seals fail, water in the reactor will leak into a network of pipes in the containment buildings surrounding each reactor — the very buildings that have been heavily damaged by explosions. This piping is probably compromised, leaving highly radioactive water to seep from the reactor vessels into broken pipes — and from there into the turbine buildings and beyond. To stabilize the facility, workers are trying to repair the elaborate cooling system, necessary to keep the reactor cores and spent fuel pools from overheating. For now, they are conducting this work in dark, steamy conditions. Nuclear safety experts say they must shift out of the most dangerous areas every 30 minutes to an hour, to prevent radiation overexposure.

One subcontracted worker who laid cables for new electrical lines March 19 described chaotic conditions and lax supervision that made him nervous. Neither he nor any of the workers around him was given a dosimeter, a device used to measure one’s exposure to radiation. He was surprised that workers were not given special shoes; rather, they were told to put plastic bags over their street shoes. [Saw in a photo that some are wearing flip-flops! With plastic bags over them and no socks.] When he was trying on the gas mask for the first time, he said, the supervisor told him and other subcontractors, “Listen carefully, I’m only going to say this one time,” while explaining how to use it.

A sample of Massachusetts rainwater has registered very low concentrations of radiation, most likely from the Japanese nuclear power plant. The radioactive isotope iodine-131 found in the sample – one of more than 100 that have been taken around the country – has a short life of only eight days. The drinking water supply in the state was unaffected and officials do not expect any health concerns. Nevada, California, Hawaii, Colorado and Washington state have also reported tiny amounts of radiation from the Japan accident. Officials have said those levels presented no health risks. Scientists say they weren’t surprised that radioactive isotopes from Japan were detected in the Western states. “They get caught up in the right wind pattern and they’ll move across the ocean.”

Japan’s Prime Minister says his government is in a “STATE OF MAXIMUM ALERT” over the crisis at the stricken Fukushima nuclear plant. He told a Lower House budget committee meeting that the situation “continues to be unpredictable” and that the government “will tackle the problem while in a state of maximum alert”.

Radiation leak found outside Japan nuclear reactor - Highly radioactive water has been found for the first time outside one of the reactor buildings at Japan’s quake-hit Fukushima nuclear plant. The leak in a tunnel linked to the No 2 reactor has raised fears of radioactive liquid seeping into the environment. Plutonium has also been found in soil at the plant, but not at levels that threaten human health.

Up until now, pools of water with extremely high levels of radiation have only been detected within the reactor buildings themselves. The water was found in an underground maintenance tunnel, with one end located about 55m (180ft) from the shore. Radiation levels were measured at 1,000 millisieverts an hour, a dose that can cause temporary radiation sickness. This is the same as the levels found on Sunday. However, Tepco said there was no evidence that the contaminated water had reached the sea. Tepco later said that plutonium had also been detected in soil at five locations at the plant but not at levels that represented a risk to human health. It said the results came from samples taken a week ago and would not stop work at the plant. Plutonium was used in the fuel mix for only one of the six reactors, number three.

As well as shortages of food, water and fuel, survivors are also having to endure frequent aftershocks. Japan lifted a tsunami warning earlier on Monday that was issued after a 6.5-magnitude quake struck off the northern coast. The quake is not reported to have caused any injuries or damage. In Miyagi prefecture – one of the worst-hit areas – the authorities estimate it will be three years before all of the rubble and debris has been cleared.

Records Show 56 Safety Violations at U.S. Nuclear Power Plants in Past 4 Years – Among the litany of violations at U.S. nuclear power plants are missing or mishandled nuclear material, inadequate emergency plans, faulty backup power generators, corroded cooling pipes and even marijuana use inside a nuclear plant. And perhaps most troubling of all, critics say, the commission has failed to correct the violations in a timely fashion.

“The Nuclear Regulatory Commission has very good safety regulations but they have very bad enforcement of those regulations.” There are 104 U.S. nuclear power plants. Scientists found 14 “near misses” at nuclear plants in 2010. And there were 56 serious violations at nuclear power plants from 2007 to 2011.

At the Dresden Nuclear Power Plant in Illinois, for instance, which is located within 50 miles of the 7 million people who live in and around Chicago, nuclear material went missing in 2007. The Nuclear Regulatory Commission fined the operator – Exelon Corp. – after discovering the facility had failed to “keep complete records showing the inventory [and] disposal of all special nuclear material in its possession.” As a result, two fuel pellets and equipment with nuclear material could not be accounted for. Two years later, federal regulators cited Dresden for allowing unlicensed operators to work with radioactive control rods. The workers allowed three control rods to be moved out of the core. When alarms went off, workers initially ignored them. At the Indian Point nuclear plant just outside New York City, the NRC found that an earthquake safety device has been leaking for 18 years. In the event of an earthquake, the faulty safety device would not help prevent water from leaking out of the reactor. A lack of water to cool the fuel rods has been the most critical problem at the Fukushima plant in Japan after the recent earthquake and tsunami. “The NRC has known it’s been leaking since 1993, “but they’ve done nothing to fix it.”

In June 2009, at the Southern Nuclear Operating Co. Inc. in Birmingham, Alabama, the emergency diesel generator – which would be used in the event of a disaster – was deemed inoperable, after years of neglect. “Cracks in the glands of the emergency diesel generator couplings had been observed since 1988, but the licensee did not recognize the cracking was an indication of coupling deterioratio.”. On April 19, 2010, the NRC cited the Tennessee Valley Authority Browns Ferry nuclear plant near Decatur for failing to provide “fire protection features capable of limiting fire damage.”

NRC safety records show that inadequate emergency planning was a recurring problem in the industry from 2007 to 2011. Violations included unapproved emergency plans and plan changes, inadequate fire planning and precautions, falsified “fire watch” certification sheets,” inadequate flooding precautions, an insufficient tone alert radio system to notify the populace in a potential emergency and faulty assessment of containment barrier thresholds. Corroded water pipes and cooling problems were also recurring issues.

Nuclear fears spark rush for detectors - A scare over irradiated food from Japan has sparked a global rush to buy radiation detectors, with most US dealers reporting they have no more stock to sell.

VOLCANOES -

HAWAII – Lava returns to Pu’u ‘O’o crater. Lava is once again visible in the Pu’u ‘O’o crater. Scientists said the lava’s return follows a 17-day pause in the eruption’s activity on Kilauea Volcano’s east rift zone.

Lava was spotted shortly after 10 a.m. Saturday. HVO Webcam images showed lava slowly filling the deepest parts of the crater. An abrupt deflation occurred about the same time that lava appeared in the crater, but the deflation then switched to inflation by 11 a.m. The eruption of lava was accompanied by a brief seismic tremor burst. “Lava is currently confined to the Pu’u ‘O’o crater and, so far, poses no threat to structures within Hawai`i Volcanoes National Park or outside Park boundaries.” The crater floor collapsed March 5. A few hours later, a fissure opened southwest of Pu’u ‘O’o and began erupting fountains of lava. The lava erupted from what became known as the Kamoamoa fissure until March 9, when all activity on the east rift zone paused until Saturday.

NORTH AND SOUTH KOREA have started talks about a potential volcanic threat from the peninsula’s highest mountain, in a rare moment of co-operation after months of confrontation. The meeting at the South Korean border town of Munsan came amid heightened concern over natural disasters after the killer earthquake and ensuing tsunami devastated north-eastern Japan. Following the Japanese disaster, Pyongyang’s earthquake bureau had proposed joint research into possible activity at Mount Paekdu on the border between North Korea and China – a peak considered sacred by both sides. Since its last eruption in 1903, the mountain has been inactive. But experts say it may have an active core, citing topographical signs and satellite images. In the event of an eruption, a huge lake could overflow and deluge surrounding areas.

INDONESIA - Merapi’s Massive Mud Flows Destroy More Homes as Heavy Rains Continue. Vast torrents of volcanic mud washing down the slopes of Mount Merapi have destroyed or damaged more than 600 homes over the past few days. 106 homes have been destroyed by the mud flow, or lahar. Another 323 have suffered heavy damage, 105 moderate damage and 91 light damage. Another 11 houses are at risk. Salam, where 413 of the 625 damaged homes are located, has been the worst-effected subdistrict. The lahar has also destroyed 11 bridges, damaged four others and cut off three roads. It has left more than 3,400 people living in temporary shelters, five months after Merapi began its biggest eruption in a century. The lahar was being fed by vast quantities of volcanic ash washed by heavy rain into the Putih and Pabelan rivers, which dumped it downstream on the affected communities.

Authorities had been trying to ease the problem by dredging the rivers using heavy equipment, and by building levees to stop the rivers bursting their banks. However, many of the levees have proven too weak in the face of the lahar. The authorities had been using the mud dredged from the rivers to build up the levees. “What they should do is cart that mud away so that there’s no possibility of it washing back into the rivers when it rains.” New houses for people left homeless by Merapi’s devastating October eruptions had been completed this month. “At the moment, the new houses are being prioritized for the survivors of the eruptions. Victims of the lahar will get new shelters in the second phase of building [to begin in April].”

The lahar that hit Sleman this week flowed down the Opak and Gendol rivers, destroying homes in at least two villages. The torrents of mud will continue to pose a serious threat for at least the next four YEARS. Last year’s eruptions deposited an estimated 150 million cubic meters of ash and rock across Merapi’s slopes. It is estimated that more than two-thirds of that remains on the mountain.

The administration had been forced to extend the emergency period announced after the eruptions from the end of March to the end of April to deal with the lahar. They blamed the unseasonably heavy rains that are washing the volcanic ash into the Code River. The lahar there has damaged or destroyed around 1,000 homes this month alone. The local office of the Meteorology, Climatology and Geophysics Agency has predicted the rainy season will end in April.

INDONESIA - Alert Level Lowered for Karangetang As Lava Flows Begin to Slow Down. The government has lowered the alert level for North Sulawesi’s Mount Karangetang following a decrease in lava and pyroclastic flows produced by the erupting volcano.

Deep-sea volcanoes don’t just produce lava flows, they also explode! - Geology researchers’ discovery of high concentrations of CO2 at mid-ocean ridges confirms explosive nature of certain volcanic eruptions Between 75 and 80 per cent of all volcanic activity on Earth takes place at deep-sea, mid-ocean ridges. Most of these volcanoes produce effusive lava flows rather than explosive eruptions, both because the levels of magmatic gas (which fuel the explosions and are made up of a variety of components, including, most importantly CO2) tend to be low, and because the volcanoes are under a lot of pressure from the surrounding water.

Over about the last 10 years however, geologists have nevertheless speculated, based on the presence of volcanic ash in certain sites, that explosive eruptions can also occur in deep-sea volcanoes. But no one has been able to prove it until now. A researcher has now discovered very high concentrations of CO2 in droplets of magma trapped within crystals recovered from volcanic ash deposits on Axial Volcano on the Juan de Fuca Ridge, off the coast of Oregon. These entrapped droplets represent the state of the magma prior to eruption. As a result, they have been able to prove that explosive eruptions can indeed occur in deep-sea volcanoes. Their work also shows that the release of CO2 from the deeper mantle to the Earth’s atmosphere, at least in certain parts of mid-ocean ridges, is MUCH HIGHER THAN HAD PREVIOUSLY BEEN IMAGINED. Given that mid-ocean ridges constitute the largest volcanic system on Earth, this discovery has important implications for the global carbon cycle which have yet to be explored.

NEW ZEALAND - Auckland scientists are currently putting technology in place to monitor the way the earth moves in the city of Auckland, famous for its volcanoes. The Christchurch earthquakes are deadly reminders of the earth’s raw power but a different menace lurks below New Zealand’s biggest city, Auckland. The city is dotted with volcanoes and no-one knows when a new one could blow. “We hope that we would get some warning, but we could get a new volcano appearing anytime.” One of the first signs is smaller earthquakes, which could be pushing magma up to the surface.

About 400 metres down the south stand at Eden Park is a very important borehole – it is one of five boreholes that are listening to the earth move. “There’s one of these [boreholes] at 400 metres, and one of these at 26 metres, and it just measures the movements of the earth.” The data is then presented and studied as an interactive 3D model, as a joint project between the Institute of Earth and Science Engineering and Nextspace. “It also helps you to map out what’s unknown below the surface that might cause a problem – the Canterbury fault lines for instance, were sort of known that they existed but not exactly where they are.” Scientists now plan to drill two more holes at least a kilometre deep to keep an eye underground.”So that we can pick up more smaller earthquakes, find out where the fault structure is and potentially get an earlier warning of any volcanic activity.” Negotiations are now underway with the Auckland Council to cover the $2 million needed.

Concern over Mt. Baekdu eruption growing – A slew of the latest environmental changes revealed by North Korean officials during a meeting with their South Korean counterparts on Tuesday has put greater weight that the dormant volcano on Mt. Baekdu could erupt. Volcanologists from North Korea cited snowfall in Gaeseong in late March as an UNUSUAL environmental change that they said was UNPRECEDENTED in the relatively southern part of the communist state. A North Korean volcanologist said that following the quake in Japan, they observed underground water shaking and splashing up to 60 centimeters, with usually clean water from wells occasionally turning muddy. He said all of the ABNORMAL events seem to be related to the 9.0-magnitude earthquake that hit northeastern Japan on March 11.

Many South Korean scientists have cautiously raised speculation that an eruption could take place in four to five years. They have claimed “STRANGE SIGNS,” including minor trembling near Mt. Baekdu in June 2002, and the frequency has increased. A Chinese institute monitoring volcanic activity at Mt. Baekdu acknowledged minor quakes which are too weak to be felt by human beings occur nearly 100 times per day. Among other indicators foreshadowing a future eruption is the height of Mt. Baekdu, which has grown nearly 10 centimeters since 2002. Scientists said bloated magma, a precondition for an eruption, is gradually increasing the height of the mountain as well as raising the temperature on the surface.

Experts say the socio-economic impact on the North in the event of an eruption would be so immense that it could pose a great threat to the isolated regime. “The North Korean regime has no capability to handle such a major natural disaster at all. the eruption will have a negative impact on the hunger-stricken country’s crop production and even lead to the collapse of the regime.” According to a simulation analysis, a large-scale eruption at Mt. Baekdu would send millions of tons of volcanic ash into the air. This huge mass, the analysis showed, would BLOCK THE SUN ON THE KOREAN PENINSULA FOR ABOUT TWO MONTHS, resulting in the average temperature dropping by two degrees Celsius. “It will devastate agriculture, meat/poultry farming and other parts of the food supply chain in North Korea, which poses the greatest risk to its dictatorship.” South Korea’s weather agency has pushed to forge a partnership with its counterparts in Japan and China for more accurate weather forecasting including a natural disaster control system. Small-scale eruptions at Mt. Baekdu were recorded in 1413, 1597, 1668 and 1702 – the last activity was recorded in 1903.

Meanwhile, 13 dormant volcanoes in Japan are increasingly showing signs of eruption in the wake of the March 11 quake.

World’s deadliest volcano in Africa waiting to explode – Mount Nyiragongo, one of the world’s deadliest volcanos, is waiting to explode and turn Goma, a city of a million people in the Democratic Republic of Congo, into a modern day Pompeii. But scientists do not know when, since it is in the war-torn eastern edge of the Democratic Republic of Congo. The two-mile high cauldron of lava is also one of the least understood. At the base of Nyiragongo sprawls Goma with its numbers swelling by the day as villagers from the countryside seek refuge from rebel and government forces. Twice in recent years Nyiragongo’s eruptions have hit the city, destroying homes and sending residents fleeing. But now, seismologists believe, the risk is not just near the city, but directly beneath it. For the past 20 years the region has suffered nearly constant warfare.

“Goma is the most dangerous city in the world.” In 2002, 350,000 fled after the volcano shot more than 15 million cubic yards of lava into downtown Goma, destroying 14,000 homes and burying buildings to the top of the first floor. In 1977, lava raced down the mountain, killing several hundred people, even though the flow had hardened before it reached the main part of the city. But both eruptions were mere grumbles compared with the devastation seismologists believe it is ready to unleash.

TSUNAMI / FREAK WAVES / ABNORMAL TIDES / RISING SEA LEVELS -

Tsunami threat could catch U.S. Northwest off guard - the West Coast is unprepared for an earthquake and tsunami on the scale of what happened in Japan. Scientists say it’s inevitable that an offshore seismic menace called the Cascadia Subduction Zone will one day unleash a megaquake. The last time it happened was 300 years ago when a magnitude-9 shaker spawned enormous ocean waves that slammed into the West Coast and damaged Japanese fishing villages.

Mindful of the risks of waves as high as 60 feet, communities in the Pacific Northwest have worked on their defenses, installing sirens to warn of dangerous waves, posting hazard signs to mark inundation zones, designating evacuation routes and holding evacuation drills. Scientists in the Pacific Northwest hadn’t understood the geology and the threat it poses until recent decades when they discovered evidence of big quakes near the coast over the last 10,000 years — about 20 that were the size of the March 11 quake in Japan.

By contrast, the Japanese have long paid close attention to quakes and tsunamis. Their written records from 1700 allowed North American scientists a few years ago to fix the timing of the last Pacific Northwest megaquake, right down to the hour it occurred. So the death and damage caused by this month’s earthquake and tsunami in Japan were worrisome on the other side of the Pacific. “We’re not nearly as well prepared as the Japanese, and clearly they were overwhelmed. It is a problem.”

Elevated refuges are among the Japan-style responses to the tsunami threat that experts say helped to mitigate the destruction and death. And these are just pieces in a giant puzzle for the Northwest in dealing with the aftermath of a disaster that could bring Katrina-style devastation to a region of 13 million people west of the Cascade Range. In Cannon Beach, the former mayor has proposed replacing the current City Hall, seismically unsound, with a two-story building on stilts to provide refuge to as many as 1,500 people. The second floor would house city offices. Atop that would be a terrace. The idea is still conceptual, awaiting vetting by structural and geophysical engineers. That could add to the tentative $4 million price tag. There’s nothing like it from Northern California to British Columbia and, so far, no money for anything like it.

There are no current plans in California to build special tsunami-resistant structures, but some communities are looking at ways to herd residents to existing buildings perched on higher ground in the event of dangerous waves. In Washington state, emergency managers are working with coastal communities to develop local plans for elevated evacuation structures that could do double duty, such as steel-reinforced earthen berms 20 feet high that could support bleachers at a stadium.

“Right now, there’s no funding for anything like this, through state and federal funding.” Many places on the Pacific Northwest coast don’t have high ground close to the beach, such as the flats of southwest Washington’s Long Beach peninsula.

The message that has to be driven home for coastal residents is there are just a few keys to surviving a tsunami, including the importance of getting to higher ground and staying there, even if your family is scattered. It’s also important to find a way to hoof it to higher ground — rather than trying to drive and dealing with gridlock — while also designating someone on solid ground as the family contact point. Governments can make it easier for people to survive tsunamis by creating shelters on high ground, and making sure paths uphill are clear of the invasive blackberry brambles that plague the coast.

SNEAKER WAVES - the mighty Pacific Ocean claims, on average, about 100 people each year along West coast beaches that stretch from southern California up to the very top of Washington State. Officials say many die while “in the midst of playing on the beach or standing or hiking along coastal vantage points.”

In the coastal town of Yachats, “the danger we face is caused by rip currents that form something we call ‘sneaker waves,’ that move around the coastal cliffs and then collapse on bystanders in much the same way as what killed these teens on Saturday [February 5].” According to police officials, the two Eugene high school seniors died instantly after the 10-foot wave lifted them off the slippery rocks and took them out to sea. More than 60 deaths have occurred along this same stretch of coast over the past 10 years.

From the Oregon UFO “watchers” group that regularly patrols the rugged coastal area around Yachats to the tens of thousands of tourists who visit the region for whale watching, there’s one general rule: Be aware that these areas can be dangerous because of waves surges, slippery rocks and sharp surfaces. While it’s no surprise for locals about this rise in the number of deaths on Oregon coast beaches due to sudden wave movements by the Pacific Ocean, “it does catch our tourists unaware. You get folks coming to the beach thinking it’s laid back and easy. They let their guard down, not thinking about the ocean or being surprised by waves and rolling logs.” With more people visiting who are not used to the “moods” of the Pacific, they get caught.

Japanese Rules for Nuclear Plants Relied on Old Science - In the country that gave the world the word tsunami, the Japanese nuclear establishment largely disregarded the potentially destructive force of the walls of water. The word did not even appear in government guidelines until 2006, decades after plants — including the Fukushima Daiichi facility that firefighters are still struggling to get under control — began dotting the Japanese coastline.

The lack of attention may help explain how, on an island nation surrounded by clashing tectonic plates that commonly produce tsunamis, the protections were so tragically minuscule compared with the nearly 46-foot tsunami that overwhelmed the Fukushima plant on March 11. Offshore breakwaters, designed to guard against typhoons but not tsunamis, succumbed quickly as a first line of defense. The wave grew three times as tall as the bluff on which the plant had been built.

Japanese government and utility officials have repeatedly said that engineers could never have anticipated the magnitude 9.0 earthquake — by far the largest in Japanese history — that caused the sea bottom to shudder and generated the huge tsunami. Even so, seismologists and tsunami experts say that according to readily available data, an earthquake with a magnitude as low as 7.5 – almost garden variety around the Pacific Rim – could have created a tsunami large enough to top the bluff at Fukushima.

After an advisory group issued nonbinding recommendations in 2002, Tokyo Electric Power Company, the plant owner and Japan’s biggest utility, raised its maximum projected tsunami at Fukushima Daiichi to between 17.7 and 18.7 feet — considerably higher than the 13-foot-high bluff. Yet the company appeared to respond only by raising the level of an electric pump near the coast by 8 inches, presumably to protect it from high water. “We can only work on precedent, and there was no precedent. When I headed the plant, the thought of a tsunami never crossed my mind.”

The intensity with which the earthquake shook the ground at Fukushima also exceeded the criteria used in the plant’s design, though by a less significant factor than the tsunami. Based on what is known now, the tsunami set off the nuclear crisis by flooding the backup generators needed to power the reactor cooling system.

For some experts, the underestimate of the tsunami threat at Fukushima is frustratingly reminiscent of the earthquake — this time with no tsunami — in July 2007 that struck Kashiwazaki, a Tokyo Electric nuclear plant on Japan’s western coast. The ground at Kashiwazaki shook as much as two and a half times the maximum intensity envisioned in the plant’s design, prompting upgrades at the plant. “They had years to prepare at that point, after Kashiwazaki, and I am seeing the same thing at Fukushima.” When Fukushima was designed, seismology and its intersection with the structural engineering of nuclear power plants was in its infancy. Engineers employed a lot of guesswork, adopting a standard that structures inside nuclear plants should have three times the quake resistance of general buildings. “There was no basis in deciding on three times.” Seawalls were erected higher than the highest tsunamis on record. At Fukushima Daiichi, officials at Tokyo Electric used a contemporary tsunami — a 10.5-foot-high wave caused by a 9.5-magnitude earthquake in Chile in 1960 — as a reference point. The 13-foot-high cliff on which the plant was built would serve as a natural seawall. Eighteen-foot-high offshore breakwaters were built as part of the company’s anti-tsunami strategy. But regulators said the breakwaters — mainly intended to shelter boats — offered some resistance against typhoons, but not tsunamis.

Over the decades, preparedness against tsunamis never became a priority for Japan’s power companies or nuclear regulators. Even though tsunami simulations offered new ways to assess the risks of tsunamis, plant operators made few changes at their aging facilities, and nuclear regulators did not press them. Although the United States Nuclear Regulatory Commission has come under severe criticism for not taking the adoption of new techniques far enough, the agency did use many of them in new, plant-by-plant reviews. For whatever reasons — whether cultural, historical or simply financial — Japanese engineers working on nuclear plants continued to predict what they believed were maximum earthquakes based on records. Those methods, however, did not take into account serious uncertainties like faults that had not been discovered or earthquakes that were gigantic but rare.

The science of tsunamis advanced through the years, with far better measurements of their size, vastly expanded statistics as more occurred, and computer calculations that help predict what kinds of tsunamis are produced by earthquakes of various sizes. Earthquakes of a magnitude down to about 7.5 can create tsunamis large enough to go over the 13-foot bluff protecting the Fukushima plant. Japan’s underestimation of the tsunami risk was called a “cascade of stupid errors that led to the disaster” and that relevant data was virtually impossible to overlook by anyone in the field.

Perhaps the saddest observation by scientists outside Japan is that, even through the narrow lens of recorded tsunamis, the potential for easily overtopping the anti-tsunami safeguards at Fukushima should have been recognized. In 1993 a magnitude 7.8 quake produced tsunamis with heights greater than 30 feet off Japan’s western coast, spreading wide devastation. Two decades after Fukushima Daiichi came online, researchers poring through old records estimated that a quake known as Jogan had actually produced a tsunami that reached nearly one mile inland in an area just north of the plant. That tsunami struck in 869.

Tsunami returns island life to a bygone age - Six tsunamis swept onto Oshima Island off Japan’s devastated northeast coast after the powerful offshore earthquake on March 11. The disaster severed water supplies and electricity from the mainland, and it may be months before they are restored. Survivors from this community of 3,500 are banding together and resurrecting bygone practices to get by. “I go to the river two or three times a day to get water.” Televisions, blow dryers, space heaters lay jumbled amid the splintered wreckage, the appliances all quiet now without power.

An old wood-burning stove, dragged into a small clearing with a view of the ocean below, has become the meeting place for this part of the island, known as Isokusa. Residents, many now living on the upper floors of a nearby hotel, sit on logs and feed scraps of their ruined homes into the stove to stay warm. “The thing I miss most is electricity.” Residents subsisted for a couple of weeks on bread and canned food, but now rice and other staples have begun to arrive by small boat.

Two yellow tractors tried to pull a two-story home out of the sea with thick ropes threaded through holes in the roof. “The third tsunami carried my house away.” Many families relied on the ocean for their income, raising seaweed, scallops and oysters. This year’s crop has been ruined, along with most of the boats and equipment. The streets are littered with smashed oysters, and nets and buoys hang from trees along the shore. “My house and my boat were insured. But you can’t insure boiling pots and other equipment.” The timing of the disaster was especially painful, as it came a week before they were to harvest this year’s crop of “wakame,” a seaweed widely used in Japanese salads and soups. One man, whose family has lived on the island for more than 200 years, estimates he has lost 100 million yen ($1.2 million) in product and supplies. Most fishermen have some gear left and, by mixing and matching, they may be able to assemble enough to raise a small crop jointly. “We’re going to combine what we have and work together for a year or two. It’s impossible to do it alone.”

MYSTERY BOOMS / SKYQUAKES -

OREGON – 3/28/11 – Rumble and Noise Alarms Central Oregon Coast Residents Monday. A small rumbling was felt on the central Oregon coast Monday, along with loud booming noise, lighting up Twitter and Facebook accounts all around the state as people in the region asked each other: Did you feel it? The question now is: was it a quake, a sonic boom or thunder?

Earlier in the day, the USGS office in Seattle said a magnitude 2 earthquake did indeed shake the region at 11:02 a.m. The tiny tremor was 10.5 miles deep, and happened between Tillamook and Newport, somewhere right along the shoreline. Instruments seem to put it about four kilometers outside of Hebo. The two events seem to be unconnected, however. Geographically it matched up, but people in Lincoln City said what they heard and felt occurred around 1 p.m., while the quake was around 11 a.m. Further updates during the day on Monday from instruments on the central coast indicate there was no quake around 1 p.m. The noise and rumble does fit the profile of military exercises off the Oregon coast, which sometimes create sonic booms. A resident did snap a photograph of what appeared to be a thunderhead cloud near Lincoln City just before the noise. The mystery boom and rumble could have been thunder as well. Many people on the central coast have been talking about feeling it via social networks, especially in the Lincoln City and Otis areas. The USGS wants to hear from those who felt it so they can learn more from the event.

TROPICAL STORMS -

Heavy rain expected in North Island, New Zealand as Bune weakens – There is a severe weather warning for the central North Island. There’s a overnight heavy rain warning for the Bay of Plenty and Taupo, which will continue onto Sunday. Another front is also expected to move up the South Island today, bringing heavy rain to West Coast and Alps, Southland and Otago. The heaviest falls are expected in the ranges of Westland.

Meanwhile, Cyclone Bune has weakened slightly, classing as a strong Category Two cyclone down from Category Three Saturday morning. The storm has been drifting very slowly in a south easterly direction. It is expected to track to the east of New Zealand midway through next week. There’s a chance of dangerous rips and surfs along the east coast during that time. At this stage, the cyclone is not expected to hit New Zealand directly, but people at east coast beaches should expect large rips. It was too early to make predictions about its effect on New Zealand because of the high degree of uncertainty about its track.

Over 3,700 Burmese Fishermen Still Missing, Presumed Dead - Of the 7,000 fishermen that were swept into the Andaman Sea during a tropical storm on March 14-16, a total of 3,374 have now been rescued. The remaining 3,700 are still missing. Nearly two weeks since 400 fishing vessels were overturned or destroyed in 70mph winds, little hope remains of anyone else surviving. “There are currently about 400 fishing vessels at sea trying to rescue survivors of the storm.”

The tropical storm occurred off the Irrawaddy delta coast close to areas such as Bogalay and Laputta which were severely hit by Cyclone Nargis in May 2008. “We already listed 7,000 people as missing at sea along with their vessels. But that figure does not include those people living in littoral areas. So the number of dead may be higher.” Naval sources have estimated that the majority of missing fishermen are from Irrawaddy Division and Mon State. On March 13 that 100 houses and 38 huts in Rangoon and 20 houses in Irrawaddy Division were destroyed by the torrential winds. Burma’s Department of Meteorology and Hydrology reported on March 14 that the region would experience heavy winds and rain with some thunder and lightning, but did not predict the tropical storm.

Tropical Cyclone Bune is making its way down to New Zealand and is expected to pass to the east of the country from Wednesday. The eye of the storm is expected to pass directly over Raoul Island in the Kermadec group tonight.

Tropical cyclone weakening but may still bring bad weather. Tropical cycloneBune which lashed a small community of scientists on Raoul Island last night is set to bring strong winds and rain to New Zealand.

AUSTRALIA - A tropcial low hovering off the Northern Territory coast north of Darwin could develop into a cyclone as early as tomorrow. The weather bureau last night said there was up to a 50 per cent chance the low would develop into a cyclone.

Cyclone watch has been declared on the Tiwi Islands with a “broad” tropical low set to bring more monsoonal conditions to the mainland. The low, developing north of Croker Island 80km from Darwin, is moving slowly but is expected to gain momentum as it moves south-west over the Timor Sea tomorrow. The cyclone is expected to develop on Friday with the entire Top End of Australia to cop the effects. Tiwi residents have been warned to clear yards and balconies and commence home shelter and emergency kit preparations.

AUSTRALIA – The cyclone watch for the Northern Territory has been cancelled. A tropical low pressure weather system of 1001ha is estimated to be 140km west northwest of Darwin and moving west at 10km/h. The system is expected to turn southwest and develop into a tropical cyclone as it nears the north Kimberley coast on Saturday morning. A small part of the tropical low split from the main system and passed over Darwin last night. “A small vortex came down near Darwin and that produced all the rain. The main low stayed near the Tiwis.”

The track of the tropical low was not similar to that of Cyclone Tracy. “Tracy actually came and went past the islands, the whole system came into Darwin.” March was a below-average month for rainfall, with 231mm in the gauge at Darwin Airport, where a normal expectation would be around 319mm. So far this Wet, Darwin Airport has clocked 2725mm of rain, with a month to go before it can beat the record of 3048.6mm at Pirlangimpi on Melville Island from the 1999-2000 wet season.

Things are looking better for the weekend, with more sunshine opening up. ‘Rain will be easing off, but still a few showers, and potential storm, but a lot less that what we’ve seen. The active monsoon will hang around at least the weekend or early next week, but it depends what happens with this cyclone, it might take some of the weather with it.”

