Folks we have another 'official' estimated arrival date from an 'official' psychic extraordinaire...

Thankfully, he reckons the aliens come in peace.

He continued: “It won’t be an invasion. Wherever they come from - I think maybe two or three species out there - if they wanted to destroy us they could."

In fact, the aliens are concerned with how we’re handling things, and are coming to visit in order to give us some pointers.

He said: “They’re concerned we might press the red buttons and nuclear bombs will fly. They won’t want our planet destroyed.”

What’s more, the aliens are actually planning to put on quite the show for us, a notable change of tack from the grainy footage of ‘UFOs’ we have so far.

Geller continued: “There will be a Steven Spielberg type landing. I hope they land somewhere like the White House lawn or the Eiffel Tower.

“It will be the biggest revelation in history - religiously, archaeologically, everything. It will be like finding the Arc of the Covenant.”

Apparently ‘a massive disinformation campaign’ will be mobilised to try and undermine any further ‘whistleblowers’ like the ones who recently testified before Congress.

Quite how the US government plans to cover up a UFO landing on the White House lawn or the Eiffel Tower remains to be seen.

Another "government is up to no good" thriller, nicely done.




Monsanto acquired Agracetus in 1996. The first successful genetically engineered crop ever produced for the commercial market was the Roundup Ready soybean, produced at Agracetus in 1991, and was one of fourteen successful transformation events.



March 1989 - Initial US Patent application (Accepted in 1996)... "INDUCTION OF A PROTECTIVE IMMUNE RESPONSE IN A MAMMAL BY INJECTING A DNA SEQUENCE" Patent US-5589466-A

History of Wisconsin Crop Innovation Center (Originally known as Cetus of Madison, Inc.)

In 1984, Cetus Corp. sold half of its interest in Cetus of Madison, Inc. to the WR Grace Co. and subsequently the name of the company changed to Agracetus, Inc. (combining Grace/Cetus together). During this time Agracetus developed an electric “gene gun” and transformation methods that revolutionized the plant transformation process. Many plant species were subsequently transformed including; Tobacco, Peanut, Sunflower, Soybean, Maize, Cotton, Canola, Poplar, Wheat, Rice, among others. Research into cotton fiber quality, transformation process improvements, PCR method development, insect and disease resistance, and herbicide tolerance was ongoing in various labs in the facility. In 1990, WR Grace Co. acquired full ownership of Agracetus.

During the early 1990’s Agracetus ventured into research in DNA vaccines (using their improved “gene gun”) and contracted their plant transformation services to others within the industry, including the Monsanto Company.

You know what kind of "DeMoCrACy" arrests lawyers?

The Democratic Republic of North Korea.

The behavior of the marxist cell in Fulton County is not just un-American, it's anti-American. Going this hard to "prove" there wasn’t fraud, absolutely proves there was.

Xi is particularly counting on Russia and North Korea. The Russian and Chinese navies at the turn of the month sent 11 ships toward the Aleutians in an extremely provocative exercise. The effort was almost certainly intended to show that Moscow would fight with China against America over Taiwan. During the joint drill, the Chinese and Russians demonstrated progress in achieving interoperability by, among other accomplishments, developing joint command-and-control.
...
This week, the U.S. Navy's Carrier Strike Group 5, centered around the USS Ronald Reagan, has been steaming off the east coast of Taiwan.

Be glad it is there. China has been throwing a diplomatic tantrum — fiercer than usual — because the Biden administration allowed William Lai Ching-te, Taiwan's vice president, to make "transit" stops in New York and San Francisco on his way to and from Paraguay.

Beijing in response promised "resolute and forceful measures." There have been numerous Chinese air and naval provocations near the embattled island republic in the last few days. As soon as Lai arrived in New York, the Chinese foreign ministry called Taiwan "the core of the core interests of China."

So, will China go to war soon? And if war comes, will it embroil the world's great powers?

China's regime has already declared a "people's war" against America, and has been waging such a struggle with its "unrestricted warfare" tactics.

But what about a "hot war"? War between China and the U.S. over Taiwan, as Henry Kissinger said in early June to Bloomberg, is "probable." China can still be deterred — the presence of the USS Ronald Reagan is almost certainly giving the Chinese military second thoughts — but one thing looks increasingly likely: If there is a war, Russia and North Korea will fight alongside China. The world is dividing into camps.
...

Perhaps of greatest concern is that all three regimes share a nuclear weapons doctrine of "escalate to de-escalate" or "escalate to win": threatening the use of nuclear weapons to keep others from defending their intended victims. Xi and Putin appear capable of actually using their most destructive weapons. Kim in this regard is an unknown, but both his father and grandfather believed in taking everyone down with them. "If we lose, I will destroy the world," said Kim Jong Il, father of the current North Korean leader.

Will China, Russia, and North Korea Launch Their Nukes?

For decades, the United States gov't has steadfastly refused to rule out the preemptive or preventive use of nuclear weapons, and has threatened to do so on more than a few occasions, including against...North Korea in 1950, 1953, 1976, and 2017, and more recently...

On March 28, 2022, the Biden administration sent to Congress a revised version of its classified National Defense Strategy. The new version removed the longstanding doctrine of “no first use” of nuclear weapons, and opened the door to a nuclear response to a non-nuclear threat. Within months of the new U.S. policy, but without referring to it, the Putin administration responded that it might consider first use in case of an existential threat to Russia, including a non-nuclear one.  More recently, Sergei Karaganov, head of the Council on Foreign and Defense Policy, a non-governmental Russian think tank, argued that perhaps Russia should use a low yield tactical nuclear weapon in order to convince NATO to back off and stop threatening Russia’s security.

