NY Residents Feel Shock Waves From 4.1 Mid-Atlantic Earthquake My Apartment was Shaking
I was sitting on my couch, watching TV, when suddenly I felt things shaking. Not having a computer, I did not immediately run over to see what was going on until now. You know, I pay strict attention to the mid Atlantic Ridge and this is what I discovered. NY Residents Feel Shock Waves From 4.1 Mid-Atlantic Earthquake.
The hologram continues to regurgitating all of the secrets that has kept it running throughout history. It's as if a cleansing process is taking place in all realms of the hologram as it closes. You already know many of the events that have gone wrong, understanding that humans don't call the shots but there are things such as the collective unconscious, secret governments and ruling classes, perhaps alien intervention, and other factors that are bringing this all into play in this timeline ...
My friend John in Florida shared another murder-suicide story, this one out of Washington State, involving his niece, her husband, and their son. Authorities investigate suspected murder-suicide in Sammamish. Though John hasn't spoken to this side of this family for years, it is just another example of the madness that permeates the grids and may one day touch the lives of someone you know.
The increase in sex scandals is collectively affecting the subconscious of everyone in the hologram. If I was a man in power, and knew women were going to come forward with sexual allegations, I would prepare for dismissal.
AND don't forget who was interviewing Bill O'Reilly on HIS misbehaviors, asking if Bill thought he had any part at all. As Matt Lauer did this interview, was he thinking that he'd be next in the spotlight? Who else are we seeing, right now, that have these secret misbehaviors? More importantly, who will we be reading about next, that is even more well known. This should be called, Wake-Up America. And as my friend, George, always says, there are no conincidences.
This week you must have read about sexual misconduct and law suits against Massage Envy. The reason I am mentioning it is that one of the franchises, in Westport, Connecticut, is for sale and a few months ago my daughter Nikki thought about buying it. My immediate reaction was NO! After research into the financials ... Nikki decided it was a bad investment. Wise choice.
Earth Speak
Reports have it that the Earth's rotation is slowing down leading to an increase in earthquakes for 2018. Personally I think more deadly earthquakes in populated areas have been on the increase for years and 2018 may highlight in some unexpected areas. The element of surprise rules in end times.
Travelers stranded in Bali, by the eruption of Mount Agung, are departing the "Island of the Gods". Embracing the moment, rather than feeling trapped in an unwanted experience, they view it as a spiritual journey knowing that they will return home one day soon. This parallels the Journey of Humanity in the Alchemy of Time.
For today let's revisit my friend Pat's 2005 Journey to Bali
Code Talkers
Codes and secrets rule the algorithm in it's many facets. From humans to extraterrestrials, hidden codes and agendas keep us in engaged in reality. It's about deciphering that which is not obvious to illicit a hidden truth.
I've always been fascinated by the Native American Code Talkers. They helped define and influence a positive outcome during World War II. You have to wonder if their secrets reflect the stupidity of the white man highlighted this week with a Trump encounter. This is what happened
Fade to Black
Thursday November 30
It hasn't been easy working without a computer but thanks to George, I've managed. There are no plans to replace my Mac Pro as I await a new video card. I love the silver tower in which I dwell most days, especially with its beautiful 30 inch cinematic monitor. The video card will arrive either Saturday or Monday. The backstory to this saga began Wednesday November 21, 2017 ...
While talking to Linda Z about the unique synchronicities we have shared and how it all goes back to Coney Island where two little girls grew up three blocks apart in the matrix of an amusement park area. Linda had explained that she has always been connected to overlapping circles, even planning her college research reflecting that algorithm.
Linda wanted to know more about the fade to black experience. Suddenly, as if I said the magic words "Fade to Black," my computer monitor went to black, startling me at the synchronicity of it all. The monitor returned to real-time for about one minute, then faded to black a second time. This repeated a third and final time as if symbolic of third dimension then all was gone ... message received, over and OUT!