The tropical low is expected to form into a cyclone tomorrow morning off the Kimberly coast There is a cyclone warning for areas between the NT border and Mitchell Plateau, and the coast between Mitchell Plateau and Cockatoo Island is on cyclone watch. Tides on Saturday will be higher than normal between Wyndham and Kalumburu, and heavy rain is expected in the Kimberlys.

AUSTRALIA – Power back on soon for cyclone victims. Ergon Energy expects north Queensland’s cyclone-damaged power network will be completely repaired within the next three weeks. Sections of the network are still damaged from Cyclone Yasi which crossed

the coast in February. More than 3,500 defaults were recorded after the cyclone and a big push is underway to fix the last of the problems. At the moment there are certainly a number of customers, certainly in the Tully area, some in the Ingham area, that don’t have power…We expect it will be finished probably within the next three weeks.”

AccuWeather’s 2011 hurricane forecast is out - AccuWeather.com expects “an active season with more impact on the U.S. coastline than last year.” It predicts 15 named tropical storms, with eight reaching hurricane strength, and three becoming “major” (Cat. 3) storms. That’s more than average, but less than 2010’s third-busiest 19, 12 and 5. Since no hurricane made U.S. landfall in 2010, predicting a “higher potential” this year seems a safe bet. The season officially begins June 1 and lasts through November.

This year’s predictions are based on several factors. These include the El Nino/La Nina cycle in the Pacific. We’re currently in a waning La Nina, and it will be in a neutral phase by summer – not cycling into the warm-water El Nino conditions in the tropical eastern Pacific, which tend to produce stronger westerly winds in the Atlantic. “Stronger westerlies would prohibit major storms, or a lot of storms, so it is a critical factor.”

Saharan dust is another factor. When it blows west out over the Atlantic, it can inhibit storm formation. “Current projections … suggest there will be episodes of dust affecting development, but no more than normal.” They also factor in the Atlantic Multidecadal Oscillation. This is a long-term cycle of Atlantic surface water temperature and atmospheric factors. It has been in a positive, warm-water phase since 1994, and that has meant generally more active hurricane seasons than the historic average.

They believe the early part of the season will see the highest risk for the western Gulf of Mexico and the southern Caribbean. By the mid- and late-season months, the risk will shift to the eastern Gulf and Caribbean, as well as the Florida peninsula and the Atlantic coast from Florida to the Carolinas.

HEAVY RAINS / FLOODING / LANDSLIDES / UNUSUAL & OUT-OF-SEASON WEATHER -

THAILAND – Serious floods in the south of Thailand have killed three people and affected tens of thousands more, causing about $9.2 million of damage.

Emergency disaster zones have been declared in 34 districts across five provinces since heavy downpours began on Wednesday. “Since rains began on March 23, there have been floods, strong winds and landslide in several areas,” said the governor of Nakhon Si Thammarat province, which has been hardest hit. “There are about 30,000 families or 80,000 people affected by these floods.” Devastating flooding across Thailand late last year left more than 220 people dead, damaging the homes or livelihoods of an estimated 8.6 million people in 51 of the kingdom’s 76 provinces.

AUSTRALIA - A RARE plant that flowers underwater and HASN’T BEEN SEEN FOR 20 YEARS has been discovered after drought-breaking rain in Victoria. Eriocaulon Australasicum, otherwise known as Austral Pipewort, was spotted in February by at a wetland in the Wimmera region after disappearing in the mid-1990s. A second population of pipewort was later detected in the Southern Grampians and are now being monitored by staff from the environment department. The biology of the water-loving plant remains a mystery but it is thought to appear after prolonged immersion in warming swamp waters. “The plants can reach a maximum of nine centimetres and start to produce flower shoots under water.” Austral Pipewort was first discovered in 1853 but a second specimen was not collected until 1975.

AUSTRALIA – Evacuations after more landslips at Hideaway Bay as heavy rain continues in Queensland. Homes have been evacuated in a north Queensland coastal community after heavy rain caused more landslips overnight. Fourteen homes were evacuated in Hideaway Bay, southeast of Bowen, last night after more landslips hit the township following a big slide on Tuesday. Police declared an emergency situation and door-knocked homes.

There are no reports of injuries but because of the poor weather and dark, the level of damage to property can not be established until daylight. Police remain in the area.

There is no relief is in sight for flooded north Queensland, with TORRENTIAL RAIN EXPECTED TO CONTINUE FOR THE REST OF THE WEEK. The Bruce Highway remains cut and Proserpine airport and many local roads have closed as the weather bureau warns heavy falls will continue, with daily totals expected to 200mm. More than 400mm has flooded parts of the coast in the past two days, THE HEAVIEST RAIN IN MORE THAN 20 YEARS. Proserpine, north of Mackay, has been one of the wettest areas with about 450mm in 48 hours – their biggest rainfall since January 1991. Further north, Bowen has had about 400mm, their highest two-day total since February 1991.

Weatherzone meteorologists said it had rained for 23 days in the region this month, about 10 more than normal. “An unstable area of converging winds will slowly edge north and take the focus of rain closer to Townsville in the next few days and further north from the weekend. There’s not a huge amount of relief ahead in the Bowen, Proserpine and Mackay area, with another 100mm still possible. Once the heavy rain eases in the next day or two, frequent showers are still likely into next week in fresh southeasterly winds.” Flood warnings have been issued for coastal rivers between Townsville and Mackay, including the Don River. Proserpine had had ITS WETTEST MARCH IN AT LEAST 33 YEARS with about 900mm of rain. “Mackay has also had heavy downpours … lifting its monthly total to over 700mm.” The southeast didn’t escape the rainfall, with the wet weather causing a spate of car accidents and long delays for commuters across Brisbane throughout the day.

THAILAND – Severe flooding after days of torrential rain across the south of Thailand has killed at least 15 people and stranded thousands of tourists. Trains to the region have been cancelled and several airports shut. Mainland roads are also blocked.

Odd weather puzzles Thailand academics - The extreme weather events that have assailed Thailand during what is normally midsummer – a severe cold snap in the northern half of the country and massive flooding in the South – have forced puzzled professors to throw out their forecasting textbooks. “Our department is seeking what has caused such extreme events. We’re studying why a high pressure area from China could persist and reach many parts of Thailand during the summer,” the deputy director general of the Meteorological Department said. A lecturer at the Disaster and Land Information Studies Unit of Chulalongkorn University urged the government to invest in and pay more attention to more accurate weather forecasts for particular areas to prevent damage and loss. The current natural phenomenon during summertime was VERY STRANGE.

“A similar situation was recorded in 1986, but that was in early March, between the cold and hot seasons. So it was understandable it could occur in the transition period. But it is now different, as it is cold and rainy in late March. The cold spell will last for two days, and the weather will then go back to hot as usual.” The latest flood bulletin for the South issued by the department warned that torrential rain would continue falling over much of the area. People should beware of flooding conditions in the following one or two days. After that, there would be less rain. One said this odd weather was a side effect of La Nina, but another said La Nina was not a direct factor. La Nina appeared in July last year. It caused huge floods in the Northeast, especially in Nakhon Ratchasima, and in the South, Songkhla’s Hat Yai district in particular. “According to the latest foreign models that use sea surface temperatures to forecast La Nina and El Nino, La Nina will last until May.” Both said this summer would not be as hot as last summer. “Extreme events can cause disasters such as droughts, flooding and cold weather. They will affect plants and agricultural produce or even kill people. So it’s time for the government to establish an independent organisation to help forecast possible disasters based on academic knowledge to reduce losses.”

AUSTRALIA – A disaster zone has been declared in the north Queensland township of Hideaway Bay which has been partially smothered by massive mudslides over the last few days. Only light rain fell overnight but with downpours expected today. People who were evacuated from their homes yesterday will not be allowed to return until the risk is reassessed. “We’re expecting between 100 and 200mm of rain today, 10 houses are still evacuated and they’ll remain evacuated. The area was declared a disaster yesterday afternoon but I haven’t had any more reports of slips last night, and a geotech engineer will check the site again today before he goes back to Brisbane.” More than 600mm of rain has been recorded around Hideaway Bay since Tuesday, triggering massive landslides which dumped knee deep mud and rocks across two roads.

WASHINGTON – Major flooding expected in King, Snohomish counties. Heavy overnight rain from a tropical storm in the area also prompted flood warnings for the Stillaguamish, Puyallup, Tolt and Green rivers in King, Pierce and Snohomish counties. A flood watch remained in effect for eight other counties. The National Weather Service said the rain, delivered in the form of a “plume of subtropical moisture,” was expected to be heavy at times on Thursday on the coast and in the mountains. Conditions should be drier by today. Two days of rain in the Cascades – and a forecast for another 4 to 8 inches Thursday – is what’s causing the flooding. An avalanche warning was also issued for the Cascades and Olympics. The storm has largely skipped Seattle and central and north Puget Sound areas.

EXTREME HEAT / WILDFIRES / DROUGHT / CLIMATE CHANGE-

Massive robotic clouds will float above Qatar to shade their World Cup stadiums. Organizers have taken heat over the potentially dangerous summer temperatures in Qatar. But the Arab emirate has come up with a futuristic solution, and as usual, cost is not an issue. Summertime temps in Qatar can reach 122°F (50°C). Players and spectators alike face serious health risks in such sweltering heat, even leading the FIFA president to (albeit unsuccessfully) lobby for playing the World Cup in the winter months.

So it was back to the drawing board for the desert nation, and scientists have hatched a plan to hover giant robotic clouds over the venues to keep out the sun. The clouds are essentially massive blimps, filled with helium, and will be floated above stadiums. Four onboard solar-powered engines will allow the clouds to be controlled from the ground, shifting along with the sun’s zenith, serving as a huge umbrella in the sky to shade spectators and athletes. The clouds come at a cost of $500,000 each, pocket change for the Middle Eastern nation.

UN report: Cities ignore climate change at their peril – Urban areas are set to become the battleground in the global effort to curb climate change, the UN has warned. The assessment by UN-Habitat said that the world’s cities were responsible for about 70% of emissions, yet only occupied 2% of the planet’s land cover. While cities were energy intensive, the study also said that effective urban planning could deliver huge savings. The authors warned of a “deadly collision between climate change and urbanisation” if no action was taken. “We are seeing how urbanisation is growing – we have passed the threshold of 50% (of the world’s population living in urban areas). There are no signs that we are going to diminish this path of growth, and we know that with urbanisation, energy consumption is higher.”

According to UN data, an estimated 59% of the world’s population will be living in urban areas by 2030. Every year, the number of people who live in cities and town grows by 67 million each year – 91% of this figure is being added to urban populations in developing countries. The main reasons why urban areas were energy intensive was a result of increased transport use, heating and cooling homes and offices, as well as economic activity to generate income. The report added that as well as cities’ contribution to climate change, towns and cities around the globe were also vulnerable to the potential consequences, such as: Increase in the frequency of warm spells/heat waves over most land areas, Greater number of heavy downpours, Growing number of areas affected by drought, Increase in the incidence of extremely high sea levels in some parts of the world.

As well as the physical risks posed by future climate change, some urban areas will face difficulties providing basic services. “These changes will affect water supply, physical infrastructure, transport, ecosystem goods and services, energy provision and industrial production. Local economies will be disrupted and populations will be stripped of their assets and livelihoods.”

A recent assessment highlighted a number of regions where urban areas were at risk from climate-related hazards, such as droughts, landslides, cyclones and flooding. These included sub-Saharan Africa, South and South East Asia, southern Europe, the east coast of South America and the west coast of the US.

AUSTRALIA - Perth city has recorded its HOTTEST AND SUNNIEST MARCH ON RECORD. The Bureau of Meteorology reports that Perth’s mean daily maximum temperature in March was 31.9c, breaking the previous record of 31.8c set in 1978. The average temperature for Perth in March was 29.5C.

Perth Metro also recorded zero rainfall during March, which has occurred on six other occasions, the last being in 2004. Up to March 31, Perth had not recorded rainfall for 58 days, the longest dry spell since a 78-day run between November 21 to February 6, 2010. Perth’s longest dry spell since records began in 1876 was 83 days between December 15, 1974 and March 7, 1975. Daily temperatures in the city in the first three months of 2011 were mostly two to three degrees above normal.

Perth’s mean daily maximum temperature for January to March was 32.9C, the HOTTEST START TO THE YEAR SINCE RECORDS BEGAN in 1897, breaking the previous record of 32.3C set in 1978. The average for the January to March period was 30.5C. Perth also recorded average daily sunshine of 11.0 hours in March, the sunniest March on record. The average rate of sunshine for March in Perth is 9.5 hours per day.

SPACE NEWS-

NEW ZEALAND – 3/29/11 – ‘Desk-sized’ meteor streaks across New Zealand’s night sky. It wasn’t a bird a plane or a UFO, but authorities say a meteor spotted last night in New Zealand skies could have been the size of a desk. Reports of the bright flashing light were received from Auckland and as far south as Wellington about 11pm local time, while some Kiwis reported hearing a sonic boom. Eyewitness reports have described a very bright blue light which lit up the sky like daylight. Police say they received about a dozen calls from people concerned the light was an emergency flare.

Devastation

By Johanna

While pondering on what I should write about this week the word devastation popped into my head. I am sure it has a lot to do with what has happened in Japan recently. There has been many cases of devastation around the globe in past years which I feel is going to become even worse in the next few months. Why are we suffering so many devastations? Where are these devastations coming from? Who is causing these devastations?

Those questions are very simple to answer if you ponder on them and search the Word. We are suffering these devastations because Father is angry at the disobedience we His creation are showing. These devastations are coming from Father’s Cherubic Order of Holy Angels. They are following His orders in order to bring about prophecy that are mentioned in the Word. Father is the one who is commanding His warriors to cause these devastations and His warriors are being OBEDIENT to their CREATOR and their FATHER. Read and ponder the scriptures below. Search through the Word to read more on devastation, destruction and anger.

Psalm 46:8 8 Come, see the works of the LORD, who brings devastation on the earth.

Isaiah 47:11 But disaster will happen to you; you will not know how to avert it. And it will fall on you, but you will be unable to ward it off. Devastation will happen to you suddenly and unexpectedly.

Joel 1:15

The Day of the LORD

15 Woe because of that day! For the Day of the LORD is near and will come as devastation from the Almighty.

The Journey Continues

Regina

There are many days in which I feel as though I must stop and focus and just try to get through the next 24 hours, some days even just the next hour, and then that day passes and the next arrives and passes, and arrives until all of a sudden a year has passed, and then two and four and now five. It’s odd how time can seem to pass so slowly and quickly at the same time. Many of these days, the good and the not-so-good, I will recount here and many have receded to the deeper recesses of my mind but what I’m able to remember, I share with you here honestly and openly…

On October 2nd or 3rd of 2005, I was on this website were there were camera’s placed through out peoples homes who claimed that they were being haunted. I have always liked supernatural things. I believed in ghost, angels and demons. I started talking to this woman and asked her how she see’s the things that she does. I also told her that I believed in spirit guides. She told me that she couldn’t help me with the guides but that she knew of a website where I could find some answers. She sent me the link to a forum by the name of “Beyond This World”. After looking at a few things and noticing that they had psychic exercises I decided to sign up to become a member…

Word came to us toward the end of May 2010 that we were to begin documenting our experiences ending where Chosen left off. Each Minister is to produce a “book” of our own that will be incorporated into Chosen. Its a little daunting to say the least. I have not been journaling as Regina has been (it isn’t something I naturally do). Also, I actually do not have a very good memory. But I trust that those things that Father wishes us to recall we will. We have been guided by Michael to read the book of ACTS to guide us. It seems to focus on events that show times of strong guidance from/interactions with Holy Spirit…

In 2006, I was able to reconnect with a long time friend. I found out she had co-authored a book. Considering how we had grown up together I was interested in the fact that she had written one and wanted to read it myself. She, Regina, sent me the book and some more details about it. I found out it was a lot to take in and did so in baby steps with much prayer and guidance from Father. I was blessed to freely ask any question of Regina and felt comfortable in doing so. I read the book with an open mind and while some of it confirmed my deepest suspicions other information provided was such an eye-opener…

1/18/11 Was Michael split off Christ? Can the mystery be decoded?

1 Kings 16:21 “At that time the people of Israel were split in half: half the people followed Tibni son of Ginath, to make him king, and half followed Omri.”

Genesis 15:10 “So he brought all these to Him, split them down the middle, and laid the pieces opposite each other, but he did not cut up the birds.”

Psalm 78:13 “He split the sea and brought them across; the water stood firm like a wall.”

Christ crosses them over to salvation, and Michael (the split water) stands firm – stands up for Christ and Yahweh’s people.

Daniel 10:21 “No one has the courage to support me against them except Michael, your prince. However, I will tell you what is recorded in the book of truth.”

Michael has the courage of a lion. His courage stems from his position to Yahweh before he became the Christ. Only Michael can be fully trusted by Yahweh to vindicate Her name and lead the holy angelic forces in destruction of Satan’s children. Christ cannot be seated at the throne and act as a warrior unless he s split to function in both positions.

Daniel 12:1 “At that time Michael the great prince who stands watch over your people will rise up. There will be a time of distress such as never has occurred since nations came into being until that time. But at that time all your people who are found written in the book will escape.”

Genesis 15:10 “So he brought all these to Him, split them down the middle,”

Exodus 14:21 “Then Moses stretched out his hand over the sea. The LORD drove the sea [back] with a powerful east wind all that night and turned the sea into dry land. So the waters were divided,”

Christ gives the drink of life, and Michael gives the drink of death. Both have cups that are filled with drink that is opposite of one another. Divided to perform two important tasks. Christ is the Savior, and Michael is his warrior half who lead the battle in cleansing Heaven, just as Yahweh is the Father and a warrior, and also is Israel (Yahweh’s female side) Israel the Mother.

1/18/11 Can the U.S. military effectively fill the vacuum in taking over commercial civilian flights when the industry goes defunct later this year?

Is there a diabolical plot being hatched that is slowly enabling the government to take control of key positions within the nation’s private sector? How can the beast keep itself afloat in a deathbed economy and a nonexistent gold reserve that is more protected to hide that secret than it is to protect the few bars of gold that are mixed in with the fake gold? How much longer can Satan keep blinders on the eyes of those on his Titanic Beast that is slowly sinking into the abyss of agony?

Psalm 48:6 “Trembling seized them there, agony like that of a woman in labor,”

The residents of the United States are presently feeling the labor pains, and “labor” is mirrored in the loss of jobs that is causing the domino effect as the U.S. economy continues its collapse into the pit of despair.

Isaiah 13:8 “They will be horrified; pain and agony will seize [them]; they will be in anguish like a woman in labor. They will look at each other, their faces flushed with fear.”

Satan asks this question, because children, no one dominates our Warrior Father Yahweh:

Psalm 13:2 “How long will I store up anxious concerns within me, agony in my mind every day? How long will my enemy dominate me?”

For as long as it takes… to make a footstool out of your children Satan.

Luke 20:42-44 For David himself says in the Book of Psalms: The Lord declared to my Lord, Sit at My right hand until I make Your enemies Your footstool.”

Hebrews 1:13 “Now to which of the angels has He ever said: Sit at My right hand until I make Your enemies Your footstool ?”

Does this not imply that Christ is an angel? If Christ is of angelic origin, then he is not also Yahweh, or the so-called Trinity god of three in one. Yahweh is spirit, but not an angel.

Hebrews 10:12-14 (Holman Christian Standard Bible) “But this man, after offering one sacrifice for sins forever, sat down at the right hand of God. He is now waiting until His enemies are made His footstool. For by one offering He has perfected forever those who are sanctified.”

If Christ and Michael are the same angelic energy, and Christ is committed to remain seated until his enemies are trampled beneath his feet, then Michael must be split off Christ to do a specific job in rendering Satan’s brood into a footstool.

2 Chronicles 9:18 “The throne had six steps; there was a footstool covered in gold for the throne, armrests on either side of the seat, and two lions standing beside the armrests.”

Two Lions of Zion. Michael and Seraiah serving the throne of Yahweh to lead the way in toppling Satan’s present beast.

Joe - Children, the LOZ are about to spread the radiation from Japan over the United States. It’s ironic that the USA bombed them with 2 atomic bombs and now they are the source of what will help to devastate the 48 states with radiation.

The Beast taken to task for past conduct:

“The destruction of Hiroshima and Nagasaki was a war crime worse than any that Japanese generals were executed for in Tokyo and Manila. If Harry Truman was not a war criminal, then no one ever was.”

http://www.lewrockwell.com/raico/raico22.html

This to is ironic. The one that started this spiritual war now spilling over into the material world accuses our Mother Yahweh of being criminal by quaking Japan and causing the tsunami that cost so much human life and property damage. Calling Her an murderer. He seems to forget he was the one that broke the cycle of tranquility, not our Mother.

The demons have mounted an offensive. They are trying to shift the winds back away from the USA. This is resulting in a fierce battle with the LOZ whom are directing the winds towards the USA.

Regina - There’s some good casts in this blast picture – I see a giant A, among other things.

Joe -

3/14/11 California is Next

Joe: Although Satan has a strong defense around his child – the United States – the LOZ have set their sites on California. It is the next hot spot that they will bring hell on earth to. Can Satan halt the LOZ’s assault? We shall see children. They gave their warning in the aftermath of the Japan disaster. The LOZ must presently work within the laws of the natural order, but when Armageddon occurs, that is when they will take a direct approach to exterminating mankind. But for the present involving the bowls of anger, they must follow the rules of Mother Yahweh’s natural order.

To know if you are a child of Satan or Yahweh, you must ask yourself who are you rooting for? If you want to save the earth and its inhabitants from the bowls of anger, then you are Satan’s child. If you want Mother Yahweh to follow through… on administering Her punishment, then you are with Her side.

Why does the hand of Yahweh speak in imagery such as marked in pics? Because only those with insight can read the signs. Although it is cast for all to see, those with closed minds and self-assuming attitudes cannot see what is in front of their eyes. The same as it was in the days of the preflood era before the flood swept them away. They did not comprehend the TRUTH of what was before their eyes.

There is also another meaning: The lower 48 States of the UNITED STATES. 4 and 8. Hawaii has already felt part of Japan’s wake of fury, but Alaska will suffer from a Russian catastrophe that carries over its way. The lower 48 will be riddled by earthquakes and other natural disasters, such as hail, tornadoes, failing infrastructures,etc. Just because the LOZ will pull back in the 5th month does not mean Yahweh will personally halt Her anger on this planet.

More on the LOZ, Deborah’s pic.

Moon Man softens quake predictions for New Zealand – backing away from his prediction that Christchurch will be whacked by a huge earthquake today. Oon September 7 – days after the first big earthquake – he made his first online seismic predictions on his predictweather.com website. He wrote “the morning of 20 March 2011 sees the South Island again in a big earthquake risk”. At 9.44am the moon would be at its closest point to earth for 2011. “All factors should come together for a moon-shot straight through the centre of the earth and targeting NZ. The time will be just before noon. It could be another for the history books.” The fear was such yesterday that even residents staying in the stricken city were stocking up on petrol, water and other disaster supplies. Other Christchurch residents have left the city for fear of being trapped in another earthquake.

His back-pedalling comes as the Herald on Sunday reveals his background as a magician and and fortune-teller – with expertise understanding a cat’s “psychic” influences by studying its paws. He has refused to defend his claims that have terrified Cantabrians and led to people fleeing Christchurch. On weatherwatch.co.nz this week, he said he never predicted another earthquake on March 20 exactly. “I said the 20th but I also qualified it only as a potential, as with all my forecasts. I would never be so silly and presumptive as to state (and mean) something WILL happen, when there are so many factors and unknown variables in weather and earthquakes. Would it not be more constructive to offer hope and prayers for the people of Christchurch who have lost so much, rather than to continue to kick at me for imagined inconsistencies?”

He was former president of the now-defunct New Zealand Society of Magicians and is described on indexnz.com as a lecturer, speech therapist, author, actor, clown and magician known as Mathman. He is co-author of Pawmistry: How to Read Your Cat’s Paws, which teaches ways to read a cat’s mood and “explores the psychic influences that numerology and the zodiac have on your cat”. The Sceptics Society are holding a lunch to mock the prediction. “He’s created a lot of genuine fear and that’s not a good thing. I’ve got no problem he’s not a scientist but to be credible you have to be consistently accurate and pinpoint things.”

[JUDGE FOR YOURSELF if you think his prediction failed, or not ] – Significant overnight Christchurch earthquake aftershock – A small dairy was damaged in Christchurch following a magnitude 5.1aftershock that rattled quake-weary residents Saturday night. The significant shake hit at 9.47pm, 10km east of the city and was 10km deep, making it ONE OF THE STRONGEST since the horrific 6.3 earthquake on February 22 which killed an estimated 182 people. There were no reports of injury, but Civil Defence had received one confirmed report of damage to a small dairy in suburban Christchurch. A cordon was being established around the building and a further assessment of its condition would be made in the morning. A quick inspection of buildings in the inner city had shown that some loose masonry has fallen, but a full assessment would also be made in daylight. The 5.1 aftershock was one of three to hit the city in quick succession overnight. It was preceded by a quake measuring 3.0 at 9.43pm, 10km west of Lyttelton, at a depth of 5km, and followed by quakes measuring 2.9 at 10.05pm and 3.2 at 1.22am. One source said the first tremor was what Christchurch residents had become accustomed to as a “fairly standard” aftershock, but the second 5.1 jolt was much STRONGER AND LASTED A LOT LONGER. Many aftershocks have been recorded since February 22. [Further aftershocks of 4.6 & 4.5 hit on the 20th.]

The number of people confirmed dead or listed as missing in Japan has topped 21,000.

North Koreans told to use pets as early warning quake system, amid heightened fears following Japan’s quake and tsunami disaster. Governments worldwide have focused on ensuring their alert systems go some way to protecting them against the horror wreaked by natural disasters such as the massive tremor and giant waves which killed thousands in Japan on March 11.

While Pyongyang has also told North Koreans about the technology it has in place to anticipate disasters, state media urged the public to take note when animals behave oddly. People should beware if they see dogs barking incessantly, cattle refusing to eat or horses constantly trying to storm out of stables. Evidence of the reliability of animal behaviour in predicting quakes remains mixed, although National Geographic reported after the 2004 Indian Ocean Tsunami that many species fled to safety before the catastrophe. Elephants ran for higher ground, dogs refused to go outdoors and flamingos abandoned their low-lying breeding areas, nationalgeographic.com reported. “The belief that wild and domestic animals possess a sixth sense – and know in advance when the earth is going to shake – has been around for centuries.” It is thought that low-frequency electromagnetic signals may cause animals to behave unusually before an earthquake.

Japan disaster raises fear of megaquake cluster – Some experts think big earthquakes can trigger other giant temblors. Most experts believe giant earthquakes happen randomly. The 9.0-magnitude temblor that devastated Japan on March 11 may be changing that assumption.

The Japan disaster followed two damaging earthquakes in New Zealand in recent months and an 8.8-magnitude quake off the coast of Chile in late February 2010. “Chile, New Zealand, and now we have seen this. The general consensus is that this is strictly a coincidence, but there are people who believe there are clusters of these events. A lot of people are investigating these clusters. They have happened in the past.”

Some seismologists argue that mega-earthquakes cluster in 50-year cycles. Under this theory, the last cycle is supposed to have happened in the 1960s, when the two largest megaquakes of the 20th century hit — a 9.5-magnitude Chilean temblor in 1960 and a 9.2-magnitude event in Alaska in 1964. USGS records indicate that seven of the 16 largest earthquakes since 1900 hit between 1950 and 1965. The recent spate of big quakes may be part of a new cluster. Five of the 16 largest temblors have happened since the end of 2004, according data which includes Friday’s quake in Japan.

Near the beginning of the 20th century, there were also a number of major earthquakes — in 1906 there were three big ones, including the temblor on the San Andreas fault that devastated San Francisco. “The overall belief is that quakes are relatively RARE on this size, and they can happen in groups purely by chance. That said, there are a lot of things we don’t understand about how they are triggered. When one of these big ones happens, the planet rings like a bell. If another is close to rupture, this may bring it closer.”

Still, other scientists question the historical data used to support the megaquake-cluster theory. Indeed, when the big quakes hit in 1906, seismic recording was in its infancy, so it’s not clear how powerful some of the events really were.

JAPAN – The deadly earthquake and tsunami that hit northern Japan could cost its economy up to $235 billion.

Quake survivors wonder why government is taking so long to send aid. – A week after the deadly magnitude-9.0 earthquake and even deadlier tsunami, the newly homeless are huddling hungry and cold in emergency shelters. And people are wondering where, exactly, their government is. Most victims have endured their privations with stoicism, but anger is rising over the lack of basic services. After a major quake in Kobe in 1995, organized-crime groups were handing out blankets and food within hours; the government dithered for days. Afterward, officials pledged to speed up decision-making and marshaling of resources to stricken areas in times of crisis. “The Japanese government should have learned from the Kobe earthquake that they would need help, but they didn’t.” It appeared Japan was totally unprepared for the disaster. “It’s unthinkable, after several days, that there are still no supplies down here.”

The official count of dead and missing in the quake and tsunami topped 18,000, making it Japan’s worst disaster since World War II. Establishing a final toll will probably take weeks, but the National Police Agency said the official death count had reached 7,197, exceeding that of the 1995 Kobe earthquake, and the number of those unaccounted for stood at 10,905. Recovery crews have yet to comb through enormous piles of tsunami-deposited debris in some remote areas. Nearly 1 million homes remain without electricity in the quake zone, and rolling blackouts have been taking place elsewhere. As the threat of blackouts has intensified, one activist called on Japan to unplug millions of vending machines that dispense items such as hot corn soup and bouquets of flowers.

South Florida water table rose after quake - The South Florida Water Management District says the groundwater level rose for about 34 minutes after the quake struck on March 11. The agency’s monitoring network registered a spike from Orlando to the Florida Keys. The agency was not expecting to see any effect from the earthquake because of the large distance from Japan. Changes in groundwater levels were also observed after the quakes in Haiti and Chile last year.

Does the Japan Quake Make a US Quake More Likely? - Seismically speaking, it’s been a rough few months on the Pacific rim. On February 27, 2010, an 8.8-magnitude earthquake struck Chile. In September, two major quakes rocked New Zealand’s South Island, and a 6.3 followed in February in Christchurch. Just a few weeks after that, the devastating 9.0 quake struck Japan, causing a tsunami and a nuclear crisis. These quakes occurred on three of the four “corners” of the notoriously jumpy Ring of Fire. The other corner? The West Coast of the United States. So does this series of earthquakes up the US’s chances of the dreaded “Big One”? A Newsweek story from last week suggests that the answer is yes, since the earth is “like a great brass bell, which when struck by an enormous hammer blow on one side sets to vibrating and ringing from all over.” Rogue seismologist Jim Berkland, who claims to be able to predict earthquakes based in part on tides and the moon, has also warned that a major US quake is imminent.

Seismologists agree that major quakes do have local ripple effects. In addition to aftershocks, which can contine for a few weeks after a quake the size of Japan’s, earthquakes can also beget more earthquakes on other parts of the same plate, or even on nearby faults. When a quake occurs, stress is relieved in one area of a plate and transferred to other parts of that plate. “So, unhappily, we know that Port-au-Prince [Haiti] is at even greater risk than it was before the quake last year. And the recent earthquake in Christchurch [New Zealand] was probably ‘triggered’ by the one that occurred in September the year before.”

How far can the transferred stress travel? There are increased levels of stress as far as 186 miles from the epicenter of the March 11 quake in Japan. The New Zealand earthquakes all occurred within a few hundred miles; they were probably connected. Similarly, the quake that struck the Indian Ocean and triggered a tsunami in 2004 likely triggered another series of quakes in Sumatra in 2007. Some scientists believe the stress transfer zones can extend even further. “The recent spurt of magnitude-8-plus earthquakes may be an extended aftershock sequence of the 2004 Sumatra earthquake.” But seismologists aren’t in agreement about this point, and the bottom line is that there’s not enough data to say conclusively whether they’re all related. And there’s certainly no evidence that a quake can transfer stress across as great of a distance as that between Japan and the US. “That’s too far for stress to act.” Which is not to say that the Big One isn’t imminent, or that we shouldn’t take precautions. The West Coast straddles several fault lines.”

