Earth Cinema Circle--Access Your Planetary Intelligence through Film


If you are looking for movies that enhance your environmental awareness and sense of wonder about our planet, check out the Earth Cinema Circle. This bi-monthly DVD club embodies the idea of planetary intelligence. They screen thousands of environmental movies every year and send you the best of them every other month. The films have wide-ranging themes from building homes from garbage and conservation, to celebrations of the diversity and magnitude of our Earth's natural beauty.
I like the whole concept behind this club as it increases our awareness of the connections between ourselves and all the different aspects of our universe. I'd feel better if they offered a free or low-cost trial month, but until then you can see free previews of these films at their website.

UFO Hunters on History Channel

I've been enjoying History Channel's new show "UFO Hunters" for some weeks now, shown on Wednesday nights. The program displays a blend of openmindedness and skepticism that is unusual for television shows. We've had our share of UFO shows that start out with fresh information in the first part of the show only to debunk that same information in the second half. But UFO Hunters is different. Headed up by Bill Byrnes of UFO Magazine, the show features a cast of believers and skeptics who go to different locations around the world each week to research past and present UFO mysteries. You'll never know exactly what they'll find in the various locales they visit, and in some cases, like the Rendelsham Forest/Bentwaters case in England in 1981, they found new eye-witnesses who contributed valuable information. My favorite part of the show is when they attempt to recreate weird effects experienced near UFO encounters with experiments producer Jon Tindle. In one case they were able to stop an engine in the lab with a strong, directed magnetic field duplicating the experience of UFOs affecting aircraft and car engines. In another, they temporarily disabled a personal computer with a blast from a Tesla field coil, showing how a UFO could theoretically disarm the control panel of a fighter aircraft. Some of the more interesting cases they have looked at include Catalina Island in 1980, Iran in 1976, and the recent Stephenville, TX sightings last January. The History Channel is to be commended for putting together such a fresh, educational, and fascinating TV show.

Opening Minds Interview -- 48 Update

Here's an interview with 48 Update, a public access channel show in Philadelphia, that first aired in 2003. The host, Katharine Pew, asks about the ideas I discuss in Opening Minds and to introduce the ideas of remote viewing, crop circles, and other topics covered in the book. She did a great job with the interview especially given that these concepts were mostly brand new to her.

Fox News Clip on Crop Circles

The media can often put out disastrously incomplete information about alternative science topics. In this case though, Fox News did a good job covering the weirdness and beauty of crop circles. This was originally broadcast in 2001. (The volume is a little low here so turn up your speakers.)

Stephenville, TX UFO Sightings--See Video and Hear the Eyewitnesses

The recent UFO sitings in Stephenville, TX and surrounding areas caused quite a stir and drew some media attention. Witnesses described seeing a very large craft, as large as one mile across, smaller lights, and jets in hot pursuit. The Air Force offers no explanation except to say that they had 10 F-16s in the area that night. But they didn't say anything about the very large object. What the videos below show us is that the sitings have been happening for weeks. What we see from video tape is one of objects that rapidly moves and loops around in the sky. Could this filmed object be an experimental military vehicle? Sure, but what about the very large object that blocked out stars, according to witnesses, moved rapidly, as fast as thousands of miles and hour, and then came to a complete stop over the area before zipping away? Perhaps our test vehicles drew the unexpected attention of other visitors.

New Robert Dean UFO Interviews

Retired Command Sergeant Major Robert O. Dean is a key witness for the existence of extraterrestrial and UFO activity on Earth. Serving with the U.S. army in NATO headquarters in Paris in the 1960's, Dean came across a classified book and supporting materials that clearly documented different species of extraterrestrials that were known by the military to be on and around our planet. See his amazing testimony in three video segments presented at Project Camelot investigations.

Turkish "UFO"--What in the world is this?

If you are looking for new and old UFO videos, YouTube is always a plus. I recently came across this short video, apparently filmed in Turkey, of what appear to be an object or objects made of glowing plasmas. We first see the object ensconced in tree branches in a forest, and then a few minutes later, the objects goes aloft. It reminds me of what a flying dragon of yore might look like. I can't help but think how similar this object, with its shimmering, glowing qualities, is to balls of light seen near crop circles. Are they connected in some way? Is this object alive? If you know of some obvious explanation of what this is, I'd be glad to hear it. Otherwise, I'm calling this a "balls of light apparition" for lack of better understanding.
