Mercury Poisoning? Radiation? Cancer? Bentonite Clay to the Rescue!

I think one of Gaia’s greatest gifts to Humanity is Bentonite clay, aka Montmorillonite clay or “edible earth”.

It’s a powerful, safe detoxifier that is now on the “endangered” list as the government buys up the land where companies are sourcing this marvelous health product.

Native peoples have used this for centuries, but it’s another one of those god-given things that we all have a right to know about—but didn’t.

Bentonite is what they call “ionic”. It’s molecular structure causes it to magnetically attract heavy metals like mercury, and others that we don’t want in our bodies such as the ones from chemtrails like aluminum, as well as  lead and arsenic and binds to them so they can be expelled from the body. Its negative charge attracts bacteria and other impurities with positive charges and gives ‘em a big hug until they are eliminated together.

This volcanic clay also removes chemicals, pesticides and other pathogens and toxic substances from our bodies—both us and pets or domesticated animals.

One of the biggest causes of dis-ease today is inflammation—that’s internal. Bentonite can fix that.

There’s a reciprocal action here, too. Bentonite not only taketh away, it giveth back. It’s a calcium-rich product that replaces minerals in the body so it builds bone density. The government knows very well the advantages of Bentonite clay because NASA uses it to reverse the effects of osteoporosis that can plague astronauts on long space missions where there’s no gravity.

Bentonite clay can be eaten, drunk, or applied in a paste to the face as a facial mask to restore healthy skin and eliminate toxins and bacteria and for brushing your teeth. It kills the bacteria on the gums and makes teeth squeaky-clean with no fluoride or other toxic substances to deal with.

People with skin issues, such as melanoma, rashes or open cuts and sores can apply a Bentonite and water paste over a piece of gauze for rapid healing. It’s also great for insect bites and stings.

It’s a powerful detoxifier when used as a bath. There’s a slightly different product for that than the edible product but you mix a cup in a full bath with a non-metallic whisk and draw water as hot as you can stand it, soaking up to the neck for 20 – 30 minutes. Rinse, dry and moisturize and you’re on your way to a  purer, healthier body.

I was thrilled with not only how beautifully the clay mixed into the water in a homogeneous suspension, but that it didn’t stick to the tub at all.

Another way to do a heavy metal detox is to apply a clay pack to one entire hand or foot each day, switching to a different one every days. Leave the clay on for 10 to 20 minutes or until the dry, then rinse off.

Some people are instructed to use Bentonite clay as a treatment for the liver, pancreas, thyroid, etc. They apply a clay pack over the organ one quarter of an inch thick and leave it on for the doctor-prescribed length of time.

I decided to use Bentonite rather than have my amalgam fillings removed so I’m using it for mercury detox, specifically, but whatever other benefits it provides along with way are welcome.

I have a glass of warm water morning and evening mixed with 3/4 of a teaspoon of the Red Desert Clay and have no issues with that. It has no taste, and looks like a latte.

Prices on various health packs vary from distributor to distributor so if you decide to get clean, check around. The company recommended to me in California ran out during a sale, so I found a place just south of me in Tucson that supplies the same basic products for much less and had my clay the next day. They use UPS to ship because some shippers use radiation to x-ray parcels which can have a negative effect on the clay, whereas UPS doesn’t.

The clay should NOT be white. If it is, it’s been overprocessed, or isn’t Bentonite at all and there are no significant healing properties in it. Mine is cocoa-coloured, but they can vary from cream to cocoa to slightly reddish.

How do people know it works? One of the main ways people see results if they don’t have significant health issues that resolve, is that the whites of their eyes brighten up. That’s proof of a successful detox to me.

If you do your own research you’ll learn about even more benefits of Bentonite clay.

Be sure to consult a medical expert if you are taking prescriptions or supplements so the clay doesn’t negate their affects with its binding properties.

You can view a video provided by Marcus Freudenmann on using a clay detox program to treat and prevent cancer. He’s German, but now living in Australia, so he has charming accent and he’s very entertaining. He is promoting a special with the company in California that ran out of product for an unknown length of time but you can source it out somewhere else.