August 24, 1968: Operation Canopus was the codename of the first French two-stage thermonuclear test. It was conducted by the Pacific Carrier Battle Group (nicknamed Alfa Force) at the Pacific Experiments Centre near Fangataufa atoll, French Polynesia. The test made France the fifth country to test a thermonuclear device after the United States, the Soviet Union, the United Kingdom and China. Foreign assistance: Purchased heavy water from Norway to make tritium. Suspended from a tethered balloon 1,706 feet above the atoll, the device exploded with a yield of 2.6 Megatons.



Silent official footage of the “Canopus” test:

November 1, 1987 By Gary Milhollin
Foreign Policy | Winter 1987-1988, p. 100-119

It now appears—for the first time in history–that a country has broken the peaceful-use pledge. It also appears that a second country may have broken it, that a third is threatening to break it, and that the civilian exports of a fourth—possibly made without the pledge—have gone freely into bombs. The culprits are, respectively, Israel, France, India, and Norway. Israel has been making plutonium with Norwegian heavy water for more than 20 years and, according to recent evidence, putting the plutonium into bombs; India has been making plutonium with U.S. heavy water for about the same period and is threatening to put that plutonium into bombs. Norway has exported heavy water that France has used to build a thermonuclear arsenal. If these countries can undermine the pledge and avoid the consequences, there is no reason why others will not do the same.


France built the reactor and extraction plant secretly in the Negev desert, at a site called Dimona. There is no doubt that France meant to allow Israel to make nuclear weapons. Francis Perrin, high commissioner of the French atomic energy agency from 1951 to 1970, so admitted in an interview published on October 12, 1986, in the Sunday Times of London. Perrin said that after World War II, the United States agreed to allow the French scientists who had worked on the Manhattan Project to apply their knowledge at home, provided they kept it secret. “We considered we could give the secrets to Israel provided they kept it to themselves,” Perrin recalled in the interview. He confirmed the construction of the reactor and the extraction plant, and the cooperation on weapons design. The transactions and their related documents are presented in detail in La deux bombes (1982), a book by the French journalist Pierre Pean.

To understand the transfer of heavy water to Israel, several points must be kept in mind:

    The reactor at Dimona is Israel’s only means of making plutonium, and plutonium is Israel’s primary nuclear weapon material. Dimona also is the only facility in Israel that uses heavy water in metric ton quantities. When Dimona opened in 1963, the world’s main heavy water suppliers were the United States and Norway. Israel was producing heavy water only in laboratory quantities. Therefore, it was physically impossible to start Dimona without U.S. or Norwegian heavy water.

    France and Canada also possessed heavy water in the early 1960s, but Canada has never exported any heavy water to Israel, and all of France’s heavy water had been imported previously from the United States and Norway. France pledged not to re-export it without permission. Thus even if Israel had received a secret shipment from France, the water would have been diverted illegally from U.S. or Norwegian stocks, giving Israel no right to use it.

    Therefore, all the heavy water Israel imported for Dimona must have come initially from the United States and Norway.

    Reactors like the one at Dimona lose only about .5 per cent of their heavy water each year. So if U.S. or Norwegian heavy water went to Dimona in 1963, more than 85 per cent of it is still there today.

France’s Stunning News

On May 22, 1980, the French national assembly received a remarkable document from the commission on national defense and the armed forces. The commission reported that France was making tritium in two reactors called Celestin I and Celestin II. According to the French government’s nuclear agency, Cogema, Celestin I went critical—that is, achieved a chain reaction—on May 15, 1967, and Celestin II on October 30, 1968. Cogema noted that the reactors were making tritium “used for thermonuclear armaments.” Tritium produces fusion in thermonuclear bombs and is bled into the core of fission bombs to boost or vary their yields. The report disclosed that the reactors were cooled and moderated by heavy water. That was stunning news because when they were started, France had no heavy water of its own to put into them.

Lengthy story continues: Heavy Water Cheaters

The 1998 film Godzilla uses the "Canopus" test as the basis for the origin of the mutated monster. However, the footage in the movie is actually of the United States "Baker" Test, part of Operation Crossroads in 1946. This was the famous underwater nuke detonation you see in many movies.


August 24, 1814: British troops led by Major-General Robert Ross invaded Washington, D.C. during the War of 1812. The Burning of Washington ensued, with British forces setting fire to key government buildings, including the White House and Capitol. Less than four days after the attack began, God decided to save Washington and drive out the British troops by sending a heavy thunderstorm, possibly a hurricane and a tornado which extinguished the fires, though it caused further destruction, but it did send the British packing back to their storm beaten ships. The British occupation of Washington only lasted for roughly 26 hours. This event marked a significant episode in the war, leaving the US capital in ruins. Today, some delusional wacky traitors believe the J6 insurrection circus was worse.

Moral Pieces, in Prose and Verse (1815) by Lydia Sigourney

THE CONFLAGRATION AT WASHINGTON.

WHAT sounds are these, that on the hollow blast
Of startled midnight reach the list'ning ear?
They seem like shouts of conquest, join'd with shrieks
Of mad despair, and the confusion wild
Of those that fear or fly. And see the flames
In spiry columns burst thro' wreaths of smoke
Redd'ning the brow of night. O scene of woe!
That pile superb, whose lofty dome arose

With pomp and pride, aspiring to the skies,
Whose spacious halls once shone, with all that art
Or wealth could give, to dazzle and adorn,
A blazing pyramid of fire is seen.
Now its last ray illumes the glowing heavens,
Darts, sickens, and expires. What ruthless hand
Could spread the flames of vengeance, thus to blast,
Destroy, and desolate. Embers conceal'd
Of hatred and disunion, cherish'd long
By treachery's secret breath, and madly fir'd
By the wild torch of rashness, sprung to life.

