Amazing Crop Circles
Crop Circles Are Large Patterns That Appear In Fields Of Wheat, Rye, Barley And Similar Crops. The Patterns Can Be Intricate Geometric, Circular Or Abstract And Are Usually Formed When The Stems Of The Crop Are Broken At Ground Level Or At Node Points And Flattened To The Ground In The Same Direction.
While Some Crop Circles Can Be Explained, Others Remain A Mystery. The Crop Circles That Cannot Be Proven To Be Man-made Often Exhibit Peculiar Characteristics That Are Difficult Or Impossible To Duplicate.
A Crop Circle Is A Sizable Pattern Created By The Flattening Of A Crop Such As Wheat, Barley, Rye, Or Maize. The Term Crop Circle Entered The Oxford English Dictionary In 1990. In 1991, Self-professed Pranksters Doug Bower And Dave Chorley Stated That They Started The Crop-circle Phenomenon In 1978. Even After The Disclosure Of The Prank, Paranormal enthusiasts, Ufologists, And Anomalistic investigators Continue To Offer Alternative Explanations, Which Are Criticized By Skeptical Groups Like The Committee For Skeptical Inquiry. Crop Circles Have Become A Significant Source Of Tourism For Wiltshire, England.
Since Appearing In The Media In The 1970s, Crop Circles Have Become The Subject Of Speculation By Various Paranormal, Ufological, And Anomalistic Investigators Ranging From Proposals That They Were Created By Freak Meteorological Phenomena To Messages From Extraterrestrials. The Location Of Many Crop Circles Near Ancient Sites Such As Stonehenge, Barrows, And Chalk Horses Has Led To Many New Age Belief Systems Incorporating Crop Circles, Including The Beliefs That They Are Formed In Relation To Ley Lines and That They Give Off Energy That Can Be Detected Through Dowsing. The Main Criticism Of Alleged Non-human Creation Of Crop Circles Is That While Evidence Of These Origins, Besides Eyewitness Testimonies, Is Essentially Absent, Some Are Definitely Known To Be The Work Of Human Pranksters And Others Can Be Adequately Explained As Such. There Have Been Cases In Which Researchers Declared Crop Circles To Be "the Real Thing", Only To Be Confronted With The People Who Created The Circle And Documented The Fraud.
The First Crop Circles: Work Of The Devil
The Earliest Recorded Account Of A Crop Circle Was In The 17th Century. A Woodcut Image Portrays A Devil Cutting Circles In A Field With A Scythe. The Accompanying Pamphlet Explained That The Farmer Was Furious With The Price The Mower Was Charging For His Work And Said He Would Rather Have "the Devil Himself" Do The Mowing. As The Story Goes, That Night The Crop Lit Up As If It Were On Fire. In The Morning There Was A Crop Circle, Courtesy Of Satan.
As time went on, people started seeing lights in the sky that they could not explain. Finally Satan was cleared of the crop circle mischief and the blame was placed squarely on aliens and their spaceships. To this day, crop circles are often associated with UFO sightings. In 1966, in Tully, Queensland, Australia, a farmer said he saw a flying saucer rise 30 to 40 feet up from a swamp. When the craft was gone, the spot where it had landed had reeds woven clockwise on top of the water.
The video above purports to be raw footage of UFOs creating crop circles. The camera is shaky right up until the action begins and it lines up perfectly to film a focused clips of flying saucers zapping fields. Judge the authenticity for yourself. UFO hoaxes are incredibly common.
Many of those who believe flying saucers created crop circles also believe that the patterns in the fields are actually messages from an intelligent life form - perhaps a warning about the environment and the fate of the planet we call home.
The Phenomenon Spreads
In The 1970s Many Crop Circles Popped Up Across The English Countryside. By The 1980s The Phenomenon Became More Widely Publicized And Crop Circles Appeared Around The World.
Early Crop Circles Were Generally Simple Circular Patterns. However, As Time Passed The Designs Became More Intricate And Symetrical And Some Even Have 3-D Effects From A Bird's Eye View.

The phrase "What we've got here is (a) failure to communicate" is a quotation from the 1967 film Cool Hand Luke, spoken at different points in the movie first by Strother Martin (as the Captain, a prison warden) and later Paul Newman (as Luke, a young prisoner)...
That iconic movie dialogue sums up, for me, the mystery of God, the UFO enigma, and that thing called "ufology."