AND don't forget who was interviewing Bill O'Reilly on HIS misbehaviors, asking if Bill thought he had any part at all. As Matt Lauer did this interview, was he thinking that he'd be next in the spotlight? Who else are we seeing, right now, that have these secret misbehaviors?

Wednesday - Hump Day
This is not about sexual misconduct or Wednesday being the middle of the week. It's about other pressing issues that may bust your h--p.
I hope you are paying attention to the latest North Korean missile launch as things escalate. Kim Jung-Un aims to take us out!
You probably know that the tax bill is another disaster in the making that hopefully will not get passed. Will the government shut down and be rebooted by Trump?
Worry about healthcare as it applies to your situation. This could easily end up another Trump disaster.
On another gorgeous fall day, I headed east to Long Island from my home in Brooklyn. Entering the Belt Parkway, I turned on the Waze app and noticed that there was traffic along much of the route, so I turned on the news just as the announcer said, "It's 11:11", which signaled to me that this was going to be a special day. It did not disappoint. Not wanting to fill my ride with current events, I pushed the CD button and listened to oldies all the way to my destination.
Driving west from Babylon, Long Island, my friend Linda headed towards our rendezvous at the Olive Garden in Valley Stream, a halfway point for us. We had rekindled our friendship through the Lincoln Hugh School Facebook group earlier this month and decided it was time for a reunion.
Linda and I not only went to high school together but also to elementary school and that's not easy to find in a world where most people our age have moved away or moved on. Often I think I'm the last graduate from the Abraham Lincoln High School class of 1960, who remains in Brooklyn.
Linda and I were both born in February 1943 and are Aquarians. Much to our surprise we both wore purple and black. The more we get to know each other the more parallels we find. On this day our reunion was very special and we look forward to meeting again in the spring when she returns after a three-month stay in that place most New Yorkers go, especially seniors, the East Coast of Florida. We plan to keep in touch by phone and email because girls just wanna have fun.
L'Chaim .... To life ... Happy Holidays !
Navigating the City
This time of the year invites people from all over the world to visit New York City. It is a magical season that starts with Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade all the way through New Year's Eve celebrations. Tuesday night featured the famous Rockefeller Center Christmas tree lighting.
New Yorkers navigate the city in many different ways - cars, bikes, buses, trains (subways) and by foot. They say the fastest and cheapest way to get around, once in Manhattan, is by subway, but when you get to the four outer boroughs it can be a disaster. There are always comments about delays and safety, but for some this is the only means of travel so they adapt.
Here's an even crazier story. Tuesday, when I returned home from a day in Long Island with Linda, I decided to go to the local gas station. As I drove down 4th Avenue, passing the entrance to the subway station, there were emergency vehicles everywhere.
When you come up from the subway platform, and enter the street, there is/was a convenient store to the left. Apparently, as I noticed when slowly driving by, somebody had driven their charcoal gray SUV straight through the store demolishing everything. I will try to get some details today, though maybe I don't want to know.
Many of us have heard or seen stories about people who drive through buildings, not as an act of terrorism, but either seniors having a "senior moment", people who have sudden heart attacks or other emergency medical conditions, or those under the influence. Be careful. Stay safe as holidays affect emotions.
Eruption of Mount Agung in Bali
Wednesday update ...
An estimated 59,000 travelers have been stranded in Bali by the eruption of Mount Agung as a cloud of volcanic ash continues. Stranded tourists are finding alternative methods of leaving Indonesia as a more serious eruption seems imminent on the "Island of the Gods".
As you know the Pacific Ring of Fire has thousands of volcanoes, some dormant, some active. With earthquake activity expected to step up in 2018 due to the slowing down of the Earth's rotation, one must keep an eye on these events. Here is a map of Volcano Activity ...
For those stranded in Bali, who embrace this as an extended spiritual journey filled with unexpected detours, there are beaches as well as famous temple complexes. When looking at pics of lightning and smoke from this, or any other eruption, it subconsciously triggers the Rise of the Phoenix at the end of reality.
