EXCLUSIVE: Another “Dublin UFO” Hoax Underway Against the Media?
Who’s Pranking Whom? Why Ireland and Why Triangular UFOs? AUSTIN - It’s like déjà vu all over again … remember back in October 2008 when we broke the story of how someone in Ireland’s media had been convinced that a then recent UFO sighting flap (which featured an apparent triangle ufo with a red laser caught with cellphone video footage) was connected to this amazing footage of a triangle ufo with red laser darting about but which turned out to be reused footage of an award winning model from a UFO hoax contest? Well it appears that someone has yet again pulled the wool over the media’s eyes. I was just made aware of some “dramatic new triangular ufo footage” and as soon as I saw it I recognized it as … Read entire article »

Quote of the day
(The National Counter Terrorism Center has) “access to all the databases of all the agencies. There is total sharing. But I’m concerned that they don’t have the easy ability to draw linkages between the various databases… It’s not clear to me that at the National Counter Terrorism Center today… (the computer system) will automatically cross search all the intelligence and law enforcement databases it has. I want to find out whether that exist and I’m afraid that it doesn’t.” – Senator Joe Lieberman on NPR Morning Edition with Renee Montagne this morning, doing a heck of a job beating the dead scare-monger horse before he’s bothered to gather the facts. (Italicized emphasis is Senator Lieberman’s emphasis, bold is mine.) … Read entire article »

CNN reports on “The future of brain-controlled devices”
Photo from: http://www.joystiq.com Of course CNN talks about the applications suggested in big budget sci-fi movies like Avatar and the Matrix, and the perfunctory various medical applications. But to be honest, if it follows the course of other technologies, I see the first practical commercial applications of the technology being applied to porn or games (or porn games, like these, because I’m betting the Japanese will be the first to make it work anyway). In fact,the manufacturers of the Emotiv Epoc claim to already have a device that allows the user to control games with their mind. How well this device actually works though hasn’t quite been established yet, with those viewing demos of the tech often less than impressed. But this is how the technology will end up being developed; by … Read entire article »

Thursday ghost stories
Howdy all, and happy Thursday! I know that I’ve been out of the loop for the last couple of weeks. After my trip back home to visit family, I needed some time to recuperate. Then I threw myself into some writing about some family experiences and ghost stories that I hoped would be my next Thursday column. Unfortunately another Thursday came and went without my being able to complete a very personal segment of the story about my own experiences, at a very young age, coming to terms with the unexpected, and still unexplained, death of a beloved uncle. Then I remembered, the Thursday blog post isn’t supposed to be about that! Thursday posts are supposed to be low pressure posts. Something fun to pass the time with while taking a break … Read entire article »

This is a nice game… for me to THURSDAY ON!
So, we missed the “because it’s Thursday” feature last week. Sorry about that. I had a whole thing on weird law enforcement planned, but I read Mack’s articles on the tasering of grandmothers and thought to myself “this is too serious an issue to dilute with frivolous arrest stories.” But this week we’re back, and leading off with the neatest free, educational game I’ve seen in a while; Wolf Quest. I mean, where else are you going to find a game that encourages kids to “harass grizzly bears with your mate” and pee on things? You can check out the promotional video here. Now, on to the pre-empted police insanity; it seems that cops in Ohio really have too much time on their hands. I mean you’d think that with a failing economy, … Read entire article »

Roadside Torture: Official Policy of Travis Co. Sheriff’s Dept.
SPECIAL REPORT from Mack White I defy anyone to watch this video (above) and give me one good reason why Travis County Deputy Chris Bieze was justified in Tasering a 72-year-old grandmother during a traffic stop. Yes, she was argumentative. Yes, she failed to comply with the officer’s order. But does this justify use of the Taser? Originally, Tasers were intended to be used by police only in situations where a gun might otherwise be used–that is, in situations where lives might be in danger. Rule of thumb: If a situation doesn’t require a gun, it shouldn’t require a Taser. And yet, increasingly, police are using the Taser not in dangerous situations, but simply to enforce compliance. … Read entire article »

Dragon’s bite is venomous
It’s long been believed that the bite of the Komodo dragon was lethal because of the potent stew of bacteria found living in their mouths. But, as it turns out, the dragon’s bite would prove lethal even if the beasties brushed, flossed, and rinsed daily. Australian researcher Brian Fry located the big lizard’s venom glands via magnetic resonance imaging, and then successfully extracted them from a terminally ill dragon at the Singapore Zoo. Although the poison elicits a variety of reactions, the deadly combo seems to be a drop in blood pressure and an anti-clotting agent that causes the victim to bleed out, resulting in a victim too lethargic to resist the dragon’s attacks. Read more about it here. … Read entire article »

Dr. Katherine Albrecht Speaks on Microchips at Brave New Books
Every Tuesday over at Anomaly Television is “Science & Technology Tuesday” when I and my friend Floyd Anderson post the latest videos related to those topics. Well last Monday night Brave New Bookstore featured an important speaker (whose radio show I sometimes carry at Anomaly Radio). Dr. Katherine Albrecht is the leading expert in America fighting for your and my freedom from rampant surveillance society, prison planet, techno tracking and taxation. She was just here in Central Texas to fight the new MANDATORY pet-chipping happening just down the road in San Marcos. I went to the bookstore event hoping to catch her lecture, show my support and maybe even finally meet her face to face. However, the event was so successful that I took one look around, saw no place … Read entire article »

JDW) Gary McKinnon Is Right Guest Article By Harv Howard Does anyone with any knowledge about space hardware and our government’s denial of UFOs believe that we don’t have any war vehicles or weapons in space? Are we to believe that we have nothing better aloft than the shuttle that was on the drawing boards for 10 years before it made its first flight in 1981?

Raelian’s Israeli “orgy for world peace” cancelled
I found this item about those crazy Raelians on Huffington Post thanks to Chez Pazienza over at Deus Ex Malcontent. For those not familiar with the Raelians, they are a saucer cult founded by French race car test-driver turned spiritual guru Claude Vorilhon. The Raelian ideology is the standard ancient astronaut world seeding theory, with heaping dollops of late 60s and early 70s free love, and generically spiritual “war is bad” platitudes. They have been in the news most recently for their support of, and claim that they had succeeded in, human cloning. Vorilhon, who currently goes by the name Rael and claims to be the son of an earthly mother of an extraterrestrial father, founded his religion after an alleged close encounter in 1973 where he met his father … Read entire article »

Austin Event Tonight: Energetic Effects on Consciousness
Energetic Effects on Consciousness: Invisible Pollution or Panacea? Presented by James B. Beal, B.S. (M.E.) Tuesday, September 23rd, 6:30 – 8:30 P.M. Austin History Center, 810 Guadalupe, Austin, TX 78701 Potential causes, symptoms, therapies, cures, precautions, and recent research associated with hazardous EMF’s will be discussed. The wide-ranging healing stimulation effects of EMF’s have been utilized in many other countries since 1849; why, then, have EMF studies been suppressed in the US since the 1920s? Research documents and references on this topic will be available. Need we be concerned about the biological effects of electromagnetic fields (EMF’s) from the proximity to power lines? Should we be concerned about the new wireless technologies in and around near our homes, such as cell phones, wireless networks, cell towers, antennas, and portable home phones? Wireless networks in home, … Read entire article »
