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?"
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."

Giant sinkhole keeps residents out of homes
HANOVER TWP., Pa. - December 8, 2011 (WPVI) -- In one Lehigh Valley neighborhood, some homeowners are still hoping that crews can close a giant sinkhole that's threatening their homes.
Many of them are afraid they may not be home for Christmas. Residents of three homes in the 2200 block of Irma Drive stood outside and watched as crews filled in a giant sinkhole in what had been their front yards. They had to stand outside, because they were not allowed inside their houses. Engineers still aren't sure if they are safe, after water from an apparent water main break washed the dirt out from under their foundations Monday. Michael Smith noticed a problem when he stepped out his front door Monday morning.
"I heard the water first, and then as I am looking down towards the water, I'm seeing this hole opening up five feet aware from my front door," described Michael Smith. Wendy Almanzar, who lives next door, was at home with her 18-month-old son. She and her fiancé had just bought the house and moved in March. "They were knocking at the back door and front door, and then I opened the front door and I saw the hole, and the water guy was yelling at me to get out of the house," explained Wendy Almanzar. Wendy called her fiancé, who rushed home from work in time to watch the sinkhole grow and grow. "At first, I would say it was about 6 feet wide, and then a couple hours later, we were looking at about 10 feet wide, and then eventually it worked its way towards my property," said Christian Diaz. In a phone interview, David Brong, Director of the Bethlehem Water Department, said the main had been checked for leaks just one week ago. And when it was removed, it wasn't corroded. His theory: "There may be something going on under the earth's surface that compromised the line." For now, the plan is to continue to fill the giant sinkhole with dirt, rocks and cement to try and stabilize the houses. The hope is that residents would be able to move back into their homes by Christmas.

Massive sinkhole opens up in Sayre, Oklahoma
A massive sinkhole appears overnight at Beckham County near Sayre, Oklahoma. KFOR reports that the sinkhole is about 40 feet deep and 40 feet wide. Sinkholes are not so uncommon in western Oklahoma. Geologists at the Oklahoma Geological Survey say several things could have caused the sinkhole including salt or rock formations dissolving or a drought. They also say old coal mines are often full of water and when that water drains, there is no support causing the soil above it to collapse.
See video and read the original story at KFOR.com
For those wondering why it is so round: this is a common geometry for these type of “cover-collapse” sinkholes, also called “dropout” sinkholes. Fine-grained sediment often has enough cohesion that it will hold itself together. When a void develops, the sediment that collapses into the void will form a soil arch, resembling a dome in 3-dimensions. This is a stable geometry and will hold up the walls of the void, much like an arch holds up walls of a building over a doorway. The hole will progressively grow upward over time, but will maintain its arch-like cross section, until it ultimately breaks the surface and we see a circular hole.An earthquake connection?

A string of small earthquakes have been rattling Oklahoma over the past month and residents are wondering if the natural disasters are to blame for an emerging sinkhole. This sinkhole formed just two days after Oklahoma’s last earthquake about two weeks ago. And the shaking has continued since then. There have been a string of small quakes over the past week; the strongest was a 3.7 on Thanksgiving. There was a 2.7 on Tuesday morning. On 5 November an earthquake measuring 5.6 rattled Oklahoma and was felt as far away as Illinois. Until two years ago Oklahoma typically had about 50 earthquakes a year, but in 2010, 1,047 quakes shook the state. In Lincoln County, where most of this past weekend’s

Worker dies when sinkhole swallows back hoe
http://www.thenewsstar.com/article/20111129/NEWS01/111129022/Worker...
A D&J Construction worker was found dead after his track hoe got caught in a sinkhole off Louisiana 3033.
The body of Kenny Robinson, 53, of West Monroe, was found around 5:30 p.m. Monday, but responders were not able to recover the body until 4 a.m. Tuesday.
Maj. James Purvis of the Ouachita Parish Sheriff’s Office said Robinson was building access roads into the sand pits at 629 Louisiana 3033, West Monroe, when his track hoe became caught in a sinkhole.
Purvis said the equipment, with Robinson trapped inside, was almost completely buried.
The incident is still under investigation.

A sinkhole opened this morning under a tractor-trailerhttp://www.lehighvalleylive.com/bethlehem/index.ssf/2011/11/tractor...
Tractor-trailer drops into sinkhole at Sheetz in Bethlehem
Part of a tractor-trailer was swallowed by a sinkhole about 8 o'clock this morning in the parking lot of the Sheetz mini-market in the 3200 block of Schoenersville Road in Bethlehem.
No one was hurt, but the driver, Joe Lech, was in the truck when the sinkhole opened."The ground shook once. The ground shook twice," Lech said. "It was like an earthquake."
The gas pumps at the market have been closed and the store remains open. Schoenersville Road and City Line Road remain open.
The truck is from JL Transportation Co. Inc. in Larksville, Pa. Lech said he was hauling soda from a plant on City Line Road. He had just picked up the load and pulled into Sheetz."I stop for coffee and smokes," Lech said. "I do this everyday."He said in his 31 years of driving a truck, he's never dropped into a sinkhole."It's unique," Lech said. "I've never had an experience like this."Firefighters and tow truck operators are working to move the semi and began pumping out the truck's fuel tanks at 10:30 this morning.Police said the truck would need to be unloaded before wreckers could right it and haul it away. Police estimated the depth of the sinkhole at 10 to 12 feet. Lech said the rescue effort would take all day."It's gonna be an all-day affair," he said.

See, Click, Fix: Sinkholes cause problems in neighborhood
WILMINGTON, NC (WECT) - A viewer posted a problem with sinkholes in the Quail Woods neighborhood off Murrayville Road.
The post reads: the existing sinkhole at the entrance to the quail woods neighborhood has gotten bigger and deeper.
The City of Wilmington, New Hanover County and the Cape Fear Public Utility Authority had crews look into the problem.
"The sink holes at Quail Woods are a result of storm water pipes. However, it is located in the unincorporated area so it is not in the jurisdiction of the City of Wilmington. Staff met with the HOA reps and assisted them with the situation. The HOA is going to have someone camera the lines and take corrective action to fix the sink holes," said Jim Iannucci, PE, CFM, County Engineer, New Hanover County Engineering Department.
