Former President Bill Clinton Speaks Out About UFOs (Or Does He?)

During one of many radio interviews that former President Bill Clinton has done recently to help his wife\’s presidential campaign, he was asked about the UFO subject. The question came from Big D and Bubba, Morning Show Jocks on the Premier Radio Network. Budda asked Clinton, “When will we, if we will ever know the truth about UFOs?” Clinton replied, “It\’s interesting that you ask that because when we celebrated the anniversary of that event out in New Mexico (the Roswell UFO Crash)…I actually got all the government documents and read them and I\’m convinced it wasn\’t a UFO there…but who knows?”

It was no surprise that the former president managed to do the old political sidestep and failed to actually answer the question. I\’m sure he was concerned about what any speculation regarding UFOs and government secrecy might do to Hillary\’s Campaign. However, it was a surprise that Clinton has refused to share at least some of what he personally knows to be true about UFOs. Two major briefings on the subject took place during President Clinton\’s Administration. One was unofficial and the other was official.

Bill and Hillary Clinton were staying at the Rockefeller Teton Ranch near Jackson Hole, Wyoming, when they were given an extensive briefing about UFOs by philanthropist and UFO enthusiast Laurence Rockefeller in August of 1996. Rockefeller assembled an impressive volume of information and attempted to sell the Clintons on the idea that they needed to stand up to the CIA and other forces within the government that sought to keep all the information about UFOs and Aliens secret from the public.

Although we have no comments from either of the Clintons about the briefing or their reaction to it, we do know that many of Clinton\’s advisors did their best to portray Rockefeller as a kind of nut that would waste their time with the UFO briefing. Most felt that the President and First Lady should give the material little weight and endure it as briefly and politely as possible. However, not everyone felt that way.

When John Podesta became President Clinton\’s Chief of Staff in 1998, it was well known that he was a fanatical fan of The X Files. Podesta was fascinated with the UFO subject. One White House Staffer said he would sometimes get on the phone and call places like Area 51 to ask the Air Force what was really going on out there. Given John Podesta\’s passion for seeking the truth about UFOs, it would be hard to believe that the Clintons were not given every opportunity to find out what the government really knew about UFOs.

Thanks to a Presidential Executive Order (#12958) signed by Bill Clinton, over 80 million secret documents were made available for declassification. Many of these documents had to do with UFOs. In fact, the Sci-Fi Channel became the direct beneficiary of some of that information using it as a springboard to call for the government to release more information about UFOs and to produce subsequent programming about various high-profile UFO events including the Roswell and Kecksburg UFO crashes.

A second briefing given to President Clinton (and Vice President Gore) is one that I have known about, but not publicized up to this point. That briefing was given over a secure phone connection by former U.S. Government Scientist and Air Force Officer, Dr. Michael Wolf. Among those present on the phone was my friend and fellow UFO Researcher, Dick Criswell. Dick was a member of Wolf\’s AlphaCom Team. Unlike the Rockefeller briefing, this one was official and provided very detailed and extremely sensitive information to President Clinton and Vice President Gore.

Former President Clinton is a very intelligent man. Although he likes to play the part of the good ole boy that happened to get lucky and end up in the White House, he is a force to be reckoned with and not simply the Hilary puppet that many pundits claim. Clinton knows the value of information and how to use it to get what he wants. It surprises me that he hasn\’t been more open about his own quest for UFO information and what he has officially learned about the subject from sources like Dr Wolf and the AlphaCom Team.

I do not know what lead up to the Wolf Briefing, but I know that politicians often find themselves up against a brick wall when it comes to getting information about UFOs from conventional government and military sources. And they are not alone. I have had many people serving in the military or working with them complain about the secrecy surrounding the subject. In 1993, I received a call from an Instructor that was teaching a course at the Air Force Academy. I was presenting a series of seminars in Colorado Springs and he heard me talking about the subject on a local radio station.

During our phone conversation, the Instructor stated that he and others at the Academy were always directed to the old Project Bluebook materials any time they had questions about UFOs or tried to get materials on the subject for their students. Knowing that I would be presenting my seminar entitled The Worldwide UFO Cover-Up (now available on DVD) the following evening; he asked if I would consider adding an additional seminar sitting for Air Force Academy Cadets, Instructors and interested parties.

I added the additional sitting and it was quite an experience presenting a seminar about the UFO Cover-Up to a room filled with several hundred Air Force Academy Cadets, Officers and Instructors. That experience really drove home the point to me that even those with good military connections may not have the juice to get to the truth or even a small portion of it. I can imagine that even U.S. Presidents might end up feeling the same frustration as they try to obtain information about UFOs and what the government knows about Aliens visiting Earth.

Given their political ambitions, Bill and Hillary must be concerned about something other than the status quo considering their relative silence about the UFO subject. Perhaps they feel some sort of political retaliation or worse. It is well known that Bill Clinton asked his friend and Associate Attorney General Webster Hubbell for two inquiries as soon as he became president: 1) Are UFOs real and 2) What about the JFK Assassination. It\’s unknown what type response he received.

Given the fact that the former president idolized assassinated president John F. Kennedy, Bill Clinton may have learned from what some feel was Kennedy\’s fatal error. Although his murder has been blamed on everyone from angry mobsters and government conspirators to a lone gunman, recent evidence indicates that President Kennedy was murdered by secret government insiders that believed he might reveal the truth about UFOs and Aliens to the public.

Still careful and deliberately vague whenever he comments about UFOs, Bill Clinton seems to understand the code of silence set in place for high-ranking ex-government officials and retired members of the military. Clinton probably believes that there is just no safe political currency to be gained in exposing the secrets about UFOs and Aliens and he may well be right. Those that sought to ignore that code have been murdered, died early deaths or been killed under suspicious circumstances.

