Burning in the Skies - Linkin Park


Welcome Net followers! If you're coming in from here...please expand this video.. And, do sit back and enjoy the show! If the video stalls.That be the Deep State@!
------
For the thoughtful out there - This video (so, not my video) - Is about 'US' (both meanings) and the 'Now' of this Day, and the Hiroshima's of our past and even perhaps our near future..

And, it's about what we may yet fall into... Please everyone, stop listening to the drivel fed to you by the Media and carefully look around with fresh eyes and an open mind! On this day...
-----
'I stand before my God, a broken and useless hand
waiting for His redemption, in a sad land. 

For those who have died in the fires of callous wars,
We will be remembered, for ever more.

But, for those of us who stood idly by,
We all yet may see, another fire in the sky!'

Our Creator is not a he, she or it. (My thought).
But, is rather part of the very fabric of this universe we all live in,
 and
whose bridge was Jesus Christ! Hey! Someone had to get tagged!
Get over it. Lots of plans and stuff yet for us to do...

After that, then we must all Collide!

A Strange Faraday Cadge!

With all the recent talk about the chances the US will get into a nuclear war, talk sometimes turns tot he EMP effect. EMP refers to Electromagnetic Effect and can occur as a result of a high altitude air burst by a large nuclear weapon. Another more likely event would be a major solar flare (designated X1). The over all effect of either event would be to fry virtually all electronic circuits rendering cars, power transformers and radio's instantly obsolete. One way to protect your electronic goods is to
enclose them in a Faraday cadge. Actually, any metal enclosure can serve the purpose of shielding items like cell phones, transistor radios and such. This old Vietnam era Howitzer M1 shell canister makes a perfect place to stuff electronic stuff in the event of a war or solar hiccups!

End Times: A novel in the making?




I had an idea for a novel that would explore the concept of how a simple chain of events could end up with Earth experiencing both a nuclear and volcanic winter at the same time! The story would center around a character by the name of Cliff Roberts; an aging professor at Berkley California who specializes in sudden and abrupt climate change along with the factors that can cause it. Soon he finds himself the in the center of a maelstrom of events that will lead humanity on a path to destruction and, just possibly, salvation. Please feel free to read on…

Prologue

It was springtime and Cliff Roberts had himself a busy schedule on tap. While forty years of living a hectic lifestyle as senior professor of climate change in Berkley California had done little good for his face, inside he was still energized and intellectually razor sharp - He had to be or his students would run over him like a Mac truck.

As he sat himself down to a plate of eggs (bad for the heart), toast and milk, he looked up briefly at an old tube type TV stuffed into a remote corner of the kitchen. The words ‘asteroid strike’ had caught his attention and for a moment his breakfast was forgotten.

[This just in from NASA...Apparently, a small asteroid has struck the US in the vicinity of Yellowstone Park. Details remain sketchy as the area of impact has been cordoned off by emergency services…. stay tuned to this channel folks for unfolding events as they happen…]

“Well, I’ll be! Cliff spoke aloud to the toaster as though it could hear him. It did not. “How bad could it have been? That media guy had used the word small had he not?” The toaster remained stoically mute. Cliff decided to refocus his attention on his breakfast and then get ready for work.

-----------
Eleven hundred miles to the northwest of Cliff’s home, in the area of Yellowstone Park, a scene out of Dante’s Inferno was rapidly unfolding. While the ‘asteroid’ had turned out to be just a large meteorite measuring less than two hundred feet across, it had landed almost directly over the immense magma dome under Lake Yellowstone. Now a small fissure that had been created by the impact was rapidly expanding, and in doing so, was opening the doors to hell on earth – and super volcanic eruption was now only hours away. No one on planet, not Cliff, the President or anyone else for that matter earth had any idea of how such a seemingly minor impact was going to set the stage for a series of events that would end in the near extinction of mankind and most surprisingly, their salvation.
