Former U.S. Astronaut Says We Are Not Alone

Edgar Mitchell, the sixth man to walk on the moon, says aliens have been visiting the earth for the past sixty years.

The aliens have landed.

Thus declared Apollo 14 astronaut Edgar Mitchell on Saturday to more than 200 admirers.

"A few insiders know the truth . . . and are studying the bodies that have been discovered," said Mitchell, who was the sixth man to walk on the moon.

[...]

Besides aliens, Mitchell talked about being freed of prostate cancer during a healing ceremony and his epiphany while returning from the moon.

From an interview Mitchell had with the St. Petersburg times in 2004...




There was a time when American astronauts were thought to be heroes.  Can you imagine, back in the sixties, what it must have felt like to be the ultimate adventurer?  Then you are just tossed aside and forgotten.  Is this just a way to gain attention?  Edgar Mitchell has quite an interesting life.  Frankly, I believe that if Dr. Mitchell were going to be an astronaut today, he would not pass the testing beforehand...if you know what I mean.



 


 

Cover Your Heads! (Just In Case)

Good news!

The story from January, about the Spy Satellite that is supposed to fall from the sky in March; well it looks like the U.S. is here to save the day.

Our Navy is planning to shoot down the broken satellite, according to the Pentagon.

Officials said we would most likely shoot it down before it re-enters the atmosphere, using a special missile modified for the task.

The last time the U.S. attempted to do such a thing was 20 years ago. 

China did the same sort of thing just last year.

If the mission should fail, the satellite would fall to earth as anticipated.

Read the story from the International Herald Tribune

Remember Skylab?

Do you know where you were when it fell in 1979?

I remember where I was.

There was so much hype about Skylab falling...

No one was sure where it would fall.

For some reason I was up visiting the Cave of the Mounds.

Don't know if that was on purpose. 

I do love looking at caves.

I remember they were selling novelty spray cans of Skylab repellent!

Guess what?

There's a new kid in town....

P.S.

An Australian municipality, the Shire of Esperance, fined the United States $400 for littering when Skylab fell.  In 2004, the History Channel documentary "History Rocks" stated, in an episode covering major events of 1979, that this fine has never been paid.

Looks like these Polar Bears just wanted to get away from the crowds.




Polar Bears have survived for eras with warmer temperatures than there are today. 

And there are more Polar Bears than ever before.

Death Is Not Skin Deep

Killing Embryos Is Unnecessary
  


Those who advocate publicly funded embryonic stem cell research have been saying all along that it is a matter between sickness and health or life and death. 



If you opposed  this type of research, no matter for what grounds, whether it be for moral reasons, financial reasons, or even practical reasons, you were thought of as being heartless.


Now, everything has changed in a heartbeat since teams of scientists from Japan and our state of Wisconsin revealed they can replicate embryonic stem cells without creating and killing human embryos. 

Instead, the researchers used ADULT SKIN CELLS.



Just think what this means, in so many ways! 

Scientifically, medically, POLITICALLY!
 

This changes EVERYTHING!


Read the article here from the Washington Post   



 

"To date, adult stem cell research has produced about 70 treatments while embryonic research has yet to produce even one treatment, or even a human trial. "


"This week's announcement is a major breakthrough because it opens the gates to the vaunted potential of embryonic cells in a manner a Harvard researcher described as "ethically uncomplicated."
Six years ago, President Bush made the decision to open, for the first time, the laboratory doors to federal funding for human embryonic stem cell research. He determined, however, that federal funds should not be used to encourage or support the destruction of living human embryos, a principle that has been part of federal law since 1996. Funds would be made available for research derived from embryos that had already been destroyed. He placed no limits on private funding of research. The president's policy is working Federal funding for embryonic stem cell research has grown from zero dollars in 2001 to over $24.8 million now, with no cap on future funding. Most of the established U.S. scientists in this field have received funding, and shipments of stem-cell lines are going out to researchers in record numbers. More  lines are available in the USA than in any other country.
 
 ­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­------------------------------------------------

What say you now, liberals?  

Embryonic stem cell research NO LONGER NEEDED?

The ethical form of research is WORKING!

From SKIN CELLS!

Why ..... maybe I'm not even going to become "unglued" today....Oh, wait.... I'm sure there will still be liberals thumbing  their noses at the Bush administration for refusing to fund embryonic-stem-cell research on moral grounds.  And that, will make me "unglued."



So, what do you think?