It's with great joy that I announce my computer only needed a video card ... all else is working perfectly. Soon everything will be back to normal in Ellie's World. The past few days my blogs have been edited and posted by my friend George. I just want to thank him again and again and again ...
So here we are on another beautiful fall day in the city as off I go to another school reunion this time with Linda Z in Long Island. Pic to follow ....
When Harry Met Meghan
The frenzy over Prince Harry and Meghan Markel continues building to a feverish pitch this spring. We need this romantic adventure, set against the backwash of dramas now in play in the hologram. Watching Harry and Meghan talking about how they met ... with stories yet to come .... is definitely a positive diversion filled with the stuff we enjoy in a romantic film.
Tracing Meghan's British roots resulted in some very interesting connections to the royal family. One of her ancestors was beheaded on orders given by King Henry VIII - his wealth and land confiscated. Further, Meghan is not the first in her family to set foot in a royal palace. One of Megan's great great great grandmothers, a woman named Mary Bird, once worked at Windsor Castle. It's all connected through bloodlines and the Matrix.
Most people I know are thrilled that these two people, from different backgrounds and cultures, are allowed to marry with the blessings of the Royals. This was unthinkable in the days when Prince Charles married Diana ... a marriage that was doomed from the start. We all learn by the mistakes of the past and hopefully move forward as that knowledge guides us into a more realistic future.
Trump vs Pocahontas
I've always been fascinated by the Native American Code Talkers. They helped define and influence a positive outcome for World War II. They were also involved in an episode of "The X-Files" called Anasazi - among other films and documentaries. They tap into the spiritual side of Native American culture something many embrace.
Monday, it was nice to see them honored in a ceremony at the White House until ... Trump referred to Senator Elizabeth Warren as Pocahontas. OK, we've come to understand that Trump is going to put Big Foot in Big Mouth, day after day ... showing his ignorance and insensitivity to events. This is what happened ...
President Trump on Monday transformed a White House ceremony to honor Navajo veterans of World War II into a racially charged controversy, using the event as a platform to deride Senator Elizabeth Warren as “Pocahontas.”
Standing in the Oval Office alongside three Navajo code talkers, whom he called “very, very special people,” Mr. Trump dispensed with his prepared remarks and took aim at Ms. Warren without naming her, resurrecting a famous nickname as the veterans stood stonefaced.
“You were here long before any of us were here,” Mr. Trump said to the veterans, ages 90 and older, who wore their military uniforms for the occasion, juxtaposed with turquoise and silver, hallmarks of Navajo culture. “Although we have a representative in Congress who, they say, was here a long time ago. They call her Pocahontas.”
He made the remarks while standing in front of a portrait of President Andrew Jackson - favorite of Mr. Trump's - who served as the nation's seventh president and signed the Indian Removal Act of 1830, which resulted in the mass displacement and deaths of Native Americans often referred to as the Trail of Tears.
The comment made for an awkward moment during an otherwise uplifting event, organized to pay tribute to the contributions of the young Native Americans recruited by the United States military to create top-secret coded messages used to communicate during battles. This was the latest instance of a president who relishes any opportunity to land a hit against a political opponent, veering sharply off-script with divisive speech and quickly setting off a furor.
The Voice
I'm not one who watches reality shows, but there is one that captures my total each season, especially in the final performances ... The Voice. I generally don't have time to watch the performers' back stories so I record the show and listen to the performances the next day.
From the silly antics of the four coaches each season, to the staging, fashions, hair, make up, and most of all the unbelievable performances by hopefuls in the world of music. I sit there each week enjoying the final live performances, wondering how they manage to get all of that together in one week. Truly amazing. More than that, from all of this talent, how does one chose a winner? I know ... The audience votes on their favorite performer but it's got to be hard when everybody is so talented. It comes as no surprise that the show is in it's 13th season. I can see it continuing till ... the end. Good luck everyone.

VOLCANOES
Have you noticed the number of volcano and earthquake reports that are in the news? Between the Ring of Fire, and the Mid-Altantic Ridge activity, our planet is definitely rattling and rolling. The Bali Airport (picture above) had to close and mass evacuations were mandated.
