Obama and the David Clusters

Synchronicities involving clusters of names, numbers, songs – virtually anything can be a cluster – are among the most intriguing. This one, brought to our attention by Nicholas (Sansego) centers on President Obama.

++

This past weekend, I learned that David Maraniss has a new biography out on President Obama. I thought this was interesting because I hadjust completed reading the most comprehensive biography on Obama, The Bridge, by David Remnick. Before that, the previous biography that one needed to read to understand Obama was Obama: From Promise to Powerby David Mendell.

That’s when I said, “Wait a minute! Three writers named David wrote well research biographies about Obama? Then I thought about two of Obama’s campaign staff: David Axelrod and David Plouff. What’s up with all the Davids regarding Obama? What do you think of that? I’ve never seen one person connected to so many names (well, since I read in a biography about Jacqueline Kennedy about how many Jacks she had in her life).

If Obama had a son, he would have to name him “David”!

+++

When I first read Nicholas’ email, my first thought was David and Goliath.  Is Obama a kind of David, up against the Goliaths of corporations and big money? Can he bring them down with a sling shot and a few stones?

Dog Fight in New Mexico

I’m always amazed that when we put energy into a project – a proposal, a book or novel –  we suddenly receive emails that pertain to what we’re writing about. Law of attraction, synchronicity, whatever it is, the last few days have been filled with it.

 This afternoon I received an email from Kerry, who lives in Costa Rica now (one of our favorite countries) and was a fan of my books back in the 1980s, when I was first starting out.  She had Googled me, found the website for my fiction, and sent me an email. During our exchange, she dropped by the blog and read one of the UFO stories then sent her recollection of an experience she had in 1970. The Air Force base she mentions lies about 135 miles East of Roswell, New Mexico.

**

My first husband was Air Force and I remember when we were stationed at Holloman AFB New Mexico.  Reading your blog brought it all back to me.

We had taken a camper high into the Mogollon Mountains. This was about 1970 or so, and we camped near a hanging lake.  At night the stars were almost bright enough to read by.  About 9 PM we were watching the sky when we saw lights moving at tremendous speeds and stopping and changing directions almost instantaneously.

We witnessed what appeared to be a dog fight in the sky between about 6 sources of light over a 30 minute period.  It scared us to death, and I remember it as though it were yesterday.  Several Air Force officers were with us, and when we got back to base we found out that some dead sheep had been found eviscerated on the White Sands Missile Range.

Two of the officers were pilots and they watched the exhibition,  fascinated. They confirmed that no jet they had ever flown could perform like what we were watching.

How many more incidents like this were never reported?

Foreign Accent Syndrome

                                                  from Deviant Art

 

For some years now, there’s been a pharmaceutical ad on TV about a drug that supposedly treats something called restless leg syndrome. Rob and I used to get quite a kick out the ad when it came on. We’d never heard about the syndrome and figured it was an ailment created by a drug company, so they could produce  the remedy and make a ton of dough. Cynical, I know.

Then a few years after this ad first appeared, I met a guy at our gym who had restless leg syndrome.  The first question that came to mind was if he actually suffered from this syndrome or if these pharmo ads had brainwashed him into believing he had it. Yes, again, it’s cynical.

So recently I was browsing the Internet and came across this interesting story about a 40-year-old woman from Birmingham, England, who emerged from a bout of flu- and a series of seizures – and now speaks with a French accent, a “Gallic twang,” as the Mirror UK describes it.

Yet, Debie Royston has never been to France.  In the article linked above, with the Mirror, she said, “I had a bad seizure and when it stopped my mouth wouldn’t work. Over the next month, I had to learn to speak again. But when I did, I heard a different sound, not my Brummie accent. I sounded French but I’ve never even been there. People say to me, ‘Where are you from?’ and when I say ‘Birmingham’ they say, ‘No, you’re French’.”

