"Space & Solar Weather At An All Time High?--What Does It Mean For Us? A Biochemist Explains It All" By Rev. Barbara Sexton "The Biblical Biochemist-Where Science Meets The Cross"

LINK:  Here's a good LINK for 'space weather warnings' in case you want to know what's going on:  http://www.swpc.noaa.gov/rt_plots/kp_3d.html

LINK: http://www.swpc.noaa.gov/rt_plots/kp_3d.html

Dear Ones:
     Look at the diagram above.  It is quite profound.
     For those of you who are not acquainted with my 'TUTORIALS', you will not realize what this means.
     To those of you who are familiar with my 'space weather' tutorials as "the Biblical Biochemist" whose 'hobby' is studying things such as this....you will note that this is an unusually 'high' level for the Kp index.
     The above reflects the energy from the sun ('space weather') that is currently affecting the earth or which has the potential to affect the earth in 1-3 days....my estimate.
     We are currently in a period of 'solar minimum', which means that in the world of astrophysics, the sun is 'quiet' for longer periods of time...but when it DOES finally 'erupt' with solar flares and the like, those events are all the more 'profound'.
     Such is the case now.
     There's been quite a 'jog' magnetically for the earth:

LINK:  http://www.swpc.noaa.gov/rt_plots/mag_3d.html

     No, I can't tell you exactly 'how' the earth will be affected.  All I can say is that the earth WILL be affected in the form of severe weather, earthquakes, satellite disruptions, perhaps tsunamis, tornadoes and any number of unsavory weather events.
     I'm a little surprised myself to see that things are flaring up like this at this time.  Perhaps the 'only thing' you will notice is some minor interruptions while watching your cable t.v.
     (That would be the pesky proton storm in progress, knocking out those satellite transmissions, by the way.)
     Here's a 'graph' of just that:

LINK:     http://www.swpc.noaa.gov/rt_plots/pro_3d.html

     Solar flares are both 'cool' and incredible to witness and recently we've had some 'humdingers'.

     Here's a look at some recent 'solar flares'...also known as 'solar eruptions' or 'coronal mass ejections (CMEs):

link: http://www.solarmonitor.org/

     For your edification, solar flare activity is officially at a 'HIGH' with 8 M-class flares and 13-C class flares in the past 2 days.
     It's not that common to have a 'HIGH' flare level, just so you know.
     The area 'most likely to flare' is number 11302.
     Please check out all these sites yourselves.
     Educate yourself as to what may be happening at this time in earth's history.
     I just find it interesting that just as some of the very worst of human nature appears to be manifesting itself here on earth (just read the news!) that solar 'events' are concurrently...'flaring up'!
     What do you think?  What are your plans for your families if and when a natural disaster strikes in your area?
    Please be prepared for whatever may come.
    And please prepare yourself spiritually for the same.
     Remember that the 'old will pass away' according to Scripture and so I pray that you are all prepared in all ways.
May God Bless & Protect Us All

"Before Hurricane Irene 'Hits' Lower Fairfield County & Stamford, CT Directives" By Reverend Barbara Sexton 'The Biblical Biochemist-Where Science Meets the Cross"

Dear Ones:
     At this time, we are under the 'threat' of a substantial Hurricane named 'Irene'.
     As I prepare, myself, to help with emergency sheltering in the area...and secure my own family...I wanted to make sure to share some information with you.
     Please do take the time to make note of what I've written here, so that you can assure the best safety for yourselves and for your loved ones.
     DO IT NOW!  PLEASE!
     The 'emergency hurricane hot-line number' for Stamford is 203-977-8840.  Use it while you can.
     And most of all, make sure that you have appropriate emergency preparedness supplies and are 'good-to-go' for whatever may befall us.
     Please be prepared for the worst of loss of phone systems and power, flooding, wind,  tree-tumbling, structural damage, lack of food, water and all the essentials we ordinarily take for granted.
     Rest assured that our best emergency preparedness people are 'on top of things'.
     While we pray that we need not initiate the highest levels of assistance for this Hurricane Irene, I can tell you that people like Bobby Valentine (Dir. of Emergency Preparedness for the city of Stamford) and Elizabeth Rodriguez of the MRC (Medical Reserve Corps) have things well in hand.
     But I truly love our most precious of Stamford's Health And Social Services former MRC Director Elaine Braccia R.N. and her group of wonderful, caring healing 'Angels'.
     It is a pure joy to have the opportunity to work with such selfless and 'giving' people!
     There are so many good people in Stamford who care about YOU, dear Readers!
     All that is asked is that you 'stay current', be prepared and be responsible for those around you.
     We are not alone on this earth--our sisters and brothers of all ages are here too!
     Here's the link for Stamford Government Center's 'homepage', which you can check as long as the Internet is up and running:
http://www.ci.stamford.ct.us/#

