Bright UFO over Candelaria Valle Del Cauca, Colombia on 29th July 2014
Bright UFO over Candelaria Valle Del Cauca, Colombia on 29th July 2014
New interesting video footage of a bright UFO sighting recorded in the sky above Candelaria Valle Del Cauca, Colombia on 29th July 2014.
Witness said: July 9, 2014 at 5:40 am. Recorded at 5:40 a.m. over Colombia. This footage shows something strange That is not mars and possibly not From this solar system! Is it ET? The witness Seems to think so! Whats your opinions on this video?
Witness said: Three ‘orbs’ fly above cloud level over Berkshire, appearing within just 45 seconds of each other. Ist orb appear top right of screen at 3.03, second travels down from top centre through clearing in clouds at 0.12 whilst final one travels from left to bottom centre between gap in clouds a few second before the end of this video. Footage captured on a Nikon P300 facing directly up at sky with 50% zoom. Footage has been enhanced in iMovie and plays at normal speed. Recorded at around 3.30pm on July 29th
There are some unsettling conclusions reached by abduction researchers that are rarely mentioned in mainstream UFO reporting. Abduction researchers suggest, often based on decades of research, that there may be more going on with most UFO witnesses than simply seeing something unusual in the sky.
There is a wide continuum of what gets reported as a UFO. At one end of this spectrum are tiny dots of light making odd motions way off in the distance, but the source could be something perfectly terrestrial. On the other end of that same spectrum would be a close up sighting of a silvery flying saucer hovering silently just above the swing set in the back yard; which would be very difficult to dismiss as anything other than unknown.
David Marler
Author and researcher David Marler has been calling the more noteworthy sightings unambiguous UFOs. This implies something well beyond the tiny dots that make up the majority of the sightings reports.
Marler says, “I came up with the term unambiguous UFOs to separate descriptions of large, low-flying, structured aerial objects from the ubiquitous and ambiguous light in the sky UFO reports. I believe there is a huge distinction between the two that demands clarification.”
The late researcher Elaine Douglass collected UFO reports for MUFON (Mutual UFO Network) for more than a quarter century. When conducting an investigation she would ask the witnesses the standard set of questions for any sighting, what time, how big, and so on. She would then do a follow up interview with deeper, more personal questions, asking them to describe any unusual personal events. This simply involved asking: “So, what else, in your whole life, has ever happened to you that you cannot explain?” More often than not, a big story would emerge. She would hear the unusual events that would imply some sort of direct contact experiences. What she concluded was that over half the people who see UFOs are abductees.
Elaine Douglass
This may seem like a bold statement, but it’s very similar to what other investigators have concluded. Pioneering abduction researcher Budd Hopkins spoke openly that if someone sees a UFO they are most probably either seeing it arrive or leave, and there has been a missing time event covering an abduction. Hopkins has publicly speculated that there are probably more abductions than there are UFO sightings.
Abduction researcher Dr. David Jacobs said, “There is a reason for those UFOs in the sky, the phenomenon is far less random than we had once assumed. If people are seeing UFOs they are quite probably abductees.”
When I asked Jacobs what percentage of people who are seeing unambiguous UFOs are actually abductees, he replied, “The majority.” We discussed this and he seemed comfortable with the term majority, but he felt this was conservative and the real percentage might be much higher.
David Jacobs
Abduction researcher and hypnotherapist Yvonne Smith was asked this same question, What percentage of people who are reporting an unambiguous UFO sighting are actually abductees? She, like most everyone I’ve asked, felt it was impossible to come up with an actual percentage, but was quick to say the majority. She said, “Many of the close-up sightings will have clues that this was a probable contact experience, things like distorted or missing time, or a car engine sputtering and mysteriously stopping.”
Smith noted that someone who has seen a UFO sighting might experience nightmares, vivid dreams or recurring flashbacks in the weeks or months afterwords. She feels it is vital that any witness have access to a qualified therapist if any distressing memories emerge. Both Cero International on the West Coast and Starborn Support on the East coast could recommend resources for anyone seeking help.
When abduction researcher Kathleen Marden was asked the same question, she said she had no way of knowing what that percentage might be. But she did say, “I can tell you that 67% of the participants in the 2012 Marden-Stoner Commonalities Study stated that they consciously recalled (not with hypnosis), the observation of an unconventional craft at less than 1000 feet prior to an abduction.”
Kathleen Marden
This statistic can’t be seen as an indication of a percentage of whether or not a close encounter witnesses may have been abducted, but it is interesting. Marden also added that from her research, she feels anyone with more than one close up sighting of a craft has most probably had some sort of an abduction experience.
Joe Montaldo
Joe Montaldo is both a contactee and an abduction researcher. He runs an organization called ICAR (International Community for Alien Research) with a focus on the abduction phenomenon. Montaldo states that almost all UFO sightings are meant to be trigger memories, which are designed to let the witness know something happened.
Montaldo says, “ET never has to show himself to anybody. There is no need to ever let anyone see a craft, ever,” implying that their technology is so advanced that making their craft invisible is effortless, so if anyone actually sees a UFO it is because they want to be seen for a reason.
Montaldo went on to say, “I don’t think you can see a UFO if you’re not a contactee. Once you’ve been exposed to their telepathic fields or whatever they are, that’s how you can see them. It may not be easy [or possible] for us, but it’s easy for them.”
When asked to give a percentage of how many people who see a UFO are actually abductees, Joe said, “I’d put it at 100 percent”
Roger Marsh
Roger Marsh, Director of Communication for MUFON and also editor of their monthly journal, has been compiling and documenting UFO sighting reports gleaned from the MUFON Case Management System, which is an extensive database of witness reports. He also writes about UFOs for The Huffington Post, The Examiner and Open Minds.
When I asked Marsh this same question, “Off the top of my head, of the really good cases, I would say that maybe five percent of these would imply some sort of abduction event.” He went on to say he was judging these accounts by the written testimony of witnesses, where you sometimes get a clue like missing time within the reports. This is a much more conservative number than Montaldo’s sweeping 100 percent, but it is telling none the less. It should be noted that Marsh is not an abduction researcher like the other folks quoted here, he considers himself a UFO journalist instead.
What seems to be emerging, and this would be very difficult to quantify, is that the closer the UFO to the witness, the more likely an abduction event has occurred. The implication being that many, if not most UFO sightings have a buried abduction component.
I was working outside just after my lunch break. Out of the corner of my eye I noticed what looked to be a red-copper colored object in sky to my left. I stood up straight and really focused on the object. It appeared to have lights and a surface that reflected light off as metal does. It was also black at times as well. It appeared to hover for a while and very slowly travel on a path that changed slightly as it progressed through the sky. I have to stress one thing. The first time I noticed this thing, it was directly over the airport. My company is building condos and houses beside our cities airport and it is closed airspace. Nothing public or private can fly without authorization.
Which leads to why I was curious as to what this slow moving completely silent object was. At first I thought it to be a hot air balloon but I asked myself, “why would it be and who allowed it to fly directly over the airport and the landing strips?” That would create a chance of an airplane crashing into it or the ground. It took about 3 hours to get almost right over my head. As it was moving around and stopping during these hours, I began to notice it looked more like a metal upside down bell rather than an air balloon made from fabric. I really don’t claim to know what it is because I have never seen anything like it before. There was what looked like a bright light on it as well.
It never got any dimmer or changed color, but just stayed constant. It was completely silent as it traveled through the sky. I stopped randomly between working and tried the video recorder, but the object simply disappeared from sight. It would not show up on video. The object turned slightly as it moved but you guys tell me what this is. I couldn’t find any records of aerial pictures of city nor reports of anything happening at airport. When the object just simply disappeared and I could not see it anywhere in sky I thought this to be extremely weird. Seeing as it had taken so long to get to my location and I could see it anywhere in the horizon, it’s like it never happened really. After the object was gone, 2 army jets made multiple passes over the area. They returned then flew off again out of site only to return and do this again. I’m at a loss as to what I saw and am not discounting anything; as long as it’s realistic and logical.
The recent discovery of unexplained craters in the Russian tundra has create speculation worldwide. But this phenomena is not new. Similar events have occurred before…some within the past few years. Another incident took place in eastern Washington in 1984…then later in Norway:
Reindeer herders in Russia’s Far North have discovered yet another mysterious giant hole about 30 kilometers away from a similar one found days earlier.
Located in the permafrost of the subarctic Siberian region of Yamal, which means “end of the earth” in the local Nenets language, both craters appear to have been formed in recent years and have icy lakes at their bases.
Scientists who examined the first hole theorized that it could have been created when a mixture of water, salt and gas exploded underground, the Siberian Times news site reported.
The area, which has one of Russia’s richest deposits of natural gas, was covered by sea about 10,000 years ago, and vast salt deposits were left behind.
“Global warming, causing an alarming melt in the ice under the soil, released gas causing an effect like the popping of a Champagne cork,” the news report said, citing an expert at the Subarctic Scientific Research Center.
