Is this actually related to the tandem asteroids passing earth at the closest point today July 15? Just ponder...
Queensland is experiencing major communication problems with the entire Optus phone and internet out of action.Optus is blaming the major outage on damage to a fibre optic cable on the Gold Coast. The failure is creating major hardship for business and customers across the State.Brisbane Airports International and Domestic Terminals are also affected, with flight delays of up to an hour. The outage is causing problems for the check-in and baggage handling systems. Queensland Health says it is experiencing major problems as a result of the outage with staff unable to communicate via email, mobile or landline.It is advising customers experiencing problems contacting their local health for MINOR inquires to phone 131-HEALTH.Any life threatening calls should be directed to 000.

Strange rock
This strange rock found near Roswell by a local businessman — inscribed with what appears to be “crop circles” or some intergalactic message — has stimulated a huge amount interest, as experts probe its origins and any message it may bear.
A strange rock with unusual magnetic properties - deeply scored, with what appears to be moon phases, a solar eclipse and the depiction of a supernova -- has been unearthed on the outskirts of Roswell. Its discovery has startled researchers, scientists and all who have examined it.If proven to be of extraterrestrial origin, it will mark the second time in less than a century that the Roswell area has received communications from outer space.Roswell Mayor Sam D. LaGrone, who actually saw and touched the rock over the weekend, said, "It is a very strange looking rock.... I touched it, I felt it, and I just don't see how it could have been produced."The rock, he said, adds another element to "the strangeness of Roswell," 61 years after the purported 1947 UFO crash and alleged cover-up by military authorities.The deep wine-red colored rock, measuring less than two inches across, and weighing about 40 grams, was unearthed in September 2004 by Roswell businessman Robert Ridge, 50 , who said he found it while deer hunting in Cedar Hill, 17 miles "as the crow flies" from the 1947 purported UFO crash site."I saw some fresh tracks and followed them," he said. "That's when I noticed the partially exposed rock on the side of a sand pit. But I didn't pick it up at first because I thought there were deer up ahead, and didn't want to break off the pursuit."When he realized the tracks were just goat tracks, he headed back the way he came, picked up the rock, and put it in his pocket, he said.After showing the rock to family and friends, he decided to keep it in a safe deposit box until last year, when curiosity to discover the truth about it got the better of him."In July 2007, I was introduced to UFO investigators Chuck Zukowski and Debbie Ziegelmeyer, and they were astounded at what they saw," he said.Zulkowski said the investigators where so impressed, they presented the rock to a number of experts, including prominent New Mexico anthropologists, "all of whom claimed they had never seen anything like it.""They said there is no way this rock could have been scored or drilled in the way it was, without sophisticated modern equipment, like lasers and high speed water-fed grinders and drills," Zukowski said.
The artifact's image appears to be literally "pulled" from the surface of the red iron ore rock.Apart from its strange appearance, Zukowski said, the rock has "peculiar" magnetic properties."It retains its magnetic polarity by which it will spin a compass needle and register its magnetic field on meters," he said. The oval rock will also spin, depending on the position of a magnet over the image surface, he added.Zukowski and Ziegelmeyer said that archeologists requested that the rock be submitted for further laboratory analysis, in what they describe as phase two of their investigation.One anthropologist reportedly described the rock as being similar to a "lodestone."Lodestones have been mentioned in literature for centuries as having magical and mystical properties. There are ancient accounts of people reporting that when holding lodestones, their hands and body shook, and that the stones cured a wide range of illnesses, including snake bites and headaches.Native Americans reportedly used lodestones as protection against snakes.Meanwhile, investigators claim the artifact mirrors crop circles that appeared in Liddleton, England, in 1996, indicating a possibility the stone bears a message from space.Priscilla Wolf, of Tijeras, a native American woman known to have "powers," visited the site were the rock was found last weekend, and said she felt a vibration in her hands when she held the rock, and that "light came down from the skies" when the rock was deposited at the site.Although the rock was found partially exposed on the surface, Zukowski said, the sandy area in which it was found is known to erode and shift, possibly uncovering the rock."It appeared to have been buried at one time," said Ridge, who believes the rock represents more than just an interesting object."After I had it a few months, I began to think about it and began to think that it may be a beacon of some kind, or a message," he said."And I believe the message is that if we don't learn to get along with each other, we will be destroyed," he said.
