Welcome 2 SYNxronisation

Drop in solar activity has potential effect for climate on earth.

The sun has reached a milestone not seen for nearly 100 years: an entire month has passed without a single visible sunspot being noted.

The event is significant as many climatologists now believe solar magnetic activity – which determines the number of sunspots -- is an influencing factor for climate on earth.

According to data from Mount Wilson Observatory, UCLA, more than an entire month has passed without a spot. The last time such an event occurred was June of 1913. Sunspot data has been collected since 1749.

A new sunspot has appeared on the sun's northern hemisphere and it has the correct magnetic signature.There is no doubt that Solar Cycle 24 is beginning.

NOAA (National Oceanic and Atmospheric Adminstration) has confirmed the new solar cycle.

The Coming of Solar Cycle 24

Strange Space Weather Over Africa

~~Welcome 2 the Dawn~~

I keep u updated. Here are the last news on the upcoming Cycle. This is an interesting article with some explanations as regards the parameters to be observed for an old ending cycle and for a beginning one. Parameters such as "reverse polarity sunspot" and "high latitude sunspot".

From sidc.be: Welcome to Solar Cycle 24, an area in the northern hemisphere of the solar disk at a rather high latitude with a leading negative and trailing positive polarity is spotted: this could be the first indication of the start of solar cycle 24!

From solarcycle24.com : "A non-sunspot plage region rotated into view on the northeastern limb around Dec 11 and was reverse magnetic polarity, therefore falling into the Solar Cycle 24 category. It was never classified a sunspot, but some pictures show that it was very close".

From KN4LF.com : "Anecdotal evidence points to solar cycle 23 minimum in October 2007 with a monthly International Sunspot Index (ISSI) number of 0.9. The lowest daily solar flux reading since July 1996 of 64.4 occurred on September 28, 2007. The lowest maximum daily Solar Flux Index (SFI) reading since October 1996 of 71 occurred on September 01, 2007.

However a brand new Coronal Hole #299 formed on 11/14/2007, then #301 on 11/24/2007 and #302 on 11/30/2007. We have also seen new sunspot group activity on 11/06/2007, 11/13/2007, between 11/24-26/2007 and 12/01-07-2007. All of these recent sunspot groups carry a solar cycle 23 magnetic polarity.

This put’s in doubt the anecdotal evidence that solar cycle #23 bottomed out in 10/2007. However we will have to see what the Smoothed Sunspot Number (SSN) is for September and October 2007.

Some good news for pending solar cycle 24 is a new mid latitude plage/sunspot group that rose above the eastern horizon of the Sun on Wednesday 12/12/2007. It has a magnetic polarity of a cycle 24 sunspot group."

Here we are folks, day to day, scientists are decoding the brain a little bit more and are able to understand the electromagnetic mechanisms of human thoughts.

Experience has been carried out on a young man and the results are outstanding: the young man has learnt how to move a cursor around a screen, play simple games, control a robotic arm and turn his brain into a TV remote control only by the power of his thoughts !! This is what is called Mind Control !

I can foresee the bad implications of this "evolution" ...

SAN FRANCISCO (Business 2.0 Magazine) - -- Two years ago, a quadriplegic man started playing video games using his brain as a controller. That may just sound like fun and games for the unfortunate, but really, it spells the beginning of a radical change in how we interact with computers - and business will never be the same.

Are you ready for this one ? The Solar activity of this Cycle will most probably culminate around 2012. It will surely be the most monitored Solar Cycle ever !

The Sun, our star, is the principal actor as regards what is called Space Weather. Space weather do influence communications, transportation, and electrical power systems on Earth but it influences also biological life and Human Society as well !

From: windows.ucar.edu

"Although space weather forecasts are not normally featured on the evening news, space weather does impact life on Earth in many ways. Our modern, technologically complex systems - including communications, transportation, and electrical power systems - can be disrupted and damaged by space weather storms. Exposure to radiation can threaten astronauts and commercial air travellers alike, and has affected the evolution of life on Earth. Space weather probably alters the weather and climate on our planet, though we don't yet have a precise understanding of those influences"

Word is spreading that the Sun has finally begun its new cycle ...

Solar Cycle Activity Overview, courtesy SOHO (NASA/ESA)

Solar activity is indicated by the Sunspot Number, Solar flux and Solar Flares:

- Sunspot number : Sunspot number varies in phase with the solar flux. Sunspot numbers can vary between zero (for sunspot minimum periods) to values in excess of 350 or 400 (in the very active "solar max" period of the suns 11 year cycle).

Sunspot Activity, Image courtesy SOHO (NASA/ESA)

- Solar flux: amount of solar light emitted by the sun at 10.7cm wavelenght radiowaves (2800 MHz). It can vary from values below 50 to values in excess of 300 (representing very low solar activity and high to very high solar activity respectively). Values in excess of 200 occur typical during the peak of the solar cycles.

- Solar flares: violent explosion in the Sun's atmosphere with an energy equivalent to tens of millions of hydrogen bombs

One more step in the reunification of the Christian Churches.

Is there still any validity in the Papal discourse and in the Church existence in its actual configuration: the biggest blasphemy of the One true Living God !

The Roman Catholic and Orthodox churches took tentative steps towards healing their 950-year rift yesterday by drafting a joint document that acknowledges the primacy of the Pope.