Eternal Justice saw, and was incens'd;

And suffer'd them to rage; and lo! the flame
Has caught our fairest domes; it burns—it spreads,
And who shall quench it? Or with pow'rless strain,
Or hand so weak as mine, shall dare to paint
The horrors of that scene? The costly pile
Sinking in sheets of fire, and clouds of smoke;
The haste of flight, the agony of fear;
Pale apprehension, shuddering regret,
And misery, and tears? Ah! who shall bear
These shameful tidings, to our distant foes,
Nor shrink with anguish at his Country's wound?
Who, to the nations of the earth, shall tell
Her infamy, who once with noble front
Rank'd high among them? Who of all her sons
Can bear to gaze upon her eye, and say,
"Thy beauty is destroy'd, thy strength is slain?"
And when in future days, with downcast eyes,

Around these blacken'd walls they lingering stray,
And trace the mouldering ruins, and exclaim,
With pausing wonder, "Tell us, why was this?"
The burning blush will dye the hearer's cheek,
Grief chain the tongue! Then let oblivion's veil
In deepest folds forever shroud the scene!
Snatch the recording pen, from him who seeks
To make memorial of his country's shame;
From her stain'd annals rend the page unblest;
Break off th' unfinished lay; bid memory sleep,
Or hide her tablet from a future age.

Yet Oh! my Country! Who can hide thy loss?
Forget thy wounds, or mitigate thy woe?
Around is darkness, and within is pain;
Then let us look above! There is a ray
That gleams from thence, an angel voice that cries,
"Lift up the eye of faith; there yet remains
"Hope for the righteous; for the weary, rest;
"For the oppressor, vengeance." Still there reigns
A Judge Supreme, whom nothing can elude.
And though his step is sometimes on the deeps,
Shrouded in darkness, all his ways are peace,
Are wisdom, truth, and mercy. Tho' his throne
Is canopied with clouds, yet the meek eye,
Now drown'd in tears, and dim with mists of time,
Shall see, at last, its base was ever fix'd
On righteousness, and everlasting love.

In 1855, John D. Rockefeller got his first job. He was 16, making 50 cents a day bookkeeping. 2 years later...

August 24, 1857: Panic of 1857 - NY branch of Ohio Life Insurance & Trust Company failed, setting off one of the most severe economic crises in U.S. history. Stocks plunged, along with banks & businesses across nation and the collapse of Railroad Farm Mortgage (RRFM) bonds, led to depression lasting 3 years until beginning of Civil War.



Many panicked and fled finance. But not 18-year-old Rockefeller. He learned that speculation destroys far more wealth than it builds. He survived the calamities of the Civil War, financial crises of 1873, panic of 1893 & 1907, and Wall Street Crash of 1929.


August 24, 1923: The Somerset, Pa., PTA is bitterly divided over a proposed school dress code banning short skirts and bobbed hair. "Flappers" walk out of the meeting, chanting:

I’m a free-born American
And can show what I please."




August 24, 1923: A.C. Nielsen Co. is founded in Chicago by 25-year-old engineer Arthur C. Nielsen to do product research on generators and conveyor belts. The firm soon expands into broader industrial and consumer market surveys, with a sideline on measuring radio audiences.

In 1946, Nielsen Co. invents the Audimeter, a device that can be installed in radios to record and transmit data on what stations are being heard. This transforms the ratings profession, which had relied on mail and phone surveys to find out what Americans were listening to.



Audimeters are placed in the sets of willing participants, selected to represent a cross-section of households. In 1950, Nielsen acquires Hooper, previously the leader in radio ratings; the meters are then adapted to measure TV sets, an even more lucrative source of ratings. From 1952 and through the '50s Nielsen expanded with U.S. headquarters building by 60% and going worldwide, opening offices in Netherlands, New Zealand, Belgium, Germany, in 1954 Nielsen Station Index Service formed to provide local market TV audience measurement in U.S., European central operations facility in Switzerland (1955), Ireland, Sweden, Canada, and France...and continues expanding through the 60s.

Nielsen Ratings, or "the Nielsens," are make-or-break for the networks for much of the 20th century. The fracturing of TV in the digital era makes it impossible for any one index to rank shows, but Nielsen remains a going concern as it tracks both traditional and streaming TV.

If you're curious here's a Nielsen Historical Timeline from 1923 to 2017.

Modern problems require high-energy laser solutions...



The forbidden cube...

Northrop Grumman Corporation has delivered a miniaturized high-energy laser source to the U.S. government. The laser is ruggedized for field use and miniaturizing it allows for rapid placement in tactical situations.

The 10kW class high-energy laser, known as Phantom, is about 12 cubic feet (nearly the size of a mini fridge). Weighing less than 200 pounds, it enables lift, carry and installation by as few as two personnel. The Phantom customer will integrate it with other subsystems for testing and delivery to military customers.

Robert Fleming, vice president and general manager, strategic space systems, Northrop Grumman said: “By miniaturizing this advanced capability, we are expanding the reach of our technology and continuing to lead the way in high-energy lasers. Northrop Grumman is using its expertise in directed energy to deliver an extremely compact, lightweight and efficient laser for the warfighter.”

Someone bought the infamous Zorro Ranch...

Epstein's New Mexico ranch is sold for an undisclosed price to a newly registered company

SANTA FE, N.M. (KRQE) – The roughly 8,000-acre Zorro Ranch in New Mexico connected to Jeffrey Epstein was listed for sale for $27.5 million; and according to the Santa Fe County Clerks’ office – it was sold this month to San Rafael Ranch, LLC. A new warranty deed was recorded on August 16 for an undisclosed amount.