Why can’t we predict the next big quake? - Why can’t seismologists predict earthquakes? It’s a question and a frustration that understandably springs to mind in the aftermath of a tragedy like the one that continues to unfold in Japan. In the 1970s and 1980s (not exactly ancient times), leading scientists were quoted in the media expressing optimism that reliable, short-term prediction was just around the corner. Several decades later, the earthquake science community is older and wiser. We have learned, in short, that prediction is a tough nut to crack. To make the kind of accurate, short-term predictions people want, one would need to identify a reliable precursor – some signal that we could observe that tells us that a big quake is imminent.

Any number of possible precursors have been suggested and explored. Many seemed promising, but none has stood up to rigorous examination. So far as we have been able to tell, the earth simply does not provide any observable signal to tell us a big quake is on the way. What we know for sure is that preparedness remains our best defense against devastating earthquakes.

The earth does not reliably produce big earthquakes on full moons, notwithstanding the predictions that have come out of the woodwork for the days around this month’s especially big full moon. (Recall that the moon was unremarkably new on the day the Japan quake struck.) So, when seismologists are asked whether earthquakes can be predicted, we tend to be quick to answer no, mindful of the years of research and experience in the field of seismology.

Sometimes even seismologists forget that in many of the ways that matter most, earthquakes are TOO predictable. We call it forecasting. This means we know where the active earthquake zones are on the planet. And, for many if not most of these zones, we have quite good estimates, based on various types of data, of the expected long-term average rates of earthquakes. We can say with some confidence that, in many of these zones, the next Big One might not be within the lifetime of any individual alive today but is very likely to occur within the lifetime of many of the buildings being constructed today. Any active plate boundary is fair game for a big earthquake, any time.

The scientific consensus is that the monster quakes, approaching and exceeding magnitude 9, are restricted to subduction zones such as the one where a magnitude-9 earthquake triggered the Japan tsunami. Along the type of plate boundary found in California and Turkey, among other places, the Big One might be “merely” magnitude 8. Pointing to any one corner of the Earth as the location of the next Big One is not a winning game. Take a map of the world’s most active plate boundaries and throw a dart; where it lands is as good a guess as any. The only valid reason for imminent concern about any particular area is, oddly enough, right after a big earthquake has struck. Take Japan for example, where the risk from aftershocks is substantial.

Many people reading this might be tempted to feel thankful that they are not living within one of the planet’s hot zones. Who in their right mind would live in California, anyway? Well, guess what.

There are places where big quakes are especially unlikely (but not impossible) – for example, central Canada. But there are other notable places where scientists know that damaging earthquakes are entirely possible. Southeastern Missouri; Charleston, South Carolina; Boston – these regions have all experienced earthquakes larger than the magnitude-6.1 Christchurch, New Zealand, event , just within the short historic record. A magnitude-6.1 quake under Boston, or any city along the Atlantic seaboard, would be unlikely but would not shock any earth scientist. At present, many scientists are pessimistic that prediction will ever be possible, although the jury is still out. Research continues with increasingly sophisticated methods and data.

What we know for sure is that preparedness remains our best defense against devastating earthquakes. As tragic as the disaster in Japan is, it clearly would have been much worse without that country’s decades of investment in preparedness – the stringent building codes, early warning systems, tsunami systems and citizen education. It is sobering to consider the potential aftermath of a huge, or even pretty big, earthquake in parts of the world where preparedness efforts have lagged. If the risks seem hypothetical, now is a good time to ask, are they acceptable?

Japan disaster likely to be world’s costliest. - Japan’s government said the cost of the earthquake and tsunami that devastated the northeast could reach $309 billion, making it the WORLD’S MOST EXPENSIVE NATURAL DISASTER ON RECORD. The extensive damage to housing, roads, utilities and businesses across seven prefectures has resulted in direct losses of between 16 trillion yen ($198 billion) and 25 trillion yen ($309 billion). If the government’s projection proves correct, it would top the losses from Hurricane Katrina. The 2005 megastorm that ravaged New Orleans and the surrounding region cost $125 billion. Japan’s estimate does not include the impact of power shortages triggered by damage to a nuclear power plant, so the overall economic impact could be even higher. It also leaves out potential global repercussions.

“The aftermath of the tragic events in Japan will obviously alter the domestic economy. However, Japan’s position in the global economy is such that there must also be some transmission of the shock to other parts of the world.” The Cabinet Office suggested, however, that the economic hit could be softened by the expected upswing in public works and construction as the region rebuilds.

Utilities have imposed power rationing, many factories remain closed and key rail lines are impassable. The Japanese economy has been lackluster for two decades, barely managing to eke out weak growth between slowdowns. It lost its position as world’s No. 2 economy to China last year and is saddled with a massive public debt that, at 200 percent of GDP, is the biggest among industrialized nations. The government plans to introduce a supplementary budget to tackle reconstruction, though Cabinet members have said additional budgets will probably be needed down the road.

The government also reportedly plans to inject public money into banks to help support lending as companies rebuild. It may finance that from a fund of 11 trillion yen ($135 billion) that is still available under a law on emergency support to banks passed after the 2008 collapse of Lehman Brothers.

LATEST JAPAN NEWS -

2158: The impact of the earthquake in figures: At least 1.04 million households were without running water; at least 1170,000 buildings were damaged with at least 14,623 completely destroyed; about 257,000 homes were without electricity and about About 362,580 people have been evacuated and are staying at shelters

2125: Foreign businesses have been moving out of Tokyo as a result of the quake, Japanese newspaper Asahi Shimbun reports. It follows an earlier report from the Japan Times that Osaka was the destination of choice for a number of businesses uncertain about the effects of radiation and affected by frequent electricity blackouts.

2105: Thirteen long hours after they began spraying water at the Fukushima nuclear reactor, fire fighters have ended their operation.

2024: The UN’s nuclear chief and a team of experts have been in Japan monitoring radiation levels and the actions being taken to sort out the Fukushima reactors. “My impression is that the Japanese side is strengthening activities to overcome, to stabilise the reactors. I hope that safety, stability will be recovered as soon as possible. But I still don’t think it is time to say that I think they are going in a good direction or not.”

1841: The cloud plume from Fukushima has now reached the western Atlantic, but radioactivity is likely to be “extremely low” with no impact on health or the environment.

1635: The US Pacific Command ships “report sighting much less debris at sea now, unlike a week ago when large debris fields [were spotted] as far as 20 nautical miles offshore.”

1632: The key development so far: Engineers are trying to reconnect some of the plant’s six reactors to a power grid. They have made managed to lay down connect one cable but electricity is not yet restored and it is still unclear if their cooling systems will work once power does return.

1556: Japan’s level of nuclear alert was raised on Friday, drawing parallels with the nuclear crisis at Three Mile Island in the US in 1979. But there are stark differences as one nuclear engineer says: “It’s probably not politically correct to say it, but Three Mile Island was a piece of cake compared to what they’re facing over there.”

1121: The Oshika peninsula in Miyagi prefecture has moved 5.3m (17.4 feet) and dropped 1.2m since the devastating March 11 quake – both RECORDS FOR LAND MASS MOVEMENTS IN JAPAN.

1025: There are still no reports of damage following the 6.1-magnitude quake that hit Ibaraki prefecture. Japan has been hit by hundreds of aftershocks since 11 March, many strong, but this one may cause additional concern as its epicentre is close to the damaged nuclear plant at Fukushima.

0720: Abnormally high radiation levels have been detected in samples of milk and spinach from the region close to the nuclear plant.

0531: Last week’s tsunami reached heights of around 20 metres on the Sanriku coast. The Sanriku coastline is jagged, a factor which apparently increased the height of the tsunami. Among their investigations, researchers found wreckage on top of a three-storey building near the ocean.

0349: The operator of the Fukushima power plant says engineers have bored holes in the roofs of the buildings housing reactors 5 and 6 to avoid a potential gas explosion.

JAPAN MAPS – tsunami, quake, nuclear threat, etc.

The United Nations nuclear agency says there have been positive developments in Japan’s efforts to tackle a nuclear emergency after the quake. Smoke or vapour rising from one of the overheating reactors at the damaged Fukushima power plant had become less intense. But it said the overall situation remained very serious.

The official death toll has now risen to 8,450, with 12,931 people missing. Electricity has been restored to three reactors at the crippled Fukushima nuclear power plant – this should allow the use of on-site water pumps soon. Engineers have been spraying fuel rods with salt water to try to them the rods cool enough to avert radiation leakage. Villagers living near the plant have been told not to drink tap water due to higher levels of radioactive iodine. “We consider that now we have come to a situation where we are very close to getting the situation under control.”

FUKUSHIMA UPDATE

Reactor 1: Fuel rods damaged after explosion. Power lines attached

Reactor 2: Damage to the core, prompted by a blast, helped trigger raising of the nuclear alert level. Power lines attached

Reactor 3: Contains plutonium, core damaged by explosion. Fuel ponds refilled with water in operation

Reactor 4: Hit by explosion and fire, temperature of spent fuel pond now said to have dropped after water spraying

Reactors 5 & 6: Temperature of spent fuel pools now lowered after rising dangerously high. Diesel generators powering cooling systems.

Search-and-relief efforts in the prefecture of Miyagi, where the police chief believes the final quake-tsunami death toll could reach 15,000, have been delayed by driving rain. “We have been using helicopters to deliver relief goods to some places but for today we have to switch the delivery to places that we can reach by road.” Residents are trying to get a semblance of normal life back, despite fears of contamination Heavy rain has intensified fears of radiation contamination too.

Attention has also turned to contamination of food supplies. Over the weekend spinach and milk produced near the Fukushima nuclear plant was found to contain levels of radioactive iodine far higher than the legal limits, although not at levels that would be a risk to human health. Radioactive materials three times higher than the legal safety limit were detected in the water there. There are still shortages of food, water, and medicine in some of the worst affected parts of the country. Nearly 900,000 households are still without water. More than 35,000 people are still living in evacuation centres.

“Even if certain things go smoothly, there would be twists and turns. At the moment, we are not so optimistic that there will be a breakthrough.” Rescue workers have said the business of collecting bodies has become more disturbing with the passage of time. “The recent bodies – we can’t show them to the families. The faces have been purple, which means they are starting to decompose.

“Some we’re finding now have been in the water for a long time, they’re not in good shape. Crabs and fish have eaten parts.” But there was some good news after an 80-year-old woman and her grandson were found alive in the rubble of Ishinomaki city.

As far as 20km away from the Fukushima nuclear plant in Japan, radiation recorded at levels 1600 times higher than normal.

Radiation Surge Hampers Power Connection to Japan Reactor – Engineers at Japan’s stricken nuclear plant are unable to connect power to one of four damaged reactors, marring progress to cool the fuel rods. A level of 500 millisieverts per hour “days ago” at the No. 2 reactor turbine forced workers to suspend repairs and they have yet to restart, a spokesman for the Japan Nuclear and Industrial Safety Agency told reporters today. The reading would mean a worker in the vicinity would receive the maximum recommended lifetime dose in just 30 minutes.

Restoring power is key to ending the crisis at reactors that have leaked radiation into the ocean and air and forced the government to evacuate thousands of local residents. Workers have been battling to prevent a meltdown after losing electricity that helps circulate cooling water to the units following the March 11 temblor and tsunami. Lights are on in the control room at the No. 3 reactor and there is some lighting working at No. 4. Tepco, as it is known, will check measuring instruments in the No. 1 unit before turning on the power.

Workers are attempting to restore an electricity-powered water pumping system at the No. 3 reactor by tomorrow, reducing the need to spray the unit from outside. Temperatures at the No. 1 reactor pressure vessel exceeded 400 degrees Celsius (752 Fahrenheit) before water spraying brought it down to 390 degree. Two workers were injured overnight while working to restore power.

The immediate power outage after the quake made communication difficult and it took about half a day to create an emergency operations center. “They’ve made considerable progress bringing equipment to the plant and restoring power. But THEY’RE NOT OUT OF THE WOODS YET. THEY ARE WORKING WITH RAZOR-THIN MARGINS.”

The decay of radioactive fuel rods containing uranium and plutonium at the plant was suspected by company officials five days after the earthquake and tsunami. 70% of the fuel rods at the No. 1 reactor may be damaged and 33% at the No. 2 unit, Tepco said on March 16.

FIVE KINDS OF RADIOACTIVE MATERIALS released by damaged fuel rods were DETECTED IN THE SEA, including iodine-131, cesium-134 and cobalt. Screening food for radiation is being stepped up as Japan seeks to calm a population that eats more fish than any other nation except China. The levels found so far in milk and vegetables could cause a slight increase in the number of cancer cases. “A person would really have to continue to eat that food grown locally that’s contaminated.” People eating vegetables from Fukushima for the past 10 days will have ingested half of the natural level of a year’s worth of radiatio. “Higher numbers have been detected since we imposed shipment restrictions, so the possibility of a greater degree of risk is rising. That’s why its desirable to refrain from consumption, as well as halting shipments.”

Tokyo water ‘unfit for babies’ due to high radiation - Tokyo’s tap water is unfit for babies to drink after radiation from Japan’s quake-hit nuclear plant affected the capital’s water supply, officials said. Radioactive iodine levels in some areas were twice the recommended safe level. People in Fukushima prefecture, where the nuclear plant is located, have been told not to eat certain vegetables because of contamination worries.

The authorities are warning people living in Tokyo not to allow babies less than a year old to drink water from the tap. Japan’s health ministry has urged some residents near the plant to stop drinking tap water after samples showed elevated levels of radioactive iodine – about three times the normal level. Raised radiation levels have also been found in samples of milk and 11 green leafy vegetables, in some cases well outside the 20km exclusion zone. However, there is no suggestion that these levels of radiation pose any immediate threat to human health. The level of radioactivity found in samples of spinach would, if consumed for a year, equal the radiation received in a single CAT scan. For the milk, the figure would be much less. Experts say that safe limits for radiation in food are kept extremely low, so people should not necessarily be unduly worried by reports that they had been breached.

Hong Kong has banned a variety of food imports. The Food and Drug Administration in the US said that all milk and milk products and fresh fruits and vegetables from four Japanese prefectures – Fukushima, Ibaraki, Tochigi and Gunma – would be stopped from entering the United States.

Countries including China, Taiwan and South Korea have already been carrying out rigorous checks of Japanese food imports.

The confirmed death toll from the earthquake and tsunami has risen to 9,408, and more than 14,700 people are listed as missing. An estimated half a million people have been made homeless and some 300,000 people remain in evacuation centres or temporary housing.

Meanwhile, work was been halted at the Fukushima Daiichi plant after black smoke was seen rising from reactor 3. Radiation levels were reported to be UNUSUALLYy high before the smoke was spotted; they later fell but remain higher than in recent days. Engineers were earlier forced to halt testing of the electrical system at reactor 2 after radiation levels spiked. There is also concern about the rising temperature at reactor 1. Power cables have been connected to all six reactors, and lighting has been restored at reactor 3. The plant’s operator, Tokyo Electric Power (Tepco), had hoped to try to power up water pumps to reactor 3 on Wednesday. Tepco has said restoring power to all the reactor units could take weeks or even months. Engineers’ efforts have been frequently hampered by smoke and spikes in radiation.

On Tuesday, an International Atomic Energy Agency senior official said he could not confirm that the damaged reactors were “totally intact” or if they were cracked and leaking radiation. “We continue to see radiation coming from the site… and the question is where exactly is that coming from?”

Emergency crews using fire engines have again aimed their high-pressure water jets at a quake-hit and charred nuclear reactor in Japan, a day after a plume of dark smoke forced them to evacuate. Workers have struggled to avert a meltdown at the Fukushima plant northeast of Tokyo that has belched radiation, forcing tens of thousands to evacuate, contaminating farm produce and drinking water, and sparking wide anxiety. White steam was seen rising from four of the six reactors in the morning. Workers had been pulled back yesterday after dark smoke rose from the number three reactor unit.

Early today the Tokyo fire department engines again aimed their powerful seawater jets at the site to top up a spent fuel pool inside the unit. The focus is on the number three reactor, of special concern since it uses volatile uranium-plutonium fuel. Retopping the containment pool aims to stop it from being exposed to air where it could release large-scale radiation. Power has been partially restored to the control room of the number three unit. Previously workers had to grope around in the dark, using flashlights, without an air-conditioning system to extract elevated radiation.

Japan is a Stress Test for the Global Supply Chain - Modern global supply chains, experts say, mirror complex biological systems like the human body in many ways. They can be remarkably resilient and self-healing, yet at times quite vulnerable to some specific, seemingly small weakness — as if a tiny tear in a crucial artery were to cause someone to suffer heart failure. Day in and day out, the global flow of goods routinely adapts to all kinds of glitches and setbacks. A supply breakdown in one factory in one country, for example, is quickly replaced by added shipments from suppliers elsewhere in the network. Sometimes, the problems span whole regions and require emergency action for days or weeks. When a volcano erupted in Iceland last spring, spewing ash across northern Europe and grounding air travel, supply-chain wizards were put to a test, juggling production and shipments worldwide to keep supplies flowing. But the disaster in Japan, experts say, presents a first-of-its-kind challenge, even if much remains uncertain.

Japan is the world’s third-largest economy, and a vital supplier of parts and equipment for major industries like computers, electronics and automobiles. The worst of the damage was northeast of Tokyo, near the quake’s epicenter, though Japan’s manufacturing heartland is farther south. But greater problems will emerge if rolling electrical blackouts and transportation disruptions across the country continue for long. Throughout Japan, many plants are closed at least for days, with restart dates uncertain. Already, there are some ripple effects worldwide: for example, a General Motors truck plant in Louisiana announced on Thursday that it was shutting down temporarily for lack of Japanese-made parts. More made-in-Japan supply-chain travails are expected.

“This is going to be a huge test of global supply chains, but I don’t think it will be a mortal blow. I think that over all we’ll see how resilient and quick-learning these networks have become.” The good news for the world’s manufacturing economy is that the sectors where Japan plays a vital role are fairly mature, global industries. Consider computing and electronics. For major components, like semiconductors, production is now spread across several countries. By contrast, in the early 1990s, virtually all 486-microprocessors — the engines of the most powerful personal computers of the time — were made at a single Intel factory near Jerusalem. Japan’s importance in the semiconductor industry as a whole has receded in recent years, as more production has shifted to South Korea, Taiwan and even China. Japan accounts for less than 21 percent of total semiconductor production, down from 28 percent in 2001. Still, Japan produces a far higher share of certain important chips like the lightweight flash memory used in smartphones and tablet computers.

Apple, like all major companies these days, treats its supply-chain operations as a trade secret. But industry analysts estimate that Apple buys perhaps a third of its flash memory from Toshiba, with the rest coming mainly from South Korea. The lead time between chip orders and delivery is two months or more. A leading customer like Apple will be first in line for supplies, and it has inventories for several weeks, analysts say. So there will be little immediate impact on Apple or its customers, but even Apple will likely be hit with supply shortages of crucial components in the second quarter.

The field of buying and shipping supplies has been transformed in the last decade or two. Globalization and technology have been the driving forces. Manufacturing is outsourced around the world, with each component made in locations chosen for expertise and low costs. So today’s computer or smartphone is, figuratively, a United Nations assembly of parts. That means supply lines are longer and far more complex than in the past. The ability to manage these complex networks, experts say, has become possible because of technology – Internet communications, RFID tags and sensors attached to valued parts, and sophisticated software for tracking and orchestrating the flow of goods worldwide. That geographic and technological evolution, in theory, should make adapting to the disaster in Japan easier for corporate supply chains. Most anything can be tracked, but it takes smart technology, investment and effort to do so. And as procurement networks become more complex and supply lines grow longer — “thin strands,” as the experts call the phenomenon — the difficulty and expense of seeing deeper into the supply chain increases.

“Major companies have constant communications and deep knowledge of primary suppliers. It’s in the secondary layers of suppliers — things that are smaller, barely noticed — where the greater risk is.” Indeed, supplies of larger, more costly electronic components, like flash memory and liquid crystal displays, tend to grab the most attention. But, “there are all kinds of little specialized parts without second sources, like connectors, speakers, microphones, batteries and sensors that don’t get the love they deserve. Many are from Japan.” Big chip makers like Intel, Samsung and Toshiba typically hold inventories of silicon wafers for four to six weeks of production. “But after that, it will get tougher.”

The Japan quake, some experts say, will prompt companies to re-evaluate risk in their supply chains. Perhaps, they say, there will be a shift from focusing on reducing inventories and costs, the just-in-time model, pioneered in Japan, to one that places greater emphasis on buffering risk — a just-in-case mentality. Adding inventories and backup suppliers reduces risk by increasing the redundancy in a supply system.

Global food scare widens from Japan nuclear plant - Countries across the world have shunned Japanese food imports as radioactive steam leaked from a disaster-struck nuclear plant, straining nerves in Tokyo. The damage to the Fukushima nuclear plant from the tectonic calamity and a series of explosions has stoked global anxiety. The United States and Hong Kong have already restricted Japanese food, and France wants the European Union to do the same. Russia ordered a halt to food imports from four prefectures – Fukushima, Gunma, Ibaraki and Tochigi – near the stricken plant some 250 kilometres (155 miles) northeast of Tokyo.Moscow also quarantined a Panama-flagged cargo ship that had passed near the plant and put its 19 crew under medical supervision after detecting radiation levels three times the norm in the engine room. Australia banned produce from the area, including seaweed and seafood, milk, dairy products, fresh fruit and vegetables. It said, however, that Japanese food already on store shelves was safe, as it had shipped before the quake, and that “the risk of Australian consumers being exposed to radionuclides in food imported from Japan is negligible”. Canada implemented enhanced import controls on products from the four prefectures.

Singapore suspended imports of milk products and other foodstuffs from the same four prefectures, as well as all food products from two more – Chiba and Ehime. The city-state’s move came after officials found “radioactive contaminants” in four samples of vegetables from Japan, though the authorities stressed the radiation levels in the produce were still very low. The Philippines banned Japanese chocolate imports, and Indonesia asked that Japan certify its exported processed foods as radiation-free.

In greater Tokyo, an urban sprawl of more than 30 million people, strong aftershocks served as uncomfortable reminders that JAPAN’S CAPITAL ITSELF IS BELIEVED TO BE DECADES OVERDUE FOR A MEGA-QUAKE. The anxiety was compounded by the Tokyo Government’s revelation Wednesday that radioactive iodine in the drinking water was more than twice the level deemed safe for infants, although it remained within safe adult limits. The news triggered a run on bottled water in shops and the city’s ubiquitous vending machines, while the Tokyo government started to give families three 550-millilitre (18.5-ounce) bottles of water per infant. A measurement yesterday was in the safe zone for infants again, officials said, but this was not enough to calm all parents of young children and many bought up what bottled water they could.

Japan’s government has also halted shipments of untreated milk and vegetables from Fukushima and three adjoining prefectures, and stepped up radiation monitoring at another six, covering an area that borders Tokyo. The health ministry has detected 82,000 becquerels of radioactive caesium – 164 times the safe limit – in the green vegetable kukitachina, and elevated levels in another 10 vegetables, including cabbage and turnips. At the source of the radiation – the Fukushima plant located on the Pacific coast – white smoke was seen wafting from four of the six reactors. Fire engines again aimed high-pressure water jets at the number three reactor, a day after a plume of dark smoke there forced workers to evacuate, in a bid to avert a full meltdown that would release greater radiation. Engineers have now linked up an external electricity supply to all six reactors and are testing system components and equipment in an effort to restart the tsunami-hit cooling systems and stabilise the reactors.

Scientists at the Port and Airport Research Institute meanwhile found that the tsunami that swallowed entire towns was even bigger than first thought. In devastated Ofunato, Iwate prefecture, it topped 23 metres (76 feet).

Nuclear plant to take another month to fix. – The death toll from Japan’s worst post-war disaster topped 10,000 as the operator of a radiation-belching nuclear plant warned that work to stabilise it may take another month. Two weeks after a giant 9.0-magnitude quake struck and sent a massive tsunami crashing into the Pacific coast, wiping entire towns off the map, Japan held out little hope of finding alive another 17,500 listed as missing.

The focus of Japan’s fears remained the six-reactor Fukushima nuclear plant northeast of Tokyo, which was still emitting radioactive vapour that has made Tokyo drinking water unsafe for infants and sparked a global food scare. The European Union has joined the United States, Russia and several other countries in restricting food imports from Japan, which itself has ordered a stop to vegetable and dairy shipments from the region around the plant.

Higher radioactivity has also been detected in the ocean near the coastal power station, raising consumer fears about the safety of fish and seaweed, which are traditional food staples of the island nation. At Tokyo’s usually frantic Tsukiji fish market, the world’s biggest, demand has plummeted – partially because half-empty hotels in a nervous Tokyo have reduced orders as foreigners stay away and conferences are cancelled.

At the Fukushima power station, plant workers kept spraying seawater onto overheating reactors and fuel rod pools as a stop-gap measure to prevent a larger meltdown, while trying to rebuild the original cooling systems. The tremendous risk faced by the emergency crew was highlighted when two workers were hospitalised yesterday with radiation burns. The workers were placing cables in the basement of the number three reactor’s turbine building when they stepped into a pool of water containing iodine, caesium and cobalt 10,000 TIMES THE NORMAL LEVEL. The men, aged in their 20s and 30s, were wearing radiation suits, but not full-length boots and had ignored a warning alarm from their dosimeters, “assuming a problem with the device”. A total of 17 workers have been exposed to more than 100 millisieverts, the level at which the risk of developing cancer rises.

TEPCO admitted today it may take at least another month to achieve a cold shutdown of all reactors – when temperatures inside fall below boiling point and its cooling systems are back at atmospheric pressure. “We are still in the process of assessing the damage at the plant, so that we can’t put a deadline on when the cooling operations will work again. It may take more than a month, who knows.”

The workers’ injuries were a setback after some successes. Engineers have powered up two key control rooms as they try to rebuild the complex architecture of water pipes and electric wiring, but there were concerns of damage caused by the heat, explosions and build-up of sea salt. The emergency crews were working to restore pumps that will inject fresh water into the worst-hit one and three reactors, instead of the corrosive seawater which may damage electric lines.

Along the tsunami-ravaged coast of northern Honshu island, meanwhile, some 250,000 homeless in almost 2000 shelters continued to brave privations and a winter chill, with a degree of discipline and dignity that has impressed the world. The elderly, a large demographic in fast-greying Japan, were especially hard hit. Two thirds of victims were aged over 60.

Japan nuclear reactor core maybe breached - Japanese nuclear safety officials say they suspect that the reactor core at one unit of the troubled Fukushima Dai-ichi nuclear power plant may have been breached. That raises the possibility of more severe radioactive contamination to the environment. A spokesman for the nuclear safety agency said on Friday that “something at the reactor may have been damaged” in Unit 3 of the six-unit plant. “Our data suggest the reactor retains certain containment functions”, an implication that the damage may have occurred in the reactor’s core, but that it was limited. Officials say the damage could instead have happened in other equipment, including piping or the spent fuel pool.

High radiation detected on Japanese travellers in China – Two Japanese travellers have been hospitalised in China with “severe” radiation levels after they arrived on a commercial airliner from Tokyo. Radiation levels that “seriously exceeded limits” were detected on the two when they arrived in the eastern city of Wuxi on Wednesday.

Meanwhile China said an abnormal level of radiation was detected on a Japanese merchant vessel when it arrived at a port in eastern China. The ship belongs to a Japanese transport company and left Tokyo on March 17. The Chinese watchdog’s statement did not give further information about the exact levels of radiation, the ship crew or cargo.

VOLCANOES -

INDONESIA – 600 Near Sulawesi Volcano Evacuated. Indonesia said it has evacuated hundreds of people living near Mount Karangetang, off North Sulawesi, as the authorities issued a red alert yesterday following its eruption. Nearly 600 people live in three villages 4km from the volcano’s western peak, from which lava continues to spew as it disgorges heat clouds. ‘The process to evacuate 582 villagers has been completed. All are now at safety shelters and nobody was injured. The volcano is still in the phase of eruption. We have detected lava flow which has reached as far as 1,800m.”

An eruption at Karangetang, which forms the northern part of the remote Siau Island in North Sulawesi, killed four people last August. The Indonesian archipelago has dozens of active volcanoes and straddles major tectonic fault lines known as the ‘Ring of Fire’ between the Pacific and Indian oceans. The country’s most active volcano, Mount Merapi in central Java, caused the deaths of over 350 people in a series of violent eruptions which started late last October.

A flood of cooled volcanic lava from Indonesia’s Mount Merapi has buried 21 houses in Central Java. Wet weather over the weekend turned into a “boiling flood” as the rains hit the volcano and washed down to the village of Agromulyo. They reported no fatalities, but one resident said a family of three suffered burns.

HAWAII – Fire still burning. It began on March 5th, 2011, at 2 pm, after volcanic activity along the Kamoamoa Fissure of the East Rift of Kilauea volcano. Molten rock pools and flows led to brush fires. About 1833 acres have burned so far.

The mineral quartz could help scientists predict earthquake tremors and volcanic eruptions, says a new study. Underground crystal deposits of the stone are abundant wherever fault lines occur and indicate a weakness in the earth’s crust that is likely to lead to a geological event, scientists found. In a research that could lead to saving thousands of lives in future disasters, they believe the mineral accounts for the movements of continental plates. It includes the Asiatic plate moving under the North American plate that caused last week’s Japan megaquake. ‘Certainly, the question of why mountains occur where they do has been around since the dawn of time.’

Their findings come after they repeatedly found a link between quartz deposits and geological events that they said was ‘completely eye-popping’. The information they gathered showed that quartz minerals were a good indicator of weaknesses in the earth’s crust. The team linked the properties in rocks to Earth’s movements. Quartz contains trapped water that is released when heated under stress, allowing rocks to slide and flow in what they termed a ‘viscous cycle’.

INDONESIA – Heavy Rain Hampers Relief Efforts in N. Sulawesi. Weather across much of North Sulawesi is hampering efforts to distribute aid to residents fleeing the erupting Mount Karangetang, relief officials said on Monday. Humanitarian aid such as food and hygiene kits arrived in Sitaro district on Monday morning, but continuing heavy rains since Saturday made it difficult for aid workers to distribute it. “We have only been able to distribute aid to residents of Mini and Lehi villages. We haven’t been able to reach the people in Kinali because access to that village has been cut off.” The two bridges leading to Kinali had been heavily damaged, along with a church and one home. “The Kinali residents are currently being helped by the Indonesian Navy. We hope to be able to reach the residents with relief supplies as soon as we finish an assessment of their needs.”

The volcano was continuing to send molten lava and fast-moving clouds of superheated gas and ash, or pyroclastic flows, racing down its slopes. Karangetang began erupting just hours after the magnitude 9.0 earthquake triggered a tsunami that devastated the eastern coast of Japan. “People living around Karangetang believe that their village heads can see the signs of an impending eruption.” The residents appeared well-prepared for the eruptions. “The threat is that the lava dome and the pyroclastic flows can move as far as four kilometers to the west.” Most of the volcano’s residents live on its western slope. Heat clouds from the volcano had been reported as far as 2.5 kilometers from the volcano’s peak, near the Sense and Nanitu rivers. A pyroclastic flow in 1997 killed three people. Karangetang has erupted more than 40 times since 1675, with several smaller eruptions. Its last eruption, in August 2010, killed four people.

Could a Link Exist Between Super Moons and Erupting Volcanoes? - A rare Super Moon occurred on Saturday March 19. Scientifically termed a lunar perigee-syzygy; it is a new or full Moon (syzygy) that coincides with the Moon at its closest approach to Earth (perigee) in 18 years.

