Sinkhole Incidents On the Rise
"Stretch zones primarily experience sinking ground, as the support in the rock strata is stretched thin. Thus, buildings implode and gas and water mains break." ZetaTalk
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
What happens to rock layers under a diagonal pull, or being pulled apart? As can be seen during recent years, this has resulted in derailing trains, sinkholes suddenly appearing, gas and water main breaks, torn roadways and separating bridges. Despite the effect on man, crawling about on the surface of what they assume to be terra firma, these changes are superficial. When the pulling starts, weak points break and thereafter the plumbing and roadways hold, giving the impression that the pulling has stopped, but this is misleading. The North American continent is giving evidence that its rock layers are separating from each other, and sliding sideways in a diagonal, thus exposing portions of these layers to vent into the air above. If rock is being stressed, then where are the earthquake predictors giving evidence of this, the frantic animals, the static on the radio, the earthquake swarms? Rock in the stretch zone, pulling apart rather than compressing, does not emit the particles flows that animals and radios sense, nor register on instruments are tension and release quakes.

"We have repeatedly stated that the Earth changes will not diminish, but will increase going into the pole shift.
This is not a lineal matter, as the closer Planet X comes to Earth, an inevitable path, the more the torque effect and the polar wobble where the N Pole of Earth is pushed away violently on a daily basis, occur. The wobble will become more pronounced, more violent. The plates are tugged back West of the Atlantic, pulled forward East of the Atlantic, during the daily rotation of the Earth. The North American continent is allowed to roll East during rotation while the S Pole is pulled West, creating the diagonal pull likely to trigger the New Madrid fault line into an adjustment, and soon. The N Pole is pushed away and allowed to bounce back, daily, as the Earth rotates, a wobble that puts stress on all fault lines when the plates are suddenly in motion, and suddenly stopped!
"As there is no other explanation for the effect on the stretch zone, lacking any earthquakes to blame, and as these stretch zone accidents will continue to emerge, and with ferocity, this is a certain clue to those on the fence, that the influence of Planet X is the cause. Or is it Global Warming?"
ZetaTalk Chat Q&A for April 13, 2013
"Sinkholes almost invariably form in areas subject to karst limestone cavern formation. Underground water flows eat away the limestone leaving vast caverns and caves, which often give scant indication above ground that a cavern lies below. Karst limestone rock formations have been mapped and are known, however, but since one never knows just where a cavern might have formed, this provides little help in predicting just where a sinkhole might form. Sinkholes open up when the rock is fractured due to stress from being in the stretch zone, from the bending of a plate, or due to torsion."

The sinkhole in downtown Washington will continue to block lanes and impede traffic until the end of the work week, officials said Tuesday.
Authorities shut down parts of 14th and F streets in Northwest Washington last week after a pit opened at the intersection, which is blocks from the White House and in an area full of restaurants and hotels.
The work is taking so long because workers digging down to the sewer line have to navigate a complex thicket of utility lines and old trolley tracks, according to George S. Hawkins, general manager of the D.C. Water and Sewer Authority.
“It’s been the most complicated street repair I’ve seen since I’ve been on the job,” Hawkins said at a news conferencein front of the sinkhole.

Horse Rescued from Sinkhole Near Duluth, Minnesota (May 7)
Members of the Wrenshall Fire and Rescue Squad could hardly believe their eyes when they responded to a call along the Willard Munger State Trail on the evening of May 7 and found a horse swallowed by the ground.
Melissa Aurand of Eagan, Minn., had been riding a horse named Stormy, belonging to her husband’s stepfather, Hank Dubrent, along an unpaved stretch of the trail just before 7 p.m. Her husband, Zach, was riding ahead of her.
“All of a sudden, Stormy started to sort of topple sideways,” Melissa
Aurand said. “I thought maybe she had passed out or something. I was tossed off just as her back legs began to slip into the ground.”
Alert to what was happening, Zach jumped off his horse and ran back to where Melissa was checking to see if the wrist she had landed on was injured.
“The horse was slowly sinking into the ground, like she was in quicksand,” Melissa said.
Zach grabbed Stormy’s halter and tried to tow her out with his horse, but to no avail. Stormy went from sliding slowly into the hole to disappearing completely beneath ground level.
Through it all, Melissa said, Stormy remained calm.
“She’s the most amazing horse ever,” Melissa said.
Zach jumped down into the gaping hole to check on the horse and keep her steady until help arrived. Melissa said her cell phone was in her saddle pack, so Zach had to dig it out and toss it up to her so she could call 911.
“The girl on the phone really calmed me down,” Melissa said. “I told her I needed help because my horse was stuck in the ground, and she had to make me stop and take a deep breath before she could actually catch on to what I was talking about.”
When seven responders from Wrenshall Fire and Rescue pulled up, they walked to Melissa and said casually, “How’s it going?” It was then that Zach stuck his cowboy hat up through the hole and started waving it at them.
“The man was about 6 feet tall, and when we got there all we could see was the top of his cowboy hat,” said Peter Laveau, first assistant chief. “The hole must have been 9 or 10 feet deep.”
Laveau said the sinkhole was big enough for the horse and Zach to stand up in.
A Carlton County sheriff’s deputy who also had responded to the call set to work trying to find a backhoe to help dig the horse out. In the meantime, one of the Wrenshall Fire and Rescue Squad members asked Zach what kind of ramp the horse would need to climb out of the hole.
“He told us he thought something with a 45-degree angle would be enough for the horse to get out,” Laveau said.
The rescue squad had shovels in their rig, so they shoveled for about 10 minutes to reposition the dirt around the edges of the sinkhole into a slope. Zach lifted himself out, and with a bit of encouragement, the horse followed suit.
Laveau said that while the horse was “somewhat sweaty and shook up,” with a small cut on its shoulder, it seemed to be all right.
“She looked pretty good for what she had gone through,” he said.