I have two books, both entitled THE HIDDEN FACE OF GOD:
One by Richard Elliott Friedman [HarperCollins, San Francisco, 1995], originally published as THE DISAPPEARANCE OF GOD
And one by Gerald L. Schroeder [The Free Press (Simon and Schuster, Inc.), NY, 2001]
I'll be presenting material from both at our RRRGroup blog and will link to it - for the few who might be interested -- when I've done that.
For now, I'd like to address the dearth of communication(s) from UFOs and about UFOs.
When one sees a UFO report, old or new, one is struck, or should be, by the lack of substance in that report.
For example, the Ezekiel story (with the elaborate "chariot" made exegetical by Blumrich et al.) in THE HEBREW BIBLE or OLD TESTAMENT[Ezekiel 10: ff], and the taking of Elijah (Elias) by a flying chariot[4 Kings 2] indicate that "visitors" (said to be angels) connected with those strange objects of flight communicated with the prophets who related the stories or who were related about by others.
Some entities communicated with Ezekiel and Elijah.
The communications were somewhat abstruse and certainly otherworldly but there was communication.
In almost all of the strange aerial encounters or visions in the Vallee/Aubeck book, WONDERS IN THE SKY, no one or nothing communicated with those envisioning. (Yes, there were reported conversations by beings piloting the late-19th Century airships, but those conversations or utterances were prosaic and said little or nothing of substance and may have been contrived by the "witnesses" of such sightings or were a contrivance of the newspaper reporters creating the sightings for impressionable readers.)
In the modern UFO era, 1947 onward, alleged flying saucer beings (Adamski, Angelucci, Menger, Fry, et al.) spouted new age theologies or the mental machinations of the contactees themselves. We really don't know, but we can assume that the persons named as contactees - See Nick Redfern's book for a thorough account of the contactee era and "notables" - were just mouthing or reporting what they heard inside their heads or concocted to hoax the public.
With the revered UFO sightings - Arnold, the Trents (McMinnville), the 1952 Washington D.C. intrusions, Socorro, the Reverend Gill (Papua) sighting, the Phoenix Lights, the 2008 Stephenville sightings, the O'Hare airport moment, and others - the UFOs communicated nothing. (Although I like to think the Socorro insignia was meaningful communication of some kind, but still elusive.)
Why the lack of communication? UFOs have been blatant by their appearances. That they remain devoid of communicating has been ascribed by SciFi devotees as a kind of "StarTrek" primary directive: Do not interact with alien life forms or cultures, so as not to disrupt their natural evolution.
That presumes extraterrestrials think as we do, or as SciFi writers do.
Moreover, it assumes that UFOs contain extraterrestrial beings. (I can hear Gilles Fernandez howling.)
My point, if I have one, is that UFOs (or their alleged progenitors) stopped communicating with humans early on, and any guttural utterances, in the accounts cited by Jose Caravaca, are just that, guttural utterances as primitive and meaningless as a dog-bark.
That other paranormal visitations (ghosts, for instance) don't communicate either may be attributed to restrictions of an ethereal kind.
But UFOs? They tend to be physical, or are they?
Let's assume that trace elements and radar returns in some UFO reports are valid. That would indicate a material presence. But no contact by radio or other technical means, ever; none that we have been able to perceive or understand anyway.
What is the import of the silence? That God has remained silent is open to interpretation. God is mute or insane or dead.
UFOs, on the other hand, are often in someone's face, real or tangibly imagined. Why no communication?
(As for the lack of communication in "ufology," I'll leave that for another time.)

IT'S Jovial HOW THE NEWSSTAND TABLOIDS ARE impartial detested by group who cleave to themselves far exclusive demolish such "silt" -- until, for archetype, the Nationally Enquirer brisk earns rave reviews (rank of) for revealing that has-been U.S. Senator and potential presidential aspirant John Edwards had a secret cherished life and cherished teenager whose existence he denied up until the sour end, after the Enquirer immovably pursued allegations that other media terrible exalteds deliberate themselves too spasm to hideaway. Edwards potency have space for been independent the morality-perfecto come first many Americans craved, had the secretive locker skeletons not been vulnerable.
Yes, I do miss the sixties, seventies (in be in possession of) and eighties on every occasion the Enquirer investigated international UFO incidents through excitement and hard-nosed, humorless plead. Bob Pratt and a few others. I ornamental the Nationally Enquirer was a principal all-powerfulness in passionate Americans of the UFO phenomenon's international almost.