The 46-paragraph “Ravenna Document”, written by a special commission of Catholic and Orthodox officials, envisages a reunified church in which the Pope could be the most senior patriarch among the various Orthodox churches.

Just as Pope John Paul II was driven by the desire to bring down Communism, so Pope Benedict XVI hopes passionately to see the restoration of a unified Church. Although he is understood to favour closer relations with traditional Anglicans, the Anglican Communion is unlikely to be party to the discussions because of its ordination of women and other liberal practices.

Unification with the Orthodox churches could ultimately limit the authority of the Pope, lessening the absolute power that he currently enjoys within Catholicism. In contrast, a deal would greatly strengthen the Patriarch of Constantinople in his dealings with the Muslim world and the other Orthodox churches.

A phenomenon known as Ion plume is occuring right now in the upper atmosphere (ionosphere) above Africa. The ion plumes are made of electrified particles and may appear during geomagnetic storms.

Geomagnetic storms are often associated with Solar Coronal Mass Ejections (CME) and Solar Wind. CME eject out of the Sun's corona billion of charged particles (up to 10¹³kg mostly of e^-and p⁺) into the Solar Wind that propagates throughout the Solar System. The Solar Wind is a energetic stream of charged particles permanently emanating from the Sun. Solar wind velocity is in the range from 300 to 600 km/s, but some impulsive events like solar flares or CME's can produce speeds over 1000 km/s! At that speed it takes about 2 days for the energetic wind to reach the Earth'sneighborhood.

Well known effects of a geomagnetic storm are the aurorae phenomena, disturbances of communication and navigation systems, changes in the human biological systems ...

Lately though there has been no known CME and so no induced geomgnetic storm ...

Nov. 13, 2007: Something strange is happening in the atmosphere above Africa and researchers have converged on Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, to discuss the phenomenon. The Africa Space Weather Workshop kicked off Nov. 12th with nearly 100 scientists and students in attendance.

The strange phenomenon that brings all these people together is the ion plume—"a newly discovered form of space weather," says University of Colorado atmospheric scientist and Workshop co-organizer Tim Fuller-Rowell.

Researchers liken the plumes to smoke billowing out of a factory smokestack—except instead of ordinary ash and dust, ion plumes are made of electrified gas floating so high above ground they come in contact with space itself. "The plumes appear during geomagnetic storms and they can interfere with satellite transmissions, airline navigation and radio communications," says Fuller-Rowell. Indeed, it is their effect on GPS signals that led to the discovery of plumes over North America just a few years ago.

An Australian researcher (Dr John Papandriopoulos ) is on the road to riches after discovering a way to make broadband connections up to 100 times faster.

University of Melbourne research fellow Dr John Papandriopoulos is in the throes of moving to Silicon Valley after developing an algorithm to reduce the electromagnetic interference that slows down ADSL connections.

Most ADSL services around the world are effectively limited to speeds between 1 to 20Mbps, but if Dr Papandriopoulos's technology is successfully commercialised that speed ceiling would be closer to 100Mbps.

 xcerpts:

Humans are destined to rise to the level of cosmic consciousness. Each of us is destined to actualize the level of the “Meta-Human.” This ascent from the present “embryonic” state cannot, however, be activated by will, desire, or any other conscious force, for it comes as a necessary predicate to human organic existence and is circumscribed by the inviolate laws of nature. Its impulse lies seed-like within the deepest strata of the Being. We cannot force the lotus to grow against its true nature, nor can we force the human consciousness to grow in one specific direction, at one particular rate. Attempted intervention and control of this kind results only in confusion, calamity and ruin.

The advertising industry, a prominent and powerful industry, engages in deceptive subliminal advertising which most us are unaware of. By bypassing our unconscious mind using subliminal techniques, advertisers tap into the vulnerabilities surrounding our unconscious mind, manipulating and controlling us in many ways. Since the 1940's subliminal advertising blossomed until now, when you can find subliminals in every major advertisement and magazine cover. Legislation against the advertisers has had no effect in curbing the use of subliminals. In this Information Age, it seems people are no longer in control of the people. The ones in control are the ones with knowledge (as usual). In this case, the advertisers have it; you don't. Until now.

The subconcscious is powerful. It is aware of every particle and detail around you. But it doesn't know the difference between fact or fiction and acts on all information passing through the conscious mind as fact, and responds to it. So what do you think happens when you watch silly, moron, goofy commercials and television programs? They are training your thought processes.

Quite an old information but still good 2 have in mind. The 11 years cycle of the Sun (Wikipedia: Solar Cycle) was discovered around 1840. It's a very important cosmic cycle 4 Us here on Earth. Just look at the size of the Sun in comparison with Earth and u will understand the influence the Sun can have on climatic changes on Earth. Global warming would  not b only man-made but also Sun-made - or so it seems... This Solar Cycle should culminate near 2012(don't u know this date... ?).

An Erupting Solar Prominence from SOHO

By Lucian Dorneanu, Science Editor.

A group of researchers have recently announced the creation of a completely new state of matter that combines the characteristics of lasers with those of the world’s best electrical conductors.

They successfully demonstrated the existence of the phase, besides the previously known ones: solids, liquids, gases, plasmas, superfluids, supersolids, Bose-Einstein condensates, fermionic condensates, liquid crystals, strange matter and quark-gluon plasmas.
