Time Space Vortex

 

There really is a time space vortex! Einstein predicted, in his theory of gravity and his theory of relativity, that there should be a time space vortex around the earth, and in 2004, NASA sent a satellite called Gravity Probe B (GP-B) in orbit around the earth to test the theories. Using a star as a focal point and keeping the earth's magnetic field from affecting the spacecraft, a geodetic precession of 6,600 plus or minus 0.017 arcseconds and a frame dragging effect of 0.039 plus or minus 0.007 arcseconds was measured around the earth, just as Einstein had predicted. The data took a year to collect, and another five years to interpret. A validation such as this is only the beginning of new discoveries and new technology, of course; yet it probably at least partially explains why we do not experience everything at the same time!


 

Missing Children Still Need To Be More Important

I came across this video on Facebook this morning. It seems that someone has finally given law enforcement a believable account and confession about what happened to Etan Patz on May 25, 1979. In the years since little Etan disappeared, technology has made missing children and adults easier to find, and law enforcement has been given different protocals to follow. Picture recognition, such as those ancient "milk carton" photos, now replaced with pictures in the entrances of Walmart stores, have helped bring home at least ten percent of missing children. But nothing replaces watchful parents and guardians, safe schools and other institutions that deal with children, and an observant public. This is a short video, but very infomative......there is even a clip of an artist working on an age progressed image of Kyron Horman. I hope the artist takes into account all the different ways Kyron might look with longer hair. I hope everyone will watch this video.

A Picture Is Worth A Thousand Words

Several days ago, someone I know made a video of Kyron Horman, who has been lost since June of 2010. He went missing at Skyline Elementary, in Portland, Oregon. I posted the video on this site, hoping it would help someone, somewhere to recognize Kyron and bring him home. The creator of the video got lots and lots of praise and positive feedback on it. Some of that positive feedback was from yours truly, and I continue to laud his efforts, because he is talented, creative, and imaginative, and puts his talents to good use. Unfortunately, he also got some disturbing feedback on the video, so he decided to take it down. I was sorry to see that happen. I am also sorry to see Kyron still missing, every time I look at the news from his part of the country.

It's been said that a picture is worth a thousand words. According to the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children, at least one in six missing children are recovered through some form of photo distribution. That's a significant amount. That's an awful lot of missing kids who would not be found if not for photos of them posted on the internet, and in other places. Age progression is another valuable tool. In my opinion, the technology and practical application of same is still too new for what I would call accurate statistics, but let me remind everyone that many criminals have been apprehended thanx to the circulation of age progressed photos. Subtle changes in growth, hairstyle, glasses, dental changes (teeth growing in) can make a huge difference in a child's appearance. Jaycee Dugard and Shawn Hornbeck's age progressions were remarkably similar to the real Jaycee Dugard and Shawn Hornbeck. Keeping up with any possible changes in a missing child's appearance is also important enough for the NCMEC to age progress every photo they post of a person under fifteen years old every two years. In cases of missing persons over fifteen years old, they age progress their photos every five years.

I want to encourage everyone to continue to look for Kyron Horman, and remember how much a child can grow in eighteen months. And to Jonathan, thankyou again.