New Mexico Congressman Steven Schiff died of cancer at age 51 after making many inquiries into the Roswell UFO Crash and raising public awareness on the matter. Former Navy Officer William Milton Cooper (Bill Cooper) was shot to death by law enforcement officers that claimed he charged after and shot at them (with his one good leg). Cooper spent years exposing the secret government in place to deal with Aliens. Former government geologist Phil Schneider was found dead with piano wire tied around his neck after years of speaking out about secret underground bases and hostile encounters between aliens and members of the military. Schneider had been shot several times and on other occasions before his death.

It\’s sad to think that the best the American Public can hope for is some occasional deathbed statement or confession from those involved with the cover-up to provide any reliable information about what the government knows about UFOs and Aliens. Part of the blame lies at the door of our news media as they chuckle about or make light of any and all stories of UFO sightings, alien encounters or the government cover-up of related information. One can only hope that some fearless politicians and reporters eventually appear who are willing to expand their reality boxes to include more than just what happens on this small planet and tell the truth to a public hungry for it.

Teacher My Homework Was Confiscated - A Story About A UFO Cover-Up

I’m going to pass along a story that a friend told me. This actually happened to her as a young teenager. This story has been verified by other family members. Although there are certain details which I can’t tell you because nobody knows, I can give you an overall idea of just how far they’ll go in order to keep the secrets that even a kid can access.

Her mother was, at the time, remarried to a man serving in the U.S. Air Force. They had recently moved to Arizona, and the school that she went to gave her a homework assignment, which was, simply enough, to write a report on any subject. So she decided to do a report on The Validity of Aliens and UFO’s.

She went home with her assignment, and began to do her research, first on a computer that she had access to, then at the library. She had been working on it for a couple of days when a man in uniform came to talk to her step-father.

After a short while, her step-father came into her bedroom, took her notes, her floppy disk and a book that she had checked out of the library and gave them all to the visitor. He then told her to find something else to do a report on, and to never speak of it again.

Nobody knows what was actually said between the two, as her step-father had passed away a short time later. And nobody knows who this man actually was, just someone from the base a little higher up in the ranks. The major consensus was that she had apparently accessed something that she shouldn’t have, what it was exactly, nobody knows. They don’t tell us things like that.

All I can tell you is that she believes strongly in the existence of UFO’s and Aliens. Oh, and her report was late. She got into trouble for that.

The Zero Point

The zero point is a state of consciousness where no distance exists. This means that the beginning exists within the end, awareness exists with ignorance and power exists with impotence. The reason that this state is so powerful is due to the fact that healing, manifestation and empowerment can occur instantly. There is no pause between here and there, because here and there exist in the same point.

For all things to exist in the same point is to mean that all things are one. It is this unity that allows mind, body and spirit to be one. It is this unity that allows the Shaman to become the wolf. It is this unity that allowed Nicola Tesla to be the mind of technology.

Embracing destruction is important in order to experience the zero point because without destruction we will not conquer our limiting beliefs and emotions. Destruction provides room for movement or creation. Creation creates experience which then opens the way for reflection and observation, which then paves the way for further destruction and refinement.

The zero point consciousness is found through destroying all that is separate. The more that unity is created, the more that separation is destroyed. The creative phase appears as a result of this. Although energy is not actually destroyed, the form, essence and the meaning that it represents can be.

Zero point consciousness has the potential to completely destroy the form, essence and meaning of energies.

It is this power that makes it so valuable to healers and adepts of all kinds. This power is also the reason why complete zero point consciousness can usually only be accessed by those that have spent the time and done the work stretching and conditioning their mind. The conditioning of the mind ensures that along with power, the adept also has control and perception.

Certain technologies and psychedelic drugs are able to connect the mind and body to a relatively strong zero point consciousness and many realizations can be had in this state. There is however no real control, since the very tools that determine control are the faculties that are used to develop a firm and measured grasp on zero point consciousness from scratch.

The massive difference is whether it is the zero point that directs us or us that directs the zero point.

Having the power to manifest and make powerful connections instantly may sound great, but the ramifications are huge if we are not in control. A mind that is unable to focus or manage its many emotional states can and will create more pain and suffering for itself when it has the power to do so. Just as a healer can transpose a diseased state, zero point consciousness can also bring on a diseased state.

The experience is completely different when all the supporting muscles of the mind and consciousness have been developed, and it is the very development that takes place when training with control to connect to zero point that develops these muscles. This provides the ability to create, sustain and manage the profound amounts of energy involved.

This planet has been littered with the corpses of minds eager for spiritual quick fixes and answers, but not willing or knowing enough to do the work required to get these. The answers have always been the same. Lack of control leads to power out of control.

Zero point consciousness is a destination of profound value. This value is only truly open to us when we develop it through the use of our own faculties and senses. It is only then, that we have the control and perception to direct it.

The T.A.P.S. Guys Insult the Irish and Continue To Get It Wrong Regarding Paranormal Research

It came as no surprise to me that the ‘plumbers by day’ have yet again caused my email inbox to overflow. Not that I have any interest in or connection to their ghost research activities or show on the Sci-Fi Channel. However, I noticed that several of my articles denouncing the kind of hit and run ghost research tactics they use have had over thirty thousand reads. That confirms my view that I am not the only person that sees them as the worst example possible of paranormal investigators.

In an effort to be fair and civil, I have avoided specific criticism of Jason Hawes and Grant Wilson of the Sci-Fi Channel’s Ghost Hunters series. Instead, I have lumped my criticism of their methods with what I see as a new generation of flawed ghost hunting procedures, practices and styles. These methods are used by a number of paranormal reality show Personalities trying to give a scare, land a laugh and get paid for it all. The problems arise when people see these programs as more than just entertainment.

I have never spoken or had any contact with the Ghost Hunters from T.A.P.S., so I encourage people to make their own judgments regarding the participants, organization and series. For me, Ghost Hunters is nothing more than a real life cartoon in the tradition of Cat Dog or just a poor paranormal imitation of the old Abbot and Costello Show. The fact that it airs on the Sci-Fi Channel takes some of the sting out of my indignation for their activities because I assume that most viewers are not watching to learn proper ghost research methods.

