"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?"

"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."

ALLENTOWN, Pa. - January 2, 2012 (WPVI) -- The large sinkhole that swallowed part of an Allentown neighborhood and evacuated dozens last week, continues to cause problems.
J.R.Rosado is one of many who used to live on the 300 block of North 10th Street.
Now he, his wife, his three children and his dog, all live inside his parent's tiny apartment a few blocks away.
"My wife sleeps on one side on the floor, then the kids and I sleep on the other side," said Rosado.
The good news for Rosado, is that he and his family were renting their home.
Geryl Hodge who lives just two doors down, owns hers.
She recently found out from her insurance agent that her homeowner's policy doesn't cover sinkhole damage.
"It's not an event that is covered by our policy and basically they've been quoting the exclusions," said Hodge.
She and her two children have been staying at a local hotel courtesy of the city but Allentown officials are only paying for the room through Tuesday night.
Hodge says she can't afford to pay for the room herself and all the local shelters are full.
On top of that, her home is so unstable that she can't go back to retrieve clothing and personal items.
Despite all of that, little help is coming her way.
Since a water main break is the likely cause, the sinkhole is not considered a natural disaster so state and federal agencies are not getting involved.
Now, with one day to go before being officially homeless, Hodge is considering hiring an attorney to find out who is responsible.
"Why do we have to go that route? Why can't someone step up and take responsibility? It's been frustrating," said Hodge.
As of right now, two of the homes on the block will likely need to be demolished, and a few more could suffer the same fate, including the Hodge family home.
The cemetery holds 20,000 graves, including 714 Civil War veterans
A sinkhole that forced the evacuation of 25 residents from their homes has spread to an historic cemetery, threatening dozens of graves.
Officials in Allentown, Pennsylvania, have been given the go-ahead by a judge to exhume remains buried during the Civil War.
The hole, measuring 50ft long and 30ft wide, was thought to have collapsed when a water main burst and flooded under a road.

Hole in the road: Workmen gather at the 50ft long sinkhole in Allentown which is believed to have opened up after a water main burst
About 60 graves in Union and West End Cemetery are threatened have been roped off after several headstones tilted.
The cemetery holds about 20,000 graves, including 714 Civil War veterans. Among them is a Medal of Honor winner, Ignatz Gresser.
Lehigh County Coroner Scott Grim said: 'If any sites are in jeopardy, than we are going to have to make that decision to excavate.
'It's a very sensitive issue. You are dealing with a cemetery. You are laid to rest and now it is being disturbed.'
Everette Carr, president of the association which maintains the 157-year old non-profit burial ground, revealed there were are no detailed historical records beyond those whose graves have headstones.
Danger: Twenty-five residents had to be evacuated from their homes after water flooded a basement
Under threat: A red tape cordons off the graves which face being exhumed because of the sinkhole
Many of the dead were buried in wooden baskets as was the custom during that era.
A dozen homes half a block from the hole on 10th Street were evacuated yesterday after firemen found a basement flooded. Five properties have been declared structurally unsafe.
'At this point, we don't know if the homes will have to be condemned or not,' said fire chief Robert C. Scheirer.
"Three of homes have major shifting issues that you can physically see shifting," Assistant Fire Chief Lee Laubach told CNN affiliate WFMZ. "You can see the doors don't open, the cracks in the walls and in foundations."
"Dwayne Glover, an evacuated resident, told the station that before evacuating his home, his foot had inadvertently gone through a concrete floor as he walked toward his washing machine."
"It's a very volatile situation," Carr said. "The ground is unstable. There is no question it is moving."

POLK CITY -- http://www.cfnews13.com/article/news/2011/december/363572/Growing-s...
Repair crews will be back at the site of a Polk County sinkhole today.
Florida Department of Transportation officials said they are still trying to assess the hole and determine when and how to fill it in.
A 30-foot-wide and 12-foot-deep sinkhole opened up in the parking lot of a Polk City rest stop along westbound I-4 around 10:30 a.m. The sinkhole grew to about 40 feet wide by 5 p.m.
Gigi Wilkins and her husband were headed home to Northport after vacationing in Orlando.
The couple says they stopped at the rest area for a quick bathroom break. They left one parking space in between their cars.
They were only gone for a few minutes when the ground opened up. Wilkins’ Ford Escape was swallowed by the sinkhole.
"I came out sort of heard a loud cracking noise and kind of saw my car sinking into the ground," she said, "and then a little bit later there was a louder cracking noise and his car went sideways."
It's something she says that still has her shaking her head.
"This is a Christmas, New Years to remember," she said. "We’ll remember this story for a while."
Wilkins said they just bought the SUV after moving to Florida a few months ago.
Both vehicles were towed to a local garage for repairs.
No injuries were reported.
The rest stop is located near mile marker 46, near the Fantasy of Flight attraction. Part of the rest stop remains open to cars and SUVs but not heavy trucks.

The town of Manchester, N.H., has been replacing about two miles of aging water pipeline annually in recent years, but municpal crews could not complete their task before a 12-in.-dia water main dating back to 1901 burst. The rupture on Dec. 13 created a street sinkhole that was perilous for one driver.
“A cap blew off the back of a cross on the water main,” before water gushed up on the left side of the subcompact, trapping it on a live gas main, says Guy Chabot, distribution engineer at the Manchester Water Works. “The 110-year-old main broke due to fatigue." The car and its driver were pulled to safety, but 200 ft of roadway collapsed or was undermined, officials say.
Water was shut off to a three-block area for nearly nine hours. By 3 p.m. service was restored and street repairs were completed, Chabot says.
The water main was a 110-year-old cast iron pipe with 100 psi of water, Chabot says. “Back in 1901, they attached a cap to the cross using metal strapping, but with 110 years of corrosion, the straps blew out,” he adds.
Similar to other old mill towns, “we have pipes as old as 135 years in our downtown,” Chabot says. “We’ve got to keep replacing them for years to come.” He says Manchester has a $1.2-million budget in 2012 for water main replacement as part of its capital program, with priority based on leak history, water quality issues and complaints, then age.
Chabot says the city hopes to double its replacement volume to 4 miles per year over the next 20 years, budget permitting.

