Sinkhole Incidents On the Rise
"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."

Binmen on morning rounds forced to abandon lorry after eight foot wide sinkhole threatens to swallow vehicle
http://www.mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news/binmen-morning-rounds-forced-a...
Binmen on their morning collection were forced to abandon their lorry as it faced being swallowed by the road when a sink hole opened beneath it.
The truck teetered on the edge of the massive hole that is thought to have emerged because of a fresh water leak.
Council contractors were acting to remove the massive green truck before it fell through the road.
The hole opened while binmen did their rounds in Sidcup, south east London, this morning.Witness Elaine Roles tweeted: "The hole is growing by the minute and the lorry is sinking!"
Two rescue trucks were on the scene to try and determine how to free the lorry, before it fell into the massive hole in the earth.

Gigantic sinkhole appears in Pietermaritzburg
http://www.news24.com/SouthAfrica/News/Gigantic-sinkhole-appears-on...
A massive sinkhole over two metres deep and three metres wide appeared on the N3 highway in Pietermaritzburg on Thursday, leading to the closure of one of the busy freeway's lanes.
The Durban-bound portion of the road near the Peter Brown offramp has been repaired numerous times, but it collapsed when a bus travelling over the sunken area collided with a truck in the early hours of Thursday.
WBHO engineer Jacques Grobler, who has been contracted to repair the sinkhole, said he was hoping to fix the portion of road before the Easter weekend.“We had a machine on site this morning to start excavating the bottom of the sinkhole and to investigate the problem.”
He said once they identified the cause of the collapse, they would build up the hole layer by layer and “try to repair it before the Easter weekend”.
Road Traffic Inspectorate spokesperson Zinhle Mngomezulu said the hole was 2.4 metres deep and would easily swallow the nose end of a car.

Sinkhole closes Harrisburg street
http://fox43.com/2015/03/17/sinkhole-closes-harrisburg-street/
The 300 block of N. 15th Street near Swatara Street in Harrisburg is closed to traffic due to a sinkhole. Emergency crews were called to the scene at about 4 pm.
The sinkhole was apparently caused by a broken water main. Capital Regional Water Company crews had the main repaired by 8 pm. Because the line needed to be flushed 28 customers along the street were advised to boil their water before use.

Massive Sinkholes Break Open As Dead Sea Shrivels
http://abcnews.go.com/International/massive-sinkholes-break-open-de...
There are more than 3,000 sinkholes on the banks of the Dead Sea -- and they're multiplying exponentially, according to environmentalists, as the body of water dries up.
"It's nature's revenge," said Gidon Bromberg, the Israeli Director at EcoPeace Middle East, an organization that brings together Jordanian, Palestinian and Israeli environmentalists to protect their shared environmental heritage.
"These sinkholes are a direct result of the inappropriate mismanagement of water resources in the region."
More than 1,400 feet below sea level, the Dead Sea is the lowest point on land. The first sinkhole was spotted in the 1980s. By 1990, there were 40, and 15 years later new chasms are breaking open every day.
"They could develop overnight. Or over time," Bromberg said. "Making them unpredictable. And very dangerous."

Huge sink hole forces closure of road for 'several weeks'
http://www.mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news/huge-sink-hole-forces-closure-...
This photo shows the hug sinkhole that has opened up in a road in Southport, Merseyside, forcing it closure for "several weeks".
The crevasse formed after a sewer collapsed at the junction of the A565 (Cambridge Road) and the A5267 (Preston New Road) in Churchtown.
The hole is which is 15ft by 10ft, reports the Liverpool Echo.
The sewer collapse caused delays for drivers heading through the village, and motorists commuting from Southport to Preston.
Engineers were on site all day today using tankers to pump water from the hole.
United Utilities spokesman John Martin said: “We’ve now managed to pump the majority of water away which was escaping from the collapsed sewer.
“This has allowed us to CCTV the sewer pipe which has confirmed the large hole in the road was a result of the sewer collapsing underneath.”

Mysterious Giant Crater-like Structures Found near New-Zealand
http://www.sci-news.com/othersciences/geophysics/article00985.html
A multinational team of researchers led by marine geophysicist Dr Bryan Davy from GNS Science has found what may be the world’s biggest pockmarks on the seafloor about 310 miles east of Christchurch, New Zealand.
Three giant pockmarks – crater-like structures on the seabed – found by the team are possibly twice the size of the largest pockmarks ever recorded.
Scientists believe they are the ancient remnants of vigorous degassing from under the seafloor into the ocean. The structures (the largest being 6.8 miles by 3.7 miles in diameter and 328 feet deep) are at water depths of about 0.6 miles and there is currently no sign of gas being emitted from them.
The team investigated the larger seafloor structures on the German research ship Sonne. Their aim was to determine the geological origin of the structures, which were first noted in 2007.
“Some of the pockmarks are huge compared to similar structures observed elsewhere in the world,” Dr Davy said. “It’s most unusual for scientists to encounter seafloor structures of this size and complexity. They are big enough to enclose the Wellington city urban area, or lower Manhattan.”
The geological processes that led to the formation of the larger structures were still unclear.
“There were clear indications in seismic reflection records of gas pockets and fluid flow structures in the deeper sediments underneath the pockmarks,” explained Dr Joerg Bialas from GEOMAR Helmholtz Center for Ocean Research in Kiel, Germany.
“The pockmark features are covered by complex layers of more recent sediment. Gas release from the larger pockmarks may have been sudden and possibly even violent, with a massive volume being expelled into the ocean and atmosphere within hours or days,” he said.
Scientists cannot rule out volcanic activity, directly or indirectly, having generated the release of gas. Another possibility is the release of sub-seafloor hydrocarbon gas through a layer of gas hydrate deposits. This would have coincided with drops in sea level of about 328 feet during Ice Ages and subsequent warming of sea temperatures.
“The apparent absence of methane in the shallow sediment and water column at the giant pockmark area was a surprise,” said Dr Ingo Klaucke from GEOMAR and Dr Richard Coffin from the US Naval Research Laboratory.
“While there was no sign of active gas systems in the larger pockmarks, the smaller ones in shallower water appeared to have been sporadically active,” said gas hydrate scientist Dr Ingo Pecher from the University of Auckland. “Gas escape could be occurring from the smaller pockmarks during glacial intervals every 20,000 or 100,000 years.”
“Methane is a potent greenhouse gas and the escape of big volumes would have significant implications for climate change and ocean acidification,” he concluded.

