The Fear Frequency

Have you ever wondered what a ghost sounds like? Engineer Vic Tandy may already know. In the early 1980s, Tandy was working in a laboratory designing medical equipment. Word began to spread among the staff that the labs might be haunted, something Tandy put down to the constant wheeze of life-support machines operating in the building.

Vic Tandy

One evening he was working on his own in the lab when he began to feel distinctly uncomfortable, breaking into a cold sweat as the hairs on the back of his neck stood on end. He was convinced that he was being watched. Then, out of the corner of his eye, Tandy noticed an ominous grey shape drifting slowly into view, but when he turned around to face it, it was gone. Terrified, he went straight home.

The next day Tandy, a keen fencer, noticed that a foil blade clamped in a vice was vibrating up and down very fast. He found that the vibrations were caused by a standing sound wave that was bouncing between the end walls of the laboratory and reached a peak of intensity in the center of the room. He calculated that the frequency of the standing wave was about 19hz (cycles per second) and soon discovered that it was produced by a newly installed extractor fan. When the fan was turned off, the sound wave disappeared.

The key here is frequency: 19hz is in the range known as infrasound, below the range of human hearing, which begins at 20hz. Tandy learned that low frequencies in this region can affect humans and animals in several ways, causing discomfort, dizziness, blurred vision (by vibrating your eyeballs), hyperventilation and fear, possibly leading to panic attacks.

Tandy went on to recreate his experience, and with the assistance of Dr. Tony Lawrence, he was able to publish his findings in the Journal of the Society for Psychical Research. Their research led them to conclude that infrasound at or around a frequency of 19 Hz, has a range of physiological effects, including feelings of fear and shivering. Though this had been known for many years, Tandy and Lawrence were the first people to link it to ghostly sightings. Tandy also appeared in the “Ghosts on the London Underground” documentary.

In 2001 Tandy was asked to investigate the cellar of Coventry’s Tourist Information Centre and in 2004 he was part of a research group looking for paranormal activity in Warwick Castle. In both cases he found high levels of infrasound present. Tandy also conducted large-scaled experiments including one experiment on 750 participants at London’s Royal Festival Hall.

Coventry, Warwickshire, England

A more recent investigation took place in an allegedly haunted 14th-century pub cellar in Coventry, where people have reported terrifying experiences for many years, including seeing a spectral grey lady. Here Tandy also uncovered a 19hz standing wave, adding further evidential weight to his theory. The following is a generic pic from the web – I don’t know which pub he examined.

Built around 1583, The Golden Cross claims to be the oldest pub in the city and one of the longest-established alcohol-serving venues in England. There’s been a lot of bumps in the night over the years and reports of strange activity in the kitchen area. It is thought that the kitchen stands where there were once cells keeping prisoners locked away. There have also been sightings of shadowy figures appearing in the pub and it has received a Most Haunted Location award.

In an interesting parallel, researchers have recorded that, prior to an attack, a tiger’s roar contains frequencies of about 18hz, which might disorientate and paralyze their intended victim. Is this the sound of fear itself?

    The January 6th committee hired former ABC News President James Goldston.

    They hired them to make their hearings “TV-friendly.”

    A) Fox has confirmed that the committee investigating last year’s riot at the Capitol has hired former ABC News President James Goldston to “produce” the slate of hearings scheduled for this month. Fox is told Goldston will have a hand in all of the hearings this month.

    C) However, the committee will intersperse various portions of taped depositions, new audio/videotape and never-before-seen footage from inside the Capitol on the day of the riot.

    — Chad Pergram (@ChadPergram) June 6, 2022

    According to a group of House Republicans this may have violated House rules.

    From The Epoch Times:

    A group of House Republicans on Wednesday requested confirmation that the former president of ABC News, James Goldston, is working for the committee investigating the Jan. 6, 2021 breach of the U.S. Capitol, and questioned whether his alleged hiring violated House rules.

    In a letter (pdf) to the Jan. 6 Committee Chairman Rep. Bennie Thompson (D-Miss.) and Committee on House Administration Chairperson Rep. Zoe Lofgren (D-Calif.), GOP lawmakers asked for confirmation that Goldston has been hired as an employee of the committee, and not as a consultant or in an “unofficial capacity.”

    Citing congressional laws pertaining to committee staff, the lawmakers noted that a letter is required requesting approval of the Committee on House Administration regarding Goldston’s hiring, along with a signed contract agreement and resume.