A section of one of San Diego's oldest water mains has given out, making it a dry, inconvenient morning for residents of a Bay Park neighborhood.
A large sinkhole opened up about 3.30 a.m. Tuesday morning near Shawnee Road and Baker Street after a water main break sent water gushing down the street.
About 30 residents are affected. Some found out when they tried to take showers or brush their teeth. Others, when they went out to get the paper and saw the lights and cameras of several television news crews.
The most common reaction was, "here we go again".
Neighbors say there was a water main break in the neighborhood just a few weeks ago.
“I think it was three or four weeks ago that we had the same situation, so I went ahead and figured out that I only had a few minutes left,” said resident Ron Simental.
He realized the water hadn’t been turned off just yet.
“I got my trailer filled up with water because last time it took most of the day,” said Simental.
At 2 p.m. water was back on, but shortly after at 3:15 p.m. water began leaking again. There's no new estimate to when the water will be restored.
Officials said they're working hard to fix the problem.
The water main is cast iron and over 60 years old. Residents say it began corroding and breaking earlier in this same neighborhood about two years ago.
Caltrans says the cause is unknown but expects the road to be closed for less than a week for repairs
Foothill Road in Santa Barbara between Morada Lane and Northridge Road shut down Tuesday because of a sinkhole in the roadway.
Caltrans was alerted to the hazard at 11 a.m. Tuesday and expects the road to be closed for less than a week while repairs are made, spokesman Colin Jones said.
“We’re not sure the cause of it, but the the roadway is sinking and there’s a depressed section but it hasn’t cracked,” he said. “We saw utility gas lines there and called maintenance crews immediately. We don’t want people driving on unstable or hazardous roadway.”
Traffic is being detoured through Willowglen Road and Calle Cita as well as Grove Lane.
“Traffic is getting pretty crazy. What I recommended to my family was to stay as far away from Foothill as you can,” said Joe Guzzardi of the Santa Barbara County Office of Emergency Services. “Even upper State Street is gridlocked, and it will only get worse as it gets closer to 5 p.m.”
Jones said crews will work from dusk until dawn to try to get Foothill Road, also known as Highway 192, open before school resumes next week at Monte Vista Elementary. Although maintenance crews are at the scene, he said an emergency contractor will start working on the roadway depression either Wednesday or Thursday.
With many children playing at Willow Glen Park, officials ask motorists to drive carefully and slowly.

Sink hole causes sewage to spread following earthquake Sewage spreads past a car trapped in a sink hole caused by liquefaction in the Christchurch suburb of Parklands after an earthquake struck December 23, 2011. An earthquake of 5.8 magnitude struck near the New Zealand city of Christchurch on Friday, New Zealand's civil defence said, prompting the evacuation of some public buildings and sending goods toppling from shelves.

A number of Christchurch residents want their neighbourhood to be condemned, as liquefaction following Friday's earthquake forced another clean-up.
Aftershocks continued to rock Christchurch on Saturday after quakes measuring 5.8 and 6.0 shook the nerves of many residents on Friday.
The quakes cut power to about 26,000 homes and caused issues with water supply and wastewater, though most of those services were back to normal by late Saturday.

But cleaning up huge amounts of silt caused by liquefaction was the biggest problem for many residents in the suburb of Parklands, who have already faced this issue twice before.
Soil liquefaction describes a phenomenon whereby a saturated soil substantially loses strength and stiffness in response to applied stress, usually earthquake shaking or other sudden change in stress condition, causing it to behave like a liquid.
"We've had enough. We can't keep doing this. This will happen again and again," resident Geoff Cooke told One News.
The area was zoned orange at one point but later switched back to green, or inhabitable. But with further liquefaction, they called for it to be hoarsened red, or uninhabitable.
Prime Minister John Key says a reassessment may be necessary.
"It's possible that some of those boundaries might change and go into red, but wall need to take a closer look at that when we can properly assess it, which will probably be early in the new year," he
"Wall have to go and do a full assessment later on but it's likely that most of the damage has taken place in areas that are already damaged."
Electronic transactions operator Epimere said transactions in Christchurch were down 17.5 per cent on Friday compared to the same day last year in the wake of many mall closures, though there was a significant increase on Saturday as shoppers tried to catch up.
The number of homes without power was down to about 50 on Saturday afternoon and Christchurch Mayor Bob Parker hoped most of the emergency repairs could be finished on Saturday.
"It has been a hellish year. I am determined to get as much as we can fixed by tonight so that our staff, apart from a skeleton team, can spend Christmas with their families."

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. -- The sinkhole that forced the closure of a San Marco road Thursday will keep the road closed at least through the weekend.
JEA spokesperson Gerri Boyce this morning said the repair work on Kings Avenue will need at least until Monday to dry.
Late Thursday, a 48-inch sewer line broke, causing a small hole and large dimple in the road that leads to a 13.5-foot-deep hole under the road near the Nira Street intersection, also near the Kings Avenue parking garage.
Kings Avenue is closed between Nira and Manning streets.
