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.

High waters cause parts of Hwy. 12 to collapse into ocean
The high waters caused parts of Highway 12 (at the Outer Banks) to fall into the ocean. The rising flood waters caused significant damage in Kitty Hawk. There's no time frame as to when the highway will be fixed and re-opened.
Highway 12, locally known as Beach Road, is the main road for access to the beachfront on the Outer Banks. Over the last few days, Eastern North Carolina has seen high tides and severe rainfall which has caused damage to the area
After the high levels of water knocked out the dunes, the road collapsed because the water eroded the sand underneath.
Monte Adams has owned his home in Kitty Hawk for the last 24 years. He says the beachfront area is completely changed.
“See those waves, they used to be beach at least 100 to 75 yards and in the last two to three years it’s kind of turned into this," Adams said..........

Emergency crews responded to a building collapse on Lawrenceburg Public Square Friday afternoon.
One person was trapped inside, but workers were able to rescue him.
A witness told Channel 4 the collapse happened just after 1 p.m. Friday. He said the building was under renovation.
“Heard this crashing sound, sounded like a train wreck,” said Nathan Hennessy, a witness. “I actually had to run back because I was afraid it would fall back on me. All I heard was the sound of glass breaking and car alarms.
“Yeah, it was terrible,” Hennessy added.
Three people were working inside the building when one of them said he heard a loud “pop.” Two of the workers were able to get out of the building, but one was trapped inside.
Jason Perry, the man who was trapped inside, told Channel 4 that the tornado drills he learned in schools helped save his life.
The building collapse crushed some empty cars in a nearby parking lot. Pieces of rubble also fell on a man driving by. He was transported to a nearby hospital with minor injuries.
There’s no word on what caused the collapse.

A brick facade on one of the buildings at Mountain View Condominiums caused damage to some gas and electric meters. (5:39 PM)
VALLEY COTTAGE - A partial building collapse in Valley Cottage startled condo residents last night.
Police say a brick facade on one of the buildings at Mountain View Condominiums in Valley Cottage fell just after 9 p.m. last night. "We were sitting in the living room and all of a sudden we heard this terrible crash and we looked out and saw all of these blocks out on the lawn," says Fran Lamparelli.
They say the falling bricks caused damage to some gas and electric meters. As a result of the damage, 16 units were without gas for the evening, and eight units were without both gas and electric. Orange and Rockland responded to the scene to repair gas line and electrical boxes. Eight of the units were still without gas or electricity today.
The complex managers says they hope to have all service restored by tomorrow.
No one was displaced or hurt.

The workers, from All Finish Concrete of Moorhead, were setting up forms to pour the footings for the new home of a business called EZ Open Garage Door, according to West Fargo officials.
The trench was more like a large pit 15 feet deep and about 34 feet wide at its narrowest, dug on the south side of a half-finished building. The worker with the most-serious injury had been in the pit near a 2-foot-by-10-foot panel in a concrete form. When the north wall of the trench sloughed off, it caused the panel to turn on its side and apparently break his shin and calf bones.

Officials and residents in Cushing are still looking for answers after a downtown building suddenly collapsed Tuesday night.
The building, on the corner of Noble Avenue and Broadway Street, was formerly home to a few apartments and a variety store named “Boy Howdy.” Residents said the building had been empty and neglected for several years.
“It's been kind of a landmark over the years. You hate to lose any buildings, any structures in your downtown area,” Cushing Emergency Management Services director Bob Noltensmeyer said.
The building suffered major damage to the southeastern corner. The roof collapsed inward forcing the eastern wall to crumble into the street. Crews later came to knock down what was left of the corner for public safety.
City officials said Wednesday it was too early to tell what caused the roof to collapse. But they do say it was an old building that needed repairs. Noltensmeyer estimated it was built during the 1920s. Others, however, were not so sure that's really all there is too it
“We've had lots of earthquakes and it is a real old building,” Mary Ellis said.
Ellis, who lives in Cushing, says she was a frequent customer at Boy Howdy and was sad to see the building go.
So far in September, 27 earthquakes above a 2.5 magnitude have been reported in Cushing, according to the United States Geological Survey. The largest quake topped out at 4.1. That earthquake was closely followed by the closing of oil waste water wells just outside town. Some residents have also reported cracks in other older buildings around town.
Noltensmeyer said the new owner is from Tulsa and has a decision ahead of him on whether he will keep the building, sell the brick or tear down the structure all together.

