ZETATALK: THE STRETCH ZONE, THAT SINKING FEELING
ZetaTalk explores the concept of Earth's "stretch zones"—regions where tectonic plates are being pulled apart due to planetary forces, particularly in anticipation of a predicted pole shift. It focuses heavily on the eastern seaboard of the U.S., the Caribbean, and parts of Europe, warning that these areas will experience significant land subsidence due to the widening of the Atlantic Rift.
Key points include:
Historical evidence of submerged forests and civilizations off the U.S. East Coast and Bermuda.
Predictions that areas like Florida, Georgia, and the UK will lose elevation and be permanently flooded.
A detailed catalog of sinkholes, train derailments, infrastructure collapses, and mysterious odors from 2004–2005, interpreted as signs of Earth stretching.
The concept of “imploding cities”, where underground infrastructure fails due to shifting rock layers.
Warnings to relocate from vulnerable coastal and low-lying areas before the pole shift occurs.

PALESTINE, TX (KLTV)- Road closures are in effect after part of a building suddenly collapsed Tuesday in Palestine.
It happened around 11 a.m. downtown-- near the intersection of Houston and E. Oak Street.
People who live and work nearby said they could feel the ground shaking for blocks.
"It was this real deep rumble. The building shook, the lights flickered.. It was scary," said Chris Gouras.
Gouras lives right next door to the ivanhoe number 15.. The building that's roof collapsed.
He says the rubble coming down made so much noise he had no idea what he was hearing..
"I ran out and opened the door and all I saw was rubble and the dust from it blowing away," he said.
Some said they thought a train de-railed. Others said they wondered if it was an earthquake.
"It was like 20 transformers blowing all at once," Gouras said.
"The building official was actually driving by when it collapsed and was just less than a block away. He saw a big cloud of smoke and turned around to come back and look at it," said Fire Marshal Alan Wilcher.
Officials said they aren't sure what caused the collapse right now. They're waiting for the wind to die down so they can send a ladder truck up to investigate.
"It looks like it's weather related. It looks like maybe the torrential rains we had here the last couple of days played a part in it, but we don't know for a fact until we can get up there and look at it," Wilcher said.
They said some water is leaking from the building but they don't know yet if that contributed to the collapse or is a result of it.
Whatever the reason behind the collapse, Gouras said he is glad everyone is o.k.
"Very grateful. The only thing that happened was one of the pieces of stone up top went through the window," he said.
And as scary as it was, Gouras said he knows things could have been a lot worse.
For now, Houston Street at E. Oak and Avenue A are closed. Officials said they anticipate those roads saying closed for at least a couple of days.

FLOOD AFTERMATH: THE COLLAPSE of an old wall in a Dublin cemetery following heavy rainfall on Monday night left a number of coffins exposed as the ground subsided.
Residents of a block of seaside apartments on the Harbour Road in Howth, which borders the St Mary’s Abbey cemetery, awoke yesterday to the sight of at least two coffins sticking out of the earth.
Fingal County Council evacuated 10 of the apartments in the Boyd House block citing “risk of further earth collapse”. A spokeswoman said those affected had been contacted door to door where possible and hotel accommodation was being arranged for residents without an alternative.
“Owners of four shop units to the front of the apartment block have been advised to close their premises and keep them closed until further notice, until the full extent of the public safety risk can be established,” she said.
The cemetery holds a number of famous graves and is listed on goireland.com as one of eight cemeteries worth visiting in Dublin.
“The ‘Stranger’s Bank’ at old Saint Mary’s Abbey was used for unidentified victims of disasters at sea,” the website says.
“When the Dollymount to Howth tram line was built in the last years of the 19th century, an unknown ‘ganger’ died during work and was also buried here. Colleagues set up two tram rails as a memorial to him here...”

Civic officials and local residents traded blame over the collapse. “It was a three-storey unauthorised structure. Additional construction was done on the building without the civic body’s permission,” said Achyut Hange, Bhiwandi-Nizampura Municpal Corporation commissioner. When it was constructed in 2007, the building was one-storeyed. Two more floors were added in the following years. In March, the corporation certified the building as dangerous and issued an eviction notice to its residents. “But the other party obtained a stay order,” Hange said.
Residents, on the other hand, blamed former corporator Sayyed Naseer for the collapse. Rukhsana Anari, whose 70-year-old mother moved in to a third-flloor flat in the building six months ago attributed the collapse to poor quality of construction. “The land belonged to one Jagdish, but the construction was done by former corporator Sayyed Naseer. Both are to be blamed,” Anari said.
The injured were rushed to Indira Gandhi Memorial Hospital in Bhiwandi, from where seven were shifted to Thane Civil Hospital. At least 25 persons were trapped inside the rubble at the time of going to press and local officials feared that the number of casualties could rise. Three JCB machines, one crane and two fire engines were pressed into service. The National Disaster Response Force and a team from Mumbai and Thane have also been called in for the rescue operation. Those injured include workers of a plastic factory located on the ground floor of the building.