The first hole is estimated to be about 50 meters wide and 70 meters deep, with water from melting permafrost cascading down its sides into the icy deposit below.
The second hole is “exactly” like the first one, but “much smaller,” local lawmaker Mikhail Lapsui told the Interfax-Ural news agency. “Inside the crater itself, snow can be seen.” – The Moscow Times
One leading theory says that a pingo—an uplift of frozen ground linked to ancient Arctic lakes—may be at work here. This unique type of landform appears only in permafrost regions.
In this case, the holes could have been caused by an unusually large pingo, which have been known to explode, thanks to melting permafrost. This theory was put forth by an Australian polar scientist before the Russian team arrived at the first hole. – Slate.com
I came across the following article from Pravda in March 2004 while researching sources on ultraterrestrial underground habitation. This may be related to the ‘cookie cutter’ phenomena that is occasionally reported even though this situation doesn’t quite match those other discoveries. There have been other terra firma related anomalies as well. I have posted different scenarios for you to compare and make your own conclusions:
Ufologists suppose, aliens land on Earth to take ground samples
One morning shepherd Pyotr Malinkin took his cows out to the pasture as usual. Having gone five kilometers into the field the man was shocked to find a huge hole in the ground six meters in diameter. The pit was not on the spot the day before, it appeared overnight. The shepherd said the animals were scared to approach the hole, they did not eat the grass nearby. Specialists of the Labyrinth public group to study anomalous phenomena went to examine the wonder in the field.
Local elderly women confirmed the large hole had appeared in the field indeed. They said the hole had a perfect round shape, as if someone took a huge lump of ground with a cup. Local townsfolk built a fence around the hole not to let curious people and cows fall down in it. The hole became a local place of interest: people come to see it and picnic nearby, others take photographs against its background.
As it turned out, the pit was not round, but oval. It does not look like an excavator pit: there are no bucket tracks on its walls, nothing is seen on the meadow around either – the ground is even. The pit is smooth and vertical inside. There is some water on the bottom of the 4,5-meter deep pit.
Specialists of the above-mentioned Labyrinth group believe the hole probably appeared as a result of UFO’s activities: aliens landed their spaceship on the meadow to take ground samples. However, ufologists failed to find any evidence to prove the landing of an extraterrestrial spacecraft. Ufologists also proposed the ground hole appeared as a result of a rare inexplicable natural phenomenon. An identical phenomenon occurred ten years ago in the Ryazan region, when a huge crater reminiscent of a shell-hole appeared in the ground near the Sasovo village. Nobody was able to explain the appearance of the pit. Such hole appeared before in the Rostov and Tula regions of Russia.
Local townsfolk told Labyrinth ufologists there was a larger ground hole two kilometers far. It appeared decades ago. Elderly people say village residents used to sacrifice sacks of grain throwing them in the hole to pacify ‘something’ under the ground. During the Soviet years they used to throw branches and stones in the hole, but they never managed to cover it. Ufologists tried to find the pit, but they could not find the mysterious pit – numerous trees and bushes have grown in the field.
Local people said there was another mysterious object in their countryside. They said there is an ‘angry spring’ on the stream nearby. When a person comes to the spring to take some water, it starts ‘boiling.’ If one starts talking near the spring, the water in it boils harder and harder. There used to be a church on the spot where the spring appeared. Legends say the church went under the ground when Napoleon’s army was advancing in the region in 1812.
The Kaluga region is located on limestone soil. Ground waters can dissolve such soil, creating limestone caves, the vaults of which may tumble down at times. This can be an explanation how the village church went under the ground. It is not ruled out mysterious holes appear for the same reason – the ground was probably sucked in a limestone cave. These holes, ufologists believe, are of the terrestrial origin, although it is hard to explain why the walls of the pits are perfectly smooth and even. – Pravda
Click for video Weird news report from 1984 near Grand Coulee Dam in Eastern Washington:
No one can figure out how, but a chunk of earth weighing tons was plucked out of a wheat field, as though someone used “a giant cookie cutter,” and put down, right side up, 73 feet away. “All we know for sure is that this puzzle piece of earth is 73 feet away from the hole it came out of,” said Greg W. Behrens, a geologist with the Bureau of Reclamation at Grand Coulee Dam.
Scientists now believe that the “Cookie Cutter Phenomenon” is caused by two seismic events intersecting, creating constructive interference, and ejecting out a small chunk of earth.
Strange Happening – Scientists are baffled by big ‘mystery hole’
Two articles on the Washington state 1984 event:
No one can figure out how, but a chunk of earth weighing tons was plucked out of a wheat field, as though someone used “a giant cookie cutter,” and put down, right side up, 73 feet away. “All we know for sure is that this puzzle piece of earth is 73 feet away from the hole it came out of,” said Greg W. Behrens, a geologist with the Bureau of Reclamation at Grand Coulee Dam. The displaced slab, mostly soil held together by roots, is about 10 feet long and 7 feet wide. Its thickness varies from 2 feet at one end to about 18 inches at the other. The shape and thickness of the piece exactly match the hole that was left behind, just like a piece in a jigsaw puzzle, though it was rotated about 20 degrees. There are no marks to indicate machines were used, the Seattle Times reported Friday, and the land is fairly flat. “You’d think that, whatever the cause, the chunk would have traveled in a straight line,” said Don Aubertin, director of mining for the Colville Indians, whose reservation is near the site. However, a scientist “found where pieces had dribbled from the chunk as it moved. The dribblings traced an arc from the hole to where the chunk was found.” The site is on a farm in north-central Washington operated by Fred Timm and his sons. Two of the sons, Rick and Pete, discovered the displaced earth Oct. 18 while rounding up cattle in an area known as “haystack rocks,” where huge boulders were left by a glacier that covered the area thousands of years ago. The Timms believe the chunk was moved sometime after mid-September, when they harvested wheat in that field. There was a small earthquake in the area during that one-month period, at 8:24 p.m. Oct. 9. It measured 3.0 on the Richter scale of ground movement, and its epicenter was about 20 miles southwest of the displaced earth. However, University of Washington scientists ruled out the possibility that the quake somehow could have moved the chunk. The work of a meteorite also has been ruled out. “There was no sign of impact,” Aubertin said. “The hole was not a crater. It had vertical walls and a fairly flat bottom. It was almost as if it had been cut out with a giant cookie cutter.” But even that couldn’t have left such a hole, he added, because roots from plants in the piece that was moved still dangled from the walls of the hole, indicating they were torn apart rather than cut. Behrens wondered if bedrock could have focused the earthquake’s seismic waves on the displaced chunk.Focusing can occur, said UW geologist Stephen Malone, but it could not provide enough energy.
Washington State’s Mystery Hole
Fred Timm owns a farm on the Colville Indian Reservation in northeastern Washington. Nothing notable had happened on the farm for a month during the wheat harvest which had begun in mid-September of 1984. However, a small earthquake, 3.0 on the Richter scale did occur on October 9, 1984, at 8:24 p.m. But that event was far away, 20 miles to the southwest of the Timm farm.
So what was the explanation for the mysterious hole that Fred Timm’s sons, Rick and Pete, found on October 18, 1984? Rick and Pete were on horseback that day rounding up cattle for their father. They were next to a wheat field on the Colville Indian Reservation north of the Columbia River when they spotted something. Approaching closer, they saw a hole in the ground. The hole was 10 feet long and 7 feet wide and roughly pear-shaped. The north end of the hole was about one-and-a-half feet deep; the south end was two feet deep. Curious, the men dismounted and studied the hole and then looked around on foot. Seventy-three feet northwest of the hole was a huge chunk of earth shaped like the hole. The chunk of earth had been deposited largely intact with a counterclockwise rotation of about 20 degrees in relation to the hole. There was a scattering of fingernail-size soil particles, like “dribblings,” occasionally found on the ground across the 73-foot distance.
The Timm family contacted Don Aubertin, director of mining for the Colville Indian Tribe. Aubertin, thinking the hole had been caused by a meteorite strike, contacted Bill Utterbach. A geologist retained by the Colville Indians, Utterbach examined the area and said about the hole: “It had vertical walls and a fairly flat bottom. It was almost as though it had been cut out with a giant cookie cutter.” The estimated weight of the chunk of topsoil was 3 tons! But the massive “divot” of soil did not appear to have been cut out of the ground. There was no sign of shearing of the soil. Dangling from the walls of the cavity were roots of vegetation, not cut, but torn. The block of earth did not appear to have been dragged or rolled. Something manmade would have been needed to lift the chunk and transport it, but there were no machinery marks on the ground. Greg Behrens stepped forward. A geologist with the United States Bureau of Reclamation at Grand Coulee Dam, he examined the block of earth and the local geology. He noted that the site of the hole was over a glacial basin about 100 feet by 150 feet formed by strata that had sagged during the melting of an ancient ice pack.
