The Universe Next Door Part 2 - (Maad Death)

Watching a report on the news about the energy crisis today, you know that feeling you get when the universe goes one way and you go the other well that's how I felt most of today.  What didn't make sense in the report was the fact that Professor Maad was supposedly dead.  As far I know the guy is alive and kicking.

Then I remembered this page on the Janus Archive that talks about the Professor dying of heart failure, but that is on the archive's 'Future' zone but the date is in our past.  Life is just chaos, the question is which reality am I living in today?

How can I possibly move forward when the past, present and future appears to be in flux, obviously something or someone is causing this.  The Black Hats are at it again!  Need to pinpoint their location!  A big red switch mark OFF would be useful right now.

The Universe Next Door Part 1.5

This is just one of the many that have occurred this year:

Hole in the Sky

You got to wonder what the hell is going on with our universe, are we becoming holy?

The Universe Next Door Part 1

You know somtimes I'm not entirely sure which universe I am living in these days.  Watching the news yesterday and there was a report about the march of the '3 faiths' demostrating against a religon purporting that is only one true God.  It was quite wierd at the first the news was speaking about that absolutely terrible shooting at a Jewish school and then with no break they talking about this march.  I mean what are the '3 faiths' they are talking on about?  This new religon can only be Christianity but they also mentioned that a newly incorporated company called '729' is supporting the new religon in a big way financially.  Right at the end of the broadcast they said something else really wierd:

"May Tyche walk beside us all."

A quick look shows "Tyche" to be somewhat sort of Ancient Greek Godness of Luck, I suppose this another version of saying 'Good luck'.  Curiously one of my sources recently ended his email with a similar saying: 'May Tyche walk beside you'  I didn't pursue it at the time because I thought it probably some new fad but I am beginning to wonder why this saying has recently creeped into our lexicon.

I cannot find anything on the '3 faiths', however it would appear that there is a new company called '729 Industries'.  You may remember a previous post of my mine where this company didn't exist.  Well they do now, no Internet footprints so far found will continue to look though.

Jupiter & Venus are at it again...

Looks like Jupiter & Venus are at it again just like rabbits, okay so really large rabbits but these planets love to line up.  One of my sources who complains about a sore throat during the full moon, which I suppose is because she gets really paranoid during this time and chain smokes about three packs a day but when the planets get together three packs becomes six because she believes the world will end during one of these line ups.  Why I am telling you this, I just wanted you to know where my next piece of information is coming from.  That being said she always seems to right on the money with a slight margin for error.

These are her words not mine: "There is a place deep underground where a battle was fought between the forces of darkness and light.  The light was cast out some fifty years ago but it has come again, it comes not to destroy.  To make the world anew, those that have been touched by the dark will be cleansed.  The One shall be recovered and Tyche shall walk our path again."

As prophecies go it is pretty exact and what worries me is that the "light" lost back in the early 60's which means we've been living on the wrong side of the tracks for 40 years.

Who is the "One" ?

Ah well it is all anchovy.

Bloomin Attack

One of my sources sent me information of a recent algal bloom that has emerged near Antarctica, he seems to think that the official explanation is bogus and a complete cover up for what is really going on.  The official reason is that the snow blown into the sea is heavy in iron which is a nutrient to the algal, as explanations go I've got to admit my source has a point.

Unfortunately his explanation is a little bit out there, however I will state it for the record.  He believes that an interdimensional portal has opened up off the coast of Antarctica letting in the alien algal.  Effectively this is the first stage of an alien attack, I can only assume that the algal is some form of terraforming.  He lines up this attack with the cover up in Canada that I posted about regarding the missing chickens.

Are these perhaps the chickens converted into a biomass algal?  Perhaps it tastes like chicken.

Apparently Antarctica is a known 'soft spot' for dimensional breakthroughs.

Janus God of Doors

Having looked further in the Janus Archive I have some observations to make.

