 		The devil part fits. Samael is the Angel of Death. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P2gFZPt13qA
The Popular Culture section is quite interesting.

I haven't been able to run the new Black Box (anybody got a version for Mac?).

"A cat in a box" seems a pretty clear reference to Schrodinger's Cat. This "Thought Experiment" essentially says that an unobserved object can be in multiple states at the same time. (The cat is both dead and alive.) From this Hugh Everett came up with the many worlds interpretation of quantum mechanics. Essentially "parallel universes".

The new photo (copyright Warren Order, 1993), the name anagrams to Warn Ed Error.
The image also has 2 p's (P=P) and the letters "ar king".


Not sure what any of this means, but could be that Edward has found a way to an alternate universe. In the future (22012023 or Jan 22, 2023) or the past (Nov 29, 1929) or both?

 		Left Hand of God
I did some reading and it seems that the Archangel Gabriel is reffered to as the left hand of God.

[edit] PseudepigraphyAccording to the non-canonical Enoch 9:1–2, Gabriel, along with Michael, Raphael, Uriel and Suriel hear the cries of humanity under the strain of the Nephilim. It was their beseeching of "the Ancient of Days" (Yahweh), that prompted God to call Enoch to prophethood.After Enoch informed the Watchers of their fall from grace, Yahweh sent the archangels to earth to complete various tasks. In Enoch 10:13, Gabriel was to "Go to the biters, to the reprobates, to the children of fornication, the offspring of the Watchers, from among men; bring them forth and excite them against one another. Let them perish under mutual slaughter; for length of days shall not be theirs." And so, Gabriel instigated wars among the Giants (the children of the Watchers).Enoch 20:7 says that Gabriel presides over "Ikisat" (the fiery serpents) or Seraphim, Cherubim, and paradise, while Enoch 40:9 states that Gabriel presides over "all that is powerful." Gabriel sits on the left hand of God with Metatron

 		Samael
I asked Samael what Gabriels folly was and he responded with:

"My idiot brother's need to speak to his fallen brothers. Michael
closed the gateway and G reopened it an infinitesimal amount, he doesn't
have the same power as Michael. Of course he can't close it again, so
yours truly gets tasked with keeping an eye on it. God knows as he
knows everything but has chosen to say nothing about it."

It seems that the fallen brother is Lucifer, not sure where to go next, is it possible that Maad is fallen into that gateway?

 		So, we are now dealing with Angels and the devil himself? Wow this game took a decidedly epic turn!

I'm not sure how I feel about a supposed in-game character, posting on a real life blog. Like I mentioned earlier, this is feeling more and more like a gamejack.

I haven't figured it out yet, but I have heard from Lewis and supplied him with the password for ozmhb, in exchange for transcripts of orbis and saith.

Nothing new in the analysis from what I've already sent you.


ETA: Also Wallace mailed to say he is "Seeing Drake tomorrow". Lewis also mailed this and just traded again:

Public Inquiry into Corporeal Jack Wright's Disappearance (Excerpts)

Army Survival Training in the Cambrian Mountains on the 28/29th October 1929.

According to the Public Inquiry Corporeal Jack Wright was thought by members of his squad to be a bit of a know it all and he had never backed down from a bet, quite the gambler in fact. The squad members came up with a practical joke to play on their annoying officer. They bet him five pounds that he couldn't run up the mountain and back in less than hour, he had to carry an iron hammer and hit the bronze anvil at its summit to prove he had reached the top. The joke being that there was no anvil on the summit, except in myth and legend.

Just after the Corporeal left a thick mist rolled in and the rest of the squad could barely see three feet in front of themselves.

Forty minutes later the soldiers heard three metallic clangs and two hours later the Corporeal had not returned. The mist cleared away about three hours later and the squad went in search of their officer. All that was found of the Corporeal was his army jacket torn in two at a dip near the summit.

Squad members described a deep cold dread overcome them directly after they heard the three clangs, this was put down to in the inquiry as mere fancy.

So, is this likely the "Last Known Event" & it's pretty spooky to boot. Shocked Woh, another barcode/"images/1-3.gif". Meaning?
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
ace or droll

 		I got orbis and saith transcripts from Lewis...

Quote:
Transcripts:

Saith: Denton transmitting through Origin. Your signal...we've pinpointed your now as 2000 you are before Origin...
Orbis: Stone circles sweet spot point amplify signal

Summary of Wav File Analysis from four different experts

Voice on the sound file is definitely human and not computer generated.
Signal appears to be a Medium Wave running at approximately 333kHz.
Oddities within the signal appear to be very different from anything I've heard before
Detection finds a phase modulation within the signal which encodes four digits: 2023
Detection finds a phase modulation within the signal which encodes the following phrase: BAD MAGIC
Doesn't appear to have Ionospheric skip, signal must be point to point
Static is inconsistent with known trends

 		Wallace Update & Bob uploaded dhl.txt, a vid link & bit from D.H. Lawrence's "Snake", & wyth.7z (Welsh=eight) whose PW is:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Lawrence (case sensitive)

EDIT: Inside "The fifth is ambition" zipped file is another PW protected file called "vier.7z" (archaic: to wager & Dutch word for four), an arf.wav file (Welsh=weapon) and a txt.file ("Q29udHJvbA==" which is base64 for "control") that decodes as:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
ROT1: "De Lorge's love o'erheard the King, a beauteous lively dame With smiling lips and sharp bright eyes, which always seemed the same." From the poem: THE GLOVE AND THE LIONS by Leigh Hunt.