Third Major Oil Spill in a Week: Shell Pipeline Breaks in Texas

Did you hear that the government has made the airspace above Mayflower, Arkansas, the site of the earlier oil spill, a No-Fly zone? That’s right. They don’t want media helicopters taking photos of the ravaged town and showing the true extent of the damage to the public as they did after Sandy Hook.

And now this… simply outrageous. We need to stop using these fossil fuels and use safer, cleaner, less expensive or free energies.

Are these all accidents? Seems a little suspect to me.

Thousands of gallons of oil have spilled from a pipeline in Texas, the third accident of its kind in only a week.

Shell Pipeline, a unit of Royal Dutch Shell Plc, shut down their West Columbia, Texas, pipeline last Friday after electronic calculations conducted by the US National Response Center showed that upwards of 700 barrels had been lost, amounting to almost 30,000 gallons of crude oil.

By Monday, Shell spokespeople said inspectors found “no evidence” of an oil leak, but days later it was revealed that a breach did occur. Representatives with the US Coast Guard confirmed to Dow Jones on Thursday that roughly 50 barrels of oil spilled from a pipe near Houston, Texas and entered a waterway that connects to the Gulf of Mexico.

Coast Guard Petty Officer Steven Lehman said that Shell had dispatched clean-up crews that were working hard to correct any damage to Vince Bayou, a small waterway that runs for less than 20 miles from the Houston area into a shipping channel that opens into the Gulf.

The spill was contained, said Lehman, who was hesitant to offer an official number on how much crude was lost in the accident. According to Shell spokeswoman Kim Windon, though, the damage could have been quite significant. After being presented with the estimate that said as much as 700 barrels were found to have leaked from the pipeline due to an unknown cause, investigators determined that 60 barrels entered the bayou.

“That’s a very early estimate–things can change,” Officer Lehman told Dow Jones.

Meanwhile, though, rescue works in Arkansas have been getting their hands dirty responding to an emergency there. A rupture in ExxonMobil’s Pegasus pipeline late last week send thousands of barrels of oil into the small town of Mayflower, around 25 miles outside of Little Rock. Authorities evacuated more than 20 homes in response, and by this Thursday roughly 19,000 barrels had been recovered.

Another incident in Canada this week caused an estimated 400 barrels — or roughly 16,800 gallons — of oil to be compromised in northern Ontario when a train derailed. Originally, Canadian Pacific Railway Ltd said only four barrels were lost in the accident.

RT: Keystoned? Exxon under fire as 10k barrels of oil spills on streets, floods Arkansas town

Thanks to Jean Haines for bringing this to our attention.

Another story not covered by the lamestream media.

Many thanks to the Reader who shared this and who said: American Environmentalists howled at the thought of an operational pipeline from the Tar Sands of Canada claiming that there was every conceivable reason to suspect (1) it wouldn’t be built right and (2) a devastating spill would most certainly occur because it hadn’t been designed correctly and implemented with adequate environmental safeguards.

 Well now!  It would appear that these sane and reasonable assertions offered to the President in protest have come true!

Thanks, M!

ExxonMobil is continuing cleanup operations after an oil pipeline spilled thousands of barrels of Canadian crude in Arkansas. The spill has led many to speak out against oil sands exploitation and the construction of Keystone XL pipeline.

Exxon’s Pegasus pipeline – which can carry more than 90,000 barrels of Canadian Heavy crude oil per day from Patoka, Illinois, to Nederland, Texas – was shut down after the leak was discovered on Friday in a suburban area near the town of Mayflower, Arkansas.

Shocking amateur video recorded by a resident that went viral, showing the immediate aftermath of the spill as streets flooded and oil burst forth:

“The smell is quite horrendous both outside and inside our home. There is a strong smell of oil in our vehicles, as well,” resident Chris Harrell told RT.

Twenty-two homes have been evacuated so far, and more are expected. “Excavation is necessary as part of an investigation to determine the cause of the incident,” Exxon spokesperson Alan Jeffers told Reuters.

The accident has left evacuated residents seeking shelter elsewhere. “Basically if it doesn’t fit in our car we don’t have it right now,” local resident Ryan Senia said. He had previously listed his home for sale, but said the spill has forced him to take it off the market.

The spill totaled upwards of 10,000 barrels, according to an ExxonMobil press release. So far, about 12,000 barrels of oil and water have reportedly been recovered. The company has deployed 15 vacuum trucks, 33 storage tanks and 120 workers to the cleanup site.

