Beat this horse until its dead and rotting

I love the taste of Barium in the morning. Good thing, too, since I’ve been getting a lot of it lately. For the uninitiated, Barium and Aluminum are the two main heavy metals which are suspected to be a major component of Chemtrails.

Chemtrails are a covert activity taking place in our skies whose purposes are unclear, although there are several legitimate theories as to the possible purpose(s). Planes are spraying a concoction on the American people (and in fact, all over the world) and all anyone needs to do to be sure is take their blinders off and look up. Many citizens have reported strange illnesses coinciding with the spraying of chemtrails, and some communities have even awoken to strange gunk and ooze over their cities after a night of spraying activity.

If you refuse to be convinced that a chemtrail differs from a contrail and consider the believers loonies, that’s your own bag.
But please check out the below photos. Retain your disbelief, but at least consider the enormous negative health effects from the immense air pollution in the following images.

A contrail:



A contrail is short for condensation trail. Water vapor released from the jet engine cools in the atmosphere and forms icy particles which leave a short trail. Typically the trail dissipates within a very short period – seconds to minutes. At certain altitudes and temperatures contrails can persist for longer periods of time, however the circumstances for this are not often met in the Iowa skies, where these images were taken. Furthermore, when one witnesses jets leaving normal contrails flying at the same altitude as jets leaving chemtrails at the same time, the difference becomes obvious.

A chemtrail:



A chemtrail is short for a chemical trail, because chemicals are being sprayed on us. A more scientifically accurate term for chemtrail may be an aerosol trail, but chemtrail is a better term for convenience purposes if nothing else.

Unlike contrails, chemtrails often persist for hours on end rather than dissipating. Small trails slowly expand and fill the sky. They tend to form a grid like pattern, with parallel and perpendicular lines visible. X’s are quite common. Chemtrail spraying usually begins in the early morning and lasts through the sunlight hours, although it has been documented to occur at night as well. Over time, the trails left by the jets spread across the sky. A typical spray day turns an otherwise clear blue sky into a gray haze. The aerosol spread from the chemtrails often forms artificial cirrus-type clouds. Odd striations and holes are commonplace in these formations.

Contrail vs. chemtrail

"The truth is out there"

On the day I left for Texas, at the end of September, I stopped at the Zippy Lube for a last-minute oil change. The bastard planes were out painting the skies again, leaving miles of artificial clouds in a depressing gray mass across my blue sky.

I struck up a friendly conversation with the mechanic. He told me about his old days in the military, stationed in Kansas, and how he and some buddies drove up to Maine and back on a four day leave and sent their commander a postcard. He had once told them “Don’t ever try to drive to Maine on a four-day leave because it can’t be done.” The mechanic said the look on the guy’s face when he got that postcard was worth all the extra duty they got.

The mechanic and I shot the breeze while his buddy emptied the oil, but I was focused on the sky most of the time.. What the hell, I thought. “You ever wonder what those planes are doing leaving all those trails in the sky?” I asked. He looked up momentarily from my engine toward the sky, but I guess it didn’t look as odd to him as it did to me.

“I think that’s from the water vapor of the jet engine, when it condenses” he replied.

Yeah…. I trailed off. I left it that. He was only half wrong. Contrails are water vapor from a jet engine. Chemtrails are something else.
See earlier posts for more info.

The following photos include both contrails and chemtrails. Can you guess which is which?


















This is not what I remember the sky looking like when I was growing up.
How about you?

Weather Modifcation is Real

U.S. Patent No. 4,686,605 proves it

“In considering the evidence you may make deductions and reach conclusions that reason and common sense lead you to make. You should not be concerned about whether the evidence is direct or circumstantial. Direct evidence is the test of one who claims actual knowledge of a fact, such as an eyewitness. Circumstantial evidence is proof of a chain of facts and circumstances indicating the defendant is either guilty or not guilty. The law makes no distinction between the weight you may give to either direct or circumstantial evidence.”

