BTTT!

Heya Hi!

Ohhh, now that is a worry.

Inviting Iraq and Afghanistan to the G-8 meeting, a brave thing for President Bush to do, but it will be like waving a red flag in front of a charging bull.

Good find, first that I had heard of it.

Thanks,

Sorry we lost in SD RR ;(

There you arem there you are! ;)

broken arrow?

I'll bet that 6 of them will be sitting over the site where the bomb is in the ocean.

I am sitting here laughing, cause there are folks all over the world cussing.

Imagine going to the trouble to plan something big, and then
to find out that it may be "your" plan that they found out about.

But it won't protect us from the terrorist or the nuts who will hide behind the terrorist, with a bomb in their suitcase or the one with the bio germs.

China, Cuba, Iran, N. Korea and our friends the Russians have to be checking their plans, not being sure of where the ships are headed first.

And hopefully our ships can disappear, after all OBL's navy does.

We won't be bored this year, too many things to look at.

This one's for you Ma

Broken arrow is Air force term for a lost or unsecured nuclear device, as in off the Georgia Coast....G-8 Summit....June 8th and I will add one more thing to all of this...

Venus Eclipses The Sun by Gordon Brennan
On 8th June a very rare phenomenon occurs when Venus passes directly over the face of the Sun. Anyone who is particularly interested in the astronomy of the event can investigate the many Internet sites commenting on this. Scientific institutes and observatories around the world are running special events for the public about the Venus transit so it can be viewed safely and there are many free talks and meetings on 8th June. Some shops will be selling special viewing glasses to watch the transit safely.

The event is generating such interest partly because it is so rare. The last time this happened was in 1882. In fact the transits happen in pairs: it occurred on 9th December 1874 and then on 6th December 1882. The June 2004 transit will be followed by another on 6th June 2012 and then not again until 11th December 2117.

A curious precision exists in the timing of the intervals between transits. There is a repeating cycle of intervals of 8 + 121.5 + 8 + 105.5 years between each transit, a total of 243 years.

It is not visible everywhere around the world. In the UK we will miss the start of the event when it is below the horizon. What we shall see will be the planet as a black dot with a diameter about one thirty-second of the Sun. Venus’ shadow on the Sun will appear much bigger than the actual size of Venus itself, owing to the distances involved.

This transit is also an eclipse. Just as Rahu and Ketu, the nodes of the Moon, produce eclipses, so the nodes of Mercury and Venus can do the same. Mercury’s transit is much more common, but it also is rarely seen as Mercury stays so close to the horizon. The outer planets do not cause such eclipses, as they cannot come between the Earth and the Sun.

Does the event have any astrological meaning? Of course every event in our Solar System is significant, so the answer is yes. What does Venus represent? Women, art, love, desire, beauty are its main associations in Western astrology, as the goddess Aphrodite.

But in Vedic astrology there is a larger picture, which includes the associations already given plus such matters as Venus being the teacher or priest of the demons or those who focus on material desires and also being a warrior, whose desire cannot be defeated. In Indian mythology Venus’ avatar Parashurama is provoked by the slaying of his father and responds by killing every warrior on the earth until he is pacified and agrees to give up his violence.

In terms of religions Venus represents Muslims. (Rahu is sometimes given as the significator, but in this case as Venus is eclipsing the Sun both seem relevant). Islam’s holy day is Friday, Venus’ day. Moreover, just as Islam is a religion that focuses on the beneficial organisation of worldly matters, so Venus is the planet relevant here. The Sun represents Christians – Sunday is the holy day and if we dig into the history of the Christian church we find Sun worship overlaid by Christian festivals, such as Christmas, the old festival of the winter solstice. Parts of the Christian story have been blended into current beliefs from pre-Christian Sun worshippers such as the Mithraic and Dionysian cults. The Jewish religion naturally favours Saturday – Saturn’s day of atonement for sins.

So Venus eclipsing the Sun seems to say that a shadow is being cast over the Christian world by the Islamic world. Enough said – that is obviously what is taking place just now. Looking back in history for confirmation we see that during the last occasion of the transits from 1874-1882 there was a crisis in the Ottoman Empire, a massacre of 15,000 Christians in Bosnia Herzegovina and Bulgaria, the Russo-Turkish war and major internal re-organisation in the Ottoman Empire with the first Ottoman Constitution.