KRQE Investigates obtained documents confirming the change of ownership from Cypress Inc. to San Rafael Ranch, LLC. Records show Epstein and the Zorro trust bought the ranch from the Gary King family, then built his 33,339 square foot mansion there in the ’90s.

Two years ago, KRQE Investigates uncovered a fake warranty deed connected to the Epstein property in New Mexico. The Florida man associated with the fake deed later faced a federal indictment for allegedly hiring a hitman.

On Tuesday, an attorney for the Epstein estate confirmed to KRQE the sale of the Zorro ranch property.

    On behalf of the Epstein Estate, we confirm sale by the Estate of the New Mexico property known as “Zorro Ranch,” with the proceeds to be used for Estate administration, including payment of creditors.  While details of that sale (including the purchase price and buyer) are confidential, the Estate will disclose the sale in its next quarterly accounting to be filed in the St. Thomas, USVI probate court.

The LLC registered with the secretary of state's office in late July with the agent name of Charles V. Henry IV. Apparently, the Clinton's were frequent guests at the Ranch.



Paper and bamboo straws contain PFAS chemicals more often than plastic straws do, study finds



And have escalating side effects which may surpass the original "emergency."


How The Campaign To Ban Plastic Straws Got Its Start



In 1934, Hollywood photographer A.L. "Whitey" Schafer took this staged photo which mocked the Motion Picture Production Code (aka Hays Code), a set of moral guidelines that were applied to American films that were released from 1934 to 1968. The photo attempted to violate as many rules as possible in one image.



The Motion Picture Production Code stipulated the following:

"No picture shall be produced which will lower the moral standards of those who see it. Hence the sympathy of the audience shall never be thrown to the side of crime, wrong-doing, evil or sin. Correct standards of life, subject only to the requirements of drama and entertainment, shall be presented. Law, natural or human, shall not be ridiculed, nor shall sympathy be created for its violation.

Prohibitions on:
1. Nudity
2. Suggestive dances
3. Discussions of sexual perversity
4. Superfluous use of liquor
5. Ridicule of religion
6. Miscegenation
7. Lustful kissing
8. Scenes of passion"

The Hays Code stipulated that a kiss can only last 3 seconds. If you watch Hitchcock's movie, Notorious (1946), there's a kiss scene that lasts two and a half minutes. The actors just break off every 3 seconds.

Argus sought to determine if artificial radiation belts created a military advantage by degrading radio/radar transmissions, damaging satellites, and damaging or destroying ICBM arming and fuzing mechanisms. Argus II and Argus III took place on Aug. 30 and Sept. 6, respectively.



Coordinated by the Armed Forces Special Weapons Project, modified Lockheed X-17A rockets launched from the USS Norton Sound (AVM-1) about 1,100 miles southwest of Cape Town, South Africa, carried 1.7-kiloton W25 warheads high into the upper atmosphere.

Vid description:

DTRA's history begins with the Manhattan Project, which then split into the Atomic Energy Commission and the Armed Forces Special Weapons Project after WWII. The AFSWP became the Defense Atomic Support Agency in 1959; DASA became the Defense Nuclear Agency in 1971; DNA became the Defense Special Weapons Agency in 1996, and was one of the four agencies/programs that combined in 1998 to form the Defense Threat Reduction Agency. This film is about Operation Argus, a series of three high-altitude nuclear tests conducted by the Atomic Energy Commission in the South Atlantic Ocean in August and September 1958. The results of Operation Argus proved the validity of the Christofilos theory.

This theory proposed that a radiation belt is created in the upper regions of the Earth’s atmosphere by high-altitude detonations. The radiation belt affects radio and radar transmissions, damages or destroys the arming and fuzing mechanisms of Intercontinental Ballistic Missile warheads, and endangers crews of orbiting space vehicles that might enter the belt.

The tests, conducted in complete secrecy, were not announced until the following year. Low-yield devices were carried to an altitude of approximately 300 miles by rockets before being detonated.

More than 4,500 military personnel and civilian scientists participated in the test operation.

The tests comprising 1958 Operation Argus were as follows:

• ARGUS I, August 27, South 38.5 degrees, West 11.5 degrees, South Atlantic, rocket, weapons effects, 1-2 kt
  
• ARGUS II, August 30, South 49.5 degrees, West 8.2 degrees, South Atlantic, rocket, weapons effects, 1-2 kt
  
• ARGUS III, September 6, South 48.5 degrees, West 9.7 degrees, South Atlantic, rocket, weapons effects, 1-2 kt
  

Short clip (narrated by William Shatner) of declassified footage of Operation Argus aboard the guided-missile ship USS Norton Sound (AVM-1), one of nine ships carrying a total of about 4,500 personnel involved in Task Force 88:



Operation Argus was conceived and executed in just five months in order to complete it before a multilateral moratorium on atmospheric nuclear testing began on October 31, 1958 (so-called good-faith gesture accompanied by the start of US-UK-Soviet negotiations on a nuclear test ban).

August 27, 479 BCE: The Greek warriors annihilated and put an end to Persian ambitions at the Battle of Plataea. Greatly outnumbered, the Greek forces totaled 39,000 warriors while the Persian army under the command of King Xerxes I boasted 110,000. Despite being outnumbered the Greek hoplites' superior armor and tactics helped them withstand the Persian onslaught.

This ferocious battle was the final clash of the second Persian invasion of Greece with the victory of the allied Greek forces putting a final end to the Persian empire’s expansion.




August 27, 1883: Krakatoa in Indonesia erupted in four explosions, releasing energy comparable to 200 megatons of TNT. The sound traveled 3,100 miles, the pressure wave circled the earth 3 times and is considered the loudest sound in recorded history. It resulted in tsunamis and climate effects, including distinct sunsets, blue moons, and others that persisted for years.




