What is twisting our antenna today,

November 2, 2011?

Testing the Emergency Alert System.

Get your tinfoil hats on NOW.  You’re going to need them. 

WASHINGTON, D.C. — The U.S. Department of Homeland Security’s Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) and the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) will conduct the first nationwide test of the Emergency Alert System (EAS). The nationwide test will occur on Wednesday, November 9 at 2 p.m. eastern standard time and may last up to three and a half minutes.

The EAS is a national alert and warning system established to enable the President United States (then, an act of the Truman administration) to notify the American public during emergencies.  NOAA’s National Weather Service, governors and state and local emergency authorities also use parts of the system to issue more localized emergency alerts. http://www.fema.gov/news/newsrelease.fema?id=55722

On November 9, at 2 PM EST, FEMA will transmit the EAS code for national level emergencies to Primary Entry Point (PEP) stations in the national level of the EAS. The PEP stations will then rebroadcast the alert to the general public in their broadcast vicinity, as well as to the next level of EAS Participants monitoring them. This should continue through all levels of the system.

Not to worry, this is only a test. [clear throat here, uh ha, right?]

Could it be a test of The Human Identification at a Distance (HumanID) project developed automated biometric identification technologies?  Designed to detect, recognize and identify humans at great distances for “force protection”, crime prevention, and “homeland security/defense” purposes? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Information_Awareness_Office.  Hold your phone a little higher for a signal, eh?

Maybe the Evidence Extraction and Link Discovery (EELD) to learn patterns designed to design systems will come into play.  EELD is supposed to have the ability to extract data from multiple sources (e.g., text messages, social networking sites, financial records, and web pages.) Perhaps we should focus on Project ECHELON during the test of the EBS.  The ability to intercept communications depends on the medium used, be it radio, satellite, microwave, cellular or fiber-optic. 

All of the above?

As two-way meters and sensors get installed, a number of companies are focusing on the networking portion of the grid. SmartSynch, for example, makes a “grid router” designed to talk multiple protocols and Cisco last week announced a deal with Itron to develop IP-based communications technology. via http://news.cnet.com/8301-11128_3-20015875-54.html

Innocently enough- turn to the NOAA’s National Weather Service, The Weather Channel (TWC) and Intellicast for a moment.  Intellicast is a division of WSI- Weather Services International. http://wsi.com/ where, “The weather affects 6.6 billion people every day.”

The Weather Channel Companies are owned by a consortium of nice folks just like so many other companies.  TWC owners are NBC Universal and private equity firms Bain Capital and The Blackstone Group.

Comcast is a 51% owner of NBC and GE owns 49%.  Who headed Blackstone?  Peter G. Peterson. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peter_G._Peterson His resume includes Chairman and CEO of Lehman Brothers (1973–1977).  He succeeded David Rockefeller as Chairman of the Council on Foreign Relations in 1985 and served until his retirement in 2007.  He was also Chairman of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York between 2000 and 2004. He is also reported to being founder, general counsel, and head of the Association for International Investment, a senior partner in the law firm of Milbank, Tweed, Hadley & McCloy. One of the firm’s clients is the government of Japan. etc…

You may recall- Blackstone Group selling Larry Silverstein the WTC leases just before WTC/911.

“The money was never repaid since the ten-year Brady bonds–purchased before September 13, 1991 using the fraudulent collateral and gold bullion as security came due on September 12, 2001–the day after the 9.11 attacks, having allegedly been underwritten and held by the trustee, Cantor-Fitzgerald bond brokerage firm [whose offices on floors 101-105 in the North Tower of the World Trade Center (WTC) were destroyed on 9.11 along with the Brady bond evidence].” link to www.kycbs.net

Take a turn to Bain Capital, one of the world’s leading private, alternative asset management firms whose affiliates manage approximately $66 billion. http://www.baincapital.com/ Founded by Presidential Candidate Mitt Romney! And what does Bain own you ask?  Enterprise Electronics Corporation, EEC.

Despite the pressures at Bain Capital, Mitt Romney kept the atmosphere loose. One year, after posing for a photo for a firm brochure, the partners did another take, the second time holding $10 and $20 bills. From left, Fraser Bullock, Eric A. Kriss, Joshua Bekenstein, Mitt Romney, Coleman Andrews, Geoffrey S. Rehnert, and Robert F. White. (Provided by Bain Capital)

As a side note, we’d be guessing that Herman Cain and Godfather Pizza is out of Japan as U.S. private equity firm Bain Capital said in January, 2010,  it would acquire the Japan franchisee of Domino’s Pizza. http://news.stv.tv/business/152764-bain-capital-to-buy-dominos-pizza-in-japan/

EEC’s motto http://www.eecradar.com/ is,

“Taking The Weather Industry by Storm.”

Who creates the storm?  Is your umbrella tilting a bit yet?  EEC is affiliated with DRS Technologies. http://www.drs.com/Products/index.aspx

DRS Technologies is a leading supplier of integrated products, services and support to military forces, intelligence agencies and prime contractors worldwide. Focused on defense technology, the company develops, manufactures and supports a broad range of mission-critical systems and sustainment solutions to support homeland security and the military’s current and future force.