    Under that same law, Goldston would be unable to commence work for the committee until the contract has been approved by the Committee on House Administration.

  2. Entire Article: “Either the Democrat/Deep State/Media cabal thinks we’re stupid, or many of us really are. Or both. It’s probably both. On the day the January 6 Unselect Committee is poised to have their prime time televised gaslighting hearing, the FBI engaged in a promotional marketing piece by arresting Republican gubernatorial candidate Ryan Kelly.

    According to Axios:

    “The FBI arrested Ryan Kelley, a Republican candidate for Michigan governor, on Thursday after serving out a search warrant on his home in Allendale, an FBI spokesperson confirmed to Axios. Kelley was arrested on misdemeanor charges stemming from the Jan. 6 Capitol riot, Bill Miller, a spokesperson for the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the District of Columbia, said in a statement Thursday. He is one of five candidates who qualified for the Republican primary to be held in August.

    “Ryan Kelley, 40, of Allendale, Michigan, was arrested this morning on misdemeanor charges stemming from the Jan. 6, 2021 Capitol breach,” Miller said. “He was arrested in Allendale. Mr. Kelley is to make his initial appearance this afternoon in the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Michigan.”

    “A complaint is merely an allegation, and all defendants are presumed innocent until proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt in a court of law,” Miller added. Kelley was charged on Thursday with knowingly entering or remaining in a restricted building or grounds without lawful authority during the riot, as well as disorderly and disruptive conduct in a restricted building or grounds.’

    It has been 519 days since January 6, 2021. For the FBI to pick TODAY, the day the prime time gaslighting special is happening, to arrest a Republican candidate over J6 charges tells us their job is to do marketing for Democrats. I talked more about it on today’s episode of America First Report.”

  4. american companies suing over Ultra Maggot’s solar panel eo…
    FTA
    But the move is already backfiring and American companies are suing. From AP:

    U.S. solar manufacturers say they are considering legal challenges after President Joe Biden declared a two-year pause for tariffs on solar imports from Southeast Asia.

    Biden also invoked the Defense Production Act on Monday as the White House moved to jumpstart solar installations that have been slowed or abandoned amid a Commerce Department inquiry into possible trade violations involving Chinese products.

    The White House said Biden’s actions would boost an industry crucial to his climate change-fighting goals while not interfering with or shutting down the Commerce investigation.

    But some domestic producers, including a California company that filed a complaint with Commerce about unfair competition from Chinese imports, said Biden’s actions would help China’s state-subsidized solar companies at the expense of U.S. manufacturers.

  5. a HUGE flaw in mcconaughey’s (sp?) plan for gun control…
    FTA
    The biggest problem facing the country right now is a two-tiered justice system, in which friends of the regime are protected and allowed to commit crimes with impunity, and political opponents of the regime face life imprisonment for lesser crimes.

    Who would administer, for example, the background checks and red flag laws that “common sense” gun restricters propose? Would it be the same government that fabricated evidence in a FISA Court proceeding to secure a wiretap to spy on Carter Page for the crime of supporting a politician the FBI opposed?

    Would it be the same FBI that hatched a plot to kidnap the Michigan governor, with that truth only coming out during the prosecution of four of the Americans entrapped in the scheme?

    Would it be the same government that besieged and burned down a building full of women and children in 1993 in Waco, Texas? Would it be the same government that told the world that there were weapons of mass destruction in Iraq and that was why we needed to start a lengthy war there?

    Would it be the same local, state, and federal officials who allowed Antifa and Black Lives Matter activists to destroy countless homes and businesses in dozens of cities, set White House buildings on fire, attack federal courthouses, burn police precincts to the ground, destroy historical markers, and commit other destruction under the guise of “mostly peaceful” protesting?

    And which police organizations and officials would be involved in these “common sense” gun restrictions? Would it be men such as Derek Chauvin, convicted of murdering George Floyd?

    Would it be the same police department in Uvalde, Texas, that stood by while children were being murdered and, instead of stopping it, prevented parents from rescuing children?

  6. Entire Article: “The Commerce of Business has issued a temporary denial order (TDO) for 180 days to three U.S. companies for the illegal export of data relating to satellite, rocket, and defense technology to China. On June 7, the Commerce Department’s Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS) accused three U.S.-based companies of unauthorized export of technical drawings and blueprints used to 3-D print satellite, rocket, and defense-related prototypes to China.