“There are literally hundreds of cleanup crew people in our area…no one has a definite time frame on how long they will be here, but some people are saying months,” Harrell said.

A 3,600-foot boom was also installed near Lake Conway, and an approximately 51-centimeter pipeline was shut down to prevent the spilled oil from reaching the water. So far, no oil has reached the lake.

The cause of the spill is being investigated, and cleanup operations are being coordinated with the Department of Emergency Management and other local authorities.

Meanwhile, the community is anxious to see how the oil giant plans to handle the situation: “The major concern for many people in our neighborhood is the long-term impact, both environmentally and financially. For example, what is this going to do to our property values?” Harrell said. He added that many local residents are angry, and were not aware that the pipeline ran through the area.

Local media reported that journalists were barred from entering the site for over 30 hours following the disaster.

BTW, did you see what the BP Oil spill and it’s toxic cleanup with Corexit may have spawned?

Of course they can’t say it is definitely the cause, but since it’s the first ever seen, and shortly after the spill… what are the chances?

American scientists have confirmed the discovery of a two-headed bull shark foetus – believed to be the world’s first ever.

The single shark – with two heads – was found in the Gulf of Mexico, according to a study by Michigan State University and reported in the Journal of Fish Biology.

It was discovered by a fisherman when he opened the uterus of an adult shark in 2011, around a year after the Deepwater Horizon oil spill, in the Gulf of Mexico.

Just when you thought it was safe to get in the water..

The single shark, with two heads, was found in the Gulf of Mexico, by a fisherman when he opened the uterus of an adult shark

While other species of sharks have been born with two heads – including blue sharks and tope sharks – this is the first record of it in a bull shark.

Bull sharks are one of only a few species of shark that attacks humans, and are also popular with fisherman, as they put up a ‘good fight’.

Michael Wagner, MSU assistant professor of fisheries and wildlife, told the Register: ‘They’re hardy little critters.

‘But despite this, the two-headed specimen probably would have died after birth. It was near-to-term, but should have been a lot larger – the body looks to have invested so much energy in growing a separate head that the rest of the body was foreshortened.’

MRI scans of the shark revealed two distinct heads, hearts and stomachs. The rest of the body then rejoined to form a single tail

BICEPHALY  – WHERE TWO HEADS ARE NOT BETTER THAN ONE

The condition of having more than one head is known as polycephaly, with two-headedness described specifically by the terms bicephaly or dicephaly.

But the creatures rarely live beyond a few months.

Each head of a polycephalic animal has its own brain, and they share control of the organs and limbs, though the specific structure of the connections varies.

Such animals often move in a disoriented and dizzy fashion, with the brains ‘arguing’ with each other leading some specimens to simply zig-zag without getting anywhere.

In snakes, each head may attack and even attempt to swallow the other.

Most of the two-headed creatures shortly after birth, and in this case the creature died shortly after it was discovered.

Mr Wagner said there were many  more cases of two-headed lizards and snakes, because they are often bred in captivity where breeders can observe and monitor the oddities.

After it was discovered, the shark was taken to the marine science department at Florida Keys Community College and then to Michigan State’s campu where Mr Wagner and his team used magnetic resonance imagining (MRI) to study it.

They revealed two distinct heads, hearts and stomachs.

The rest of the body then rejoined to form a single tail.

While the professor noted in his research that some may link the deformed shark to exposure to pollutants, to link it to the Deepwater Horizon oil spill would be ‘unwarranted’.

He added: ‘We simply have no evidence to support that cause or any other.’

According to the International Shark Attack File, there were 80 instances of unprovoked shark attack against humans in 2012, with seven deaths.

Landslide on Washington’s Whidbey Island Takes out Homes [video]

There’s so much going on these days it’s difficult to keep up!

Gaia is clearly on the move and her mantra seems to be ‘shake, rattle and roll’.

This was a significant slide on March 27th which took out at least one home and left others at the precipice leading to evacuation. No casualties, fortunately.