I understand the need to interject humor into the presentation of paranormal research. No one wants to watch a program where people just walk around tense and frightened all the time. But there is a time and place for it. The time isn’t during an active investigation and the place is never on site. Even the fact that Ghost Hunters is far more entertainment than it is investigation doesn’t give the T.A.P.S. people license to represent themselves as paranormal researchers. Their search for spirits more closely resembles someone looking for a lost cat, than investigators trying to solve a spiritual mystery.

The latest emails that I have received about the Ghost Hunters have to do with two specific concerns and are fair criticisms of some incorrect equipment and inappropriate behavior. I cannot fully address these matters because I do not watch the show. But as the old saying goes, you don’t have to lift the lid off a garbage can to know what it smells like inside.

I have only seen three episodes of Ghost Hunters from several different seasons. Every once in a while I have my wife tie me down to a chair in front of the television, tape my eyelids open and make me watch Ghost Hunters so I can offer a fair criticism of the show. She also makes me say, “Yes, Mistress” when I’m tied down, but that’s another story. What I see doing those times really makes me experience a lot of negative emotions (I’m being polite). As I have made clear before, Ghost Research done wrong not only sets a bad example, but it’s also dangerous, unfair and can easily produce results that are anything but desirable or accurate.

Regarding the first set of email criticisms, I feel comfortable commenting on these because they apply to many in the ghost research and investigation field. At the risk of seeming like someone still living in the dark analog ages, I tend to agree with those that have emailed me concerned with the use of so much digital equipment by the Ghost Hunters. Anyone involved in Ghost Research for any length of time knows that digital is easier and offers much in the way of post filming examination, but rarely reliable for this purpose. Digital video cameras do not offer the same results that formats like VHS, VHS-C, SuperVHS and 8mm do. That’s why I still keep some of those older format camcorders around for paranormal witness interviews and on site research.

All video and audio formats have their issues. The tape ‘hiss’ of a reel to reel or portable cassette recorder has often been the source of various claims of EVP activity. Worn tape heads can produce some very odd noises that really do sound much like distant voices. I’ve often wondered if the effect was caused by a kind of scratching of magnetic tape similar to the cutting of an old long-playing recordable record which might produce the unintended taping of sounds in the immediate area of the recorder.

Reel to Reel and Cassette Recorders may also sometimes produce false EVPs due to electronic interference. This was first addressed by a number of articles that appeared in various newsletters and a few major paranormal publications during the 1970s. Researchers noticed that when recorders were used in close proximity to telephones, televisions, ac powered radio tuners or stereo systems, various non-anomalous sounds would end up recorded on the tapes. These sounds were not spirits.

Everything from snippets of ship-to-shore, commercial broadcast and citizens band radio transmissions to tapping noises caused by various electronic processes still taking place while televisions, radios and tuners where turned off or in standby mode (still connected to AC power sources) have been recorded and often misidentified as paranormal phenomena. The use of professional video or film recording equipment can also add to the problem.

A video technician working for the late 1970s era program, That’s Incredible, sent me a letter in 1982 after reading an article I wrote about the Steven Spielberg film, Poltergeist. While involved in filming an episode about the famous haunted Toys R Us in Sunnyvale, California, he became fascinated with the idea of recording images and sounds of ghosts. Armed with a used ¾” video format recorder, a stand alone video camera, a 5” reel to reel and standard portable cassette recorder, he made several attempts.

The locations he chose were (as memory serves) a couple of hotels and restaurants on the west coast that were supposed to be haunted. If anything came out, he had the connections to sell the footage and recoup any expenses. Unfortunately, all he ended up with was some bizarre static, an occasional drop-out and a few weird sounds that turned out to have been caused by the use of lightly-shielded wires and normal electromagnetic activity. Seeing this, he offered some excellent pointers which included practical distances between each camera or piece of equipment and measuring of electromagnetic activity at various intervals before, during and after recording.

The magnetic activity near his portable reel to reel and cassette recorders surged and ebbed as the professional video recorders and camera were turned on, off and set into the record and play modes. He went into various technical explanations for these variances that I do not recall; however, it gave me an idea.

After reading the video technician’s letter, I began to theorize that all living things have a measurable frequency. I came to believe in the possibility that the physical bodies of living people limited the available detection or recording of such a frequency. After death, that frequency would replace the physical body and become the means for communication with the living or transmission of the soul to heaven, other spiritual planes or whatever happened to fit your belief system.

My Frequency Theory would account for many things that go on between ghosts, living people and electronic equipment. For example, if physical bodies interfere with these frequencies, that might explain why ghost and poltergeist activity tends to occur more when the living are absent. The frequency idea might also account for the ability of some people to receive messages from the dead or psychic impressions, while others cannot. Perhaps there are some frequencies that are commonly shared and would allow some living persons to link to ethereal sources the way we go online with a computer.

Apart from electronic anomalies both identified and unidentified, the Frequency Theory might explain why it is so difficult for ghosts of people that died prior to the modern electronic age to appear or communicate with the living. Compare some tapping on a wall a century ago with the full blown appearance and direct communication seen between the living and dead in the case of the ghosts of Flight 401. Those poor souls died in the midst of a sea of electronics. Did some basic understanding of or link to that equipment allow them to better communicate with the living?

The Frequency Theory would also account for why the U.S. Government would have so much interest in things like HAARP and the use of frequencies like ELF as both a means of communication and a possible weapon. If it all comes down to knowing what frequency or type of frequency a particular person, object, thing or phenomenon exists at, than causing a change in weather, the instant obliteration of a human body or even the destruction of a spirit would no longer be just the stuff of science fiction. Neither would the instantaneous movement of large objects or the manipulation of space-time.