O’Meara has been a rogue scientist his entire life. On a five day observing trip to Arenal Volcano in La Fortuna, Costa Rica O’Meara’s disciplined astronomy background led him to recognize a pattern in the volcanic eruptions that correlated with lunar tides and the Moon and Sun’s gravitational pull.

In the historic records a few people have noted lunar phases when viewing volcanic eruptions, but no one has ever investigated a serious link between the Moon and volcanoes and put it to a conclusive scientific test. Whether the Moon even has any affect on volcanoes has been a point of scientific controversy for decades.

As the Moon orbits Earth, the angles between the Sun, Earth and Moon change and create Moon phases. Twice each day Earth’s ocean tides go in and out and up and down. The gravitational pull of both the Moon and the Sun cause four daily tides (two low and two high) each day at 6.25 hour intervals. If you could look back at Earth from outer space, you’d be able to see these tides bulging out on both sides of the planet. In addition, every two weeks the tides go from minimum to maximum heights when the Sun and Moon align at New Moon and Full Moon and the gravitational pull is strongest. These two big, maximum monthly tides are called fortnightly or spring tides.

Although the Moon looks small, its power is tremendous because of how close it is to Earth. The actual physical Earth is ‘pulled’ by the Moon and and bulges by as much as eight inches. The movement of underground magma and the movement of ocean tides is very similar. Magma under Earth’s fragile crust is fluid and circulating. Could the Moon pull it a few inches and force it out through a crust weakened by earthquakes? Or give it an extra big push for large-scale eruption at an active volcano? Maybe the tides affect the gases inside the molten melt and help them to expand beyond some critical level — to the point of eruption. All eruptions are driven by the expansion of gases. O’Meara believes in theory that it seems plausible.

Tsunami a real & devastating possibility on the Jersey Shore along the Atlantic Ocean. – Even a ‘doomsday scenario’ is a realistic possibility because of a volcano over 3500 miles away. “There’s a volcano in the Canary Islands called Cumbre Vieja, and if that has a landslide, trouble will begin. If the side gives way, and it slides into the ocean, it could generate a big wave that would devastate the east coast. The volcano has been there a long time, and it hasn’t happened yet, but it’s a realistic possibility.”

For almost a week, the world has watched in horror as Japan has dealt with the effects of both a magnitude 9.0 earthquake, and a large tsunami that struck shortly afterward. A tsunami can occur in any large body of water. Tsunamis can form almost anywhere under the right circumstances.

“Tsunamis form when something offsets the seafloor. It’s like it builds a step in the ocean surface, and the whole water column is lifted up, and then it clears off. Anything from an earthquake to a meteorite could generate this big wave, and cause phenomenal damage after it comes ashore.” There is no historical record of a large scale tsunami hitting the Jersey Shore, but one is still possible. Another doomsday scenario – “If a large chunk of land off Africa falls off into the Atlantic, (and it’s expected to do so in the next hundred years) it would be catastrophic to the east coast.”

“We’re not prepared at all for a tsunami. If one hit today, it would be as devastating as the tsunami that hit the Indian Ocean in December 2004. We’re not prepared, and we have a larger population. It would be absolutely catastrophic, and like nothing we’ve ever seen before.” And, the East Coast doesn’t have a complex warning system in the event of a tsunami. “Nobody was more prepared for this sort of event than Japan was, and we’re watching them struggle with the after effects. We’re not even close here. We don’t have a strong enough system, at all.”

The National Weather Service sponsors a program called TsunamiReady. To become a certified community, the city must establish a formal tsunami plan. In addition, they must hold emergency exercises like planning ways to develop and distribute warnings. Although TsunamiReady could drastically help in an emergency situation, it reports that only 83 sites in the United States were “tsunami ready” as of March 2. As for fears of an earthquake, it has been years since New Jersey has been affected by one right off their coast. A quake in 1929 hit Southern Canada. “People in Canada were killed after the resulting tsunami, and there was another way back in 1889 in Charleston, South Carolina. Residents along the coast have to purchase tsunami insurance there.”

Experts say that it would be a little naive to assume that the Earth has entered an active earthquake pattern. “Just because one hit (Japan) doesn’t mean that we’re more likely to see future quakes. “We have seen several large quakes in recent years. But earthquakes could happen at anytime, really.”

JAPAN - The monster tsunami which left the nuclear power plant on the brink of meltdown measured at least 14 metres high (46 feet). The Tokyo Electric Power Co. (TEPCO) had earlier estimated the height of the wave at 10 metres at its Fukushima No.1 plant, some 250km north-east of Tokyo. The massive 9.0-magnitude quake on March 11 triggered colossal waves along the country’s Pacific coast, crippling the plant’s cooling systems and prompting emergency operations to prevent fuel rods from melting and spewing radioactive material. “Now we estimate the height at more than 14 metres. We have found traces of the tsunami at such elevations.” The wave was 14 metres high when it passed through the plant’s parking area. A tsunami can surge to an elevation higher than its height at the time when it hits shore. The stricken plant’s twin complex, some 10km to the south, was also hit by the tsunami but received less extensive damage.

A subcontract worker at the Fukushima No.2 plantsaid that he evacuated to a hill immediately after the quake crushed an embankment and broke the arm of a crane at his plant. “There was a backwash which left the seabed clearly seen some 200 metres offshore from the beach. Then the tsunami approached all at once and surged onto the plant. The tsunami cleared high above the dyke and came rushing down to wash away one parked car after another. I was very scared.” The plants were designed to withstand earthquakes of magnitudes up to 8.0 and tsunami waves of up to 5.7 metres at the No.1 plant and 5.2 metres at the No.2.

Japan: thieves steal £250k from bank vault crippled by earthquake - Thieves took £250,000 from a bank vault left wide open by the Japanese disaster. The earthquake and tsunami crippled the bank’s security mechanisms allowing someone to walk off with 40 million yen in cash. The tsunami washed over the Shinkin Bank in Kesennuma, and police said between the force of the wave’s power and the ensuing power cuts, the vault came open. “The bank was flooded, and things were thrown all over. It was a total mess. Somebody stole the money in the midst of the chaos.” The bank told police today, 11 days after the disaster.

Japanese Tsunami Was More Than 77 Feet High At Its Peak - “A tsunami wave that hit a coastal city in Iwate Prefecture after the March 11 massive earthquake is estimated to have reached 23.6 meters in height, a government-commissioned field survey by the Port and Airport Research Institute showed Wednesday.” That’s 77 feet, 5 inches. Or, about the height of a six- or seven-story building. The city of Ofunat, was basically destroyed

It wasn’t a record, though. “The tsunami wave measured in the city of Ofunato was lower than the domestic record of 38.2 meters [125 feet. 4 inches] marked in the 1896 Meiji Sanriku Earthquake Tsunami, and 34.9 meters [114 feet, 6 inches] logged in the wake of the 2004 earthquake off the Indonesian coast of Sumatra.”

Japanese tsunami reaffirms need for mangroves – The threat of damage and destruction from tsunamis and cyclones can be minimised to a great extent if the existing mangrove forests are protected and more trees are planted along the coast. Mangrove forests not only worked as natural barriers in case of a tsunami or a cyclone but are also cheaper alternatives to the stonewalls or other man-made structures which might be effective for normal sea waves but could not withstand high tides caused by a cyclone. Japan had cultivated between 200- and 300-metre-wide coastal belts for forests which successfully buffered most of the wave energy when the tsunami hit the country. These greenbelts not only saved countless lives but will also eventually help in making recovery more efficient.

Referring to the Asian tsunami of 2004, the damage was quite less where the coasts were protected with plantations in India, Sri Lanka and Indonesia. The villages which had kept the mangrove plantations and coral reefs intact managed to survive without massive damage.

Similarly, Bangladesh planted mangrove forests and built mud dykes along the coast during the past decade after facing many cyclones over the years. Some time back when another cyclone had hit the country, it was observed that destruction due to the sea surge would have been massive had there been no mangroves and mud dykes.

The mangrove forests also work as breeding grounds for commercially important marine food species. This way not only the coastal communities involved in fishing activities were benefited but the country`s overall economy was strengthened with an increase in seafood exports. Mangroves are also one of the best carbon sinks and by planting these trees the environment would benefit.

In Pakistan, there is a need for planting more mangrove forests besides protecting the existing mangroves so that not only the sea intrusion, which also destroyed sweet subsoil water and subsequently ruined fertile agricultural land, was countered but in case of natural disasters like cyclones and tsunamis the coastal communities also suffer less. A one-mile-wide greenbelt having mangroves and other plantations should be reserved along the coast. In the existing uplift projects, the cutting of existing trees should be stopped strictly and trees be planted wherever possible.

The mangrove cover in the Indus delta region spread over 600,000 hectares in the 1950s but owing to the ruthless logging and less amount of freshwater flowing in the Indus downstream from Kotri the existing thick forest cover was only around 86,000 hectares. The floods that ravaged this country last year had wreak havoc on those areas where the tree cover was less. Had there been trees in mountains in the northern parts of the country there would have been less flash floods and there would been lesser breeches in the river dykes had the forests, which also strengthen the dykes, in the kutcha areas not been cut down ruthlessly. A tsunami hit the Pakistani coast in 1945 in which over 5,000 lives had been lost, but the loss could be many times more if such a disaster hit the coast now. Cyclones have been hitting the coast and the most recent one was Phet that had hit the Gwadar in Balochistan and Keti Bunder in Sindh.

Wind, waves getting bigger over the years? – During the past quarter-century, average wind speeds have increased over the world’s oceans, as have wave heights, generating rougher seas, according to an Australian-led study published online.

Since faster winds cause more evaporation, the increase could lead to more water vapor in the air, compounding any increase from global warming and providing added moisture for rainfall.

Researchers report that over a 23-year period, average wind speed over the oceans rose by 0.25 per cent per year. The proportion of increase in wave height was less than for wind speed, the researchers noted, while the increase for extreme winds was more than for average winds. The researchers said the higher winds are not necessarily the result of global warming. Evaporation rises with higher wind speeds, so the result would be more moisture in the air even without global warming. And the warming shown in many studies also would increase evaporation.

Just two years ago, a study of wind speeds over land showed a decrease, rather than the increase this team found in its measurements from satellites and buoys. “I don’t think these results provide a clear contradiction to our findings of declining wind speeds over land, since measurements are made in different environments.” The day-to-night changes in temperature are different over land than over water and the boundary layer, the portion of the atmosphere that most closely interacts with the surface, generally is thicker over land than water.

MYSTERY BOOMS / SKYQUAKES -

FLORIDA - 3/18/11 – Mysterious rumbling mimics earthquake. Whatever gave some Flagler County residents a rumble Friday morning wasn’t an earthquake — at least not one recorded on any instruments by scientists. About a dozen people reported trembling and rumblings in Flagler County, from The Hammock stretching across Palm Coast to Bunnell. . The phone started ringing about 9:40 a.m. with reports of rumbling along with vibrating windows and garage doors. It may have been a military jet breaking the sound barrier after dropping a bomb at the Pinecastle Range Complex in the Ocala National Forest. “Sometimes, they get a little overzealous on their throttle and they break the sound barrier when they are not supposed to.” As for the bombing theory, the U.S. Navy denies it initiated any action Friday in the Ocala National Forest. No bombs were being dropped at the Navy’s range in the forest.

Whatever it was will likely remain a mystery, a seismic enigma. It was not an earthquake said a geophysicist with the National Earthquake Information Center at the U.S. Geological Survey. “We didn’t record anything. You really don’t get earthquakes in that part of Florida at all. We didn’t record anything at all for this.”

Before a quake is written off completely, however, consider the USGS only has one seismometer in Florida, near Disney World. So another USGS geophysicist raised the possibility of a quake big enough to rouse some Flagler residents, but too small to register on the seismometer somewhere near Disney. “It’s possible there was a small quake, very localized and it’s possible our seismometers didn’t detect it. People felt something. It might have been an earthquake. It might have been an explosion from the military.”

Friday was not the first time Flagler County residents have reported some shaking. More than a year ago, some condominium residents in northeast Flagler County reported “light rumblings and some little pops,” which turned out to be an offshore earthquake. If it was an earthquake, it was very rare for Florida. Usually, the seismic activity causing a quake occurs outside Florida, but its vibration is felt in the state. The only place earthquakes are usually felt in Florida is in the Panhandle near the Alabama border.. That’s because the quakes happen in Alabama and are felt in Florida. There is anecdotal evidence of an earthquake in Deltona in 1973 but it was not recorded by scientific instruments. On Sept. 10, 2006, a 5.9 temblor in the Gulf of Mexico was felt 400 miles to the east in Tampa.

TROPICAL STORMS -

Some Vanuatu cyclone victims say they’re still to receive food supplies two months later. – There are reports more than two thousand people on the east of Tanna island in the southern province of Vanuatu are still waiting for food supplies two months after being hit by a damaging cyclone. Local chiefs say food gardens were badly affected by Cyclones Vania and Atu but they haven’t received food from the government, despite supplies being sent to the wider region. They say their areas were the most affected by the cyclones, last year’s El Nino and the increase in activity of the Yasur volcano, and they deserve to get aid ahead of other areas in Tafea Province. The National Disaster Management Office admits it didn’t have enough rice when it began distributing supplies around Tafea last month. The office says it’d been given the wrong information after a survey of the damage caused by the cyclones.

New Cyclone Belt May Be Forming Off Brazil - An area of disturbed weather swirling about 300 miles east of Rio de Janeiro was dubbed Subtropical Storm Ariani by the Brazilian Navy. The U.S. National Hurricane Center said Arani was far less organized that Cyclone Catarina, which developed in the South Atlantic almost exactly seven years ago, in March 2004. Tropical or subtropical storms are VERY RARE in the region. Records indicate that three have formed since 2004, and the storms were unheard of before that time. Catarina destroyed about 1,500 homes, damaging around 40,000 others when it made an unprecedented landfall in southern Brazil. Tropical Storm Anita formed on March 12 last year far off the Brazilian coast. All three storms developed at the same point in March, almost to the day, in a possible indication that climate change is creating another tropical cyclone belt during late summer off Brazil’s South Atlantic coast.

NASA infrared satellite imagery shows Cyclone Cherono dwindling - Three days of NASA infrared satellite imagery provides a clear picture to forecasters of the effect wind shear has had on former Cyclone Cherono. Wind shear increased near Cyclone Cherono this weekend and weakened it down to a remnant low pressure area in the Southern Indian Ocean. March 21, Cherono’s remnants were moving away from Mauritius and still causing ocean swells. Infrared imagery on March 19 at 09:35 UTC showed a concentrated center of circulation with a band of thunderstorms stretching from southwest to northwest outside the center of Cherono’s circulation. At that time Cherono was still a tropical storm. On March 20 at 21:11 UTC, imagery revealed that those bands of thunderstorms around Cherono had disappeared as a result of the increased wind shear. On Sunday, March 20, the strongest convection (rapidly rising air that forms the thunderstorms that power a tropical cyclone) was located to the north of the center of circulation. By March 21 at 09:17 UTC, infrared imagery showed that Cherono had become asymmetric from wind shear. When a tropical cyclone becomes asymmetric it weakens.

The Mauritius Meteorological Service warns that as the remnant low pressure area formerly known as Cyclone Cherono continues to move away. As a result, rough surf and heavy ocean swells can be expected and residents are being warned not to go in the ocean, especially beyond reef areas.

The last warning on Cherono from the Joint Typhoon Warning Center came on Saturday, March 19, when Cherono was still a Tropical Storm with maximum sustained winds near 40 mph (35 knots/ 64 kmh). at that time it was located about 595 miles east of La Reunion Island near 19.7 South and 65.0 East, and was moving west-southwest near 9 mph (8 knots/ 14 kmh). Over this past weekend, vertical wind shear increased battering the structure of Cyclone Cherono and weakening the circulation. Now the remnant low continues to move away from Mauritius and is expected to dissipate over the next day or two.

Cyclone alert for Lau, Lomaiviti and Kadavu - A cyclone alert is now in force for the Lau and Lomaiviti group as well as Kadavu. Damaging gale force winds may be experienced in these islands as a tropical depression to the south of Fiji gains strength. According to the weather office, the depression is building and could turn into a cyclone by today. “There was a tropical depression located about 200km to the North East of Suva and it is currently moving towards the South West. By all likelihoods, it will pass very closely or over the southern parts of the Lau Group in the next 24 to 48 hours. At this stage there is an alert particularly for Lau, Lomaiviti and Kadavu for winds to possibly turn into gale force in the next 24 to 48 hours.” While Viti Levu and Vanua Levu are not in the current path of the depression, heavy rains will be experienced that may cause flooding of low lying areas.

High Risk For Cyclone Development North Of New Zealand – Weather models used by WeatherWatch.co.nz are now predicting what looks to be a tropical cyclone in the coming days north east of New Zealand – and it may affect them in the first half of next week. A low has formed, called Tropical Depression 13F, and forecasters have high confidence that this will become Tropical Cyclone Bune and the Fiji Meteorological Service agrees, saying they have “moderate to high” confidence of cyclone development within 48 hours.

Despite the low being north east of New Zealand it is tracking south west towards them and some long range models show it deepening rapidly as it moves towards them on Monday and Tuesday, possibly bringing strong winds to East Cape, Gisborne, eastern Bay of Plenty and Hawkes Bay. Going by the current maps heavy rain would likely remain mostly offshore.

Last month ex-tropical cyclone Atu passed east of New Zealand on the same week as the Christchurch earthquake. The ex-cyclone was well offshore but forecasters warned the public to stay away from east coast beaches due to dangerous rips. That Friday 11 students were rescued from a dangerous rip south of Napier lucky to be alive. “Traditionally in New Zealand the news headlines tend to be around cyclones hitting us – but in reality the offshore ones can pose the same risk to life due to dangerous rips and waves. These storms don’t need to affect our weather to make our beaches deadly”.

In America hurricanes that are sometimes over 1000kms off the coastline can make headline news as forecasters warn of dangerous seas in an effort to avoid drownings. “This likely developing cyclone may well follow Atu’s path and pass to the east of New Zealand, with some models picking it may track even closer to shore. it could bring dangerous seas for much of next week along the east coast of the North Island”.

Cyclone Bune Intensifying - As predicted by WeatherWatch.co.nz yesterday, the Fiji Meteorological Service has today revised their predictions for Cyclone Bune saying the storm will reach category 3 status tonight – that means winds will be sustained at hurricane force, or 120km/h with gusts to 150km/h.

The central air pressure is now 976hPa down from 990hPa this time yesterday.

WeatherWatch.co.nz made the early call yesterday on the category status based on reliable computer models, favourable sea surface temperatures and the right atmospheric conditions.

Bune – which is pronounced “mm-boo-nay” – is currently drifting very slowly, at walking speed, in a south easterly direction. It’s likely to become a strong category 3 cyclone over the weekend with the possibility it may even briefly touch category 4 status for a time out over the open waters and well away from land. By the time Bune reaches nearer to New Zealand midway through next week it is likely to have lost its technical tropical cyclone status and category levels. That, however, doesn’t mean the storm will be any less ferocious. Severe gales will create huge seas off East Cape by mid next week and that will create dangerous rips and surf right along the eastern coastline of the North Island, in particular around East Cape, Gisborne, Hawkes Bay and Wairarapa.

The path of Bune takes it in a rough S shape tracking south east this afternoon, southerly tonight then south westerly overnight. By the end of Sunday the Fiji Meteorological Service says Bune will track back southerly again then south easterly. It should be tracking in a south east direction when it passes 300 to 600kms east of East Cape next Wednesday.

The Joint Typhoon Warning Centre expects Bune to become a strong category 3 storm by the weekend with winds averaging almost 160km/h and gusting close to 200km/h out at sea. It is highly unlikely that Bune will make a direct hit on New Zealand but it may bring severe weather to East Cape and Gisborne around Wednesday next week in the form of gales and heavy rain. Rough beach conditions next week remain the biggest risk to New Zealanders.

HEAVY RAINS / FLOODING / LANDSLIDES / UNUSUAL & OUT-OF-SEASON WEATHER -

INDONESIA – Storm chaos reignites calls for relocation of the capital. Extreme weather in the capital saw hail falling from the sky, trees uprooted, widespread surface flooding and damage to the exclusive Senayan City in South Jakarta.

AUSTRALIA – Sixteen children and their carers are being rescued from a pre-school threatened by rising floodwaters as heavy rains saturate the Illawarra region, shutting highways and suspending trains. Six separate rescue attempts are underway in the region, with Albion Park getting 63mm of rain in the hour to 1pm (AEDT). More than 155mm of rain fell on Albion Park this morning, prompting localised flash flooding across the area. The Bureau of Meteorology has issued a severe weather warning for flash flooding on the south coast, Riverina, Illawarra, South West Slopes, Snowy Mountains and Southern Tablelands. The wild weather has disrupted public transport, with flooding causing trains to be suspended between Dapto and Kiama on the south coast. Rain has closed the Princes Highway in both directions. The Illawarra Highway is also closed in both directions between the Princes Highway and Tongarra Rd and motorists being urged to delay their journey in this area until the rain eases and flood waters recede.

INDONESIA - West Jakarta agency prepares for coming extreme weather. The West Jakarta Park Agency is taking note of trees that are susceptible to blowing over in high winds, following a report that Jakarta could face extreme weather over the next few weeks. There were several areas in Jakarta that had trees that were in danger of falling. “Three streets have large trees and some that are older than five years on their sidewalks.” The agency had also prepared teams to monitor the condition of thousands of trees on West Jakarta’s streets. At least nine trees were uprooted by strong winds and heavy rains in West Jakarta between January and mid March this year. Last year, 32 trees fell during extreme weather.

FOOD SUPPLY-

HUNGARY - fruit, vegetable harvest plunges because of bad weather. Hungarian fruit and vegetable growers harvested a little less than 2million tonnes of produce last year, well under the 2.5-2.6 million average because of extreme weather conditions.

EXTREME HEAT / WILDFIRES / DROUGHT / CLIMATE CHANGE-

COLORADO – A wind-whipped wildfire forced the evacuation of 9500 homes southeast of Denver on Thursday just as firefighters were gaining the upper hand on a separate blaze that has burned stubbornly for five days.

HAWAII – Fight continues to spare rain forest from Big Island wild fire. National Park Service firefighters have spent the week trying to preventthe wild fire ignited by Kilauea Volcano from spreading through a protectedrain forest that is inhabited by endangered Hawaiian plants and animals.

HEAVY SNOW / EXTREME COLD

Record Snowy Winter Means More U.S. Midwest Flooding On The Way – Along With Rising Wheat Prices. All the snow the Midwest has received this year (which is consistent with other observed climatic changes) means that the region is being set up for the same devastating floods as 2009 and 2008. North Dakota, South Dakota and Minnesota all got 3 feet more snow this year than normal, with nearly 2 feet remaining on the ground now. North Dakota is the nation’s larger grower of wheat. Flooding means delays in planting, which in turn means output may drop and prices rise. Currently wheat futures at the Chicago Board of Trade are 43% higher than this time last year. Almost half the U.S. has an above-average risk of flooding through April, with areas of North Dakota, South Dakota and Minnesota among the regions with the highest threat. Eastern South Dakota may experience “moderate to major flooding” next week as rising temperatures melt snow.

We are also experiencing spring creep, where the warmer than average temperatures are shortening the length of winter. For instance, we’re now seeing spring runoff in the mountains in the western US starting one to three weeks earlier than 60 years ago.

Weather pattern drops 4 major storms on Wisconsin.area – A REPEATING weather cycle set up last fall and has continued ever since. Each cycle lasts 45-50 days and has been separated by a major storm. The first storm hit on October 26th and 27th packing wind gusts more than 50 mph. The peak gust in Green Bay hit 52 mph with a gust of 72 mph in Madison. The storm bottomed out at a pressure of 955 millibars in northern Minnesota. Pressure that low is equivalent to a category 3 hurricane. It was ONE OF THE STRONGEST NON-TROPICAL STORMS ON RECORD in the U.S.

Forty-five days later Blizzard Aiden hit Northeast Wisconsin on December 11th and 12th. The storm produced 11 inches of snow and white-out conditions. Green Bay’s peak wind gust reached 53 mph.

Forty-nine days passed and the next major storm hit the state. From January 31 through February 2, Winter Storm Connor dropped more than 20 inches of snow on Chicago and Racine. Green Bay was on the northern extent of the storm and only received 4.7 inches.

After another forty-seven days the most significant storm all season slammed into the area. Winter Storm Francesca hit Tuesday and Wednesday producing 17.8 inches of wet heavy snow in Green Bay. It was the third biggest storm on record.

Now the question is, will the pattern continue? Research shows this cycle can last into early summer. Their next major storm is set to hit between May 7th and 12th. This time snow shouldn’t be an issue and a significant severe weather outbreak is more likely.

SPACE NEWS-

Today, March 20th, is the date of the vernal equinox. At 7:21 pm EDT (2321 UT), the sun crosses the equator heading north. This marks the start of spring in the Northern Hemisphere and autumn in the Southern Hemisphere. Happy Equinox!

ICONIC ERUPTION: A huge filament of magnetism and hot plasma blasted off the sun’s southwestern limb on March 19th around 1200 UT. The eruption was not Earth-directed, but it did attract plenty of attention on our planet. Many amateur astronomers in Europe witnessed the blast and said it was THE BIGGEST ONE THEY’D EVER SEEN. This event continues the recent trend of increasing solar activity, and shows anew that Solar Cycle 24 is gaining steam after a long period of relative quiet.

[An earth-directed blast around the equinox is the most dangerous time for the power grid and satellites. We got lucky - this time. On March 7, the fastest Coronal Mass Ejection in five years had a substantial earth directed component. On March 10, the WEAK blow hit the earth head on. The earth's magnetic field reverberated for 24 hours and on March 11 Japan experienced their 9.0 quake and resulting tsunami.]

A solar wind stream flowing from a minor coronal hole could reach Earth on or about March 23rd.

HERE COMES TROUBLE? A big sunspot is emerging over the sun’s southeastern limb, and it is crackling with activity. NASA’s Solar Dynamics Observatory recorded a surge of EXTREME ultraviolet radiation from the sunspot’s magnetic canopy on March 21st. This appears to be the return of old sunspot 1165, last seen in early March when it formed on the sun’s southwestern limb. Since then it has been transiting the far side of the sun, apparently growing in size and restlessness. The potential for trouble will become more clear in the hours ahead as the active region emerges in full.

HEALTH THREATS -

Illness outbreaks spur cantaloupe, bologna recalls - Foodborne illness investigations in several states have prompted two product recalls, involving cantaloupe suspected as the cause of Salmonella infections and Lebanon bologna that may have ties to Escherichia coli O157:H7 illnesses.

Del Monte Fresh, based in Coral Gables, Fla., recalled 4,992 cartons of cantaloupes that were grown on and shipped from its farm in Asuncion Mita, Guatemala. The company said it recalled the products after an FDA notification of an investigation into 12 Salmonella enterica serotype Panama illnesses. The cantaloupe was distributed through warehouse clubs in seven western states: Alaska, California, Colorado, Idaho, Montana, Oregon, and Washington. In 2008 a Salmonella Panama outbreak in the Netherlands sickened 33 people. Salmonella Panama is a RARE serotype that has been isolated from many foods, animals, and water. The pathogen usually causes gastroenteritis but is in a group of subtypes that have an increased likelihood of causing complications such as bacteremia and meningitis.

The focus of the bologna recall is a product made by Palmyra Bologna Co. of Palmyra, Pennsylvania. It applies to 23,000 pounds of bologna that was produced in December 2010 and sent to distribution centers in California, Colorado, Maryland, New York, and Pennsylvania. The centers distributed it to retail stores. Lebanon bologna is a fermented, semi-dry beef sausage that looks similar to salami. The products, which carry the Seltzer’s Beef Lebanon Bologna brand, were packaged for consumers and retailers.

RECALLS & ALERTS:

-World Variety Produce, Inc. of Los Angeles, CA is recalling Serrano Peppers, because they have the potential to be contaminated with Salmonella.

The Great Tribulation – Truths & Falsehoods

By Johanna

We are in the midst of the tribulation and even though some don’t want to believe it, we were given the warning long ago in the Word. This warning is to tell us that the time is near and to repair and guard our hearts in preparation for eternal life. This is a warning from the love that Father has for Her children.

“But know this: difficult times will come in the last days. For people will be lovers of self, lovers of money, boastful, proud , blasphemers, disobedient to parents, ungrateful, , unholy, unloving, irreconcilable, slanderers, without self-control, brutal, without love for what is good, traitors reckless, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, holding to the form of religion but denying it’s power, Avoid these people!” 2 Timothy 3:1-5

Does it not seem coincidental to you that these things have been prophesied are the exact same signs we are witness to today? That the US Dollar is nearly valueless? That oil prices surge? That layoffs and unemployment are at unprecedented highs? That food, electricity and water are becoming more and more scarce? That Natural Disasters continue to impact not only many lives, but also the economies of many countries – each affecting other countries around the world? That prayer and all signs of Christianity are being forced from public view? That the unnatural marriage between gay men and women socially acceptable. That many have come to the forefront proclaiming to be Messiahs? That Organized Religion around the world is receiving much scrutiny and bad press?

2 Peter 2:3-4 First, be aware of this: scoffers will come in the last days to scoff. following their own lusts, saying, “Where is the promise of His coming? For ever since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they have been since the beginning of creation.”

There are a lot of man-made religions that believe that Christ has already returned and that biblical prophecies have already happened when in fact they haven’t. Luke 21:25 says [The Coming of the Son of Man] “Then there will be signs in the sun, moon, and stars; and there will be anguish on the earth among nations bewildered by the roaring sea and waves.”

The Christian preterist believe that the tribulation took place in the past when Roman legions destroyed Jerusalem and its temple in 70 AD, and that it affected the Jewish people rather than all mankind. Does that sound right to you? The Christian preterist views on the tribulation is a falsehood. Have you seen signs that the sun is changing? How about the moon and stars? What is the first thing that comes to mind when you read “nations bewildered by the roaring sea and waves?” The first thing that comes to mind for me is all the hurricanes, monsoons and typhoon’s that has been causing lots of deaths and costing lots of money to clean up.

Luke 21:11 There will be violent earthquakes, and famines and plagues in various places, and there will be terrifying sights and great signs from heaven.

In part, this is what’s happening during this tribulation period. Father is gradually reducing the people to reveal what is just ahead for all of mankind if they do not repent and seek Her and Christ in Truth. As the weather and other natural phenomena, as well as insect problems worsen, note that even the news media reporters will be puzzled at what’s coming upon this planet. They will do so by the looks upon their faces and the comments they make in puzzlement of continuous terrors and plagues like those of ancient Egypt. The worst is still ahead. Eventually, the entire planet will be made to know all comes from Father’s anger.

Isaiah 13:3-4 3 I have commanded My chosen ones; I have also called My warriors, who exult in My triumph, to execute My wrath. Listen, a tumult on the mountains, like that of a mighty people! Listen, an uproar among the kingdoms, like nations being gathered together! The LORD of Hosts is mobilizing an army for war.

At this time, people are experiencing great trouble and are suffering from the bowls of wrath that are given as a sign that the Great Tribulation has arrived. Read Revelation. There things occur but the masses are not repentant. Father is revealing Her great power over nature and Her intervention into world governments affairs, but only those that are perceptive are aware of what’s happening. Each move on the chess board in the tribulation period is designed to fulfill the prophecies Father inspired to the writers of the Word long ago.

Jehovah’s Witnesses believe that disfellowshipped Jehovah’s Witnesses, Jews, Muslims, most Christians, and followers of other religions will be exterminated. The WTS teaches that only active adults in good standing of the Jehovah’s Witnesses will survive the killing fields. The fate of children and of mentally disadvantaged adults will be up to God. They also believe that the rapture has already happened in an invisible form during 1918-9. There will be no Christians elevated to meet Jesus in the sky at the time of the world’s end.

