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.

Building collapses in Den Bosch center; Injuries unknown
Posted on Feb 28, 2016
Update, 12:23 a.m., 28 February 2016: A spokesman for the regional safety office does not believe there are any injuries, but is offering no guarantees, Omroep Brabant reported. Specially-trained dogs are at the location to help search efforts.
A building under renovation in Den Bosch collapsed late Saturday night, leaving a gaping hole in the city’s main square. The collapse happened after 11 p.m., and rescue workers were still uncertain if anyone was buried in the rubble as midnight approached.
Cafe patrons sitting nearby said the incident was surreal. It was just “as a house of cards would collapse,” one person told the Volkskrant. Others said it seemed like the building crumbled in slow motion.
A trauma helicopter was immediately dispatched to the scene, along with at least six fire trucks, two ambulances and multiple police at the location, freelance journalist Noël van Hooft wrote on Twitter. At the time of the collapse, workers were testing large, special lighting for a show on artist Hieronymus Bosch. The lights were be used to make the rubble more visible for rescue workers in the aftermath.
It happened at a corner building located on the Markt at Hinthamerstraat. Demolition work on the ground floor Pearle optician’s location began just after the store closed, and continued until about 10 p.m., residents told broadcaster NOS. There were several units above the store that were used as apartments up until the last few weeks, according to the Telegraaf. The apartments were already being converted to warehouse space, and were no longer lived in, one area resident told the paper.
A message on the Pearle website says the facility is closed due to the construction work due to take place there from Monday, February 29 through Friday, March 4. The shop normally closes on Saturdays at 5 p.m. and is closed on Sundays.
The Pearle was located next to Bosch’s birthplace, Van Hooft said. That building, known as “De Kleine Winst”, or The Little Winnings, was left unscathed, according to multiple reports from the scene.

Man Rescued From Rubble After Building Collapses In Grays Ferry
February 27, 2016 8:14 AM
PHILADELPHIA (CBS) — Bricks and shards of wood line the sidewalks of Patton and Reed Streets, where a two-story row home was reduced to rubble Saturday morning in Grays Ferry.
The loud banging of bricks crumbling to the ground rocked this quiet section of the neighborhood around 8 a.m. in the 1400 block of Patton Street, and Gregory Cooper watched it happen from his bedroom window across the street.
“It’s just amazing,” he said. “You see the house fall, big cloud of dust, and it just happened so fast. It was just like, if you blinked you would have missed it.”
He immediately went to see if anyone needed help.
“I ran out to see if anyone was inside the building, cause that’s your first instinct,” he said. “I ran to the front of the building and I asked if anyone was in there. I heard a voice, in the back of the house, hollering for help.”
When he went around back, he said a man was trapped in the remains of the house.
He was much, probably stuck in the back bedroom. And that’s probably what saved his life, because he was at the top of the rubble.”
A strong smell of gas-filled the air though, so Gregory called 9-1-1, and waited for fire crews to arrive. He watched as they brought out a man covered in dust.
The 39-year-old man was taken to the Presbyterian Hospital. His condition was not immediately known.
Cooper says seeing it happen reminded him of the deadly Salvation Army Collapse on Market Street.
“Because of all the lives that were lost over there, my first instinct was to make sure somebody was there to get him help if he needed help to get out, or to call for help.”
No one else was believed to be inside the home.
There’s no word on what caused the collapse.
Patton Street was closed as a result. Drivers were being urged to avoid the area, if possible.

A part of Verizon building collapsed onto the street damaging 6 cars in Elmhurst
A huge outer portion of a Verizon building in Elmhurst collapsed onto the street below early Thursday morning after a long night of torrential rain and windstorms.
No one was hurt when the piece fell off the structure at around 1 a.m, according to a Verizon spokesperson. Six cars were damaged when they were hit down below, according to reports.
The building is located on Broadway and Vietor Avenue. Vietor Avenue was still closed late Thursday morning as the debris was being cleared.
According to an eyewitness on the scene, the building looked as if water and wind damage from last night’s storm weakened the side of the building, causing the exterior wall of the building to slide off in thin chunks.
The Verizon spokesperson said that both the building and the information network were fully operational by Thursday morning and the company is investigating the cause of the collapse.
“We’re assessing the situation,” the spokesperson said.

Building collapse prompts evacuation
No one was injured when a wall collapsed in a pre-statehood building on North Main Street early Sunday.
A wall on the east side on the north end of the Royal Casket Co. building, 302. N. Main St., collapsed at about 3 a.m., said Muskogee Assistant Fire Chief Gordon Lee.
Muskogee residents and the building's owner were in the building at the time of the collapse.
"We're not sure who was living in it," Lee said. "We will evacuate it for now till it can be inspected."
The building, which is 116 years old, collapsed without warning. Muskogee residents, who declined to comment, spent much of Sunday moving possessions out of the building. The owner, Jeanette Hunter, declined to say whether people lived there.
Hunter, a real estate broker, said the cause of the collapse was likely a combination of weather and an earthquake.
"There was an earthquake a couple days ago," she said. "We figured there were some things a bit weak in the back of the building because we'd had a lot of rain, and there were a couple windows that blew out."
There was a 2.2 magnitude earthquake west of Enid at about 3:30 a.m. Sunday and a 5.1 magnitude earthquake on Feb. 13 in the same area, according to the U.S. Geological Survey.
The building will have to be inspected before it can be reopened. Lee said it was evacuated as a matter of public safety. Hunter, who has owned the building since about 2007, said the city inspector could condemn the building.
"In my opinion, there's no reason to do that," Hunter said.
She said her plan is to repair the damage and renovate the building into storefronts and apartments. The roof on the rear of the building on the upper and lower levels collapsed along with a wall. However, Hunter said she was confident the building is still stable, as it has a large support wall through the center.
