More Odd, Changing Aerial Light Patterns, Now Over Beavercreek, Oregon

March 12, 2009  Beavercreek, Oregon -  On January 29, 2009, I filed a 2-part Earthfiles report about more mysterious, multi-colored aerial light patterns photographed over Reno, Nevada, and Empire, Ohio. A week later, I received an email from a retired Wisconsin businessman in rural Elmwood, Wisconsin, who has taken more than one hundred digital still frames of a reappearing bright, aerial object. His images like all the others appear to be 3-dimensional, multi-colored patterns in the sky, changing shape every second or two.

Final Part 20: Army/CIA Unit Studied the Real UFO Blue Book Cases

“I do remember reading a CIA file on Harry Truman in which he was talking about the Cold War starting and that there were aliens from outer space and some looked like little humans and some looked like insects.”

- “Stein,” Former Army/CIA UFO Analyst

First Secretary of Defense James V. Forrestal from September 17, 1947, to March 28, 1949, with U. S. President Harry S. Truman, undated.

Return to Part 19

March 8, 2009  Albuquerque, New Mexico -  The previous Part 19 was my August 7, 1998, phone call with Stein about the two men who stopped him in a supermarket parking lot, showed Stein photographs of himself from the 1950s southeastern base period as well as 1998 photos of Stein's only son at work and home, and told Stein that if he continued to work with me, his son would come to harm. But Stein agreed to consider my traveling to his home again with a small videotape crew to record his whole CIA Project Blue Book story, to be held by me until after his death before public distribution. Through the U. S. mail, I sent him a letter with proposed details for the taping and a non-disclosure letter signed and dated by me that confirmed I would not use the videotape until after his death. Our goal was for me to arrive at his home with a crew in mid-September 1998.

Unexplained Stranding of 200 Pilot Whales and Dolphins

“An effort was made in the large King Island stranding to return the animals to deeper water, but in some cases, the animal turned around from deeper water and went straight back to the beach.”

- Scott Baker, Ph.D., OSU Marine Mammal Institute

“It is pretty darn sad, you can hear them crying.”

- John Nievaart, King Island, Tasmania resident

200 pilot whales (species of dolphin) and a few bottle-nosed dolphins began mass stranding on Sunday, night, March 1, 2009, at a King Island beach above. On March 2, 2009, about 50 animals were saved by human volunteers (below) and the rest died. King Island is in the Bass Strait between northern Tasmania, an Australian state, and Melbourne, Australia. Image courtesy Liz Wren, Tasmanian Parks and Wildlife Service.

On March 2, 2009, volunteers saved about fifty of the 200 pilot whales (dolphins) and bottle-nosed dolphins that beached on King Island north of Tasmania beginning on March 1, 2009. An unusual series of strandings has occurred since early Nov. 2008, when 60 pilot whales were stranded not far from King Island; on Nov. 29, 2008, 150 pilot whales and dolphins stranded and all died near King Island; in January 2009, 50 sperm whales stranded and all died near King Island. Scientists are puzzled by the the unexplained series of cetacean beachings. Image courtesy Liz Wren, Tasmanian Parks and Wildlife Service.

“One of the biggest mass beachings in Australia, 200 pilot whales came ashore on King Island on Sunday evening, March 1, only 54 of which are still alive. Among the whales are a number of dolphins, according to Chris Arthur, from Tasmania's Parks and Wildlife. Around 150 local people are helping parks officials in trying to refloat the whales from a Naracoopa beach and shepherd them back to sea, where a large number of whales were still milling in a pod.”

March 6, 2009  Newport, Oregon - Scientists who study whales and dolphins are puzzled about repeated strandings of large numbers of pilot whales – which are actually large dolphins – and other dolphins and sperm whales on or around King Island north of the Australian state, Tasmania. There was also highly strange – perhaps unprecedented behavior – in Manila Bay, Philippines, last month on February 10, 2009, when 500 melon-headed dolphins filled Manila Bay and swam back and forth as if completely disoriented.

Part 2: Silicas – and Hot Springs? – Could Mean Ancient Life On Mars

“To be honest, what would surprise me the most would be if life never was on the planet Mars. That would be surprising and give us all some pause and make us wonder – why?”

- Dorothy Z. Oehler, Ph.D, NASA Johnson Space Center

Return to Part 1

February 27, 2009  Houston, Texas - Other scientists studying a completely different part of Mars in Arabia Terra have also discovered features they think are the residue of hot springs, largely based on the tell-tale oval rings that closely resemble hot springs in Yellowstone National Park and Dalhousie, Australia. In a recent issue of Astrobiology, NASA Johnson Space Center planetary geologists described one mound on Mars named Vernal crater that could be a dried up hot springs?

Unprecedented Northeast Bat Die-off Spreading Rapidly

“People are starting to comb through old historic records to see, but there is no evidence that I know of anywhere in the fossil record, or in recent recorded history, of a die-off of this nature in bats.”

Return to Part 18

February 24, 2009  Albuquerque, New Mexico -  At the end of Part 18, of my June 29, 1998, interview with Stein at his Florida home, he was talking about the Wackenhut security firm that worked with the CIA in the 1950s. It was also Wackenhut in Coral Gables, Florida, that his phone manager friend told him [ See Stein Earthfiles Part ] was the source of the first call to Stein warning him not to talk with me further about the name of the southeastern military base or its activities during the Cuba stand-off with the Soviet Union or its alleged assassin squad assigned to termination missions. During his work for the Army/CIA unit that studied real UFO Blue Book cases, Stein said, “We could call Wackenhut for background checks on civilians coming to do work. Wackenhut is a worldwide security firm with offices in Europe.”

February 21, 2009  Albuquerque, New Mexico - NASA landed the two Mars rovers, Spirit and Opportunity, near the Martian equator on opposite sides of the red planet in January 2004. The goal was to look for evidence of water. Spirit and Opportunity recently came out of 2008 winter hibernation and started their fifth Martian spring of exploring.

Fluorescence Mystery in Red Rain Cells of Kerala, India 

“ ...Organisms replicating at 300 degrees Celsius and showing this kind of autofluorescence are currently unknown to exist on earth, which is again an indication supporting the view that these cells are possibly extraterrestrial.”

February 14, 2009  Kerala, India   - Three years ago in the April 4, 2006, journal Astrophysics and Space Science was a published paper entitled: “The Red Rain Phenomenon of Kerala and Its Possible Extraterrestrial Origin.” Kerala is on the Malabar Coast in southwestern India. The astrophysical paper was about an event that occurred in July to September 2001 - and several summers since - when raindrops falling on Kerala stained peoples’ clothes. White T-shirts were covered with pinkish-red rain splatters and residents wondered what was happening?

Update and Podcast: Trends Journal Forecasts 2009 Economic Depression

Click for podcast.  

A depression is any economic downturn where real gross domestic product (GDP) declines by more than 10%. A recession is the reduction of a country's gross domestic product (GDP) for at least two quarters. A Bloomberg News survey reported February 12, 2009:   “This is the biggest U.S. economic decline since 1946 as consumer spending posts its longest slide on record.”

February 12, 2009:  Cong. Budget Office Reports Record $1.2 Trillion Federal Debt in 2009, Bringing Total National Debt to $10.6 Trillion.

Total federal indebtedness has nearly doubled in ten years and every individual (305 million people) in the United States would have to contribute $37,000 each to now pay off the national debt.
