Another paradigm-shattering piece from the Thunderbolts crew

The more I look into this Electric Universe theory the more it makes sense. Their explanation for comets solves a lot of the inconsistencies in Comet Theory:

Comets are electrical discharges in the thin plasma that permeates the solar system. Because they spend most of their time far from the Sun, their rocky nuclei are in equilibrium with the voltage at that distance. But as they accelerate in toward the Sun, their voltage is increasingly out of equilibrium with the voltage and increasing density of the solar plasma. A plasma sheath forms around them—the coma and tail. And filamentary currents—jets—between the sheath and the nucleus erode, particle by powdery particle, the circular depressions with terraced walls that are typical of electrical discharge machining. As the discharge channels move across the surface of the comet, they burn it black.

Are We Seeing The End Of America?

Hard-hitting conversation between Noami Wolf and journalist Don Hazen. Link.

You can't underplay how sophisticated the Bush team has been about manipulating our fears. And one reason we really can't ignore is our home-grown ignorance. We now have two generations of young people who don't know about civics. A study came out that showed that even Harvard freshmen really don't understand how our government works.

Former Pilots & Officials Call for US UFO Probe

An international panel of two dozen former pilots and government officials called on the U.S. government on Monday to reopen its generation-old UFO investigation as a matter of safety and security given continuing reports about flying discs, glowing spheres and other strange sightings. Link.

Storm Worm Botnet now "more powerful than world's top supercomputer"

The Storm Worm Botnet, a massive network of infected Windows PCs spanning the world, has now enslaved enough computers to rival the processing power of top military computers. This is incredible.

"If you calculate pure theoretical throughput, then I'm sure the botnet has more capacity than IBM's BlueGene. If you sat them down to play chess, the botnet would win."

The Vatican And The Knights Templar

Very interesting article about hidden Church societies. Link.

Almost from their founding, the Templars have been rumored

a.) to still exist 

b.) to be impossibly rich, and 

c.) to guard the Holy Grail (the cup from which Jesus drank at the Last Supper) and other Christian relics.

Shrivelling UFOs

Great editorial from the UFO Iconoclasts about the importance of belief in UFOlogy. Link.

Without some kind of dynamic evidence, the UFO phenomenon is doomed to die, if only because media, government agencies, and the public cannot sustain interest in such an evanescent presence.

Yes, UFOs have appeared and continue to appear in the skies but without some kind of specific tangibility, all persons, except UFO fanatics, will, psychologically, place the phenomenon on a mental backburner, maybe even dismissing the subject matter altogether, which is already beginning to happen.

Knights Templar Absolved By The Vatican

"This is proof that the Templars were not heretics. The Pope was obliged to ask pardon from the knights.

"For 700 years we have believed that the Templars died as cursed men, and this absolves them."

Caret Drone: Hoaxed

Why do people do this? The impressive Caret Drone UFO footage ends up being part of a video for a crap tune. I always thought there was something fishy about it. The images seemed too clean to my eye. Link.

Richard Dolan At The X-Conference 2007

Dolan, author of UFOs and the National Security State, is a bit of a hero of mine. He has tirelessly excavated government documents on UFOs and points out over and over again the extreme interests given to UFOs by the US military, despite public statements to the contrary. Hear what he has to say for yourself.

Dip in UFO sightings caused by the Internet?

How inaccurate can one article on UFOs be? Take 10 seconds to enter 'UFO sightings' into a search engine and get over 1 million returns. UFO reports have never been so common. This year alone there have been hundreds, some from very credible sources. The proof on the Internet completely contradicts the key 'point' of the article:

My friend Kevin Fitzpatrick, who spends a great deal of time thinking about these things, says there is a simple answer. He suggests an exact parallel between the rise in the use of the internet and the fall in UFO sightings. Logical: the amount of time spent staring at the sky must be in inverse proportion to the amount of time available to stare at a computer screen.

Storm Worm Rising

The Storm Worm is a huge botnet that may have commandeered up to 2 million PCs around the world. You visit a site, download a piece of malware, and unbeknownst to you, your computer becomes just another 'zombie' node in the botnet army. Then the creators use yours and the other computers on the network to launch spam or denial-of-service (DDos) attacks.

As sci-fi writer Sterling himself says,

The Storm worm is an amazing piece of work. Anyone who has taken the time to reverse engineer Storm will tell you that it is a very sophisticated piece of software and it is highly unlikely that it was created just to send spam.
