The US Naval Observatory site for sun and moon data http://aa.usno.navy.mil/data/docs/RS_OneYear.html has been shut down. I tried to access it today, July 3, and it came back and said: 'You are not authorized to view this page.

Independent Digital Ltd, 03 July 2003 http://news.independent.co.uk/world/environment/story.jsp?story=421166 The World Meteorological Organisation signalled last night that the world's weather is going haywire. ... extremes in weather and climate occurring all over the world in recent weeks ... The unprecedented warning takes its force and significance ... from an impeccably respected UN organisation that is not given to hyperbole. ... the world needs to be made aware of it immediately. The extreme weather it documents, such as record high and low temperatures, record rainfall and record storms in different parts of the world ... While the trend towards warmer temperatures has been uneven over the past century, the trend since 1976 is roughly three times that for the whole period. ... It is possible that 2003 will be the hottest year ever recorded.

On the Denver news tonight [July 2] there was something I have never seen before, a report on a crop circle by the conventional media. They only gave it a 20-second spot and the usual reports (farmer blames vandals, but neighbors did not see or hear anyone). It looks like someone is losing control of the media. [and from another email] I meant to tell you yesterday that the Santorini camera made it through the entire sunset sequence without any time delays. First time this has happened for awhile now. [and from another email] Now what is up with SOHO? They tell us that everything is down for 20 days but then they put the Lasco C3 images back into operation beginning yesterday.

The red dust in Florida is coming in now more so then before. When I took the Moon shot tonight [July 2] I noticed the clouds are very reddish now after sunset. There is also a large dark cloud that has been hanging over the western horizon after sunset the past 3 days. There was a tremendous red halo surrounding the Moon tonight as well. [and later] The red dust is coming in thick here on the West Coast of Florida. Tonight [July 3] the dust is even thicker then last night and is beginning to settle on the cars here. Every Cloud in the sky is red just after sunset. The planet must be moving at great speed now. I wonder how long before the media and the common folk pick up on this? [and from another email] For the last few weeks, I've been watching the sunsets [July 3] here in north Missouri. I have never seen them redder in my entire life. [and from another email] This picture of Red Skies is taken from a webcam [July 4, Noon] in Fraena in the north west of Norway.

I am a farmer in Illinois. Many of my friends have been commenting on how unusually bright the sun has been this summer [July 1]. I have noticed this as well. Despite a relatively cool growing season so far, our crops are well advanced for this time of year. This photo of last evening's Sunset is unusual because it is never this bright at sunset. [and from another email] The cherry crop matured about two weeks early here in Northern Utah [July 3] and then suddenly after a big rain last week they began to burst. Farmers have never seen anything like this. Something is definitely happening.

The Zetas predicted media slips. Tonight within an hour of major TV news, I saw Planet X twice. In a photo taken at Baylor University, a huge red ball was clearly visible in the background. The second photo included the Sun and Planet X. [and from another email] I was watching the DBacks play last night [July 1] (on TV) in Colorado and the camera focused in on an amazing red to blood red sunset. [and from another email] Our in-ground pool is filtered using copper and silver electrodes (the usual). Swimming season starts with water shocked by Chlorine, then a weekly dose to maintain cleanliness. This year, a severe case of algae, so we added algeacide. More algae growing. Definite signs of an increas of UV rays, hotter sun, etc. We live in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada.