     Maybe I will see you soon.  If so, please say 'hello' and know that you are in my prayers more than you can ever know.
     And if someone gives you a 'helping hand', please be sure to thank them and go on, yourself, to help others, if you are able!
     As we all work together, we can overcome anything that may befall us with God's love and help.
With Love in Christ,

"Earthquake Scripture In Case You're Curious" By Reverend Barbara Sexton 'Dear Ones Healing Ministry'

 

courtesy www.GospelGifs.com  Jim Sutton

Dear Ones:

     We have experienced an earthquake and may or may not experience more in the form of 'after-shocks' which can be every bit as bad-or even worse-than the original.
     Even as we speak, seismologists at the USGS and elsewhere are still 'fine-tuning' the exact data for the original quake.  In fact, it has been downgraded by the USGS to a 5.8 mag, and at a depth greater than the original one km (0.62 mi).

     I urge one and all to not panic.  Use common sense and listen to public officials for safety information.
     And be sure to click on keyword 'tutorials' for a crash-course on how to understand earthquakes and find useful links for you and your loved one.

     Most of all, take comfort in these words of Scripture.  I quote here the NIV for Protestants and the KJV for Catholic and Orthodox readers, as representative 'versions'.

     Of course, the Word of God is Universal...and so the message is the same in all versions of Holy Scripture.     

     Earthquakes in The New Testament figure prominently in Matthew 24 (meaning 'verse' 24), Luke 21 and Mark 13.  I urge you to read them in their totality yourselves.

      We will start with Matthew 24:6-8.  Jesus is speaking:

 "6You will hear of wars and rumors of wars, but see to it that you are not alarmed. Such things must happen, but the end is still to come. 7Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom; There will be famines and earthquakes in various places. 8All these are the beginning of birth pains."

     Interestingly, in the King James Version of the Bible, we read:"and there shall be famines and pestilences and earthquakes in divers places" Mt 24:7 (KJV)
     Back to the NIV translation, Luke 21 reads: "There will be great earthquakes, famines and pestilences in various places, and fearful events and great signs from heaven." Luke 21:10-11 (NIV)
     Back to the NIV translation, Mark 13 reads: "8Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom.  There will be earthquakes in various places, and famines. These are the beginning of birth pains." Mark 13:8 (NIV)

     The corresponding verse in the KJV reads: "...and there shall be earthquakes in divers places, and there shall be famines and troubles: these are the beginnings of sorrows." Mark 13:8

"Arizona Smoke Spreads to NYC, NJ, MA, KS, FL, LA, Mexico-NATURAL Smoke & Asthma ALTERNATIVE TREATMENTS For You " By Reverend Barbara Sexton 'The Biblical Biochemist-Where Science Meets the Cross"

 

courtesy  http://www.abc15.com/dpp/news/region_northern_az/other/map%3A-wallow-fire-smoke-pours-across-u.s.

 Dear Ones:

     As of today, local Arizona news sources alert us that the U.S. Forest Service indicate that the smoke from the eastern Arizona fire Wallow Fire has spread as far east as New Jersey, New York City, southern Massachusetts and over the Atlantic Ocean.

     It's also moving into Mexico, New Orleans, Kansas and Florida and this will CONTINUE!

     I would urge all of you to stay inside with air-conditioning wherever possible.  Be sure to seek the advice of your personal health care advisor if you are in a smoke-filled area, as to how to 'proceed' while this smoke and fire event continues.