Behrens wondered if the earthquake of October 9 had triggered concentric surface waves, which converging, could have ejected the soil. Stephen Malone of the University of Washington, chuckled. The 3.0 quake, 20 miles southwest of the hole, had been four miles below the surface of the earth. Malone said that if the quake displaced the earth, ” it would be the most dramatic and obvious thing ever reported that I’m aware of.” It was “very, very unlikely” that an earthquake was the culprit. Behrens admitted that his idea was stretching it. Although focusing of seismic waves does occur, “nothing this large has been documented.” He felt most geophysicists would reject his idea. So he looked for other explanations: A freak tornado ripping out the block. No, no swirling of vegetation evident. A complex freezing action causing the block to be lifted up and moved by strong winds. No, the temperature was warm at the time. A gas explosion, like methane. No, no methane in the area. A meteorite ripping the block out. No, the hole did not resemble a crater, and the block was not shattered. Clever people using a large crane excavating the block out; or people freezing the ground, excavating the block out, and sliding it 73 feet; or a helicopter to lift the mass out. H’hhmm; no, extremely expensive with no profits. As Behrens said, “Mr. Timm is quite reserved and wishes no notoriety from all of this. The area is so remote that it would never become a tourist trap.”
Perhaps not unexpected was the UFO theory. Behrens came across stories of UFO sightings from local residents. One person talked of a farmer who found a circular burned area, 30 feet in diameter, near his combine as if something had set down and scorched the ground. The Aerial Phenomena Research Organization had a report of “a meteor” in the vicinity of the hole on October 13. Local residents told Behrens that at the time of the earthquake they had felt an extreme air shock with it, much more than a sonic blast. The residents had felt ground motion after the air blast. A roar described as an approaching freight train preceded the blast with the doppler effect afterwards. Curiously, in 1979 Bruce Kaliser, Utah state engineering geologist, while doing a routine field check following a 3.5 earthquake near the Utah-Idaho border, was alerted by farmers to a mysterious hole outside Portage, Idaho. The hole was shaped like a cross and entirely undisturbed. It was about 14 feet in diameter. Each arm had two furrows, and each arm had cracks parallel to the furrows, radiating out from the center of the cross. The Idaho slab, unlike the Washington slab, was broken into pieces. To date, no one has explained the “mystery hole” of Washington. Some type of rare earthquake-related phenomenon, or ? The Cookie-Cutter Phenomenon seems to be the ultimate fortean anomaly, it cries out for some kind of simple, rational explanation, but on further consideration it’s baffling in a very thorough way.
THE COOKIE CUTTER STRIKES AGAIN…FOUR TIMES…IN NORWAY
The divot from an Andøva moor Yes, the cookie-cutter phenomenon has left its mark again: more mysterious divots and holes in the ground. T. Jo nassen has sent us a study of the phenomenon published in Ottar, a publication of the Tromse Museum, in Norway. Even better, he has provided a translation, from which we quote a few paragraphs: “About 1 km SE of Skogvollvatnet (a lake), at Skogvollmyra (a moor), a slab of turf 5.2 m long and 1.8 m wide, has, in an apparently inexplicable manner, torn itself loose from its ‘mother turf’ and placed itself 4-5 m away. The slab of turf is completely undamaged and is placed with the right side up. The piece of turf has rotated 20-30 degrees compared to the original hole. The hole in the moor is absolutely even at the bottom, and the angle between the bottom and its walls is 90 degrees. The hole is 30-35 cm deep, and its edges are nicely cut. “From the hole there is a crack running westwards for about 6 m. Close to the hole this crack is somewhat widened, and one side of the crack twists itself 25-30 cm above the other. This twisting decreases as one gets further from the hole. The crack gradually subsides, and it is hard to tell exactly where it ends. “About 12 m NW of the hole there is an arched crack of about 15 m lying with its concave side towards the hole. It is plainest in the middle. Here the side closest to the hole has been twisted upwards about 15 cm. Here also the crack gradually disappears at both ends. There is an open hollow beneath the part which has been twisted upwards, about 30 cm below the surface. One theory has lightning creating a steam explosion from underground water. If this were the case, one would expect to find some fusion of the earth and more havoc wrought to the divot. “The slab of turf has an area of about 5 m2 and this should give a weight of between 1500-1700 kg.”

*************************************************************** Strange Holes Discovered in Krasnoyarsk Region
Residents of Novoselovo district in the Krasnoyarsk region have come across a mysterious phenomenon in the field. They discovered several tunnels of unknown origin in an area located some 100 meters away from the highway connecting the cities of Krasnoyarsk and Abakan, in the vicinity of the village of Kurgany, Siberian News Agency reports.
There are about 10 holes in the field. Each hole has an entrance to a cave-like hollow place in the earth. Some of the tunnels are big enough for a person of medium height to stand up straight. According to one of the suppositions, all the underground passages are interconnected in a network. A few daredevils equipped with flashlights attempted walking across the tunnels.
Local residents have a number of theories to explain the origin of the tunnels. Some people believe the tunnels are the work of unidentified pranksters, others blame mysterious animals which reportedly dig holes in the ground. According to yet another theory, the tunnels may somehow be related to an earthquake that occurred in the area 3 years ago.
Krasnoyarsk scientists have not yet made any official statements as to the explanation of the phenomenon.
In Siberia, human groans heard from a super deep hole drilled on a plateau between the Aral and Caspian seas were recorded and sent to the Soviet Academy of Sciences for further studies. But researchers did not take the mystical phenomena seriously, and the record was lost.
Almost all religions of the planet say that there is some underground realm. At that, each religion has its peculiar description of the realm. Some elements of the description however are typical of all religions. First of all, the population of the underground realm consists of ‘masters’ and people who get there after their death. Second, people get under the surface in the form of shadows, souls and others known today as clots of information and energy fields. Third, the ‘masters’ and sometimes the souls posses unique information about the past and even about the future. To obtain this information one has either to send his soul to the underground realm like Siberian shamans do, or help the shadows become visible and audible for some time. In ancient Greece there were special rituals involving obligatory blood shed.
Esoteric experts state that the bloody rituals were first of all connected with the unique energetic and informational saturation of blood. Attempts to obtain the information possessed by the ‘masters’ of the underground world were taken in all epochs and even in the modern time.
Russian researcher Nikolay Rerich was the first to organize an expedition to the legendary area of Shambala inhabited by wise ‘teachers’ and concealed from people’s eyes under the Himalayan Mountains. He successfully conducted the expedition and brought a message from the ‘teachers’ especially for the Soviet Government. Gleb Bokiy from the People’s Commissariat of Internal Affairs (earlier the All-Russian Extraordinary Commission) also planned an expedition to the mysterious Shambala. The preparation was controlled by the Commissariat Head Felix Dzerzhinsky. When the latter died financing of the project was stopped. It is known that Germany’s Waffen SS of the Third Reich also organized expeditions to Shambala. The structure and objectives of the organization resembled so much those of the mystical orders that existed in Germany before WWII. The organization, as well as the orders, wanted to keep it secret that creatures with superhuman power existed deep under the surface.
The creatures employed meditation and self-discipline to gain power over the natural phenomena and attain the level of Gods. When Adolph Hitler, who as some researchers believe possessed extrasensory capabilities, came to power he supported the idea of a Hollow Earth and even made it official. Russian researcher of the occult magic of fascist Germany Sergey Zubkov states that race clearing in the Third Reich and organization of secret societies were meant to help the mysterious ‘masters’ out from under the surface for active participation in reorganization of the world.
SS even had a special structure for collecting mystical information of the secret societies that at that time existed in Germany and employed the information for researches aimed to create a mystical weapon for solution of war problems. The organization sent expeditions to Tibet and the Himalayas.
The first expedition searching for Shambala started in 1931. The expedition failed to discover the way to the underground world but it brought lots of Tibetan manuscripts to Germany which proved that the ‘mysterious’ masters actually existed under the surface. Later, the organization sent even more expeditions to the area. Who are the mysterious creatures living under the surface and where could they come from? President of the Association of Engineer Biolocation Vladimir Khlopkov is absolutely sure that some sentient beings live under the surface. Ten years ago, he conducted some kind of a brain storm of the planet’s interior.
The most experienced operators of the Association used biolocation frames to find the traces of intellect under the surface. The researchers said that they found out intellect at the depth of 200 kilometers under the surface. Khlopkov explained it was a strong intellect but alien to humans. It is clear that albuminous bodies cannot survive under the huge pressure of rocks and terribly high temperatures under the surface. It is highly likely that the discovered intellect is concentrated in some informational and energy clusters. Later, Vladimir Khlopkov discovered several places on the planet’s surface where the intellect probably got out on the surface.