Digital equipment produces frequencies that may interfere with the frequencies of spirits (if there are frequencies at all). But even if you do not accept the Frequency Theory, there are problems with digital equipment caused by their own frequencies that have nothing to do with the theory. These include anomalies caused by the digital recording and playback process and variances within that process that simply cannot be measured on a moment to moment basis. When it comes to digital equipment, the price to be paid for better quality audio and video may be too high when it comes to ghost research.

Analog video offers some real advantages over digital or even mechanical still photography. While many of the ‘orbs’ seen on still photography can easily be explained in terms of photographic method, developing and equipment, orbs and other oddities that appear on analog video are harder nuts for skeptics to crack.

The key to successfully using analog video is simply observing some common sense rules. Use quality connectors, properly shielded cables, fresh video tape instead of one that’s been used and erased, and measure magnetic fields before, during and after the placement and use of equipment. Although videophiles will say that magnetic particles on slightly used video tapes are more stable and compact offering better recording quality, they can also produce false shadows and images from prior use.

When on site during an investigation it is wise avoid an over-dependence on electronic equipment. Avoid the presence of laptops, cell phones, ipods and the always popular personal communication devices (walkie talkies) using FM or CB bands. Instead of laptops or handhelds, keep a written log book of temps, magnetic fields and other essential data.

After many years of recording investigation scenes involving paranormal phenomenon, I remain a fan of the analog process. Cumbersome, annoying and often power hungry, those machines still offer many advantages over digital and have (to date) produced better overall results. To be fair, I doubt the ‘plumbers by day’ have much choice when it comes to equipment choices or set up since they seem to be constantly surrounded by a film crew and tech advisors that seem oblivious to proper paranormal investigative methodology.

The second group of criticisms regarding the Ghost Hunters are more worrisome. Their recent jaunt to Ireland left many native Irish and Irish Americans angry over their complete disrespect for the nation’s cultural heritage of belief in various supernatural beings including ghosts and fairies. Apart from their usual slash and dash method of ghost hunting which, in itself, is insulting and degrading, it’s not hard to imagine the sheer disgust felt by the Irish as they were forced to endure completely unacceptable comments and behavior by T.A.P.S. personnel.

Disrespecting places of spiritual and supernatural significance in America is bad enough, but the Irish are wise enough to know that those kinds of behaviors have consequences in the here and hereafter. They have a right to be concerned about the way the T.A.P.S. people acted in the presence of possibly ancient spirits.

If the Ghost Hunters want to play dress up, let them pretend to be cooks and go on Hell’s Kitchen or get washed up on some Survivor island. Their claims of being paranormal investigators are really insulting to those of us that respect the living and see spiritual activity as something more than just impulses, cold spots or things to be ‘hunted.”

Disturbing Secrets - Bill English and Project Blue Book Report 13

After many phone conversations with Bill English during the late 1980s and early 1990s, I came to the conclusion that he was the real deal. That’s a rare find in a field filled with people that imagine themselves to be former Directors of MJ-12, Alien Saviors and Pleadian Royalty. Apart from his attention to detail and willingness to produce credentials, Bill had much more to lose than gain by coming forward with the story of Blue Book Report 13. Considering the controversies that grew out of the MJ-12 documents, who would want that kind of negative attention?

Project Bluebook (1949-1969) was the official U.S. Government investigation into UFOs that replaced Projects Grudge (1949-1951) and Sign (1947-1949). Headquartered at Wright-Patterson AFB, the investigations were handled by the U.S. Air Force. Without going into a lot of detail that would distract from the subject, there were thirteen reports prepared from the raw information gathered by those investigations. The reports were numbered 1-12 and 14.

Report 14 contradicted conclusions reached by the others. 1-12 left wiggle room for attacking the credibility of UFO Witnesses. 14 pointed out that less than 10% of the UFO sightings or encounters reported to Bluebook could be attributed to unstable or unreliable witnesses. That made everyone wonder if there was a Report 13 and what it had to say. If there was and it was filled with secrets, why skip a number? Why not give it a different designation and lock it away in some forgotten file drawer? The answer to those questions has to do with the military and bureaucratic mindset. They would rather spend millions of dollars trying to deny or discredit a Report 13, instead of just changing the number.

Enter Bill English, the son of an Arizona State Legislator and a former Captain in the U.S. Army Green Berets. Bill was honorably discharged while overseas in 1973. He remained in Germany with his wife until she was transferred to RAF Chicksands’ Department of Defense Schools. Bill’s wife was a GS-9 (Teacher). After the couple arrived at Chicksands, English says he ran into a former Commanding Officer working for the NSA. He offered Bill a job at a listening post known as the ‘elephant cage.’ English accepted the position and remained there until July of 1976.

Bill describes his duties at the listening post:

“It was my job to analyze the translated transcripts of radio transmissions that had been received from Soviet bloc nations through the listening post at Chicksands. We monitored military frequencies mostly. I had to assign what we called a probability rating to the material and create a possible scenario that might result from the transmission or might have resulted in the transmission. Say, for example, if we received information that so-and-so was on vacation somewhere, and then we heard a phone call made from a certain location, we’d compare the two and get an indication whether or not this gentleman really was on vacation or not.”

Near the end of June, 1976, English received a 625 page report to examine and evaluate. He identifies it as Grudge/Blue Book Report 13. After examining everything, Bill leaves us with the impression that he assigned a high probability rating to the report which indicated that UFOs were of extraterrestrial origin. He says that decision was influenced by the inclusion of photos associated with a classified military mission that occurred around May of 1970. That mission involved English.

Bill English was a member of Special Forces serving in Vietnam when his team was dispatched to a B-52 crash site in Laos. On arrival, he found the aircraft intact with little visible damage and hatches sealed. After blasting their way in, the team found the crew dead. They were still in their seats and harnesses, but ‘horribly mutilated.’ Despite the damage to their bodies, there was very little blood present on the floor of the aircraft. After photographing the scene and collecting items on their retrieval list, the Special Forces team set off charges causing bombs still on board the aircraft to explode and incinerate the bodies inside.