     It may be that the only 'safe' thing to do will be to move to a smoke-free area for the duration.

     Few have 'respirators', but in a pinch, N-95 (those 'hard' facial masks) masks may help...as will something as simple as a wet bandanna wrapped over the nose and mouth.

     Contact lens wearer, take care and maybe use your old 'specs', unless your eye health care provider says otherwise.  Use your common sense if smoke particles get 'caught' under a lens.

     Cotton stuffing in the nose can work in an emergency, if you are able to breathe only through your nose.

     Asthma sufferers, take special care.  See my 'ASTHMA CHRONICLES' for in depth natural alternative treatments of asthma in adults and children.

LINK: http://dearoneshealingministry.blogspot.com/p/asthma-chronicles.html

     Since this is an emergency situation for so many, my 'crash-course' on alternative care for ASTHMA-Smoke-induced or other- is as follows:

     For adults:  take one Solaray Brand Lobelia 50 mg capsule at the onset of an attack, up to 4 caps per day.  Lobelia can be taken when inhalers 'fail' or are unavailable.  It can also be taken as a 'adjunct asthma treatment' to supplement whatever pharmaceuticals a patient may be taking.

     If you prefer the stronger and faster liquid extract, I recommend lobelia liquid extract.

     My general rule for dosing in adults is 4-7 drops of either the vinegar or alcohol Lobelia extract.

     Many people think the vinegar extract 'tastes like salad dressing' and it can be taken alone right in the mouth, to stop an asthma attack in it's tracks!

BE SURE TO CHECK WITH YOUR PERSONAL HEALTH CARE PROVIDER BEFORE TAKING LOBELIA OR ANY OTHER ALTERNATIVE REGIMEN SUGGESTED HERE.

     (I pray that your physician has an extensive knowledge of herbs and is enlightened enough to be open-minded and to trust that you, the consumer, are capable of examining and are 'entitled to' ALL your options!)

     Since many 'lungs' have already been filled with smoke and soot, I am also recommending a rarely heard of herb called elecampane.  Herb Pharm has this in liquid extract form.  Unlike the pharmaceutical guaifenesin found in over-the-counter 'expectorant' formulas, elecampane actually WORKS as an expectorant.

     (Guaifenesin has been 'grandfathered-in', although it has never actually been proven to have the 'efficiency or efficacy' necessary were an NDA (new drug application) submitted for it today!  Note to pharmaceutical professionals: I welcome any data which challenges my assertion here.  Please  send mail to: BarbaraKSexton@aol.com )

       The dose for the elecampane is one dropperful every 6 hrs as needed, to be taken on a daily basis for no more than 10 days.

     I recommend that elecampane be given during waking hours, as you will want to 'work with' your body as you cough up whatever residue may be in your lungs.

     The third component of my 'smoke/asthma regimen' is the addition of liquid Echinacea Root extract at a dose of two dropperfuls every six hours.  

     Echinacea root extract may be taken for as long as six weeks at a time.  Consult your alternative health care provider for information on the proper way to 'cycle' dosing with this herbal immunostimulant/cleanser/remover of toxins.

     Place your liquid extracts TOGETHER in a little pure water, swirl and drink.

     For extra effect-especially with smoke-irritated throats-GARGLE with this mixture, then swallow, for the echinacea is a 'natural mouth and throat anesthetic'.  You will know you've got 'good extract' if your tongue 'tingles' a bit after you take echinacea.

     Write my suggestions here on an index card and carry them with you so that you will have this information with you at all times.

     And be sure to build your own 'natural alternative FIRST AID KIT'.

     Remember that in most emergencies, regular medical supplies will run out and you must be prepared to care for yourself and your loved ones (don't forget PETS) with whatever means you have on hand until you can get to your regular health care provider!

