#2. On Witness Intimidation - The Debunkers' Basic Weapon
(By Budd Hopkins-Intruders Foundation)
After decades of dealing with debunkers' attacks upon anyone
re****ting UFO abductions, I am still amazed at the ill-informed and
often cruel nature of these published assaults. I am not referring
here to diatribes against investigators like myself, because, as
Harry Truman pointed out, to be in the kitchen involves a certain
amount of heat. Instead, I mean attacks against the abductees
themselves, the innocent men, women and children who have dared to
re****t their suspicions of ongoing UFO experiences.

#3. When UFOs Arrive
(By Jim Wilson)
When UFOs land, a series of plans created to deal with nuclear
emergencies and biological attacks will be activated.
Within the scientific community, the question is no longer whether
extraterrestrial life exists, but if ET is smart enough to do long
division. Scientists are of two minds regarding the existence of
extraterrestrial intelligence. Skeptics acknowledge simple life-
forms might be found on other planets, but insist that intelligent
life is unique to Earth. Their belief is based on the assumption
that Earth possesses unique physical attributes, including a
magnetic field that deflects cosmic rays and a moon that absorbs
asteroids. Together, these protective features make Earth a rare
safe harbor--one that nurtured the evolution of primitive life-forms
into intelligent beings. The opposing camp sees the prospect for
discovering alien life in more mathematical terms. Its touchstone is
the Drake Equation, which links the probability of discovering
extraterrestrial intelligence to factors such as the size of the
universe and the number of stars with earthlike planets. With the
discovery of each new planet beyond Earth's solar system--there are
now more than 100--the odds of encountering intelligent alien life
increase. Governments and international organizations around the
world have taken notice of the changing odds. No governmental
official has gone on record claiming that UFOs are real, let alone a
threat. Yet with little public fanfare, they have begun preparing
for the single most im****tant event in human history: first contact.
That is, the moment earthlings discover incontrovertible proof that
they are not alone.

#4. Edgar Cayce on Atlantis
(By Doug Yurchey)
The following re****t reviews one of the best books ever written. Any
major bookstore should carry it. The book is not very thick. Don't
let that fool you. 'Edgar Cayce on Atlantis', by Edgar Evans Cayce
contains volumes of credible information from the days of Atlantis.
Unlike other books on Atlantis, psychic Edgar Cayce TAKES YOU THERE;
opens a window so you can view images of prehistory. I encourage all
of you to pick up this small book; take the words to heart and learn
of events in Antediluvian times.

#5. Skull Details Suggest Neanderthals Were Not Humans
(By John Noble Wilford)
Ever since their discovery in the 19th century, Neanderthals have
been like the uncomfortably odd relatives who show up at a family
reunion. Should they be seated with the closest kin, sent to the
back of the room with the distant cousins or tossed out as rank
interlopers, despite a family resemblance?

#6. Scientists Ponder Over Putting off Doomsday
It was believed for a long period that there could be no protection
from meteorites.
Scientists say that protection of the planet from meteorites is
getting [to be] a rather burning idea. As [it] is known, large
meteorites hit the Earth approximately once in one million of years.
At that, the International Institute of Asteroid Danger estimated
that the planet collides [with] objects of 50 meters in size once in
100 years on average.

#7. Trusting Your Sources
(By David E. Twichell)
With all of the information out there concerning the UFO/abduction
phenomenon, complete understanding of its mechanism is a next to
impossible task. Type "UFO" into Google and you will find almost
four million sites on the subject. Most of these sites are
nonsensical or highly speculative in nature. There are a lot of
them, however, that offer well known or little known cases by
respected scientists, UFOlogists, PhDs or honest, credible citizens
who have witnessed unknown craft and/or their occupants. How does
one discriminate between them?

#8. Coelacanth found at Sodwana
Johannesburg - A coelacanth - a pre-historic fish once thought to be
extinct and now known as "the living fossil" - was discovered last
week by divers in Sodwana Bay.
African Coelacanth Ecosystem Programme (Acep) programmes manager
Tony Ribbink said on Monday the fish was found at the unusually
shallow depth of 54m.
"In scientific studies of coelacanths done since they were first
rediscovered in 1938, they've never been observed in water shallower
than 100m," he said.
