Russian UFO?
Thursday, July 23rd, 2009UFO’s from behind the Iron Curtain
Is it possible that there really are Aliens from other planets on earth or is this just crazy?
At first glance you have to rationally say these people are just crazy, however, with so many sightings over the years and so many people, who have reported these sightings, there appear to be at least some strange happenings, even if you are as skeptical as we are.
We are skeptical, of course we have never seen or experienced some of the reported sightings.
Does that mean that there are no sightings? No, it does not, mean that, much like the proverbial does the
tree make a noise in the woods if there is no one there to hear it or the just because you think someone is watching you does not mean you are paranoid.
Of course it could be just that, but we reserve our judgement, check out the book and let us know what you think.
Comics rare and unusual where to get them now
Thursday, July 23rd, 2009Here is an amazing deal on some very rare comics.
I was amazed to find these deals, I already own many of these comics and I am thinking of buying up these before they are gone, because they only made a few of them, I have no 3 and 4 in this series which you hardly find anywhere…
I never would have thought that you could find a good deal on rare comics on Amazon.com, but I found some of these comics to be extraordinary, rare and at a good price that is even more interesting, either people dont really know about this or it is not well advertised, anyway, if you get a chance take a look at what they have to offer I expect you will not be disappointed.
Do you believe in UFOs?
Wednesday, July 15th, 2009With all the tv shows and all the different opinions about UFOs you have to wonder, however if you take the definition of UFO it really just stands for Unidentified Flying Object, which could in fact be anything at all, anything that is unidentified.
So in reality, there are really two different thoughts on this subject, the one you hear the most about is the theory that aliens are on our planet, and the other one is that in fact, the UFO thing is explainable Unidentified flying objects.
Either way, to date we have not found any substantial evidence that aliens are at the bottom of any UFO sightings, but in the defense of those that do believe, there have been many unexplained sightings, however until we have evidence that defies examination, then we have to say that UFO are in fact just that.

Sunday, July 12th, 2009CSI Crime Scene Investigator
Thursday, July 9th, 2009These Tv shows are popular in fact they are so popular that there have been several spin off programs that have been created each with different types of content, many of the actual professional CSI technicians criticize these shows as being too easy of course when you have less than 45 min of programming time to work with minus the commercials you have to do something a little different.
The original show was good in fact, it was so good they made three more shows from that one, but only one of them really did well CSI Miami, and CSI new york, of those two you can get a different opinion about each, of course the lead Gary Sinise takes the cake hands down, against the lead for Miami, whom some say tends to pull his punches a little too much.
Either way the show is certainly popular and is sure to please the scientist at least most of the time, I have seen some of these shows that seem to just take the plot too far and some that dont go far enough, of course a good writer can make these things work better and a less talented writer well you know how that usually ends up.
The graphic nature of some of the shows sort of turns off the younger crowd mostly girls, however the technical schools are filled with would be CSI students, and there is no end in sight to the commercials you see on TV about becoming a CSI investigator.
The real life work is rarely as simple and easy as they show on TV and the music is definitely never as good.
However they do a good job at times of showing exactly how frustrating it can be dealing with suspects that dont want to get caught.
Criminal law is rarely portrayed in the correct manner, usually they show a pro prosecution standpoint, which is only one side of the story, the defense side of the story is rarely told, but again they do not have as much time as it would take to do the job right.
Production is a mess on these shows, with special effects taking a lot of budget potential and music also being a large part of the budget, often you might wonder if they are doing the right thing.
Entertainment is the way of these shows and that is something they do well.
Learning Reading the real way to go…
Thursday, July 9th, 2009There is rarely just one way to learn however, reading has long been the best way to learn. Learning by reading or by visual interoperation is the best method for retaining information.
With all the influence the media has on television and cable viewers one might incorrectly jump to the conclusion that reading is a by gone habit that is no longer as popular as it once was however, that may not be the truth at all considering that most college and university settings still use the written word over all other methods of interaction with students.
So for all the naysayers that think reading is a thing of the past, take a good solid look at Amazon.com and also take a good look at their sales figures, they sell a lot of stuff and reading is just one small part of the whole.
Read a book, learn a little more than you thought you knew and you will find that you have improved your life in the small amount of time it takes to read just this article you will have improved your hand to eye coordination and your comprehension, with all the recent hype that we see on the cable shows, you can get everything you want and know every news story in less than 15 minuets.
The next time you get ready to turn on the TV, grab a book instead…

The Gospel of Mary Magdalene
Sunday, July 19th, 2009Imagine what it must have been like to have known the man who saved the world.
Jean-Yves Leloup’s translation of the Gospel of Mary from the Coptic and his thorough and profound commentary on this text are presented here for the first time in English. The text emphasizes the eminence of the divine feminine and an abiding love of nature over the dualistic and ascetic interpretations of Christianity presented elsewhere. What emerges from this important source text and commentary is a renewal of the sacred feminine in the Western spiritual tradition.