As crews start to get a handle on the Wallow Fire , smoke continues to pour across the U.S. continent.
The wildfire in eastern Arizona had burned through more than 408,000 acres as of Friday.
A map posted on the U.S. Forest Service website show smoke from the Wallow Fire has drifted through the Midwest as far east as New Jersey, New York City, the southern tip of Massachusetts and over the Atlantic Ocean.
The smoke is also moving south and southeast into Mexico and through the Gulf of Mexico, through New Orleans and into northwestern Florida.
The heaviest smoke is seen heading northeast into New Mexico and into southern Kansas; through several Midwest and around New Orleans.
The Wallow fire started May 29 and is believed to be human caused.

"Use Robots To Deal With Japan Earthquake-Damaged Reactors" By Reverend Barbara Sexton "The Biblical Biochemist-Where Science Meets the Cross"

WATCH THIS ON YOUTUBE: www.youtube.com/watch?v=snB24BHw1mw&NR=1
Dear Readers:
     Of all the nations involved in robo-technology, Japan is certainly a world leader.
     I have written about this before.  Click on keyword 'robots' below.
     Certainly the most sophisticated versions of humanoid 'bots' are capable of helping to 'cool and contain' nuclear plants on the verge of so-called 'melt-down', in coordination with direct human intelligence and control.
     Rather than risk human life for 'intelligent work' at Japan's nuclear reactors, robots should be considered, at least for 'crude tasks', whenever it is possible.
     Of course, the Japanese government as well as relief and aid agencies and cooperating countries should 'buy' the robots outright from their developer-owners and then lease the services of the latter, as well.
     Any robots used during this earthquake-related nuclear emergency will have to be considered 'lost' in the sense that they will contaminated after exposure to whatever radiation levels are being generated at any given point.
     One aside on the ethics and morality of this 'suggestion': robots are already capable of independent 'thought' and 'learning' in the sense that they are capable of rudimentary 'decision-making' using the algorithms set up for their use by HUMANS.
     However, at this point, I would argue that even the most realistic looking/feeling/acting robot is not a sentient being, even though one may feign jubilation at beating me at chess.
     So as long as we are on the subject, I would ask robot-developers if they understand the ramifications of imbuing their 'bots' with greater and greater decision-making capabilities and autonomy?
     Are robot-developers of the present and future prepared to deal with the consequences of 'over-humanisizing' our machines?
     Will robot-developers be willing to send a 'cherished robot' into a dangerous situation in the future such as what we are facing in Japan today?
     Or will everyone feel more comfortable just making a 'slave category' of robot to do humankind's 'dirty work'?
     Robot sentience and 'robot slaves' are mutually exclusive and the line between the two will forever be a source of distress to at least some human beings.
     And since bio-science is already amalgamating the 'mechanical' with the 'biological', I envision a future where the line between 'living' and 'mechanized' is even more difficult to discern.
     I pray to not have to ever deal with such things in my lifetime, but for now--
     Bring out the 'bots' if it is possible and preserve humanity.
God Bless Us All

"Geomagnetic Storm Causing Japan Earthquakes Is Worsening" By Reverend Barbara Sexton "The Biblical Biochemist-Where Science Meets the Cross"

http://www.swpc.noaa.gov/rt_plots/kp_3d.html

Dear Ones:
     I am sorry to tell you that the 'space weather' affecting earth right now is worsening.
     Let me tell you, this is the last thing we need with the obvious destabilization of the earth's crust currently taking place.
     Above is a graph of the Kp planetary index, which is a reflection of the energy impacting the earth from the sun.
     I had hoped that solar activity would either lessen or stabilize, but this is not to be the case.
     Here is a graph of X-ray activity, as in X-ray energy being thrown off the sun, some of which will hit earth:

http://www.swpc.noaa.gov/rt_plots/xray_5m.html

     In view of Japan's crumbling nuclear facilities, the last thing this area needs--as well as the rest of the earth where radioactive fallout from Japan will end up--is additional radiation from the sun.

     Yes, this all affects the stability of the earth's crust, as does all energy hitting the earth from the sun.

     Another 'factor' affecting the earth's 'stability' is proton emission from the sun affecting the earth.