Apart from the inclusion of photos taken by the Special Forces Team in Laos, the report contained some very upsetting and disturbing information. The human mutilation case of Sergeant Lovette is a good example. In March of 1956, Air Force Sergeant Jonathan P. Lovette was with Major William Cunningham of the United States Air Force Missile Command. The two were at White Sands Missile Range looking for debris from a missile test. Sergeant Lovette was separated from Major Cunningham for a brief period of time when Cunningham heard him scream.

Cunningham ran over a dune and saw Lovette being dragged aboard a disc-shaped object by a snake-like device wrapped around his legs. Cunningham ran back to his vehicle and radioed news of the incident to Mission Control. Search parties were dispatched to find Lovette. After Cunningham was debriefed, he was admitted to the White Sands Base Dispensary for observation. Three days into the search, Lovette’s nude body was located ten miles downrange.

English later commented on the condition of Lovette’s body on audio cassette (abridged):

“The body had been mutilated; the tongue had been removed from the lower portion of the jaw. An incision had been made just under the tip of the chin and extended all the way back to the esophagus and larynx. He had been emasculated and his eyes had been removed… (Censored for disturbing content)… There was no sign of blood within the system. The initial autopsy report confirmed that the system had been completely drained of blood and that there was no vascular collapse due to death by bleeding… When the body was found there were a number of dead predatory type birds within the area who apparently had died after trying to partake of the sergeant’s body.”

Less than a month after he first received the Grudge/Blue Book Report 13, English reported to work only to find himself being escorted to the Base Commander’s Office by security personnel. Colonel Robert Black informed him that his services were no longer needed and that he was being immediately expelled from the UK. English was placed on an aircraft at RAF Lakenheath and flown back to the USA without the opportunity to contact his wife or anyone else. Once home, he was given a plane ticket back to Arizona. Bill’s wife was left with the impression that he had simply abandoned her.

Two years later, Colonel Black and his Operations Sergeant appeared at Bill’s place of business in Tucson, AZ. Black told English that they had also been given the boot by the military because of Grudge/Blue Book Report 13 and that he had a plan to get even with them. Black claimed to have information about an enormous alien craft that was buried at the White Sands Missile Range in New Mexico. He wanted English to help him and his former Operations Sergeant find it and expose the Government Cover-Up. Bill agreed to help, sold his business and threw his money in with theirs.

English describes what happened during the hunt for the huge flying saucer:

“We purchased a van, which we outfitted with desert tires, marine radar, listening devices, magnetometers and some pretty flaky video cameras of the time. We rendezvoused and traveled along the perimeter of WSMR, and in certain areas we would cross into the test range and look around. Ultimately we wound up in White Sands National Park. From there we drove onto the range. Toward sunset, I was walking on the range about 1,000 yards in front of the vehicle. Black and his sergeant were both in it at the time. I heard a rather familiar sound, and screamed ‘Incoming!’ and went face first into the dirt. The next thing I know, the van is blowing up. I think they fired a rocket. Then there are helicopters all over the place, and I am running for my life, literally. I made it back to Tucson on foot.”

After a series of quickly calculated steps and help from friends, English went into hiding. By the time he contacted me in the late 1980s, there had been several serious attempts on his life. To his credit, English began telling his story to most any serious UFO Researcher that would listen. This got his name out before the public and made the possibility of any additional assassination attempts unlikely. However, English still had one extremely dangerous adversary…himself.

Bill English was cautious when it came to revealing certain facts, but those instances were too few and far between. He came across to me as a guy that was recounting his experiences from memory without concern for what anyone thought about it. Most criticisms of English or claimed contradictions count on the ‘official version’ from government sources and tend to be cancelled out by an equal amount of verifications. In the end, it’s what Bill English read about in Grudge/Blue Book Report 13 that tips the scales in his favor.

Apart from any revelations by Bill English, it just made sense that a classified version of the Project Blue Book Report would exist in one form or another. After all, intelligence data is only as good as someone’s ability to interpret it. Some sort of reference material would have to be available for that purpose. In such a case, no points would be given for political correctness or watered-down information. While some of the assertions made by English and included in the report may be disturbing, they are the kind of ’in your face’ facts that would be found in a classified reference work. They are also not exclusive. Stories of this type exist within the files of many UFO investigators.

I recall being castigated by the UFO research community in New York during the 1980s after revealing that a number of already deceased bodies in local morgues and funeral homes were being strangely mutilated in parts of New York City and Westchester County. The incidents were too widespread and numerous to be the work of a few twisted individuals or some local cult and coincided with multiple UFO sightings. While looking into that, I discovered that a larger than usual number of missing children cases were popping up in the same areas in conjunction with UFO Sightings. That coincides with another case mentioned in Grudge/Blue Book Report 13.

English recounts the Darlington Farm Case as mentioned in Report 13 on audio cassette (abridged):

“October 1953. Man, wife and 13 year old son were sitting down at dinner table. As they sat there the lights in the farm house began to dim. Dogs and animals raised ruckus on outside. 13 year old boy got up from dinner table to see what was going on. Called his mother and father to come look at the funny light in the sky. Father and mother went out onto the porch. When they got out on the porch one of the dogs broke loose from leash beside house and came running around front. Boy began chasing it into the open field.”

“As mother and father watched the light come down from the sky, they described it as a round ball of fire and it began to hover over the field where the boy and dog had run to. As they stood and watched, the mother and father heard the boy start screaming for help whereupon the father grabbed his shotgun which was right next to the door and began to run out into the field with the mother following. When the father got to the field he saw his son being carried away by what looked like little men, into this huge fiery looking object. As it took off the father fired several rounds at the object, to no avail. They found the dog; its head had been crushed but no sign of the boy or any other footprints of the little men who apparently carried him off.”