Ohio Home Condemned After Sinkhole Opens Beneath It (May 23)
A sinkhole estimated at 30 feet deep has opened under a Norwood house.
Residents of the home in the 1900 block of Maple Avenue said they noticed a problem with the power around 4 a.m.
When they tried to check the problem, they found a basement filled with roughly 8 feet of water.

But when they returned about a half hour later, the water had receded and the sinkhole was visible.
One resident says his mattress was sucked down into it.
The landlord tells WLWT she complained to the city of Norwood and the Metropolitan Sewer District back in January about a hole on the exterior of the building.
She said she questioned two engineers about the foundation, but was told the house was structurally sound.
The landlord says she's been told that the sinkhole could have been caused by a collapsed storm drain 20 feet underground.
The house has been condemned, and Maple Street is closed near the home.

5 die in 33-foot sinkhole that opened up in China
Five people died when a 10 metre (33 feet) wide sinkhole opened up at the gates of an industrial estate in Shenzhen, the southern Chinese boom town neighbouring Hong Kong, local authorities said Tuesday.
The Shenzhen Longgang district government said on its verified page on Sina Weibo, China’s version of Twitter, that five people had died and added that it was investigating the incident.
The sinkhole formed just outside the Huamao Industrial Park in Shenzhen on Monday evening, at a time when many factory workers would have been changing shifts, according to the website of Beijing-based newspaper the Guangming Daily.
The state-run Shanghai Daily newspaper said that rescuers saved one man.Reports said it was unclear how many people had fallen into the hole in total, but the search was continuing on Tuesday.
Sinkholes in China are often blamed on construction works and the country’s rapid pace of development.
Surveillance cameras in March captured images of a security guard being swallowed by a sinkhole, also in Shenzhen.
Two months ago a man was killed when his bedroom was swallowed by a eight metre (25 feet) sinkhole in Florida, in the US.

Indoor Sinkhole Swallows Man on Forklift in New Jersey (May 20)
A forklift operator was swallowed by a 10-foot-deep sinkhole when the floor of the New Jersey warehouse where he was working gave way underneath him. The hole was described as being about 40 feet by 40 feet wide.
Officials said the man was rescued and taken to a hospital with minor injuries after the fall into the hole in East Rutherford Monday afternoon.
The warehouse, which stores nonperishable food, was evacuated after the floor collapsed.
Rescuers said the forklift helped protect the man, shielding him from being crushed when he fell.

Another Car Swallowed By Sinkhole - China (May 15)
The Chinese family had been driving in Hetian, western China’s Xinjiang Autonomous Region, when the road suddenly collapsed and the front of the car fell in.
This is the bizarre moment a family of five got the shock of their lives when a giant sinkhole opened up and swallowed their car.
The Chinese family had been driving in Hetian, western China’s Xinjiang Autonomous Region, when the road suddenly collapsed and the front of the car fell in.
Father Alimu, whose wife and three children were also in the car, was unable to open the door as the sinkhole got bigger over the next 30 minutes until their vehicle almost completely disappeared.
Unable to open his door, Alimu and his wife were forced to clamber into the back and escape that way with their children.
It was eventually pulled out using a crane, covered in mud and with a crumpled front.Sources

Maryland Sinkhole Almost Swallows Car (May 14)
A Maryland driver was just trying to run to the store but instead got stuck in a gaping mud hole.
City crews say a water main break is to blame but they are not sure how it happened.
The driver says he was just pulling out of his driveway and started to sink into the ground.
He was able to get out safely.
"The car was... it was level at one point; then it just started to crumble, I mean, fall into the road," said Quency Bynum, lost car in a sinkhole. "It's a wash. Once all the electronic components get wet, it’s a wash."
The car has since been pulled out of the sinkhole.
Nearly 100 neighbors are without water while crews work to fix the pipes.
