HAMMOND
Once I've heard someone conclusively tell me what the device is, I will decide whether we should try to find a way to turn it on.
CARTER
Of course. Request permission to join SG16's assignment, Sir.
HAMMOND
Denied. Dr Jackson will be assisting in the translation of the alien language until SG1's next mission. Otherwise, you're all free to take some time off. Dismissed.
[They all rise and Carter heads over to Hammond.]
CARTER
Sir. With all due respect I feel fine. There's absolutely no reason why I shouldn't be allowed to help.
HAMMOND
Major, I have no doubt that your technical expertise will be required at some point down the line. But until Dr Fraiser advises otherwise, I'm ordering you to take it easy.
[He heads into his office.]
CARTER
Take it easy?
O'NEILL
Yeah. You've been a little tense.
CARTER
Tense? Me? I'm not tense. Am I? (quietly)
When did you first notice?
O'NEILL
As we met.
CARTER
I've always just thought of myself as very focussed.
O'NEILL
It's called working too hard. You're going to crash and burn.
CARTER
I really don't have that much else to do, Sir.
O'NEILL
Well find something. Take up…golf. Fly a kite, knit something.
[He leaves the room.]
CARTER
(to the empty room)
I…I'm fine. Really.

From what I've been able to decipher the people on 636 were developing along a similar technological time line to Earth. They had just discovered their STARGATE when what they called the threat from the skies came.

At approximately 4:20 p.m. EST, Eagle 1, a United States Park Police Bell 206L-1 Long Ranger helicopter, N2PP, based at the "Eagles Nest" at Anacostia Park in Washington, D.C. and manned by pilot Donald W. Usher and paramedic Melvin E. (Gene) Windsor arrived and began attempting to assist the survivors to shore. At great risk to themselves, the crew worked close to the river surface, at one time coming so close to the ice-clogged river that the helicopter's skids went beneath the surface of the water.
The helicopter crew lowered a line to survivors to tow them to shore. First to receive the line, Bert Hamilton, who was treading water about ten feet from the floating tail, took the single lifeline dangling beneath the chopper and passed it under his arms. The others watched while the helicopter carried him a hundred yards to the Virginia shore and returned. The helicopter pilot had to gently move the survivor across the ice, while avoiding the sides of the bridge and keeping an eye on the crowd.

That scene of the Potomac, regarding the 1/13/1982 crash of the Air Florida flight that I am watching now on The Weather Channel, makes me think of a "Simpsons" episode, I think the one about "Marge's" fear of flying. That makes me wonder again whether I had something to do with the rescue of those survivors that day, as I was pondering a while back.
JOURNAL ARCHIVE: 01/21/08 12:25 AM
That video showing a few of the survivors in the water and clinging to the wreckage reminds me the scene towards the end of the "Star Trek IV" movie where they are escaping from the "Klingon" ship that they crashed into the San Francisco bay.

Details about my recent sleep are very fuzzy today. Can't remember for sure when I woke up. 3 am maybe. Or maybe shortly after midnight, can't really remember as I usually can. Remember dreaming something about driving my Jeep. Then I returned to it where it was parked in a parking lot after I was traveling through some passageways, hallways in a transit facility maybe. The only part I remember clearly is where a woman, I assume was my imaginary girlfriend asked me out for drinks or something. I told her we needed to keep it really casual though because all I had to wear was sweatpants. Kind of the downside to dating a homeless person I reflect now as I write this. She told me she would wear something with holes in it. I hope that was her in my dream, although the woman in the dream seemed to be someone unfamilar though. But I have noticed that happening with other people I know. They are represented, somehow, by a different person, but I think of them as someone specific. I feel like that is part of the manipulation. I have noticed something similar in real dreams, but I don't think it is the same here. I think they are disquising themselves in my dream for some reason. Anyway, if it really was her, she actually doesn't have to worry about dressing down if we were to go out. Of course, if I have my way, it would be a moot point because why would I want to go out with her when I am in such an ugly situation? At the minimum, I would want to be back to work so that I have regained some independence. And hey, next time you are in my dreams, dear imaginary girlfriend, how about wearing a bikini? Red would be good, or yellow maybe.