August 27, 1896: Anglo-Zanzibar War, the Royal Navy bombarded Stone Town and sank the only ship in the Zanzibar Navy after Sultan Khalid bin Barghash rebelled against British rule. The Sultan surrendered 38 minutes after the conflict began, making the Anglo-Zanzibar War the shortest war in history. The sultan's forces sustained roughly 500 casualties, while only one British sailor was injured. Sultan Khalid received asylum in the German consulate before escaping to German East Africa (in the mainland part of present Tanzania). The British quickly placed Sultan Hamoud in power at the head of a puppet government. The war marked the end of the Zanzibar Sultanate as a sovereign state and the start of a period of heavy British influence.

Coming soon to RAF Lakenheath in Suffolk, England: dozens of B61-12 thermonuclear guided gravity bombs?


Increasing Evidence that the US Air Force’s Nuclear Mission May Be Returning to UK Soil

Note, the B61 is a low to intermediate-yield strategic and "tactical" nuclear weapon featuring a two-stage radiation implosion design. This nuke has a variable yield ("dial-a-yield" in nuke jargon) design with a yield of 0.3 to 340 kilotons in its various mods. The B61-12 as of 2020, underwent a 12th modification at $28 million per boom. Approx 400 were produced. The B61 can be set for airburst or groundburst detonation, and by free fall, retarded free fall or laydown delivery through the use of a parachute to slow down the weapon during release from the delivery aircraft. Manufacturer is the Pantex plant near Amarillo, Texas.

Note, the stepford Biden Administration neocons having been waving the tactical nuclear sabre since that clown stumbled into Office.

August 29, 2007: at Minot AFB, North Dakota, munitions crews mistakenly loaded a B-52H bomber with six Advanced Cruise Missiles, each armed with a live W80-1 nuclear warhead with a variable yield of 5-150 kilotons. The plane sat on the tarmac overnight without any special guards.



Nuclear Watch

Early the next morning, before takeoff, the B-52’s radar navigator closely inspected only the 6 missiles on the right-wing pylon, all of which properly carried dummy warheads. The pilot signed the manifest listing 12 unarmed ACMs as cargo without conducting a final verification.



This was supposed to be a routine fight supporting the USAF March 2007 decision to retire the ACM by ferrying the missiles stored at Minot to Barksdale AFB, Louisiana, for disposal (by August 2007, more than 200 unarmed ACMs had been safely transported to Barksdale). However, it was not routine.





The B-52 call sign "Doom 99" departed Minot at 8:40am and landed at Barksdale at 11:23am (both local times). The crew signed out and went to lunch. Again, there were no special guards. It wasn’t until 8:30pm, when munitions crews began unloading the aircraft, and that one person noticed something wasn't quite right.

Approximately 36 hours had elapsed from the time the armed missiles were mistakenly removed from their bunker at Minot to the time an airman noticed them on the B-52 in Barksdale. In all that time, no one realized they were missing or that they were left unguarded at both bases!!

As a result of this BENT SPEAR, 7 senior USAF officers were relieved of their commands or positions and reassigned, 65 airmen lost their Personnel Reliability Program certifications to work with nuclear weapons, and the secretary of the Air Force and USAF chief of staff resigned. The pucker factor went nuclear resulting in a lot of brown stains!

"Bent Spear" is an incident, which indicates "an unexpected occurrence involving nuclear weapons or nuclear components that does not fall under the NUCFLASH or BROKEN ARROW categories" or "a nuclear incident involving a nuclear weapon/warhead or nuclear component". In the Army and Air Force, this term includes a 'significant incident' as defined in DoD Directive 5100.52".

The AGM-129 stealth cruise missile is also intended to equip the USAF's new stealth bomber, the B-21 Raider.

August 29, 1949: the Soviet Union tested its first atomic bomb, internally code-named "First Lightning" in Semipalatinsk, Kazakhstan. The 22-kiloton RDS-1 device—codenamed Joe-1 by the United States, was basically a copy of the first plutonium-fueled implosion-type atomic bomb (the "Gadget") codenamed "Trinity" the US tested on July 16, 1945. The test was widely known as "RDS-1" (Россия делает сама, Rossiya Delayet Sama, which translate as "Russia Does it Herself") but, like US had help from German physicists. Oddly enough the Nazi physicist Hermann Oberth also said THEY had help too but from who or what??

August 31, 1957: at the Nevada Proving Ground, the United States conducted the 15th atmospheric nuke test, "Plumbbob Smoky", a 44-kt thermonuclear test detonated atop a 700-foot steel tower. Smoky created massive fallout, exposing 3,224 troops performing maneuvers to high levels of radiation.

Operation Plumbbob - Smoky 42947 (slow-motion view of the earliest stages of the Smoky fireball and mushroom cloud)



Vid summary:

The U.S. conducted 210 atmospheric nuclear tests between 1945 and 1962, with multiple cameras capturing each event at around 2,400 frames per second. But in the decades since, around 10,000 of these films sat idle, scattered across the country in high-security vaults. Not only were they gathering dust, the film material itself was slowly decomposing, bringing the data they contained to the brink of being lost forever.

For the past five years, Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) weapon physicist Greg Spriggs and a crack team of film experts, archivists and software developers have been on a mission to hunt down, scan, reanalyze and declassify these decomposing films. The goals are to preserve the films’ content before it’s lost forever, and provide better data to the post-testing-era scientists who use computer codes to help certify that the aging U.S. nuclear deterrent remains safe, secure and effective.