One of the areas was in the town of Zelenograd very close to Moscow. Biolocation operators came across strange formations there during ground tests and at first called them “traces of UFO landing”. When studied closer the traces revealed coincidence with a deep break that geophysics also discovered there. Every evening operators observed a strange biological field creep out from the break and move at a speed of 90 cm per second towards Zelenograd. Little by little the field filled up the whole of the town. In some time, the field began to withdraw at the same speed back to the deep break. The entire of the cycle took about 3.5 hours. Khlopkov said that the field was reading the information in people’s memory.
In the Russian republic of Khakassia, there is the Kashkulakskaya Cave, the name means ‘the cave of a black devil’, in the Mountains of Kuznetsky Alatau. For many years, researchers from the Novosibirsk Institute of Clinical and Experimental Medicine of the Academy of Medical Sciences regularly came to the place to study the strange phenomena that occurred to people staying in the cave for a long period of time. Visitors of the cave were at regular intervals gripped with horror that made them rush to the exit. At that, those people had optical hallucinations that were the same with all people: they saw an elderly man wearing a shaggy horned cap and with his eyes sparkling.
Researchers fixed high-precision magnetometers and other appliances outside and inside of the cave; they compared the indications of the devices with the emotions experienced by people in the cave. It turned out that bursts of a higher magnetic field fixed with the devices coincided with the moments when people felt nervous. At that, devices fixed outside the cave precisely on its outline registered no changes at the time when there was a magnetic storm inside of the cave.
Some researchers participating in the experiment supposed that they came across some kind of a radio-range beacon complying with a strange program and sending signals vertically up, right into the cosmos. May it be so that the mysterious creatures living under the surface came from the space and used the signals for communication with other beings that stayed there in their home? – bdtips.com

THis is one amazing crop pattern – a spiral connected to a central sun possibly, there is definately a message in this and a very strong vibration in this intentional pattern – for those with eyes to see and time to think about it.
St.Paul, MN – 7/29/2014: I was looking up into the sky, like I usually do when I’m outside. I saw what at first I thought was a plane moving pretty fast way in the hell up there but something looked off about the shape. I went inside and grabbed my Nikon D3100 with a 55-200 MM zoom lens to get a better look.
It was moving pretty fast, think cruising speed, made no sound and was pretty high up there so it had to be a decent size.
It was moving in a straight line so is was not a drifting balloon – besides it moved too fast for that though I understand that wind speeds up there are not the same at ground level. – MUFON CMS
More mulch churned up by deer and by whatever made those 4-5 inch tracks, a strange “paw” print on the house siding, and a family even more perplexed about what’s lurking literally in their back yard–these were what fellow investigator Jay Bachochin and I found on a return to the residential site in Hartland where a woman saw a six-foot tall, upright wolf-like creature cross her back yard at 1:30 a.m. the night of July 17-18, 2014.
I invited Bachochin, founder of the WPI (Wisconsin Paranormal Investigators) to help conduct a more thorough search of the grounds. The owners also graciously invited us to use their deck for a late night stakeout. We were able to sit quietly in the dark with a perfect view of the yard, cameras at the ready, and confirmed that the eyewitness would indeed have been able to see and identify a large creature from that position. We also spent some time viewing the neighborhood by foot and by car to see just how much cover there was for a large predator — and found a surprising amount of wooded ground that would allow it to make its rounds and then escape to a freeway corridor (US Hwy 16) when ready to return to the lake-and-park-rich surrounding area.

My bosses want me fired because I believe in ghosts
A Department of Veterans Affairs cop, convinced his former New Jersey workplace is haunted by evil spirits, says the feds are using his belief in ghosts as an excuse to fire him, The Post has learned.
The spooky story pits Valdo Vaher, 48, a retired Army sergeant and former lieutenant in the New York Guard, against the VA, where he began working in 2006. Vaher, who lives in Rockland County, defiantly insists otherworldly phenomena are real.
“This seems strange to some people, but for religious Catholics like myself, many feel as I do about this — that there are spirits in the world and they sometimes show themselves and are more likely to be doing this in and around hospitals, where people suffer and die,” he told The Post.
The VA initiated a long and bitter legal battle to permanently exorcise Vaher because, it charges, he’s basically too crazy to be a cop.
At one point he actually was fired. But in 2013, a judge for the Merit Systems Protection Board in Washington ordered he be re-hired.
As part of a settlement, he was reassigned from the Manhattan VA Hospital to a facility in East Orange, NJ.
In February, he was stripped of his gun, placed on modified duty and reassigned to another New Jersey facility for “making bizarre statements and displaying unusual behaviors,” according to a letter from VA Deputy Police Chief Bernais McNeil.
Vaher was chided for giving a hair-raising talk to a rookie colleague about how their East Orange command was haunted by “evil spirits” — comments the agency suggested posed a safety risk to his co-workers and warranted his dismissal.
“You should stay away from certain areas here because there are evil spirits. I will give you some holy salts to ward off these evil spirits,” Vaher is quoted as having told the rookie.
Vaher is also alleged to have said, “Watch out for certain trees because they have faces and I just have a bad vibe with them” and “People around this area are animals.”
Vaher, who holds dual US-Estonian citizenship and who served in that country’s military, was an MP at West Point for nearly a decade and worked as a civilian observer in Kosovo for the State Department in 1998, a position that required him to brief the White House on a daily basis.
Vaher’s lawyer, Alan Wolin, accused the VA of “using psychology as a weapon, just like in the old Soviet Union” and insists the agency doesn’t stand a ghost of a chance of winning its case against him.
“They’ve been targeting him since Day One,” he said. “The bottom line is that they tried and failed to fire him twice before and we’re extremely confident we’ll win again.”
The VA formally notified Vaher this month of its latest plan to cast him out.
But Vaher still won’t back away from his claims that the VA’s East Orange site is haunted by ghostly apparitions.
“There are many people who work there who would tell you privately that there are spirits in that place and lots of them,” he said.
“There’s a lot of paranormal activity there. The police know it. The janitors know it. And the nursing people know it. They all know it — especially the people who work the night shift,” he said.
I like hiking. It’s a relaxing activity for me. I just walk over rugged terrain and think about what’s happened, what’s happening and most importantly, what’s going to happen. I’d been an avid hiker all my life, but, we moved to Kansas, my family and I. Not much opportunity for a good hike. So I always leap at the offer of going to see my cousins because they lived in Colorado and it had mountains and whatnot. I never carry a walking stick when I hike, I’m young and agile and don’t really need one.
Going on these hikes I always expected to meet at least one person, but I usually met a lot more. So you can see why I was concerned when I didn’t see a soul on the mountain. Well, I say I didn’t see anyone, but almost right when I started I saw a shoe. A size 8 women’s shoe. One shoe.
I had heard of the Vancouver feet so I hesitated to look inside for the shoe size. No severed foot. Just a shoe. But I did notice rustling leaves as I neared the shoe, shrugging it off thinking it was a bird or something. I took the shoe because I like to return things to their rightful owner. Like when I see someone drop their keys on the way out of a busy place I rush to get them to the person. I’m a nice guy. But once I picked up the shoe, I heard above me some twigs snapping and they fell to the ground. I looked up only to see the sunlight peaking through the trees. So whatever was up there was hidden by sunlight. Today was a clear day not a cloud in the sky. Beautiful. I continued on with the shoe. It’s probably good to mention I only had a pack of about 4 water bottles and a couple granola bars. So in short, not much stuff. About, 15 minutes later (I can’t measure distance with time), I found a water bottle, empty. I hate litter so I picked it up and didn’t think anything of it. Again I heard birds in the trees, they seemed to be following me.
I had gone a while and was thinking about my girlfriend and how I could tell her for the first time that I loved her, because I did and I knew she did, me. But I saw another empty shoe, a men’s size 11. I picked it up and that’s when I noticed the sun went dim. I looked up expecting clouds but that didn’t make sense it was a clear day. Instead I saw a man. In the trees. He wasn’t sitting on a branch but he was like a cat upside down as the tree would go up, clinging to it with abnormally large nails. He had a big scraggly beard, a full head of hair and a thin almost starved body. He was naked but I didn’t see anything extra, if you know what I mean. It was bare. Like a doll.
He wasn’t a doll though he was very human(ish). He didn’t act like it though. He was licking his lips as though he hadn’t eaten in weeks. He looked the part, too. Although I couldn’t see his face, I could hear him smacking his lips. I decided it wasn’t a good idea to talk to him. But he had made an effort to be noticed. I wasn’t scared for my life I was frightened at the pose he took as he landed on the ground. His arms were outstretched until his elbows bent 90 degrees to support himself with his hands. His legs were the exact same, they were abnormally positioned for legs.
He (I don’t know how else to say this) skittered towards me. His hair had always been in his face ever since the tree. But he looked up at me. His eyes were dark green all over. His nose was misshapen as if broken. His smile was big but not inhumanly big. The thing that made me fear for my life was his teeth. They were inhuman. They were pointed like a wild animal and stained red in some places and yellow in others. I dropped the shoes and booked it.
