Russian team prepares to penetrate Lake Vostok (Antarctic)

January 11th, 2011

Lake Vostok, which has been sealed off from the world for 14 million years, is about to be penetrated by a Russian drill bit.

The lake, which lies four kilometres below the icy surface of Antarctica, is unique in that it’s been completely isolated from the other 150 subglacial lakes on the continent for such a long time. It’s also oligotropic, meaning that it’s supersaturated with oxygen — levels of the element are 50 times higher than those found in most typical freshwater lakes.

Since 1990, the Arctic and Antarctic Research Institute in St Petersberg in Russia has been drilling through the ice to reach the lake, but fears of contamination of the ecosystem in the lake have stopped the process multiple times, most notably in 1998 when the drills were turned off for almost eight years.

Ötzi the Iceman May Have Had Funeral Ceremony

January 11th, 2011

A backpack frame rested on the platform, trapped by a protruding rock. Clumps of human and animal hair, plant fragments, splinters of arrow shafts and an ax lay nearby.

Remains of a grass mat, regarded as an overcoat by many investigators, were found near Ötzi’s body. Vanzetti’s group suspects the mat was part of a funeral shroud.

Ötzi’s belongings include an unfinished wooden bow and arrow shafts lacking points, which make sense as burial offerings because a hunter could not have used them, the researchers add.

Weather radar shows something unusual around time birds fell

January 8th, 2011

Video here

A weather radar screen doesn’t just show the weather, apparently. The National Weather Service in North Little Rock examined a speck on the radar that showed up around the same time all the birds fell out of the sky from alleged trauma on New Year’s Eve.

Lybian Desert Glass

January 8th, 2011

David Hatcher Childress

In fact, this wasn’t just any ordinary glass, but ultra-pure glass that was an astonishing 98 per cent silica. Clayton wasn’t the first person to come across this field of glass, as various ‘prehistoric’ hunters and nomads had obviously also found the now-famous Libyan Desert Glass (LDG). The glass had been used in the past to make knives and sharp-edged tools as well as other objects. A carved scarab of LDG was even found in Tutankhamen’s tomb, indicating that the glass was sometimes used for jewellery.

…At any rate, the vitrified areas of the Libyan Desert are yet to be explained. Are they evidence of an ancient war–a war that may have turned North Africa and Arabia into the desert that it is today?

…And that then brings us to 2012. Not simply the end of the Mayan Long Count ‘calendar’,
but also a central focus of number codes in dozens of ancient myths that actually span the planet. the 2012 ‘end date’ seemingly puts the capstone on our pyramid of changes noticeable in these remaining days prior to the Winter Solstice of December 21, 2012.

December 18, 2010
The sad thing here other than fish having died off is what happened to those that ate the fish.

A few hours after eating the fish, which was cooked with vinegar as inun-onan for breakfast, Maribel was at the barangay health center complaining of nausea, vomiting and headache.

She told health workers she started to feel sick after eating the fish.

Murag nang hugot akong panit unya ni init akong nawng (It felt like my skin tightened and my face burned),” said Mori.

Health and fishery officials yesterday started looking into the origin and cause of the fishkill in barangay Ibo, where thousands of fish have turned up dead.

…Pollution is the most common cause of a fishkill.