ETs/EDs Report Influx, But Don’t Understand It; Bizarre and Unexplainable Phenomena

Looks like John Kettler’s back…

Some interesting things have been reported by various folks on and off the Internet and it appears that much is unpredictable and illogical at the moment, so be prepared for anything. It’s like a major short-circuit, planet-wide. Call it The Pendulum Effect, if you like.

For example, one of the OPPTrs shared on Facebook that she was handing an envelope of Courtesy Notices to the postal clerk but as she and he realized she’d neglected to include her return address, the envelope, of its own volition, snapped right back to her from his hand and neither one could believe their eyes.

A colleague suddenly experienced difficulty starting her car this week. She took it in for diagnostics and of course they had no problem with it after starting it ten times or so, and it required no servicing. The really interesting part was that I had to have my starter replaced the previous week and she was thinking her vehicle had the same problem.

I went out for lunch with visiting family and the same colleague said she didn’t feel well after eating at that particular restaurant. I never feel badly after eating out, but after that meal, I did NOT feel well until 7 pm that night. It’s almost as if our thoughts were intermingling and the power of suggestion was so strong that it affected what manifested for us in the physical.

We have never been in this position before—cosmicly, emotionally, spiritually, physically, mentally, or in any way. This whole process is brand new to all beings—even the Beings of Light—so it’s open season for all sorts of strange phenomena; positive and negative. 

It’s like spring weather. If things seem to be going downhill—wait 5 minutes. It’ll probably change. As the temperatures and weather systems in springtime fluctuate wildly, so are the energies on the planet. Soon they will probably settle down and we’ll be into consistent positive and agreeable patterns where only what we desire manifests. It’s a good intention to have, anyway. And so it is.

ETs/EDs (Extraterrestrials/Extradimensionals) of the Liberation Forces are all excited about, but by no means fully grok, the arrival, in their dimensions and now showing up here, of enormously powerful energies. They seem to be tied to the unprecedented solar anomaly recently reported by NASA and sent out as an alert to numerous subscribers. Beyond that, the gigantic solar feature seems to embody both promise and peril. Information from the ETs/EDs, one Ground Contingent and a few other sources indicate the feature is tied to an easy dimensional transition on one end and disaster on the other. Since the world’s still here, or I perceive it as being so, I’m fairly sure we weren’t all wiped out!

ETs/EDs & Other Sources Note Strong Energetic Oscillations

And well do I know it, having been lashed by ferocious energies which bring joy one day, then two, only to veer into one disaster and debacle after another. In my case, after trying everything I could from an intermediary’s E-mail (no Internet here then), I got an unexpected call from a new friend, and this person, who’s highly phone call averse, made quite a bit of time available to really talk to me. Wonderful, and all the more so because I’d just come off a an emotionally rocky patch. That was followed by a wholly unexpected call from another mutual friend, someone I’d tried beyond everything to reach. Of course, it helps to have the right last name! Even my contacts can do only so much when hamstrung thus.  Wunderbar! Which is when the wheels fell off the trolley, as the Brits put it. In short order, I had a business colleague to whom I’m senior running amok, resulting in acute stress, hours on the phone, stacks of memos and more. Such Internet as I had (pathetic signal strength one of 5 on a 4G hookup) collapsed, my computer went wonky, etc. When I got that sorted, numerous tries and retries failed to get me into my site. Gah!  How that ultimately got resolved was in the last post, but it runs from okayish to stone cold dead Internet.  Today, it was dead, but I somehow revived it. Settings keep changing on their own, or so it appears. But that’s nothing compared to having nearly 900 words of almost completed, saved repeatedly, post vanish while doing a Save Draft! Nor do my E-mails leave copies anymore in the Sent folder.

Meanwhile, my friends were going through the same whipsawing. One manifested a recent model car–without credit or a job–yet is in an all-out effort to get support, to include for children. Another’s doing much better, but is so far in the hole financially that job opportunities are being lost because of the debt load. Another, who’s recuperating, has had a siege of crazy and/or dangerous roomies, other patients and hordes of visitors, plus some amorous staff on the adjacent bed, with nothing but a privacy curtain in place!. This person has not only been slammed like cars in a pileup, but had a pet nonprofit decertified by the government and was pretty much stopped dead on a huge book project when key research tapes were not to be found. And my E-book was dead in the water, too, stymied because certain material simply wasn’t showing up and also  in danger of losing credibility because I couldn’t reach a primary source to check a provocative but likely dubious set of claims.

