The only explanation is as the pole-shift accelerates here on Earth, a similar shift is occuring on the sun. The suns magnetism must be intrinsically linked to our own.

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 21682593 Your use of the dreaded "T" word is noted: "On October 12, 1913 Wilson signed the bill that was the beginning of the end of the unique American middle class, long the target of the Fabian Socialists." "Even more astonishing was the acceptance of the Federal Income Tax Act that was passed on September 5, 1913, to replace trade tariffs as the source of revenue for the Federal Government. Income Tax is a Marxist doctrine not found in the U.S. Constitution anymore than the Federal Reserve Bank is found in the Constitution. Wilson called his twin blows against the Constitution, “a fight for the people, and for free business,” and said he was proud to have taken “part in the completion of a great piece of business…” The Federal Reserve Act, explained by Wilson as “reconstructing the Nation's banking and currency system” was rushed through on a flood-tide of propaganda emanating from Wellington House, just in time for the hostilities that began the horror of WWI." [link to robertscourt.blogspot.com] "Elite planners designed Sept. 11 for its shock value. In the aftermath, they were able to impose a security crackdown, a costly military build-up and a war in Afghanistan and Iraq on a stunned population. Keith cites another Tavis----- tock researcher Dr. William Sargent author of "Battle for the Mind: A Physiology of Conversion and Brain-Washing" (1957): "Various types of beliefs can be implanted after brain function has been sufficiently disturbed by ...deliberately induced fear, anger or excitement." This blueprint was laid out long before Sept. 11, 2001. The official story of that tragedy doesn't bear scrutiny there was no wreckage at the Pentagon. All three buildings were demolished by explosives. Our "leaders" are accomplices to the murder of over 3000 Americans and the destruction of an American icon. The plan is to fold the US into a "world government" controlled by London-based central bankers. Our cultural, economic and political elite is complicit in the ongoing cover up. Much of this secret planning can be found in Eugenics books coming out of England, as this science behind the Nazi movement originated with them and is the elite's one unifying force around the world." |

The flashes, booms, combustion of electric poles etc have to be puzzling to our scientist as well. At some point we'll have a critical mass of people observing these phenomina.

Anonymous Coward User ID: 1092499 United States 12/07/2012 04:40 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Texas News Mysterious bright flash in sky reported across Texas Credit: KHOU KHOU 11 News viewer Mary Bush, in the Houston area, took this photo about two minutes after the flash. by MARJORIE OWENS WFAA Posted on December 7, 2012 at 8:34 AM Updated today at 2:29 PM DALLAS - From McKinney to the White Rock Lake area and all the way south to Houston, a bright flash reported in the sky Friday morning captured the attention of many across the Lone Star State. While early reports indicated it was likely a meteor, the National Weather Service in Houston reported Friday afternoon that it may have been debris from the Russian Satellite Cosmos 2251 as it reentered the atmosphere. In 2009, the Cosmos 2251 satellite, which was not in working condition at the time, collided with Iridium 33, a United States communication satellite, in 2009 as they orbited Earth over Siberia. Meanwhile, Bill Cooke, who heads the Meteoroid Environment Office for NASA, told KRLD that the object was actually a meteor, and was likely the size of a basketball. As researchers continue to investigate the source of the flash, reports of sightings continue to grow across Texas. One McKinney woman reported seeing what appeared to be a comet streaking across the sky in a bright flash around 6:42 a.m. near Stonebridge Shopping Center. Justin Wagoner, who lives in the White Rock Lake area, said he saw a green trail and heard a large "sonic boom" around the same time. Others reported seeing white and orange colors. The sight only lasted a few seconds before vanishing in the sky. According to Dr. James Roberts, a University of North Texas astronomer who talked to WBAP early Friday morning, the mysterious object in the sky was likely a burned up meteor. A KHOU meteorologist in Houston said it may have been part of the Geminids meteor shower, which takes place in December. The meteorites often appear to be slow moving and are usually best seen at its peak on December 13 and 14. However, Mike Hankey, the operations manager with the American Meteor Society, said later in the morning he believed the meteor was likely a fireball, a meteor brighter than Venus, and not a part of the Geminid shower. "For those not familiar with meteors and fireballs, a fireball is a meteor that is larger than normal," read a report on the American Meteor Society's online site. "Most meteors are only the size of small pebbles. A meteor the size of a softball can produce light equivalent to the full moon for a short instant. The reason for this is the extreme velocity at which these objects strike the atmosphere." Seeing a fireball is something not everyone gets a chance to do in their lifetime, according to Hankey. "While fireballs are actually pretty common across the globe, they happen every night, to actually see one in your area is very rare," he said. "If you see one once in your life, you are very lucky." The loud boom heard by some could be explained by what happens when a large fireball breaks apart, Hankey went on to explain. "Really big fireballs that break apart and cause a sonic boom are called 'bolides," Hankey said. "Bolides usually drop meteorites to the ground. It is still not known if this was a bolide or just a fireball." Since some reported hearing a loud noise, Hankey said that leaves open the possibility that the meteor may have been a bolide. "Sonic boom means there are meteorites on the ground," he went on to explain. "Why? Because the meteor would have had to penetrate the atmosphere deep enough to make a sonic boom, When it gets that deep, there's practically no chance of it vaporizing in the air. Most meteors vaporize in the upper atmosphere, but when they make it low enough to cause a sonic boom, they are generally big enough to leave meteorites." While Hankey said the meteor was likely not associated with the Geminids as they are usually dimmer and move at a faster pace, he said the organization is looking further into the case to determine the exact type of meteor that was sighted. METEOR TERMINOLOGY AS DEFINED BY AMS: • Meteoroid: Object floating in space • Meteor: Light effect caused by meteoroid hitting the earth • Fireball: Meteor brighter than Venus • Bolide: Fireball that explodes / fragments into many parts (and usually leaves meteorites) • Meteorite: A space rock / meteoroid that survives entry into the atmosphere and hits the ground Did you capture the sight on video or picture?

Anonymous Coward User ID: 4500411 United States 12/07/2012 04:42 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | At around 6:45am this morning was heading west on Sh45 south of Austin tx. I noticed a very brief brightening of the sky, I did not hear anything. I didn't think much of it but I did notice it. This year there has been moderate fog from 5am to 8-11am nearly EVERY morning east of Austin on sh130. It is odd I have been driving this road daily since it was built and while there is usually a light morning fog, it has been rather extreme and constant everyday anyone I've talked to about it has also been wondering why the change. There was significant cloud cover and I saw this brief flash right before the sun came up and started breaking up the clouds, the flash was atmospheric for sure it was not bright enough to cast a shadow in my area and had I not seen this thread I wouldn't have ever given it a second thought. |