Why would the Jehovah’s Witnesses be the only ones that won’t be exterminated? What about all the other people who love, worship, has faith in and follows Father’s will in all things. What about the faithful followers of Christ Jesus? The Great Tribulation has begun and Armageddon looms in the very near future. There are a total of TWO things that you need in order to obtain Eternal Life and Man-Made Religion is not one of them. (1) An Acceptance of Christ as Lord and Savior. (2) A Good Heart Condition.

Luke 6:45 “A good man produces good out of the good storeroom of his heart. An evil man produces evil out of the evil storeroom, for his mouth speaks from the overflow of the heart.”

Most people see the present day bowls of anger being poured out in the great tribulation but deny that it comes from Father. They look to mankind for the answer and believe that it’s merely a change in weather patterns they’ve created by altering this planets climate. In truth, they have helped to bring forth their own destruction by carbon emissions and other detrimental acts against the nature of his planet, but Father intends that they know the bowls of anger comes from Her throne. In this, Father will reveal that the sun is going to play a major role in cleansing this planet. This will soon become evident.

John 3:36 “The one who believes in the Son has eternal life, but the one who refuses to believe in the Son will not see life; instead, the wrath of God remains on him.”

In addition to preparing yourselves for the Great Tribulation, now is your last chance to make things right with God. Do not believe the falsehoods of Man-Made religious sects out there who preach that you must be baptized in order to receive salvation and that Once Saved is Always Saved or the falsehood of the Trinity which denies Christ of his true glory. They do not represent truth. The lying false shepherds out there who have led people away from the truth and into darkness will be dealt with personally and according to God’s will. It is only through endurance, a belief and acceptance of Christ as our Savior and a Good Heart Condition that we will obtain Eternal Life.

Revelation 7:3 “Don’t harm the earth or the sea or the trees until we seal the slaves of our God on their foreheads.”

Keep count of how many more are perishing by God’s hand, and those dying from Satan’s hand in causing violence throughout this planet, just as he did before the global flood. As time moves on the numbers God executes will be evident by those that are soon to perish by the emptying of more wrath from the bowls. The destruction IS coming from Father. It is a final warning during the tribulation period before the door closes and the cup of wrath is administered.

1 Peter 4:7 Now the end of all things is near; therefore, be clearheaded and disciplined for prayer.

If you believe that it is only nature, only “global warming” that is bringing devastation, then you need also to understand who nature is a part of – God – and who uses it to bring forth Her will – Her holy angels. The bowls of wrath represent nature at its deadliest. The cup of wrath represents execution by holy angelic warriors.

We have been warned it would come and we have been warned what will happen if we fail to heed Her warning. It is not Her wish that Her children should perish but a balancing of the scales must take place. Her name must be vindicated before all of creation. Heed Her warning. Turn to Her with a humble heart and acceptance of Christ Jesus as your savior. It is the only way to escape God’s wrath.

Hinduism believes in the repetitious Transmigration of the Soul. This is the transfer of one’s soul after death into another body. This produces a continuing cycle of birth, life, death and rebirth through their many lifetimes. The Hindus don’t believe in the Great Tribulation. Once we pass over we don’t go into another body. Birth, life, death and rebirth isn’t a continuing cycle according to the bible.

2 Peter 1:20-21 First of all, you should know this: no prophecy of Scripture comes from one’s own interpretation, because no prophecy ever came by the will of man, instead, moved by the Holy Spirit, men spoke from God.

Withholding The Warning Message Of Judgment

By Deborah

After the Japan earthquake and tsunami, there were reports of citizens returning to their spiritual traditions. Most Japanese practice a combination of Buddhism and Shito.

According to Buddhist scholar Matteo Pistono, “It is a complete error to read that our karma interacts with natural phenomena. From a Buddhist perspective, one’s personal karma is not affected by weather or ‘acts of God’. There is no divine retribution in Buddhism,” he said. “In Buddhism, there is no idea of sin, no punishing God.We reap what we sow. No outside force can affect that.”

This is what Satan wants people to think. That God will not punish the disobedient and disloyal. We see it not only in Buddhism, but also Christianity. Many Christian Pastors focus only on the message of salvation because it keeps the pews filled and the coffers overflowing. But it is a lie and those that do not warn of the judgment will have blood on their hands in the days to come.

Acts 20:26-27 “Therefore I testify to you this day that I am innocent of everyone’s blood, for I did not shrink back from declaring to you the whole plan of God.”

The whole plan of God. Not just salvation, but judgment and wrath also.

Ezekiel 3:17-18 17 “Son of man, I have made you a watchman over the house of Israel. When you hear a word from My mouth, give them a warning from Me. 18 If I say to the wicked person: You will surely die, but you do not warn him—you don’t speak out to warn him about his wicked way in order to save his life—that wicked person will die for his iniquity. Yet I will hold you responsible for his blood.

Christ certainly did not shy away from giving the judgment message.

John 5:24 [ Life and Judgment ] ” I assure you: Anyone who hears My word and believes Him who sent Me has eternal life and will not come under judgment but has passed from death to life.

We are on the fifth bowl of wrath. The fifth month is significant in that the offer from Yahweh to accept world government surrender expires. There isn’t much time left. This ministry will continue to warn of the coming judgment until the appointed time.

Hebrews 10:29  How much worse punishment, do you think one will deserve who has trampled on the Son of God, regarded as profane the blood of the covenant by which he was sanctified, and insulted the Spirit of grace?

May our glorious God’s will be done. Amen.

We would like to announce the arrival of Book Two, the continuation of Chosen: End Times Truths Revealed.

Book Two starts where the first book left off and includes accounts from ministers Regina, Johanna, Deborah, and Elisha describing their individual journeys and experiences in their service to Yahweh and Christ over the past several years in autobiographical form.

It is available in .pdf form for free via www.chosen.weebly.com and will be updated monthly.

The Journey Continues

Below is a sneak-peek of each of the books included in Chosen, Book Two

Regina

There are many days in which I feel as though I must stop and focus and just try to get through the next 24 hours, some days even just the next hour, and then that day passes and the next arrives and passes, and arrives until all of a sudden a year has passed, and then two and four and now five. It’s odd how time can seem to pass so slowly and quickly at the same time. Many of these days, the good and the not-so-good, I will recount here and many have receded to the deeper recesses of my mind but what I’m able to remember, I share with you here honestly and openly…
Johanna

On October 2nd or 3rd of 2005, I was on this website were there were camera’s placed through out peoples homes who claimed that they were being haunted. I have always liked supernatural things. I believed in ghost, angels and demons. I started talking to this woman and asked her how she see’s the things that she does. I also told her that I believed in spirit guides. She told me that she couldn’t help me with the guides but that she knew of a website where I could find some answers. She sent me the link to a forum by the name of “Beyond This World”. After looking at a few things and noticing that they had psychic exercises I decided to sign up to become a member…

Deborah

Word came to us toward the end of May 2010 that we were to begin documenting our experiences ending where Chosen left off. Each Minister is to produce a “book” of our own that will be incorporated into Chosen. Its a little daunting to say the least. I have not been journaling as Regina has been (it isn’t something I naturally do). Also, I actually do not have a very good memory. But I trust that those things that Father wishes us to recall we will. We have been guided by Michael to read the book of ACTS to guide us. It seems to focus on events that show times of strong guidance from/interactions with Holy Spirit…

Elisha

In 2006, I was able to reconnect with a long time friend. I found out she had co-authored a book. Considering how we had grown up together I was interested in the fact that she had written one and wanted to read it myself. She, Regina, sent me the book and some more details about it. I found out it was a lot to take in and did so in baby steps with much prayer and guidance from Father. I was blessed to freely ask any question of Regina and felt comfortable in doing so. I read the book with an open mind and while some of it confirmed my deepest suspicions other information provided was such an eye-opener…

1/17/11 The Statue of Liberty

Joe: Brad Meltzer’s team was on track on the true meaning behind whom the Statue of Liberty represented, and then like the rest of this world whom Satan has attached blinders to, they lost the truth by obscurity in the belief that the betrayer whom was a bearer of light (i.e., Lucifer) could not be the one whom the statue was modeled after.

Satan’s inspiration of the God-like statue in a prominent position in representing his child that mirrors his own rebellion from the Crown of Yahweh, and his lighting his own path with a torch to guide his way through the dankness he chose outside of Yahweh’s enlightenment, and by forming a foundation or fundamental way that is in direct contrast to “the Way” he was previously enlightened to, reveals Satan’s guidance to mankind. In leading his children of mankind to remain in a liberalized state from the Creator, in the New York harbor stands the PROUD symbol of Dawn Lucifer Satan the Devil’s falsely lighted way that ever more leads mankind farther away from the True Light that promises the only harmonious answer for all of creation.

‎”Statue of Liberty National Monument (U.S. National Park Service)

Located in New York Harbor, the Statue of Liberty was a gift of international friendship from the people of France to the people of the United States.”

The symbolism: Liberty …from Yahweh’s Rule was a gift from Satan to Mankind. France’s friendship also symbolizes the friendship Satan and his demons feel towards their adopted human family. The statue represents the lighted way that is a beacon intended for other nations to follow the path of, that being the United States. And this children is why Satan will eventually fulfill prophecy in forming his one world government. It is not because Yahweh will force it, but is because this has been Satan’s intention from the beginning of his own rebellion. His problem over the past 6,000 years has mirrored Yahweh’s own problem in dealing with rebellious factions. Satan has his kingdom, but it has yet to come in line with the model (the United States) he seeks as his foundation for all of mankind. And this is why Yahweh has taken a hand in causing its downfall. Satan will have his short rule under one world power, but it will not be his preferred choice.He must change course and take what crumb of bread Yahweh gives him. When that power also proves futile, Satan will be dethroned by force from his position on the planet.

The copper and other elements of the statue are symbolic to Yahweh.

Ezekiel 22:18 “Son of man, the house of Israel has become dross to Me. All of them are copper, tin, iron, and lead inside the furnace; they are the dross of silver.”Israel (Yahweh’s female name) found Her house (creation) filled with dross:

Dictionary:

“dross >noun 1 rubbish. 2 scum on the surface of molten metal.

-ORIGIN Old English.”

In the past, you have been taught that the demons are considered as mere waste, and those killed are dumped in the garbage pile of the Orange Plane. That action represents the garbage dump. It, like the present earth, is an unclean place. The coming wrath will cleanse the earth. The Orange Plane will eventually be consumed by fire.

Leviticus 14:41 “He is to have the inside of the house completely scraped, and the plaster that is scraped off must be dumped in an unclean place outside the city.” (Outside Heaven.)

Isaiah 14:19 “But you are thrown out without a grave, like a worthless branch, covered by those slain with the sword and dumped into a rocky pit like a trampled corpse.”

There are no graves in Heaven. “thrown out” into the darkness of eternity after being thrown into the rocky pit of the Orange Plane. Satan’s human children will join him in eternal death outside of Yahweh in the eternal pit of darkness.

Daniel 3:29 “Therefore I issue a decree that anyone of any people, nation, or language who says anything offensive against the God of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego will be torn limb from limb and his house made a garbage dump. For there is no other god who is able to deliver like this.”

The earth is becoming a garbage dump, just like the Orange Plane. It is defiled and spoiled. No longer a planet to be applauded by the angelic hosts of Heaven. The prized jewel has faded from its original glory.

Rust and degradation are not part of the spirit ream, but they exist in the fleshly realm. Yahweh seeks a solution:

Ezekiel 24:11 “Set the empty pot on its coals so that it becomes hot and its copper glows. Then its impurity will melt inside it; its rust will be consumed.”

Ezekiel 22:20 ‘Just as one gathers silver, copper, iron, lead, and tin into the furnace to blow fire on them and melt them, so I will gather [you] in My anger and wrath, put you [inside], and melt you.”

Joe: Children, now you will come to understand why they are called Alpha’s Menacing Lance. They work in conjunction with the Cherubs and the LOZ.

Job 39:23 “A quiver rattles at his side, along with a flashing spear and a lance.”

Jeremiah 46:4 “Harness the horses; mount the steeds; take your positions with helmets on! Polish the lances; put on armor!”

1/23/11 Revelation 12:1 “[ The Woman, the Child, and the Dragon ]

Joe: Revelation 12:1 “[ The Woman, the Child, and the Dragon ] A great sign appeared in heaven: a woman clothed with the sun, with the moon under her feet, and a crown of 12 stars on her head.” Describing our Mother Yahweh in the “great sign.”

The signs of the “3″ are cast throughout the visible creation as a record for all to view. We need only look and see what appears right in front of each one of us.

You’re welcome child. More is written within the record, but the theme remains the same. Yahweh, also named Israel = IS REAL, because without Her, none of us would be within Her reality of existence. She is the only real thing in our existence. Without Her we are as the grass of the field that withers and dies away. We must be nurtured by the LIFE-GIVER and SUSTAINABLY of Her power..

Without being marked:

Cordelia: Hi Joe, you know how sometimes you’re not sure if it’s a good time to talk to someone? I never felt that way when I pray to Mother Yahweh! Nobody else comes close. Isn’t it too amazing that the Life-giver is mindful to a speck of dust? Do you still feel that way?

Joe: Yes child, the feeling never diminishes.

Quake upgraded - JAPAN’S Meteorological Agency says it has upgraded the magnitude of Friday’s catastrophic earthquake to 9.0.

The quake was already the biggest to hit Japan since record-keeping began in the late 1800s and one of the biggest ever recorded in the world. The US Geological Survey has measured the quake at magnitude 8.9, and that number remained unchanged today.

Quake moved Japan coast 8 feet, shifted Earth’s axis - The powerful earthquake that unleashed a devastating tsunami Friday appears to have moved the main island of Japan by 8 feet (2.4 meters). Reports from the National Institute of Geophysics and Volcanology in Italy estimated the 8.9-magnitude quake shifted the planet on its axis by nearly 4 inches (10 centimeters).

The temblor, which struck Friday afternoon near the east coast of Japan, killed hundreds of people, caused the formation of 30-foot walls of water that swept across rice fields, engulfed entire towns, dragged houses onto highways, and tossed cars and boats like toys. Some waves reached six miles (10 kilometers) inland in Miyagi Prefecture on Japan’s east coast.

The quake was the most powerful to hit the island nation in recorded history and the tsunami it unleashed traveled across the Pacific Ocean, triggering tsunami warnings and alerts for 50 countries and territories as far away as the western coasts of Canada, the U.S. and Chile. The quake triggered more than 160 aftershocks in the first 24 hours — 141 measuring 5.0-magnitude or more. The quake was “hundreds of times larger” thn the 2010 quake that ravaged Haiti. The Japanese quake was of similar strength to the 2004 earthquake in Indonesia that triggered a tsunami that killed over 200,000 people in more than a dozen countries around the Indian Ocean. “The tsunami that it sent out was roughly comparable in terms of size. [The 2004 tsunami] happened to hit some regions that were not very prepared for tsunamis … we didn’t really have a very sophisticated tsunami warning system in the Indian Ocean basin at the time so the damage was significantly worse.”

The Japanese quake comes just weeks after a 6.3-magnitude earthquake struck Christchurch on February 22, toppling historic buildings and killing more than 150 people. The timeframe of the two quakes have raised questions whether the two incidents are related, but experts say the distance between the two incidents makes that unlikely.

Japan faces a “70 per cent” possibility of a magnitude 7 aftershock following the massive earthquake that struck its northeast coast. “There is a 70 per cent possibility that an aftershock with a magnitude of seven or more will occur” within the next three days, said the director of earthquake prediction and information at the Japan Meteorological Agency on Sunday.

“The possibility is 50 per cent” during the three days from March 16, he added, pointing out that strong aftershocks have continued since Friday’s quake and tsunami. Aftershocks have occurred in an undersea area, 500km long and 200km wide, off the coasts of Miyagi and Ibaraki prefectures in the northeast.

LATEST NEWS -

21:30 – Japan’s Earthquake Research Committee estimates Friday’s devastating earthquake forced the tectonic plate on which Japan sits to spring eastward by about 20m (66 feet). The researchers also say the quake caused some areas, from Iwate to Fukushima prefectures, to sink up to about 75cm.

20:56 – This tsunami was literally a “ONCE-IN-A-MILLENNIUM” EVENT. In 869, according to historical texts, there was an earthquake of this scale in which 1,000 people died. Geological research has revealed evidence of the tsunami 5km inland, but only bits and pieces of what happened are known.

2020 – The rolling, three-hour power outages scheduled to affect prefectures in Kanto and Chubu on Monday – the first in Japan’s history – will take place between 0620 and 2200 local time on Monday. “If we continue [using electricity at the current level], there is the possibility of an all-out blackout in the area. The impact of a sudden, large-scale blackout would be immense and we must prevent it at all costs.”

2011: A former adviser on radiation to the UK government, Dr Christopher Busby, has told the BBC the situation at the nuclear plants is extremely serious. “Particularly concerning is the [Fukushima] number three reactor which I understand is in trouble now, because… it runs on a different sort of fuel; it doesn’t run on uranium, it runs on a mixed uranium plutonium fuel, and plutonium is an extremely serious hazard so if this stuff comes out then it’s going to make what’s happened so far, in terms of the tsunami damage, look a little bit like an entrée to the real course.”

Japan ‘Big One’ may raise quake risk for years, but help end mystery of tectonic plates. The Japanese earthquake which sent a 7-meter (23-foot) tsunami onto land is erasing some of the mystery of the Earth’s crust even as it sparks more temblors in the Pacific for years.

Stress levels changed on the undersea plates extending 500 kilometers to the east and west of the epicenter, likely provoking aftershocks “for a long time.’ Japan’s largest quake on record, which MAY HAVE KNOCKED THE PLANET 3.9 INCHES OFF ITS AXIS as one plate slid beneath another, will “greatly mprove understanding of the risk of these events in other locations around the Pacific and elsewhere.”

Predicting earthquakes with precision eludes scientists, who until recently lacked data to improve forecasts. Japan’s disaster will aid research into how the mosaic of plates around the world can shift and trigger shocks, building on measurements from Indonesia in 2004 and Chile in 2010 that gave geophysicists insight into how the biggest tremors change Earth’s geology. “Before 2004, most geophysicists taught that only limited parts of the Ring of Fire could be capable of generating really giant earthquakes. After the Sumatra event and especially after this last event maybe we should seriously consider THE POSSIBILITY THAT ANY PART OF THE RING OF FIRE COULD GENERATE A 9-PLUS EARTHQUAKE.”

The Sumatran quake in 2004, which generated an Indian Ocean tsunami that left about 220,000 dead or missing in 12 countries, sent aftershocks that continued for years and killed hundreds more. In Japan’s case, the 8.9- magnitude event was generated from the thrusting of the Pacific and North American plates on or near the zone where they meet. Hundreds of aftershocks have occurred already in Japan. Other large quakes may still threaten Japan. The subduction zone, an area where one tectonic plate is forced under another, to the east of Japan still haven’t become active. “Whether this is imminent to happen or will take another 10 years remains to be experienced.”

The earthquake that struck Japan to exact a massive economic toll estimated at up to $34.1 billion, a leading risk analysis firm said

Anxiety in Japan grows as death toll steadily climbs - In a nation already besieged with grief over mounting casualties, fears of possible radiation and the threat of more earthquakes, the nightmare grew for Japanese residents Monday as thousands of bodies reportedly surfaced and a government official confirmed another explosion at a nuclear reactor building.

The official death toll reached 1,647 on Monday. But the numbers did not take into account the 2,000 bodies that Japan’s Kyodo News said had been found in the hard-hit Miyagi Prefecture on Japan’s northeast coast. If confirmed, the discovery would be the largest yet of victims from the epic quake and devastating tsunami that hit Japan four days ago.

In Miyagi Prefecture, rescue workers sifted through mountains of debris as hope for survivors appeared to dim. The town of Minami Sanriku — about 5 kilometers (3 miles) from the Pacific Ocean — morphed into a massive pile of wood that used to house some 20,000 residents. An eerie silence prevailed as emergency rescue officials said they didn’t think anyone was still alive under the rubble. About half of Minami Sanriku’s population was unaccounted for.

So far, about 15,000 people have been rescued. Japanese troops went door-to-door in the city of Ishinomaki, hoping to find survivors — but found mostly the bodies of elderly residents. In the area of Sendai, where houses and buildings disintegrated into rushing water within seconds, solemn residents waited in lines that stretched blocks for food, water and gas. Despite the devastation surrounding them, the crowds appeared calm and orderly. But more despair may be in store. There’s a high chance of a magnitude-7.0 quake or above in the next three days because of increased tectonic activity, the earthquake prediction department chief for the Japan Meteorological Agency said Sunday. The U.S. Geological Survey reported scores of such aftershocks. More than two dozen were greater than magnitude 6, the size of the quake that severely damaged Christchurch, New Zealand last month. About 2.5 million households, just over 4% of the total in Japan, were without electricity Sunday.

The devastating earthquake and tsunami will rank among the costliest natural disaster on record, experts predict. Japan’s central bank announced plans Monday to inject 15 trillion yen ($186 billion) into the economy to reassure global investors in the stability of Japanese financial markets and banks. Still, Japanese markets dropped sharply on Monday, the first trading day since the disaster. By mid-day local time, the benchmark Nikkei 225 was down more than 6.4%. The drop was the largest single day fall since September 2008 after the collapse of Lehman Brothers during the financial crisis.

A massive emergency response operation is underway in northern Japan, with world governments and international aid groups coming together to bring relief to the beleaguered island nation. Sixty-nine governments have offered to help with search and rescue. Friday’s quake is the strongest in recorded history to hit Japan, according to USGS records that date to 1900. The world’s largest recorded quake took place in Chile on May 22, 1960, with a magnitude of 9.5.

Japanese authorities have said there is a “possibility” that a meltdown has occurred in the damaged reactors, but said that there were no indications of dangerously high radiation levels in the atmosphere. Still, the government evacuated more than 200,000 residents from homes close to the plant and tested 160 people for radiation exposure on Sunday.

LATEST NEWS -

06:48 – The Bank of Japan is pumping billions of dollars into the financial system. The bank made two cash injections on Tuesday, totalling $98 billion (£61bn). This follows a record intervention yesterday, worth more than $180 billion.

04:37 – The eastern fishing town of Otsuchi “is possibly the worst-affected town along the coastline, it was very close to the epicentre of the quake. People had very little time to escape the tsunami and half of the population possibly out of 17,000 people are unaccounted for still. People here are being incredibly stoic. It’s hard to say what’s going through their minds, when you talk to people they’re very reserved, it’s four days into this disaster and they are still in a state of shock.

04:02 – Higher than normal radiation levels are detected in Tokyo, the city government is saying. However, a Tokyo government officials says the radiation levels in the city are not seen as harmful to human health.

03:55 – Japan’s nuclear safety agency says it suspects an explosion may have damaged the vessel that holds the number two reactor. That would make it a more serious incident than the two previous explosions at Fukushima that were thought just to have damaged the buildings that housed the reactors.

The 1707 Hōei earthquake was the largest in Japanese history until the 2011 Sendai earthquake surpassed it. The 8.6 earthquake and the resulting destructive tsunami caused more than 5,000 casualties in 1707. This event ruptured ALL of the segments of the Nankai megathrust simultaneously, the only earthquake known to have done this. It may also have triggered the last eruption of Mount Fuji some 49 days later.

The Nankai megathrust has five distinct segments that can rupture independently. Megathrust earthquakes on this structure TEND TO OCCUR IN PAIRS, with a RELATIVELY SHORT TIME GAP between them. In addition to two events in 1854, there were similar earthquakes in 1944 and 1946. In each case, the NORTHEASTERN SEGMENT RUPTURED BEFORE the southwestern segment. In the 1707 event, the earthquakes were either simultaneous, or close enough in time, to not be distinguished by historical sources.

Wednesday morning- A 6.0 magnitude earthquake has struck in the Pacific just off Japan’s Chiba prefecture with the force strong enough to sway buildings in Tokyo. No tsunami warning has been immediately issued but the Japan Meteorological Agency has warned of a possible change in sea levels.

00:08 – The Japanese authorities are still struggling to cope with the humanitarian aftermath of Friday’s earthquake and tsunami. More than 500,000 people are living in temporary shelters, which are short of water, food and fuel – while more freezing weather and snow is predicted for the days ahead. Nearly 3,500 people are now known to have died and many more remain unaccounted for.

JAPAN - The official toll of the dead and missing following a devastating earthquake and tsunami that flattened Japan’s northeast coast has topped 11,000, with 3,676 confirmed dead.

Aviation regulators in London have issued a formal warning over the possible radioactive hazard from Japan’s stricken Fukushima nuclear power plant. London Volcanic Ash Advisory Centre, the world’s focal point for notifying the aviation industry of International Atomic Energy Agency warnings on the release of radioactive material, issued a message covering 10 regions. The open-ended warning, issued at 2pm AEDT on Wednesday, applies to airspace zones in Japan, Russia, China, the United States and South Korea.

Most carriers are still flying to Tokyo, but German airline Lufthansa Tuesday diverted flights from the capital to other Japanese airports.

AUSTRALIA’S food safety authority is investigating the possible risk that products imported from Japan could become contaminated with radiation. Food Standards Australia New Zealand said a probe now underway will assess a narrow band of imported products including seaweed, wasabi and soy sauce. The results of the probe will be handed to the Australian Quarantine and Inspection Service to assist them in determining what additional border action is needed if any.

European centres set to take radiation victims - More than 500 bone marrow transplant centres in Europe have been asked to receive victims of the nuclear accident in Japan if necessary. “We’re working to the model that we might be required to take 200 or more people” suffering the effects of radiation, “but I think it is remote that that would happen,” said the head of the European Group for Blood and Marrow Transplantation ‘s Nuclear Accident Committee. Tthe EBMT today asked all of its 536 centres by email if they would be able to treat some patients, who had suffered radiation exposure from the quake-hit Fukushima No.1 plant in Japan. “You will be aware there is real concern about the possibility that a significant number of workers attempting to control the damaged nuclear power station” in Japan might receive “doses or whole body radiation over the next week or so. In the unlikely event that many Japanese power station workers are irradiated (but not contaminated), we would like to evaluate the capacity to provide humanitarian treatment in EU countries if Japanese medical resources are overwhelmed.”

The workers at the plant would not suffer any effects of radiation for another three days, “so that’s why we put this in place three days in advance”. Not all the victims would have to undergo bone marrow transplants, and many would merely need antibiotics or blood transfusions. “If it really does evolve into a major radiation problem and there are several hundred victims, then I think that the humanitarian response on a worldwide basis will be huge.” The NAC had been “practising training and education and selecting centres of excellence in Europe that could respond to a general emergency in Europe or the world, such as could potentially happen in Japan”.

Germany on Tuesday became the first European country to shut nuclear plants in the wake of the crisis in Japan as the European Union made plans to test all 143 nuclear power plants in its 27 countries. Germany shut down 7 plants.

VOLCANOES -

JAPAN – Shinmoedake volcano in southwestern Japan has erupted after nearly two weeks of relative silence, sending ash and rocks up to four kilometres into the air. It was not immediately clear if the eruption was a direct result of the massive 9.0-magnitude earthquake that rocked northern areas on Friday, unleashing a fierce tsunami and sparking fears that more than 10,000 may have been killed. Shinmoedake volcano in the Kirishima range saw its first major eruption for 52 years in January. There had not been any major activity at the site since March 1. Authorities have maintained a volcano warning at a level of three out of five, restricting access to the entire mountain.

HAWAII – The Big Island had more than 20 small earthquakes on Thursday and another two on Friday. The activity was related to Kilauea Volcano, which seems to be otherwise taking a breather. There was no active lava visible yesterday at Kilauea. On the east rift zone, the March 5 Kamoamoa fissure eruption remained paused. At the summit, the bottom of the deep vent set within the east wall of Halemaumau Crater was covered with rubble and lava was no longer visible. A gas plume at the summit was moving to the southwest, and sulfur dioxide emissions remained high. There were 22 earthquakes near the Big Island on Thursday, most of them in the Kalapana area. There were five that registered magnitude 3.0 or above, the largest at magnitude 4.6, which occurred at 10:58 p.m. Quakes of magnitude 3.0 and 2.6 hit on Friday. All were seven to 17 miles south or southwest of Leilani Estates.

The USGS said the cluster was not related to Japan’s quake or the tsunami. Most earthquakes in the Kalapana area and along the lower south flank of Kilauea Volcano are caused by motion of the volcano’s south flank southeast over the ocean floor as a result of magma injected into the rift zone.

INDONESIA - One of Indonesia’s most active volcanoes, Mount KARANGETANG, erupted Friday, sending lava and searing gas clouds down its slopes. Authorities were still trying to evacuate residents living near the slopes of Mount Karangetang. There have not been immediate reports of injuries or damages. It last erupted in August, killing four people. The eruption occurred hours after the devastating 8.9-magnitude earthquake hit Japan. In November 2010, Indonesia’s most dangerous volcano, Mount Merapi, erupted and killed at least 58 people and injured dozens.

Mount BROMO in Probolinggo, East Java, has seen a rise in volcanic activity in the past few days as consecutive eruptions spew thick grey plumes into the air. The authorities have set Mount Bromo’s status at ‘standby’, not allowing people to get any closer than about a mile. The Mount Bromo explosion in 2004 killed two people, and injured five others. Indonesia has about 500 volcanoes, nearly 130 of them active and 68 classified as dangerous.

Japan Earthquake Triggered Volcano Eruption In Russia? – The major earthquake that hit Japan Friday may have just triggered some volcanoes in Russia as well. While reports are still vague on the incident, there is a strong correlation between the two occurrences. In Russia, there are reports that explosions were accompanied by minor earthquakes.

According to Russian media reports, the first cloud of dust covered the city of Ust-Kamczatsk. Over five thousand people are forced to stay at home. The authorities have recommended the strict ban on opening windows. The population, however, was not evacuated, and experts say that the dust does not constitute a great danger. Despite this, from Thursday, all offices of state institutions and organizations have suspended work – except in cases of emergency. For some time, roads were also closed in the region. While this eruption does not seem to be a significant threat to the people in Russia, the fact that an earthquake in Japan could have triggered a volcano eruption in Russia does have some significance.

The monster that still menaces Tokyo – As massive as it was, this quake is not Japan’s worst case scenario. Whether it’s from typhoon, tsunami, earthquake or volcano, or some combination of those, the history of Japan is replete with cycles of building, flourishing, destruction and eventual rebirth. There is a monster sleeping near Tokyo: Mt. Fuji, the strikingly beautiful 12,000 foot volcano just 60 miles from the city. Fuji-san last erupted in 1707. Speculation of an eruption first spread in 2000 and 2001, when scientists were shocked to detect swarms of low-frequency earthquakes beneath Mount Fuji. The announcement sent Japanese media into a frenzy and forced government bureaucrats to dust off disaster management plans. The episode also prompted the formation of a national committee to assess the current danger of the volcano and create a detailed hazard map of the potentially affected areas, including the town of Fujinomiya.

Tokyo has been destroyed and rebuilt twice in living memory: By a massive earthquake in 1923, and during World War II. Today Tokyo is home to about 30 million people, with many more scattered within range of massive Mt. Fuji. Several US military bases lie within range of the volcano’s likely ash and debris field. A major eruption of Mt. Fuji would severely threaten if not destroy one of the world’s largest and most advanced and important cities, and likely cripple the global economy for years. Based on its history of erupting about once every 30 years prior to that last eruption, Fuji’s reawakening is long overdue.

Mud volcano erupts in Azerbaijan - A mud volcano erupted in Gobustan region of Azerbaijan on March 13. Witnesses heard an explosion before the eruption, mud breccia erupted and then fire blazed up in the territory of Shikhzayirli mud volcano. The fire had an altitude above 50 m. Experts and rescuers of the Ministry of Emergency Situations immediately arrived at the site to prevent any emergency situation. The fire altitude in the Shikhzayirli mud volcano lowered currently and 1-2 m fire is seen in two centers. Its activation decreased and mud flow is seen in some bald peaks. Deep grikes were created around the crater. The mud volcano is not threatening the nearby villages.