The pendulum’s since swung back to the good side. Sort of. The ETs/EDs have done yeoman work to stabilize all sorts of dangerous situations, but are baffled that while everything’s changed, pretty much nothing’s changed here in external, mass consciousness reality. That awful (shielded pedophile priests) Ratzinger/Benedict XVI’s been replaced, after he was apparently forced out by behind the scenes legal pressure, only to be replaced almost instantly. By a Jesuit! The word is his cassock may not be clean, either, for there are assertions he was involved in the “Dirty War” in Argentina, when torture and disappearance were the order of the day for those opposed to the junta. Venezuela’s Hugo Chavez is dead, and there are some who are looking for other suspected clones to follow. This is theoretically to be expected, given multiple reports the clone regeneration facilities have been destroyed.

Several people in my diverse circle are now doing better. A room change resulted in nicer and sane roomies for the recuperating one. People who were down are both more balanced and chipper. Various interventions may yet save the nonprofit, and the tapes, thought to have been thrown out, are now known to be squirreled away in a pack rat’s house.  The book project is going full bore, which is potentially life-changing good news. For several people. I’ve given up waiting for the chunk of data to arrive and have done, elsewhere,  substantial pruning of what’s presently unproven speculation. Mind, this doesn’t make putting together a standard and visual glossary (pics and hypermedia) any easier! I, too, am in better shape, with some of the worst stressers now under at least a semblance of control and at least relative calm once again appearing. Whew!

Are you,  my readers, noticing anything like this radical shifting from things going one way, then abruptly shifting direction? So far, it seems to be affecting the same people who’ve been fighting an uphill fight to survive, while the sleepers simply go about their (oblivious) business. For those awake, this process seems to bring all the emotional dreck boiling up from our innermost recesses, enormously complicating merely coping with all the upheavals!

Per the ETs/EDs, one Ground Contingent and some other means, this whipsawing detailed above is the result of the instability of the in-rushing energy, and it’s also manifesting itself in the ley lines, complicating all sorts of operations here. Further, sinkholes are appearing all over the place, providing alarming evidence of our planet’s becoming less cohesive by the day.  The ETs/EDs are no better off than NASA. In no way do they have this figured out.
ETs/EDs Say “Watch For Purple Plants!”

What we do know is this. The shift, whatever it ultimately turns out to be, will be heralded by the mind-boggling appearance of purple plants or purple’s infusing into the current color palette of our flora. It has been happening on other worlds, but the ultimate result remains unknown here.

UFOs: Why The Cover Up? Why The Disclosure?

UFOs are a growing topic of interest for many on the planet. As we move through 2013 and beyond more people are becoming aware that the subject of UFOs is taken extremely seriously by government and military agencies worldwide. When we think of UFOs, our mind can instantly turn to disbelief and ridicule, as well as develop a certain perception based on mass media, television and movies. One can go the other route, do some research and find that UFOs are indeed real, they are tracked on radar and military jets are scrambled to check them out.

UFOs Why The Cover Up Why The Disclosure

In the past few years, dozens of governments worldwide have admitted to having programs that study the UFO phenomenon, and official documentation released via the freedom of information act has allowed the public to actually have proof that UFOs engaged the interest of some high level people. Here is a list of  12 government documents out of thousands available that take UFOs seriously, discovered by historian Richard Dolan.  Not only that, we have had credible witness testimony from high ranking individuals in the military and political arenas. Click here to check out some of the credible witness testimony taken from various interviews. I am convinced that many UFOs are indeed extraterrestrial spacecraft, and given all of the evidence that’s presented itself in the public domain, I think over 50 percent of Earths population is united in their knowing of this fact. Knowledge on this subject is gained through research, making connections and personal experiences, realizing that we are not alone in the universe and never have been can be a paradigm shifting experience.