Sinkhole opens up at Fort Campbell
http://www.wsmv.com/story/28397120/sinkhole-opens-up-at-fort-campbell
FORT CAMPBELL, KY (WSMV) -
A sinkhole forced soldiers at Fort Campbell to take evasive maneuvers to get around post.
The 20-by-20 hole opened up on Monday on the corner of Wickham Avenue and 101st Road Cole Park Commons.
Geologist Kallina Dunkle with Austin Peay State University believes the snow and ice followed by rain caused the sinkhole.
Dunkle said sinkholes are fairly common in Tennessee, particularly in Clarksville where there is a lot of limestone. Dozens of sinkholes have opened up on Austin Peay's campus over the past decade.
"We can imagine where typically a series of caves or systems that might be connected, and so when all that soil starts to get washed out into the underlying system, you end up with a depression at the top," Dunkle said.
Last spring, construction crews discovered a relatively small sinkhole near Austin Peay's football field. The sinkhole expanded and was nearly 60 feet deep.

Are you SURE that's not a tunnel? Massive sinkhole opens up just yards from fence of category C prison - but officials insist there's no chance of a breakout
- Sinkhole appeared outside HMP The Mount in Bovingdon, Hertfordshire
- Hole was filled in with concrete and soil only fot it to re-appear days later
- It is just yards from prison walls and believed to be 15ft deep and 6ft wide
A massive sinkhole has opened up just yards from the fence of a prison - but officials insist there is no chance of any inmates escaping.
The hole first appeared just outside the walls of HMP The Mount in Bovingdon, Hertforshire in January.
Staff at the 770-capacity prison filled the sinkhole with soil and concrete - but it re-emerged and is now believed to be about 6ft wide and 15ft deep.
'There is some concern that more could appear as that land has already been earmarked for a housing development.'
The hole comes after a similar crater opened up in nearby Hemel Hempstead, Hertforshire, last February.

Are Siberia's mysterious craters caused by climate change? Scientists find four new enormous holes in northern Russia
- Four new craters have been spotted by scientists in the Yamal peninsula, in Siberia
- May be caused by gas from underground and fear craters becoming more common due to rising temperatures
- Bright flash of light seen to one crater which led to theories that buried gas pockets in the soil may be igniting
- Another new crater has been found less than six miles from a major gas plant and experts have called for an urgent investigation into the phenomenon
Four new mysterious giant craters have appeared in the Siberian in northern Russia, sparking fears that global warming may be causing gas to erupt from underground.
Scientists spotted the new holes, along with dozens of other smaller ones, in the same area as three other enormous craters that were spotted on the Yamal Peninsula last year.
The craters are thought to be caused by of gas from the permafrost as rising rising temperatures causes the frozen soil to melt.

Unexplained: The first of the new craters discovered, named B1 (pictured above), shows signs of an huge eruption of gas
It has sparked fears that the craters could become more common as climate change continues to warm and led to warnings that the area is facing a looming natural disaster.
This map shows the location of the new craters (labelled B1-4) along with the previously discovered holes marked with black dots

More than 380 people evacuated in Naples after enormous sinkhole opens up over a SEWER
Residents in Naples, Italy woke up this morning to a massive sinkhole that opened up in the middle of a street.
Officials say the sinkhole started off as a depression in the road and is most likely caused by a broken sewer.
'It was 5 this morning when I heard a huge thud. I looked out and saw the road collapse and swallow a car,' a woman who lives in a neighboring apartment told Il Mattino.
A sinkhole opened up in the middle of a street in Naples, Italy early Sunday morning. It's believed that a broken sewer caused the sinkhole
None of the surrounding buildings showed sign of damage, but nonetheless the four condominiums surrounding the crater were evacuated on Sunday with city officials scrambling to find accommodations for the 380 displaced locals.
'We are in contact with hotel facilities in the area in order to accommodate everyone and try to reduce as far as possible, the inconvenience to citizens,' an official said.
David Lezzi, the operations manager of the site, said crews will first figure out the extent of the hole before trying to stabilize it with concrete.
Reports did not say when residents might be able to return to their homes. The area has been cordoned off.
Next steps: Engineers plan to stabilize the sinkhole by filling it with concrete. It's unclear when the evacuated families will be able to return to their homes