“Father called the Darlington police and they immediately came out to investigate. The official report read that the boy had run off and was lost in the forest which bordered the farm. Within 48 hours the Air Force made the determination that the family was to be relocated. The mother and father were picked up by Air Force (personnel) and all personal belongings and possessions were loaded into U.S. Air Force trucks and moved to a northwestern relocation site. The mother was in shock and had to go through a great deal of psychotherapy and deprogramming as did father. One interesting aspect about this case was classification under Air Force report which read it was a genuine CE 3 and that for the good of national security the mother and father had been relocated to relocation zones Z21-14. Not sure whether this indicated map grid coordinates or latitude longitude.”

The one thing that most critics and skeptics miss when they randomly attack UFO Witnesses and Cases is the commonality factor. That factor plays a big part in my belief that Grudge/Blue Book Report 13 is real and that English had access to it. The experiences and revelations of Bill English are disturbing on many levels, but that doesn’t make them untrue. The truth remains the truth whether we are intellectually able to accept it or not.

The International Paranormal UFO Society announces the release of an extremely rare video interview with Bill English and equally rare public lecture presented during the 1990s on DVD. The new DVD release is entitled, Disturbing Secrets: Project Blue Book Report 13, with a running time of about 120 minutes. Visit http://dvds.CanYouStandTheTruth.com

Psychics

A psychic is an umbrella term used to describe a person with paranormal abilities. Psychic powers have been around since ancient times and have been known to appear in both Egyptian and Viking societies. Psychics can be clairvoyants, palm readers or mediums. Psychics can provide advice on all aspects of a persons life and let them know information about their lifes purpose. The guidance that a psychic provides to the client has the ability to change and improve their life if the person chooses to follow their advice.

It is widely believed that psychics gain their power from either a spiritual gift or their body ability to use their brain more effectively. It is estimated that human beings use only about ten percent of their brain. It is a common theory that psychics have the ability to tap into the other ninety percent of the brain power and this is the source of their gifts.

There are several natural gifts that psychics can use to help their clients. Some psychics have the ability to communicate with other spiritual realms that we do not have access to. These types of psychics are usually called mediums and they can give you messages from departed loved one. There are people with the ability to receive messages in their minds. A clairsentient feels a message, a clairvoyant sees a special message and a clairaudient hears a message. There are also psychics that are great animal communicators. They can telepathically connect with animals and allow us to know what they are feeling.

Psychics can use several tools to enhance their abilities. Astrology is used to display how the patterns of the planets relate to the events in our lives. An astrology reading is used to let the client know what to expect in their life.Numerology works in a similar way.A persons date of birth is used to indicate the lifes path.

Tarot cards are used to answer a clients specific question or give an overview of their current situation. There are two types of cards in a tarot deck: the major and minor arcane. Psychics will most likely focus on the major cards during the reading since they reveal the major aspects of a persons life.

Additional tools include crystals, runes, and pendulums. Psychics know how to use these powerful items to get the answers that you want to know about your life. A psychic can also use their gifts to not only tell about your future, but also make predictions about the upcoming events in the world.

Psychics have amazing powers, but there are certain things that you should not expect from a psychic. A psychic can not predict lottery numbers, horse race winners, or provide you with gambling tips. A psychic that tells you that they can do this is merely a scam artist that wishes to take your money. Also, avoid psychics that ask for an absorbent amount of money without providing any proof of their skills. However, do not expect a psychic to be accurate all of the time. Everybody makes mistakes and a psychic is no different.

When you visit or contact a psychic, they will let you know their specialties and will usually have several services to offer you. They can give you a general reading or you can simply ask the questions that you wish to be answered about your life. You will be amazed at the psychics intuition and how many details that they can give you about your current situation. It is important to remember that psychics can guide you in the right direction, but it is up to you to follow their guidance.

The Guilds of Asharem

One of the places to study in the 5th layer of the astral are the Guilds of Asharem. Entry to these guilds is allowed as long as the seeker comes with love in their heart. As with most places in the astral the keys to temples, guilds and masters will be found in the energy of the seeker. The Guild of Asharem is a good starting place however because unlike other places which require high level transmutations of energy, the Asharem Guild simply requires that the inner motivation of the seeker is towards love and self-empowerment.

Many of the teachers within are dedicated to helping seekers learn how to transmute earth plane energies into subtler etheric energies. These practices are extremely effective compared to many earth bound methods and seekers will find they are able to develop in days what would take years in the physical.

The currency in the Asherem Guild rather than money is the energetic honor of its practitioners. There is an understanding that cultivation of this inner energy and integrity is helping all practitioners within the guild move toward their goal. Unlike the physical, seekers who are dishonest in intention will be seen immediately for what they are. On the other hand seekers who are sincere will be helped and supported in transmuting and transforming their limiting and ‘negative’ energies.

Dedication to learning the methods of even a less strict guild such as the Asherem will require much commitment on the physical plane. Spiritual learning will need to become a priority, not necessarily over basic survival needs such as working and family, but for the most part spiritual development will need to revolve around other physical plane pursuits and not the other way around. All in all, the Asherem Guild is a boon to those ready to seek effective and ‘higher’ forms of spiritual learning.

The Roswell UFO Crash Sixty Years Later (1947-2007) - Secrets Yet To Be Revealed

Thousands will gather in Roswell, NM, this summer for the annual UFO Festival. Because it’s been sixty years since the UFO crash, this festival will be more important than most. Despite self-serving, ever-changing statements directly or indirectly from the U.S. Government, no one really knows what crashed near Roswell in July of 1947. However, thanks to the courage of individuals that have come forward to speak about what they witnessed or the role they played in the unexplained event, we can be almost certain of one thing. It was, in the words of the late Jesse Marcel Sr., “not of this earth.”