    The three entities are Quicksilver Manufacturing Inc., Rapid Cut LLC, and U.S. Prototype Inc., all located in Wilmington, North Carolina.

    “Outsourcing 3-D printing of space and defense prototypes to China harms U.S. national security,” said Assistant Secretary of Commerce for Export Enforcement Matthew Axelrod in a statement on June 8. “By sending their customers’ technical drawings and blueprints to China, these companies may have saved a few bucks—but they did so at the collective expense of protecting U.S. military technology.”

    According to the statement, TDOs are some of the most significant civil sanctions the BIS can issue. The statement indicated, “Without their customers’ advance consent or knowledge, these drawings were provided to manufacturers in China to 3-D-print the items without the required U.S. Government authorizations.” As stated in the TDO, these three entities use “the same rental mailbox.”

    “The information illegally sent to China included sensitive prototype space and defense technologies,” said the BIS. The statement also encouraged customers of the three entities to “review their records to determine whether intellectual-property or export-controlled technology was provided and/or potentially compromised.” The BIS did not disclose the customers that have contracts with the three entities.

    According to the TDO, the customers include an aerospace and global defense technology company; a manufacturer of specially designed parts intended for a rocket platform’s ground support and test equipment; and an advanced science and engineering company with multiple U.S. government contracts, including with the Department of Defense.”

  7. Entire Article @ NY Post: “A “furious” Prince Harry will likely want “an apology” amid reports he was royally snubbed by Queen Elizabeth II and company at last week’s Platinum Jubilee, according to self-proclaimed royal expert Angela Levin. “I think he would have been very, very upset that he was largely ignored,” the noted Prince Harry and Camilla, Duchess of Cornwall biographer told the Sun. “He still feels he’s owed an apology.”

    Offering her hot take on “self-destructive” Harry’s demeanor at the Service of Thanksgiving at St. Paul’s Cathedral last Friday, the royal analyst said: “The thing that really stood out for me on that day was Harry’s anger — he wears his emotions on his face and he looked absolutely furious.”

    The outspoken Levin — who reportedly spent a year with Harry, 37, while writing his biography — was addressing the international photo controversy that emerged when he and wife Meghan Markle, 40, introduced daughter and namesake Lilibet, 1, to Elizabeth for the first time last Wednesday, after jetting to the UK to partake in the Platinum Jubilee celebrations.

    Multiple outlets claimed that the couple were denied a request to have a photographer take photos of the 96-year-old monarch and their daughter — with one anonymous source claiming they were told, “No chance. It was a private family event,” the Sun originally reported. That same birdie also claimed Elizabeth’s minders were worried that Harry and Markle would leak the photos to US television networks.

    Queen Elizabeth’s communications secretary declined requests for comment about the conflicting reports surrounding “private” meetings. However, an insider with knowledge of the situation told The Post the reports are bunk: “They just enjoyed a private and intimate visit with the Queen,” the source said, adding that Harry and Markle didn’t even bother asking for photos as the 96-year-old monarch wasn’t feeling well.”

  8. Entire Article @ NY Post: “An Oklahoma woman has been identified as a child who made headlines four decades ago when she vanished without a trace during her parents’ horrific 1981 murder in Texas, the Lone Star State’s attorney general’s office said Thursday. The infant known as “Baby Holly” is now a 42-year-old woman who has been able to reconnect with her biological family thanks to DNA tracing that made the connection, Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton’s office said in a press release.

    “Finding Holly is a birthday present from heaven since we found her on (her father’s) birthday,” said Holly’s biological grandmother Donna Casasanta. “I prayed for more than 40 years for answers and the Lord has revealed some of it … we have found Holly.”    

    Authorities had been searching for Baby Holly since her parents went missing in 1980. Two bodies, believed to be her parents, were found in a wooded area in Houston, but they could not be identified at the time. Tina Gail Linn Clouse and Harold Dean Clouse Jr. had moved from Florida to Texas shortly before they disappeared, along with their infant daughter, Holly. When the two bodies were found, the baby was missing.

    Decades passed before Identifinders International was able to use genetic genealogy in 2021 to positively identify the bodies that were found as the Clouses. Dean had been beaten to death and Tina strangled, according to the Houston Chronicle. The couple’s families were notified about the positive ID last year and began searching for Holly. Investigators visited Holly’s workplace on Tuesday in Oklahoma and told her the news, reports the Houston Chronicle.