     Below is a graph of that:

http://www.swpc.noaa.gov/rt_plots/pro_3d.html

      And here is a graph of how the earth's magnetic field is being affected, below:

courtesy http://www.swpc.noaa.gov/rt_plots/mag_3d.html

     I cannot emphasize how important it is for all capable and reasonable individuals to read my 'Tutorials' (click the keyword below) and learn about what is happening as Geomagnetic Storms generated from severe space weather affect the earth.

     No place on earth is immune.

     We are all affected.

     And as a minister, I am tempted to remind us that , "We are not alone in this world.  Our brothers and sisters are here, too."

     Please pay attention and take appropriate precautions to 'stay safe', be prepared and most of all...learn to trust in our Lord who never fails those who love Him and who instructs us to:

      'Be not afraid'!

"Breaking News: Huge Japan Earthquakes (Prelim. 7.4 & 5.6) Just Now, Lunar Eclipse Last Night & California Flooded" By Reverend Barbara Sexton

 

http://www.iris.edu/seismon/

Dear Ones:

     It must be 'Christmas', with never a dull moment.  Last night the world was treated to a lunar eclipse--a wondrous sight to behold for those who saw it 'live' and/or recorded this morning.
     The 'breaking news' is that Japan has just suffered a major earthquake this past hour.  And we hear that California is suffering from unprecedented precipitation.
     According to the USGS LINK: http://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/recenteqsww/, the data for the Japan quake are as follows:
Update time = Tue Dec 21 18:16:37 UTC 2010
      MAG/ UTC DATE-TIME  y/m/d h:m:s/ LA deg /LON deg/ DEPTH km/ Region

"About The Earthquakes In Japan & Elsewhere Today" By Reverend Barbara Sexton "The Biblical Biochemist-Where Science Meets the Cross"

Today's 6.6 Mag earthquake in Japan & elsewhere

LINK: http://www.iris.edu/seismon/

Dear Ones:
     Yesterday I wrote a 'piece' on tornadoes attendant to energy from the sun reaching earth (as indicated by a rise in the Kp Index (the 'planetary K Index') and causing geomagnetic storm activity. LINK: http://dearoneshealingministry.blogspot.com/2010/11/about-tornadoes-today-by-reverend.html
     If you've been following my 'Tutorials', you know by now that energy from the sun can combine with the internal energy of the earth as well as with 'atmospheric energy' to produce: tornadoes, earthquakes, volcanoes, tsunamis, floods, storms, lightning, thunder, auroras and any number of observable earth weather phenomena.
     Today, we had a substantial 6.6 magnitude earthquake in Japan after 'yesterday's' USA tornadoes.  I thank God that engineers there have been able to design and construct 'earthquake-resistant' structures, since Japan is so seismically active.
     The details of this earthquake are as follows.
DATE               TIME        LAT    LON  MAG  DEPTH km   LOCATION
30-NOV-2010 03:24:41 28.41 139.14 6.6 478.3 BONIN ISLANDS REGION
    
     The two earthquake data links I recommend are:
LINK: http://www.iris.edu/seismon/  for those with a mag >=4.0  and
LINK: http://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/recenteqsww/ for smaller ones.
     The 'lesson' for today is this: yesterday's solar energy affecting the earth (as tornadoes across the USA) are TODAY also spawning some seismic activity, such as that in Japan.  Fortunately, this 6.6 quake was a 'deep one', at 478.3 km below the earth's surface.  As you will learn from my my Free 'Tutorials' (click below), 'the shallower the earthquake, the greater the potential for damage it has, in general'.
     It is almost impossible to precisely 'predict' when and where 'geomagnetic storm activity' on earth will manifest itself.  USUALLY, it takes 'a few days' for released solar flare energy to actually have an effect on our planet. 
     When and where this energy 'hits' is an imprecise science, at best.  We do well to observe all natural indicators (including animal behavior!) as we monitor our instrumentation.
     WE can learn to be on the ALERT when one of our NOAA or NASA sources indicates 'incoming energy' and attempt to anticipate how 'space weather' will be affecting our 'earth weather' via the 'geomagnetic storms' of movie fame...and which really do exist.
     Officials rarely want to 'alarm' anyone...even when they are giving the go-ahead to divulge an opinion.  Alas, by the time any 'official alerts' get to the public-at-large, it is often 'too late' for the masses to 'take action'.
     For this reason, I am encouraging all of you to take the sensible steps necessary to assure yourselves that (as long as you have computer access of some sort) that you are current with weather events.  This is especially important if you live in an earthquake-prone area or know someone who does.
     You owe it to yourselves and your families to take a few moments with my 'Tutorials.  You will quickly see the usefulness of the links and information I provide you with and that they are worth paying attention to.
     The 'scientist' in me is fascinated by today's technology even as the 'spiritual me' reaches out to the world in faith.
In Him,
Reverend Barbara Sexton