--Jury instruction No. 5 from a recent criminal trial. (Interference with official acts. She was found guilty. Had a good case too. Don’t represent yourself, unless you have a firm and deep knowledge of the law. Even then, when you’re your own main witness, the cross-examination is always a little tricky.)




Weather modification is real

Weather modification is not just a theory. The idea has long since passed the theory stage, as demonstrated by the U.S. patent from 1987 which follows. No one should have any doubt the necessary infrastructure and equipment to generate weather changes exists today. Cloud-seeding for rain, which is practiced heavily in China as I understand, is one of the less monstrous examples. Time has shown when humanity develops a new technological capability, we generally decline to address whether or not we “should” use that capability. There is no should or should not; if it can be done, it must.

To paraphrase a scientist speaking of cloning, “I’m too excited about the possibilities to consider the consequences.”

The following patent outlines several potential methods of weather modification. Due to the length and detail in the patent I have omitted portions, highlighted key information and in some cases added keywords and comments.

I encourage you to read the entire patent by visiting the United States Patent Office website and searching for United States Patent No. 4,686,605.

United States Patent 4,686,605

Method and apparatus for altering a region in the earth's atmosphere, ionosphere, and/or magnetosphere

Panoramic view of Alaskan HAARP site



Abstract
A method and apparatus for altering at least one selected region which normally exists above the earth's surface. The region is excited by electron cyclotron resonance heating to thereby increase its charged particle density. In one embodiment, circularly polarized electromagnetic radiation is transmitted upward in a direction substantially parallel to and along a field line which extends through the region of plasma to be altered. The radiation is transmitted at a frequency which excites electron cyclotron resonance to heat and accelerate the charged particles. This increase in energy can cause ionization of neutral particles which are then absorbed as part of the region thereby increasing the charged particle density of the region.

DESCRIPTION

1. Technical Field

This invention relates to a method and apparatus for altering at least one selected region normally existing above the earth's surface and more particularly relates to a method and apparatus for altering said at least one region by initially transmitting electromagnetic radiation from the earth's surface essentially parallel to and along naturally-occurring, divergent magnetic field lines which extend from the earth's surface through the region or regions to be altered.

2. Background Art

In the late 1950's, it was discovered that naturally-occuring belts exist at high altitudes above the earth's surface, and it is now established that these belts result from charged electrons and ions becoming trapped along the magnetic lines of force (field lines) of the earth's essentially dipole magnetic field.


. . .

In the past several years, substantial effort has been made to understand and explain the phenomena involved in belts of trapped electrons and ions, and to explore possible ways to control and use these phenomena for beneficial purposes. For example, in the late 1950's and early 1960's both the United States and U.S.S.R. detonated a series of nuclear devices of various yields to generate large numbers of charged particles at various altitudes, e.g., 200 kilometers (km) or greater. This was done in order to establish and study artifical belts of trapped electrons and ions.

. . .

Other proposals which have been advanced for altering existing belts of trapped electrons and ions and/or establishing similar artificial belts include injecting charged particles from a satellite carrying a payload of radioactive beta-decay material or alpha emitters; and injecting charged particles from a satellite-borne electron accelerator. Still another approach is described in U.S. Pat. No. 4,042,196 wherein a low energy ionized gas, e.g., hydrogen, is released from a synchronous orbiting satellite near the apex of a radiation belt which is naturally-occurring in the earth's magnetosphere to produce a substantial increase in energetic particle precipitation and, under certain conditions, produce a limit in the number of particles that can be stably trapped. This precipitation effect arises from an enhancement of the whistler-mode and ion-cyclotron mode interactions that result from the ionized gas or "cold plasma" injection.

It has also been proposed to release large clouds of barium in the magnetosphere so that photoionization will increase the cold plasma density, thereby producing electron precipitation through enhanced whistler-mode interactions.

Comment: Hmm…. Barium. Where have I seen this before? Oh that’s right, chemtrails.

