"BUILD IT AND THEY WILL COME" -----NOVEMBER 28, 2012[/caption]Kryptos Sculptor Offers Another Clue
Jim Sanborn just can’t believe that it’s taking so long for cryptographers and “Brownies” (as they term fans of Dan Brown’s fiction) to decode his sculpture “Kryptos” outside the CIA’s Langley HQ. The New York Times reports that he’s giving them yet another clue:The artist who created the enigmatic Kryptos, a puzzle-in-a-sculpture that has driven code breakers to distraction since it was installed 24 years ago in a courtyard at C.I.A. headquarters in Langley, Va., has decided that it is time for a new clue.
By 1999, nine years after it went up, Kryptos fans had deciphered three of the sculpture’s four messages — 865(911) letters punched through elegantly curved copper sheets that make up the most striking part of the work. (In fact, cryptographers at the National Security Agency cracked those messages in 1993 (21), but kept the triumph to themselves.) The fourth and final passage, a mere 97 (7) characters long, has thwarted thousands of followers ever since. -
Jim Sanborn, the sculptor, having grown impatient with the progress of the fans and their incessant prodding for clues — and the misguided insistence by some that they had actually solved the puzzle — provided a six-letter clue to the puzzle in 2010. The 64th through 69th (6) characters of the final panel, when deciphered, spelled out the word BERLIN.
Since then, the fans, many of whom keep up a lively online conversation, have come up empty-handed. And so Mr. Sanborn has decided to open the door a bit more with five additional letters, those in the 70th (7) through 74th (11) position.
They spell “clock.”
This means that the letters from positions 64 (1) to 74 (11) spell out two words: “Berlin clock.”…

- 4.1 Solution of passage 1 BETWEEN SUBTLE SHADING AND THE ABSENCE OF LIGHT LIES THE NUANCE OF IQLUSION
- 4.2 Solution of passage 2 IT WAS TOTALLY INVISIBLE HOWS THAT POSSIBLE ? THEY USED THE EARTHS MAGNETIC FIELD X THE INFORMATION WAS GATHERED AND TRANSMITTED UNDERGRUUND TO AN UNKNOWN LOCATION X DOES LANGLEY KNOW ABOUT THIS ? THEY SHOULD ITS BURIED OUT THERE SOMEWHERE X WHO KNOWS THE EXACT LOCATION ? ONLY WW THIS WAS HIS LAST MESSAGE X THIRTY EIGHT DEGREES FIFTY SEVEN MINUTES SIX POINT FIVE SECONDS NORTH SEVENTY SEVEN DEGREES EIGHT MINUTES FORTY FOUR SECONDS WEST X LAYER TWO
Note: The coordinates mentioned in the plaintext: 38°57′6.5″N 77°8′44″W. The point is about 150 feet southeast of the sculpture itself.[1]
- 4.3 Solution of passage 3 SLOWLY DESPARATLY SLOWLY THE REMAINS OF PASSAGE DEBRIS THAT ENCUMBERED THE LOWER PART OF THE DOORWAY WAS REMOVED WITH TREMBLING HANDS I MADE A TINY BREACH IN THE UPPER LEFT HAND CORNER AND THEN WIDENING THE HOLE A LITTLE I INSERTED THE CANDLE AND PEERED IN THE HOT AIR ESCAPING FROM THE CHAMBER CAUSED THE FLAME TO FLICKER BUT PRESENTLY DETAILS OF THE ROOM WITHIN EMERGED FROM THE MIST X CAN YOU SEE ANYTHING Q ?
- 4.4 Solution of passage 4 Part 4 remains unsolved, though there was an active Yahoo! Group[16] (formed in 2003) that coordinated the work of over 2000 members toward decryption of the code.When commenting in 2006 about his error in section 2, Sanborn said that the answers to the first sections contain clues to the last section.[17] In November 2010, Sanborn released another clue: Letters 64-69 NYPVTT in part 4 encode the text BERLIN.[18][19] Sanborn gave the New York Times a second clue in November 2014: Letters 70-74 in part 4, which read MZFPK, will be CLOCK when decoded.[20]

A rotating magnetic field of steady amplitude requires that all three phase currents be equal in magnitude, and accurately displaced one-third of a cycle in phase. Unbalanced operation results in undesirable effects on motors and generators.

Still, how bad is the problem? Physicists were complaining in public about the lack of precision with which this constant was measured in 1898 and have really never stopped. As an agenda for a conference set for February 27, 2014 explains:
The Newtonian constant of gravitation, G, is the only fundamental constant of physics for which the uncertainty given in successive CODATA evaluations has increased. Measurements made since 2000, using a variety of methods, now show a spread of values more than ten times their estimated uncertainties. We shall explore possible reasons for this and hope to come to some proposals for new measurements that might resolve the present impasse.
