No the deal is that you would have more success if you open yourself up to anything NOVEL,or choose among novel plans,and in a time of high NOVELTY you might get it better than you thought.There's action involved,not just talk or feelings.
I made that happen when instead of a plain floor in the entry of my shop,I went and made it into a tool by incorporating square tube pieces into the floor.Has a lot of potential for fixturing.I hadda make something happen and NOVELTY was a result.Would it have happened even if the TWZ said ,"HABIT"?Dunno,but I'm sure glad it did...

I don't think what is happening in ukraine matter on a large scale,because i don't think it is novel(personally) and secondly,it only effects a very small percent of the Earth population, don't search for an even, that's not what TWZ shows. An event CAN occur,but might not. With Michael Jackson and Iran,that captured the united attention of millions upon millions. With Ukraine it's not so, so don't think that is the novelty you may be searching event wise.

Has anyone brought up the idea that the Oct. 26th dip could be referencing what is going on in Ukraine?

There was no clear event or series of events this tiem around.
However the whoel atmosphere of novelty and our consciousness entering new novel grounds did occur I believe.
Creativity and Novelty
Every fact in the Universe is the exemplification of creativity, including God. It is the ultimate metaphysical principle allowing for Novelty. (The emergence of the new, for “creative advance.”) This novelty may inhibit and delay the creative advance and thus provide the condition for the rise of evil (loss). However, when the creative advance attains its final phase or its satisfaction, the universe is better off for the fact of evil. All inhibiting novelties somehow contribute to a greater good. The “satisfaction”, or the final phase of the becoming, is richer in content by reason of the particular cosmic contrasts. In the creative advance of the world, particular evil facts are finally transcended.
Actual occasions and the societies they form are in a process of growing together (concrescence) until they reach a final phase which is called “satisfaction.” Every occasion is at once the subject experiencing and the super-ject of this experience;—the present experiential datum, but also the future result or aim of its present experience. This aim or future project is the “subjective aim” which controls the becoming of the actual occasion, luring it to final satisfaction. Actual occasions perish, but they enter into the internal constitution of other actual occasions, in which they become objectified. Every present fact of the universe is thus constituted by its antecedent phases. So also is every present fact of the universe thus constituted by its potential for future realization by its subjective aim.
What we experience and call in the everyday “human consciousness”—(or for that matter “see” and call a “person”)—Whitehead counts as only one type of occasion among others, saying that “philosophers have disdained the information about the universe obtained through their visceral feelings and have concentrated on visual feelings. The feeling that we have and call “human consciousness” is in Whitehead’s construction, actually only the briefest of percipient experiences—a person is a sequence of felt experiences characterized by “his or her” own individuality. And a person’s lifetime is primarily a society of such occasions of personality.
This complex understanding rest upon Whitehead’s particular way of ordering nature and his understanding of the order of things not so much as an order of given “stuff,” but rather a series of occasions to be experienced—that is, a process, and a hierarchy of relationships—an image of Chinese boxes each lodged one within the other. Each box provides more specialized and limited types of societies, and each box presupposes the wider social orderings of which they are a part. The first so called “box” might be considered being what Whitehead calls “the extensive continuum”—the general type of relatedness that holds or our whole physical world together. Within this set of general relatedness can be found the “box” of geometric relationships, within that, the “box of electromagnetic society,” which he identifies as our cosmic epoch. In this “nesting,” there results an organismic coherence in which every event in the universe is a factor in every other event.
~'children playing with fire' is the perfect metaphor for present-day technicians tinkering with bio-weapons~
The 1811 Great fire of Podil occurred on the morning of June 9, 1811 in the historical and commercial neighborhood of Podil in Kiev (Kyiv), the capital of Ukraine. The fire lasted for three days and almost destroyed the whole neighborhood. Before the fire, the Podil was the city's most densely populated neighborhood; out of 3,672 households in the city, 2,068 were located in the Podil.
The fire's power was strengthened with high winds and the season's severe droughts, where even the nearby Dnieper River was reported to have been dried out. The city's official version of the cause of the fire, however, was said to be children playing with fire.
More than 2,000 homes, magistrate buildings, 12 churches, and 3 monasteries were destroyed in the fire. However, some buildings were spared destruction, including the House of Peter I. Smoke from the fire was reported to have been seen more than 130 km (81 mi) away.
~emphasis added on wildfire~
"A flu outbreak is endangering the national security of Ukraine," declared Ukrainian President Viktor Yushchenko in a special decree.
As a result of viral pneumonia and related problems, 53 people have already died in Western regions of the country. The number of affected is presently estimated at 185,000.
As panic and fear grip the nation, the government in Kiev has appealed to its neighbors, including Poland, for assistance. According to some experts, due to the current situation in Ukraine, a state of emergency in Poland cannot be ruled out as flu outbreak spreads like wildfire and claims more lives.
Professor Moshe had called into a live radio show by Dr. A. True Ott, broadcast on Republic Broadcasting claiming to be a microbiologist who wanted to supply evidence to a States Attorney regarding tainted H1N1 Swine flu vaccines being produced by Baxter BioPharma Solutions. He said that Baxter’s Ukrainian lab was in fact producing a bioweapon disguised as a vaccine. He claimed that the vaccine contained an adjuvant (additive) designed to weaken the immune system, and replicated RNA from the virus responsible for the 1918 pandemic Spanish flu, causing global sickness and mass death.
I would like to state an opinion. This topic is not on everyones mind. I live in Estonia for ex.And not only do I not think about it outside ATS, but neither do my friends/relatives/people at school etc.

H1N1
First I want to point out that both the CDC and WHO officially recognize this strain of the flu as Novel H1N1 Flu (Swine Flu). Note the term 'novel' in the title. This is novelty affecting humanity on a global scale, and regardless of its true virulence, this topic is on everyone's mind. People are making decisions in their lives based on this threat, and the Timewave validates this as a heavy and relevant topic.
Unless something happens in the next week (since in April's 2009 novelty dip happened also about one week ago before the start of the Mexican swine flu).
On April 17, 2009 the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) identified two human cases of swine influenza A (H1N1) virus in San Diego county California. Since then 20 new cases have been identified in California, Texas, Kansas, Ohio and New York City. None of the cases have recent contact with swine and there has been no link established between the cases except for one father and daughter.
