HAPPY EASTER AND HAPPY PASSOVER
LARGE UFOS ARE BEING OBSERVED in Rhode Island, New York, Virginia, North
Carolina, Florida, Illinois, Nebraska, California, Washington, Chile and
Italy. Huge unidentified flying objects are causing a hazard to the aviation
public, its time to start examining the hundreds of UFO reports. In the past
air traffic controllers report alleged false radar images and diverted
commercial aircraft near Chicago. Several UFOs were spotted last week in air
space near Chicago's O'Hare International Airport often advertised as the
nations' busiest. It seems likely the radars are picking up the UFOs.
At this time of the year, it is appropriate to consider some amazing new
discoveries that endorse statements made in the Bible. Your ancestors may
not be primordal soup or apes as the Theory of Evolution claims. My mother
always told me some people may be related to apes, but we are from a higher
place and looked toward the heavens. Zecharia Sitchin the noted researcher
and author of the Earth Chronicles explains why your forefathers came from a
more complex higher life form.
SCIENCE CATCHES UP TO BIBLE EXPLANATION OF OUR GENES
Zecharia Sitchin writes, "In whose image was The Adam - the prototype of
modern humans, Homo sapiens - created?" The Bible asserts that the Elohim
said: "Let us fashion Adam in our image and after our likeness." But if one
is to accept a tentative explanation for enigmatic genes that humans possess,
offered when the deciphering of the human genome was announced in
mid-February, the feat was decided upon by a group of bacteria! "Humbling"
was the prevalent adjective used by the scientific teams and the media to
describe the principal finding -- that the human genome contains not the
anticipated 100,000 - 140,000 genes (the stretches of DNA that direct the
production of amino-acids and proteins) but only some 30,000+ -- little more
than double the 13,601 genes of a fruit fly and barely fifty percent more
than the roundworm's 19,098. What a comedown from the pinnacle of the
genomic Tree of Life! Moreover, there was hardly any uniqueness to the human
genes. They are comparative to 99 percent of the chimpanzees, and 70 percent
of the mouse. Human genes, with the same functions, were found to be
identical to genes of other vertebrates, as well as invertebrates, plants,
fungi, even yeast. The findings not only confirmed that there was one source
of DNA for all life on Earth, but also enabled the scientists to trace the
evolutionary process -- how more complex organisms evolved, genetically, from
simpler ones, adopting at each stage the genes of a lower life form to create
a more complex higher life form -- culminating with Homo sapiens. The
"Head-scratching" Discovery It was here, in tracing the vertical evolutionary
record contained in the human and the other analyzed genomes, that the
scientists ran into an enigma.
The "head-scratching discovery by the public consortium," as Science termed
it, was that the human genome contains 223 genes that do not have the
required predecessors on the genomic evolutionary tree. How did Man acquire
such a bunch of enigmatic genes? In the evolutionary progression from
bacteria to invertebrates (such as the lineages of yeast, worms, flies or
mustard weed -- which have been deciphered) to vertebrates (mice,
chimpanzees) and finally modern humans, these 223 genes are completely
missing in the invertebrate phase. Therefore, the scientists can explain
their presence in the human genome by a "rather recent" (in evolutionary time
scales) "probable horizontal transfer from bacteria." In other words: At a
relatively recent time as Evolution goes, modern humans acquired an extra 223
genes not through gradual evolution, not vertically on the Tree of Life, but
horizontally, as a sideways insertion of genetic material from bacteria... An
Immense Difference Now, at first glance it would seem that 223 genes is no
big deal. In fact, while every single gene makes a great difference to every
individual, 223 genes make an immense difference to a species such as ours.
The human genome is made up of about three billion neucleotides (the
"letters" A-C-G-T which stand for the initials of the four nucleic acids that
spell out all life on Earth); of them, just a little more than one percent
are grouped into functioning genes (each gene consists of thousands of
"letters").