"About The Tornadoes Today" By Reverend Barbara Sexton "The Biblical Biochemist-Where Science Meets the Cross"

LINK:  http://www.swpc.noaa.gov/rt_plots/kp_3d.html

Dear Ones:
     You might be noting some 'extreme weather' in the form of tornadoes, etc., across the country today...or some 'other' day, for that matter. 
     I just want to point out that this correlates with some unstable 'space weather'...the energy of which is hitting the earth from the sun.
     Overall, our 'sun' is in what we call at a 'Solar Minimum'.  What this means is that while overall sun activity (in the form of solar flares and concurrent x-ray, electrical, proton, radio and other energy forms) occurs less frequently...the 'flare-ups' often stronger when they do occur.
LINK: http://science.nasa.gov/science-news/science-at-nasa/2009/01apr_deepsolarminimum/
     As I have detailed in my 'Tutorials' (click below), when solar energy from a solar eruption manages to hit our planet, it is manifested in many ways, such as earthquakes, storms, tornadoes, etc. 
     Don't forget that the earth, itself, is the source of energy from down below the earth's crust, all the way down to it's core.  This 'earth energy' can combine with the 'geomagnetic storm energy' from the sun, resulting in earthquakes and the 'geomagnetic storms' of movie fame.
     Sometimes there is a 'lag period' of several days before we 'notice' anything here...and sometimes there is hardly any lag period at all.  Many factors enter into play, as you will learn.
     Above is the 'planetary Kp index' of the last couple of days. LINK: http://www.swpc.noaa.gov/rt_plots/kp_3d.html   Those 'yellow bars' represent 'energy' contributing to today's unstable weather (tornadoes in particular).  Whatever seismic activity there may be on earth today stands the chance of being at least a little bit intensified by the energy hitting earth from the sun, to be sure.
     Be sure to check NOAA's "Current Space Weather Warnings in effect" if you detect some foul weather coming your way so that you can judge for yourself how intense the activity might be for you and your loved ones locally.
LINK: http://www.swpc.noaa.gov/alerts/warnings_timeline.html      Here's today's Space Weather Warnings in effect:

"Today's Geomagnetic Storms On Earth:How To Check For Space Weather Alerts and Warnings" By Reverend Barbara Sexton

http://www.swpc.noaa.gov/alerts/warnings_timeline.html

Dear Ones:
     As you know, these last few days have been fraught with severe weather, earthquakes and a volcanic eruption on earth.  These are substantially 'due to' energy hitting the earth in various forms from 'space'.  Most of this energy is specifically from the sun.
     It takes, arguably, 3-5 days for rogue energy from the sun 'to hit earth'.   It is no easy task to accurately predict WHERE the energy hits at any given time, since our planet is in constant motion.  Above is a great LINK you can check to see what 'Space Weather Alerts and Warnings' are in effect as determined by NOAA , the Space Weather Prediction Center.
     'NOAA' stands for The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. This federal agency concentrates on oceanic and atmospheric conditions.  For obvious reasons, NOAA coordinates with NASA, the National Aeronautics and Space Administration   http://www.nasa.gov/
     Officials don't ordinarily speak to the public in terms of 'GEOMAGNETIC STORMS', but if you check out the NOAA link above http://www.swpc.noaa.gov/alerts/warnings_timeline.html   you will quickly get the full story for yourself.  
     Please see my 'TUTORIALS' for complete information on how GEOMAGNETIC STORMS are produced and categorized by various scientific entities.  This will then help you make much greater sense of what you see and hear on your favorite weather channels.
God Bless & Keep You,