On YouTube, Dutchsinse publishes regular videos on the daily earth activities, and it is fascinating to see the number of earthquakes in a graphical video.
Monday Memos
Today is Cyber Monday. It's a great day to shop if you know how to navigate the internet. From Expedia.com, one of my favorite places, to eBay.com, and if you go to NBC The Today Show, you will pick up some great pointers.
Otherwise, it's back to work and normal routines, for many who were away over the Thanksgiving weekend. I hope you enjoyed your time as you return focus to your normal programming and experiences.
On a personal note, today I find out the fate of my computer. Can it be fixed or do I need to buy a new Mac? To be continued ...
As a fan of Meghan Markel, I am happy to announce that she has found her Prince, as they officially announced their engagement today, though many of us feel they've been engaged for months. For some of us old timers, this takes us back to another royal wedding between a Prince and another American actress - Grace Kelly who married the Prince Rainier III of Monaco in April 1956. In the Magic Kingdom we call Earth, we need happy endings wherein people get to share their lives together to the end no matter what obstacles they incur. I've been a fan of Meghan since her days on the TV series Suits and hope that her demise on the show does not mean they're going to kill her off. Her character is about to marry in Royal fashion on the show. 2018 will be a memorable year but those of us who follow ...
As many of us are connected to events in ancient Egypt, often seeing ourselves there in various spiritual roles, at this time, we look at Friday's massacre in a mosque in the Sinai resulting in the death of over 300 people. It would appear that the human algorithm has always been a killer!
Sunday, I watched the film John Wick 2, noting how actor Keanu Reeves was back in his old form as Neo in The Matrix. There was a subway scene which again connected me to The Matrix. As I was unfamiliar with the John Wick series, I also was not prepared for .... the appearance of actor Laurence Fishburne ... another connection to The Matrix. The film sets up a third in the series which could turn out to be a trilogy much like The Matrix. At one point I thought Trinity would show up ... or even better The Oracle. Just fun stuff as you as we meander consciously through the Matrix of this reality.
Until the Alabama election on December 12, many will follow the dramas of controversial former judge and politician Roy Moore. One would imagine the people who live in that state would be knowledgeable about who he is and what he did. On Thanksgiving, as friends and neighbors drop by throughout the day, one of them was a senior at Auburn University in Alabama majoring in Human Resources. I was surprised when she looked at me blankly having no knowledge of the Roy Moore affair. I guess we place our focus where we are programmed at any given time in the matrix of reality.

Eco Therapy
With days getting shorter, many people who suffer from depression and related disorders develop Seasonal Affective Disorder or SAD. I've blogged this many times in the past, as people go in search of answers, feeling tired, unmotivated, frustrated, and depressed. Even things that pass the time, such as reading, watching TV, and the internet, may seem boring - been there - done that - what's next without resorting to substance-abuse and medication?
This year, emotions are heightened by events that include healthcare, money, natural disasters, climate, stress, and anxiety about our current unpredictable president's behavior. Did you ever consider that it's all part of a greater plan? You can protest wherever and whenever, but things are going to play out, as is programmed.
Truth is surfacing about reality, but on a soul level - the eternal questions of why we are here, and where it's all going, nudging away at souls who will one day enlighten to the fact that they evolved in a programmed illusion - here today - gone tomorrow.
I have blogged about the benefits of being in nature, as a healing tool. Recently, someone mentioned the term Eco Therapy - parks vs. pills - to relieve the stress of shorter days with less sunlight.
You all know the benefits of being in nature and have spiritually connected one way or another. It creates temporary balance in brain chemistry to get you through the day. It's a healing tool, like deep breathing, meditation, martial arts, and yoga ... Still the mind ... Quiet the chatter that some people live with on a daily basis.
The inability to heal emotional problems and stop creating physical reactions and disorders is very frustrating to both humans and healers. Sadly, this is the programmed algorithm we are here to experience, along within the full gamut of emotions.