| Route 209 closed due to road collapse | |
Superintendent John Donahue said the highway will be closed from the park’s North Contact Station, just south of Milford, to the intersection of Route 739 at Dingman’s Ferry and motorists should plan to use alternative routes, such as Milford Road from Milford to get to Route 739 or crossing into New Jersey to take Old Mine Road from Route 206 to get to the Dingmans Ferry Bridge. The failure was along a 150-yard segment of the road at mile marker 15, about two miles north of Route 739. The embankment on the east side of the road has slumped, the pavement has begun to separate – evidenced by large cracks in the surface – and large voids have developed under the pavement. In some places, the road has dropped by approximately six inches. Federal Highways Administration engineers were on site today and determined the road is unsafe for motor vehicles. It is likely that this year’s record rainfall, along with the impacts of Hurricane Irene and Tropical Storm Lee, has caused the problems. A timetable to make emergency repairs has not been established. Raymondskill Road, a connecting road between State Route 2001 and Route 209, will be closed to through traffic. However, it will remain open from State Route 2001 to Raymondskill Falls, allowing park visitors to access the Raymondskill Falls and Cliff Park trails. Visitors will be able to park outside of the closed section of Route 209 and walk to park lands to hike, hunt and fish. |

KATHMANDU, OCT 20 -
A portion of the road constructed on the banks of Bagmati River linking Sinamangal with Tilganga at Sinamangal collapsed whilst the construction of a new bridge. Vehicular movement on the 1.5 km road has been restricted following the damage on Saturday.
According to the officials at Department of Road (DoR) Kathmandu division, the road was torn asunder by Bagmati waters while constructing a foundation for the new bridge.
“The heavy water flow during the bridge construction weakened the road’s foundation and led to its collapse,” said Kathmandu DoR chief Gopal Khadka. “Some 30-metre diameter of the road has been damaged, which has disrupted traffic from Old Baneshwor to Tilganga.”
Khadka said pedestrian movement has been restricted too, fearing possible rupture as the land withholding the road has developed many cracks. “The road will be repaired and brought into operation in a week.”
The road damage has more affected the entire traffic system in Sinamangal, Gaushala and Old Baneshwor routes and also local people who were already hit when the Bagmati river bridge collapsed in 2009 at Sinamangal, say traffic police.
“The road damage has increased vehicle pressure at various places,” said SP Jagat Man Shrestha, spokesman of Metropolitan Traffic Police Division (MTPD). “The vehicles coming from Sinamangal are being diverted towards Tinkune and Airport area, whereas the vehicles from Old Baneshwor are being sent to Battisputali or Baneshwor.”
The Bagmati bridge constructed some 46 years ago had collapsed after unchecked illegal extraction of sand from the river.
According to DoR officials, the new bridge might come into operation by the end of this fiscal year. “Public are compelled to travel the long distance following the damage. So we are committed to complete the project as soon as possible.”

A 30-metre stretch of Highway 133 in St. Denis sur Richelieu is closed after a landslide caused the roadbed to collapse Thursday morning.
The Sûreté du Québec was called to the scene around 10 a.m., said spokesperson Geneviève Bruno.
"There were no collisions and no cars that went off the road," she said.
The SQ closed the highway and redirected traffic, while the transport and public security departments investigate.
Both of the two lanes that run along the bank of Richelieu River appeared to have sunken and crumbled, according to TV footage, leaving hydro polls suspended from their wires at the water's edge.
One home on the road facing the damage was evacuated.

One man was taken to a hospital today after three workers fell about 20 feet when scaffolding gave way outside a Kansas City office building.
Kansas City firefighters were called around 11:35 a.m. to the building at 63rd Street and Rockhill Road. They reported that the men were working outside the building and fell onto a roof above the ground.
The man who was taken to the hospital suffered non-life threatening injuries. The two other workers declined medical treatment.
MONTREAL - A 30-metre stretch of Highway 133 in Saint-Denis-sur-Richelieu is closed after a landslide caused the road bed to collapse Thursday morning.
The Sureté du Québec was called to the scene around 10 a.m., said spokesperson Geneviève Bruno.
“There were no collisions and no cars that went off the road,” she said.
The SQ immediately closed the stretch of highway and redirected traffic.
According to Christine Savard, regional director for public security in the Montéregie and Estrie regions, one of three homes along the road facing the damage was evacuated. The stretch of road runs parallel to the Richelieu River, but it's unclear if the proximity to the water had anything to do with the landslide. Both of the two lanes that run along the bank of Richelieu River appeared to have sunken and crumbled according to TV footage, leaving hydro polls suspended from their wires at the water’s edge.
Savard said specialists were on the scene Thursday evening, and that the highway would remain closed indefinitely. The roadway is maintained by the transportation ministry, and repairs to a serious crack in the road were underway when it collapsed, Savard said.
"Our concern was the security of the residents" she said. "The one residence affected is not in danger, so the family has been notified that they can go back to their home."
She said it was too early to begin drawing parallels to a landslide in nearby St. Jude which swallowed a house and killed an entire family in the spring of 2010.