Three running quakes have hit Shirvan city of Azerbaijan. One quake hit an area in 40 km north-east of Shirvan city at 11.52 on March 14. The magnitude of the quake in its epicenter was 3.5 on 12-magnitude scale. A 3-magnitude quake occurred in Shirvan and Hajigabul and 2-magnitude in Sabirabad. No casualties and devastation were reported. A second 3.5-magnitude quake occurred in 35 km north of Shirvan at 12.14 and aftershocks with same magnitudes in Hajigabul and Sabirabad. No casualties were reported.

Activity of mud volcanoes in Azerbaijan increased sharply – Azerbaijanhas observed serious activity at two more mud volcanoes, in addition to the one in Gobustan region which erupted on 13 March. The Ministry of Environment & Natural Resources of Azerbaijan reports of current grave activity of mud volcanoes in Dashgil and Ayrantoken located in Alat township of Garadagh district of Baku.

Gobustan-based mud volcano Shihzyayirli mud volcano that erupted yesterday continues erupting and the height of its fire has increased from yesterday’s level of 30 cm up to 2 m which caused natural anxiety of the population of the nearby village Shihzyayirli located at distance of 600-700 m from the volcano. At present, noisy release of gas is observed in different parts of the volcano. As a result of volcano explosion, the height of the fire reached up to 60-70 m, the heat from it was felt at a distance of 3 km, and cracks with width of 40-50 cm appeared on the ground. Shihzyayirli volcano erupts every 6-7 years, and the last time erupted in 2005, but this year’s eruption was much more intense. According to experts, eruption of volcanoes is not a signal about a possible earthquake.

HAWAII – Authorities say lava from a volcano eruption in Hawaii has sparked a wildfire in Volcanoes National Park. The blaze has burned at least 75 acres since Sunday. The lava is from the Kamoamoa eruption. The fire is creeping through Ohia forest in an area that has been burned at least twice due to lava flows. Kilauea, one of the world’s most active volcanoes, has been in constant eruption since Jan. 3, 1983. Firefighters plan to fly over the area Tuesday to assess the situation.

Erupting volcano adds to Japan’s woes – Sunday’s eruption, which was THE BIGGEST VOLCANIC ACTIVITY IN 52 YEARS at Shinmoedake, caused widespread destruction and panic. The Shinmoedake volcano resumed activity after lying dormant for a couple of weeks. The volcano, on Kyushu island is about 950 miles from the epicenter of Friday’s magnitude 9.0 earthquake, which devastated much of the country’s northeastern coast. It’s not yet known if the eruptions were linked to quake, officials said. Japan lies on the “ring of fire,” a seismically active zone where earthquakes and volcanic eruptions are common.

The volcano erupted January 19 after remaining dormant for two years. Volcanologists had warned that a “lava dome” was growing inside the volcano’s crater, although it was uncertain when or if the volcano would erupt. The blast could be heard for miles, and shattered windows four miles away. Hundreds of people fled the area as the volcano spewed debris, including hot ash and rocks, more than 6,000 feet in the air.

TAIWAN - Underwater volcanoes pose risk to nuclear plant, activists say. The earthquake that hit Japan on Friday last week has provided additional ammunition to environmental activists who are worried that one of Taiwan’s nuclear power plants lies within an area known for its underwater volcanoes. As many as 70 underwater volcanoes are located within an 80km radius of the soon-to-be-operational Fourth Nuclear Power Plant in Gongliao Distric, New Taipei City. Up to 11 of those volcanoes are active.

Although atomic regulatory officials dismissed the risks, activists said the authorities should take another look in light of the nuclear incidents in Japan. The volcanoes, which are the highest concentration near a nuclear plant in the world, could lead to “a serious disaster” in the event of an earthquake or tsunami on the scale of that that struck Japan last week. The Fourth Nuclear Power Plant — also known as the Longmen plant — is expected to come online this year or next year.

“The findings support … the view that a natural disaster off Taiwan would have even more serious consequences than [what is happening] at Fukushima.”

“The reactors in the nuclear plant would be more unstable in the event of an earthquake. There are active volcanoes all around it.” Responding to the concerns, nuclear regulatory officials said the Fourth Nuclear Power Plant is safe, pointing to its location on stable bedrock and multiple backup systems, which officials say exceed those Japan had in place. “We believe that [construction of] the fourth nuclear plant can continue as planned.”

The Scariest Earthquake Is Yet to Come – The tsunami that struck Japan was the third in a series of events that now put California at risk. We all now know, and have for 50 years, that geography is the ultimate reason behind the disaster. Japan is at the junction of a web of tectonic-plate boundaries that make it more peculiarly vulnerable to ground-shaking episodes than almost anywhere else. But geography is not the only factor in this particular and acutely dreadful event. Topography played an especially tragic role in the story, too – for it is an axiom known to all those who dwell by high-tsunami-risk coastlines that when the sea sucks back, you run: you run inland and, if at all possible, you run uphill. But in this corner of northeast Japan, with its wide plains of rice meadows and ideal factory sites and conveniently flat airport locations, there may well be a great deal of inland – but there is almost no uphill.

Even more worrisome than geography and topography, though, is geological history. For this event cannot be viewed in isolation. There was a horrifically destructive Pacific earthquake in New Zealand on Feb. 22, and an even more violent magnitude-8.8 event in Chile almost exactly a year before. All three phenomena involved more or less the same family of circum-Pacific fault lines and plate boundaries – and though there is still no hard scientific evidence to explain why, there is little doubt now that earthquakes do tend to occur in clusters: a significant event on one side of a major tectonic plate is often – not invariably, but often enough to be noticeable – followed some weeks or months later by another on the plate’s far side. It is as though the earth becomes like a great brass bell, which when struck by an enormous hammer blow on one side sets to vibrating and ringing from all over.

Now there have been catastrophic events at three corners of the Pacific Plate – one in the northwest, on Friday; one in the southwest, last month; one in the southeast, last year.

That leaves just one corner unaffected – the northeast. And the fault line in the northeast of the Pacific Plate is the San Andreas Fault, underpinning the city of San Francisco. All of which makes the geological community very apprehensive. All know that the San Andreas Fault is due to rupture one day – it last did so in 1906, and strains have built beneath it to a barely tolerable level. To rupture again, with unimaginable consequences for the millions who live above it, some triggering event has to occur. Now three events have occurred that might all be regarded as triggering events. There are in consequence a lot of thoughtful people in the American West who are very nervous indeed. [The last really big quake that occurred on the northeastern rim of the ring of fire occurred in Alaska. That mega-thrust 9.2 earthquake hit at 5:36 P.M. Alaska Standard Time on Good Friday, March 27, 1964, on the day of the full moon. The ground split open, highways buckled, entire buildings collapsed and several tsunamis were generated.]

Fires still spreading from Hawaii volcano – Authorities say lava-ignited fires from the Kilauea volcano eruption in Hawaii continue to spread across Volcanoes National Park. Park firefighters said Wednesday that the blaze has now burned more than 1,166 acres since Sunday. They say the fire was sparked from the Kamoamoa eruption. The wind-driven fire is flowing through Ohia forest in an area that has been burned at least twice due to lava flows. Firefighting resources have been ordered from California and are expected to arrive by Friday. Kilauea, one of the world’s most active volcanoes, has been in constant eruption since Jan. 3, 1983.

TSUNAMI / FREAK WAVES / ABNORMAL TIDES / RISING SEA LEVELS -

JAPAN faces nervous aftershock wait, with ’70 per cent’ chance of tsunami returning. A magnitude-7 quake is capable of destroying buildings and triggering tsunamis. Japan’s Prime Minister said his people were facing its WORST CRISIS IN 65 YEARS since the end of World War II.

A Japanese man who was swept 15km out to sea by Japan’s deadly tsunami was plucked to safety today after being spotted clinging to a piece of wreckage. A Maritime Self-Defence Force destroyer rescued the 60-year-old after discovering him floating on a piece of roof in waters off Fukushima Prefecture, two days after the disaster struck. The man, from the city of Minamisoma which has been virtually obliterated, was swept out along with his house after the massive tsunami tore into Japan’s northeast following the 9-magnitude earthquake on Friday. He is conscious and in “good condition” after his rescue which took place around 12.40pm local time. “I ran away after learning that the tsunami was coming. But I turned back to pick up something at home, when I was washed away. I was rescued while I was hanging to the roof from my house.”

The government has said that at least 1,000 people are believed to have lost their lives in the disaster, and police estimate more than 215,000 people are huddled in emergency shelters. However, the police chief of badly-hit Miyagi prefecture, which lies north of Fukushima, said that the death toll was certain to exceed 10,000 in his district alone.

New tsunami warning for Japan cancelled - After initial reports of a three metre tsunami off the coast, the Meteorological Agency says there is no current risk of another deadly wave hitting Japan’s northeastern coast. Soldiers and officials along a stretch of Japan’s northeastern coast had warned residents that the area could be hit by another tsunami, ordering them to higher ground. Farther south along the coast, helicopters flew over coastal communities warning residents to head to higher ground. In Sendai, the biggest city in the area, police announced warnings on a public address system.

Earlier, Jiji news agency reported that A LARGE WAVE WAS SPOTTED OFF THE COAST by a helicopter, but the meteorological agency says it had detected no sign of a new tsunami or a major quake that would have triggered it. Authorities had issued evacuation orders in some parts of the devastated coastline after the initial report and as SEAWATER WAS SEEN RETREATING off Iwate and Aomori prefectures – a phenomenon that occurs before tsunamis. The crew of a fire department helicopter had spotted the three-metre high tsunami off Fukushima prefecture, saying it was expected to hit shortly after 1.30pm AEDT. By 2pm AEDT no tsunami was reported to have hit.

A meteorological agency official said: “When we detect an earthquake, the agency issues either a tsunami warning or an alert, but there was no quake monitored”. He added, as a note of caution, that some of the agency’s offshore monitoring systems had been broken by last Friday’s disaster. An offshore quake had struck 140 kilometres northeast of Tokyo earlier today, shaking tall buildings in Tokyo, but authorities did not then issue a tsunami alert. The quake off coastal Ibaraki prefecture – one of many aftershocks since Friday’s massive 9 quake – had a 5.8-magnitude.

Boats aren’t being allowed to travel through California’s Santa Cruz Harbor as crews work on hauling up sunken boats and removing debris after Friday’s tsunami. A U.S. Coast Guard spokeswoman said Sunday that 18 boats sunk in the harbor, while approximately 100 were damaged.

MYSTERY BOOMS / SKYQUAKES -

SOUTH CAROLINA - 314/11 – Booms revive an old mystery. The first boom sounded like thunder. The second shook windows. The third shook an entire house. Then they quieted, mysteriously. The series of booms were reported Monday afternoon by people on Kiawah and Johns islands and Isle of Palms. At least three booms, each more intense than the last, occurred within 15 minutes starting about 3:30 p.m. “There’s another one. The third one, just now. It’s like thunder getting closer to us, only there’s no rumble, just a blast. Have you ever been around dynamite? A pretty good charge when they’re blowing up stumps, that’s what it’s like.”

Seismographs at the College of Charleston did not report any earthquakes. A public affairs officer for the Marine Corps Air Station in Beaufort said no F-18s were flying in the area at that time. A public affairs officer for the Charleston Air Force Base said C-17s were operating, but not fast enough to cause sonic booms.

That likely leaves the strange phenomenon of the Seneca Guns, the unexplained booms that have been reported along coasts around the world almost as long as people have lived there. The sound is so close to the blast of a cannon that folk legend in the East says it’s made by the guns of Seneca Indians, fired to get revenge on the settlers who displaced them.

The booms have been blamed on gases released from the sea floor, undersea landslides along the Continental Shelf, the echoed sound of distant thunder, lightning-like electrical discharges that don’t cause lightning, even meteors crashing into the atmosphere at angles. But so far, nobody has been able to say for sure what causes them.

TROPICAL STORMS -

Tropics get Active in the… South Atlantic! – Every once in a while, a storm forms in the south Atlantic and that is what happened yesterday. The storm, classified as Sub-Tropical Storm Arani, formed off the East Coast of Brazil. Arani is only the third such system to form since Cyclone Catarina formed in the same area back in 2004. Catarina is the ONLY Cyclone to have formed in the South Atlantic. Sub-Tropical Storm Arani has already weakened and will continue to do so as it moves away from the coast of Brazil.

Sub-Tropical storms are different from typical Tropical Storms. Sub-Tropical storms have some characteristics of tropical storms, while having other characteristics of the low pressure systems we deal with in winter. Tropical systems can’t form as easily in the South Atlantic as they can in the North Atlantic, with the primary reason being wind shear. Wind shear is defined as winds moving one way at one level of the atmosphere while higher up the winds are moving in a completely different direction. If there is high wind shear, then thunderstorms are not able to congregate around the center of low pressure and thus no tropical system is able to form. Another reason tropical systems cannot form as easily is because the water temperatures generally aren’t warm enough, between 70 & 75F, while the threshold is usually 80F. (satellite photo)

Arani had the appearance of a tropical cyclone but has been classified as a subtropical cyclone. Subtropical cyclones are low pressure areas that develop with a cold core and transition to a warm core in the mid-levels of the troposphere, resembling a tropical cyclone. They more typically form outside of hurricane season (which is June 1 to Nov. 30 in the Northern Atlantic, for example). They also have broad wind patterns and that means that their maximum sustained winds are usually located farther from the center than a tropical cyclone. They also have no weather fronts linked to them, such as a typical low pressure area that brings summertime storms with an associated cold front. Subtropical cyclones can sometimes become tropical cyclones, and occasionally, tropical cyclones can become subtropical.

Tropical cyclones are very rare in the Southern Atlantic Ocean. In 2004 a cyclone called Catarina formed in the South Atlantic and caused some controversy when it was classified as a hurricane by the United States’ National Hurricane Center. Arani is over the open waters of the Southern Atlantic and continues to move east-southeast and farther away from Brazil.

HEAVY RAINS / FLOODING / LANDSLIDES / UNUSUAL & OUT-OF-SEASON WEATHER -

AUSTRALIA – More homes are under threat from rising water levels in Western Australia’s Kimberley region after the town of Warnum was inundated yesterday. People in Wyndham, Kununurra and Halls Creek, including outlying communities in the Ord and Fitzroy River catchments, have been told to remain vigilant after significant flooding at Warnum in East Kimberley over the weekend. Water levels are rising quickly in local rivers and streams, and creeks are also expected to be fast-flowing. Warnum was hit by flood waters when up to 400mm of rain fell, causing flooding and major structural damage. The town has is uninhabitable and remains without power. The sewerage system has also broken and the air strip is no longer accessible. Up to 300 people have been evacuated to the Warmun Roadhouse. Further rainfall with moderate to heavy falls up to 100mm and isolated heavier falls are forecast for the Ord River catchment until tomorrow morning, the bureau has warned.

U.S. Major flooding continued along the Passaic River in northern New Jersey on Sunday after the river crested at Little Falls nearly 5 feet above flood stage late on Saturday.

BRAZIL – Floods in southern and southeastern Brazil have forced about 31,000 people to evacuate their homes. More than 14,000 people have been affected in Santa Catarina state, while about 10,000 have left flooded homes in neighbouring Parana state.

Three people died on landslides triggered by the rains. One person remains missing. Heavy rain has been hitting the southern region since Friday, and it has also caused problems in the southeast state of Espirito Santo, where more than 6000 people have been driven from their homes.

AUSTRALIA – More than 100 people have been evacuated from a severely flooded town in Western Australia’s east Kimberley region, where 45 homes have been destroyed and another 20 remain uninhabitable.

INDONESIA – Extreme Weather Causes Havoc in Jakarta. Extreme weather in the capital on Wednesday saw hail falling from the sky, trees uprooted, widespread surface flooding and damage to the exclusive Senayan City in South Jakarta. Hail falls on RARE occasions in Jakarta during the transition between the wet and dry seasons. “It is also triggered by extreme weather like we are experiencing now.” Trees had also blown over throughout the capital. Heavy winds also caused panels from the outside of Senayan City mall to peel away from the building. The ceiling to the Brewhouse cafe on the ground floor also collapsed. There were a number of shocked customers but no injuries.The hailstorm caused damage to buildings in the Senopati area in South Jakarta. The thumb-sized hail broke windows. The hailstorm lasted for about 15 minutes. And was followed by strong winds that lasted for 10 minutes.

Nearly half of the United States is threatened with flooding this spring – The areas most at risk for major or RECORD-BREAKING flooding include the Upper Midwest down into parts of western Illinois and eastern Iowa, as well as portions of the Northeast. “For THE THIRD CONSECUTIVE YEAR, the stage is set for potential widespread, record flooding in the North Central United States.” For example, in St. Paul, Minnesota, there is a 95% chance of major flooding, as well as a 50% chance of record-breaking flooding.

Forecasters are most concerned about communities such as Fargo, North Dakota and St. Paul, where severe flooding has occurred in recent years and the combination of an UNUSUALLY deep snowpack and above average precipitation in the coming weeks is likely to bring yet another major flooding event. The water content in some parts of the North Central states is currently ranked AMONG THE HIGHEST IN THE LAST 60 YEARS.

The rivers that forecasters say are most prone to flooding include the Red River, which comprises the border between eastern North Dakota and northwest Minnesota, the Milk River in eastern Montana, the Minnesota River, and the upper Mississippi River basin from Minneapolis southward to St. Louis, among others. “Many metropolitan areas have a greater than 95 percent chance of major flooding, including Fargo, Grand Forks, St. Paul, Davenport, Rock Island, Sioux Falls and Huron. The NOAA gives an 80 percent chance that Devils Lake in North Dakota will reach two feet above last year’s record level of 1452.1 feet.

How quickly temperatures warm during the spring, along with the amounts of any additional precipitation that may fall from storm systems, will help determine the magnitude, timing and extent of any flooding. NOAA’s spring outlook for April through June shows higher odds of above-average temperatures and below average precipitation across the southern U.S., and below average temperatures from the Pacific Northwest to the northern Plains. The drier than average conditions from Florida, along the Gulf Coast, and westward to the Southwestern states is projected to exacerbate existing drought conditions that have contributed to a recent spate of wildfires. “From the Southwest, across the South and northward to the mid-Atlantic, drought has been spreading and deepening since the winter and is forecast to persist in spring. Wildfires will be an increasing threat, especially when humidity is low and when winds are high.”

The spring outlook takes into account the weakening of La Niña conditions in the equatorial tropical Pacific Ocean. La Niña, which is characterized by cooler than average water temperatures in this region, tends to have the most influence on winter weather, bringing wetter than average conditions to the Pacific Northwest and Ohio Valley, and drier and milder winters in the South. La Niña peaked in December and January, and is projected to be gone within the next month or two. However, its effects will linger in some places, particularly in the Pacific Northwest where a cool early spring can be anticipated.

FOOD SUPPLY-

Japanese survivors worry about dwindling supplies, food - One day after the earthquake and tsunami, entire towns in Japan areimpossible to reach. But search-and-rescue teams are fanning out in what will be a lengthy and complex endeavor.

Japan sends 50,000 rescuers to quake area as death toll mounts - Miyagi prefecture said 10000 residents, MORE THAN HALF THE POPULATION of the town of Minami-Sanriku, couldn’t be located since the March 11 quake. An estimated 4000 people were stranded in evacuation centers in Sendai.

SINGAPORE today said it was testing food imported from Japan for radiation as another explosion rocked an earthquake-hit atomic plant and raised fears of a radioactive catastrophe. “Samples will be taken for testing for radiation. Fresh produce will have priority. AVA will continue to closely monitor the situation and its developments.” The bulk of Japanese imports arrive by sea, but high-end Japanese restaurants in Singapore routinely use air freight to fly in produce such as raw fish – integral to sushi and sashimi – to ensure its freshness and quality. The city-state has a large concentration of restaurants serving Japanese cuisine, which is very popular among Singaporeans.

An explosion was seen on Monday at the ageing Fukushima No. 1 atomic plant 250 kilometres northeast of Tokyo, after an earlier blast on Saturday. The plant’s operator TEPCO said that nine people were injured in the blast in what authorities said was probably a hydrogen explosion which apparently did not damage the reactor. Saturday’s explosion released radioactive vapours into the surrounding area, but the Japanese government said radiation levels released at that time were not high enough to affect human health.

SPACE NEWS-

This week marks the 22nd anniversary of the Quebec Blackout. On March 13, 1989, a geomagnetic storm brought down Hydro-Québec’s power grid and blacked out the entire province. Brownouts and other power irregularities were experienced across much of North America. Today’s “smart power grids” are even more vulnerable because they are interconnected by high voltage lines spanning thousands of miles. In good times, this arrangement allows ultilities to guide power wherever it might be needed. During geomagnetic storms, however, it spreads the danger of a blackout far and wide. What we need is a Solar Shield.

The geomagnetic storms of March 10th and 11th are subsiding. Earth’s magnetic field began shaking on March 10th in response to a CME impact; the reverberations continued for more than 24 hours. In Sweden the auroras were so bright, they competed with campfires. Auroras could appear again, soon. A new solar wind stream was buffeting Earth’s magnetic field Sunday, and NOAA forecasters estimate a 10% chance of severe geomagnetic storms.

HEALTH THREATS -

Japanese authorities are battling the threat of multiple reactor meltdowns at FOUR nuclear power plants. After an explosion on Saturday and reports of partial nuclear meltdowns at the Fukishima No. 1 Nuclear Power Plant and the nearby Fukushima No.2 plant, authorities today reported emergencies at two more nuclear facilities.

At the Tokai No. 2 nuclear power plant, which is only 120km north of Tokyo, the cooling pump stopped working, while at the Onagawa nuclear power plant, in the Miyagi Prefecture, a state of emergency was declared because of excessive radiation levels. The incidents underlined the precipitous situation at the country’s nuclear plants and particularly at the crippled Fukishima facility, where government officials admitted they feared meltdowns occurred within three of the site’s reactors at the No. 1 plant and confirmed that radiation had leaked out.

They are attempting to stop fuel rods deep within the Fukishima reactors from overheating. There were fears that if the rods overheated, they could melt the container housing the core or explode, sending radioactive material into the atmosphere. The Fukishima No. 2 plant could also be in trouble with temperatures in three of its four reactors getting extremely high. A spokesman for the Tokai plant, which suffered a nuclear accident in 1999, said that although a cooling pump had failed, a back-up pump was working and cooling the reactor.

At Fukushima, officials scrambled to prevent the reactors from overheating by pumping in water and releasing steam to depressurize them, and it was later confirmed that seawater was being poured into a third reactor to release a dangerous buildup of pressure. Pumping seawater into a reactor is seen as a last-ditch effort to stop a meltdown because although the water acts as an effective coolant, the corrosive properties of the water mean that the reactor will never function again. 200,000 people have been evacuated from a 12-mile (19-kilometer) zone around the two Fukushima plants that house a total of 10 reactors.

Four people were injured in a huge blast at the Fukushima No. 1 site Saturday and one person was killed and four injured in a crane accident at the other plant nearby. In all, 22 people were hospitalized after being exposed to radioactivity, although it was not immediately clear to what degree they were exposed and what their condition was. Local media said that up to 190 people might have been affected by radiation. In the city of Fukushima, people lined up at a market where shop assistants wore surgical masks. “People are nervous. People are not panicked but nuclear plants are scary. The bottom line is I will pray that the nuclear plant doesn’t explode.”

“There is radiation leaking out, and since the possibility is high, it’s quite scary” – Before news of the problem with reactor No. 3, the nuclear safety agency said the plant accident was less serious than both America’s Three Mile Island accident in 1979 and the 1986 Chernobyl nuclear disaster in the Soviet Union. An official at the agency said it had rated the first incident a 4 according to the International Nuclear and Radiological Event Scale.

Three Mile Island was rated 5 while Chernobyl was rated 7 on the 1 to 7 scale.

However, one of Britain’s leading nuclear experts warned: “The exclusion zone keeps being raised. First it was three kilometres, then 10, now 20, so the radioactive wave is spreading widely. It is in the lap of the gods where it ends up.”

When Ukraine’s Chernobyl power plant went into meltdown 25 years ago, vast areas of Europe were coated in radioactive dust, putting farms out of business and leaving millions ¬fearing long-term health issues. Even British farms felt the effects of the radioactive particles. Yesterday’s winds were blowing away from Japan’s most heavily populated areas but contaminated dust could be swept by the high-altitude jet stream across the Pacific towards the United States.

There are fears that billions of dollars worth of crops will have to be destroyed IF A ‘POISON CLOUD’ HITS AMERICA’S WEST COAST. The jet stream could carry any contamination into the prairie wheat fields that cover more than 50 million acres.

The Fukushima plant has been criticised for its safety procedures. Tepco has a chequered record with breaches of the most basic safety guidelines. In 2002, the president and four senior executives were forced to resign after allegations that safety records had been falsified on 29 occasions.

“It’s not clear what has exploded. If the pressure vessel, the thing that actually holds all the nuclear fuel, were to explode, this is basically what happened at Chernobyl. Then you get an enormous release of radioactive material.”

“As long as that steel inner vessel remains intact then the vast majority of the radiation will be contained. This plant has gone through all the steps that occurred at Three Mile Island, and that led to total meltdown. The inner box has failed completely and it seems that they have let some radiation out into the outer dome. When that exceeded design pressure, they then let some radioactivity out to release the pressure. Clearly they don’t know if the concrete dome has been damaged by the earthquake or not. The combination of water and steam will likely have led to a zirconium steel explosion, and ultimately hydrogen being released. This is the most likely cause of the dramatic explosion you saw. It looks like the reactors automatically shut down following the earthquake, causing a massive collapse of power to the grid. It needed their generators to start them up again but they didn’t count on the tsunami then knocking the generators out. Surely it is not beyond the wit of man to envisage that? Tsunamis do follow earthquakes at sea.”

Radioactive Releases in Japan Could Last Months, Experts Say – As the scale of Japan’s nuclear crisis begins to come to light, experts in Japan and the United States say the country is now facing a cascade of accumulating problems that suggest that radioactive releases of steam from the crippled plants could go on for weeks or even months.

So far, Japanese officials have said the melting of the nuclear cores in the two plants is assumed to be “partial,” and the amount of radioactivity measured outside the plants, though twice the level Japan considers safe, has been relatively modest. But Pentagon officials reported Sunday that helicopters flying 60 miles from the plant picked up small amounts of radioactive particulates — still being analyzed, but presumed to include cesium-137 and iodine-121 — suggesting WIDENING ENVIRONMENTAL CONTAMINATION. In a country where memories of a nuclear horror of a different sort in the last days of World War II weigh heavily on the national psyche and national politics, the impact of continued venting of long-lasting radioactivity from the plants is hard to overstate.

Japanese reactor operators now have little choice but to periodically release radioactive steam as part of an emergency cooling process for the fuel of the stricken reactors that may continue for a year or more even after fission has stopped. The plant’s operator must constantly try to flood the reactors with seawater, then release the resulting radioactive steam into the atmosphere. That suggests that the tens of thousands of people who have been evacuated may not be able to return to their homes for a considerable period, and that shifts in the wind could blow radioactive materials toward Japanese cities rather than out to sea.

Re-establishing normal cooling of the reactors would require restoring electric power — which was cut in the earthquake and tsunami — and now may require plant technicians working in areas that have become highly contaminated with radioactivity. More steam releases also mean that the plume headed across the Pacific could continue to grow. On Sunday evening, the White House sought to tamp down concerns, saying that modeling done by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission had concluded that “Hawaii, Alaska, the U.S. Territories and the U.S. West Coast are not expected to experience any harmful levels of radioactivity.” But all weekend, after a series of intense interchanges between Tokyo and Washington and the arrival of the first American nuclear experts in Japan, officials said they were beginning to get a clearer picture of what went wrong over the past three days. And as one senior official put it, “UNDER THE BEST SCENARIOS, THIS ISN’T GOING TO END ANYTIME SOON.”

The essential problem is the definition of “off” in a nuclear reactor. When the nuclear chain reaction is stopped and the reactor shuts down, the fuel is still producing about 6 percent as much heat as it did when it was running, caused by continuing radioactivity, the release of subatomic particles and of gamma rays. Usually when a reactor is first shut down, an electric pump pulls heated water from the vessel to a heat exchanger, and cool water from a river or ocean is brought in to draw off that heat. But at the Japanese reactors, after losing electric power, that system could not be used. Instead the operators are dumping seawater into the vessel and letting it cool the fuel by boiling. But as it boils, pressure rises too high to pump in more water, so they have to vent the vessel to the atmosphere, and feed in more water, a procedure known as “feed and bleed.”

When the fuel was intact, the steam they were releasing had only modest amounts of radioactive material, in a nontroublesome form. With damaged fuel, that steam is getting dirtier.

Another potential concern is that some Japanese reactors (as well as some in France and Germany) run on a mixed fuel known as mox, or mixed oxide, that includes reclaimed plutonium. It is not clear whether the stricken reactors are among those, but if they are, the steam they release could be more toxic.

The central problem arises from a series of failures that began after the tsunami. It easily overcame the sea walls surrounding the Fukushima plant. It swamped the diesel generators, which were placed in a low-lying area, apparently because of misplaced confidence that the sea walls would protect them. At 3:41 p.m. Friday, roughly an hour after the quake and just around the time the region would have been struck by the giant waves, the generators shut down. The plant switched to an emergency cooling system that operates on batteries, but these were soon depleted.

Inside the plant, there was deep concern that spent nuclear fuel that was kept in a “cooling pond” inside one of the plants had been exposed and begun letting off potentially deadly gamma radiation. Then water levels inside the reactor cores began to fall. While estimates vary, the top four to nine feet of the nuclear fuel in the core and control rods appear to have been exposed to the air – a condition that that can quickly lead to melting, and ultimately to full meltdown.

At 8 p.m., just as Americans were waking up to news of the earthquake, the government declared an emergency, contradicting its earlier reassurances that there were no major problems. There had been no radiation leak. But one was coming: Workers inside the reactors saw that levels of coolant water were dropping. They did not know how severely. “The gauges that measure the water level don’t appear to be giving accurate readings.” What the workers knew by Saturday morning was that cooling systems at a nearby power plant, Fukushima Daini, were also starting to fail, for many of the same reasons. And the pressure in the No. 1 reactor at Fukushima Daiichi was rising so fast that engineers knew they would have to relieve it by letting steam escape.

Shortly before 4 p.m., camera crews near the Daiichi plant captured what appears to have been an explosion at the No. 1 reactor – apparently caused by a buildup of hydrogen. It was dramatic television but not especially dangerous – except to the workers injured by the force of the blast.

The explosion was in the outer container, leaving the main reactor vessel unharmed. (The walls of the outer building blew apart, as they are designed to do, rather than allow a buildup of pressure that could damage the reactor vessel.)

But the dramatic blast was also a warning sign of what could happen inside the reactor vessel if the core was not cooled. “As a countermeasure to limit damage to the reactor core,” Tokyo Electric proposed injecting seawater mixed with boron — which can choke off a nuclear reaction — and it began to do that at 10:20 p.m. Saturday. It was a desperation move: The corrosive seawater will essentially disable the 40-year-old plant; the decision to flood the core amounted to a decision to abandon the facility. But even that operation has not been easy.

To pump in the water, the Japanese have apparently tried used firefighting equipment — hardly the usual procedure. But forcing the seawater inside the containment vessel has been difficult because the pressure in the vessel has become so great. One American official likened the process to “trying to pour water into an inflated balloon,” and said that on Sunday it was “not clear how much water they are getting in, or whether they are covering the cores.” The problem was compounded because gauges in the reactor seemed to have been damaged in the earthquake or tsunami, making it impossible to know just how much water is in the core. And workers at the pumping operation are presumed to be exposed to radiation; several workers, according to Japanese reports, have been treated for radiation poisoning. It is not clear how severe their exposure was.

LATEST NEWS -

09:38 – The BBC’s risk assessment team on the ground in Japan warns that at approximately 0400 local time on Tuesday, the wind is set to change direction, blowing any hazardous material inland.

