ALIEN ABDUCTION IN THE ECONOMIST

 

THE ECONOMIST (2007) 3/31

__________(95) This is from the prestigious THE ECONOMIST. It is not a story from a tabloid or trash paper. Robert Taylor died. Who was he? IN 1979, he reported that a flying saucer came to a spot not far from where he and his dog were standing. It was a flying dome that had substance but you could also partially see through it. Two mines levitated toward him, grabbed him and the dog and he blacked out. He had marks all over his body when he came to and the field in front of him had circle marks and burnt grass. The police opened the case. It was the only UFO case ever opened and recorded.

From his account, nearly 300 more sightings have occurred in the very same spot called "Falkirk Triangle." Nearly all the others have seen sightings come from the Forge restaurant in Bonny bridge where they see wingless planes. So much seems consistent by civilians who do not have a record of mental illness or sensational seeking previous behavior that the UFO account and the death of

Mr. Taylor warranted a full page obituary in THE ECONOMIST.

____________(90) Semi -identical twins from Marmosets have cells of both sexes within them. One twin set had a male and a trans gender female. The second will need surgery later on even though the genital is predominantly a vagina.

_______(40) Numerous immigrants that have located in California are now moving to other western states. The other states don't want the newcomers. Further, when

something goes wrong, the established community is likely to blame it on

Californians. This is a dramatic change for a state that once had songs sung about it in the west coast style.

 

U.S. NEWS AND WORLD REPORT (2007) 4/9

Brush (34) Years ago, a supreme court Justice told President Nixon to start hiring intellectuals. From the early 70's on, right wing think tanks began to emerge and now dominate the political science today. However, the center/left is re-merging after a 35 year hibernation and providing ideas for a new Democratic party. If a Democrat is elected in 2008 the think tanks should become more abundant.

Triad (46-47) Networks are now on the computer. If you missed an episode of some program it is likely to be on the internet.

Penthoukousis ( 52-53) President Reagan signed the first big tax cut in 1981. It has taken this long for the public particularly in the center to understand that most of the tax cuts go to the wealthy. Republican strategist are now suggesting to run from this position.