August 31, 1962: for the second time in two months and the fourth and final time since October 1961, a USAF PGM-19 Jupiter intermediate-range ballistic missile at Gioia del Colle Air Base in southeastern Italy was struck by lightning, partially activating its 1.4-Mt W49 nuclear warhead. The lightning activated the thermal batteries in the warhead adaption kit. Those power a warhead’s arming, fuzing, and firing system, timers, detonators, and several safety mechanisms, including environmental sensing devices like an accelerometer. On two occasions, tritium-deuterium "boost" gas was injected into the warhead pits, partially arming them.



In September 1955, Dr. Wernher von Braun, briefing the Secretary of Defense on long range missiles pointed out that a 1,500 mi (2,400 km) missile was a logical extension of the Redstone...thus Jupiter was born.

Jupiter missiles were used in a series of suborbital biological test flights. On Dec 13, 1958, Jupiter AM-13 was launched from Cape Canaveral, Florida with a Navy-trained South American squirrel monkey named "Gordo" on board. The nose cone recovery parachute failed to operate and Gordo did not survive the flight.

31 days later, the missile was again fully operational. By that time, the USAF had finally erected protective lightning strike diversion tower arrays at all Jupiter launch sites in Italy and Turkey...just in time for the October 1962 Cuban Missile Crisis.




August 31, 12 AD: Gaius Caesar Augustus Germanicus, better known by his nickname Caligula, was born. Grandson of Mark Antony, he ruled as the third Roman Emperor from 37 to his death in 41 AD. Initially popular, granting military bonuses and abolishing certain taxes, his reign turned tyrannical with extreme paranoia with reported erratic behaviors surpassing the stories of Nero with legendary cruelty, sadism, extravagance, and sexual perversion. Some attribute this to possible illness. Infamous acts include rumored plans to make his horse a consul and odd military commands. Assassinated in AD 41 by conspirators, his short reign remains highly controversial in Roman history.



On January 17, 2011, police in Nemi, Italy, announced that they believed they had discovered the site of Caligula's burial, after arresting a thief caught smuggling a statue that they believed to be of the emperor. The claim has been met with scepticism by well known Cambridge historian Mary Beard.

Sept 1, 1925: the crew of a Navy seaplane attempting a non-stop flight from California to Hawaii had to land in the ocean after running out of fuel. Realizing that their flying boat was now just a boat, the crew used fabric from the wings to sail the plane for 450 miles to Kauai. Arrived 10 days later, saved by the silent service.

Ten Days Lost At Sea: The First Flight (and Voyage) to Hawaii

Threatened by thirst, hunger, and sharks, the PN-9 No.1’s courageous commander led his crew to shore and safety.

The few sand sharks that began trailing their plane had grown in a few days’ time into a large and unnerving school joined by barracuda. When two fierce-looking 14-foot tiger sharks joined the mob, Bowlin became nervous. The “big black fellows” were “always waiting,” said Bowlin, “I guess for a choice bit of human flesh.”

Sept 1, 1983: Cold War: a Soviet Su-15 interceptor shot down a Boeing 747-230B operating as Korean Air Lines Flight 007 en route from New York City to Seoul after it accidentally strayed into restricted airspace over the Kamchatka Peninsula and Sakhalin Island, killing 269 passengers and crew, including Congressman Lawrence McDonald. The Soviets claiming that it was on a Measurement and signature intelligence (MASINT) spy mission. As a result of the incident, president Ronald Reagan issued a directive making American satellite-based radio navigation Global Positioning System freely available for civilian use, once it was sufficiently developed, as a common good.



At the time Congressman McDonald was also the second president of the conservative John Birch Society. Senator Jesse Helms of North Carolina, Senator Steve Symms of Idaho, and Representative Carroll Hubbard of Kentucky (who cancelled his reservations for the trip at the last moment) were aboard sister flight KAL 015, which flew 15 minutes behind KAL 007; they were headed, along with McDonald on KAL 007, to Seoul, South Korea, in order to attend the ceremonies for the 30th anniversary of the U.S.–South Korea Mutual Defense Treaty. The Soviets contended former U.S. president Richard Nixon was to have been seated next to Larry McDonald on KAL 007 but that the CIA warned him not to go, according to the New York Post and Telegraph Agency of the Soviet Union (TASS); this of course was denied by Nixon.


Space Operations Command was established on 1 September 1982 as Space Command (SPACECOM), which was the first dedicated space command in the United States Armed Forces. On 15 November 1985, Space Command was renamed Air Force Space Command (AFSPC or AFSPACECOM) to distinguish it from U.S. Space Command, Naval Space Command, and Army Space Command. On 20 December 2019, following the establishment of the United States Space Force as an independent service, Air Force Space Command was also redesignated as United States Space Force (USSF) and served as the transitional headquarters of the new service, but remained a component of the U.S. Air Force. On 21 October 2020, United States Space Force was redesignated as Space Operations Command and officially transitioned from a U.S. Air Force major command to a U.S. Space Force field command.

September 2, 1798: The first recorded bank robbery in U.S. history occurred at the Bank of Pennsylvania in Carpenter's Hall, Philadelphia. Thieves took $162,821, which would be worth about $4 million in 2023. It was the perfect heist, but then, ironically, the main thief, Isaac Davis, was caught when he began depositing the stolen money back into the same bank. Not the best move. He returned the money and received a full pardon. Interestingly, this robbery happened during the deadly yellow fever epidemic.

After Earth has been devastated by years of pollution and nuclear war, a group of scientists send out a team of young people as well as an intelligent chimpanzee to seek out the surviving pockets of human beings in order to help rebuild civilization. In their hi-tech RV (called Ark II), they study the land and help out those in need.