I didn’t look back, I didn’t have to, he dropped from the trees right in front of me. I did my darnedest not to run into him for fear that he’d take a chunk out of me. I slid to a stop. He let out a blood curdling howl as a coyote would once it had caught it’s prey. I assumed that wasn’t in his best interest because after that I heard shouting and the thing skittered off down the mountain then up a tree. Gone from sight. I was petrified there until the shouting came from off the trail and in front of me. The forest rangers, there were two, were barking questions at me. “Did you touch him?” “Did you talk to him?” “Did he talk to you?” All these sort of things. I said shakily, “n-no” the forest ranger had a shotgun with him and his buddy, probably his partner, had some kind handgun. I’m no expert in guns. The mountain man had made his appearance to me and from what I understand from the rangers, he won’t stop hunting. I’m not going hiking by myself again. – Reddit.com
“My neighbor, Lucia Segovia, has even had stones thrown at her house because she’s been told the midgets hide there, and that we’re concealing them,” said local resident Osvaldo Piñeyro.
Subsequent Manifestations
Next, we shall mention only a few incidents subsequent to the matters discussed in this report, which in some way reflect certain similarities both in the description of the beings observed as well as their erratic and unusual behavior.
In December 1983, in the city of Gobernador Ingeniero Valentin Virasoro in the Department of Santo Tomé, Province of Corrientes, several children reportedly saw green, one-eyed creatures in the vicinity of an abandoned house, describing them as “some 60 centimeters tall, wrinkled skin and with piercing gazes.” (6)
During the month of April 1984, several residents of Coghlan, a neighborhood to the north of Buenos Aires, claimed having had face-to-face encounters with the little men, and not only green ones. According to these reports, the creatures sighted were sometimes orange in color, and described as “cute and kindly.” (7)
In August 1988, at School No. 35 (Perito Moreno) in the city of Mar del Plata, several students of that institution claimed having seen small green men. According to their stories, midgets standing some 60 to 80 centimeters tall were seen over three or four consecutive days in the yard, on the rooftops, in the bathrooms or on the water tanks. Despite the students’ claims, school authorities paid no mind to the situation, dismissing it as childish fantasy.
That very same year in Pergamino, on October 28 and around 0:30 hours, a group of four friends witnessed the presence of several little men, describing them as follows: “They were 5 or 6 little men, some 70 centimeters tall, naked, with a single eye, hairless, moving their arms and with three fingers on their hands. They had no wrists and we could not see their feet.”
Additional Thoughts
The case of the little green men left its mark on society, serving as a trigger for subsequent reports of manifestations in various locations, as we have seen. The term even gained popularity due to the famous rock group [Los enanitos verdes] that formed in the city of Mendoza in 1979. But contrary what can be thought a priori, the group took its name from another case that occurred in Mendoza in 1979. This is how Felipe Staiti, guitarist for Los Enanitos Verdes, tells the story: “The year was 1979 and a family of tourists took a photo while visiting Puente del Inca in Mendoza. Upon developing the photo, the family noticed some little green men beside them. No one saw them when the shot was taken, but there they were after the film was developed. This event achieved notoriety and appeared in the local press, and some even say the photo was even sent to NASA to ascertain its authenticity. Whether it was a legend or fact, a journalist friend of ours christened our new group Los Enanitos Verdes of Puente del Inca, and that’s how it appeared in the first chronicle. Band members opted for the first half of the name: “Los Enanitos Verdes”, but they could just as easily have called themselves Puente del Inca.”
The media reached the scene and from there, day after day, confected reports for television news programs that kept viewers in suspense, anxious for more adventures about the reporter of the moment (8). Another aspect to be highlighted were the recent and major movie releases concerning alien beings (some of them truly successful at the national and global level) whose main characters had the characteristic of displaying the typical aspect of the small humanoid.” (9)
There are those who consider – in view of the situation described above – and the media efforts at disseminating these events in an overblown manner and with dubious intent, played a major role in firing the imagination, reflected in the eyewitness accounts, leading people to concoct suggestive stories and narratives. However, stories and narratives of “encounters with strange beings” are not exclusive to our present society or culture. A glimpse at old legends and myths from a variety of cultures should suffice to find several suggestive similarities with such fantastic apparitions.
Thus, in the same way it all started, disturbing the peace of the neighborhood, mobilizing residents and curiosity-seekers alike, creating unusual situations that were not exempt from moments of violence and lack of control, there was no further talk of the diminutive intruders one fine day, leaving behind one of the most bizarre and curious stories regarding the alleged presence of non-human beings in our midst.

(8) Tiempo magazine for 03.18.2007 made a brief summary of what went on there: “José de Zer prepared a new report for Nuevediario every day; blurry photos of the beings that must unquestionably be extraterrestrials were published in the press. A policeman patrolling the area asked for medical leave on account of having been bitten by one of these creatures. A boy saw one at the school at 72nd and 19th, and classes were called off. Even one of the school secretaries was attacked by the little man, also causing her to request leave. The news went beyond the borders. Researchers from the Swedish UFO Institute arrived to study the phenomenon, but the little men never turned up and the Swedes had all of their equipment stolen (could it have been a little man?). Others took the opportunity to make a little money, like Loco Córdoba, who sold little dolls of “Luciano el Marciano” (Lucian the Martian). Founders of the LUS cult were not to be left behind and called a press conference to say that they had sustained direct communications with “the captain of the spacecraft” and that they were “time travelers.” The cult’s leader, one Andrade, had no luck with his pronouncements. He was prosecuted by the law for defamation of character. People began to lose faith in the little green men. As the phenomenon ran out of steam over time, Jose de Zer went to find UFOs at Mount Uritorco. Loco Córdoba didn’t sell another doll, and no one went camping or spoke again of Martians or midgets in Villa Montoro.”

The witness was touring the property designed by architect Julia Morgan for newspaper magnate William Randolph Hearst and was taking photographs about 11:15 a.m. on July 25, 2014. Two days later while reviewing images on a computer, the witness noticed an anomaly in one photograph.
“One picture of the towers on the front of the Hearst mansion had a bird flying in it so I zoomed in to look at the bird and noticed an unidentifiable object towards the top of the picture,” the witness stated. “It does not have wings and appears to be a ‘typical’ flying saucer type object. I did not notice this object when I was actually taking the pictures and no one in my family noticed it that day which leads me to believe it was not making any sound or was too high to be heard.”

A Wright County, MO, radio station employee filed a report for a local listener who experienced a recent cattle mutilation, according to July 28, 2014, testimony in Case 58460 from the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) witness reporting database.
“He checks his cattle every day and the other day one of his calves were missing from the herd,” the reporting witness stated. “He couldn’t find it that day, but the next day he noticed a buzzard and went to that area and found the calf in a creek bed.”
The witness described the animal’s condition.
“All the internal organs were gone. It was drained of all blood and there was nothing left but hide and bones. He said there was a smell like a butcher shop has.”
Hearing of other animal mutilations in the area, the rancher has relocated his herd.
“He moved all his herd to another area and has sold all the calves he could as he heard that his neighbor has lost 15 calves the same way this calf has died.”
Wright County is located in the southern portion of Missouri, population 18,815. The incident occurred on July 15, 2014.

Don Berliner, former NICAP investigator and director of the mostly dormant Fund For UFO Research, has some ideas on how to jump-start a sober re-evaluation of The Great Taboo that doesn't involve new research: Declassify all the Project Blue Book files (yes, some are still censored more than 40 years later), assemble a team of independent credentialed scientists to render evaluations on the true unknowns, case by case, and air them out in the contemporary public arena. No doubt the effort would run into some bucks, but the cases would come from official government files. And non-government panelists wouldn't likely shy away from criticizing the slipshod work of another federal agency.
De Void rarely features guest bloggers, but at 84, Berliner merits some space here, meager though it be. So here's Don:
Why not use original government data to get it right the second time around?/CREDIT: paranormalknowledge.com
For the past several decades, the private UFO community hasn't moved one inch closer to solving the greatest mystery of the past century. Even worse, we've lost almost all our ability to influence the opinions of members of the scientific community, the mainstream media and most of the governments of the world.
We reached our peak in the mid-1960's when the 14,000-member National Investigations Committee on Aerial Phenomena (NICAP), under the inspired leadership of Donald Keyhoe and Richard Hall, had established highly effective relationships with those vital elements of our society. The media, in particular, regularly came to NICAP for facts and guidance. Today, with two national organizations each collecting more than 500 UFO/UAP reports a month, it would be hard to find a reporter who has any clue that such is happening, with the result being that the public has no idea that strange craft are still being seen.
NICAP's facts were produced by the highly qualified and experienced members of carefully selected investigative sub-committees who went out into the field to find out what had actually happened, not to reinforce anyone's preconceived opinions nor to add to anyone's collection of allegedly unexplained events.