So why cover up the UFO phenomenon for so long? Most of the documents that are available in the public right now date back to the 1950′s. One reason for the UFO cover up is suppression of clean energy technology. Obviously, an important aspect of UFOs are how they operate and the propulsion systems they use. Many believe that the UFO phenomenon has a direct link to the energy industry, and that the mutli-trillionaires  behind  the energy industry  have put a large amount of time and resources into the cover up.  I wouldn’t be surprised, if you follow the money and who controls the supply of it, and then make the connection that most of the developed countries monetary funds are allocated into the department of defense,the ones that cover up the UFO phenomenon also own all of the planets resources and industries that we use in our everyday life. Here is the trailer for the documentary “thrive”, if you are wondering about the UFO phenomenon and how it is related to the energy industry I suggest you check it out.

Another reason for the cover up is for the continued control of the human race. If we know we are not alone, we  begin to see that there are many concepts of reality as well as our human history that we are not aware of.  Many new questions come into play, especially with regards to scientific information. Are these beings just extraterrestrial? Or are they extra dimensional? How do they travel from one star system to the next? Are they good?Are they bad? The mind can be taken on quite a journey if this information was suddenly let out into the public arena.

We already have the technology to take ET home. We have the technology to do anything you can imagine, but these technologies are locked up in black budget projects that it would take an act of God to ever get them out – Ben Rich, Former CEO, Lockheed Skunk Works

I am convinced that most researches of the UFO phenomenon are convinced of the human soul, and that these extraterrestrial beings are also aware of what we call the soul. Most of the fear and anxiety that can be brought up when thinking about extraterrestrials comes from a place of fear. It’s almost as if all of this information has been agreed to be put out, and the ones putting it out are watching to see what our reaction is to the phenomenon. The ones who have spent a tremendous amount of resources on covering up the UFO phenomenon, in my opinion have never had humanities best interests at hand, the fact that they are constantly covering up aspects of reality that could help us leap into a new type of existence and understanding for the human race isn’t a great aspect of our reality.  If extraterrestrials are real, more questions must be answered, the history of concealment of information on this planet has never really had good reasons for justification.  Who are we, where do we come from? How long have extraterrestrials been aware of our existence, if they have been around longer than we have, then they most likely know more to the story of the human race than we do. These are just a few of many questions that would arise if the lid was taken off the cover up in a more dramatic fashion. I’m sure the group of elite would love to have us believe that UFOs are a serious national security issue that creates cause for concern, but my heart, soul, research  and experience tells me other wise.  I am also convinced that some within the power structure, some involved with the secrecy and cover up strongly desire for this information to be released. Either way, the truth will keep presenting itself for us to see, and it’s no coincidence that sightings are increasing as human consciousness continues to expand, grow and evolve from a place of love, peace cooperation and understanding. Our true nature as human beings is a state of love, coming from the right place within us that resonates with us the most. I have a feeling as we connect with ourselves,our true natural state, more of our space brothers and sisters will keep showing up.

Why the disclosure? I strongly believe that the slow release of information and documentation has been done in order to slowly integrate the human race into the understanding that we are not alone. I also however believe that a large part of information release is connected to a manipulation campaign. It’s definitely an interesting subject. How we take in this information and what direction we choose to go is totally up to us.  I believe information concealment goes into occultism, Illuminati, mysticism and a greater understanding about ‘science’ and the true nature of our reality. Either way you look at it, you cannot really debunk the existence of UFOs and extraterrestrial beings anymore.

Extraordinary: New Island Rises Off German Coast

A new island has been discovered off the coast
of Germany. Picture: Martin Stock/ LKN-SH

If this is any indication, 2013 will truly be an extraordinary year! Last year we saw photos of Atlantean structures at the bottom of the sea, alien structures on the moon and Mars, a “UFO” on the floor of the Baltic, and pyramids appearing everywhere across the Globe, including Antarctica, and it looks like the revelations aren’t slowing down. Our Earth is definitely changing before our very eyes!

Extraordinary: New island rises off German coast

From: Daily Mail January 11, 2013 8:19AM

AN ISLAND the size of 25 football pitches has appeared seemingly out of nowhere off the coast of Germany.
The landmass, which is composed of sandbanks, gradually emerged from the violent waters of the North Sea over the past few years.
It lies 24 kilometres off the coast of Schleswig-Holstein in Germany’s far north in a stretch of coastline known as the Wattenmeer, a marine national park.
Nature lovers and yachstmen noticed the appearance of Bird Island – named after the seabirds who rest, nest or feed on the sand dunes that are up to almost five metres high.
Winds blew seeds from across Europe, and 49 species of plants have been detected on it.
Detlef Hansen, head of the national park, said: “This is, for us conservationists, anything but ordinary.”

