 		Just so you know, the photo of Mr S was taken by the Victoria Memorial at Buckingham Palace. I was in the area today, so I went to check it out and see if the other building in the photo exists.

It's a real building, but I discovered that the Mr S photo is flipped. Anyway, I didn't know what the building was, so I decided to find out for myself.

It's called Portland House, was built in '63 and rumour has it that the Queen tried to have it pulled down because it has a view into Buckingham Palace...

Notably, the one of the offices inside is rented out to American Express. Might be unrelated to the story though.

Hope this comes in handy.

Oh, and by the way, the photo from the second from top entry in the PublicNET is of the Greenwich Observatory, which may be where she is hiding out.

 		Alright, just so we have a recap I'm going to detail these entries like a Blog from Maia; but I'm going to do it "backwards" IE: From the latest entry to the first one we got and see if it makes any sense.

Day 16: Latest entry (video).
Quote:
I've got complete information overload, so much stuff... Like the key. I managed to get into one of the offices in the basement and turn on one of the computers... They've got their own power here Geotherm I think? Like their own little station, I'm thinking all the hotspots have them you know? Little underground bunkers with their own power it's the only thing that makes any sense anymore.

But the files, the files I found are mindblowing, seriously... I mean the satellites, and subspots and there's this one file called Sturn, with a U; might just be a coincidence but it's not a common name and well, I dunno... I'm gonna have to think about it.


(Searching Geotherm brings up a new video; gas masks and the like with the words "Affected Area" across the screen but it looks more like a middle-eastern area than the UK.)

Day 17: (Written).
Quote:
All this business about weapons developments and the "Sturn Report"... I'm going home. I need to talk to my dad. If he's still around. He's a consultant, so I'm going to consult him. If he had something to do with this, maybe he's still alive. Maybe he's the reason I'm alive. And Mum. Maybe he kept Mum safe.

But if this is his fault then... No, he wouldn't do this. Not deliberately. It's got to be an accident. He could have been trying to stop it. And maybe he can fix it all. Somehow. He's always been good at fixing things.

Anyway, I need to get back to Greenwich I'm going to stay north of the river as far as I can. I think I've heard explosions coming from the south, maybe gunshots. So I'll stay this side and only cross over when I have to.


Day 18: (Video).
Quote:
I think I'm losing it... I haven't slept properly for days, then I find myself on the street and before I know it ages have gone by and I'm just staring at something...

And I hear noises, screams from across the river and footsteps. I keep thinking someone's following me; shit... I'm going mad! I haven't got time to be going mad... I've seen him he's never nearby but he's always there, watching from above... The top of a building or the edge of the road; sometimes he ducks behind buildings and sometimes he's not there at all.

I don't know anymore, I don't know what I'm seeing... Mr. S. You'd better keep the fuck away from me!


Day 19: (Video).
Quote:
Taken a bit of a detour but... This is where I used to live, up there on the first floor.

That was when I was at Uni... [something] live with my parents so I moved exactly... Five miles down the road, wasn't a particular nice flat but we had some fun times there

[hears a noise] shit...

[noise again] shit...

[camera off.]


Day 22: (Video).
Quote:
Ok... I'm gonna have to move fast now it's getting dark and Im a bit scared that there's somebody still watching me, not far from home I've just gotta keep on moving, keep out of the light....

[Something happens - An attack maybe? See the outline of someone?? Cam goes off - then back on with a delay]

Good... Still working... [counting cam batteries] 1...2...3....

[shoves cam into bag and then it goes off again.]


Day 23: (Written).
Quote:
I'm nearly there - Probably just another mile or two to go. But it's getting properly dangerous. I think i'm still being followed. And there are other people. Gangs. They're just fighting and burning everything all day. There was a whole office block. Fifty floors.

I keep thinking about New York. What does it look like now? Is there anyone left there? Guns, at least there aren't as many guns here. I saw a body. Lying in a doorway, stabbed. I just don't see the point. There's mmore than enough stuff to go round now - why do they have to keep fighting over it? The one thing we're short of is people. Or maybe there are still too many. Maybe there will always be too many. Part of me wonders if the killers aren't human at all, striking down the damned, clearing up the ones who should have been taken. Earth, Purgatory, Hell... I hear things flying at night when it's quiet.

It's too dangerous to go out in the daytime. I'll move tonight. I'd rather take my chances with the foxes and the dogs.


Day 24: (Video).
Quote:
I'm fine... Fine I'm just a little bit scared, but I haven't had any trouble in the last couple of days so I'm pretty sure I'm safe here... Except... I haven't been out in the past couple of days so that might explain it.

There isn't any power here, I've looked in the basement but there's nothing there. It's not an important building but; I'm going not to tell you where I am because I'm not sure who's listening anymore. Anyway tomorrow I'm moving out, I'm going to see my mum and dad; I'm moving... I'm gonna get on with it.


Day 25: (Written).
Quote:
There's nobody here. They're gone. They were supposed to be here.

The house was locked and I can't tell if the alarm was on or not. The car's still in the drive, but my mum only ever used it to do the shopping.