In the hour or so after waking up, I was thinking again about possible conversations and events related to this experience or that occurred around the same time. I find myself thinking again that I was enjoying very much my day off at home with my wife Phoebe but I was called to rush to meet the helicopter as described in the text below so I could fly it to the river to rescue the survivors, although I did not explain to her why I had to leave. After I got back home to my wife Phoebe, I explained that President Reagan had personally invited us to spend the next weekend at Camp David with Nancy and him because he had called me in at such short notice. We got there the following weekend and we were talking with Ronald and Nancy and Ronald was explaining to Phoebe that he knows life in the military is difficult on marriages, especially new ones, and so he wanted to talk to us personally and thank us for giving up our day off together. He then explained that he had called me in to fly the helo that rescued the survivors. Phoebe had watched some of it on local news but did not think too much about whether that was me flying the helicopter. President Reagan went on to inform her that he had called me in because I was a military pilot for Special Operations, among my other activities which he did not elaborate on, such as U.S. Navy SEAL, and that it was good that she did not think too much about where I was at when something spectacular was on the news at the same time I was gone. He said something else about how he wanted me to fly that helicopter because I was the best helicopter pilot he knew of in the U.S. military but also because of the failed rescue attempt less than 2 years earlier in Iran. I then explained to my wife Phoebe that I had been one of the pilots on that operation and so she then understood why I was gone during that time. In the back of my mind, I knew that processes were in motion to bring her into the world of the CIA and these were the first steps. One of the important reasons at the beginning, before she established a career on her own merits, was so she would learn how to not give away and details about my activities that I did not want the enemy to know. My involvement in Operation Eagle Claw and that rescue flight on 1/13/1982 was the only activities I told her about. She might have learned of my other activities over time but I expected that could occur regardless of how much I tried to keep her from knowing.

I have memories of details about this disaster but I am not certain what is the source of those memories. As I was reading about it again just now, I was wondering if this was an air disaster that has been lingering in my mind for a long time but I am not certain if this is the one. Something has been lingering in my mind about a civilian passenger jet that was similar to the DC-10, or that was a DC-10, where the pilot was pulled from the nose section of the aircraft some time after the crash had occurred and no one had thought to look in that section, which had broken off from the rest of the aircraft. I think he was the only survivor in that section.
from 10/11/1968 to 2/24/1992 divided by 2 equals 3/3/1959 to 11/8/1970.

This reminds me of something someone at Microsoft said to me in late September 2001. I was in Charlotte, North Carolina, on a business trip that Microsoft had arranged before the 9/11/2001 attacks on New York City and the Pentagon. Microsoft arranged the trip before the 9/11/2001 attacks so that I would be flying across the United States on a civilian airliner, similar to the hijacked airliners of 9/11/2001, in the days after the 9/11/2001. I read that the hijackers chose the aircraft specifically that were traveling cross-country because they would have more fuel onboard the aircraft, thus creating greater explosions.
So anyway, I had been sent by Microsoft to Charlotte, North Carolina, on a business trip that was arranged before 9/11/2001 and I was meeting employees from another company that was based on Riverside in another city in the Northeast. Of the two people from that company, one person I already knew and I always wondered over how he resembled the actor James Woods. The other person I had not met before. The James Woods-look-alike made a puzzling comment about how he did not know why she introduced herself with a variation of her name that she normally did not use. Some time later I was talking to her during the course of our work and we were talking about the hijacked airliners and she commented that I was someone she would always want around if she was flying and I found that a puzzling comment.

