Sinkhole Incidents On the Rise

[Howard]

"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?" 

ZetaTalk Chat Q&A for April 13, 2013

"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."

Sinkhole Swallows Backhoe in Montreal (Aug 5)
A routine excavation job on a busy downtown street turned perilous when a front-loading backhoe was swallowed up by a giant sinkhole.

At approximately 9:30 a.m. local time,  construction work began on Sainte Catherine Street at the corner of Guy Street. Shortly after the work began, the ground opened up.

The busy downtown corner is home to several shops and is across the street from the campus of Concordia University.

Luckily, the person at the wheel of the backhoe was not injured. No other injuries have been reported.

Sinkhole 200 Feet Across Opens in Kansas (August 2)
A gigantic sinkhole 200 feet across and 90 feet deep appeared in western Kansas this week.

A local police officer said the sinkhole appears to be getting bigger. “Man had nothing to do with this. This is a God thing. There’s no oil well around here, there are no irrigation wells anywhere near. This is something that just happened,” Sheriff Townsend told the station.

Another local, Virgil Fisher, asked: “How can this happen? What happened to what was below?”

"I'd seen pictures and I knew it was deep, but I didn't think it was this deep. You get out here and you get a whole different perspective on how deep it is," said Gavin Mote.

You really can't get a good sense of the size and scope unless you walk up close to it.  And just how safe that is remains a question. There are large cracks right next to the sinkhole.  Sheriff Larry Townsend said it appears to be getting bigger and he doesn't know what's going to stop it.

Across the United States, there are reports of sinkholes nearly every day.

Parked Car Partially Consumed by Sinkhole in Philadelphia (July 30)
In Philadelphia's Hunting Park section early Tuesday, the nose of a car sank down below the street  with its rear end raised in the air.

Residents watched as the hole got deeper, and the lean on the car greater. A tow truck was called.

The owner said they had to call another tow truck to get it out because the first truck couldn't do it.

PGW crews were on scene for hours with jackhammers and shovels. Neighbors watched the progression around the car that remained tilted on its two front wheels.

Action News spoke with a representative from the Water Department, who explained that a water main break caused the sinkhole, and that the car that was parked above just fell right in as the street collapsed.

When the car fell, it landed on a PGW service main. PGW says there is no gas leak and no evacuations are necessary.

However, as a precaution, gas service was temporarily turned off to four nearby homes and crews will also replace the gas main after the car is safely removed.

Another sinkhole reported, this time in west Toledo

A sinkhole has been reported at Grantwood and Yellowstone in west Toledo. There have been no reports of anyone injured or anything fallen into it, and no roads are closed at this time.

JEDBURG, South Carolina — Traffic is snarled for miles in both directions on Interstate 26 because a sinkhole opened between Charleston and the junction with Interstate 95.

Transportation Department spokesman James Law says fast moving water washed out the soil beneath a drainage culvert under the highway at mile marker 192 near Jedburg Road.

The sinkhole is in the eastbound passing lane but there is also equipment in the westbound passing lane as crews work to put in sheeting to block water from draining into the sinkhole. A single lane of traffic is moving in each direction.

The sinkhole was first reported July 5 and repaired. The problem has worsened. The sinkhole now is about the width of an interstate lane and about 25 feet long.

Sinkhole Swallows Car in Virginia (July 12)
A massive sinkhole opened up in Farmville early Friday, swallowing a car that drove into the large hole.

It happened on Rochelle Road, just off of Route 45 in Farmville.

Two people who were inside a car that plunged into the massive hole were able to escape without injury.

The sinkhole measured around 20 feet deep and about 50 feet wide, according to first responders.

Rochelle Drive is a private road that leads to several homes. Most of the road has been closed off.

2 women swallowed by sinkholes in Illinois and Ohio over the past 2 days. 

Chicago Woman Swallowed by Sinkhole (July 8)

One moment Tina Sanchez was standing on the pavement, the next she was in it.

Sanchez had to be pulled out of a sinkhole Monday by East Joliet Firefighters when the ground gave way in the mobile home park in southwest suburban Joliet Township.

Around 6 p.m. Sanchez and her son were walking past a nearby home when she stopped to talk to a neighbor near a parking space and a steel drain, she said.

Without warning, she fell into the ground and had to hold on to her son and try to brace her feet against the drain, she said.

“I was freaking out,” Sanchez said. “The more I kept trying to get up, the more I kept falling in.”

Sanchez said she was lucky a van was parked in the spot so she could hold onto the bumper while her son called 911.

“All I could see were feet when (firefighters) arrived,” she said, adding that she was thankful for their help.

Sanchez was pulled from the hole and taken to the hospital. Her buttocks and groin were badly bruised from the impact, she said.

Sanchez was using ice packs and medication to cope with the pain Wednesday. Insurance issues were preventing her from going to see an orthopedic specialist the hospital recommended.

“I’m afraid to go back down that way, my mind is still not right,” she said. “I’m concerned someone else could get hurt.”

Sinkhole Opens Under Toledo Ohio Woman  (July 10)

An East Toledo woman was transported to the hospital today after she fell into a 5-foot deep hole today that was in the grass in her yard.

The woman climbed out of the hole herself, and was taken by emergency crews to St. Vincent Mercy Medical Center, Toledo police reported. Neither her identity nor her condition were immediately available.

The hole, which was about 2 feet wide, was located in the grass median between the sidewalk and roadway in front of the woman's residence at 711 Nevada St. Police said they weren't sure yet how the hole got there.