The Ark II vehicle was 44 ft long, built on the chassis of a 1971 Ford C-Series (C-700) dump truck. The truck was notorious for constantly breaking down between shots. It was also reportedly hard to operate in crowded areas safely because the placement of the windows was such that the driver of the Ark was unable to see clearly. The other vehicle, the Ark Roamer, was built on a Volkswagen van chassis from a modified "Brubaker Box" kit, and while it ran well, it had a limited range. The Brubaker group built both vehicles for the series. All the sound effects inside the Ark II were previously heard as part of the U.S.S. Enterprise on Star Trek (1966).

Then participants can head to Howard Amon Park to walk through the steps of getting a “security badge,” see historical exhibits, watch ‘40s-themed entertainment, eat a traditional Hanford mess hall dinner and then dance to a swing band.

Coleen Varvel, 95, of Richland was there for the first Richland Atomic Frontier Days in 1948, collecting the programs until the last one in about 1960, and may be back on Saturday, she said. “It was a big deal, because nothing else was a big deal,” she said laughing, about the event in the early days of Richland when it was a government-owned town. “It was fun. Everybody was involved.”

Way to go Elon!

The Harris Ranch Tesla Supercharger has a couple of things going for it that have made it a part of Tesla enthusiasts’ lore: It’s one of the electric car giant’s first Supercharger stations, and with 98 charging bays, it’s also the biggest in the world.

The Central California charging station is such a big deal that Tesla clubs even make it an appointment destination. Yes, they’ll rally-style drive to it just to honor its lineage and size. 

But as with many Tesla-related things, there is a secret, thinly obscured by an Oz-like curtain, at the Harris Ranch Supercharger. Hidden in plain sight across the way from the Harris Ranch Supercharger’s main stations, behind a Shell station, is a small diesel plant that has helped power Tesla’s footprint.

‘A far darker reality’

The news was first broken by investigative journalist Edward Niedermeyer. In May 2015, Niedermeyer drove from his Oregon home to Harris Ranch to see whether “Musk’s latest bit of dream weaving could stand up to reality.”

What Niedermeyer reportedly found was a little different from the company’s clean energy claims.

“I discovered that Tesla’s battery swap station was not in fact being made available to owners who regularly drove between California’s two largest cities,” Niedermeyer wrote in a May 2022 exposé for Slate. “Instead, the company was running diesel generators to power additional Superchargers (the kind that take 30 to 60 minutes to recharge a battery) to handle the holiday rush, their exhaust mingling with the unmistakable smell of bulls—t.”

The fact that a small diesel plant was helping power the additional chargers kicked off a series of events that unraveled the myth of Elon Musk for Niedermeyer: “Once you stop taking Musk at his word,” he wrote, “his heroic popular image evaporates, and a far darker reality begins to reveal itself.”

It seems that tracking Musk’s unsubstantiated claims has become a hobby for some. There’s even a handy website dedicated to things Musk has proclaimed that haven’t come true, along with the number of days that have passed since specific claims have been made.

...
The journalist, who wrote a in-depth investigation of Tesla, pointed to Tesla’s latest impact report, in which the company criticized current measurements of greenhouse gas emissions for failing to factor in “the impact of emissions that are avoided through the sale of zero-emission or clean-tech products.”

“But when you get all the way to the actual explanation for their emission reduction claims (page 204) you get only the vaguest explanation, based on a generous baseline comparison of 24 mpg,” Niedermeyer continued, noting that the national average is dragged down by trucks.

In 1964, a geothermal company drilled a second test well in Washoe County, Nevada near the first well drilled in 1916. The water they found was not hot enough to use so they plugged up the well, but the seal didn’t hold and water began seaping. Over the years, it led to the creation of Fly Geyser, with the colors coming from thermophilic (heat-loving) algae that thrive off the mineral-rich water.



Fly Geyser, also known as Fly Ranch Geyser is a small geothermal geyser located on private land in Washoe County, Nevada, about 20 miles (32 km) north of Gerlach. Fly Geyser is located near the edge of Fly Reservoir in the Hualapai Geothermal Flats and is approximately 5 feet (1.5 m) high by 12 feet (3.7 m) wide, counting the mound on which it sits.

In June 2016, the non-profit Burning Man Project purchased the 3,800 acres  Fly Ranch, including the geyser, for $6.5 million. The Burning Man Project began offering limited public access to the property in May 2018.

Sept 5, 1781: the French fleet defeated the British fleet in the Battle of the Chesapeake, leaving British troops under Lord Cornwallis in Virginia with no reinforcements or means of escape. The combatants were a British fleet led by Rear Admiral Sir Thomas Graves and a French fleet led by Rear Admiral François Joseph Paul, the Comte de Grasse. A besieged Cornwallis surrendered to George Washington at Yorktown six weeks later.


To imagine that the French once beat the British at sea! Can't imagine the shellshock & number of sailors who went deaf.



Sept 5, 1934: Wiley Post (Nov 22, 1898 – August 15, 1935) reached the stratosphere in his Lockheed Vega "Winnie Mae." The aircraft didn't have a pressurized cabin, so he wore a pressure suit and helmet designed for him by the B.F. Goodrich Company, on display at National Air and Space Museum. On August 15, 1935, Post and American humorist Will Rogers were killed when Post's aircraft crashed on takeoff from a lagoon near Point Barrow in the Territory of Alaska.


Sept 5, 1942: Mess Attendant 1st Class Charles Jackson French swam 6-8 hours through shark-infested waters while towing a raft carrying 15 of his wounded shipmates to safety after USS Gregory was sunk by the Japanese near Guadalcanal. "The Human Tugboat" was recommended for the Navy Cross but only received a letter of commendation from ADM Halsey.