There are changes that can be made to improve the situation:
1. Get rid of "UFO", which to most people means "flying saucer," and that means alien spacecraft. In other words, "UFO" is a conclusion, when it should be no more than a starting point. A replacement is ready and waiting: "UAP," meaning Unexplained Aerial Phenomena. Many of the scientists in the private UFO community have been using this for years.
2. Get rid of "Ufology" and "Ufologist," which strongly imply that the collecting of information and the subsequent study of it constitute a science. It will remain no more than a hobby until we make drastic changes in the way we view the subject and our own involvement.
3. While we're at it, let's add "sincere" to our list of words to be dropped. The category of people most needing to be considered sincere is "con-artist." And while we certainly aren't suggesting that more than an occasional sighting witness deserves to be in that group, using it to describe someone who hasn't been subjected to an extensive background investigation is passing judgement on the basis of emotion, rather than logic.
4. Stress the need for field investigators having advanced educations and/or practical experience in appropriate scientific fields. By including hobbyists and "saucer fans," we are actively discouraging the participation of the very people we need most. Imagine a curious scientist joining a field investigation, only to find himself working alongside someone who is in serious danger of flunking freshman chemistry. The scientist won't be back, while the marginal student will.
5. Forget about trying to influence the U.S. Congress as a way to force the release of a large quantity of withheld government information. Members of Congress lack both the will and the motivation needed to risk their jobs over an issue that promises little beyond embarrassment. Let's face it: one of the easiest ways to replace a sitting member is to accuse him of believing in flying saucers. He or she may be able to withstand personal attacks based on financial or sexual misconduct, but not on something viewed by peers as suggesting a serious lack of common sense.
6. Start using the Hynek "Strangeness/Credibility Scale" to pin-point UFO/UAP reports having the potential for adding to the accumulated knowledge of UFOs/UAPs. Cramming filing cabinets with sightings of meandering night lights amounts to nothing more than wasting time on trivia. It is the quality of cases that will eventually pay off, not the quantity.
7. Perhaps the biggest step we can take in the near-term is to stop behaving like the mystery has been solved and all that remains is to lay out the evidence for the ignorant masses to absorb. In fact, the UFO mystery has not been solved, nor will it be until we have acquired proof, not merely debatable evidence. Just because we haven't been able to come up with logical, non-alien explanations for hundreds of baffling cases doesn't mean that there aren't any. Maybe we have overlooked something subtle that could change the picture.
Just what will constitute proof?
1. Clear, sharp photographs that can be scientifically verified and which show sufficient detail so that they could not possibly be of anything terrestrial.
2. Government documents that can be scientifically confirmed as original (not photocopies), and which include specific information whose authenticity can be checked.
3. Physical evidence such as obviously unusual debris from one or more crashes, whose origins can be traced with confidence and whose properties do not resemble anything found on Earth. The professional scientists or scientific organizations doing the analyses must be willing to sign their names to any reports.
We aren't going to get any of the above by sending out "saucer fans" to interview people who claim to have seen funny lights. We have to start taking the mystery as a serious challenge, and not as entertainment or a way to attract attention to ourselves.
We were told by experts like Carl Sagan, who recently passed, that Earth is too far out in the 'boonies' of our galaxy to merit attention by E.T.s, but he was dead wrong, before he died.
Earth is, and always has been, a crossroads for many highly technological lifeforms. The mean-spirited ones, now doing salvage, are the vestigial remnants of a union that donated their DNA to set up this rare jewel of a preserve.
THAT'S why our planet looms so rare, among millions of other barren worlds, that we now discern in the Universe.
I used to firmly believe that we as predators were at the very top of the food chain.
Then, others who also claimed to be abductees, some of whom I met through Budd Hopkins and his house "get-togethers," told me horror stories about abductions.
They had seen, met on-board craft, an alien race, frightening beings who radiated rage and hatred, reptilian alien overlords of many alien races who abduct humans and who pilot UFOS.
Muscular, winged, sentient, highly technological, upright standing to seven or eight feet tall, sentient UFO monitor lizard reptilians who looked upon us, as we fancied veal.
You see, these abductees had somehow also gleaned what reptoids regular diets consisted of..
Some even admitted to have pierced another horrid 'truth' that they had gleaned:
We are already cocooned within a matrix, elusive and revealing, far from "reality", and please, "Pay no attention to the Reptilian, behind the curtains!"
It was a chilling story I was to hear repeatedly echoed elsewhere.
It re-framed correctly, at least to my mind, what the true M.O. (modus operandi) was, behind this particular alien type and its interaction/visitations with mankind.
We are a 'delectable' chosen people', a harvest-able 'crop' farmed throughout the Universe, with the same impunity that we humans, assert animal husbandry rights over all other creatures, on this preserve, that we call, "Earth".
Stunning, is how blind UFO "skywatchers" and media are simply focused on documenting, reporting only craft and not ever the occupants within, and their intents, motives and tactics, surely an alien- Jedi- mind- trick, at work.
At Bud Hopkin's house, reptilians ate humans and we sipped tea and cookies, discussing it.
It put one in mind of a classic Twilight Zone episode called,"To Serve Man", which neatly summed up man's importance in the galaxy as a main course, not just a mere condiment.
But you and I, reader, should not worry as our flesh by now is too tough, old and tainted with age.
Helmeted with their God masquerade, in the Bible, and fed manna to improve taste, as we feed beef corn for a richer texture in steaks, we are food for thought!
It makes one want to change eating habits, to make an apparent moral decision and assume a vegetarian diet and not ever atavistically revert, despite the fact that we too have mouths intended by evolution to tear flesh, well equipped by nature with excellent meat-tearing incisors.....and fangs.
I had never 'imagined' such creatures!
My abduction recalls were of almost-friendly entities who were masters of illusions, ones who tested me in mind-imposed scenarios of moral dilemmas.
Small job-beings did the kidnapping and answered to taller Greys.
They were tall, white like a refrigerator, flat like a Gumby cartoon character and spoke mind-to-mind.
Extremely controlling and highly psychic, they worked for and answered to reptilian beings.
Were they "evil"?(Earthfiles.com)
Evil is as evil does: kidnapping, rape, telepathic attack, insidious omnipresent micro-managing of our emotions, energies and sexuality through implant drains, treating us as though we were guinea pigs, orchestrating joys, disasters and horrors into our lives to milk us of energy; isn't that enough of a definition?
Evil's unholy three criteria are herein satisfied: predatory, sinister and self-justifying, with these overlord reptilian entities.
I must remind sanguine abductees, who glibly relish, "contactee" as a more apt label, that these entities do not knock on the noonday door and politely ask if you'd "care to be 'abducted', if you've nothing else to do, just now?"
Taken body and spirit, wrapped in REMs, we are instead considered a product, not a sentient entity race worthy of respect and dignity and mutual non-interference..
These farmer- thieves, highly technological and uncannily canny, are very highly psychic.
I wish their morals matched their technology; if it did, they'd be better angels, but as it is, we are saddled mind, body and spirit, and they are a curse, upon the Earth.
These are the demons of the third century, abducting, controlling, nighttime, bedroom visitors, negative-thought entities, who pilot/frequent alien craft UFOs, who view us as their property.
We are, in R.E.M.s, taken, wrapped in a cocoon of delusional vivid screen memories, and kept on this short psychic leash, to be marched around a craft in dulled awareness and suggestive amnesia.
Returned to bed,one later recalls a snippet of an odd, 'dream'.
The best game-keeper never let the creatures within, suspect that it is, indeed, a preserve.
Reptilians are Hollow-Earth, inter dimensional, time-traveling, highly technological beings, whose planet we goof about, unaware of whose image we truly were created in.
Has this been going on from the beginning of time?
Alien reptilians, are as native and terrestrial to our planet as are thunderstorms; they are the game wardens of this preserve, that we call 'Earth, masters of the Universe, both inter dimensional, as well as, inter galactic.
They use the same astral dimension that ghosts and demons use to enter and exit our physical reality.
The lower Earth animal forms seen as reptiles, amphibians, insects are mirrored and echoed by the higher technological forms which have been seen aboard craft who have lent their DNA to create this preserve.
We , too, are constructs of their creative meddling.
When people ask them,"Where are you from?" Where do you come from?", they are often told,"We come from within."
That is, after physical abductions, their possessing energies are deposited, not unlike the lamprey parasites that they are, within the multi layered human psyche/mind.
Could our minds offer protection?
By virtue of the unexpected result, the appearance of a saurian monstrously tall reptilian in the center of my living room who radiated a loathsome palpable rage and hatred, shortly after I tried using a mind-weapon psychic technique, I determined that I would never remotely try any anti-reptilian mental exercise tool again!
(However, a skilled TEAM might en masse bring forth most marvelous results...)
The unused power of our minds is part of the raw quantum physics of the universe and it has latent powers, both miraculous and awesome, as seen in this power flexing exercise that back-fired.