Marcel was an Intelligence Officer at the base and had personal involvement with the investigation of the material from the crash site. He is not alone in his assessment of what crashed near Roswell. The late Retired Colonel Philip Corso offered his own experiences as proof positive in a book entitled ‘The Day after Roswell.’ Shortly after the UFO crash, Corso had an opportunity to view an unusual cadaver preserved in some sort of blue liquid while he was Post Duty Officer at Fort Riley, KS. The body came from Roswell via Fort Bliss and was en route to Wright Field (Wright-Patterson AFB, OH).

It’s important to remember that these are just two of the many people that had first or second hand knowledge about the crash. Even a quick examination of the collective evidence would indicate this event involved something more than a weather, high altitude or radar balloon with a bunch of crash test dummies or cadavers aboard. It was more than some crazy test vehicle that a bunch of super-intelligent children or midgets were piloting around the New Mexico desert during a violent thunderstorm. These facts make the Roswell UFO Festival an essential event that has become an annual reminder of a great mystery that remains unsolved.

There are two sides to the UFO festival. One is fun and involves a carnival, rides, parades, an air show, celebrity speakers and all sorts of events designed to lure families to the otherwise off the beaten path little town. The other is more serious. It’s the opportunity for people to hear UFO investigators and researchers speak about the event or what they might know about aliens, cover-ups and crash retrievals. Past events and trips to the UFO Museum during the festival have provided people with the opportunity to meet some of the surviving witnesses or family members and we assume such opportunities will be made available this time around.

Although I have been to Roswell over twenty times since the early 1980s, I have never attended the festival. My loss. However, I have (by invitation) presented seminars in the town before the festival was organized and visited occasionally since that time. Despite missing out on all the festivities, I have always enjoyed the calm and mystery of the place without all the hoopla.

I presented my first seminar in Roswell during 1992. It was supposed to be a low-key event at a nice hotel and small convention facility for a group of former military personnel (unrelated to the old base) holding a reunion in town. They invited me to speak after one of the organizers heard a guest spot that I did on an Albuquerque radio show the year before. Barely aware of the crash, the organizer was fascinated by my analysis of what happened at Roswell in 1947. He wanted those attending the reunion to have an opportunity to hear the same thing.

I arrived in town a few days before the event so that I could snoop around as I usually did whenever I came to Roswell. Unfortunately, my radio and television appearances in Albuquerque to plug a seminar I presented there alerted the media in Roswell. A noontime television interview that I did on a local Albuquerque news program was simulcast in Roswell and that was the end of my ambiguity. With the story of the Roswell Crash all over the map in those days and a shortage of UFO researchers that spoke about Roswell actually visiting their town, I was invited to appear on a midday TV news show, booked for a guest spot on local radio and gave an interview to the Roswell Daily Record.

Fortunately, my seminar for the group holding their reunion in Roswell was also open to the public. And the public came out in force. I was surprised because you would think that after the publication of The Roswell Incident, an Unsolved Mystery episode on the crash and all the media coverage received, the people in town would be sick of hearing about UFOs. Instead, they couldn’t get enough.

One of the people that attended my seminar was Glenn Dennis. He was the funeral home worker that said he arrived at the Roswell Base just after the crash in 1947. He took some time to speak with me after the seminar ended and said that my presentation about UFOs was the most accurate and the best he had ever seen. Similar kudos were thrown my way by others in the audience and those comments remain a highlight of my time as a paranormal researcher.

Most of the younger people that came out to my seminar candidly told me that most of what they learned about the crash came from TV specials and occasional news reports. Given my first visit to Roswell in the 80‘s, I believed them. Asking about the location of the crash in those days tended to get you dirty looks. Roswell citizens were in a state of denial and even the history of the old Roswell Base seemed unimportant to them at that time. It was a lesson in how successful a cover-up and government intimidation can be.

Despite their lack of enthusiasm for local history during my first visit to Roswell, I am happy to report that the town has had a complete turn around. Barely mentioned in the town brochure and considered a kind of local embarrassment in those days, the UFO Crash has become almost a centerpiece of town history. The base, its connection to atomic history and the former military members that served there have also received a lot more attention in the post no-nukes atmosphere of the 1970s and 1980s. The people have changed as well.

A new generation seems to embrace the attention that the UFO Crash brings each year. The 1994 Showtime Networks cable television film about the UFO Crash entitled, Roswell, renewed a lot of local interest in the crash and a reexamination of what really happened. That coincided with a call for the release of government documents about the UFO crash by the late Steven Schiff, a New Mexico Representative driven to make the inquiry by calls and letters from his constituents. The 1990s remained hot for Roswell with the 1997 publication of Colonel Corso’s book, The Day after Roswell, and the 1999 premier of Roswell, the TV Series (1999-2002).

Roswell is still a treasure house of undiscovered secrets. Proof of that comes from the people that still come forward with information about the things that happened in the town. Last year I was contacted by a man living in California who I’ll call Al. After listening to the rebroadcast of a radio program recorded a few years ago with the late Colonel Corso talking about the Roswell UFO crash, Al began to give some thought to something that had occurred earlier in his life.

Al moved to San Francisco, California, in 1964. Sometime in the winter of 1964-65, he was set up on a blind date with ‘a good-looking young blond woman.’ While he could not recall her name or where they went on the date, he did remember an unusual conversation they had at the end of the evening. At some point the young woman asked Al if he believed in the existence of other life forms or Alien life in the Universe. Al said he did and gave a few reasons why, which included the size of the Universe and the common scientific probabilities of the day. The young woman almost immediately gave affirmation to Al by saying something like, “Yea, you’re right,” and followed up with a most amazing story.

She was the daughter of an Air Force Chaplain. The family lived in Roswell and her father was serving on the base in the late 1940s. The young woman told him that sometime during dinner two men came to the door to get her dad. She recalled hearing them tell him that his services were needed. The incident caused such a stir in the household that everyone stayed up late until he returned.