On May 21, 2022, French was posthumously awarded the Navy and Marine Corps Medal for heroic actions. In June 2022, President Biden signed into law H.R. 4168, to designate the United States Postal Service facility located at 6223 Maple Street, in Omaha, Nebraska, as the Petty Officer 1st Class Charles Jackson French Post Office.

Super bad-ass warrior: He was engaged by enemy fire 340 times and was forced down five times. The U.S. Army awarded him at least 50 combat decorations, including the Silver Star, 43 Air Medals, a Bronze Star and two Distinguished Flying Crosses.

Among his many harrowing operations, the most dangerous and frightening took place on June 18, 1968, when he rescued a four-man long range patrol team at significant risk to his own life. For his heroic actions that night, the Army awarded him the Silver Star, which President Joe Biden upgraded to the Medal of Honor in 2023.

Early 1960s concept drawing of an orbit and launch facility. It was to use a nuclear Systems Nuclear Auxiliary POWER (SNAP-II) nuclear power supply on the end of the long telescoping boom. Nuclear reactors were considered dangerous, which is why in this concept drawing it was located so far away from the habitat part of the station. Creators envisioned the structure being built in orbit to allow assembly of the station in orbit which could be then larger than anything that could be launched from Earth. The two main modules were to be 33 feet in diameter and 40 feet in length. When combined the modules would create a four deck facility, 2 decks to be used for laboratory space and 2 decks for operations and living quarters. The facility also allowed for servicing and launch of a space vehicle. Though the station was designed to operate in micro-gravity, it would also have an artificial gravity capability.

Sept 6, 1979: the massive concrete dome on Runit Island at Enewetak Atoll was completed, entombing 4,700 cubic meters of radioactive debris and more than 83,000 cubic meters of contaminated soil scraped off neighboring islands—the residue of 43 US nuclear tests from 1948-58.

The radioactive debris and soil were collected and the dome built by 4,000 Army, Navy, and Air Force servicemen working for the Defense Nuclear Agency (now the Defense Threat Reduction Agency). The unprecedented project took three years and cost some $400 million (FY23 dollars).

The 2020-23 PACT Act (Promise to Address Comprehensive Toxics Act) the largest expansion of health care and benefits for veterans exposed to toxic substances since 1991, also covers exposure to radioactive materials, including, for the first time, for these veterans.



Updating Presumptive Radiation Locations Based on the PACT Act


Veterans like Paul Laird, Tim Snider, and David Roach, who have suffered for years from multiple serious health problems linked to their work on the Enewetak Radiological Support Project but who have long been denied government-supported medical care.

Tim Snider was a 20-year-old radiation technician. On arrival, officers ordered him to wear a hazmat suit and respirator so a military film crew could document him working (below), then took back all the equipment. “I never saw one of those suits again. It was just propaganda.”


Paul Laird was a 20-year-old bulldozer driver at the atoll in 1977: “That dust was like baby powder. We were covered in it .... When the job was done, they threw my bulldozer in the ocean because it was so hot. If it got that much radiation, how the hell did it miss me?”

Unfortunately, thousands of the veterans the new law was intended to help are seeing their claims denied by the Department of Veterans Affairs. “They’re waiting for us to die,” said Kenneth Brownell, 66, one of the first soldiers sent to clean up the atoll.

Troops Who Cleaned Up Radioactive Islands Can’t Get Medical Care


Runit Dome and the unlined crater below it are threatened by rising sea levels (or the atoll sinking). Cracks and spalling of the concrete were observed in 2018. A 2020 DOE report to congress claimed the radioactive contents were not a significant exposure hazard relative to residual fallout already in the lagoon. Nothing to see here.

Sept 6, 1901: Leon Czolgosz, an an American laborer and anarchist, armed with a concealed .32-caliber Iver Johnson "Safety Automatic" revolver he had purchased four days earlier, shoots and fatally wounds US President William McKinley at the Pan-American Exposition in Buffalo, New York. McKinley later died from his injuries on September 14 which led to Theodore Roosevelt taking over as president. Afterward he said, "I killed the President because he was an enemy of the good people – of the working people." Czolgosz was quickly tried and executed on October 29, 1901.




Sept 6, 1916: Clarence Saunders opened Piggly Wiggly in Memphis, TN, the first true self-service grocery store.

When Clarence Saunders opened the first Piggly Wiggly store in Memphis, Tennessee on September 6th, 1916, he revolutionized the grocery shopping experience. Prior to Piggly Wiggly, customers would provide store clerks with handwritten shopping lists, and clerks would gather the requested items.

Saunders introduced a novel concept - allowing customers to personally select their own products from the shelves. This self-service model empowered shoppers while reducing labor costs for stores. Piggly Wiggly also featured innovative designs like shopping baskets to aid customers.

Another key innovation was centralized checkout stands. Rather than paying for items at individual counters throughout the store, Saunders created a streamlined process where customers could pay for all purchases in one location.

Saunders promoted Piggly Wiggly extensively through eye-catching signage and advertising circulars, differentiating his stores from the competition. The success of Piggly Wiggly's supermarket prototype was immense, and similar self-service markets spread rapidly across the United States, transforming grocery shopping.

In 1922, Saunders established the Piggly Wiggly Corporation, becoming the first self-service grocery chain to issue public stock and solidifying its industry leadership. While financial struggles later caused Saunders to lose control of the company, he remained determined. He founded another chain called "Clarence Saunders Sole Owner Stores" with further advances like electric doors and frozen food sections.

Saunders received numerous patents related to retail innovations over his career. His concepts of self-service, centralized checkout, and promotional strategies remain fundamental to the modern supermarket experience today. Though Saunders faced personal challenges, his impact on the grocery industry through Piggly Wiggly is immense and long-lasting.
