Subject: More Mosquitoes Found w/West Nile Virus

More groups of mosquitoes found with West Nile virus

Two more groups of mosquitoes in the East Valley have tested positive for West Nile virus, Maricopa County officials said Friday.

The samples, found in Mesa and Chandler, bring to four the number of mosquito samples infected with the virus. A horse in north Phoenix also tested positive for the virus this week but is recovering.

One mosquito sample was found in a drain at a park near Alma School and Baseline roads in Mesa. The other was found in a retention basin drain near Elliot and Dobson roads in Chandler.

In addition to West Nile virus, the Mesa mosquito sample tested positive for western equine encephalitis, which can cause brain-swelling encephalitis, especially in children, older adults and those with weakened immune systems.

The county treated the water areas where both samples were found and notified Mesa and Chandler officials of the problems.

TAIWAN TINDERBOX
Beijing threatens Taipei
with destruction

Recognize '1 China' or else,
says official statement

Beijing last night threatened Taiwan with destruction if President Chen Shui-bian doesn't accept China is "one nation."

In an official statement, the mainland government warned Taiwan leaders to make choices about the future carefully or the "Chinese people will crush their schemes firmly and thoroughly at any cost."

"At present, the relations across the Taiwan Strait are severely tested," the statement said. "To put a resolute check on the 'Taiwan independence' activities aimed at dismembering China ... is the most pressing task before the compatriots on both sides of the strait."

The statement was issued by the Taiwan Affairs Office under the Communist Party and the State Council. It came four days Chen is inaugurated as president.

"Chen Shui-bian has left Taiwan society deeply torn with his vicious mischaracterization of the popular will of the Taiwan people, his unbridled instigation of hostility and animosity towards the mainland, and his frenzied provocation to the status quo that both the mainland and Taiwan belong to the one and same China," the harshly worded document said.

China offered Taiwan a carrot as well as a stick.

If Chen accepts the one-China policy, Beijing held out the hope of negotiations leading to an end to hostilities, establishment of a mechanism to resolve cross-strait disputes, direct commercial and transport links, closer economic co-operation and greater market access.

The statement added: "The Taiwan leaders have before them two roads: one is to pull back immediately from their dangerous lurch towards independence ... The other is to keep following their separatist agenda to cut Taiwan from the rest of China, and in the end, meet their own destruction by playing with fire." Taiwan's Mainland Affairs Council and the Presidential Office had no immediate response to the statement.

The U.S. has sent its aircraft carrier strike group led by the USS Kitty Hawk to cruise the East Asian region ahead of Thursday's inauguration ceremony.

PRAYERS FOR THE ABOVE, PLEASE!

LORD GOD, I ask that you cause rabid nationalists in Mainland China to fall from power; become so ill as to be removed from office; become hyper paranoid of devastation; become hyper paranoid of USA's involvement; fight amongst themselves; and generally cause all such plans to come to naught as they fall in their own pit. Cause a flood of humility and caution to infect the whole of China's leadership and military.

Cause Taiwan's leaders to acquire tons of humility and caution as well. Bring about creative solutions to the conflict. Cause all satan's forces on the scene to be neutered by your Spirit and angelic host, Oh Lord, in Jesus' Name.

TM LOVED ONES,

Recently, a well read, experienced, alert, very bright but wisely publicly anonymous FREEPER brother shared this with me privately. I don't have the original link. I suspect it could be Googled . . . ahhh, here it is:

http://www.totse.com/en/fringe/tesla/tesla.html

The Tesla thing is very interesting. I don’t discuss my opinions about Tesla anymore because people think I’m crazy. Whenever I see a cluster of earthquakes like what’s happening in CA or a major earthquake in a militarily hot spot like Afghanistan, El Nino, droughts, floods etc. I always think of Tesla. I can offer you some info. This is just a tidbit of the beginning of his work. Remember, Tesla’s goal was to transmit very large amounts of wireless energy. He succeeded. . . He was the master of a mysterious new force of destruction. . .

Most of Tesla’s early work was conducted in Colorado Springs. The following is an excerpt from an 11 page 1989 essay by Oliver Nichelson:

The Colorado Springs Gazette, ran a local interest item on May 30th. With the headline: "Tesla Discovered 'Death Ray' in Experiments He Made Here," the story recounted, with a feeling of local pride, the inventor's 1899 researches financed by John Jacob Astor.

Tesla's Colorado Springs tests were well remembered by local residents. With a 200 foot pole topped by a large copper sphere rising above his laboratory he generated potentials that discharged lightning bolts up to 135 feet long. Thunder from the released energy could be heard 15 miles away in Cripple Creek.

People walking along the streets were amazed to see sparks jumping between their feet and the ground, and flames of electricity would spring from a tap when anyone turned them on for a drink of water. Light bulbs within 100 feet of the experimental tower glowed when they were turned off. Horses at the livery stable received shocks through their metal shoes and bolted from the stalls. Even insects were affected: Butterflies became electrified and "helplessly swirled in circles - their wings spouting blue halos of 'St. Elmo's Fire.'"