However, in all of the above-mentioned approaches, the mechanisms involved in triggering the change in the trapped particle phenomena must be actually positioned within the affected zone, e.g., the magnetosphere, before they can be actuated to effect the desired change.

DISCLOSURE OF THE INVENTION

The present invention provides a method and apparatus for altering at least one selected region which normally exists above the earth's surface. The region is excited by electron cyclotron resonance heating of electrons which are already present and/or artifically created in the region to thereby increase the charged particle energy and ultimately the density of the region.

In one embodiment this is done by transmitting circularly polarized electromagnetic radiation from the earth's surface at or near the location where a naturally-occurring dipole magnetic field (force) line intersects the earth's surface

. . .

Sufficient energy is employed to cause ionization of neutral particles (molecules of oxygen, nitrogen and the like, particulates, etc.) which then become a part of the region thereby increasing the charged particle density of the region. This effect can further be enhanced by providing artificial particles, e.g., electrons, ions, etc., directly into the region to be affected from a rocket, satellite, or the like to supplement the particles in the naturally-occurring plasma. These artificial particles are also ionized by the transmitted electromagnetic radiation thereby increasing charged particle density of the resulting plasma in the region.

In another embodiment of the invention, electron cyclotron resonance heating is carried out in the selected region or regions at sufficient power levels to allow a plasma present in the region to generate a mirror force which forces the charged electrons of the altered plasma upward along the force line to an altitude which is higher than the original altitude.

. . .


By this embodiment, a plume of altered plasma can be established at selected locations for communication modification or other purposes.


In another embodiment, this invention is used to alter at least one selected region of plasma in the ionosphere to establish a defined layer of plasma having an increased charged particle density.

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

Another official HAARP shot


BEST MODES FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION

The earth's magnetic field is somewhat analogous to a dipole bar magnet. As such, the earth's magnetic field contains numerous divergent field or force lines, each line intersecting the earth's surface at points on opposite sides of the Equator.

. . .

At various altitudes above the earth's surface, e.g., in both the ionosphere and the magnetosphere, plasma is naturally present along these field lines.

. . .

The production of enhanced ionization will also alter the distribution of atomic and molecular constituents of the atmosphere, most notably through increased atomic nitrogen concentration. The upper atmosphere is normally rich in atomic oxygen (the dominant atmospheric constituent above 200 km altitude), but atomic nitrogen is normally relatively rare. This can be expected to manifest itself in increased airglow, among other effects.

. . .

Some embodiments of the present invention require large amounts of power, e.g., up to 10.sup.9 to 10.sup.11 watts, in continuous wave or pulsed power. Generation of the needed power is within the state of the art. Although the electrical generators necessary for the practice of the invention can be powered in any known manner, for example, by nuclear reactors, hydroelectric facilities, hydrocarbon fuels, and the like, this invention, because of its very large power requirement in certain applications, is particularly adapted for use with certain types of fuel sources which naturally occur at strategic geographical locations around the earth. For example, large reserves of hydrocarbons (oil and natural gas) exist in Alaska and Canada. In northern Alaska, particularly the North Slope region, large reserves are currently readily available. Alaska and northern Canada also are ideally located geographically as to magnetic latitudes. Alaska provides easy access to magnetic field lines that are especially suited to the practice of this invention, since many field lines which extend to desirable altitudes for this invention intersect the earth in Alaska. Thus, in Alaska, there is a unique combination of large, accessible fuel sources at desirable field line intersections. Further, a particularly desirable fuel source for the generation of very large amounts of electricity is present in Alaska in abundance, this source being natural gas. The presence of very large amounts of clean-burning natural gas in Alaskan latitudes, particularly on the North Slope, and the availability of magnetohydrodynamic (MHD), gas turbine, fuel cell, electrogasdynamic (EGD) electric generators which operate very efficiently with natural gas provide an ideal power source for the unprecedented power requirements of certain of the applications of this invention. For a more detailed discussion of the various means for generating electricity from hydrocarbon fuels, see "Electrical Aspects of Combustion", Lawton and Weinberg, Clarendon Press, 1969.