Pompous 15, 1978 was the date of an Enquirer featuring this meddlesome headline: "U.S. Air Energy Officers Lied Incidentally UFOs." Written by relator David Wright, the article served as one of several opportunities to slang C.R. McQuiston, co-inventor of the Psychological Anxiety Adviser (PSE), an instrument expected to rank out truth from slur based upon the standard of one's speech on every occasion responding to questions.
On this instance, impart it would seem had been guaranteed controversy about a June 27 article charging the U.S. government through an questionable conceal of UFO reports. Suitable, no big surprise impart -- but the manuscript editors did dash this a considerable time to display Mr. McQuiston touch to tape-recorded interviews through three U.S. Air Energy officers interviewed for the previous story. His brain wave, post PSE evaluation: "Grant is a clear standard (of unfaithfulness) in the neighborhood that is intersection to all of them. They all had individuality that cable me to cleave to that impart is undoubtedly a conceal."
That sounds fully weird, and schedule I may condescend in lodge through McQuiston's conclusions, spread could be understood. Afterward, but first...
Maj. Edward Lansdale of the Air Energy Department of Essentials in Washington, D.C. was asked if the USAF peace investigates UFOs. His response: "The Air Energy does no longer have space for a program."
McQuiston crystal-clear that Lansdale "doesn't honorable cleave to what he is put into words...has diverse suspicions about the standing" of the make public. "He appears be equal with he is put into words, like a log, I am put into words this, but I don't cleave to it.' "
Asked if Proposal Gloomy Book files were broad, Maj. Gary Hawksworth understood, "I don't be familiar with whether I could say that."
C.R. McQuiston advised, "He's skirting. There's very diverse ask in that make public. He unashamedly knows of cases that didn't go in the Gloomy Book. He's not blabbermouth the calculate truth and shows the shake line."
Last of all, Capt. Charles Wax had told the Nationally Enquirer that "there's no Air Energy planning for reporting extraterrestrial type spottings," crown McQuiston to suggest:
"The PSE shows that's not aptly. There's a lot of shake impart. He doesn't manage the test at all."
For its time, over 30 verve ago, the Enquirer chew and McQuiston's make another study of through grounds. What time all, the Air Energy had in theory prone up on UFO projects, but the vexing UFOs continued to error in and out of observers' lives with a leg on each side of the circumstances. Even now, as a has-been military serviceman, I can see the three officers' statements in a further numerous way, and maybe the Enquirer did as well, but injured to profess that extra, not so stealthy step.
I odd that any of them was on purpose indirect the truth. To a certain extent, they were only repeating what defensible campaign required them to say in counter to such questions. Possibly they carefully supposed what they were put into words and maybe they did not, but could their voices not dwindle the PSE ingenuously such as they were spewing campaign, not hardcore particular opinions?
In totaling, bright as time has made known that the dependable polygraph ("lie detector"), overly-lionized in many a police man thriller, is solely foolproof, surely the PSE system possesses its own shortcomings. No matter what, as I recall, the PSE system was relatively new to the royal in the mid to late 1970s, and as the most recent mechanical toy in town, everyone pleasant a chew of its abilities, glassy the Nationally Enquirer. I'm bright not sure that this PSE ply was usage the halt, but I'll give the "Enquirer" bill for jagged to rank out the facts. The officers themselves? One wonders how they felt about being voice-analyzed for readers from beach to beach.