Lucy Pringles photo of a cropcircle in Aug 1996 said to be two suns, crescent moon and a supernova behind them. Both the rock and the crop circle look the same to me. Picture repeated loud and clear, all that's needed now is the correct discifering of it's meaning
Tandem asteriods
What at first was thought by scientists to be a good-sized asteroid currently hurtling past Earth has turned out to be two giant rocks in tandem.The setup, catalogued as 2008 BT18, was thought to be nearly a half-mile wide after its discovery by MIT's LINEAR search program in January. Nothing else was known about it.
Now seen as two objects orbiting each other, the pair will be closest to Earth on July 14, at about 1.4 million miles (2 million kilometers) away. That's nearly six times as far from us as the moon.It will not strike the planet. But scientists want to learn more about binary asteroids because one day they might find one headed our way. Deflecting a binary off course could be considerably more challenging that altering the path of a single rock.Radar observations from the Arecibo Observatory in Puerto Rico on July 6 and 7 "clearly show two objects," said Lance Benner of NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory.The objects are estimated to be 1,970 feet (600 meters) and 650 feet (200 meters) in diameter. The larger one rotates upon its axis in 3 hours or less.Additional observations from NASA's Goldstone radar in the Mojave Desert in California are expected to reveal more about the density, shapes and orbit of the pair.Asteroids are often loose rubble piles rather than solid objects, and pairs are common. Scientists announced earlier this month that binaries can be created when energy from sunlight splits a loose asteroid in two.Source:Xinhua/Agencies

Mind over matter
Most people believe they will die from some disease.weather its cancer or heart disease.Here's the irony - of course, they will! Two hundred years ago, this was not a way of thinking. Cancer and heart disease are relatively 'modern' ills.
Long life is not in our 'genes' - it's in our perceptions.
This, from Dr. Bruce Lipton:
"Brace yourselves, for we are in for a wild ride. Frontier research in cell biology has finally acknowledged the mechanisms by which perception controls behavior, selects genes and can even lead to a rewriting of the genome. Rather than being the victims of our genes, we have been the victims of our perceptions. We are on the verge of a most radical and most wonderful upheaval of human civilization."
Many researchers now give credit to negativity and stress as contributors, if not actual 'causes' of the majority of disease states, especially in people under 80 years of age.
If you were to change your beliefs? Could you change your physiology, down to the cellular matrix? That is what I am working on. That is my intention.
Currently those who want to be fit and healthy focus first on exercise, second on nutrition and last, if at all, on our state of mind. The reality is the other way around, that is: MIND MEALS MOTION. In that order.

Man's heart stopped for over an hour
The case of a man whose heart stopped beating for one and a half hours only to revive just as doctors were preparing to remove his organs for transplants, is fuelling ethical debates in France about when a person is dead.The 45-year-old man suffered a massive heart attack and rescuers used cardiac massage to try and revive him without success before transferring him to a nearby hospital.Due to a series of complex circumstances, revival efforts continued for longer than usual for a patient whose heart was not responding to treatment, until doctors started preparations to remove organs.It was at that point that the astonished surgeons noticed the man was beginning to breathe unaided again, his pupils were active, he was giving signs that he could feel pain - and finally, his heart started beating again.Several weeks later, the man can walk and talk."This situation was a striking illustration of the questions that remain in the field of re-animation ... and what criteria can be used to determine that a re-animation has failed," says a report on the case, published online by an ethics committee.
The case has stirred debate among medical professionals and daily newspaper Le Monde dedicated a full page to the subject under the headline: "The organ donor wasn't dead.""What is under consideration here is the status of a person, whether they are a patient who can be re-animated or a potential (organ) donor," said the ethics committee report.The hospital where the man was treated is one of only nine in France that are allowed to perform organ transplants on patients in cardiac arrest, in very specific conditions, under a pilot program launched in 2007. Elsewhere, organ transplants are possible on other categories of patients under older rules.The program, which was approved by the French agency in charge of bio-ethics, aims to help reduce the number of people waiting for a transplant by making it possible to take organs from new categories of patients.
The committee, made up of medical professionals involved in the revival of heart attack patients as well as organ transplants, held lengthy discussions on the case of the man on February 19 and a summary was later published on the AP-HP website.
"During the meeting, other re-animators ... spoke of situations in which a person whom everyone was sure had died in fact survived after re-animation efforts that went on much longer than usual," say the minutes of the committee meeting.