But it brought against me almost immediate retaliation most awful, which underlined its potential efficacy.
Are you capable of being as foolhardy as I was?
With your eyes closed, visualize an alien craft, a disc-shaped or cigar- shaped large UFO, and see it in your mind's eye, perched or flying above our planet or high within our skies, many miles overhead.
Visualize all quadrants of this very large craft, full of overlord reptilians and subservient greys, all busy at machinery; study the tiers and levels of it in full detail for a full half-minute.
Visualize that a force from your mind sharply hits the ship; jar the craft violently and then toss it into another section of space, like a football, end over end.
Clearly see it hurled across a short distance in space, at a tilted pitched angle and visualize/ imagine all entities onboard now suddenly very startled and frightened.
I augmented this visualization, used a quick head tilt to accentuate my strong mental suggestion of the craft's jump.
Distracted elsewhere, I had totally forgotten about this experimental exercise within a half-hour.
But then a creature from a nightmare appeared and changed my life.
A Mothman-like reptilian, a scaled, ceiling-high saurian being semi materialized.
(Earthfiles.com)
Without moving I was suddenly warmed by a massive smoldering feeling of hatred; it surrounded me with menace as though I were near a hot radiator.
Its reddish/yellow eyes radiated a palpable loathing and rage, which amazed and awed me rather than frightened me as I had lost my senses to surprise..
Half monitor lizard, half man, it telepathed an overpowering sense of malice which stopped me in awe. I was much too surprised to feel fear.
The creature vanished after a full 10 seconds.
Later, days and weeks later in my life, that saurian vendetta surely and without question manifested a series of horrid and painful accidents which seemed later to underline the smoldering, tangible hatred and rage that it had radiated towards me.
Emergency surgeries involving neck discs which had completely pinched my spinal cord , and soon after, a drive-by automobile hit and run which had shattered my knee and had nearly almost killed me.
In retrospect, those agonies and sudden misfortunes were not worth the risk of what was, after all, a very foolhardy experiment.
But I couldn't help but wonder how just a single human mind could be such a powerful weapon/tool; it can remotely control unseen overhead alien craft that do indeed respond to powerful telepathic messages.
I later couldn't help but wonder what a highly skilled group of focused minds, an orchestra of minds in unison, might also be able to accomplish.
We are, perhaps, not as helpless against these creatures and their machines, as everyone thinks we are..
America, The Cause and Solution to UFO Research: Jacques Valle to the Rescue
You are here:Home/Paranoia/Aliens/ America, The Cause and Solution to UFO Research: Jacques Valle to the Rescue
The problem with American UFO Research: Jacques Vallee has a Solution
At 1am eastern on July 28th, 2014 we all were able to tune in to one of the most important 2 hours of the year in talk radio, in my opinion of course. George Knapp, long time weekend host for the overnight juggernaut we know and love as Coast to Coast Am, had Jacques Vallee on as a special guest. Jacques sounded well, upbeat and as always full of knowledge that you will not find at your local conference or internet radio show and realistically not on my weekly show either but, we can dare to dream. The fact is if you had to create your own version of a Mount Rushmore of UFO/UAP researchers mine would have Jacques Vallee on it 4 times. You didn’t really expect me to rattle off 3 other researchers did you? It is a fantasy Mount Rushmore and mine will have the same person on it that I know for a fact is not in the field of research for fame, big money or fabulous prizes. The man is a venture capitalist, need I go further in dispelling any idea he is here for money? No? Good. As for the fame and fabulous prizes, he has already had that 40 years ago. I don’t need to go into detailed defenses on a mans credibility because Jacques Vallee is the only one for sure that is not lying to me.
American UFO research is predicated on a few things and one of which that holds up the entire field is the propriety of collected data. That’s right, the data that various research organizations, feel free to name your own alphabet soup group if you wish to fill in the blank, is locked away for safe keeping or worse minimized. Why? Well, there are various legalities that can be trotted out about how it’s a step to protect the abductee/witness which is of course necessary. What happens next is a side effect that not many intended and has been perpetuated for decades. The data dies a slow death in a hard drive or folder creating what I call a Mind Cemetery, literally. The events, ideas, thoughts, feelings and facts get hidden from the world. Most importantly, other research organizations.
When I call the data from cases collected proprietary then I mean it becomes theirs to do so as they wish. Most organizations, big & small alike hold onto the data for the purpose up pitching it to a production company as a way to get more exposure/interest/memberships. In the cases of individual researchers it seems that the case data slides right into whatever narrative that researcher is promoting. This is where it gets greasy. This is the breeding ground of the mentally disturbed, ever vigilant, never questioning and always praising… fan or the long version fanatic. Now, a symbiotic relationship exists that must be feed, nurtured to grow bigger and inevitably less intelligent, like a mindless rabble. It pays well to have a big tent. It pays well to play to an already paranoid base by blaming the same Gub’ment boogy-man. It’s safe and we all hate the boogy-man.
The solution that Jacques Vallee spoke of is simple: Develop an international database, Yes this means you too America.
A one-stop shop internet database of every piece of digital or soon to be digitally converted data from all UFO/UAP research organizations in America. Lofty? More like impossible. With the field the way it is now and the same old language being used it’s looking more and more like researchers using Unidentified Aerial Phenomena are on the right track. The less people who keep using pseudoscience labels such as Ufologist the better. Change the language, open the faults and increase the collective knowledge. Forget the fantasy of Disclosure. That ship has sail and caught fire like a viking funeral. If any alien visitor et al. wanted to let you know they were here they would do so themselves. Asking a congressperson to watch a DVD and then bring it to the floor for discussion is career suicide in/out of election years. These things we know to be obvious but, for some reason the band plays on. Propriety.
Ask, Why?
Ask your favorite UAP research organization, be it one you are in or one you follow closely, because they gained your trust. Is this organization willing to participate in an international data base? If not, why? I bet you hear about witness/abductee confidentiality concerns which are very real and should not be taken lightly. That is unless you get some cash flashed at you then the books come flying open. That was proven the fact with a highly popular organization and an independent space pioneer. Notice how the concerns for the public’s best interests melt away with cool cash. I leave it up to the community, the culture that we have right now and the people most interested in the subject to call their local researcher tell them you want your case to be apart of a national database like Jacques Vallee has discussed. I understand the server requirements, logistics and such need to be worked out. They get worked out a lot sooner the more interest that comes Jacques Vallee’s way.
Be proactive and push the UAP researchers as individuals and organizations to work with Jacques Vallee.
Jacques Vallee is worthy of the communities trust.
De enkele-oorspronghypothese of Out of Africa-theorie is een recent model om het ontstaan van de moderne mens te verklaren. De moderne mens zou in Afrika zijn ontstaan en na vertrek uit Afrika de plaats hebben ingenomen van de ‘archaïsche’ mensen, die allemaal uitgestorven zijn.
Volgens de Australische historicus Greg Jefferys is het uit-Afrikamodel een mythe, die inmiddels volledig is ontkracht door genetici. Een recente studie van Anatole A. Kljosov en Igor L. Rozhanskii laat zien dat mensen een ‘gemeenschappelijke voorouder’ hebben die ‘niet noodzakelijkerwijs uit Afrika komt’. Het is nooit bewezen dat deze voorouder in Afrika leefde, aldus de onderzoekers.
Tijdens het onderzoek naar 7556 verschillende haplotypen troffen de wetenschappers geen Afrikaanse genen aan. Door de afwezigheid van Afrikaanse genen is het bijna onmogelijk om een link met Afrika te leggen. Volgens de onderzoekers is er genoeg reden om de Out of Africa-theorie te herzien en is het aannemelijker dat zowel Afrikanen als niet-Afrikanen afstammen van een gemeenschappelijke voorouder.
De onderzoekers merken op dat geen van de 400 niet-Afrikaanse deelnemers tijdens het project positief testte op de 13 ‘Afrikaanse’ subcladen van haplogroep A. Het is dus onwaarschijnlijk dat de voorouder van de mens in Afrika leefde.
Wetenschappers hebben vastgesteld dat minstens 20 procent van het menselijk DNA afkomstig is van andere hominide soorten die niet zijn geclassificeerd als Homo sapiens, waaronder de neanderthaler, Homo denisova, archaïsche Homo sapiens, Homo erectus en zelfs ‘Hobbit’ (Floresmens).
Genetisch gezien is de mens een hybride die niet afstamt van jager-verzamelaars uit Afrika. Uit recente sequencing van genomen blijkt dat leden van verschillende oude mensachtige groepen, waaronder ook een nog onbekende menselijke voorouder, meer dan 30.000 jaar geleden geslachtsgemeenschap hadden. “Er waren vele hominide populaties,” aldus geneticus Mark Thomas van het University College London.