09:45 – Local media is reporting that water levels have fallen far enough to partly expose the fuel rods at Fukushima’s Number 2 reactor – increasing the likelihood of overheating.

09:43 – “Some of the nuclear fuel may have partially melted down in the overheating. But crucially the primary steel nuclear containment vessels are said to be intact. The authorities report no significant radiation leak, although some Japanese people may be disinclined to trust the authorities who have lied to them about previous nuclear accidents. It looks at the moment as though catastrophe may well be avoided, but the crisis is far from over.”

06:50 – Japan’s government is insisting that radiation levels across the country are safe, says the BBC in Tokyo, but a German businessman says that some foreign firms are starting to move their expatriate staff south – or out of the country altogether – because they don’t have confidence in what the government is saying any more.

06:36 – Cooling functions have stopped and water levels are falling in Reactor 2 at the Fukushima 1 nuclear plant. This morning, there was a huge explosion at Reactor 3, and there was a blast at Reactor 1 on Saturday. But both of those reactors are said to be intact..

06:17 – “The areas which are still under water are very difficult to reach. There are areas which are still cut off, so there are big logistical difficulties. There will be ongoing needs for food and water and sanitation facilities over the next few days and obviously we will have to work very hard to meet the challenge of providing that assistance to those people, very large numbers of people who are in need. It is quite an extensive area along the coast of northeastern Japan and THERE IS AN AREA IN WHICH THE TSUNAMI ALERT WAS ONLY LIFTED RELATIVELY RECENTLY so prior to that humanitarian aid workers were not able to get into that whole area. So whole new vistas of devastation and humanitarian disaster, if you like, are being uncovered in those areas.”

05:42 – Resident in Kobe, tweets: “We seriously need more help. The real is MUCH WORSE THAN REPORTED.

04:41 – In the devastated port of Minamisanriku, where up to 10,000 people are unaccounted for, a strong wind has been blowing, making the effort to find survivors and retrieve bodies from the rubble hazardous.

Japan nuke plant rocked by second blast Monday, now from the number 3 reactor - A second explosion has rocked an earthquake-hit nuclear plant, as Japan struggles to avert a catastrophic reactor meltdown. A new tsunami scare triggered evacuations on the devastated northeast coast after a large wave was spotted rolling in to shore, but authorities said they had detected no sign of a tsunami or a quake that would have caused it.

Japan has been battling to control two overheating reactors at the ageing Fukushima plant after the cooling systems were knocked out by Friday’s 9-magnitude quake and the resulting tsunami that swallowed up whole towns. Shortly after Prime Minister Naoto Kan said the plant was still in an “alarming” state, a blast at its number-3 reactor shook the facility and sent plumes of smoke billowing into the sky. The plant’s operator TEPCO said that nine people were injured in the blast, which authorities said was probably a hydrogen explosion. The chief government spokesman said TEPCO reported that the reactor was probably undamaged and there was a low possibility of a major radiation leak at the plant, 250 kilometres northeast of Tokyo. Another explosion blew apart the building surrounding the plant’s number-one reactor on Saturday but the seal around the reactor itself remained intact. It was likely a partial meltdown had occurred at the Fukushima No.1 reactor.

A meltdown occurs when a reactor core overheats and causes damage to the facility, potentially unleashing radiation into the environment. France’s Institute of Radiation Protection and Nuclear Safety said “VERY LARGE” AMOUNTS OF RADIOACTIVITY WERE “PRODUCED simultaneously with the explosion” at Fukushima on Saturday.

With ports, airports, highways and manufacturing plants shut down, the government has predicted “considerable impact on a wide range of our country’s economic activities”. Tokyo’s stock market plunged more than six per cent in afternoon trade as investors absorbed the impact, including power outages and plant shutdowns, after the biggest quake in Japan’s history. The yen surged to a four-month high after the central bank pumped a RECORD AMOUNT OF MONEY [$185 BILLION] into financial markets while shares in auto makers were hammered more than 10 per cent after they were forced to close factories. Rolling power outages were due to start later on Monday. Millions of people have already been without electricity since the disaster hit on Friday, forcing the shutdown of nuclear plants in the affected areas. Japan relies on nuclear energy for about a third of its power needs.

The United Nations said a total of 590,000 people had been evacuated in the quake and tsunami disaster, including 210,000 living near the two Fukushima nuclear plants. The colossal 9 magnitude tremor sent waves of churning mud and debris racing over towns and farmland in Japan’s northeast, destroying everything in its path and reducing swathes of countryside to a swampy wasteland. In the Miyagi port town of Minamisanriku alone some 10,000 people were unaccounted for – more than half the population. The national police agency said the confirmed death toll now stood at 1,597, but groups of hundreds of bodies were being found along the shattered coastline.

Many survivors were left without water, electricity, fuel or enough food, as authorities appeared overwhelmed by the monumental scale of the disaster. Japan committed 100,000 troops – about 40% of its armed forces – to help earthquake and tsunami survivors as the world rallied behind the disaster-stricken nation and a US aircraft carrier began ferrying in food. The immense force of Friday’s quake has moved Honshu – the main Japanese island – by 2.4 metres.

Meltdown threat minor - The impact of any meltdown in Japanese nuclear reactors will be small compared to the devastation caused by the quake and tsunami, Australia’s best-known nuclear power expert says. He says a significant build-up of radiation is unlikely. “The contribution, if any, to this (disaster) from the nuclear fleet, I expect even under worst case scenarios is going to be small,. That’s not to deny that people are always concerned and justly concerned about the integrity of the nuclear reactor network. The Japanese reactors are probably as good as you can find around the world, but this magnitude 9 earthquake may well have tested the limits of their design.”

Nonetheless, the nuclear situation in Japan was obviously very serious, ranking with the Three Mile Island disaster in the US in 1979 where a reactor was destroyed after the core melted. “The Japanese reactors are not quite at that point. But there are obviously serious concerns about ensuring that the core of one of these reactors where the cooling isn’t working remains under control and does not melt and does not create radiation leaks.” Describing this as the worst case scenario, he said the melting would effectively destroy the core of the reactor. “It could then over time just settle in and the reactor would be irreversibly damaged, or if there was an explosion – and it would be a chemical explosion, nuclear reactors can’t have atomic explosions – then there would be both physical damage and the release of radiation.”

The risk of an uncontrolled loss of containment of the core, releasing large amounts of radiation, was very, very small, and the radiation would probably not spread very far. Noting that people had been evacuated from a 20km exclusion zone around the reactors, he said, “I would think that the possibility that there would be significant build-up of radiation outside the zone would still remain low.”

Japan radiation ‘unlikely to reach US’ - Radiation from nuclear plants damaged in Japan’s earthquake is unlikely to reach US territory in harmful amounts, US nuclear officials say. “Given the thousands of miles between the two countries, Hawaii, Alaska, the US Territories and the US west coast are not expected to experience any harmful levels of radioactivity. All the available information indicates weather conditions have taken the small releases from the Fukushima reactors out to sea away from the population.”

The NRC is coordinating with the US Department of Energy and other federal agencies in providing “whatever assistance the Japanese government requests” as they respond to conditions at several nuclear power plant sites following the March 11 earthquake and tsunami.

Another explosion at Fukushima nuclear reactor as Japan admits meltdown ‘likely’ - A fire is burning at the No.4 nuclear reactor at Japan’s troubled Fukushima’s No. 1 power plant, officials have confirmed. “Every possible method has been used to cool the reactor.” The possibility of a nuclear meltdown is increasing. A MELTDOWN IS “HIGHLY LIKELY” AT THREE REACTORS – meaning a CATASTROPHIC FAILURE of the reactor core that could lead to dangerous radiation leaks.

The fire comes after an explosion at the troubled plant early this morning and damage to part of a reactor container. The radiation level shot up to 8217 micro sievert per hour temporarily this morning after the blast – more than eight times the 1000 micro sievert level to which people are usually exposed in one year.

Earlier, the suppression pool of the No.2 reactor at the Fukushima No.1 plant appeared to have been damaged. The pool forms the base of the container vessel which seals the fuel rods. Plant operator Tokyo Electric Power Co (TEPCO) “said it believes the container vessel has not sustained damage such as a hole, judging from the fact that the radiation level has not jumped”. A huge explosion hit the building housing the number-2 reactor, the third blast at the plant since Saturday – hydrogen explosions at Unit 1 and Unit 3.

Japan is working desperately to avert a nuclear meltdown after Friday’s massive earthquake and tsunami cut power to the ageing plant and knocked out cooling systems. Workers meanwhile have been evacuated from the number-2 reactor plant. Workers near the reactor No.2, excluding those who are pumping water to cool the reactor, have been evacuated. Part of one reactor’s container appears to be damaged, according to the Japanese government. It did not specify which reactor was involved.

Prior to this morning’s blast at the No.2 reactor, the Tokyo Electric Power Company said it was possible one of the earlier blasts had knocked out the cooling system in the previously stable reactor, leaving its fuel rods fully exposed at one point and vulnerable to serious damage. That emergency was compounded when a fire pump ran out of fuel as it was trying to pour seawater into the reactor to cool it down. The water level was eventually restored to 30cm to cover the lower parts of the rods.

Some 200,000 residents within 19km of the two Fukushima plants have been evacuated although some 746 people – mainly patients, elderly people and care workers at three hospitals and nursing homes – were still within the 19km zone yesterday. With new crises daily, it was difficult to gauge where the Fukushima disaster would rate on a scale of nuclear crises, but perhaps “worse than Three Mile Island but not as great as Chernobyl”. Japan’s nuclear safety agency had rated the damaged nuclear plant at four on an International Nuclear Event Scale of zero to seven. “We have the feeling that we are at least more than level five and probably at level six. I say this after speaking to my Japanese counterparts.”

Meanwhile, CNN reported that tests detected low levels of radioactivity on 17 US Navy helicopter crew members from the USS Ronald Reagan after they returned from disaster relief missions to Japan. After washing with soap and water, no further contamination was detected. In addition, the Navy repositioned its ships and planes away from the power plant. The New York Times reported that the Pentagon was expected to announce that crew on deck received a month’s worth of radiation in about an hour. However, there was no indication that any of the military personnel were experiencing side effects from the exposure. Three US helicopters flying missions about 60 miles north of the damaged reactors also became coated with particulate radiation that had to be washed off.

There were also concerns about the situation at other plants in the region. Earthquake-prone Japan uses nuclear power to generate a third of its electricity, though 11 of the country’s roughly 50 reactors – those located in the worst-affected areas – were shut down after the earthquake.

As the search and rescue operation continued, officials announced the discovery of 2000 bodies in Miyagi prefecture. About 1000 bodies were found coming ashore on the Ojika Peninsula and another 1000 were spotted in the town of Minamisanriku, where up to 10,000 residents were unaccounted for. The UN estimated that nearly 600,000 people were evacuated nationwide.

Shredded nerves were further strained yesterday when another strong offshore tremor struck, shaking tall buildings in the capital Tokyo. The 5.8-magnitude quake struck off coastal Ibaraki Prefecture just after 10:00am local time, some 90 miles northeast of Tokyo. The quake and tsunami also damaged or forced the closure of key ports, although airports such as Tokyo’s Narita reopened.

[ The explosion followed an early-morning acknowledgment from Tokyo Electric Power that, BECAUSE OF HUMAN ERROR, the fuel rods inside the Unit 2 reactor had been at least partly exposed to air for more than two hours during two separate incidents the previous evening, allowing them to heat up and causing a buildup of explosive hydrogen gas. Independent experts said it was a grave development that heightened the risk of an uncontrolled release of radiation into the environment. Engineers had begun using fire hoses to pump seawater into the Unit 2 reactor - the third at the plant to receive the last-ditch treatment - after the emergency cooling system failed. Company officials said workers were not paying sufficient attention to the process, however, and let the pump stall [ran out of gas!], allowing the fuel rods to become partially exposed to the air. Once the pump was restarted and water flow was restored, another worker inadvertently closed a valve that was designed to vent steam from the containment vessel. As pressure built up inside the vessel, the pumps could no longer force water into it and the fuel rods were once again exposed.

Another serious risk involves the more than 200 tons of spent nuclear fuel that is stored in pools adjacent to the reactors. Those cooling pools depend on continually circulating water to keep the fuel rods from catching fire. Without power to circulate the water, it heats up and potentially boils away, leaving the fuel rods exposed to air.

An aerial image of the Fukushima plant shows the loss of high-capacity cranes needed to move equipment to service the reactor. The photo also appears to show that the spent fuel pool is steaming hot, which may indicate the water is boiling off. U.S. nuclear experts said they were particularly concerned about the Unit 3 reactor because it is fueled in part with plutonium, an element used in hydrogen bombs that can be more difficult to control than the enriched uranium normally used to fuel nuclear power plants.

In the best-case scenario, the situation at the damaged reactors will take weeks, if not months, to stabilize, U.S. nuclear experts said. “They do not have the situation under control.” The company’s acknowledgement that a “suppression pool” at the bottom of Unit 2, designed to serve as a last line of defense against a meltdown, was believed to have been breached could represent a major escalation of the crisis. “If that is true, then there is a path to the control room, the workers and the outside environment.”

03:37 – A low level RADIOACTIVE WIND COULD REACH TOKYO IN 10 HOURS, the French embassy in the Japanese capital as saying.

03:34 – “It is difficult to make rational decisions when we aren’t getting honest and accurate information from the Japanese officials or news stations.”

03:09 – Japan’s Chief Cabinet Secretary says: “Now we are talking about levels that can impact human health. I would like all of you to embrace this information calmly. These are readings taken near the area where we believe that the release of radioactive substances is occurring. The further away you get from the power plant or reactor the value should go down”.

03:06 – Winds over the stricken nuclear plant are blowing slowly towards the Kanto region, which includes Tokyo.

03:03 – RADIATION IS 400 TIMES THE ANNUAL LEGAL LIMIT near Fukushima’s reactor 3.

00:52 – Radiation levels after the blast at Fukushima’s reactor 2 at 0610 local time (2110 GMT Monday) – Tokyo Electric officials say that one hour of exposure at the nuclear plant would be equivalent to eight times at what a person might experience naturally during the year.

A radioactive plume spreading from stricken nuclear reactors in Japan could hit southern California on Saturday, according to a United Nations forecast – however there is expected to be little health risk. The projection, which is based on current wind patterns, says the plume will move across the Pacific from Japan before touching the Aleutian Islands tomorrow and then heading towards the US.

Radiation levels will dilute as the plume travels and experts have stressed that it would have extremely minor health consequences in the US. The direction could also change with shifting weather patterns. The forecast gave no information about actual radiation levels in the plume.

The model contrasts with advice from officials in California, Oregon and Washington, who have said that radiation from Japanese nuclear reactors is not expected to reach their shores. The US Nuclear Regulatory Commission has said it expects no harmful levels of Japanese radiation to reach the US, with Tokyo and San Francisco roughly 8000km apart.

Japan disaster: Fears death toll could exceed 20,000 as nuke crisis looms. Japanese authorities are using helicopters to dump water on stricken reactors at a nuclear power plant as they battle to avert a nuclear catastrophe. Two loads of seawater were dumped on the plant’s damaged No. 3 reactor, with the third load dropped on the No. 4 reactor. The helicopters have the capacity to dump 6.8 tonnes of water, but it was unknown how much water they were carrying. Eleven water cannon trucks were also en route to the plant to spray water from the ground onto the No. 3 reactor. Construction may start as soon today on a new power line to connect to the Fukushima plant’s water pumps so that workers will be able to cool fuel rods by sending seawater into reactor pressure vessels, containment vessels and storage pools of spent fuel.

Japanese police today lifted the official number of dead and missing from the disaster to nearly 13,000, but there are fears it could top 20,000. The number of confirmed dead stands at 4314, while the official number of missing hit 8606. A total of 2282 people were injured in the disaster. In the coastal town of Ishinomaki the number of missing there was likely to hit 10,000. Around 10,000 people were unaccounted for in the port town of Minamisanriku in the same prefecture. Amid a mass rescue effort there were grim updates indicating severe loss of life along the battered east coast of Honshu island, where the monster waves destroyed or damaged more than 55,380 homes and other buildings.

Australians stranded in Japan are pleading for help to leave the devastated country amid growing fears of a nuclear catastrophe. There are 55 Australians still officially missing, but scores are stranded in areas where radiation levels have soared as the crisis unfolds at Fukushima nuclear power plant. “The infrastructure in that part of Japan now is severely under pressure in terms of electricity, power supply as well as a whole range of other things. Because of these pressures on public infrastructure, we’re recommending that Australians should consider departing from Tokyo and those eight affected prefectures.” Thousands of Australians in TOKYO – where reports put RADIATION AT 20 TIMES THE NORMAL LEVEL – have been urged to consider leaving the Japanese capital. Tokyo was in gridlock with reports thousands were trying to flee amid fears the wind would bring downpours of nuclear rain. Australians in the zone hardest hit by Friday’s tsunami have said they are being urged to get out. Without petrol, food and water, many have no chance.

They claim the Australian Government has failed to provide adequate assistance.

US alarm and surprise over Japan atomic crisis - Over the days of the Fukushima crisis, attention has switched from reactor building 1 to 3, to 2, back to 3 – and now, to 4. Reactors 4, 5 and 6 were shut down at the time of Friday’s earthquake, with some or all of their fuel rods extracted and left in the cooling ponds that each reactor building has under its roof. Once a reactor is turned off, radioactivity and heat generation in the rods die away quickly; down to 7% of the original power within a second of switch-off, 5% within a minute, 0.5% within a day. Transferred to the cooling pond, allowing technicians to do routine maintenance on the reactor, the rods are supposed to sit quietly until the time comes for their re-insertion or their journey towards disposal. The tops of the rods are supposed to be about 5m (16ft) below the water surface. The water keeps them cool and also blocks radiation.

Over the last few days there have been reports suggesting water levels were low and the water “boiling”; and now the US Nuclear Regulatory Commission, which has a team of 11 experts advising in Japan, says the pool is completely dry. This means the fuel rods are exposed to the air. Without water, they will get much hotter, allowing radioactive material to escape. More remarkably, the Tokyo Electric Power Company (Tepco), which owns the power station, has warned: “The possibility of re-criticality is not zero”.

If you are in any doubt as to what this means, it is that in the company’s view, it is possible that enough fissile uranium is present in the cooling pond in enough density to form a critical mass – meaning that A NUCLEAR FISSION CHAIN REACTION COULD START. The pool lies outside the containment chamber. So if a chain reaction happens, it would lead to the enhanced and sustained release of radioactive materials – though not to a nuclear explosion – with nothing to stop the radioactive particles escaping.

The first event in this chain appears to be that the level of water in the pond fell. Why that should happen is not entirely clear. Was the fuel so hot that it caused an unanticipated amount of evaporation? Did the earthquake somehow crack the building’s structure, allowing water to leak out? Did the two fires in the building have an impact? Visually, the building housing reactor 4 is the most damaged on the site – suggesting that reports of the two fires being relatively minor were wide of the mark. Or, did technicians at some point take water from the pond for use in reactor 4′s cooling system? There is nothing to say they did; but during the chaos of the weekend, with power systems and options disappearing before their eyes, it might have seemed like a good idea.

Whatever the reason, the rods became hot enough that steam reacted with the zirconium cladding around the fuel rods, generating hydrogen and causing an explosion. The same thing happened earlier in reactor buildings 1, 2 and 3 – except that in building 4, the rods were in the fuel pond, not in a reactor.

The government ordered Tepco to put water back in the pool. But either because of high radiation levels or broken pumps or some other reason, they could not. Wednesday’s plan to drop water in from a helicopter – a technique that is used to fight forest fires – had to be scrapped because of concerns about radiation affecting the pilots. Without the water, gamma-rays travel straight up into the air. There are reports that the authorities have asked US military personnel to bring in a water cannon, which would presumably be fired from the ground, aiming to shoot the water in through the broken roof. [ A Japanese military helicopter HAS dumped water from a huge bucket onto the stricken Fukushima nuclear power plant.]

The NRC says that in the current dry state, radiation levels from the pond are probably “extremely high”, creating a danger to workers at the plant. Still, in principle this should not raise any possibility of resumed criticality. It could depend on how the rods are arranged in the water. The incident has sparked fears of radioactivity in other Asian countries “In some fuel ponds, they dose the water with boric acid at low levels. In some systems they’ve re-racked the fuel assembly making it possible to put more rods in the pond than it was originally designed for, and then you might put extra sheets of boron in between.” Boron and boric acid mop up neutrons, the particles that sustain the chain reaction. In this sort of reactor, water is a crucial component of the fission process. It acts as a moderator – it reduces the speed of the neutrons, meaning they can be captured by uranium nuclei in the fuel rods, inducing them to split. Without water, the neutrons travel too fast, and are not captured.

A scenario that may be unfolding in the cooling pond in building 4: It is just a possibility, because information is scanty; but here it is. If the fuel rods are dry and hot, there could be damage to the cladding and the release of light radioactive nuclei. To prevent that, you would want to inject water. But water on its own is a neutron moderator and would enhance the chances, however small, of criticality. “You’re caught between a rock and a hard place.”

Now, Tepco is also talking about putting boric acid into the cooling pond of number 4 building.

How closely the rods were packed, whether any boron sheets were in place and if so whether they were damaged by one of the two fires in the building; these are among the many unanswered questions. Meanwhile, the most important task remains to get enough water flowing into reactors 1, 2 and 3 to cool the cores.

Following Tuesday’s apparent cracking of the suppression chamber in reactor 2 – a likely cause of the radioactivity spike then seen – there were concerns that the same thing might have occured on Wednesday in reactor 3. However, the latest reports from Japanese news sources suggest reactor 3′s containment system is intact. If that proves to be the case, the source of Wednesday’s radiation spike remains a mystery. It seems to have been big enough to force technicians to leave the plant.

Clearly, their presence is crucial to stabilising the reactors – and to control the situation in the dry pool in building 4. If they were forced away for long periods, the chances of containing the crisis would fall. “If water is continuously pumped, they could stabilise the position, because the moment when fuel rods are covered with water, the situation is basically stabilised.” Tepco sounded a rare optimistic note by saying engineers would soon restore an electrical connection from the national grid – which should allow them to re-start water pumps, provided they have not been damaged by the tsunami or the hydrogen explosions.

While this work continues, so do the questions over the building 4 fuel pond. Re-criticality seems an EXTRAORDINARY THING to contemplate; but if it is not a real possibility, why was such an idea floated by the company itself? The bigger picture, though, is still one of a serious local incident, with minor impacts outside the plant. The US Energy Secretary, however, suggested Fukushima was now more serious than the 1979 Three Mile Island incident in the US – and if contamination does spread outside the immediate area, that will prove to be the case.

As Tokyo resorted to increasingly desperate measures to cool overheated reactors at the stricken Fukushima No.1 plant, the embattled Japanese company that operates the facility said today ITS MAIN PRIORITY WAS TO RESTORE POWER at the complex. “We cannot tell when, but we want to restore the power source as soon as possible.”

Construction was to start as soon as today on a new power line to connect to the Fukushima plant’s water pumps so that workers will be able to cool fuel rods by sending seawater into reactor pressure vessels, containment vessels and storage pools of spent fuel. The power system – and its emergency diesel-fueled generators – failed when the tsunami hit, about an hour after the 9.0-magnitude earthquake rocked Japan.

Since then, overheating has caused four hydrogen explosions and two fires at the plant as well as a partial meltdown at the No.1, No.2 and No.3 reactors of the six-reactor facility, located about 155 miles (250km) north-east of Tokyo. “Damage to the cores of the three units – units 1, 2 and 3 – has been confirmed. The cores remain uncovered by one or two metres. Japanese authorities had also reported concerns about the spent nuclear fuel pools of reactors No.3 and No.4. Shortly after, the US Nuclear Regulatory Commission chairman said that the fuel pool at reactor No.4 had run dry, resulting in “extremely high” radiation levels. “What we believe at this time is there has been a hydrogen explosion in this unit due to an uncovering of the fuel in the spent fuel pool,” noting the explosion happened several days ago but its effects were cause for concern. “We believe that secondary containment has been destroyed and there is no water in the spent fuel pool and we believe that radiation levels are extremely high which could possibly impact the ability to take corrective measures.”

The deep pools contain used fuel rods which are extremely radioactive and normally kept immersed in cooling water. Unlike the fuel rods that are used in the reactor vessel, the spent rods are not surrounded by a steel-and-concrete containment vessel. If water in the tanks evaporated, the spent rods would be exposed to the air and radioactive material would be released into the atmosphere. The IAEA said that temperatures in spent fuel pools are typically kept below 77 degrees Fahrenheit (25C), but by yesterday, the temperature in the No.4 reactor’s tank had risen to 183F (84C). Data was not available for today’s temperature. Temperatures in the spent fuel pools at the No.5 and No.6 reactors, which also had not been operating at the time of the twin disasters, had reached at least 140F (60C) by yesterday.

Yesterday, following the cancellation of a helicopter mission to pour water on No.3 reactor due to high radiation levels, a water cannon normally used by riot police arrived at the plant to pump water into the spent fuel pool of No. 4 reactor. Japanese officials planned to use the cannon today.

The US military said it had delivered high-pressure water pumps to Japan to help with the operation at Fukushima and the military was also set to fly one of its drones equipped with infrared sensors over the plant to take pictures so that experts might assess damage.

US soldiers – and now citizens – are not allowed within 50 miles (80km) of the complex based on guidelines issued by the US Nuclear Regulatory Commission. The Pentagon also confirmed some military flight crews were issued with potassium iodide tablets to combat the possible effects of radiation. The Japanese government has thus far only imposed a 12.4-mile (20km) evacuation zone, outside of which Japan’s Chief Cabinet Secretary said radiation levels posed no immediate health threat.

Meanwhile, panic spread on the ground as millions have been left without water, electricity, fuel or enough food. Hundreds of thousands more were left homeless by the devastation and were dealing with freezing cold and wet weather in the northeast region of Japan. Expatriates and foreigners have been leaving Japan amid the crises – some with encouragement from their employers and embassies. Australia, France, Germany, the UK and other nations have told their citizens to consider leaving the greater Tokyo area, while companies such as BMW and Ikea have helped evacuate their employees out of the capital to either their homelands or to other parts of Japan.

Japan’s devastating earthquake and deepening nuclear crisis could result in losses of up to $200 billion for the world’s third largest economy but the global impact remains hard to gauge .

Engineers at Japan’s stricken Fukushima nuclear power plant have managed to lay a cable to reactor 2. Restoring power should enable engineers to restart the pumps which send coolant over the reactor. For a while now it has appeared that delivering electrical power to Fukushima Daiichi power station offered the best hope of stabilising things. Provided that the station’s electrical systems are intact and its pumps are still functional, it should become possible to pump water back into the fuel storage ponds in reactor buildings 3 and 4, and to improve the flow into the damaged reactors themselves. But it is also possible that the earthquake, tsunami, fires and explosions have knocked out some of this equipment. Provided power can be restored across the complex, it appears possible that Fukushima Daiichi COULD BE BACK UNDER CONTROL WITHIN A FEW DAYS.

The cable had reached the site by 1730 local time (0830 GMT) on Thursday, and engineers planned to reconnect power to the reactor once workers have finished spraying seawater over reactor 3. The process of reconnecting power could take up to 15 hours. Helicopters and water cannon have been dumping seawater over the Fukushima reactors, to try to prevent fuel rods melting. Video footage had suggested most of the water had been falling outside the target buildings, but a Tepco spokesman said it appeared the operation had had some success. “When we poured water, we monitored steam rising from the facility. By pouring water, we believe the water turned down the heat. We believe that there was a certain effect.” Another spokesman said on Thursday that aerial observations of reactor 4 indicated it did contain some water. “We have not confirmed how much water was left inside but we have not had information that spent fuel rods are exposed.” Earlier, a senior IAEA official said the situation at Fukushima had not deteriorated, but could yet do so. He described the situation at “reasonably stable”.

Japan has imposed a 20-km (12-mile) exclusion zone around Fukushima and has urged people living up to 30km away to stay indoors. Some countries have advised their nationals in Japan to stay up to 50km away. Tens of thousands of people are still struggling with the after effects of last Friday’s massive quake and tsunami. In areas of the north-east badly hit by the tsunami, bitter winter weather has added to the misery of survivors, though more supplies are now reported to be reaching them. The number of people now known to have died in the twin disaster stands at 5,692 with 9,506 people listed as missing. But the official toll is based on names registered with police, and the true figure could be in the tens of thousands. About 380,000 people are currently still in temporary shelters, many sleeping on the floor of school gymnasiums. Many foreign countries are evacuating their nationals from northeast Japan, or advising them to leave the country entirely.

The crisis has also continued to affect the markets – the benchmark Nikkei index fell 3.6% in early Thursday trading in Tokyo, shortly after the yen briefly hit the highest level against the US dollar since World War II. (map & photos)

A United Nations forecast of the possible movement of the radioactive plume coming from crippled Japanese reactors shows it churning across the Pacific, and touching the Aleutian Islands on Thursday before hitting Southern California late today. Health and nuclear experts emphasize that radiation in the plume will be diluted as it travels and, at worst, would have extremely minor health consequences in the United States, even if hints of it are ultimately detectable. In a similar way, radiation from the Chernobyl disaster in 1986 spread around the globe and reached the West Coast of the United States in 10 days, its levels measurable but minuscule.

The forecast, calculated Tuesday, is based on patterns of Pacific winds at that time and the predicted path is likely to change as weather patterns shift. On Sunday, the United States Nuclear Regulatory Commission said it expected that no “harmful levels of radioactivity” would travel from Japan to the United States “given the thousands of miles between the two countries.” The test ban treaty group routinely does radiation projections in an effort to understand which of its global stations to activate for monitoring the worldwide ban on nuclear arms testing. It has more than 60 stations that sniff the air for radiation spikes and uses weather forecasts and powerful computers to model the transport of radiation on the winds.

On Wednesday, the agency declined to release its Japanese forecast, which The New York Times obtained from other sources. The forecast was distributed widely to the agency’s member states.

But in interviews, the technical specialists of the agency did address how and why the forecast had been drawn up. “It’s simply an indication. We have global coverage. So when something happens, it’s important for us to know which station can pick up the event.” The Japan forecast shows that the radioactive plume will probably miss the agency’s monitoring stations at Midway and in the Hawaiian Islands but is likely to be detected in the Aleutians and at a monitoring station in Sacramento.

The forecast assumes that radioactivity in Japan is released continuously and forms a rising plume. It ends with the plume heading into Southern California and the American Southwest, including Nevada, Utah and Arizona. The plume projection would have continued eastward if the United Nations scientists had run the projection forward. Earlier this week, the leading edge of the tangible plume was detected by the Navy’s Seventh Fleet when it was operating about 100 miles northeast of the Japanese reactor complex. On Monday, the Navy said it had repositioned its ships and aircraft off Japan “as a precautionary measure.” The United Nations agency has also detected radiation from the stricken reactor complex at its detector station in Gunma, Japan, which lies about 130 miles to the southwest.

Would the meltdown of a core of one of the reactors increase the chance of harmful radiation reaching Hawaii or the West Coast? “I don’t want to speculate on various scenarios. But based on the design and the distances involved, it is very unlikely that there would be any harmful impacts.”

The likely path of the main Japanese plume across the Pacific has also caught the attention of Europeans, many of whom recall how the much closer Chernobyl reactor in Ukraine began spewing radiation. In Germany on Wednesday, the Federal Office for Radiation Protection held a news conference that described the threat from the Japanese plume as trifling and said there was no need for people to take iodine tablets. The pills can prevent poisoning from the atmospheric release of iodine-131, a radioactive byproduct of nuclear plants. The United States is also carefully monitoring and forecasting the plume’s movements. The agencies include the Federal Aviation Administration, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, the Department of Defense, and the Department of Energy.