Apparently Debie is one of 60 people worldwide who suffer from the syndrome. I Googled it and Wikipedia offered this and what’s written below:

“Irregular repetitive speech syndrome is a rare medical condition involving speech repetition that usually occurs as a side effect of severe brain injury, such as a stroke or head trauma. Those suffering from the condition pronounce their native language with an accent that to listeners may be mistaken as foreign or dialectical. Two cases have been reported of individuals with the condition as a development problem and one associated with severe migraine.  Between 1941 and 2009 there have been sixty recorded cases.”

Could this be some sort of past-life seeping through as a result of her seizures? Or is it an actual emerging phenomenon? Or is it both? The story is vaguely reminiscent of The Search for Bridey Murphy, the 1952 story about a housewife, Virginia Tighe, from Pueblo, Colorado who, when hypnotically regressed, recalled a life in the 19th century as an Irishwoman and her rebirth in the United States 59 years later. I remember reading this book at some point in the late 1960s and being impressed by it. But then, I was eager to find any proof about reincarnation.

Some of the details that Tighe provided about Bridey Murphy’s life didn’t pan out. But others did. Wikipedia again: “Her descriptions of the Antrim coastline were very accurate. So, too, was her account of a journey from Belfast to Cork. She claimed she went to a St. Theresa’s Church. There was indeed one where she said there was, but it was not built until 1911. The young Bridey shopped for provisions with a grocer named Farr. It was discovered that such a grocer had existed.”

So are Debie Royston and the 59 others on the planet who share her condition, tapped into a past life or is it just some blip in the firing of neurons, some random anomaly that no one understands?

Or is the Foreign Accent Syndrome an emerging side effect, like planetary empaths,  of an emerging paradigm?  Other articles on the empaths are linked here,  here,  here, and here.

‘Supreme’ dream synchro

Occasionally, I have dreams that have no images, no strong emotional context, but are idea-based. Such dreams might involve the repetition of a phrase over and over again. It’s as if my dreaming self is telling me to remember. Don’t forget. Wake up, write it down. Rather than multi-dimensional, these dreams can feel very two-dimensional  – like the image above.

One such dream I recall oddly enough featured the Supreme Court. There were no images of court members, not any issues before the court, not even a gavel pounding the bench. Only the words: Supreme court decision. Except ‘decision’ came out slurred in a non-sensical word. But later, when I said it quickly to myself, I realized it sounded very close to ‘decision.’

Supreme court decision. I remember wondering what could this mean, and thinking what a boring dream, and thinking that while I was dreaming!

There was one other element in the dream: the color green. So as some part of me was spewing out, Supreme court decision  over and over again, I thought of the meaning of green, and tried to analyze the dream while it was taking place. I thought that green might indicate an important court decision related to the environment.

I also thought of green light, as in the court giving the go-ahead. I thought maybe it related to the issue of the moment, the national health care program and the mandate that every adult buy health insurance. But that decision isn’t expected until sometime in June. So why was I dreaming about a decision is early April?

I forgot about the dream until April 16 when we were driving home from Orlando after a visit with daughter Megan. I don’t know why it came to mind, but I mentioned it to Trish.

An hour later, we arrived home and picked up the mail and newspaper. There on the front page of that day’s paper was a detailed analysis of the health care issue before the supreme court.  As a former journalist, I always glance at the by-lines of articles. When I looked at this one, I smiled. The name at the top of the article was Laura Green.

There was my color. A synchro. Why I picked up on it at week or so in advance is just one of the mysteries of the dream world.

The Upside-down Mountain Saga

The man in the photo is a resident Bugarach, France, who is saying, “Don’t come to my village for the end of the world.”

Okay. We won’t.

But apparently thousands think it’s the place to be Dec. 21 when the Mayan Calendar runs out of days. The reason is that the French village of 200 is nestled at the base of a peculiar mountain that is attracting the throngs who hope aliens will save them from the end of the world.

According to The Inquisitr, the pilgrims, already more than 20,000, believe that when Doomsday arrives, aliens will appear in UFOs at Pic de Bugarach to rescue all people awaiting them. They will be flown off and relocated for the dawning of a new age. BBC reports that for years, there have been rumors circulated on Internet that Pic de Bugarach is home to powerful aliens and that on apocalypse day, December 21, the top of the mountain will open and the UFOs will emerge to rescue those gathered in the area.