Ellie in nature ... I am lucky, in so far as I live across the street from a large park ... with the Atlantic Ocean at my "doorstep". From dawn to dusk, I feel surrounded in nature and its beauty. Every night, I watch the sun set over the Verrazano Bridge in brilliant color spectrums that make me stop and admire them. As they mix with the clouds, it's like watching creation telling me a story. Life doesn't get better than this. As I sit here now, I'm watching three boats slowly sailing under the bridge on the cold, but clear day in the city. What could be more balancing?
Try to find your place in nature. Connect, don't collide. Find a tree and hang a holiday ornament on it. As silly as that sounds, you might get a laugh out of it and, as we know, nothing is more healing than humor.

Another Fade to Black Reminder
Wednesday evening, I was talking to Linda Z about the unique synchronicities we have shared and how it all goes back to Coney Island where two little girls grew up three blocks apart in the matrix of an amusement park area. Linda had explained that she has always been connected to overlapping circles, even planning her college research reflecting that algorithm.
Now, let's get to the good part of the story... as we sat there talking, she wanted to know a bit more about the fade to black experience. I gave her the Cliff Notes version as we plan to meet Tuesday for lunch to discuss more.
Suddenly, as if I said the magic words "Fade to Black," my computer monitor went to black, startling me at the synchronicity of it all. The monitor returned to real-time for about one minute, then faded to black a second time. WTF ! This repeated a third and final time as if symbolic of third dimension then all was gone ... message received, over and OUT!
As a person who is always prepared, I have a back up monitor but somehow the connection between monitor and program is being missed, so Saturday morning I took Mac to a local Mac Repair Store for a diagnostic. I will have the results on Monday. The consensus is it's the video card.
You may be thinking it's time for a new Mac but I love the silver tower in which I dwell most days especially with its beautiful 30 inch cinematic monitor. I will fight to the death to keep Mac alive! Everyone from the people at Apple support to people who know about this type of machine say fix it.
On another note, a friend who lives in Southern California told me about swarms of earthquakes along the San Andreas Fault in recent days. He follows EC ... no, not Ellie Crystal .... well, that too ... but Earth Changes. Like many others in the Ring of the Fire he wonders about recent articles having to do with the slowing down of the Earth's rotation leading to increases in earthquake activity in 2018. I remember reading long ago that at the end of the cycle called "Time," frequency accelerates as magnetics decrease, all part of end times once again. Don't you somehow sense that we're getting closer?
A quick note on Trump and Company ... though I know you're up to speed on most of the dramas and probably, like me, find them distractions or diversions that keep humans engaged. The only thing that came to me this week as I read about Jared Kushner was he could go to jail ... like father ... like son.
About the increase in sex scandals ... this will never stop unfolding and should not be a moment but a movement.
Saturday Update Repairs Underway
Repairs are taking a tad longer, and we have to "open her up," as they say, to make sure everything is in working order.
In the meantime, enjoy this weekend, and don't forget about Cyber Monday!
After that, next week will be all about tax reform and the December 8 deadline.

Friday Update
Hi! It's George, I just spoke to Ellie and she hopes that everybody had a wonderful Thanksgiving. Poor Ellie is at a loss without her 30 inch monitor and is still struggling with an iPad and cell phone,
She sent a few pictures from her Thanksgiving in Basking Ridge, New Jersey taken at her daughter Zsia's house yesterday.
If you're shopping today, on Black Friday, there's lots of bargains out there so good luck with your purchases. Ellie expects her replacement monitor today or tomorrow so stay tuned for more.
Some have become very inventive to skip lines and unfortunately do more than that.

Tuesday
More sexual allegations about men in power, as the list continues to grow and may never stop. If I was guilty I would be planning an exit strategy. -- Highlighting Jeffrey Tambor and Charlie Rose.
Remembering the spiritual and the fractured souls who just passed - Della Reese and Charlie Manson. I'm old enough to remember the highlights of their lives.