. . .


Put another way, in Alaska, the right type of fuel (natural gas) is naturally present in large amounts and at just the right magnetic latitudes for the most efficient practice of this invention, a truly unique combination of circumstances. Desirable magnetic latitudes for the practice of this invention interest the earth's surface both northerly and southerly of the equator, particularly desirable latitudes being those, both northerly and southerly, which correspond in magnitude with the magnetic latitudes that encompass Alaska.


. . .

For example, as a plasma moves upward, other particles at the same altitude as the plasma move horizontally into the region to replace the rising plasma and to form new plasma. The kinetic energy developed by said other particles as they move horizontally is, for example, on the same order of magnitude as the total zonal kinetic energy of stratospheric winds known to exist.


. . .

It can be seen from the foregoing that by appropriate application of various aspects of this invention at strategic locations and with adequate power sources, a means and method is provided to cause interference with or even total disruption of communications over a very large portion of the earth. This invention could be employed to disrupt not only land based communications, both civilian and military, but also airborne communications and sea communications (both surface and subsurface). This would have significant military implications, particularly as a barrier to or confusing factor for hostile missiles or airplanes. The belt or belts of enhanced ionization produced by the method and apparatus of this invention, particularly if set up over Northern Alaska and Canada, could be employed as an early warning device, as well as a communications disruption medium. Further, the simple ability to produce such a situation in a practical time period can by itself be a deterring force to hostile action. The ideal combination of suitable field lines intersecting the earth's surface at the point where substantial fuel sources are available for generation of very large quantitities of electromagnetic power, such as the North Slope of Alaska, provides the wherewithal to accomplish the foregoing in a practical time period, e.g., strategic requirements could necessitate achieving the desired altered regions in time periods of two minutes or less and this is achievable with this invention, especially when the combination of natural gas and magnetohydrodynamic, gas turbine, fuel cell and/or EGD electric generators are employed at the point where the useful field lines intersect the earth's surface. One feature of this invention which satisfies a basic requirement of a weapon system, i.e., continuous checking of operability, is that small amounts of power can be generated for operability checking purposes.

Further, in the exploitation of this invention, since the main electromagnetic beam which generates the enhanced ionized belt of this invention can be modulated itself and/or one or more additional electromagnetic radiation waves can be impinged on the ionized region formed by this invention as will be described in greater detail herein after with respect to FIG. 4, a substantial amount of randomly modulated signals of very large power magnitude can be generated in a highly nonlinear mode. This can cause confusion of or interference with or even complete disruption of guidance systems employed by even the most sophisticated of airplanes and missiles. The ability to employ and transmit over very wide areas of the earth a plurality of electromagnetic waves of varying frequencies and to change same at will in a random manner, provides a unique ability to interfere with all modes of communications, land, sea, and/or air, at the same time. Because of the unique juxtaposition of usable fuel source at the point where desirable field lines intersect the earth's surface, such wide ranging and complete communication interference can be achieved in a resonably short period of time. Because of the mirroring phenomenon discussed hereinabove, it can also be prolonged for substantial time periods so that it would not be a mere transient effect that could simply be waited out by an opposing force. Thus, this invention provides the ability to put unprecedented amounts of power in the earth's atmosphere at strategic locations and to maintain the power injection level, particularly if random pulsing is employed, in a manner far more precise and better controlled than heretofore accomplished by the prior art, particularly by the detonation of nuclear devices of various yeilds at various altitudes. Where the prior art approaches yielded merely transitory effects, the unique combination of fuel and desirable field lines at the point where the fuel occurs allows the establishment of, compared to prior art approaches, precisely controlled and long-lasting effects which cannot, practically speaking, simply be waited out. Further, by knowing the frequencies of the various electromagnetic beams employed in the practice of this invention, it is possible not only to interfere with third party communications but to take advantage of one or more such beams to carry out a communications network even though the rest of the world's communications are disrupted. Put another way, what is used to disrupt another's communications can be employed by one knowledgeable of this invention as a communications network at the same time. In addition, once one's own communication network is established, the far-reaching extent of the effects of this invention could be employed to pick up communication signals of other for intelligence purposes. Thus, it can be seen that the disrupting effects achievable by this invention can be employed to benefit by the party who is practicing this invention since knowledge of the various electromagnetic waves being employed and how they will vary in frequency and magnitude can be used to an advantage for positive communication and eavesdropping purposes at the same time.