United Airlines Flight 232 was a scheduled flight operated by United Airlines between Denver and Philadelphia via Chicago. On July 19, 1989, the Douglas DC-10 (Registration N1819U) suffered an uncontained failure of its number 2 engine which destroyed all three of the aircraft's hydraulic systems. With no controls working except the power levers for the two remaining engines, it broke up during an emergency landing on the runway at Sioux City, Iowa, killing 110 of its 285 passengers and one of the 11 crew members.
Owing to the skill of the crew and a DC-10 instructor pilot, 175 passengers and 10 crew members survived the crash. The disaster is famous within the aviation community as a textbook example of successful Crew Resource Management, due to the effective use of all the resources available aboard the plane for help during the emergency

I also pondered over the scene where "Kara Thrace" seems to find her dead body in the wreckage of the crash and I again think that has something to do with me on 6/27/1994 and or several times before.
I thought that meant she was the 5th "Cylon" but I guess not after watching the entire episode. I also think of how that "Cylon" with her was afraid of her, and I think that one possibility is that she is the 6th "Cylon" and was created as a new model when she died during the crash. I thought that the other "Cylon" was afraid because he realized he had been torturing one of his own kind and that frightened him because he anticipated consequences for torturing another "Cylon."

The American Presidency Project
Barack Obama
XLIV President of the United States: 2009 - present
329 - Executive Order 13729—A Comprehensive Approach to Atrocity Prevention and Response
May 18, 2016
Section 1. Policy. As articulated in Presidential Study Directive-10 (PSD-10), preventing mass atrocities and genocide is a core national security interest and a core moral responsibility of the United States. Noting that governmental engagement on mass atrocities and genocide too often arrives too late, when opportunities for prevention or low-cost, low-risk action have been missed, PSD-10 directed the establishment of an interagency Atrocities Prevention Board (Board), with the primary purpose of coordinating a whole-of-government approach to prevent mass atrocities and genocide. PSD-10 also directed an interagency study to develop and recommend the membership, mandate, structure, operational protocols, authorities, and support necessary for the Board to coordinate and develop atrocity prevention and response policy. This order continues in place the Board established in 2012 as I directed in PSD-10, sets out the support to be afforded by executive departments, agencies, and offices, and updates and memorializes the terms on which the Board will continue to operate in the service of its important mission.
Sec. 2. Definition. For purposes of this order, the term "mass atrocities" or "atrocities," neither of which is defined under international law, refers to large scale and deliberate attacks on civilians, and includes acts falling within the definition "genocide" as defined in international law and under U.S. domestic statute.
Sec. 3. Responsibilities. The Board shall seek to ensure that mass atrocities and the risk thereof are effectively considered and appropriately addressed by the U.S. Government, and shall coordinate the development and execution of policies and tools to enhance our capacity to prevent and respond to mass atrocities.
(a) In order to ensure that emerging mass atrocity risks and mass atrocity situations are considered and addressed, the Board shall monitor developments around the world that heighten the risk of mass atrocities, and analyze and closely review specific mass atrocity threats or situations of heightened concern.
(b) The Board shall also identify any gaps related to the prevention of and response to mass atrocities in the current policies and ongoing interagency processes concerning particular regions or countries and shall make recommendations to strengthen policies, programs, resources, and tools related to mass atrocity prevention and response to relevant executive departments and agencies (agencies), including through the Board's function as an interagency policy committee, as detailed in section 4 of this order. In these efforts, the Board shall focus in particular on ways for the U.S. Government to develop, strengthen, and enhance its capabilities to:
(i) monitor, receive early warning of, and coordinate responses to potential mass atrocities;

(f) The Chair shall prepare written updates for the public, on an annual basis, on the work of the U.S. Government in mass atrocity prevention and response, including the work of the Board.
(g) Consistent with the objectives set out in this order and in accordance with applicable law, the Board shall conduct outreach, including regular consultations, with representatives of nongovernmental organizations with expertise in mass atrocity prevention and response and other appropriate parties. Such outreach shall be for the purpose of assisting the Board with its work on considering and addressing emerging mass atrocity threats or situations and on developing new or improved policies and tools, as well as for the purpose of providing transparency on the work of the Board.
(h) In order to conduct the work set forth in this order effectively, the Board may:
(i) request information or analysis from the Intelligence Community (IC), Chiefs of Mission, agencies, and offices;
(ii) develop policy recommendations and programmatic recommendations for agencies, offices, and existing interagency processes;