"Prelim 7.5 Indonesia Earthquake; Texas Tonadoes & Wyoming Quake" By Reverend Barbara Sexton "The Biblical Biochemist-Where Science Meets the Cross"

http://www.iris.edu/seismon/

Dear Ones:
     Recently there has been a great deal of 'space weather' (solar activity, more specifically) which is affecting the earth.  The energy from the sun 'affects' us in the form of earthquakes, among other things, and a preliminary magnitude earthquake of 7.5 has hit Indonesia.
     Given that the USGS (U.S. Geological Survey) has determined a 'depth' of 14.2 km, this is a quake which could produce tsunami problems.  In general, the 'shallower the quake', the worse the surface damage.

     There have also been powerful tornados and storms in Texas today...not surprising when we look at a map of the Kp (planetary Kp index, that is) which is a reflection of the energy hitting the earth which manifests itself as a 'geomagnetic storm'.

      You will also note that the Auroral Power Input Oval (a visualization of the energy hitting the earth from the sun) is a substantial 7.0 today:

'Olfactory Memories Of September 11, 2001' By Reverend Barbara Sexton "The Biblical Biochemist-Where Science Meets the Cross"

courtest http://www.gospelgifs.com/   Jim Sutton

     Nothing will wipe away the olfactory memories I carry to this day of what I smelled on that sad September 11, 2001.
      Imprinted in my brain is the 'smell' of a mixture of 'the smoke'...of wet concrete dust and some wood...of jet fuel and more smoke.
      I have a 'good nose' as a chemist and always did.  What served me so well while formulating and testing drugs and cosmetics only served to torture me.  Now I know for certain that sometimes ignorance really is bliss.
     We saw the orange glow and the smoke from our vantage point, too.  We viewed it from the land and we viewed it from the water as we cruised at a 'respectful speed' towards the horizon of burning, smoking, glowing, hazy-hot what-used-to-be the WTC area of Manhattan.  Others joined in this 'spontaneous flotilla'--ready to help, accompanied and observed by the Naval and U.S. Coast Guard and other ships in the area.
     In a sense we were all there involuntarily.  We were drawn to the water in order to get as close to 'Ground Zero' as possible for whatever may come after the initial terrible crashes, explosions and collapses.
     All of us were on alert, while at the same time grieving, shaking our heads at the vision unfolding before us.  We could only take in only so much before we slowly headed for port for more grieving, responding and strategizing.
     When a plane flew overhead, whether we were on land or sea, all eyes assessed it anxiously.  Was it ours?  Would it be shot out of the sky?  We were ready for anything by that time and 'up' for it, too.
      Things got much worse fast.  After four or five days the even more ominous odor of death and decay wafted towards the house, over the Sound and smack dab in our direction.  It was so bad by then, that smell creeping opportunistically every time someone dared to open a door or window.  There was no such thing as 'getting some fresh air'.  There was no such thing as 'catching one's breath' after being overcome with emotion.  The air was ropey and foul--thick with heartbreak, anger and fear.
     You'd have to hold you breath between house and car, those of us doing 'community work'.  The air was saturated with the stench of terrorism in a way I shall never forget and I was changed that day.  As the ashes of a beloved sprinkled below a growing plant become a part of that plant, so that stench became a part of all of us, as we breathed those days.  Our skin and hair absorbed it;  there was no escape at all.
     On the day that the odor of decaying human bodies first arrived at our door, I impulsively 'took the day off' and drove up the line.  I had to escape that stench and nothing short of a family emergency would hold me back.
     Me--the one with the 'strong stomach'--I couldn't take it.  All that I'd seen and smelled and experienced over the years meant nothing these first weeks after September 11, 2001. 
     I think it was the persistent and lingering 'jet fuel' bottom note on 'stinker day' that finally made me break down.  I wished I couldn't detect what I could. 
     Today I will tell you something I've never spoken of publicly before.  I knew that this 'new' smell reaching us represented those walking wounded who never reached us at our Stamford Rail Road Station/Stamford Hospital Triage staging area. 
     Steel vaporizes, you know (or so an architect friend told me the day of the attacks).  That's why the two towers 'collapsed' as they did.  I don't know how an architect can know with such certainty a few hours after the attacks that 'there would be no survivors'...but that's what he told me.  I listened to him and was better prepared for what was to come counseling-wise because he was right.
     So that scent of molten, vaporized steel--that was something I'd never smelled before either and you can add that note to the repellent and deadly smell of terrorism those first few weeks after Sept. 11.
     Even as I was 'escaping', I was reviewing likely 'constructs' sure to evolve around the debate of 'whether or not' first responders and survivors of 9/11 would sustain lasting respiratory and other injuries and sequelae.  Shades of 'Agent Orange' debate from years ago when Uncle cruelly rejected victim claims. 
     How much better today that September 11, 2001 claims were not so similarly dismissed, but still, it's been a struggle to see justice meted out so that truly innocent victims can be compensated.
     These are my olfactory memories of those days.  I've auditory, visual, tactile and worse sensory memories I don't completely share, but these are some.  
God Bless America,
Reverend Barbara Sexton