The mountain is called the “upside-down mountain” because, according to geologists, its top layer is an overthrust from the Iberian plate, and is older than the bottom ones. According to French tradition, the mountain inspired Jules Verne’s “Journey to the Center of the Earth” and Steven Spielberg’s Close Encounters of the Third Kind.

The local authorities have grown nervous about the goings-on in the area, fearing the possibility of a mass action such as suicide. They have asked the French government to move troops into the area for security. According to The Independent, more than 100,000 are expected to come to the mountain in time for the 21 December “beaming up” of believers aboard UFOs.

BBC reports that a special parliamentary committee has warned that the sects may commit mass suicides in 2012 if the spaceships do not come to save them. A report alleges some people have bought land in the mountains and are planning to building bunkers where they may survive the expected catastrophe at the end of the world.

The mayor says the villagers are worried about these goings-on: “We’ve seen a huge rise in visitors. Already this year more than 20,000 people have climbed right to the top, and last year we had 10,000 hikers, which was a significant rise on the previous 12 months. They think Pic de Bugarach is ‘un garage à ovnis’ [an alien garage]. The villagers are exasperated: the exaggerated importance of something which they see as completely removed from reality is bewildering. After 21 December, this will surely return to normal.”

Not to outdone by the French, some American travel agents apparently are offering special one-way deals  to Amageddon.

We are weary of the Dec. 21 hype – and have been so for some time – but we couldn’t pass up this one. After all, you don’t hear much about upside-down mountains.

More Dog Park Politics

 

 

Now that we’ve got two dogs, we try to get to the dog park regularly – like every day.  When that’s not possible – weather, other commitments – we take Nika and Noah down to the dog park in our neighborhood.  They have the place to themselves, enjoy sniffing around and battling over the Frisbee, but we can tell it’s just not the same experience as the real dog park.

During our visit to the dog park the other day, we see this very weird German shepherd prowling the fence as we approach the gate. There’s something wrong with this dog, Rosie.  We’ve seen her before, and we suspect her owner is a diehard, extremist Republican and that she may be the canine version!

As soon as Nika steps inside the gate, Rosie is all over her, a hundred plus pounds versus 42 pounds. But Nika, who is just ten months old and used to playing with Noah – a BIG Golden Retriever, 100 pounds of muscle – defends herself valiantly. Yet, she invariably ends up on her back, whimpering.

So the other day, Rosie is making Nika’s life miserable and Trish is trying to snap the leash on her so we can take her to another part of the park, and Rob is pushing Rosie away from our dog. Rosie’s owner comes rushing over, shouting, “Hey, hey, stop pushing my dog. She doesn’t have a mean or hostile  bone in her body!”

“Then get her away from our dog!” Rob snaps.

“They’re just playing.”

Uh, no, beg to differ. Rosie is attacking Nika. There’s  a difference between dogs who are playing and dogs who are seriously attacking. The difference lies in body language, bared teeth. Rush Limbaugh is like Rosie. Oh, I’m just an entertainer, I don’t mean to defile or damage anyone.

So Rob gets Rosie off of Nika, and we head toward another part of the park. But en route, Rosie’s human makes a big mistake – he grabs Rob’s shoulder. Rob, who is so physically fit and flexible from the gym and yoga that he puts everyone else to shame, pushes Rose’s human away from him. And wow, then profanities fly. “What the f**!! is wrong with you, man? I’ve been nothing but courteous to you, you can’t come in here and push my dog around and then shove me.”

Really? You pushed Rob first, guy.Then I’m thinking, Uh-oh. This guy is asking for trouble. Rob is the most non-violent person I’ve ever known – until the other person makes a move first. Then all bets are off.

Meanwhile, I’m just trying to get Nika and Noah into another part of the dog park, where there’s a fence between us and this weirdo. We finally get into the smaller park and Rosie, oddball dog that she is, races along the fence, still trying to get at Nika. Rosie tries to dig a hole under the fence. She drools, salivates, barks, moans. She’s like Limbaugh going on for days about whatever his current pet peeve is,  twisting facts to fit his agenda.