And Wallace in an email wrote:
Knowing which mountain in Wales would also be useful, I just hope we don't find Edward torn in two.
See if you can get the name of the mountain out of Style.

I probably won't sleep tonight turning this over in my mind. FortunatelyLouise is feeling better once I persuaded her that the world wasn't going to end any time soon and if Bob's messages are true it is more likely to be a different world out there. The Planetary Graphic Novel Crossing Worlds has always been a favourite of mine, I may not be up on all the Modern gadgets but I can still read. Crooked Little Vein by Warren Ellis truly brilliant.
You need a little imagination to be a decent P.I.

Finally, (TY Zeus Very Happy ) "The fifth is ambition. It next will be right" is from L. Carroll's THE HUNTING OF THE SNARK. Like Booba am having woes but extracted "vier.7z" in safe-mode with below PW. It has a folder, To describe each particular batch (Carroll)
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Hunt (case sensitive)

Inside is a PWprotected "saith.7z" zip that I can't open and a binary file titled "TerlStyle" (Terl=Grey@ROT13) decoded below:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Through solstice stubborn to equinox. And I rave; and I rape and I rip and I rend
Everlasting, world without end. Mannikin, maiden, maenad, man,

Also Samael Leamas at FB re "images/1-3.gif" wrote:
"Sounds like you've picked up the first message, two more to understand and translate then. You might have more luck with Bob's latest PW once you understand them. Google is your friend, don't over complicate it Any animated gif editor will access all msgs I left, unscramble them and you will get a nice surprise" [my note:reckon he means the PW of "negen.7z"]

So we still need the hard stuff: animated gif,"negen" PW, new "saith.7z" opened and the audio file tweaked. Happy W'knd Laughing

Samael is not who says he is, definitely not an angel of God. It was never Gabriel's fault. Samael created all of the myths about himself over the millenia he can't admit the real truth, he has tried three times to complete his plan, this will be the fourth. He must be stopped!

In times of stress I come out and he is very stressed now.

Who do you think Style is working for?

Fortunately for mankind he is limited by what he can do, influence mostly, be careful.

Don't reply to this email or he will know and move far sooner than I can been ready for him.

Leamas



Received the above email this morning from an address named "Samael Leamas" - some kind of alternate personality?

 		Coffee Also got that perplexing mail. Remain clueless 'tho will follow its advice atm and the NEW "saith.7z" opens with PW:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
"Crowley" (case sensitive). A Quote from Hymn to Pan by A. Crowley is in the binary file above.

The Jabberwocky quoted folder has 2 files. One file called 6913.doc contains this Youtube link and a msg below: The best place to hide something is in plain sight. The other file is Ruigzout.7z meaning "RoughSalt" in Dutch and unknown PW protected. Sad

ETA: Highlighting the 6913.doc reveals one hidden word: "Maitiu" which is gaelic Mathew. The Lord's Prayer is Mathew 6:9-13

Got a feeling that unlocking "Ruigzout.7z" provides the big pay-off & that the clues may be leading to a Scifi writer John Ringo. Hoping one of y'all has also been able to easily open the zip files cuz am coming up dry re the "Ruigzout.7z" PW at present.

 		Separated the animated gif (images/1-3) into three barcodes. Am only pretty certain about two of the anagrams. They are:
ace or droll
adipa dorinn orad=Paranoid Android
apes if kev=five peaks=Plynlimon
Wikipedia wrote:
Plynlimon (anglicised from Pumlumon in Welsh, meaning "five peaks") is the highest point of the Cambrian Mountains.

Along with "negen.7z" Bob uploaded that "vinram" image which is an anagram for Marvin. Marvin, the Paranoid Android is:
Wikipedia wrote:
the ship's robot... in The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy....In the final novel Marvin is back to parking cars at Milliways

ETA: So, ahaha, the Cool PW for "negen.7z" is:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Milliways (case sensitive)

One of the two files "rust.txt" has a msg reading dark in voices the (@ROT22) & a beaut Youtube link. Zeit-Durchlaufe.wav is the other file meaning "through the course of time". Sounds like it needs only a bit of tempo tweaking to hear it well.

 		Amandel, awesome job on those passwords! Rock On Sorry, I haven't been of any help the last few days, and unfortunately, I have a busy week ahead, and will not be around much. I'll try to check in to offer help whenever I can.

I received this email from Samael earlier today.

Quote:
Challengers,

Did I say not to reply, I suppose it is really my fault I should of never sent it from his email address.

I don't have much time, you must make sure Wallace beats Lewis to the gateway of Tartarus.

I can not help you with passwords (hint maybe) it goes against the grain of my classical upbringing.

I can tell you that the animated barcode gif on Wallace's site is 3 barcodes:

1. Clue to the Negen password
2. Clue to the gateway of Tartarus
3. Ace or Droll is anagram

In fact all 3 are anagrams

And remember just because you can not see something it does not mean it is not there.

Leamas.