'A Tutorial Tutorial: Look Up To The Sky Tonight" By Reverend Barbara Sexton "The Biblical Biochemist-Where Science Meets the Cross"

http://www.swpc.noaa.gov/alerts/warnings_timeline.html

You know what the above NOAA warnings chart means? It means you should look up at the sky tonight and tomorrow for a potential light show known as the 'aurora borealis' aka 'northern lights'.


There's been a massive CME (coronal mass ejection). This means that all the solar Tutorials I've tortured you with (if you played along) these many months have not been for naught. YOU will be able to astound your family and friends with your knowledge of a new solar 'age', a new 'solar cycle', if you will : )


You, dear students,  will be able to describe geomagnetic storms with the best of them!  For anyone who would like some refresher courses or to just be tortured by Rev. Barb's 'Tutorials' (list below and on right) for the FIRST TIME, just click on something and read away.


But quickly, so you can 'sound smart' when the kids start asking you what's going on. No, really. They'll especially be impressed when you tell them also to expect some significant seismic activity and show them how to see all of it recorded in 'real time'.


That's it for now, I hope.
In Christ,
Rev. Barbara Sexton

US Servicemembers & Families: New TRICARE Med Data Storage Feature Available Posted By Rev. Barbara Sexton "The Biblical Biochemist-Where Science Meets the Cross"

american Graphic Comments

New TRICARE Feature Available

Week of June 21, 2010

Dear Ones:
     Here is something that may help authorized TRICARE users to improve their health care data storage and tracking.  TRICARE Online (TOL) is a web site of the Military Health System. The Office of the Assistant Secretary of Defense, Health Affairs and the TRICARE Management Activity provides it as a public service for those who qualify.
     In this day and age of terrorism, natural disasters and other disruptions, it really is a good idea for everyone to make sure their medical data is preserved and secured.  As a matter of fact, I urge each and every one of you to be sure to include copies of your medical records in your 'Family Disaster Supplies Kit'  http://www.ctredcross.org/pdf/Your_Family_Disaster_Supplies_Kit.pdf as recommended by the American Red Cross.  As a member of the MRC (Medical Reserve Corps) in CT http://www.cityofstamford.org/content/25/52/140/214/364/402/103692/default.aspx  I will be giving you some valuable tips in the future so that when the need arises, you will be able to evacuate to safety--or shelter 'in-place' should--God forbid--it be necessary.
     In the meantime, here is one avenue of recourse for members of the DoD/Military and their dependents who qualify for TRICARE.  Military.com surveys have found that most servicemembers and their families are confused by TRICARE.  It is my honor to help keep you up-to-date.  And as always, if I can assist you with anything in particular with medical matters, be it info, paperwork or something else, just email me at BarbaraKSexton@aol.com .  I will help you any way I can.
     Again, thank you and God Bless You for your hard work and sacrifice for our fine country.
God Bless You and God Bless America!
