<blockquote><p>This image is meant to be spread around to engineers, television stattions, politicians, or to anyone who might be able to use it to help in stopping this leak from continuing.</p></blockquote>
<p>My aim is for this to be passed on to CNN, BP, Fox News, BBC News and any other news network which might expose this to someone who can help.</p>
<p>This device is created to be inserted into a high pressure hole with little resistance. I don&#8217;t know if this will be the right answer or if it will surely work,  but I attempted to design a diagram illustrating the effect of plugging  up the leak(s) in the Gulf of Mexico.</p>
<p>If the opening is equal in diameter, the sides would then be bent inward to create a smaller opening.</p>
<p>The device would then have cones which would open at the same time, and use the force of the ocean to push the opposing cone against the smaller opening.</p>
<p>Once the leak is plugged, it could then be more easily sealed and blocked off permanently.</p>
<p>This could function well if there are many holes, and at varying sizes in diameter as the design and cone shape is scalable.</p>
<p>If you find this useful, please pass it on to the appropriate think tanks or to BP themselves</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignleft" style="margin:6px;" src="http://i28.photobucket.com/albums/c222/stuckinasuitcase/astroblogos/1000/21012.jpg" alt="" width="240" height="200" /><a href="http://www.spike.com/">Spike TV</a> has unveiled a new series bluntly named <em><a href="http://www.spike.com/show/27237">1000 Ways To Die</a>, </em>showing a couple ways every week ranging from the quick and dirty to the silent but deadly.  As graphic as it is, this show pulls my morbidly curious Saturn-Mars conjunction in Scorpio to see what happens, and the fact that each different way to die is preceded by a time, place and person &#8211; perfect for the execution of a fateful transit.</p>
<p>The show does not put them into any specific order, so the numbers will be random, it appears as if Spike plans to air all 1000 ways to die.  The evening I first caught this show, I witnessed <strong><em><span style="color:#ff0000;">Way to Die #629&#8230; &#8220;Sex Ray&#8221;</span></em></strong></p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><img class="aligncenter" src="http://i28.photobucket.com/albums/c222/stuckinasuitcase/astroblogos/1000/skull_tiny.gif" alt="" width="50" height="50" /></p>
<h2 style="text-align:center;"><span style="font-weight:normal;"><span style="color:#ffffff;"> </span><strong><span style="color:#ffffff;">WARNING:</span></strong></span></h2>
<p> </p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><span style="color:#ff0000;">The content displayed here is very graphic and must not be attempted by anyone.  If you try anything you see here, <strong>Y</strong><strong>OU WILL DIE</strong></span></p>
<p style="text-align:center;">Once the torrent is done, I&#8217;ll put up the charts and examine to see if there is a relationship between the dates, events and the transits &#8211; Like a deathly Horary question asking <em>&#8220;How Will I Die?&#8221;  Here is a snippet of one of these episodes:</em></p>

<p style="text-align:left;"><a href="http://apod.nasa.gov/apod/ap081125.html">APOD&#8217;s November 25th</a> posting features a &#8216;desk-sized&#8217; meteor which fell to earth over western Canada, illuminating Alberta and British Columbia skies late in the evening of November 20th.</p>
<p style="text-align:left;">This police dashboard camera captures the meteor in its final moments.  Astronomers hope to attempt to triangulate its position to both determine its impact site, and also discover its origin.  The heavy gravitational field of Mars and Jupiter conventionally pull most all meteors, compets and asteroids away from the earth&#8217;s orbit, but on rare occasions, foreign bodies land on our planet.</p>
<p style="text-align:left;">It is speculated that lake Huron (and possibly the wide spread of lakes spanning Canada&#8217;s provinces and territories) could have been created by an earth-killer, explaining why there are so many rare and precious metals and rocks surrounding the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canadian_Shield">Great Canadian Shield</a>.</p>

<p style="text-align:left;">
<p style="text-align:left;"><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Precession">Precession </a>moves the tropical-seasonal zodiac by the vernal <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equinox">equinox</a>, but the slow movement of precession is guilty of slowly shifting this equinox point of 0 degrees Aries at march 20th away from the Sidereal-fixed star zodiac by 1 degree every 72 years.  Multiply that out by about 26,000 years and that is how long it would take for the two beginning points on the zodiac to return the same position.</p>
<p style="text-align:left;">
<p style="text-align:left;">As of now, the two zodiacs are approximately 24 degrees apart &#8211; making this venus/jupiter conjunction tropically occur at 20 degrees Capricorn, and Sidereally (astronomically) at 16 degrees Sagittarius.</p>
<p style="text-align:left;">
