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.

China has a new leaning tower but it's not a tourist site.

Three residential buildings, all between three and four stories high, were involved in the incident.
No injuries were reported.
The apartments in Guangxi Autonomous Region, southern China, started tilting backwards on August 2
Roads adjacent to the buildings have also started breaking away. The buildings have now been sealed off
The buildings have now been sealed off by the local government. Residents of the building had to be evacuated.
According to an unnamed shop owner living in the building, the building started to tilt around 9pm local time.
He was watching television when everything inside the house started falling to the floor.
The road immediately adjacent to the building has also started to split.
Remarkably, the buildings haven't collapse despite leaning at a dangerous angle.
Currently local authorities are trying to work out the best way to retrieve the items inside the house as well as stabilising the building.
It is thought that the tilting of the building was caused by external pressures although it is not clear whether this is from adjacent buildings or the road.

All canal-side roads are ready to collapse, officials say

Highway officials warned yesterday that all canal-side roads are in danger of collapsing as waterways across the country are drying up.
Motorists were urged to drive slowly with caution alongside canals, while truck drivers were advised to find alternative routes, according to highway authorities.
A number of spectacular incidents have seen roads split and torn apart as the soil dessicates, settles and shifts due to the drought crisis, notably in Saraburi province and a sinkhole earlier this month on Bangkok’s Phetkasem Road. Then there was the river that ate a woman’s house.
Road inspectors will survey risky areas, officials said, while residents near canals were asked to report any issues to officials via hotline number 1146.

I-10 closed at collapsed bridge in Desert Center
http://www.desertsun.com/story/news/2015/07/19/desert-center-bridge...
A bridge collapse east of the Coachella Valley late Sunday afternoon forced the closure of Interstate 10 – the main roadway between Southern California and Phoenix – injuring one man and stranding hundreds of motorists backed up for miles.
The Tex Wash bridge, built on the eastbound I-10 in 1967, was listed as functionally obsolete in the 2013 National Bridge Inventory released last year. Essentially, the bridge was listed as no longer adequate for its task, though it was not listed as having known structural problems that needed to be fixed.
A black truck was driving east on I-10 when the bridge crumpled beneath it about 4:45 p.m. Bystanders used straps from their cars to tie the truck to a guardrail and prevent it from washing away in the running water below. The passenger was able to get out but the driver had to be rescued. Firefighters went into rapidly rising water with asphalt and debris falling around them to pull the driver out by 7 p.m.

Multi-storey building collapses in west Delhi, many trapped
A five-storey building collapsed in Vishnu Garden area of west Delhi late on Saturday. According to initial reports, many people are feared trapped under the debris.
A five-storey building collapsed in Vishnu Garden area of west Delhi late on Saturday. According to initial reports, many people are feared trapped under the debris.
"The building in Vishnu Garden (in Khayala) collapsed and we are conducting a rescue operation. Many are feared to be trapped in the debris of the multi storey building," DCP (West Delhi) Pushpendra Kumar said.
Fire department officials said that the collapse of the five-storey building was reported at 9 pm and several fire tenders and rescue teams were rushed to the spot to conduct rescue and relief operation.
In April, two persons including a six-year-old boy were killed while nine others severely injured when the top two floors of a three-storey building collapsed following an explosion in a high-power compressor in west Delhi's Moti Nagar. Eleven persons were rescued from the debris.
The ground floor of the building housed a fan-assembling unit where a compressor was installed for painting the manufactured fans. It was this compressor which caused the blast.

Sinkhole causes Long Grove road to collapse
Diamond Lake Road's crossing at Indian Creek in Long Grove will be closed indefinitely after it collapsed Friday morning, leaving a crater several feet wide.
Larry Savage, an engineer with the Lake County Division of Transportation, said another engineer was driving the area at 8 a.m. Friday and noticed a slight sinkhole.
The drainage pipe that runs under the road is old and rotting, Savage said. Designs to replace the pipe are underway, and replacement was scheduled for August 2016.

But heavy rains Thursday night filled the tunnel and pushed through a rotted hole and into the ground next to the road, Savage said. As the water levels dropped, some of the supporting gravel slid out of place and fell into the tunnel, he said.
Crews were on the scene from 8:30 a.m. until noon cutting open the road and refilling the gravel to keep the road leveled and free of potholes, Savage said.
"It was the weight of the new gravel that caused the pipe to cave in," Savage said. "It was old and in worse shape than we thought. We've had some very intense seasons these past few years."
Those repair crews were still on their way back to the warehouse when a nearby neighbor called and reported the collapse, Savage said. No cars were in the area when the collapse occurred.
Fire Chief Jeff Steingart of the Countryside Fire Protection District confirmed that his crews were not needed at the scene.
The suggested detour involves diverting traffic from Gilmer Road and Route 45 onto Route 83, which runs parallel to Diamond Lake Road.
There is no timetable for when Diamond Lake Road will reopen.
Brooke Hooker, a spokesperson for the Lake County Department of Transportation, said the drainage pipe is of an unusual size and needs to be custom ordered. She said timetables for that type design and purchase are often unpredictable.

Nine believed dead in Philippine coal mine collapse: official
Jul. 17, 2015 | 09:09 AM
MANILA: Three people died and six others are believed to have also been killed when part of a coal mine collapsed on a remote central Philippine island Friday, the provincial governor said.
Nine workers were using heavy machinery to remove sea water from the open-pit mine when a wall collapsed and buried the miners, Governor Rhodora Cadiao said.
Heavy rains had also reportedly drenched the area, she added.
"Nine people were buried and presumed dead. We recovered three bodies and we're looking for six more," Cadiao told radio DZBB.
Mining operations were suspended following the incident and an investigation has been launched.
Five people were killed in a similar incident at the mine in 2013.
"Precautionary measures should have been in place," the governor said. "This will undergo (an) investigation. I hope there is no negligence on the part of the contractor."
Semirara Mining and Power Corp., which owns the mine, said it was investigating in coordination with the government.
"Management has condoled with the families of the victims and is giving them full support," it said in a statement.
The open-pit mine is on an island around four hours by boat from the central island of Antique, a fishing province in the Visayas islands, and one hour by plane from the capital Manila