The data contained within the past zone does appear to have less information than found in the present and future zones.  This makes sense since mankind's ability to record events has greatly improved as you get closer to the present.  We are so more connected now than we were back in 3500 B.C. where the only form of recording events was making a carving on a stone and nobody seemed to care about punctuation back then either.  The first password protected zip file makes this point clearly containing only a couple of lines of text.  I think it is more of a hint of what is to come.  I can see where someone would feel cheated by all the hard work to get the zip open but as it says on the entry page its all about the journey.  I believe that it is just a small aspect of the larger design.

Overall the zones themselves do not appear to have been created in a vacuum, for instance the past and present zones are connected via their gateways.  The 'Entry' page makes this clear with the following text:

• The future was once the past.
• The past is a gateway into the present and present is gateway into the past

There is also what appears to be a simple picture puzzle.  The page names show an encoded ROT, names of planets in the solar system, which suggests that there are nine zones in total (Pluto is a planet and I don't care what anybody says).  That makes 729 pages total,  the placement of the data within each zone seems oddly random.  What would be the best method of randomly placed items other than an random number generator?!?

The keys for each zone, why have a key checker?  Are these keys used something other than restoring backups?  Is what is contained within the zips really important or are they an easy method for checking that you've got the correct keys or both?

The present zone keys what an interesting method of saving your keys, put them inside a MUD.  Not a very social character that Baron Kalan.  The ROT'd extra text stored on the images appears to be ROT-18 which comes out as:

1, Long: bullet? That dog don't hunt
2, One car 4 in 1 out
3, Sneezing is bad for your health

I use the following site for all ROT codes: http://www.mobilefish.com/services/rot13/rot13.php

I believe I mentioned a certain film remake in a previous post which shows there is some synchronicity in play here, that's the universe for you.  I will not bother giving you the obvious answer, the contents of the zip are quite interesting indeed and proves there is more information in the present than the past.

Looking at the future zone again, I suspect the codes on the ID3 tags are some form of book code since there are nine books in the zone.  Does 'Begin' mean beginning? I suspect only three of the books are used the rest are red herrings.

Lastly the the following page ja63q0gw is the zone exit in the past zone, there is a hidden link on  the images at the bottom.

For anyone who loves puzzles I would say that this is a goldmine and the content tantalizes at the possibility of huge conspiracy going back to earliest times.

Janus Archive

What a weird site you've shown me, some sort of historical archive with God knows how many layers of puzzles/codes in it.  Quite interesting indeed, I shall look into this site further.

I thought I'd have a look at the ID3 tags for you, here is what I found.  There are only three pages with the sof.mp3 file which appear to have tags attached, I haven't had a chance to listen to the files yet:

ja1601h1078sh
Ja1101x547sh
Ja1005q499su

The following tags are:

• Begin, 2,4/3,4/6,2/3,5
• Begin, 3,1/2,3/5,5/8,3/7,2/2,1
• Begin, 1,1/4,2/6,5/1,1/6,4/7,1/8,2/4,4

I think the slash is maybe a letter break if it is a code, not sure what the 'Begin' represents though.

Piracy Part 2 – Control

The problem is big businesses and governments do not see how stupid most of their actions are, they never consider what their actions will have on the future. The reason is that they only look about five years down the line or to the next election.

Once you ban something or make it illegal it becomes a thing the public want, a forbidden fruit and we so love our apples. Take the prohibition era of the 1920s, American was in deep depression so what does the government do to help with the problems they make the selling of alcohol illegal. In small quantities alcohol gives you: Mild euphoria, sociability, talkitiveness, Increased self-confidence; decreased inhibitions. Good things when living in a depression I would think, obviously too much alcohol is bad for you but people learn this when they are young and stupid.

This ban was sheer stupidity you took away something that the people liked which left them even more depressed. Similarly the music and film industries are effectively cutting their own throats with their attempt to reclaim this pitiful percentage, they are giving governments excuses to control the flow of information on the Internet. It is always be about control!