    Holly was raised by a family who adopted her and has already met her biological relatives. It was not clear who took Holly after the killings and how she wound up in the care of the adoptive family. Holly’s current identity was also not revealed.

    “It was so exciting to see Holly. I was so happy to meet her for the first time. It is such a blessing to be reassured that she is all right and has had a good life. The whole family slept well last night,” said Cheryl Clouse, Holly’s aunt.

    The investigation into Holly’s biological parents’ murders is ongoing, and the Texas attorney general’s office is asking anyone with information to contact its Cold Case and Missing Persons Unit at coldcaseunit@oag.texas.gov.”

  9. EXCERPT: ““It is with timely irony that the World Health Organization reveals its true colors as it makes a desperate grab for control of global health,” said Wakefield, who directed the film. “This story is a true ‘WHO’ dunnit.”

    “Infertility: A Diabolical Agenda” pulls back the curtain to reveal the truth behind WHO’s nefarious collaboration with the Kenyan government in which an experimental tetanus vaccination — later found to be laced with the pregnancy hormone βhCG (human chorionic gonadotropin) — was given to millions of unknowing African women of childbearing age in the 1990s and early 2000s. Consequently, their right to carry children was stolen.

    Wakefield chronicles this tragic story and brings shocking new evidence to light. As the late Dr. Stephen Karanja warns in the film, “When they’re through with Africa, they’re coming for you.”

    “The truths exposed in this film cast a long shadow from a tetanus trial in Africa to the symptoms of infertility that are happening all over the world, including reports after the Gardasil vaccine and the COVID-19 shots,” said CHD Chief Science Director Dr. Brian Hooker.
    ——————-
    “An abiding principle of ethical medical practice is that every patient has the right to fully informed, voluntary consent,” said Kennedy.

    “We expose the WHO’s gross violation of this principle in its surreptitious campaign to prevent and abort pregnancies in millions of unsuspecting African women. WHO led these women to believe that they were part of a public health program to protect their newborn babies. This is a timely message that the WHO is not fit, on any level, to dictate global health policy.”

  10. EXCERPT: “There have been very few studies looking at how those who’ve elected to rely on natural immunity and natural products, as compared with those who’ve consented to COVID-19 genetic vaccines, the latter who may or may not have also tried to optimize their immune systems, fare when it comes to COVID-19.

    The few that have been done often mix vaccinated with unvaccinated, as shown in the case of U.K. data by professor Norman Fenton and his group at Queen Mary, University of London. That changes with the first release of the analysis of survey data from the international Control Group project — also known as the Vax Control Group.

    The citizen-led project was initiated by an Eastbourne (U.K.) cooperative, the Control Group Cooperative — and it’s had more than 300,000 subscribers. Rob Verkerk Ph.D. of Alliance for Natural Health has led a team, including Dr. Naseeba Kathrada (general practitioner, South Africa, Caring Healthcare Workers Coalition), Christof Plothe D.O. (integrative and osteopathic practitioner, Germany) and Dr. Kat Lindley (family physician, USA), that has collated, analyzed and interpreted the first five months of survey data from “control group” participants.

    The survey data offer important revelations, including:

    – The unvaccinated “control group” participants don’t place a disproportionate burden on health systems — in fact, quite the opposite, they have experienced very low hospitalization rates and severe COVID-19 disease is rare.

    – They are more likely to self-care, using natural products like vitamin D, vitamin C, zinc and quercetin.

    – Many have used ivermectin and hydroxychloroquine.

    – Women have suffered menstrual and bleeding abnormalities despite being unvaccinated, possibly owing to spike protein exposure and shedding.

    – Their mental health burden has been considerable, possibly aggravated by their stigmatization by the mainstream, “vaccinated” society.

    – They have been heavily discriminated against because of their decision to exercise their right to informed consent and refuse the administration of “genetic vaccines.”

  11. CS Lewis’ wisdom

    On heaven

    Redeemed humanity is still young, it has hardly come to its full strength. But already there is joy enough in the little finger of a great saint such as yonder lady to waken all the dead things of the universe into life.

    Everything becomes more and more itself. Here is joy that cannot be shaken. Our light can swallow up your darkness; but your darkness cannot now infect our light. No, no, no. Come to us. We will not go to you. Can you really have thought that love and joy would always be at the mercy of frowns and sighs? Did you not know they were stronger than their opposites?