DRS holds leading market positions in thermal imaging devices, combat display workstations, electronic sensor systems, power systems, rugged computer systems, air combat training systems, mission recorders, deployable flight incident recorders, environmental control systems, telecommunication systems, aircraft loaders, military trailers and shelters, and integrated logistics support services.

Military trailers and shelters? Like the white ones at FEMA?  Have you checked U.S. Shipping ports lately? Check out the amount of cute little white vehicles in Oxnard, CA. http://mapq.st/t7jzHh. If the link doesn’t pick up, map quest Lat 34.161 Long -19.21 Port Heuneme Naval Cbc, CA93043 or about 32nd ave & Lehman Road, Oxnard, CA.

Are all those white vehicles near a Navy Port waiting for import/export processing?  And we thought the U.S. auto industry was in a slump.

From http://commonsensewonder.blogspot.com/2011/10/test-or-demonstration-of-obamas-power.html notes that, “The Commission’s choice of Nov. 9 as the test date is fueling speculation from an uneasy public. Nov. 9 in Europe and in military parlance is 9/11/11.”  And asks poignantly, “America’s Emergency Alert System has never shut down all television, radio, cable TV and satellite radio in its entire lifespan, so there is much anxiety about why it’s being done now.”

What about mobile phones?

Known as the Personal Localized Alerting Network, or PLAN, the new system will be a free service for people in New York and Washington who have enabled phones and are customers of Verizon, AT&T, Sprint or T-Mobile mobile phone systems.

“This new technology could become a lifeline for millions of Americans and is another tool that will strengthen our nation’s resilience against all hazards,” W. Craig Fugate, the administrator of the Federal Emergency Management Agency, said in a statement.

Julius Genachowski, the chairman of the Federal Communications Commission, said the system was designed to minimize the ability of hackers or spammers to send fraudulent messages. The alerts could appear directly on a cellphone screen, for example, rather than appear as a text message notification, and would probably be accompanied by a special vibration or other kind of signal. via http://mediamonarchy.blogspot.com/2011/05/emergency-alert-plan-coming-to-your.html

Curious to know what other major service companies there are other than Verizon, AT&T, Sprint or T-Mobile mobile phone systems?

A special vibration signal?  WTF? A vibrator in my pocket?

Back to the weather or at least weather prediction for just a moment- something we’re mostly familiar with, NOWARD, the National Operational Weather Radar.  So who might own NOWARD ?

The Weather Channel and WSI! They also provide a significant amount of Flight Information Services http://news.thomasnet.com/companystory/WSI-Enhances-Winter-NOWrad-Products-812843#_normalStart. Does that include commercial flight information?  You betcha.

A little light at the end of the tunnel comes from, the founder of The Weather Channel-  John Coleman who in 2007 spoke out strongly against the man made global warming myth saying:

It is the greatest scam in history. I am amazed, appalled and highly offended by it. Global Warming; It is a SCAM….Now their ridiculous manipulated science has been accepted as fact and become a cornerstone issue for CNN, CBS, NBC, the Democratic Political Party, the Governor of California, school teachers and, in many cases, well informed but very gullible environmental conscientious citizens. More: http://newsbusters.org/blogs/noel-sheppard/2007/11/07/weather-channel-founder-global-warming-greatest-scam-history#ixzz1cZOlNvYM

Is this test of the EAS just predictive programming? 

What about Near Earth Objects, Nuclear, Solar, atmospherics threats?  Could the events from Fukushima have sent enough alpha, beta and gamma ray particles into the atmosphere to effect the weather?  And, just what kind of energy is the earth releasing before and after major earthquakes as seen in Turkey, Japan, Italy, etc?

 

Don’t forget about the capabilities from The Land Down Under. The Joint Defence Facility Pine Gap, previously it was known as Joint Defence Space Research Facility.  It is a a satellite tracking station at 23°47′56″S 133°44′13″E / 23.799°S 133.737°E / -23.799; 133.737, some 18 kilometres (11 mi) south-west of the town of Alice Springs in the centre of Australia which is operated by both Australia and the United States.  Pine Gap is the only area in Australia designated as “prohibited” which prohibits entering and overflying the airspace.

Duly noted — “Look at the audacity of Barrack Hussein Obama. He announced this week he will be the 1st sitting President to use the Emergency Alert System (EAS, the annoying test you hear occasionally on TV and Radio)...Not even the terrorist attack on 9/11 warranted President Bush to use EAS, but Obama is going to.” http://theaspiringsurvivalist.blogspot.com/2011/02/obama-announced-this-week-he-will-be.html

 

 

The Santa NORAD Tracker is an entertainment program designed for the Christmas holiday. It has been around since 1955. {Because you know we had computers, GPS, and the internet way back when}  The Christmas program is run by the North American Aerospace Defense Command, NORAD. http://www.santanoradtracker.com/