I've been asked on my previous post how you download mp3 files without QuickTime Pro.  First off you can easily save the file by right-clicking it and doing 'Save Link As', then you can save it to your PC.  If you have limited yourself to an Apple MAC then I do not know what free apps are available for reading MP3s.  However if you are using Windows then you can use Winamp which in my opinion is the best free MP3 player ever, when you've opened the MP3 on Winamp if you then do 'Alt-3' it will open the ID3 tags for you.  Still having problems post another comment.

Piracy Part 1 - Digital Age

When I was about six or seven my brother and I use to listen to the Top 40 on the radio and we would record it on tape so we could enjoy later. This was in the middle seventies and back then copyright law stated that you could copy content off the radio as you didn't reproduce it and sell it on making a profit. The music industry even back then would have you believe that we were all thieves, of course that would mean everyone who ever owned a tape deck recorder was a thief. The industry have themselves to blame they sold us the tape recorders, VHS recorders, CD writers, DVD writers, USB sticks.

Back then of course the quantity of the content was far lower and for the most part is was purely analogue. You had tape and vinyl, so our ability to share content was limited. Everybody whoever loved music will have at some point in their lives made a tape of their favourite music and passed it on to a friend who loves the same music. This is earliest form of peer to peer sharing.

Then came the digital age and what really kicked it into high gear was the coming of the MP3 file format. It allows you to convert your huge WAV music files down to very small files, it gave you in certain cases a ten to one compression of data. One minute of music recorded in a WAV format would take about ten megabytes whereas MP3 format would be about one megabytes.

Before MP3 players the biggest selling portable player was the Sony Walkman which played tapes and for its size was actually quite small but it was still analogue. The digital age made the Walkman obsolete. One really useful thing about MP3 files is that you can easily add and edit track, artist, album and comments data using free software like Winamp, gone are days of pieces of paper with your tracks hand written on them. MP3 players will read the ID3 tag data and display it for you.

I have somewhat digressed from the point I am trying to make and that is in the digital age the quantity of content has increased exponentially so and our ability to share.

The music industry made an estimated thirty to forty billion dollars in 2004, the film industry averaged from cinema ticket sales alone a whopping ten billion for the last three years. Both industries have stated that they lose about 1.5 percent in piracy. They state that this is based upon single downloads from peer to peer sharing sites, they also state that this piracy will collapse the industries. A somewhat grandiose and stupid claim if you ask me.

Now of course some of these profits will go back into the industries as an investments but where is the rest going? They will spending money on lobbying the different countries round the world to put in place Nazi style restrictions upon peer to peer networking sites and then eventually the Internet will become the police state that was fictionalized by George Orwell in his book 1984.

And this is to recover that 1.5 percent! Greed really doesn't cover it!

Most people download films and music purely because they want to watch/listen to them first before they buy it. Effectively peer to peer sites are the biggest form of free advertising that these industries will ever get. 1.5 percent is didley over squat for this type of advertising.

If I download a film, burnt it to DVD and then made copies of the DVD and sold it as new on eBay or the town market. That is true piracy and people that do that are stealing, they have crossed the line of sharing. These are the true pirates!

PS. I hear they making a remake of The Taking of Pelham 1,2,3.  You cannot improve upon the original with  Walter Matthau and the character 'Harold Longman' was brilliant to a tea. I mean to almost make it but be ruined by a simple sneeze.

Ski Cover Up with Chickens

Had a tip from an old north American source that there is currently a cover up in progress as I write this in a remote ski resort somewhere near the Canadian and Alaskan borders.  Apparently there have been number of UFO sightings in and around the area although according to my source they've mostly been just bright lights in the sky so read into that what you like.  My source says there was a weird aurora borealis during this time as well though how you define a weird northern lights I really don't know, something about how it wasn't in the sky so much as draped across the mountains reaching all the way to the ground.

She goes onto say  that a chicken farmer in the area has reported that all his chickens suddenly vanished from his barn and all that was left was black soot.  How you rear chickens in winter is beyond me, sounds more like an insurance scam.

Maybe aliens like fried chicken.