Loss: Part of our experience here is loss with its emotional repercussions. Time heals but what is Time?
You know how you read about something and it doesn't register until one day it does. On the matter of melting Permafrost - I've posted the articles and understand it is part of end times. This season on Scorpion they featured a segment about it and what could go wrong if toxic methane gas, buried for eons, got released into the air. But it didn't register for me until Sunday night when Madame Secretary addressed the issue and how close we are to annihilation unless a solution is found. Their main solution - peat moss.
As we watch the poles melting down and wonder about permafrost and rising sea levels (Miami's fight against rising seas) - we find this story A Huge Plume of Magma Is Bulging against Antarctica. Still waiting to see what lies beneath the ice. In duality we will find positive and negative events. All answers are revealed at the end of our story.
Political quakes: At a time when the European Union is facing a host of pressing problems from Brexit negotiations with Britain, to the rise of right-wing populism, to separatism in Spain's Catalonia region, the possibility of political instability in a normally reliable Germany sent tremors through Europe.
Duality in the social spectrum: Holidays bring out the worst and the best in people, not to mention heightening emotions in an already unstable climate. How are you doing these days?
Happy Birthday to the Crystalinks readers born in Sagittarius.
Sagittarius is a mutable fire sign ruled by Jupiter.
Happy Thanksgiving 2017
Thanksgiving opens the door to the Holiday Season as another year ends.
Many will reflect on how difficult 2017 has been at home and abroad. It's been a whiplash year of developments, enough to awaken even the most spiritual person about the fate of reality. That which has been abused and hidden is now coming to the surface. Along with that we find the predictable increase in all the things I've blogged about over the past two decades from climate change, to natural disasters, to imploding paradigms in the human condition and more.
Many American families will celebrate Thanksgiving in ways they never imagined one year ago as the human spirit presents with a different perspective on the flow of reality. If 2017 brought positive things to your life and to those you love and care about most, you are indeed fortunate. On the matter of enlightened human consciousness in 2017 - there were the usual healing and awakening events that go along with one's belief in their source of creation.
For those heading out to be with family and friends, travel safely and enjoy. Once again I'll be in New Jersey with my children, grandchildren, and extended family. It's been a positive year for us and we all appreciate it.
Tonight on ABC ... The American Music Awards hosted by Tracee Ellis Ross.
Mom Diana Ross will perform. I just checked out the list of entertainers and it
looks like a great show to open the holiday season - something for everyone.
This is the season many get nostalgic about family and friends from their past, whether they chose to or synchronicities prevail. Sometimes peering through that Looking Glass has a positive result and other times not so much, but always it is for a reason. For me, it's all about fun.
The avalanche of friends from my High School days continues, diverting my attention from the dramas of the world to something I can connect with. Though most have moved to the east coast of Florida, either full or part time, a few remain in NY.
How many Lincoln High School friends named Linda have surfaced? More than I can count. All went to college choosing careers in education in one form or another. My latest Facebook connection, Linda Zaccaro, with a "Z", added a few new synchronicities to the equation. She is another Aquarian, two weeks older than me, so of course our grids would synchronize in many ways as two nice Jewish girls from Brooklyn made it through life without drugs, drinking, or mental illness.
Here's an new interesting twist ... Linda and I attended elementary school PS 80 in Coney Island. Some of you may recall my history with that area, too lengthy to discuss, but magical.
In High School, we studied art and theater with the same teachers, went on to different colleges, became teachers and sought out artistic pursuits. Linda married and raised a family not far from an area Ralph and I thought about buying a home, yet something has always tied me here to Brooklyn. Ralph moved to Long Island after our divorce. If I had not moved to my current apartment by the water, I'm sure I would have been long gone but not to Florida.
Unlike the other friends from my past, Linda explored metaphysics back in the day when it was trendy, but with a different destiny than mine. She walked away from metaphysics for the same reasons I never connected - too many unstable people and too much drama resulting in the "plateau" feeling ... until we met again on Friday discussing reality from my perspective. something she plans to explore.
