Three Killed, 25 Seriously Injured as

7.5 Earthquake Rocks Indonesia

by Mitch Battros - Earth Changes Media

NOTE: Although today's earthquake fits the lower parameter of extreme earth changes, I do not believe this will be the ultimate event of this particular Full Lunar Eclipse occurrence. Watch for a larger episode, or combination of events such as an earthquake/tsunami or earthquake/volcanic eruption. ECM is on full alert and will provide information as it occurs. (Mitch Battros)

A powerful 7.5 mag. earthquake struck Indonesia killing three people and injuring 25 seriously early this morning. An initial Tsunami warming was issued, then approximately ninety minutes later removed. The large quake rocked the Island of Simeulue, just after 8PM local time (8AM GMT) as reported by the USGS.

Simeulue Island is in the Aceh province of Indonesia, west of Sumatra Island which is home to around 75,000 people. Rustam Pakaya, the head of the Indonesian health ministry's disaster center, said "many" buildings on Simeulue had been damaged and a panic swept through the neighborhoods. Residents in the west and north of Sumatra Island also felt the quake. Some fled their homes, running to high ground in coastal areas in fear of a tsunami.

A 9.0 magnitude earthquake close to Simeulue on 26 December 2004 triggered the Asian tsunami which spread thousands of kilometers across the Indian Ocean killing over 230,000 people. Three months later, an 8.7-magnitude earthquake killed 1,000 people on Simeulue and the neighboring Island of Nias.

Earth Changes Media 'Radio Hour'

Thursday February 7th - Dr. John Bradley; director of the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory's Institute for Geophysics and Planetary Physics. Dr. Bradley is head researcher of the "Stardust Project". Remember the "Deep Impact Mission"? It appears our surmise was right on the money. There is very little difference between asteroids and comets. Website: http://physci.llnl.gov/stardust/stardust.html

Tuesday February 12th - Dr. Alexander Goncharov, Dr. Jonathan Crowhurst, and Dr. Mike Brown; The Earth Core is "Softer" than once believed. Their new research suggests that material in part of the lower mantle has unusual electronic characteristics that make sound propagate more slowly, suggesting that the material there is softer than previously thought. The results call into question the traditional techniques for understanding this region of the planet.

Wednesday February 13th Special Announcement: I will have Jim Berkland, Geologist on the ECM 'Radio Hour' tomorrow night "live" Feb. 13th to discuss the current events in Baja as well as the Feb. 20/21st Full Lunar Eclipse. Jim is most known for his accuracy in predicting earthquakes. Website: www.syzygyjob.com/

Tuesday February 19th - Dr. Siegfried Schubert of NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center. Dr. Schubert is a lead researcher in the study of El Nino and La Nina. We will discuss his new findings indicating 'coupled ocean-atmosphere' effect that has a sweeping influence on weather around the world.

Tuesday February 26th - Matthew Stein, author of "When Technology Fails" - We will discuss how to survive Climate Change, Hurricanes, Superstorms- Peak Oil and Gasoline Shortages- Sustainable Living and Self-Reliant Communities- Disruptions in Supplies and Services -Biological Terrorism and Pandemics- Skyrocketing Energy Bills- Earthquakes, Floods, Wildfires. Website: http://www.whentechfails.com/

Tuesday March 4th - J. Marvin Herndon, Geophysicist; He is the proponent of a radical theory about Earth's core and its relationship to Earth's magnetic field, the shield that protects our planet's animal and plant life from the Sun's radiation.

Tuesday March 11th - Solara - author of "11:11 Inside the Doorway". She is one of my favorite guests. I am one who has been transfixed on 11:11 for some years. I knew it just had to be more than a coincidence. "11:11 is our wake-up call. It is our map for the next twenty years. The 11:11 is our bridge to ascension. It is our doorway Home"

Preparing For Coming Earth Changes

I have begun to note it is not just the "external" (earth changes) which is shifting, but humans as well. Remember: we too have magnetic fields which surround each of us. I think it is not unrealistic to conjecture what is happening "externally" is also happening "internally". I believe current science will acknowledge this notion, showing the Sun's "charged particles" and its influence on Earth's magnetic field is the impetus of change. In-like, this same causal effect occurs with human magnetic fields ushering in a change or "transition". Perhaps this is what our Mayan elders are trying to tell us---

We are coming into "cycle 24" which was predicted "live" on ECM Radio Hour by NASA stating cycle 24 will be up to 50 percent stronger than "Cycle 23" in which we witnessed the largest solar flare ever recorded. This means larger earth changing events in the way of earthquakes, volcanoes, hurricanes, and various storms. But it also means we (humans) will be bombarded with charged particles via severe geomagnetic storms from the Sun. (Mitch Battros) http://earthchangesmedia.com/publish/article-9162520155.php