After that, we skipped a few days at the park and today went over there early, before Limbaugh and Rosie had arrived. Our friend Karin was there with Cody, a husky and Noah’s best friend last summer. I told her the story about Rosie and Limbaugh. She just shook her head.

“Sometimes, it’s like high school here. Cliques, politics, and bullshit.” She gazed wistfully at the larger park that has been closed  since late January so that the city can build a pavilion large enough to accommodate humans when it rains, or it’s windy or cold or   scorching hot. “They need to open the larger part of the dog park. We get on each other’s nerves here.”

Yes, we do. Liberals and conservatives rarely mix well. Their pets tend to reflect that. Rosie, I’m sorry to report, is a conservative extremist who feels she absolutely must overpower every smaller dog in the park while her human shouts, There’s not a hostile bone in her body! Nika, I’m happy to report, is a joyful liberal who will defend herself when she must but is happiest just doing her thing –greeting everyone with licks and a wiggling whisper, Hey, dude,  you on my side?

The dogs know. They get it.  Dog park politics is human politics on a smaller, more intimate  scale.

Thrive, the Movie

Our post, Atlas Shrugged Turned on Its Head, brought comments from a couple of individuals who wanted to know what system we advocated if capitalism is so corrupt. Here’s the answer.

This documentary is stunning. It’s narrated and financed by a visionary named Foster Gamble, who rejected his path as a scion of the Proctor & Gamble fortune and chose to seek another more equitable path. Here you will learn about new energy and its connection with ancient wisdom, a hint about the meaning of crop circles, while the last half deals with the forces fighting to maintain the status quo and how they do it.

As Daz says, Thrive should be shown everywhere, and quickly. There’s a synchro in here for us, too, given the proposal we’re working on now. But more on that later. Here’s the movie, courtesy of You Tube.

Twitter Hack

If you follow us on Twitter, we apologize for any direct message that reputedly came from us about how you are the subject of a nasty rumor. Do NOT click that link. Our twitter account was hacked after our synchro books editor’s twitter account was hacked and we responded to her. Sigh.  The hack was actually clever: nasty rumors about you. Really?? Rumors? Who did I piss off?

These idiots apparently have a lot of time on their hands and enjoy stirring up mischief. At any rate, we corrected the problem and apologize to anyone who was affected.

If you were hacked, you should:

1. Report it to twitter. We couldn’t find a link for that.

2. Disable all associated accounts – and change the passwords on those accounts and on your twitter account.

3. Test your new passwords.

4. Tell the hackers to get a life.

The Hurricane Mind Challenge

Here is a meteorological challenge for anyone interested. You don’t have to be psychic to participate, but that might help!

Every year, the National Oceanic Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) and Colorado State University issue hurricane forecasts for the season, which goes from June 1 to November 30. They predict the number of named storms, the number of storms that will be hurricanes of category 3 or above, and how many will make landfall, and how many will hit the continental U.S.

Some years, they are fairly close in their estimates. Other years, not so much. They have been known to  backtrack in mid-season, re-assess and re-write their predictions. Not fair. Sounds like cheating, in our opinion. Let’s see if we can do better.

So please sharpen your intuition and take part in our Hurricane Watch 2012 Sweepstakes by addressing three of those issues: 1) how many named storms will form between June 1-Nov. 30, 2)  how many will be Cat 3 hurricanes or higher, and 3) how many  hurricanes (cat. 1 & above)  will hit the U.S.

One stipulation. Please don’t look up any predictions that have already been made. Keep your logical mind out of the picture. This is an intuitive quest.

But to give you a reference point.  Last year, there were 19 named storms, four major hurricanes and one struck the continental U.S. – Irene, a cat. 3, which hit North Carolina. And just to start things off, we’ll make our prediction here and now: 8 named storms, 3 hurricanes, and 0 U.S. landfalls. (Of course, living in South Florida, we are somewhat biased in our prediction on that last category!)