In another twist, 14 years ago, Linda and her niece Tessa made appointments to see about a deceased relative, but were unable to keep them. Linda remembered my name but didn't associate me with the girl she went to school with until she saw that Tessa and I are friends on Facebook and we both joined a group for former Lincoln High School students. Tesa followed the path of Reiki and Hypnotherapy living not far from my daughter Nikki in Westport, CT.
To be continued ...

Thanksgiving Week
Thanksgiving opens the door to the Holiday Season as another year ends.
As we move into Thanksgiving Week, many will reflect on how difficult 2017 has been, at home and abroad. It's been a whiplash year of developments enough to awaken even the most spiritual person about the fate of reality. That which has been abused and hidden is now coming to the surface. Along with that, we find the predictable increase in all the things I've blogged about for over the past two decades from climate change, to natural disasters, to imploding paradigms in the human condition and more. Many American families will celebrate Thanksgiving in ways they never imagined one year ago and yet the human spirit will prevail yet with a different perspective on the flow of reality.
You are among the lucky people, if 2017 brought positive things to your life and to those you love and care about most. On the matter of how much people have become enlightened in 2017 - there were the usual healing and awakening events that go along with one's belief in their source of creation. For those heading out this weekend, for a week away with family and friends, travel safely. Travel conditions look good across the country. Once again I'll be in NJ with my children, grandchildren, and extended family. It's been a positive year for us and we all appreciate it.
Mob Ties
Interstellar asteroid is given a name BBC - November 17, 2017
Notorious Sicilian Mafia "boss of all bosses" Salvatore "Toto" Riina has died from cancer in jail, aged 87. Riina was serving 26 life sentences and is believed to have ordered more than 150 murders.
A viral video showing hundreds of years of varnish being wiped off a centuries-old painting has horrified experts in the field. The short video was posted on Twitter by the art dealer Philip Mould, who hosts the BBC TV show "Fake or Fortune?" and was involved in the cleaning process, according to statements he's made to other news organizations. The clip shows someone glopping a gel-like substance directly on the face of a Jacobean lady pictured in a 1618 portrait and scrubbing it away with what looks like a paintbrush, almost immediately revealing the vibrant colors of the mysterious face beneath the aged yellow surface.
Math at the Met - Amid the museum's 2 million works of art lie numerous mathematical curiosities Scientific American - November 16, 2017
The Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City - known worldwide and hereinafter as "the Met" - is the largest art museum in the United States, and one of the ten largest in the world. Founded in 1870, it holds two million works of art, from antiquity to today, from all around the world. We propose here a guided tour of the Met's hidden math. The Met's collections include works of art with surprising mathematical content. These works span the globe, human history, and the Met's curatorial departments. They include numerals, shapes, perspective, astronomy, time, and games. (On a second tour, still in the planning stages, we hope to show you patterns, symmetries, and various mathematical activities.)
'Leonardo da Vinci artwork' sells for record $450m BBC - November 16, 2017
A 500-year-old painting of Christ believed to have been painted by Leonardo da Vinci has been sold in New York for a record $450m (£341m). The painting is known as Salvator Mundi (Saviour of the World). It is the highest auction price for any work of art and brought cheers and applause at the packed Christie's auction room. Leonardo da Vinci died in 1519 and there are fewer than 20 of his paintings in existence.
Have archaeologists found Buddha's remains? Cremated bones discovered
in a 1,000-year-old chest in China may belong to the 'enlightened one'
Gautama Buddha (c. 563 BCE/480 BCE - c. 483 BCE/400 BCE) is the primary figure in Buddhism. He is recognized by Buddhists as an enlightened teacher who attained full Buddhahood, and shared his insights to help sentient beings end rebirth and suffering. Accounts of his life, discourses, and monastic rules are believed by Buddhists to have been summarized after his death and memorized by his followers. Various collections of teachings attributed to him were passed down by oral tradition and first committed to writing about 400 years later. Buddha - In the News, Text, Pics
Gondwana
As we go back in time to find the secrets of Antarctica the focus turns to Plate Tectonics - Continental Drift - Crustal Displacement - Pole Shifts - Geology - Earth's Energy Grids - Global Warming - and more to uncover the ancient history of this once fertile land. For those into pseudoscience and Ancient Alien Theory, a glimpse of what lies beneath helps to unfold the unexpected revelations about human history. Everything is connected by either a land bridge or the grids that created and document this experiment.