There were all these papers in my dad's office... I don't know if any of them are connected with the Crash. It's all so random. There's one thing that gives me hope, but I don't know if I should even think about it: a travel itinerary. Dated four weeks ago. To Chicago then onto Oklahoma. Just before the Crash. And it's only got one name on it. Dad's.

I don't know what to do. This was never the plan. There's no Plan B, there was never a Plan B. And I don't think I can go anywhere.

I'm not entirely all here. I'm moving this body around, but I'm not in it. It's like I left my mind locked away in that storeroom with my old life. I should have locked all of myself in there and never left.

I thought the bleeding would stop if I kept pressure on it, but it keeps seeping through.

Where's mum? What happened to mum?


Day 26: (First video).
Quote:
I'm not sure how long I've got... I've only got one battery left but I wanted to see you. To say goodbye. So, mum, dad... If you see this, come find me... Please. Just. Come make it better!

I don't know where else to go, I was just hoping you were here... To stop myself from going mad. This isn't how it's supposed to be, everything's gone wrong, [something] people... Everything. This future, is backwards... It's hell, it's my own hell...

I tried to save what I could but... There's nothing left to save. But I've still got the key and there isn't... [Cam cuts off]


Also here's some info on "Geotherm" http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geothermal_power

This sounds like the video already documented by Grace on Vox. For me "Geotherm" brings up the video of the boat and the buildings on a lake.

In the latest video you can see the word "power" flick up just after she mentions the computer in the basement. Searching for "power" gives you this:



I took a shot at "nuclear" and got a video of sunspots.

 		Word combos
Based on N____A_ here is what I tried (although I think it's supposed to be nuclear power, which brings up the Missle Defense PDF:

natural - wave vid (nothing)
nebular - graphs vid
neutral - EMG_092.pdf
newsman - EMG_092.pdf
Newyear - affected area vid
Nevadan - EMG_092.pdf
nodular - sunspots vid
nominal - EMG_092.pdf
noonday - invasion vid
nosebag - infrared vid
nosegay - invasion vid
notepad - clouds vid (nothing)
nuclear - sunspots vid
numeral - EMG_092.pdf
nuptial - EMG_092.pdf
Nunatak - wave vif (nothing)
nylghai - sunspots vid
nylghau - sunspots vid

I tried all of the words in the EMG_092.pdf, nothing new comes up.

Honestly, I'm getting a little bored with this, the puzzles aren't really puzzles, and it's moving very slowly.

 		SubNET
Stay the course mate, I have a feeling it will deliver something good soon. Maybe once the CommNET comes online.

And heres a thing: maybe they aren't puzzles. Its not like we are solving anything ourselves really(except maybe sussing 'conquer' too soon). We dont even know if its a viral ad or an ARG.

Or maybe it is and it's totally arse.

The truth will out!

 		Thought.
There's a discernable pattern of us not hitting the right words to search on Subnet. There has to be more to the picture hidden from view.

Keep searching.

Unless you're the PM you wouldn't know that lol. - As far as I can tell we've been hitting every 'clue' on the head sharp.

 		Day 15 Video.
Quote:
So, to prove it's important I've found it [something] house I've got inside I'm gonna try and get downstairs cos I can hear a generator or something; there's still no-one here.

I tried to be quiet at first, I've just broken through three locked doors and sheets of plated glass, so much for high-security, so I guess that means I'm finally making it... Slow but, I'm making it, maybe that'll mean I'll actually sleep tonight...


Can't make out what flashes on the screen OR the name of the building she finds; someone w/ better speakers might be able to?

Edit: Guest: That's the second part to the video I described with the vision of the airplane crash and dead body via the apartment building. - Nice find. I had to type nuclear in twice before seeing it though.

If ANYONE could rip those to YT that'd be great.

Also that's not a movie theatre; she is/was in a lecture @ University... I only figured this because the ap't block is the same one she said she lived in while @ Uni and the fact they all "laughed" after the explosion kind of tells you that also.

 		Ok ,i've upped the videos and screencapped the phrase that repeats in the video.

The flashing text (in order as it appears in the video)







As you can see, they are all of the same phrase, which appears to be

' Camelford '

though a search for it on the subnet doesnt show anything relevent

I've upped the 2 new videos, just waiting for YT to show them (for some reason its taking ages)

 		It's Camelford House.

That's the place she is in when recording the video...

Here's a map: http://www.londontown.com/LondonStreets/camelford_house_146.html#MAP

Edit: On a sidenote for some reason even though this P.C has Flash 9 installed AND I'm in the United Kingdom, I'm unable to view it now...

 		Camelford House is now more commonly known as Eighty9

Here are the "Conquer" and "Nuclear" videos:

 		Camelford house - from a quick google - also seems to be the offices for a company called 'hemihelp', a company helping kids with hemiplegia. Googled causes - usually caused by a stroke - so i had a look at any known effects of haarp as a weapon, stroke not one of them.

also, hemiplegia, paralysis of one side of the body. although a pain in the ass i'm sure, not really what one's after with a weapon. which a lot of this seems to be about.

so - useless tangent? figure so...