HAARP prototype


Comment: Oil anyone?
However, this invention is not limited to locations where the fuel source naturally exists or where desirable field lines naturally intersect the earth's surface. For example, fuel, particularly hydrocarbon fuel, can be transported by pipeline and the like to the location where the invention is to be practiced.

Of course, the fuel source need not be used in its naturally-occurring state but could first be converted to another second energy source form such as hydrogen, hydrazine and the like, and electricity then generated from said second energy source form.

. . .

The generation of electricity by motion of a conducting fluid through a magnetic field, i.e., magnetohydrodynamics (MHD), provides a method of electric power generation without moving mechanical parts and when the conducting fluid is a plasma formed by combustion of a fuel such as natural gas, an idealized combination of apparatus is realized since the very clean-burning natural gas forms the conducting plasma in an efficient manner and the thus formed plasma, when passed through a magnetic field, generates electricity in a very efficient manner.

. . .

This invention has a phenomenal variety of possible ramifications and potential future developments. As alluded to earlier, missile or aircraft destruction, deflection, or confusion could result, particularly when relativistic particles are employed. Also, large regions of the atmosphere could be lifted to an unexpectedly high altitude so that missiles encounter unexpected and unplanned drag forces with resultant destruction or deflection of same.

Weather modification is possible by, for example, altering upper atmosphere wind patterns or altering solar absorption patterns by constructing one or more plumes of atmospheric particles which will act as a lens or focusing device.

. . .

Electromagnetic pulse defenses are also possible. The earth's magnetic field could be decreased or disrupted at appropriate altitudes to modify or eliminate the magnetic field in high Compton electron generation (e.g., from high altitude nuclear bursts) regions. High intensity, well controlled electrical fields can be provided in selected locations for various purposes. For example, the plasma sheath surrounding a missile or satellite could be used as a trigger for activating such a high intensity field to destroy the missile or satellite. Further, irregularities can be created in the ionosphere which will interfere with the normal operation of various types of radar, e.g., synthetic aperture radar. The present invention can also be used to create artificial belts of trapped particles which in turn can be studied to determine the stability of such parties. Still further, plumes in accordance with the present invention can be formed to simulate and/or perform the same functions as performed by the detonation of a "heave" type nuclear device without actually having to detonate such a device.

Thus it can be seen that the ramifications are numerous, far-reaching, and exceedingly varied in usefulness.

Grey Skies, in About an Hour

This day, Monday, September 12, 2005, the skies over Eastern Iowa were very smoggy, as they were on Sunday.

I'm surprised there wasn't a pollution warning, as there have been several this year. Once winter comes, I imagine we'll see more smoggy days.

Despite the smoggy skies, I saw numerous curious chemtrails, a few in Clinton which were white enough to stand out against the grayness and quite many obvious signs of aerial activity between Tipton and IA City as the sun was setting.

Following is the current archive of Iowa Skies photos and commentary.




These images were taken about one hour apart. They display the skies over DeWitt, Iowa on a weekday morning in July 2005.

Following is a chronological presentation of the plane and cloud activity during that hour which shows the progression of chemtrail/aerosol operations.

Even if we assume these are normal planes and normal exhaust from jet engines flying at very high altitudes, surely the extreme pollution which is visible is cause for alarm.