Seeing that everyone was still awake, the Chaplain told his family that he was called to give religious comfort to some sort of Alien Life Forms near what seemed to be a crashed spacecraft. At least two of four creatures were still alive when he got there. He described them as looking a bit like adolescent boys, but obviously not human. No one knew what the creatures were or precisely how to care for them. As a result, all of the beings eventually perished. That was the crux of the story and the woman told Al that the family never discussed it in-depth again. Despite the lack of details, it presents an intriguing challenge and is typical of stories that pop up now and again.

Even more stunning are the revelations of the late Dr Michael Wolf, the ultimate U.S. Government insider. Introduced to him by my friend and fellow paranormal researcher Dick Criswell about twenty years ago, I was initially skeptical of some of his claims which included personal knowledge of various secret programs involving the government and aliens, technology gained from UFO crashes and agreements with aliens, and a UFO incident involving the late President John F. Kennedy (his wife was related to the Kennedy Family).

My skepticism vanished after a few conversations with him over the phone and various demonstrations of his political clout. If wouldn’t be unusual to find him speaking over the phone with Vice President Dan Quayle or former President Bill Clinton (Yes, it REALLY was them, not a joke or impersonation). I was also impressed by a mental exercise that he developed for the government. He called it The Gateway Treatment. It was disguised as a relaxation meditation that attracts positive energy and certainly accomplishes that goal, but it’s basically a way to mentally summon aliens.

Notoriously camera and press shy, he nevertheless felt compelled to share some of his amazing information and exploits with a few close friends and trusted paranormal researchers during the years shortly before his death in 2000. As a board member of the International Paranormal UFO Society, I am thrilled to announce the release of the only known video interview recorded with Dr Wolf on DVD entitled, DR MICHAEL WOLF: KEEPER OF COSMIC SECRETS. The video was filmed in 1998.

Those that look at the Roswell UFO Crash as case closed or believe that it a field that has already been farmed too many times do not understand the nature of the UFO subject or the power of the government cover-up. Years ago I spoke to a UFO witness. The event he observed occurred while he was in the military. He received calls at least once a month from people who said that they knew what happened and that he had better not talk about it.

Although he hadn’t told anyone except his immediate superior about the incident, people in high places seemed to know about it and the calls continued for years. Imagine the power of that kind of intimidation. Now imagine living in what became a government town during the 1940s. It wasn’t hard for anyone to imagine being locked up in some federal prison like Leavenworth if you happen to run afoul of federal authorities. Retired military personnel had even more to lose. They could end up in prison and forfeit any benefits, pay or pensions due them.

Sixty years after the Roswell UFO crash, we still do not have the entire story. However, that doesn’t mean there is no story. It just means that the U.S. Government has managed to convince most people that the idea of alien life forms visiting us is just not probable and that whatever crashed near Roswell isn’t something we need to be concerned about. Well, I beg to differ. The only thing that will come from trusting government officials to make all of the decisions while we remain blissfully ignorant is tyranny.

Bigfoot Does Cameos, Not Recurring Roles

The more you study the Bigfoot phenomenon, the more you bump into events and circumstances that warp the boundaries we’ve established. UFOs, missing time, disappearing Bigfoots…none of these jive with the just-an-ape theory. But one seemingly innocuous phenomenon has incited more debate than one would expect.

Witnesses who claim repeated encounters with Bigfoots.

I’ve heard various labels attached to these witnesses. On her website, Autumn Williams calls them long-term witnesses. Loren Coleman calls them Bigfoot contactees (a reference to the UFO contactee movement of the 1950s & 1960s). Why can’t we simply call them witnesses?

The need to label these witnesses seems silly. UFO witnesses who have more than one encounter rarely get labeled with a special designation. The UFO contactees were people who claimed to have had face-to-face encounters with ufonauts on spaceships—like George Adamski, the most famous contactee. Usually, the witness returned from the trip with a peaceful message or a benign warning for humanity to clean up its act.

Some Bigfoot witnesses claim to have had psychic communication from the creatures, with messages which relate themes similar to the what UFO contactees reported. Most repeat witnesses have no message for humanity. They have simply met Bigfoots on more than one occasion. When a witness starts to recount multiple sightings, why must we stamp a name on that person’s forehead? Instead, we should try to figure out why certain people have multiple encounters.

Of course, before we can do that, we must first apply the same credibility test to these witnesses as we use for incidental witnesses. We must treat them with respect, rather than snickering at them.

Supernatural Sasquatch

What two words do Bigfoot researchers revile more than any others? Paranormal and supernatural. But why do these two words stir up so much anger and angst?

“Don’t call Bigfoot paranormal!” the rant goes. “The Sasquatch is a flesh-and-blood animal, not some supernatural boogeyman.”

Yet, as I’ve discussed before, the word paranormal means simply “not scientifically explainable.” A giant, bipedal creature—whether you call him an ape or a hominid—wandering the backcountry of our world does defy accepted science. Their very existence makes Bigfoots scientifically unexplainable and, therefore, paranormal. I consider Bigfoots very much flesh-and-blood animals. Yet they are also paranormal; one does not preclude the other.

Paranormal and supernatural are essentially synonyms. Supernatural means “departing from what is usual or normal esp. so as to appear to transcend the laws of nature.” You might ask how a flesh-and-blood animal could transcend the laws of nature. But wait—there’s one little word in that definition that makes all the difference. The word is “appear.” Something supernatural appears to transcend the laws of nature. Appearing to do something and actually doing it are two different things.

The meat of the definition states that a supernatural event or being departs from what is usual or normal. A hairy, bipedal creature definitely departs from the normal. We can only guess wildly about how many Bigfoots live in any particular area, which means we have no evidence of how the species survives. Do they have a large enough population to procreate without detrimental inbreeding? We don’t know. Bigfoots appear to survive without a large population; therefore, they appear to transcend the laws of nature. That satisfies the definition of supernatural.

Once we understand what words mean, they cease to have power over us. For words have no power of their own—they possess only what power we ascribe to them.