The roof of an under-construction building at 658 Washington Avenue in Prospect Heights collapsed around 9 a.m. this morning. No injuries have been reported.
DOB records confirm the collapse and building evacuation at the already long-vacant structure. The fire department called for the DOB to inspect the site “due to roof collapse of building under permitted alteration.” Above, the site in 2014.
The old brick building at the corner of Washington and Bergen is one of many properties owned by prolific Brooklyn developer Brookland Capital. The developer also owns, and is building on, the adjacent lots at 731, 733, 735 and 737 Bergen Street.
Brookland Capital purchased 658 Washington from the Church of God Victory in September of 2013 for $1,600,000, according to data accessed via Reonomy. The developer focuses on constructing small and medium-sized condo buildings. It has more than 40 projects under way in Brooklyn.

The cause of the accident is not yet known, but a member of the technical rescue crew told Pittsburgh's Action News 4 the ditch was not shored.
The victim's name has not yet been released.
OSHA is investigating the accident.

BOONE, N.C. -- The continuous rain is being blamed for the partial collapse of a parking lot in Boone.
It happened early Monday morning behind a converted gas station which houses two businesses along Highway 321 and 105.
"There is probably no better place for that wall to have fallen, because it fell right in the safest spot for it to fall," said Max Smith, owner of Red Gremlin Design Studio.
"If it would have been 15 feet right, it would have crushed the other building, 15 feet to the left, it would have crushed the building beside it," he said.
James Maltba, the property's rental manager, says engineers assessed the damage and determined what's left will have to be torn down.
He estimates the parking lot used by a number of businesses has been standing tall for at least 40 years.
"It's been a good stable wall. It's got a lot of structural support," he pointed.
Maltba also runs his directory business from the building, spared by the avalanche of mud and concrete.
He says the building did not sustain any damages, and items were moved from the back of the building in case the remaining wall falls down.
Homeless veteran, Randy Langdon, tells NBC Charlotte he was sleeping behind the building when he heard "popping" noises.
He suspects he heard the sound of the rebar giving way. He considers himself very fortunate he was not hurt.
"Just amazing. God was on my side."
Crews have since brought in hay to lay over the dirt to combat soil erosion and to keep the mud from washing onto the highway.

The Lagos State Emergency Management Agency (LASEMA) says it was yet to determine the number of casualties in Tuesday building collapse in Lekki area of the state.
Mr Michael Akindele, the General Manager of the agency, stated this in an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) at the scene of the incident.
NAN reports that the collapsed building was located at 37 Agungi/Ajiran Road, Osapa London, Lekki in Eti-Osa Local Government Area.
“As l speak, l cannot ascertain whether there is anybody trapped, dead or alive, until when we conclude the search and rescue mission.
“For now, we are still on rescue mission to ensure that there is no life under the debris.
“Until we get to the zero level before we can make any further pronouncement,’’ he said.
He, however, said that the agency would conduct investigation to determine the quality of materials used to construct the building.
“As at August 11, the three buildings under construction here were marked by the Lagos State Building Control Agency (LASBCA) and the contractors served appropriately to stop construction.
“This collapse is out of defiance; however, necessary investigations will be done by appropriate agency after which it will act appropriately.
“LASEMA is here on search and rescue mission,’’ he said.
Akindele explained that before officials of the agency arrived at the scene, two people have already been rescue alive.
He said the agency was informed that the construction workers were already out before the collapse but that motorcycle rider sleep there.
He said his officials would do their best to ensure anybody who was trapped in the building was rescued.
A witness at the scene said that four people were still trapped while two persons were rescued before the arrival of emergency officials.
