Scientists Claim To Successfully Predict
Earthquakes
01/09/2004 09:50 PM
When I first moved to California from New York, and expressed to someone my concern about earthquakes, I was told that it's no different than natural disasters like hurricanes that hit the east coast. Of course, there is a very big difference: with a hurricane, you know it's coming and can protect yourself or get the hell out of town. Scientists have been working on ways to predict earthquakes for years, with little success. Some say it can't be done. However, some researchers are now claiming that they successful ly predicted the recent California earthquake and an earlier one in Japan. The predictions are not pinpoint predictions, but suggest a magnitude earthquake that is likely in a specific location within the next nine months. Many researchers are skeptical, but others do say that it's unlikely they were correct twice by dumb luck. Of course, the researchers don't want to reveal all their predictions publicly, because they say they don't want to spread fear and economic hardship on certain areas. However, they do plan to work with "the appropriate authorities" (whoever they may be) to continue to test their methodology. In the meantime, they will leak one prediction (in a sparsely populated area): a possible 6.4 magnitude quake in an area south of the Mojave Desert sometime before Sept. 5.

Two volcanoes have recently come to life in Indonesia possibley are the result of acceleration of Earth's pole movements being influenced by highly charged material from interstellar space, which have broken into the interplanetary area of our Solar System. This is not only affecting the magnetic poles, but the ozone content distribution and the increased frequency and magnitude of significant catastrophic climactic and geologic changes.

Also, your dead relatives love you and don't want you to be sad. Today, Midway has shipped Psi-Ops: The Mindgate Conspiracy for PS2 and Xbox. Psi-Ops is a third-person stealth/action game where you play as psychic commando Nick Scryer. Your mission is to go undercover (hint: don't tell anyone your last name) and infiltrate "The Movement", a terrorist organization that usually strikes about fifteen minutes after breakfast and then again late in the evening.

As you can see in the screenshot, you'll have the power to lift things and set them on fire using only the powers of your mind and melodramatic poses. Hopefully Nick will also have to shout "BEHOLD!" to make with the burning and flinging. Nick can also learn to telepathically control enemies, do some remote viewing of inaccessible locations, see auras, and drain brains. You'll also have an array of conventional weapons which you can fire using only the power of your index finger, for when your brain gets tired.

02/10/2004 01:27 PM
IBM and the University of California at Irvine are working on a superc omputer that can predict the planet's climate changes up to 300 years in the future. They claim it's a revolutionary breakthrough in computing, but neglect to mention that part of the reason they're probably working on it is to surpass the power of a Japanese weather predicting computer that made headlines a year and a half ago. I'm sure that it won't be all that long until another supercomputer comes along and beats this one as well.