<p style="text-align:left;"><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Analemma"><img class="alignleft" src="http://i28.photobucket.com/albums/c222/stuckinasuitcase/astroblogos/350px-Analemma_Earth.png" alt="" width="224" height="168" /></a>Both Zodiacs are equally as valid, as astrologers use both tropical and sidereal, but astronomers use the argument that the tropical zodiac is invalid due to it&#8217;s movement away from the astronomical fixed point.  The yearly cycle of the Sun&#8217;s movement throughout the seasons creating zeniths and nadirs in daylight and 4 very distinguishable seasons along with a traceable <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Analemma">analemma</a>.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align:left;"><img class="aligncenter" title="Stephen Colbert - Defender of Satire" src="http://i28.photobucket.com/albums/c222/stuckinasuitcase/astroblogos/colbert-lockwood.jpg" alt="" width="400" height="300" />Although born centuries apart, these two men carry a karmic tie, not limited to merely their Irish heritage, but from society&#8217;s continued attraction toward their comedic approach to the problems facing the middle-class.</p>
<p><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jonathan_swift">Jonathan Swift</a>, born in Dublin, Ireland, and <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stephen_Colbert">Stephen Colbert</a>, born in Washington DC, are both known as some of the most profound satirists in history.  Swift&#8217;s mark in history stemmed from his essay <em><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_modest_proposal">A Modest Proposal: For Preventing the Children of Poor People in Ireland from Being a Burden to Their Parents or Country, and for Making Them Beneficial to the Public,</a> </em>more commonly known simply as <em>A Modest Proposal. </em></p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><img class="aligncenter" src="http://i28.photobucket.com/albums/c222/stuckinasuitcase/astroblogos/swift_modest_proposal1.jpg" alt="" width="298" height="514" /></p>
<p>Colbert has taken the shift in media to make a nightly show skewering and poking fun at politicians and pop culture issues.</p>
<div class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 426px"><a href="http://i28.photobucket.com/albums/c222/stuckinasuitcase/astroblogos/astro_61gw_04_03_jonathan_swift_ste.gif"><img title="Synastry Chart of Stephen Colbert (Red) &amp; Jonathan Swift (blue) - no birthtimes" src="http://i28.photobucket.com/albums/c222/stuckinasuitcase/astroblogos/astro_61gw_04_03_jonathan_swift_ste.gif" alt="" width="416" height="466" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Synastry Chart of Stephen Colbert (Red) &amp; Jonathan Swift (blue) -no birth times</p></div>
<p>The one commonality between them both is their Gemini Moons.  Jonathan Swift&#8217;s Gemini Moon <span style="color:#3366ff;">(blue wheel)</span> is conjunct the north node and points towards a very active opposing Mercury in Sagittarius tied to a Sun/Venus conjunction, highlighting Swift as one of the world&#8217;s greatest prose satirists.  Colbert&#8217;s Moon <span style="color:#ff0000;">(red wheel)</span> is opposite alluring Lilith, drawing crowds of devoted fans on a nightly basis, naming him Captain America (amongst many of his titles), alluding to his Pluto in Virgo.</p>

<p><a href="null"><img class="alignleft" title="Saturn Return" src="http://i28.photobucket.com/albums/c222/stuckinasuitcase/astroblogos/pink12.jpg" alt="" width="311" height="422" /></a></p>
<p> From the <a href="http://www.metronews.ca/toronto/entertainment/article/131947">Metro News</a> in Toronto today:</p>
<p>Pink (<a title="Pink (Singer) on Wikipedia" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pink_(musician)">born September 8, 1979</a>) is waiting for her birthday next year to seek clarity in her own life, and she has speculated that this will come about via her <a href="http://http://astroblogos.wordpress.com/2008/07/24/a-tribute-to-an-immaculate-performance/">Saturn Return</a>. Your Saturn return is the same as your birthday, but instead of being the time when the Sun comes back to where it was when you were born, Saturn&#8217;s orbit takes 28-30 years, so this will mark Pink&#8217;s first &#8216;Saturn Birthday&#8217;.</p>
<p>It is not often that we see celebrities openly using practical astrology, especially in the media, as the Saturn birthday is as much of an important stepping stone in life as ones own regular birthday.  Solar returns give much insight into the year to come, but the Saturn returns launches you over the threshold to adulthood, from where you meet the limits of time, maturity and death.</p>
<p>It is commonly accepted that one does not reach adulthood until the age of 30, and Saturn signifies maturity, structure, and limits &#8211; a threshold once passed, adults must face these turning points of life, or be doomed to repeat the lessons first met at 28 years at the second Saturn Return.  This usually occurs around ones mid-life crisis. <a href="http://www.astrology.co.uk/LizG.htm">Liz Greene</a> is one of the most knowledgeable authors on the topic of Saturn, and has written the book <em><a href="http://www.amazon.com/Saturn-New-Look-Old-Devil/dp/0877283060">Saturn: A New Look at an Old Devil</a></em>.  A must read for anyone approaching or mystified by this event.</p>
<p>28-30 is the coming of age in the astrological world, and there is no better planet which teaches us this lesson than Saturn.  Pink&#8217;s Saturn is amidst a huge Virgo stellium</p>

<p> </p>