Perhaps even more significant is the current context of this transit of the Sun. Just now anger is flaring up as Mars approaches Saturn. On 25th May Mars will be exactly conjunct Saturn in Gemini with retrograde Venus in the same sign. Mercury, lord of Gemini, will be only one degree from Rahu in Aries at the same time. A build up of energies in Gemini and Aries with a Parivartana Yoga between Mars and Mercury is an explosive mixture, so we can expect at least a heating up of the current situation. On 8th June Venus will have moved back into Taurus and will retrograde across the Sun. The transit takes place at 24 degrees of Taurus, in the first quarter of Mrigashira, the Nakshatra or lunar constellation related to Mars. In general terms, though, we are seeing the preparation for bigger events to come in the next few years.

In the political arena it is very interesting to note that the G8 Summit, whose agenda is mainly the Middle-East situation and non-proliferation issues, begins on June 8th in Sea Island, Georgia, USA, with President Bush in the chair. There is quite likely to be terrorist activity at the very start of this event, which will focus the minds of the participants on the urgent need for international cooperation.

8th June 2004- A Rare Transit of Venus by Komilla Sutton

A rare transit of Venus takes places across the Sun on 8th June. At the start of this transit Venus is at 24 degrees 3’Taurus and the Sun is in 23 degrees 50’ Taurus. Venus ends the transit at 23 degrees 53’ Taurus.

Both are in Mrigasira Nakshatra. Usually when Venus transits close to the Sun it goes behind the Sun so becomes invisible to those watching it from the earth ( usually known as combustion). On this rare occasion Venus is going to transit in front of the Sun creating a small shadow on the surface of the Sun and becoming visible during the day instead of the night. The eclipse of the Sun by Venus starts at 5.19am and finishes at 11.32 am GMT, visible in countries where there is daylight during this period.

Venus eclipsing the Sun took place last time 122 years ago in 1882 and there are only 5 recorded sighting of this phenomena, making it a must see for all enthusiasts for astronomy and astrology. Enjoy the celestial event of the new century.

Venus starts its ingress across the face of the Sun at 5.19am GMT, the transit will be observable from all of Asia, Australia, Europe, and high northern latitude including Alaska, northern Canada, Greenland and Iceland. At greatest or mid-transit, it will be visible from Europe, Africa, Asia, western Australia, and high northern latitudes. As Venus egresses off the face of the Sun at 11.32am GMT, the transit will be observable from all of Africa, Europe, central Asia, eastern North America, northern South America, and high northern latitudes including Greenland, Iceland and northern Canada.

The entire transit is observable from Europe, north and east Africa, and Asia (except Far East). In contrast, none of the transit will be seen from western North America, the eastern Pacific (including Hawaii), southern South America (Chile and southern Argentina) and Antarctica. Western states in the USA which miss the transit include: Arizona, California, Colorado, Idaho, Nevada, New Mexico, Montana, Oregon, Texas, Utah, Washington and Wyoming.

You will need special glasses to view this transit - take extra care of your eyes. Never watch this event with naked eyes. For comprehensive details visit http://sunearth.gsfc.nasa.gov

Note times of transit will vary slightly due to parallax at different positions on the globe. Venus is closest to Earth also on this day.

Mexican president to visit new, larger consulate here

There are about 753,000 Latinos in Chicago -- most of them Mexican -- making up about 26 percent of the population. In Cook County, about 19 percent of the population is Hispanic.

Fox may also use his visit to promote more trade between Illinois and Mexico. Mexico is the state's second-largest importer of goods. Illinois exports about $2.15 billion worth of goods south of the border.

Yes, I had found the religious numbers, sometimes use 9 or 19, and need to work with the 440 more, it pulls Georgia sites, (is the area code.)

I used 40 for a long time, but now seldom get past the 1425 in google searches.

When that long list of numbers came out, I attempted to use a lot of them, what comes up, part of the time is page numbers.

But it makes no difference what you use, if you come up with a site that is worth going to.