Good luck. We’ll accept entries until May 10. Tell you friends. If you hit it right in all three categories, you will receive a free flight into the eye of a Cat 5 hurricane, courtesy of the National Weather Bureau’s hurricane tracker program. (Sorry – just kidding on the prize, but you will get an ‘I beat NOAA Hurricane Forecasters’ certificate!)

MILABS

This acronym refers to alien abductees who see military personnel during their abductions or where the abduction occurs on or near a military base. Karla Turner, who was an abductee herself, did an extensive amount of research on this aspect of abductions.   She was a college professor, had a doctorate in Old English studies, but quit teaching after she and her husband and son began recalling their own abduction experiences.She also wrote three books – Into the Fringe, Taken: Inside the Alien-Human Abduction Agenda,  and Masquerade of Angels, now out of print, but available in PDF format, linked above with her name.  She died in 1996 of a rapidly advancing breast cancer.

I thought I was fairly knowledgeable about the players in the UFO community, but had never heard of Karla Turner or her books until a friend, Jennifer White, mentioned her. So today, I did a Google search on Turner and unearthed so much material on this woman that it’s difficult to know where to start.

In a tribute to her in UFO Magazine,  John Chambers listed Turner’s “facts” about aliens:

  • We don’t know with any certainty what they are.
  • At least some of the aliens lie.
  • During encounters, they control our perceptions.
  • They can implant false memories.
  • What we report about them is what they want us to report.
  • From childhood, they manipulate us physically, spiritually, sexually.
  • The alien agenda has physical aims and procedures that have nothing to do with reproduction.
  • They create virtual reality scenarios that are absolutely real to the abductees.
  • They show an extraordinary interest in human souls and in our thoughts.
  • There is some element of human involvement in UFO phenomenon.

Turner suspected that the military was sometimes involved in these abduction scenarios. This certainly is true for a story we posted in In 2010. The Abduction details the harrowing abduction  that CJ  (mathmajick)  experienced at Warner Robins Air Force base in 1981, where military personnel and Grays were present.

Turner’s research found that the extraterrestrials known as the Grays were beings from Zeta Reticuli. They  abduct humans and take them to alien ships and alien bases located underground and on the ocean floor. It sounds pretty far out when you read these words, right? But when you hear Turner talking about these things in the You Tube video above or in any of the others where she’s discussing the alien agenda, it doesn’t seem outlandish at all. That’s how well-spoken she was.

In fact, on any of the videos, the one thing that comes across clearly is that the aliens are not friendly. They are not the cute, lovable little guy in ET. Turner believed that the aliens were engaged in a propaganda war to convince us that they are more benevolent than they actually are.

This question about the nature of aliens is an intriguing one that divides both abductees and researchers. Author and investigator Budd Hopkins maintained they were not benevolent and never changed his mind about that. In his fascinating memoir, Art, Life and UFOs,  he has a chapter on John Mack, the author (Abduction) and Harvard psychiatrist who investigated abductions. The two were friends for 15 years and toward the end of Mack’s life, Hopkins wrote, he “seemed determined to believe, despite a complete lack of supporting evidence, that the UFO occupants were here to help us humans, and once went so far as to ask an abductee who had been particularly traumatized not to come back to his support group until he understood that the aliens were essentially benevolent.”

Turner felt the aliens might be creating virtual reality constructs of cross-breeding to suggest that we share commonalities with them and that they need us.  But she was certain that their goal is to “debase and lower our self-view and to break down our resistances.”

She also provided suggestions for abductees that are worth noting:

  • Educate yourself about the phenomenon. In knowledge lies some control over the situation.
  • Release fear. Turner believed that negative entities maintain control through fear. Anger, she said, is a better defense than fear.
  •  Abductees should be aware of how they’re reacting; they should learn to step out of themselves, and to maintain perspective.
  • Maintain a good quality of life.
  • Be realistic about what can and cannot be done.
  • Stay close to your families.
  • Confide your experiences to others. “The hell with the results,” said Turner. “You don’t need the burden of carrying this around.”

“If the terrors of the abduction experience made us grow stronger,” Turner said,  “it was not because the aliens wanted us to have this strength, but because we willed it ourselves.”

This video has some startling statistics about the numbers of missing people worldwide.