With Quest to Cool Fuel Rods Stumbling, U.S. Sees ‘Weeks’ of Struggle – The Japanese efforts focused on a different part of the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station from the reactor — No. 4 — depicted in Washington on Wednesday as presenting a far bleaker threat than the Japanese government had offered. The decision to focus on the No. 3 reactor appeared to suggest that Japanese officials believe it is a greater threat, since it is the only one at the site loaded with a mixed fuel known as mox, for mixed oxide, which includes reclaimed plutonium. Western nuclear engineers have said that the release of mox into the atmosphere would produce a more dangerous radioactive plume than the dispersal of uranium fuel rods at the site. The Japanese authorities also expressed concern on Wednesday that the pressure in the No. 3 reactor had plunged and that either gauges were malfunctioning or a rupture had already occurred. The reactor typically needs 50 tons of water, or about 12,000 gallons, a day to keep from overheating.

Radiation of about 250 millisievert an hour had been detected 100 feet above the plant. In the United States, the once-in-a-lifetime exposure limit for police officers, firefighters and other emergency workers engaged in life-saving activity is equal to being exposed to 250 millisieverts for a full hour.

While radiation levels at the plant have varied tremendously, the peak levels reported there “would be lethal within a fairly short period of time.”

While maps of the plume of radiation being given off by the plant show that an elongated cloud will stretch across the Pacific, American officials said it would be so dissipated by the time it reached the West Coast of the United States that it would not pose a health threat. Close to the site, however, “we would recommend an evacuation to a much larger radius than has currently been provided by Japan.” That assessment seems bound to embarrass, if not anger, Japanese officials, suggesting they have miscalculated the danger or deliberately played down the risks.

American officials who have been dealing with their Japanese counterparts report that the country’s political and bureaucratic leadership has appeared frozen in place, unwilling to communicate clearly about the problem’s scope and, in some cases, unwilling to accept outside assistance. Two American officials said they believed that the Japanese government itself was not getting a clear picture from Tokyo Electric.

Don’t be a Fool, Nor Walk in Darkness

By Regina

As reports of calamities, bird and fish deaths, earthquakes, floods, virus and disease outbreaks and more, continue to dominate the news, many are searching for answers and providing explanations.

Almost all, do not understand the simple concept of our God, Yahweh, and His nature. So when they say that these are “natural occurrences” they are both right and very wrong. Right in that yes, they are natural occurrences, but wrong in that they are nothing but the evolving process of the planet we live on.

What is important to understand is that Yahweh is the source of life for all things and in turn, provides the source of life, via nature, for all things. Whether it be in the Spirit Realm or the Physical Realm, it is His energy that we draw upon to live.

In the Spirit Realm, it is the abundance of higher vibrating raw energy and in the Physical Realm, it is the abundance of energy in different forms, lower vibrating energy in the forms of water and food – nature itself – on which we depend. But ultimately, we depend on Yahweh for it all and it all rightfully belongs to Yahweh because He is the energy source from which all things come.

Ecclesiastes 2:14 The wise man has eyes in his head, but the fool walks in darkness. Yet I also knew that one fate comes to them both.

Definition of the word Fool: a silly or stupid person; a person who lacks judgment or sense, and, a person who has been tricked or deceived into appearing or acting silly or stupid.

It is foolish behavior to deny, ignore or dismiss the warnings that come from Yahweh, who disciplines His children and righteously judges them as well. It is equally foolish to deny, ignore or dismiss our Creator, Yahweh, whom we depend upon for our very lives. To do so, is to walk in darkness.

Hebrews 12:9 Furthermore, we had natural fathers discipline us, and we respected them. Shouldn’t we submit even more to the Father of spirits and live?

Another Earthquake, Another Sign

By Deborah

Psalm 99:1 [ The King Is Holy ] The LORD reigns! Let the peoples tremble. He is enthroned above the cherubim. Let the earth quake.

This week saw another visible sign of Yahweh’s anger being poured out upon this world of Satan’s. Many will say that the conditions that brought about the tsunami and earthquake in Japan were caused by natural occurrences. Earth changes. Solar flares. Moon proximity. They continue to reject the One who IS nature. The One who created the heavens and the earth. They continue to deny Her awesome power. And they continue to believe that THEY hold the answers and the solutions to any and all obstacles in their path rather than turning God in humility and obedience.

Isaiah 34:1 [ The Judgment of the Nations ] You nations, come here and listen; you peoples, pay attention! Let the earth hear, and all that fills it, the world and all that comes from it.

Romans 1:25 They exchanged the truth of God for a lie, and worshiped and served something created instead of the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen.

Ezekiel 3:11 Go to your people, the exiles, and speak to them. Tell them: This is what the Lord GOD says, whether they listen or refuse [to listen].”

Jeremiah 6:19 Listen, earth! I am about to bring disaster on these people, the fruit of their own plotting, for they have paid no attention to My word. They have rejected My law.

Jeremiah 25:31 The tumult reaches to the ends of the earth because the LORD brings a case against the nations. He enters into judgment with all flesh. As for the wicked, He hands them over to the sword [This is] the LORD’s declaration.

It is wise to take heed of these warning signs.

Zephaniah 2:1-3

A Call to Repentance

1 Gather yourselves together;

gather together, undesirable nation,

2 before the decree takes effect

and the day passes like chaff,

before the burning of the LORD’s anger overtakes you,

before the day of the LORD’s anger overtakes you.

3 Seek the LORD, all you humble of the earth,

who carry out what He commands.

Seek righteousness, seek humility;

perhaps you will be concealed

on the day of the LORD’s anger.

We would like to announce the arrival of Book Two, the continuation of Chosen: End Times Truths Revealed.

Book Two starts where the first book left off and includes accounts from ministers Regina, Johanna, Deborah, and Elisha describing their individual journeys and experiences in their service to Yahweh and Christ over the past several years in autobiographical form.

It is available in .pdf form for free via www.chosen.weebly.com and will be updated monthly.

The Journey Continues

Below is a sneak-peek of each of the books included in Chosen, Book Two

Regina

There are many days in which I feel as though I must stop and focus and just try to get through the next 24 hours, some days even just the next hour, and then that day passes and the next arrives and passes, and arrives until all of a sudden a year has passed, and then two and four and now five. It’s odd how time can seem to pass so slowly and quickly at the same time. Many of these days, the good and the not-so-good, I will recount here and many have receded to the deeper recesses of my mind but what I’m able to remember, I share with you here honestly and openly…
Johanna

On October 2nd or 3rd of 2005, I was on this website were there were camera’s placed through out peoples homes who claimed that they were being haunted. I have always liked supernatural things. I believed in ghost, angels and demons. I started talking to this woman and asked her how she see’s the things that she does. I also told her that I believed in spirit guides. She told me that she couldn’t help me with the guides but that she knew of a website where I could find some answers. She sent me the link to a forum by the name of “Beyond This World”. After looking at a few things and noticing that they had psychic exercises I decided to sign up to become a member…

Deborah

Word came to us toward the end of May 2010 that we were to begin documenting our experiences ending where Chosen left off. Each Minister is to produce a “book” of our own that will be incorporated into Chosen. Its a little daunting to say the least. I have not been journaling as Regina has been (it isn’t something I naturally do). Also, I actually do not have a very good memory. But I trust that those things that Father wishes us to recall we will. We have been guided by Michael to read the book of ACTS to guide us. It seems to focus on events that show times of strong guidance from/interactions with Holy Spirit…

Elisha

In 2006, I was able to reconnect with a long time friend. I found out she had co-authored a book. Considering how we had grown up together I was interested in the fact that she had written one and wanted to read it myself. She, Regina, sent me the book and some more details about it. I found out it was a lot to take in and did so in baby steps with much prayer and guidance from Father. I was blessed to freely ask any question of Regina and felt comfortable in doing so. I read the book with an open mind and while some of it confirmed my deepest suspicions other information provided was such an eye-opener…

1/8/11 Tunguska Event

Joe: Symbolic of Satan’s fall into the dark pit, The USA follows in its benefactor’s path to desolation by falling into the pit of financial and corrupt oblivion. A three part fall. Whereas as the 2nd part, the USA is falling apart in not only its constructions of bridges and other aged and outdated past achievements, but is also in the 3rd part, its moral decline. All leads to the pit of agony. Step by step Yahweh is leading the past leader to its great fall, just like that of Satan’s fall from the heavenly court. When Satan and his demons were ousted and went into the free fall to this planet in 1908, they could not stop the fall nor prevent the continued degradation that comes with losing face and an exalted position. In addition, Satan lost his past wealth he had possessed in heaven. It went down with his status. His powers being curtailed represented his corruption like that of the structures aged out in this dying world of mankind. His lack of morals contributed to this demise from the power structure he was once a valued part of.

1/17/11 The 5th Bowl

Joe: The Fifth Bowl ” 10 The fifth poured out his bowl on the throne of the beast, and his kingdom was plunged into darkness. People gnawed their tongues from pain and blasphemed the God of heaven because of their pains and their sores, yet the…y did not repent of their actions.”

The “5″ that keeps occurring in casts represents the 5th bowl. Satan’s kingdom consists of all nations on earth, but his beast is the USA. Satan’s throne is located in the USA, and so the beast shares that throne by virtue of Satan having passed power to his prized beast.

Can Satan hold his present position on the war chess board, or will he be forced to abandon this beast for the European Union? Time will tell.

Can the USA overcome Yahweh’s assault on its financial stability with so much destruction slated for the country by Yahweh’s mighty right hand as He continues to make war with the beast by use of His natural order’s arsenal? But can Satan shift the tide in his beast’s favor? Satan is clever, and he is being aided by another strong ally whom has moved over to his side on the war board. Again, time will reveal the outcome.

Revelation 13:2 (Holman Christian Standard Bible) 2 The beast I saw was like a leopard, his feet were like a bear’s, and his mouth was like a lion’s mouth. The dragon gave him his power, his throne, and great authority.

Revelation 13:3 (HCSB) 3 One of his heads appeared to be fatally wounded, but his fatal wound was healed. The whole earth was amazed and followed the beast.

When the United States sent in Air Force Commando’s in the war against the Taliban, the Northern Alliance whom was aiding them noted the laser technology used to hone in on and take out targets with devastatingly accurate smart bombs. One Afghan Alliance member stated, “Who can successfully make war against a power that rains fire down from the sky?’ The beast is the most powerful military force on this planet. Thanks to all knowledge passed to them by the dragon.

Revelation 13:13 He also performs great signs, even causing fire to come down from heaven to earth before people.

How long will the USA unemployed workers numbering in the millions remain docile, before unrest becomes a reality and the beast is forced to declare marshal law? 2011 will tell the story.

Cordelia: Joe, can you reveal the strong ally whom has moved over to Satan’s side on the war board?

Joe: The strong ally is one that shares both the spirit realm and the visible realm. They are from a distant place in the universe, and they are coming to the earth in space crafts to help Satan and his children against Yahweh’s holy… forces. They have become traitors to the Throne of Yahweh by questioning the law given by the Prophets to the point of rebellion.

Jeremiah 47:3-5 (Holman Christian Standard Bible) “At the sound of the stomping hooves of his stallions, the rumbling of his chariots,

and the clatter of their wheels,

fathers will not turn back for their sons,

because they will be utterly helpless

on account of the day that is coming

to destroy all the Philistines,

to cut off from Tyre and Sidon

every remaining ally.

Indeed, the LORD is about to destroy the Philistines,

the remnant of the islands of Caphtor.

Baldness is coming to Gaza.

Ashkelon will become silent,

a remnant of their valley.

How long will you gash yourself?”

Psalm 94:20 “Can a corrupt throne— one that creates trouble by law— become Your ally?”

Romans 3:20-22 (Holman Christian Standard Bible) “For no flesh will be justified in His sight by the works of the law, for through the law [comes] the knowledge of sin.”

God’s Righteousness through Faith

But now, apart from the law, God’s righteousness has been revealed —attested by the Law and the Prophets —that is, God’s righteousness through faith in Jesus Christ, (F) [to all who believe, since there is no distinction. “

The Ashkelon’s from the Ash Constellation argued that they have lived faithfully under law of “the Way” and should not be lumped in with Mankind’s Debacle. But because they are expected to be under Christ’s headship over creation as if they to had sinned, they protested and pulled away to join Satan’s side of the Sovereignty issue. The Ashkelon’s have been arguing this issue since Dawn Lucifer’s and mankind’s fall. It finally came to a head in these end times.

(JewishEncyclopedia.com – CONSTELLATIONS: “‘Ash.” Pleiades. Clusters of stars. The number of constellations named in the Biblical … According to Schrader (Schenkel, “Bibel-Lexikon,” v. 398), the constellation of the Dragon is …

2/21/11 Would you like to end this spiritual war early?

If you march in protest of something, make it count for what is most important. Demand that your governments surrender to Yahweh’s LOZ and accept the incoming governmental rule of Christ Jesus. Any government that publicly acknowledges Christ as the Sovereign King over Yahweh’s creation will be spared from the coming wrath.

Although the compliance will end that governmental rule, it will represent a stepping stone for the other nations to follow suit, and could result in a more peaceful transition. It is because hearts are not directed to Yahweh that She must destroy those resisting, but that is not what She desires. She wants all to gain Salvation. It is possible to alter this world of peoples date with extermination if each person wakes up to what is just ahead if they do not. As Yahweh once spared a city in ancient times from Her wrath because they relented and turned their hearts to Her, it can happen on a worldwide scale in these end times. If the people worldwide turn to Christ in TRUTH, you can alter the punishment phase to be meted out – only to the remaining few human resisters and Satan’s spiritual allies.

1/30/11

Cordelia: Are the two (on the left and right) the same? Nice cast of Mother with her outstretched arm. E stands for Energy, right?

Joe: Yes child, they are the same. Casts set in the stars of the heavens for all to view. And yes. the E is the symbol for Energy, because energy is the universal fuel of both realms.

Regina: It looks like there’s another figure at the hand of the outstretched arm – reminds me of having an errant child “by the ear”.

Joe: Yes, the one cast at Her hand is the child She personally birthed into creation. It means Her great hand is upon Her Son., i.e., his energy is powered by or is a product of Her existence. She keeps a stern hold on him to guide his path on the divine course She has plotted within Her mind. Like any mother that takes a child by the ear in giving strict discipline to adhere to her commands or instructions along with physical discomfort that encourages obedience.

Cordelia: Very nice cast of Mother and Christ! Now that I know trinity is false, really can’t wait for Christ’s Kingdom to be established. Our King can relate to us more than we think. Christ is a Mighty God but He has to walk the straight and narrow path as well.

NEW ZEALAND - More aftershocks from Christchurch’s big quake have again rattled the devastated city, the strongest measuring 4.8.

Bleak future for Christchurch as population flees - After the deadly earthquake left homes creaking and wiped out buildings and jobs, thousands of residents have turned their back on Christchurch, raising questions over the city’s future. City officials estimate one-sixth of Christchurch’s 390,000 population – some 65,000 people – have fled New Zealand’s second city, terrified by incessant aftershocks or because their workplace has been affected. The key question is how many of those departures will prove to be permanent.

Estimates are that the tremor – that killed at least 166 people – destroyed one-third of the buildings in central Christchurch and left 10,000 people homeless. It could be months before parts of the city reopen, and though the government has underwritten all employees’ wages for six weeks in a bid to protect jobs, prospects for the CBD’s 52,000 workers are uncertain. “I know already that populations in other towns in the South Island have risen exponentially as people from here who have the ability to or have a holiday home or have a contact relocate. They need to make arrangements for their children’s education, they need some sort of permanence.” Hundreds of Canterbury University students are being shipped to Australia to finish their studies while thousands of schoolchildren have enrolled elsewhere, some as far away as Auckland, after some local schools warned they could be closed for a year.

The quake has left city businesses scrambling for office space in the suburbs, setting up in warehouses and homes. Some companies had moved their servers into bunkers after the earlier quake, meaning staff can log in from home while the city remains in lockdown, but others have lost everything. Meanwhile tens of thousands of residences are still without power or water, and a quarter of all homes will need some sort of repair work. About 10,000 will need to be demolished — entire streets in some suburbs — and the rush is on to find parks and other land for temporary housing before the punishing southern winter sets in. Cruise ships are even being considered to accommodate the residents of Lyttelton, epicentre of the violent quake. But many have been scarred by their experience and simply want out. “I’m sick of having earthquakes every day. In the centre right where we live we feel them a lot.” Redundancies have begun in earnest, with at least one major supermarket chain joining scores of small businesses in refusing to reopen its doors, costing hundreds of jobs at two stores alone. The devastation in Christchurch, which accounts for some 15 percent of New Zealand’s economy, has been estimated at NZ$16 billion ($12 billion), with officials warning it could send the country into recession.

But while the exodus is undeniable, experts believe it will only be temporary, with the city’s location in Canterbury’s rich farming heartland and proximity to the major port of Lyttelton still strong drawcards for business.

PHILIPPINES – Series of quakes trigger brownouts in Surigao. A series of earthquakes hit Mindanao from early afternoon of Thursday until the early hours of Friday with the strongest, an intensity 5.7 earthquake, rocking Surigao City shortly before midnight of Thursday causing power outages in some parts of the city and the towns of Cantilan and Carrascal in Surigao del Sur. The quake caused residents of Surigao City to run out of their homes and panic among farm animals. No casualty was reported immediately after the quakes. Another temblor of magnitude 3.9 occurred at 5:27 p.m. with its epicenter located at 54 kilometers northwest of Tandag, Surigao del Sur, with a depth of one kilometer. At 5:41 p.m. Thursday, a magnitude 4.1 quake occurred with epicenter located at 23 kilometers southeast of Jabonga, Agusan Del Norte, at a depth of 18 kilometers. A magnitude 5.6 quake occurred at 8:52 p.m. Thursday with its epicenter at 240 kilometers southeast of General Santos City at a depth of 60 kilometers. At 10:27 p.m. Thursday another earthquake was recorded at magnitude 3.3 with epicenter located at 12 kilometers northeast of Carrascal, Surigao Del Sur, at a depth of one kilometer.Several mild quakes were also recorded in the early hours of morning of Friday. The quake damaged power lines causing power outages in several areas covered by the Surigao Del Norte Electric Cooperative.

7.2 earthquake hits off coast of Japan – A tsunami advisory has been issued in Japan after a 7.2 magnitude earthquake struck off the coast of Japan’s main island of Honshu. The quake was centered 169 kilometers (105 miles) off the east coast of Honshu, directly east of the city of Sendai. The quake occurred about 8.8 miles below the earth’s surface. The expected height of the tsunami was only expected to be 0.5 meters (19.6 inches). They could feel the earthquake in Tokyo, 267 miles southwest of the quake’s epicenter, and the shaking lasted as long as three minutes, but there was no significant damage. TV Asahi showed video of boats rocking back and forth, as well as images taken from shaken city cams as the earthquake hit.

NEW ZEALAND - 10,000 homes in Christchurch will have to be demolished after force of quake ‘liquified’ ground underneath city. Parts of Christchurch will have to be abandoned and modular housing brought in for those left homeless. Parts of the city, on New Zealand’s south island, will have to be abandoned altogether after the magnitude 6.3 quake caused massive structural damage.

The epicentre of the quake struck within three miles of the city and close to the surface on February 22.

Earthquakes can cause sections of earth to liquefy and push up to the surface as watery silt, a process known as liquefaction. In Christchurch, 260,000 tons of silt have already been scraped away. ‘There are some parts of Christchurch that can’t be rebuilt on. The liquefaction damage from the… earthquake is so great and the land damage… is so significant we can’t remediate it.’ Several hundred central city commercial buildings will have to be bulldozed. ‘Potentially there are some… areas of Christchurch which will need to be abandoned and we will have to provide other alternatives for people to live in because the land has been so badly damaged we can’t fix it – certainly not in a reasonable time frame.’ Modular houses will be brought in to provide temporary accommodation for some of the many thousands left homeless, many of whom will have to abandon their shattered homes and land. Almost all electricity supplies have been restored, but residents are being told to boil tap water because of the risk of contamination. Some 70,000 people – one-fifth of the city’s population – have left as a result of the quake.

JAPAN – A major 7.2-magnitude offshore earthquake rattled Japan on Wednesday, swaying Tokyo buildings, triggering a small tsunami and reminding the nation of the ever-present threat of seismic disaster. Police reported no casualties or property damage, and operators of nuclear power plants and Shinkansen bullet trains quickly gave the all-clear, while the wave hitting the Pacific coast measured just 60 centimetres (24 inches).

The tremor struck in the late morning about 160 kilometres (100 miles) offshore and 430 kilometres northeast of Tokyo, at a shallow depth of 10 kilometres below the Pacific seafloor. In greater Tokyo — the world’s most populous urban area with more than 30 million people — the earthquake and a succession of tremors that quickly followed were uncomfortably felt as they shook buildings. Television channels immediately cancelled their programming to transmit information on the quake and a coastal tsunami advisory.

It soon became clear the quake had left Japan unscathed, but it was yet another uncomfortable reminder that the threat of “the Big One” is a reality of daily life. Japan, is located on the “Pacific Ring of Fire” and dotted with volcanoes, and Tokyo is situated in one of its most dangerous areas. The mega-city sits on the intersection of three continental plates — the Eurasian, Pacific and Philippine Sea plates — which are slowly grinding against each other, building up enormous seismic pressure. The government’s Earthquake Research Committee warns of a 70 percent chance that a great, magnitude-eight quake will strike within the next 30 years in the Kanto plains, home to Tokyo’s vast urban sprawl.

The last time a “Big One” hit Tokyo was in 1923, when the Great Kanto Earthquake claimed more than 140,000 lives, many of them in fires. In 1855, the Ansei Edo quake also devastated the city. More recently, the 1995 Kobe earthquake killed more then 6,400 people. Families are urged to keep quake survival kits at home, quake alerts can be sent via mobile phones and parks and schools are sign-posted as quake shelters. Nuclear power plants and bullet trains are designed to automatically shut down when the earth rumbles and many buildings have been quake-proofed with steel and ferro-concrete at great cost in recent decades.

JAPAN – A series of powerful aftershocks shook the eastern coast of Japan early Thursday, briefly triggering a tsunami alert, in the wake of a strong earthquake that hit a day earlier. There were no immediate reports of damage or injuries from the quakes. Thursday’s quakes were likely aftershocks from a 7.3 magnitude earthquake that hit in the same area Wednesday, shaking buildings hundreds of miles (kilometers) away in Tokyo and triggering a small tsunami.

The series of aftershocks included a magnitude 6.8 temblor that struck at 6:24 a.m. local time, and a magnitude 6.1 earthquake about three hours earlier. A tsunami alert was issued after the stronger of the two in Fukushima Prefecture in central Japan, but it was lifted a short time later. All of the earthquakes were centered in an area about 90 miles (150 kilometers) off Japan’s northeastern coast, about 270 miles (440 kilometers) northeast of Tokyo. They struck at depths of between 5 and 6 miles (8 and 10 kilometers).

NEW ZEALAND – ‘Serious’ risk of landslides in quake zone. GNS Science says there is still a real risk of landslides in Christchurch’s hillside suburbs. Experts are examining a number of issues in the hills – including horizontal and vertical cracks. The restoration of water to some areas is also causing problems. “Because the water mains are broken, water has been leaking into landslides and further destabilising them. We’ve already come across this situation, we’re asking for the water to be turned off again because it’s increasing the risk of a landslide falling catastrophically.” Properties in the Port Hills area were being inspected yesterday after around 200 houses were evacuated following the earthquake. Some residents could be out of their homes for months.

Meanwhile, the government said it is confident there is enough safe land for Christchurch residents to be housed on temporarily. “We believe so at this stage to meet what we foresee the demand to be in the next month, but demand will increase over time, we know that. And then it will peak as people move in and use the accommodation and move out and free it up for others.”

ARKANSAS – Geologists say a fault in central Arkansas where hundreds of earthquakes have been recorded in recent months is LONGER AND POTENTIALLY MORE DESTRUCTIVE than initially believed. Scientists had thought the fault is 3.7 miles long. Now they estimate it to be 6 to 7.5 miles long. The length is a concern because a longer fault could trigger bigger earthquakes. More than 800 earthquakes have been recorded in the area in the past six months — including a 4.7 magnitude quake on Feb. 27 that was the largest earthquake recorded in Arkansas in 35 years. Injection wells used by companies drilling for natural gas and thought to be connected to the quakes have been temporarily shut down.

The Pacific Tsunami Warning Center in Hawaii has widened its tsunami warning to include most of the Pacific Ocean region, including South America. The warning issued Thursday at 0730 GMT follows a massive 8.9 earthquake that has struck off the northeastern coast of Japan. It includes Russia, the Philippines, Papua New Guinea, Hawaii, Australia, New Zealand, and the Pacific coast of South America, including Mexico, Chile and Peru.

In Guam, authorities are urging those residing along coastlines to seek high ground after a tsunami warning was issued for the U.S. territory. The agency says that people are advised to evacuate low areas and seek ground higher than 50 feet above sea level and 100 feet inland. The agency says the tsunami is expected to hit in about 14 hours or 7 a.m. Saturday. The U.S. territory of the Northern Marians Islands was also under the warning.

In the Philippines, thousands of residents near the country’s eastern coast have been ordered to evacuate amid the tsunami warning. The first wave of the tsunami was expected to hit the eastern coast between 5 pm and 7 pm (0900-1100 GMT).The expected tsunami was projected to be 1 meter high. “All residents in coastal areas facing the Pacific should evacuate now. We will announce when it’s safe to return home.”

The tsunami could cause damage “along coastlines of all islands in the state of Hawaii, “ warned the U.S. National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration in a bulletin issued at 9:31 p.m. Thursday local Hawaiian time. “Urgent action should be taken to protect lives and property.” Tsunamis are a series of long ocean waves that can last five to 15 minutes and cause extensive flooding in coastal areas. A succession of waves can hit – often the first NOT being the highest.

The 8.9-magnitude Japan earthquake is the largest earthquake since the 9.0 earthquake struck the Banda Aceh area of Indonesia on December 26, 2004, causing a massive tsunami that killed tens of thousands in more than a dozen countries around the Indian Ocean. Tsunami waves can travel at speeds of 800 kilometers (497 miles) per hour. The earthquake, initially reported as a 7.8 earthquake, was upgraded to an 8.8 quake. “When you jump a magnitude from 7 to 8, it’s not 10 times stronger, it’s a 1000 times stronger. With an 8.8 earthquake that shallow, that close to shore, THERE WILL BE MORE THAN ONE TSUNAMI.”

“You could tell this was different, instantly … you literally couldn’t stand on your feet the ground was shaking so hard,” said a man who lives on the west side of Tokyo. “We have earthquakes from time to time, but we never feel anything like the literal magnitude of this quake.”

Raw video footage of Japanese tsunami

Massive 8.9-magnitude quake strikes Japan – Tsunami washes away cars, buildings in Fukushima. A massive 8.9-magnitude earthquake struck off Japan’s northeastern coast Friday afternoon, shaking buildings in Tokyo for several minutes and sending people out into the streets. Japanese television showed major tsunami damage in northern Japan on Friday. Public broadcaster NHK showed cars, trucks, houses and buildings being swept away by tsunami in Onahama city in Fukushima prefecture. A tsunami warning was in effect for Japan, Russia, Marcus Island and the Northern Marianas. A tsunami watch has been issued for Guam, Taiwan, the Philippines, Indonesia and Hawaii.

The quake struck at 2:46 p.m. Friday at a depth of 6 miles (10 kilometers), about 80 miles (125 kilometers) off the eastern coast, about 240 miles northeast of Tokyo. In downtown Tokyo, large buildings shook violently and workers poured into the street for safety. TV footage showed a large building on fire and bellowing smoke in the Odaiba district of Tokyo. Footage on national broadcaster NHK from their Sendai office showed employees stumbling around and books and papers crashing from desks. Police and coast guard officials said they were assessing possible damage from the quake. Several quakes had hit the same region in recent days, including a 7.3 magnitude temblor on Wednesday.

A shockwave from an X-Class flare hit the earth during a 24 hour window of when Japan was hit by the quake. There have been connections to heightened solar activity being one of the many possible triggers of earthquakes. One meteorologist has studied geomagnetic field patterns in space weather since the early 2000s. “I may just be a weather guy, but solar weather has had my interest for years when I noticed the connection. Many past quakes have been connected with solar flare events, including other events such as Gamma Ray Bursts, or GRBs. I am pretty certain these have connections to triggering earthquakes, however I do not yet understand it. Japan’s activity may not have happened if it was not for the solar flare activity. Others in weather laughed at me for years for what I worked on in quake triggers, however this just may help put that to rest”.

Japan’s Earthquake Research Committee had warned of a 70%chance that a great, magnitude-eight quake would strike Tokyo within the next 30 years.

JAPAN - At 8.9 on the Richter scale, today’s quake is bigger than the 1995 Kobe earthquake (6.9) in which more than 5,000 people died. It is the LARGEST EARTHQUAKE IN 7 YEARS IN THE WORLD. The BIGGEST QUAKE IN THE REGION IN 140 YEARS. The quake has hit the north-west of Japan, triggering a four-metre tsunami that sent ships and cars crashing into coastal towns. Aftershocks were continuing on Friday, an hour after the quake hit. The quake struck 370 km from Tokyo at a depth of 24 km. It was felt as far away as Beijing. It has prompted tsunami warnings around the Pacific. Tsunami warnings has been issued for the Philippines, the Marshall Islands, Russia, Taiwan, Guam Island, Micronesia, Hawai , the Mariana Islands, Papua New Guinea, the Kuril Islands, Indonesia and Nauru.Officials are warning the tsunami could reach 10 metres high. Waves have hit Tokyo. Numerous injuries have been reported by police in Japan’s Miyagi prefecture and there is widespread flooding in the area. The quake triggered at least six fires in Tokyo. Many were injured after a roof caved in during a school graduation ceremony at a hall in east Tokyo.

CHINA – rescuers search town after quake kills 25. Rescuers in southwest China battled rolling aftershocks Friday as they scoured toppled buildings for survivors of an earthquake that killed 25 people and injured 250 near the country’s border with Myanmar. The earthquake that struck Yunnan province’s mountainous Yingjiang county around midday Thursday caused more than 1,000 houses and apartment buildings, and parts of a supermarket and a hotel to buckle and fall. More than 127,000 of the county’s 300,000 people have been displaced by the temblor, which Chinese authorities measured at a magnitude 5.8.

Police, firefighters and soldiers rushed to the area to pull out people trapped in the rubble, including a man and girl stuck in the stairwell of a four-story building. Rescuers with sniffer dogs searched through the night. The chances of finding more people alive was shrinking. Many of the buildings in the area were not built to resist earthquakes and fell easily. Survivors spent the night in tents while seven aftershocks measuring up to 4.7 in magnitude shook the town, state media reported. CCTV showed people eating meals cooked in large pots over portable stoves in the morning next to tents set up in a public square. 25 people have been killed, while another 250 people were injured, 134 of them seriously. The mountainous area is 1,500 miles (2,400 kilometers) southwest of Beijing, close to the border with Myanmar, and is home to many ethnic groups on both sides of the border, which sees heavy traffic in people and goods. The quake-prone region has been hit by more than 1,000 minor tremors over the past two months.

There was no word Friday from authorities across the border in Myanmar. The Myanmar Meteorological Department released a statement Thursday saying a quake had hit some 230 miles (370 kilometers) northeast of Mandalay. The statement did not mention injuries or damage. Authorities in the tightly ruled country tend not to immediately discuss the effects of natural disasters. Much of the area on the Myanmar side has been under the control of various armed ethnic groups, who have battled the Myanmar military to remain free from central government control.

VOLCANOES -

HAWAII - Kilauea Volcano has been a relatively peaceful spectacle on Hawaii Island, allowing tourists and scientists to get close to the geological show with minimal danger. But Hawaiian Volcano Observatory scientists believe Kilauea may be giving everyone the wrong impression. During a deadly eruption in 1790, searing hot ash and gas suddenly exploded out of the volcano, killing many. It is likely that the blast took 80 lives simultaneously, although it is possible that several hundred died. That death toll makes Kilauea THE DEADLIEST KNOWN VOLCANO IN THE U.S.