Click on images for larger, more detailed picture



Two trails and some “cloud” wisps in the sky. The plane leaving the top trail is flying parallel to his little neighbor below.



The two trails are spreading out.



The spread continues.



If you look closely at the smoggy mess which has become the sky, you can see a plane leaving a trail more-or-less perpendicular to the trails in the first image. The trail follows the power line and the plane is above the chimney.



Same plane and trail, a few moments later.



Another plane visible in lower left above tree.



Same plane is now clearly visible as it crosses the sky.



Another plane is about to cross the trail from the above image.



Final shot in this progression, shown in introduction. This is what a chemtrail sky looks like after an hour.


Observations from a skywatcher:
Since the fateful May afternoon when I took my first photos of this strange activity in the sky, I have been researching the phenomenon and watching the skies religiously.

I have the privilege of daily viewing the skies over the Quad-City region, home to the Moline Airport and the Rock Island Arsenal. The Arsenal is to my understanding the largest military facility of its kind, producing things like add-on armor for Humvees, Howitzer machine guns and who knows what else. It is frequently said around here that the Rock Island Arsenal was and is an initial target of Russian nukes in the event of a conflict.

I also have the privilege of watching the skies over the DeWitt region to the north, and the Clinton area to the northeast. Clinton sits across the river from the Cordova nuclear power plant. Between Davenport and DeWitt lies the Mt. Joy National Guard installation, where Chinook helicopter training is conducted.

Furthermore, I have a reliable skywatcher contact in the Des Moines area (home to many important facilities and corporations) who provides a near-daily update.

It is also important to recognize there are several nuclear waste storage sites in Iowa. Whether such facilities and the above mentioned military and nuclear hubs are related to the chemtrail phenomena is unclear, but it helps to remind us Iowans that we are not the “middle of nowhere” as we sometimes imagine. Another fact to keep in mind is how important Midwest agriculture is to the food and feed supply of this nation and the world.

Since May I have consistently observed high-altitude planes leaving obvious chemtrails over eastern Iowa on average 5 out of 7 days each week. They do seem to take breaks every once in a while. My reports from the D.M. area seem to run concurrent with eastern Iowa activity; in other words, if the skies are clear here, they are clear there; and if the planes are at work in one spot, they’re working in the other.

When there are chemtrails over Davenport, there are chemtrails over DeWitt, chemtrails over Clinton, and in fact, chemtrails as far as the eye can see. I’d love to one of these days, when activity is high, drive across the state, from east to west to north and south, and see what I can see.

Some days, I get the pleasure of seeing a jet leaving a “normal contrail,” one which is relatively short in length and dissipates without leaving a muddy mess in the sky, one which is left by an obvious passenger plane and is not followed by other unmarked planes leaving long expanding trails which parallel and intersect each other in distinct geometric patterns.

On those days, especially when the “normal contrail” appears at the same time the cloud-monsters are at work, I can be confident I’m not just paranoid and conspiratorial.

I can’t say with any authority the purposes and mechanisms behind the aerosol operations in our skies.
I could say a lot about the various theories and my opinions of them, but I’d like to stick with what I know.

I know there are planes flying over Iowa at very high altitudes which leave long trails in apparent geometric patterns which over time expand and fill the sky.

I’m convinced from my observations of these planes they are not commercial passenger jets. I’m also convinced what they are doing is deliberate.

I discern the insulated skies which result from activity such as shown in the photos above will and does lead to diminished sunlight reaching the lower atmosphere and likely will result in subsequent environmental consequences, regardless of the phenomena’s origin, purpose or cause.

That’s enough gong fu for now.

I will leave you with a final image.

This picture was taken from the other side of the building featured in the above montage. It was taken in the late evening a day or two before the photos featured above. DeWitt, Iowa, with a population of approximately 5,000 and located in a rural community, sure is a hotspot for air traffic.