astrological happenings May to August 2008
During this time we will be experiencing a feeling of intensity, energetically for some this maybe a painful experience and for others a very enlightening time.It is a time of searching for Truth, enabling one to find “The Light of God/our Presence within”.It may feel like a right of passage, to the next level of consciousness; open to those who allow themselves to just be in the moment, being witness to the mechanisms of life, understanding that the drama is the stage show, and the production being a catalyst and the vehicle we sometimes need in order to enable us to awaken within, remembering who we truly are. And sometimes it feels as though it takes everything we have inside us, to really stop and dive down deeply internally, this can feel like a journey into the darkness in order to find the Light once again.
Transitioning through the essence of love through outer realms, surrendering to compassion while entering a wounding point being the healer and the healed and by doing so entering the reaping of past actions.Is this an activation of an awakening throughout the Collective, for it is only when we are fully conscious and bearing witness to what we are actually doing and have actually done in the past, our his-story that this healing of our great planet as a Collective can take place. We will be forced to look at and take responsibility for what we have been doing to our planet.Being a Taurus this astrological formation will be felt pysically/emotionally.
There is another very important thing happening astrologically right now as Saturn has just started its journey through the sign of Virgo and will remain in this sign until late July 2010.Saturn is considered the Lord of Karma and represents the gatekeeper who holds the keys and will not let us through until we have passed the testing ground. Testing us with all our lessons learned and represents dharma or cosmic order, and our work on this earthly plane through our responsibilities and obligations before we are allowed to ascend to a higher level. He is Lord of restriction, self-discipline and boundaries and structure, he can take away and deplete as easily as creating foundations to something, he is long term and represents the old wise man/wise old Owl.Virgo represents the Mythological figure Demeter who is the ruler of the seasons and is the goddess of our crops, grains and harvest. She represents the goddess of the earth, of agriculture, fertility, livestock and agricultural products.So with Saturn in Virgo for the next few years you can imagine the effects it will have upon our food supplies globally as we will find that one of the first things that is affected are our grains, so we will be forced collectively to rethink our strategies of food wastage and distribution and storage for the long term.New Moon, Full Moon, and Eclipse dates/times/signs:
May New Moon: Monday 5th, at 1017 pm, The psyche turns within looking to the things that keep you safe, secure and comfortable.Full Moon: Tuesday 20th, at 1211 pm, This full Moon is part of a Grand Square formation so something may come to a head with intensity and drama, or you are forced into action as the pressure has been building.
June: New Moon: Wednesday 4th, the mind chatter is in overdrive, bailout,bail out!
Full Moon: Thursday 19th, stay centred Relationships may feel very curly, find some space to breathe, and there you will find Truth. July New Moon: Thursday 3rd, day dreams are full of hopes and wishes, Angels watch over you, blessings in your sleep tonight.Full Moon: Friday 18th, Family and work are brought to the fore, finding and building the right structures to bring a better balance in your lives. August New Moon: Friday 1st, at 8.12 pm, at 09 degrees 32 mins of Leo. Then about 8 mins after this there is a Total Solar eclipse lasting for about 2 hours and 27 mins. So this naturally is a very powerful time. There are 6 planets all lined up closely together in a Stellium including the Sun, Moon, Mercury and Venus plus the South Node and Vertex all in Leo, and close by Saturn and Mars in Virgo. Leo planets/Points oppose Chiron, Neptune and the North Node and quincunx Uranus sitting there rising right on the Ascendant, something very surprising is on its way.It feels like there will be great help needed, the Heart Charkas are opened out as the people who have more must give to the people in crisis. There may be great Earth movement around this time, this eclipse begins in Canada and extends across northern Greenland, the Arctic, central Russia, Mongolia, and China. The Olympic Games may be affected, or the attention is drawn away from them, as things of greater importance are at play now. Full Moon: Sunday 17th, at 7 15 am, at 24 degrees 2l mins of Aquarius. Then about 7 mins before the Full Moon there is a Partial Lunar Eclipse. The Moon is conjunct Neptune, the North Node and Chiron, Pluto squares Mars exactly, and Jupiter Trines Venus, Mercury and Saturn and Uranus conjuncts the Vertex. Again this is very potent energetically and it feels like a shift has happened, the land/oceans may be involved, and it looks like there is a lot of hard work ahead for us.