Mystery Booms Heard Across the U.S. (From Arizona to Rhode Island) Within 24 Hours

Mystery Booms Heard Across the U.S. Within 24 Hours

(poleshift.ning.com)

Beginning near midnight on December 4th, unexplained booms and trembling ground was reported in 5 states across the U.S. within a 24-hour span.  Extending from Arizona to Rhode Island, this unprecedented and nearly simultaneous series of mystery booms vividly depicts diagonal stress being asserted across North America.

Georgia  (Dec 4th, 5th and 6th)

Columbia County Emergency Management Agency (EMA) director Pam Tucker tells WJBF News Channel 6 there have been several loud booms reported in the county over the last couple of days.

On Tuesday, Tucker tells us there was a distant loud boom reported in the the Pinebrook area off of Hereford Farm Road between 9:00 p.m. and 9:30 p.m.

On Wednesday, at 9:07 p.m., a county resident heard a loud rumble and he says his driveway is now lifted up with cracks in in and the road and sidewalks near his home are now cracked.

Then, Thursday morning at 5:00 a.m., a man and his neighbor both heard a loud boom on the 200 block of Louisville Road.

Tucker tells us officials are looking for the cause of the booms and rumbling.

Arizona (Dec 4) -

Jean Swesey was doing homework with her son in Cottonwood when it happened.

“It was a whole series of booms,” Swesey said. “Up to six or seven. It was fast, it went loud. We were quiet and then my daughter down the hall screams really loud, ‘Did you hear that?’ I sat there for a second and I heard another set.”

Swesey wasn’t alone. Residents in communities in and around Verde Valley and as far as Flagstaff called 911 or their police and fire departments to report the strange booming sounds.

“It sounded like thunder, but underground,” Swesey said. “Like muffled thunder. And all the dogs in the neighborhood, all of them that were outside all started barking at once.”

CBS 5 News first received reports of the explosion-like noises shortly after 5 p.m. Tuesday and began checking with law enforcement and government sources. The U.S. Geological Survey reports no significant earthquake activity in Arizona that could have created the booms.

The Yavapai County Sheriff’s Office had deputies in the area who either heard it or tried to respond to resident calls. They found nothing.

The Sedona Fire District dispatched a crew to check a report of a strange odor, but that was unfounded and may not be related to the sounds.

The Camp Verde Marshal also received a number of phone calls about the booms. Officers found no evidence of any explosions.

But the Verde Valley contains large expanses of uninhabited land. “Maybe when the light comes back they’ll find something,” said Gary Johnson of Sedona Fire.

Swesey sure hopes so. “It was just, ‘boom-boom-boom-boom-boom all over the Verde Valley.”

Texas (Dec 4)

“We started getting calls at 3:09 p.m. (Tuesday),” said Eric Meyers, Navarro County Emergency Coordinator. “The first calls were north of Corsicana in the Hickory Hollow area with two separate residents out there reporting unusual tremors being felt along with a rumbling type of noise.”

“About two hours later, approximately five o’clock, there were additional reports in the same area of heavier tremors, the same vicinity, the same residents,” Meyers said. Another report came from the western part of the county, near Navarro Mills.

After the second round of reports, Meyers posted it on Facebook and suddenly there were more reports, but coming from all over, including Streetman, Purdon, Pursley and Dawson. Some of the reports came from as far away as Freestone and Limestone counties. The line runs about 50 to 60 miles long, and the tremors didn’t act like any other thing except perhaps earthquake booms, which are shallow sometimes undetectable tremors similar to what’s been happening locally.

“This is an unexplained event likely of a natural origin,” Meyers said. “We can’t come up with a point of origin or a cause or explanation of why this is happening.”

“We were trying to determine what was going on, any type of military exercises at a higher level than locally, we worked on this throughout the night and we eliminated everything we could think of and continued to do some through today,” Meyers said.

“We went through the process of elimination on what it could be and ruled out all these different things,” he said. “Whatever it was hasn’t occurred since 4 a.m. Wednesday. It’s unusual, to say the least.”
