You can Shorten goo.gl links with goo.gl. I don’t understand why but now you can create links like http://goo.gl/LoeN that don’t go anywhere. This because your browser stops redirecting after some x redirects. This is what IE 8 does:
------------------- URI: goo.gl/LoeN IP: 66.102.13.101:80 Time: 23:08:38.453 GET /LoeN HTTP/1.1 ------------------- URI: goo.gl/LoeN IP: 66.102.13.101:80 Time: 23:08:38.671 HTTP/1.1 301 Moved Permanently Location: http://goo.gl/iVC1 ------------------- URI: goo.gl/iVC1 IP: 66.102.13.101:80 Time: 23:08:38.671 GET /iVC1 HTTP/1.1 ------------------- URI: goo.gl/iVC1 IP: 66.102.13.101:80 Time: 23:08:38.734 HTTP/1.1 301 Moved Permanently Location: http://goo.gl/1LyW ------------------- URI: goo.gl/1LyW IP: 66.102.13.101:80 Time: 23:08:38.734 GET /1LyW HTTP/1.1 ------------------- URI: goo.gl/1LyW IP: 66.102.13.101:80 Time: 23:08:38.906 HTTP/1.1 301 Moved Permanently Location: http://goo.gl/9hdZ ------------------- URI: goo.gl/9hdZ IP: 66.102.13.101:80 Time: 23:08:38.906 GET /9hdZ HTTP/1.1 ------------------ URI: goo.gl/9hdZ IP: 66.102.13.101:80 Time: 23:08:38.968 HTTP/1.1 301 Moved Permanently Location: http://goo.gl/SSq8 ------------------- URI: goo.gl/SSq8 IP: 66.102.13.101:80 Time: 23:08:38.968 GET /SSq8 HTTP/1.1 ------------------- URI: goo.gl/SSq8 IP: 66.102.13.101:80 Time: 23:08:39.046 HTTP/1.1 301 Moved Permanently Location: http://goo.gl/J6rK ------------------- URI: goo.gl/J6rK IP: 66.102.13.101:80 Time: 23:08:39.046 GET /J6rK HTTP/1.1 -------------------

But http://goo.gl/LoeN is pointing somewhere. Please let me know if your browser reaches the final URL……..

Project Blue Beam test in Norway?

On 9 December a blue light seemed to soar up from behind a mountain in the north of Norway. In mid-air it stopped and began to move in circles. It covered the entire sky. Then a green-blue beam of light beamed from its centre. It all lasted 10 to 12 minutes before disappearing completely.

A Norwegian defence spokesman said the display was most likely from a failed Russian test launch. It looks more like a Blue Beam Project test.

“The Blue Beam Project will pretend to be the universal fulfillment of the prophecies of old. In principle, it will make use of the sky as a movie screen space-based, laser-generating satellites project simultaneous images to every part of the planet, in every language, in every dialect according to region. Specifically, the show will consist of laser projections of multiple holographic images to different parts of the world, each receiving different images according to predominating regional/national religious faiths. No area will be excluded. With computer animation and sound effects appearing to come from the depths of space, astonished followers of the various creeds will witness their own returned Messiah in spectacularly convincing lifelike realness. The various saviors will then merge into one after “correct” explanations of the mysteries, prophecies, and revelations will have been disclosed. This event will occur at a time of great political and general tumult.”

Perhaps it is time to restore the Wikipedia article about it. See: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Project_Blue_Beam