The most pronounced effect, and the one that captured the attention of death ray inventors, occurred at the Colorado Springs Electric Company generating station. One day while Tesla was conducting a high power test, the crackling from inside the laboratory suddenly stopped. Bursting into the lab Tesla demanded to know why his assistant had disconnected the coil. The assistant protested that he had not done anything. The power from the city's generator, the assistant said, must have quit. When the angry Tesla telephoned the power company he received an equally angry reply that the electric company had not cut the power, but that Tesla's experiment had destroyed the generator!

This is just the tip of the iceberg. And remember, this was back at the turn of last century. That was a time when Russia was said to have developed a death ray. This technology is not something that has been forgotten but has probably been perfected. Not by us but by Russia. This essay goes on to say a couple of page later:

However, the difference between a current that can be used to run, say, a sewing machine and a current used as a method of destruction, however, is a matter of timing. If the amount of electricity used to run a sewing machine for an hour is released in a millionth of a second, it would have a very different, and negative, effect on the sewing machine.

Tesla said his transmitter could produce 100 million volts of pressure with currents up to 1000 amperes which is a power level of 100 billion watts.

If it was resonating at a radio frequency of 2 MHz, then the energy released during one period of its oscillation would be 100,000,000,000,000,000 Joules of energy, or roughly the amount of energy released by the explosion of 10 megatons of TNT.

Such a transmitter, would be capable of projecting the energy of a nuclear warhead by radio. Any location in the world could be vaporized at the speed of light.

Not unexpectedly, many scientists doubted the technical feasibility of Tesla's wireless power transmission scheme whether for commercial or military purposes. The secret of how through-the-earth broadcast power was found not in the theories of electrical engineering, but in the realm of high energy physics.

I know this sounds a little far fetched but remember that the Russians have spent over a hundred years on this project, mind control, ELF waves and other projects. I believe these are technologies that our government knows about and may even be why we leave Russia alone. And if Russia has this you know who else probably has it. . . . Another condensed excerpt that is noteworthy from this essay:

The Tunguska event took place on the morning of June 30th, 1908. An explosion estimated to be equivalent to 10-15 megatons of TNT flattened 500,000 acres of pine forest near the Stony Tunguska River in central Siberia. . . When an expedition was made to the area in 1927 to find evidence of the meteorite presumed to have caused the blast, no impact crater was found. When the ground was drilled for pieces of nickel, iron, or stone, the main constituents of meteorites, none were found down to a depth of 118 feet. . . In 1907 and 1908, Tesla wrote about the destructive effects of his energy transmitter. His Wardenclyffe transmitter was much larger than the Colorado Springs device that destroyed the power station's generator. His new transmitter would be capable of effects many orders of magnitude greater than the Colorado device.

In 1915, he said he had already built a transmitter that "when unavoidable ... may be used to destroy property and life.". . . Tesla had motive and means to be the cause of the Tunguska event. He also seems to confess to such a test having taken place before 1915. His transmitter could generate energy levels and frequencies that would release the destructive force of 10 megatons, or more, of TNT.

The current situation in the middle east I believe is minor compared to what is inevitable here in the states. Yes they can knock out our power grid. That in itself would be a disaster. All of it, with a century old technology.

Sorry this is so lengthy. . . I didn’t even get into the alleged conspiracies and the documented timelines of extraordinary events that transpired before his government contracts and ultimate disappearance. . .

I look forward to your input on [a particular kind of thread] and look forward to your comments. If you would like this essay (fascinating read) you can probably google for it or I can email it to you. Its called “Nikola Tesla’s Long Range Weapon” author is Oliver Nichelson. There is a lot of other info out there regarding Tesla’s achievements and there is a lot of classified info.

IF there were truly NOTHING TO IT, MOVE ALONG, then it wouldn't be so highly classified, now, would it--especially after 100 years! The sheeple are considered such idiots. Perhaps because so many act like it so often and so much??? Sigh.

From the White House, a nightmare scenario

US News and World Report 5/24/04

Washington Whispers

From the White House, a nightmare scenario

White House officials say they've got a "working premise" about terrorism and the presidential election: It's going to happen. "We assume," says a top administration official, "an attack will happen leading up to the election." And, he added, "it will happen here." There are two worst-case scenarios, the official says.

The first posits an attack on Washington, possibly the Capitol, which was believed to be the target of the 9/11 jet that crashed in Pennsylvania.

Theory 2: smaller but more frequent attacks in Washington and other major cities leading up to the election.

To prepare, the administration has been holding secret antiterrorism drills to make sure top officials know what to do. "There was a sense," says one official involved in the drills, "of mass confusion on 9/11. Now we have a sense of order." Unclear is the political impact, though most Bushies think the nation would rally around the president. "I can tell you one thing," adds the official sternly, "we won't be like Spain," which tossed its government days after the Madrid train bombings.

Thanks for the new thread JP

[FairOpinion]

Hi, Piper

Noticed the new thread.

I don't post that much here, but I do take a quick look when I can.

Just noticed that Thread Seven is locked, and found this one.

Do you suppose we could persuade the Admin Moderator to post a link to this new thread there, it's disappointing to find the thread locked "with no place to go", instead of redirection to the new thread.

I found the new one by searching, but it would be nice to be able to see the continuity and just go on to the latest Threat Matrix.

AM, would you be so kind and post the link at the
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/news/1124883/posts directing people to this link?

Thanks.