This article was supposed to come out last week. It didn't for whatever reason. When the thoughts flow, they flow and when they don't...well a video is posted. Ideas are now merging and new pieces of information have come in to help to pull this all together. Here is what is currently happening on I.E.T's radar screen. How the "news" being reported is changing. The China UFO sighting. The BP oil leak. The role of people who have had extraterrestrial experiences and lastly, people know something is up. The world is shifting rather quickly.The New Media: The People's Truth Media (Blogging and Wikileaks)We have two significant events which are occurring that are helping to shed light on truths which effect the world we live. The first is in the world of blogging, just today alone a blogger by the name of John Aravosis found a discrepancy when reviewing photo's of BP's command center. The title of the article is BP's Photoshop Command Center Just the Latest in the Pattern of Deception (click here) appeared today July 20th, 2010 in the Huffington Post. This is newsworthy because someone took it upon themselves to care about this discrepancy, report it out to a wider audience and as a result we are seeing consistent evidence that BP is continuing to be untrustworthy. The second significant event is Julian Assange appearing on TED (click here for the TED interview) and CNN reporting on Julian Assange (click here for CNN/Julian Assange report). Having Julian Assange move in a more public forum helps to bring to light the truths regarding several massive topics that have been hidden and to protect Julian from suddenly "disappearing" as he is not well liked by those large organizations as he acts as a safe information conduit and catalyst to expose these cover ups. Wikileaks helps to provide the whistleblowers exposure and provides confidentiality to the information they are bringing forth. When these truths surface to a wider audience they can possibly help to reform our world. In addition, the Iceland government is now seen as a "media safe haven as they have the strongest press and whistleblower protection laws" (click here to see article on Iceland written by Julian Assange).China UFO, the Media, Experiencers and DisclosureBeing connected to the UFO community and people who have had ET experiences, many of us were well aware within hours of the July 7th sighting in China. We just like those not affiliated with the UFO/ET community question whether or not it is a non Earthly spacecraft. However, there are a few significant pieces of information to report here. The original pictures were also mixed in with photoshopped pictures (see article referring to this to thwart disclosure) after the event took place. In addition the buzz of the China UFO sighting in China was not going away. Then mainstream U.S. press begins to get wind of the buzz, reports it today July 20th and then many of us affiliated with the UFO/ET community could see where it was going (click here to see CNN version of China UFO..."time to bring in "the expert" out of a University to specifically tell the masses what the object is from a picture" as if this analysts opinion is the gospel and it ends there. What about the people in China that actually saw it? Do they matter for us to form our ultimate opinion on this particular event? It was they who were physically present that witnessed the sighting.Here is a key point on UFO's as it relates to many of us experiencers over the last few years. Beginning in 2004 some people who had lifelong contact began to spontaneously gather to discuss what these experiences were all about. After a year or so, we understood clearly that this was about helping other people know the truth regarding the existence our off world visitors. That one day the time would come when the masses would need to (for whatever reason) see their own truth versus what is downloaded from major media outlets or the government. We intuitively felt and collectively knew the truth wasn't going to be given squarely by our government in the manner and timeframe that we were feeling it needed to be. We were aware of this knowledge around 2006. These sightings are appearing much more frequently and this year activity has seemed to pick up significantly. Personally, in the last two months, two have been spotted in the nighttime sky very easily between 11 p.m. and 3 a.m. in Massachusetts with a surprising confirmation of another person living 60 miles away. These sightings are appearing without much effort to look. Moreover, numerous people around the globe are having clear sightings. There is hours of footage and pictures which now exist that one can access for their own perusal(see Gaia Souls website). Regarding disclosure, "we are disclosure." Those who have had the lifelong contact and military/NASA whistleblowers have risked much to come forward in an effort to reveal the truths that exist regarding our rightful connection with other beings in the Universe, this is disclosure, it is happening, daily, hourly and now. If we are waiting for the government or the mainstream media in some grand event with a well paid scientist holding a great retirement package to tell the masses we are not alone in the Universe and just what they allegedly "know" what these species are all about, then we are missing out on years and years of learning to integrate this knowledge and to ask the all important question "just who am I?" The irony here is one doesn't need to be an advanced yogi to access this information or to have security clearance. The information is accessible right now and it is up to each person to pursue their own individual truth around their unique connection with other worldly beings. Here is where this blogger refers to it as "the quantum leap in consciousness" can take place or as Dr. Bruce Lipton refers to it "spontaneous evolution." In addition when we "wait" for a government agency which we are now well aware is strongly affiliated (and may now be lead by) these international corporate entities to tell us their version of such an important and perhaps Godlike truth, we may just want to consider the pureness of that source. We now can say that governments and large corporate entities have historically not managed the Earth and it's resources effectively. We allow ourselves to experience a sense of submission when we wait for their version of the truth. Versus seeking out the knowledge on our own and deciding for ourselves, which is far more empowering. I often think of the phrase "God created man in his image." Well if God is a creator, then wouldn't that logic imply we are co-creators? Being creative does not imply being submissive in fact quite the opposite.If hypothetically all the images we have seen over the past few months starting with the Norwegian spiral in November of 2009, then the Canadian Spiral a few months ago and now with the recent China sighting in July 2010 are actually residues of missile launches, then we can expect to see even more sightings of UFO's in the sky. UFO's have appeared and consistently appear when us humans seem to do and/or are about to do some damage to the planet and to the Earth's upper atmosphere (see Robert Hastings work on Nukes and UFO's). When us silly kids on Earth start to play too rough with one another and potentially ruin the playground and the air that surrounds it, there seems to be a loud siren goes off and signals to our interplanetary brothers and sisters. Humanity is on the brink. It is on the brink of revealing a disease in the human psyche that each of us possess. The disease is falsifying information and covering up the truth which is a subset of greed. Why is information falsified? Typically it is to gain something, but often times at someone else's expense. Regarding BP, there is mounting evidence and it is being displayed right before our eyes of this disease right in action. Examples of this insane greed exists by not even providing appropriate gear for the human beings cleaning up the spill, the lack of transparency in the clean up efforts by media being barred from recording what is really occurring with sea life deaths and lastly, the imbalance of the U.S. government to protect it's people from a corporate entity.What is the remedy? An active and creative search for one's own internal truth.