In het DNA van de Denisova-mens hebben Amerikaanse wetenschappers onlangs genetische sporen van een mysterieuze mensensoort ontdekt. Uit de DNA-fragmenten blijkt dat deze soort geslachtsgemeenschap had met andere mensachtigen die 30.000 jaar geleden in Azië leefden, maar niet tot de neanderthalers of Homo sapiens behoorden.
VIDEO: Duitsland in de ban van reusachtige graancirkel
Vele duizenden mensen worden naar een mysterieuze graancirkel in het Duitse Beieren getrokken. De formatie, die afgelopen week werd ontdekt in de gemeente Raisting, heeft een diameter van 75 meter en bestaat uit drie ringen.

De graancirkel werd gespot vanuit een luchtballon, waarna het nieuws zich als een lopend vuurtje verspreidde op internetfora, meldt Bild. “Ze zongen, dansten, speelden gitaar en sliepen zelfs in het weiland,” aldus een lokale bewoonster over de bezoekers.
Veel bezoekers geloven dat de graanformatie niet is gemaakt door mensen, meldt de Süddeutsche Zeitung. “Dit is een technologie die we nog niet onder de knie hebben,” vertelde één van de bezoekers aan de krant. “Ze willen ons laten zien dat ze hier zijn en dat ze van ons houden.”
De graancirkel ligt vlak bij een oud-communicatiestation dat in 1969 werd gebruikt om de eerste maanlanding uit te zenden in Europa.
Christoph Huttner, de boer die eigenaar is van de grond, zei dat hij de graancirkel niet heeft gemaakt. “Dit is erg moeilijk om te doen,” zei hij. “Ik weet niet hoe ze dit hebben gedaan. Er zijn geen bandensporen te zien, helemaal niets.” De schade bedraagt een paar honderd euro.

Schotland maakt een grote kans om tegen 2018 de eerste Britse basis voor ruimteveren te huisvesten. Dat schrijft de BBC. Het Britse ministerie weerhield acht potentiële locaties voor haar ruimtehaven - de eerste in zijn soort buiten de VS - en zes daarvan liggen in Schotland.
Het nieuws werd bekendgemaakt tijdens de Farnborough Airshow. "Ruimtehavens zullen de laatste barrière voor commerciële ruimtevluchten doorbreken", zei viceminister van Begroting Danny Alexander tijdens zijn speech.
De minister benadrukte de band die Schotland met de ruimtevaart heeft. "We vierden Neil Armstrongs Schotse afkomst toen hij als eerste man naar de maan ging en vorige week nog was een Schots bedrijf verantwoordelijk voor de bouw van de eerste satelliet van het UK Space Agency." UKube-1 werd gebouwd door de firma Clyde Space uit Glasgow en werd succesvol gelanceerd voor een testvlucht vanuit Kazachstan.
De Schotse regering juicht het nieuws toe. "Enkel de Schotse onafhankelijkheid zou tot een nog grotere ontwikkeling van de groeiende ruimtevaartindustrie leiden", klinkt het.
Toerisme Mogelijke locaties voor de eerste Britse ruimtehaven zijn in Schotland Stornoway Airport, Kinloss Barracks, RAF Lossiemouth, RAF Leuchars, Glasgow Prestwick Airport en Campbeltown Airport en in Engeland Llanbedr Airport en Newquay Cornwall Airport.
De eerste Britse ruimtehaven zal in eerste instantie vooral dienen als een faciliteit voor satellietlanceringen. Maar de Britse regering hoopt dat het ook een centrum wordt voor nieuwe toeristische initiatieven van Virgin Galactic en XCor, die van plan zijn ruimtevluchten aan te bieden voor een betalend publiek.
Uit cijfers van de overheid blijkt dat de ruimtevaartsector een van de snelst groeiende industrieën is in het Verenigd Koninkrijk. De sector levert jaarlijks meer dan 11 miljard pond (13,8 miljard euro) op voor de Britse economie en stelt 34.000 mensen tewerk - een stijging van bijna negen procent sinds 2011. De ministers hopen tegen 2030 tien procent van de globale ruimtevaartmarkt in handen te hebben, wat 100.000 bijkomende banen zou kunnen opleveren.
Elon Musk, de oprichter en directeur van het Amerikaanse ruimtevaartbedrijf SpaceX, wil in de toekomst de planeet Mars koloniseren. Dat vertelde de zakenman in 'The Colbert Report', de talkshow van Stephen Colbert.
Musk is tevens medeoprichter van betaaldienst PayPal en van Tesla Motors, dat elektrische auto's produceert. Tegenwoordig profileert hij zich als pionier op het gebied van commerciële ruimtevaart.
Een van zijn doelen is om over twee tot drie jaar tijd mensen met zijn Dragon 2-ruimteschip naar het internationale ruimtestation ISS te brengen, maar daar blijft het wat de 43-jarige ondernemer betreft niet bij. "We willen mensen naar Mars brengen", zei Musk donderdag in 'The Colbert Report'. "Dat zou het grootste avontuur ooit zijn."
"Mars heeft nog wat werk nodig" Kolonisatie van Mars is volgens hem van essentieel belang voor de mensheid. De geboren Zuid-Afrikaan is vol vertrouwen. "Ik zie Mars als een planeet die nog wel wat werk nodig heeft. Het is niet makkelijk, maar op termijn is het mogelijk om van Mars een planeet als de aarde te maken."
Het is goed mogelijk dat er oude fossielen afkomstig van de aarde op het maanoppervlak liggen te wachten op hun ontdekking. Dat beweren alvast wetenschappers van de Britse University of Kent.
Meteorieten die op aarde worden teruggevonden, ontstaan vaak door inslagen op de maan, of bijvoorbeeld op het oppervlak van Mars. Zo is er de Marssteen ALH 84001, die sporen van fossiele bacteriën vertoont, al is daar onenigheid over tussen wetenschappers. Maar het kan ook omgekeerd, dat er na een inslag op aarde stenen met aardse fossielen op de maan terechtkomen. De vraag die onderzoeker Mark Burchell van de universiteit van Kent zich echter stelde, was of fossielen in gesteente wel zouden kunnen 'overleven' in de ruimte.
Daarom simuleerde hij met zijn onderzoeksteam de inslag van aards gesteente op het maanoppervlak. Daarvoor mengde hij de stenen met water, bevroor het goedje en schoot het met een door gas aangedreven pistool in een grote zak water. De kracht van het pistool moest de impact van een meteoriet op de aarde simuleren, die daardoor de ruimte wordt ingeschoten, waarna de slag in het water de inslag op het maanoppervlak voorstelde.
Succes Uit de experimenten bleek dat geen enkele van de fossielen de inslag volledig 'overleefde' en dat er steeds minder fragmenten van overbleven naargelang de snelheid van de inslag de hoogte inging (tot 5 kilometer per seconde). Maar ook al vinden we enkel het kleinste deeltje terug, dan is dat al een succes, zegt Burchell.
Het voordeel van fossielen op de maan zou zijn dat ze ondanks de inslagsnelheid beter bewaard kunnen zijn dan die op aarde, aangezien onze planeet geologisch veel actiever is. "Er is een grote kans dat wanneer je fragmenten zou vinden op de maan, er dingen inzitten die we nog nooit gezien hebben." Toch blijft het voorlopig afwachten. Stukken aarde kunnen onze planeet maar moeilijk verlaten door de dichte atmosfeer en de grote aantrekkingskracht.
De volgende keer dat u naar de hemel kijkt en een satelliet ziet passeren, bedenk dan dat het om een onbestuurbaar Russisch ruimtetuig gevuld met seksueel actieve gekko's kan gaan.
De hagedissen werden op 18 juli samen met fruitvliegjes en champignons de ruimte ingestuurd bij wijze van experiment. Donderdag meldde de Russische ruimtevaartorganisatie echter dat het ruimtetuig niet meer reageerde op haar bevelen.
Ondertussen hebben de Russen nog wel gegevens van de satelliet doorgekregen en blijkbaar zijn de gekko's (vier vrouwtjes en een mannetje) nog steeds erg druk bezig met hun 'werk'. Het experiment met de reptielen is immers volledig geautomatiseerd en gaat voorlopig dus gewoon door.
Wetenschappers hebben al video's van de seksueel actieve dieren kunnen bekijken volgens Al Jazeera. Ze hopen op het einde van de rit, na zestig dagen is dat, alle beestjes alsnog levend te recuperen.
Maar daarvoor moet wel de communicatie met de satelliet tijdig hersteld worden, anders komen de gekko's niet alleen zonder voedsel te zitten maar zijn ze gedoemd om na enkele maanden samen met het ruimtetuig neer te storten.
Ook vorig jaar kreeg het Russische ruimtevaartprogramma af te rekenen met een gelijkaardig incident. Toen stortte de Bion-M satelliet neer met vissen en muizen aan boord.
Dus als u naar de hemel kijkt, doe dan toch maar dat schietgebedje voor die arme gekko's...