<p>Exactly squaring her natal Neptune at 17° Sagittarius (currently her Neptune is being squared by transitting rebellious and disrupting Uranus in Pisces).  So we may see a more mature, sophisticated and potentially reserved Pink come next year.  Uranus in Pisces is not only squaring Neptune, but it is also opposing that entire Virgo stellium, looking directly at her Saturn and challenging it.  Pink may face many problems in the following year concerning Virgonian (mercury-ruled sorting, cleaning, nutrition, cleanliness, education, legal matters, business) and Piscean (jupiter-ruled belief, knowledge) and her stellium will only complicate matters further.  There may be some more rebellion against the musical status quo, but once Pink has completed the reuturn, which will probably en once Saturn leaves Virgo for Libra &#8211; if Pink is prepared, she will surely change her outlook and perspective at this juncture and reap Saturn&#8217;s rewards.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Lange-MigrantMother02.jpg"><img class="alignleft" style="margin:3px 6px;" title="Lange-Migrant Mother" src="http://i28.photobucket.com/albums/c222/stuckinasuitcase/astroblogos/461px-Lange-MigrantMother02.jpg" alt="" width="232" height="302" /></a>Yes, October 29th marked the 79th anniversary of the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great_depression">Great Depression</a>!</p>
<p> </p>
<p>And what better way to mark it?  Than with an 8th house profection year, yes that&#8217;s right- the profection year of things that are buried under the ground, other people&#8217;s money and TAXES.  Yes, the <a href="http://i28.photobucket.com/albums/c222/stuckinasuitcase/IS-201/Fig15Places.jpg">8th house, the &#8216;idle&#8217; p</a><a href="http://i28.photobucket.com/albums/c222/stuckinasuitcase/IS-201/Fig15Places.jpg">lace, the place of death</a>.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>What ascendant would mark the occasion?  We don&#8217;t know.  If I was banking on the eve of October 29th when the stock market closed for the day, 5pm would grant a Taurean rising sign, putting none other than the king of time and death natally in the 8th, but also marking the birthday in Sagittarius, further amplifying his position at the 26th degree with a Pluto conjunction of all things.</p>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<div class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 392px"><a href="http://i28.photobucket.com/albums/c222/stuckinasuitcase/astroblogos/astro_24gw_02_the_great_depressi-1.gif"><img class="     " title="00pm New York, NY" src="http://i28.photobucket.com/albums/c222/stuckinasuitcase/astroblogos/astro_24gw_02_the_great_depressi-1.gif" alt="00pm New York, NY" width="382" height="565" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">The Great Depression October 29, 1929 5:00pm New York, NY</p></div>
<p> </p>
<p>The birthday today, especially marks the occasion of a Jupiter-ruled year, with Saturn natally in Sagittarius, and Jupiter transitting through a Saturn-ruled sign, in aversion to Saturn!  How saturnian!  The Mercury return and Mars return are extra bonuses in this chart &#8211; Mercury signifying trade and legal matters, and Mars representing that which we are cut off from, the act of being severed, a change.  Well played planets.  Happy Birthday Great Depression.  Let&#8217;s hope in another 79 years, you have passed your prime.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Budweiser created one of history&#8217;s most memorable commericals in <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Whassup%3F">1999</a>, forever iconizing the American Dream of beer, football, and spending time with friends.</p>
<p> </p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><span style="text-align:center; display: block;"><a href="http://astroblogos.wordpress.com/2008/10/28/whasssap-budweiser-ad-makes-a-comeback-in-sagittarius-for-obama/"><img src="http://img.youtube.com/vi/tauYnVE6ykU/2.jpg" alt="" /></a></span></p>
<p style="text-align:center;"> </p>
<p style="text-align:center;">In lieu of current politics almost ten years later, Venus crossed over the budweiser commerical&#8217;s natal Pluto in their birth chart, and Pluto made a conjunction to their natal Sagittarius Sun, on top of Mars transiting over their natal Venus in Scorpio, all reflecting the comeback in interest towards a group of friends (Sagittarius Sun in 5th house) with interest from friends (transiting panets in 5th house &#8211; more matters pertaining to friends and fun stuff)</p>
<p style="text-align:center;">-football, friendship &amp; beer are represented in the 7th house with Neptune transiting over mars (neptune is alcohol, mars is the &#8216;brothers&#8217;, the 7th house is them being each other&#8217;s partner in this event)</p>
<p style="text-align:center;">- the dark part of the allure to this commercial&#8217;s chart transits is that Pluto has wreaked havoc on each of the characters in the ad, each individual suffering from problems relating to the last 8 years [of government].</p>
<p style="text-align:center;"> </p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><a href="http://i28.photobucket.com/albums/c222/stuckinasuitcase/astroblogos/astro_24gw_01_budweiser_whassup__ad.gif"><img class="aligncenter" title="Busweiser Ad 1999 with Transits for today" src="http://i28.photobucket.com/albums/c222/stuckinasuitcase/astroblogos/astro_24gw_01_budweiser_whassup__ad.gif" alt="" width="449" height="661" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align:center;"> </p>
<p style="text-align:center;">What makes this commercial special is the reflection of time, and the change of events stemming from post-1999 season up to now.  The commercial has a good chart for drawing the attention of friends and &#8216;good times&#8217; in general, but the transits of this commercial explicate a deeper message of global change and re-examination of personal, and communal values.</p>
<p style="text-align:center;"> </p>
<p style="text-align:center;">Now enjoy the <strong>new</strong> WHASSSAP Budweiser Ad!</p>