More than 170 million years ago, Antarctica was part of the supercontinent Gondwana. Over time Gondwana broke apart and Antarctica as we know it today was formed around 25 million years ago. Gondwana was the largest continental landmass on Earth, covering an area of 100,000,000 km2 (39,000,000 sq mi) or 64% of today's continents. Located in the Southern Hemisphere, it incorporated several modern landmasses, including Antarctica, South America, Africa, Madagascar, and Australia, as well as the Arabian Peninsula and the Indian subcontinent, which have now moved entirely into the Northern Hemisphere. Gondwana was named by Austrian scientist Eduard Suess, after the Gondwana region of central northern India which is derived from Sanskrit for "forest of the Gonds". Read more ...
Antarctica wasn't always a land of ice. Millions of years ago, when the continent was still part of a huge Southern Hemisphere landmass called Gondwana, trees flourished near the South Pole. Now, newfound, intricate fossils of some of these trees are revealing how the plants thrived - and what forests might look like as they march northward in today's warming world.
Finding nothing new to blog about today, I decided to go out for a while. Along the way I met a neighbor in the food industry and asked him for a suggestion. He smiled and said, "Check this out" .... Bob Blumer's Dishwasher Salmon Recipe. Just a silly thing in this crazy world.
Politics and abuses on all levels highlight along with the return of Trump. If you like your share of political dramas to discuss today there are lots to pick and chose from as corruption will always run deep - Trumps, Clintons, Sessions and of course Roy Moore who should be gone for all the reasons you and I agree on. Whether Moore wins or loses, there is no good outcome for Senate Republicans. In a bipartisan democracy, as with anything that starts with the word "bi" the pendulum will always swing back and forth for experience. It's all about duality.
I often listen to the news when driving. Yesterday I heard something that stunned me - 50% of the population has high blood pressure. It seems to coincide with the increase in anxiety, depression, and substance abuse everywhere.
Stories of death and destruction after the Iran-Iraq 7.3 earthquake also take center stage. The aftermath of the quake is just starting to unfold. Recovery from natural disasters is an accelerating theme especially in areas were dwellings are poorly constructed..

Stargate :: 12 Around 1 To Create Physical Reality Grids
The posts below are connected reflecting the beginning, the middle, and the end of this edition of realty. Our saga, written hard against the backbone of history, is awash with mythic overtones, replete with revelations of mystical realities. It is our journey brought for into the element of time for your experience.
One would hope that major chaotic events such as this earthquake would ignite the humanitarian part of our programming as souls ban together to help each other. Sadly things will return to their normal politically driven programming in the future.
Sunday night I watched three of my favorite shows dealing with politics, terrorism, and espionage - NCIS LA, Berlin Station, and Madame Secretary. The audience and writers may think they know what's going on behind the scenes in the global panorama of politics, but the equations update too quickly. For those programmed for the high and lows, there will always be new connections with another set of circumstance that define reality and engage players. The Trump administration is a spike in the grids that diverts and deceives as some choose to speculate on who did what, when, and to who. If the grids didn't update, the audience would not remain engaged. Computer end program.
I never write about Saudi Arabia but as of late have mentioned internal political upheavals and their effect on the global picture. When I scrolled down the Wiki article, the Dilmun Civilization caught my attention with its references to ancient Sumer which takes us back to the beginning and how this biogenetic experiment came to be. Anunnaki The stone structures displaying pyramids with circles on top take me to the 1994 film Stargate when Daniel Jackson (James Spader) figured out how to open the stargate.