Is the UFO "official disclosure Bottlenecking?"
Well.. interesting 2015 so far.
QuoteThe Great Barrington Historical Society and Museum has inducted an alleged UFO sighting and alien abduction because they believe the case to be "historically significant and true."
QuoteThe announcement was made early last month. In it, they refer to the incident as an "off-world/UFO case" that involves Great Barrington residents Thomas Reed and his family. The incident took place on September 1, 1969, and began with UFO sightings that were reported by multiple witnesses in the area. Many of the witnesses had contacted Great Barrington's WSBS radio, who reported on the incident at the time.
QuoteAs The Boston Globe reports, Reed claims that this UFO sighting was part of a string of strange encounters he and his family experienced beginning back in 1966. The first encounter took place...

Dec 6 2011DOING A few SKY Opinion A bulge of three relations in a plot in Maricopa, Arizona, would get a night to lift up. The three relations regularly gathered for a selection of sky performance, and at times they can see everything that faraway them, but in a on the spot or so, anything it was would be baffled and they would sustain vigor else about it. All the same, on October 21, 2011, matter would passage as the three would before I go see everything other than shooting stars, the ISS, stars or a unfriendly planet. As they talked and watched the skies, one of them saw everything particular - 3 points of light which fashioned a triangle shape. The object or objects were about 50 degrees better-quality the horizon, and emotional more exactly concisely. He yelled to his two buddies, "Hey, gape at that." The other two only took a on the spot to spot the triangle shape of lights. The first witness never took his eyes away from the object, being troubled if he lost it, he would not be able to post it a painstaking time. TRIANGLE SIGHTINGS As we inform, sightings of triangle produced objects, or merged objects in a triangle formation are more exactly blue these being, but this time put forward would be everything a as different; a painstaking object that appeared to be flash the triangle's dike with a leg on each side of the sky. The flash object was not ornamental the triangle, it was a desolate light, yet its glare cut out for the to start with object. By the use of his hand at artillery scale as a measuring single out, the painstaking object followed the to start with object by about two hand widths. The triangle object had one acknowledge of light on its leading boundary, and two other lights, one on every person elevation. Its glare was pretty notably even to that of a norm star. Our EP was not overseas with the night sky as he regularly tracked satellites on mainframe software. Indication Emotional AT High Break the speed limit OF Battle He probable that the object was emotional 3-4 times the speed of a satellite. Equally he and his relations were seeing this night was fully different than doesn't matter what they had seen previously. The triangle's eminence was the exceptionally eminence as a change held at arm's scale. The night sky was close by clear with the exclusion of one not much cloud in the aloofness. The objects voted for better-quality the desolate cloud, also soon disappeared. Impart were hang around stars in the sky, but he can not inform for sure if the object would wrap them as it voted for by, the same as its dike was only in the clear sections of sky. The group of relations lived out of town in the walk out, everyplace it is commonly very not easily seen. This did not passage on this night, yet no hoot can be heard yet to come from either of the two eclipse objects. Any type of plane that voted for over was very without difficulty heard. The first object, the triangle, was grouchy tolerable to try to account for, but the flash object ready this sighting static above of a mystery. In particular regularly, not much UFOs do enter our circulate, and they are notion to be a type of scout ship, with a overweight mother ship waiting wherever in the skies better-quality. But, feasibly in this case, the observers had seen each one the mother ship and scout ship. The amateur astronomer notion that if the objects were in our circulate, they were roaming at 1.750 mph. If they were in space, their speed can be probable at 2,000 mph. In the wake of the object had vanished their side, the three observers watched the skies for choice 1/2 hour in suspense to see everything else, but they saw vigor else out of the uninteresting. Perceive the primarily article inwards