Sec. 5. Enhancing Capabilities and Tools. Agencies shall take the following actions in support of the United States Government's policy of working to prevent and respond to mass atrocities:
(a) Agencies, in coordination with the Board, shall ensure that mass atrocity prevention and response staffing, training, funding, and activities are addressed in their strategic planning and budget processes, including Department Quadrennial Reviews, Mission Resource Requests, State Department Integrated Country Strategies, U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) Joint Strategic Plans, State Department Bureau Strategic Resource Plans, and related strategic planning and budget processes and documents. The Chair shall make recommendations to the National Security Advisor on the inclusion of material in the President's National Security Strategy that addresses mass atrocity prevention and response.
(b) The Department of State and USAID shall work with OMB to support the maintenance of civilian assistance accounts and authorities that enable swift civilian responses to mass atrocity threats and situations.
(c) The Department of State and USAID shall offer mass atrocity prevention and response training courses to all officers deployed or planning deployment to countries deemed by the IC to be at high or substantial risk for mass atrocities.
(d) The Department of State and USAID shall continue to build and use civilian capacity (i.e., the ability to deploy personnel with expertise in conflict prevention, civilian protection, mediation, and other relevant skills) effectively for mass atrocity prevention and response, and shall develop mechanisms for enhanced partnerships with non-U.S. Government actors that could provide surge capacity, such as the United Nations and other multilateral and regional organizations, foreign governments, and nongovernmental organizations.
(e) The IC shall continue to monitor developments worldwide and, as changing conditions warrant, prepare an IC-coordinated assessment updating IC judgments in its National Intelligence Estimate on the global risk of mass atrocities and genocide at regular intervals to inform the work of the Board.
(f) Recognizing mass atrocity prevention as a core national security interest of the United States, the IC shall allocate resources so as to permit a collection surge for countries where the Board determines, and the Deputies concur, that there are ongoing or acute risks of mass atrocities that merit increased attention, in accordance with the National Intelligence Priority Framework and available resources.
(g) The IC shall work with partner governments to encourage the collection and analysis of mass atrocity-related intelligence and the sharing of this intelligence with the U.S. Government and its partners in mass atrocity prevention and response.
(h) The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and the Department of Justice, in coordination with the Department of State, shall continue to develop proposals for legislative, regulatory, or administrative amendments or changes that would permit the more effective use and enforcement of immigration and other laws to deny impunity to perpetrators of mass atrocities and that would enhance our ability to prosecute such perpetrators subject to the jurisdiction of the United States and remove those who are not citizens.
(i) The Department of Defense (DOD) shall continue to develop joint doctrine and training that support mass atrocity prevention and response operations and shall address mass atrocity prevention and response as part of its general planning guidance to combatant commands and services.
(j) The Department of State, the Department of the Treasury, DHS, the U.S. Mission to the United Nations (USUN), and other agencies as appropriate, shall coordinate with bilateral and multilateral partners on the deployment of mass atrocity prevention and response tools, including isolating and deterring perpetrators of mass atrocities through all available authorities (including administrative actions, visa authorities, and capacity-building support), as appropriate.
(k) The Department of State, in coordination with USUN, DOD, and other agencies as appropriate, shall work bilaterally, multilaterally, and with regionally based organizations to enhance effectiveness in the fields of early warning, analysis, prevention, response, and
accountability, and shall work with international partners to build or encourage building the capacity of our allies and partners to prevent and respond to mass atrocities.
Sec. 6. General Provisions. (a) Members of the Board shall serve without any additional compensation for their work on the Board.
(b) Nothing in this order shall be construed to impair or otherwise affect:
(i) the authority granted by law to an executive department, agency, or the head thereof, or the status of that department or agency within the Federal Government; or
(ii) the functions of the Director of OMB relating to budgetary, administrative, or legislative proposals.
(c) This order shall be implemented consistent with applicable law, and subject to the availability of appropriations.
(d) This order is not intended to, and does not, create any right or benefit, substantive or procedural, enforceable at law or in equity by any party against the United States, its departments, agencies, or entities, its officers, employees, or agents, or any other person.