The difference between one individual person and another amounts to about one
"letter" in a thousand in the DNA "alphabet." The difference between Man and
Chimpanzee is less than one percent as genes go; and one percent of 30,000
genes is 300. So, 223 genes is more than two-thirds of the difference
between me, you and a chimpanzee! An analysis of the functions of these
genes through the proteins that they spell out, conducted by the Public
Consortium team and published in the journal Nature, shows that they include
not only proteins involved in important physiological but also psychiatric
functions. Moreover, they are responsible for important neurological enzymes
that stem only from the mitochondrial portion of the DNA - the so-called
"Eve" DNA that humankind inherited only through the mother-line, all the way
back to a single "Eve." That finding alone raises doubt regarding that the
"bacterial insertion" explanation.
Zecharia Sitchin states, "The Role of the Anunnaki Readers of my books must
be smiling by now, for they know the answer." They know that the biblical
verses dealing with the fashioning of The Adam are condensed renderings of
much much more detailed Sumerian and Akkadian texts, found inscribed on clay
tablets, in which the role of the Elohim in "Genesis" is performed by the
Anunnaki - "Those Who From Heaven to Earth Came." As detailed in my books,
beginning with The 12th Planet (1976) and even more so in Genesis Revisited
and The Cosmic Code, the Anunnaki came to Earth some 450,000 years ago from
the planet Nibiru - a member of our own solar system whose great orbit brings
it to our part of the heavens once every 3,600 years. They came here in need
of gold, with which to protect their dwindling atmosphere. Exhausted and in
need of help in mining the gold, their chief scientist Enki suggested that
they use their genetic knowledge to create the needed Primitive Workers.
When the other leaders of the Anunnaki asked: How can you create a new being?
He answered: "The being that we need already exists; all that we have to do
is put our mark on it." The time was some 300,000 years ago. What he had in
mind was to upgrade genetically the existing hominids, who were already on
Earth through Evolution, by adding some of the genes of the more advanced
Anunnaki. That the Anunnaki, who could already travel in space 450,000 years
ago, possessed the genomic science (whose threshold we have now reached) is
clear not only from the actual texts but also from numerous depictions in
which the double-helix of the DNA is rendered as Entwined Serpents and often
depicted in Sumarian drawings (a symbol still used for medicine and healing)
When the leaders of the Anunnaki approved the project (as echoed in the
biblical "Let us fashion the Adam"), Enki with the help of Ninharsag, the
Chief Medical Officer of the Anunnaki, embarked on a process of genetic
engineering, by adding and combining genes of the Anunnaki with those of the
already-existing hominids. When, after much trial and error breathtakingly
described and recorded in antiquity, a "perfect model" was attained,
Ninharsag held him up and shouted: "My hands have made it!" An ancient
artist depicted the scene on a cylinder sea. And that, I suggest, is how we
had come to possess the unique extra genes. It was in the image of the
Anunnaki, not of bacteria, that Adam and Eve were fashioned. A Matter of
Extreme Significance Unless further scientific research can establish, beyond
any doubt, that the only possible source of the extra genes are indeed
bacteria, and unless it is then also determined that the infection
("horizontal transfer") went from bacteria to Man and not from Man to
bacteria, the only other available solution will be that offered by the
Sumerian texts millennia ago. Until then, the enigmatic 223 alien genes will
remain as an alternative - and as a corroboration by modern science of the
Anunnaki and their genetic feats on Earth. Thanks to ZECHARIA SITCHIN (c) Z.

RHODE ISLAND FLYING CHEVRON WING
PORTSMOUTH - A chevron-shaped object was seen in the Rhode Island sky at
night of the Vernal Equinox. The witness and her husband ,who works for local
city government, were in the hottub in their backyard stargazing on March 20,
2001. The sky was very clear with a full blanket of stars at 7:30 PM. Local
aircraft traffic was flying by but this was not like that traffic. For less
than 30 seconds an object appeared, chevron or flying wing in shape, with six
unblinking lights along the perimeter. From the witnesses' perspective, it
appeared in the night sky to be a hand's breadth and length at arm's length.
It moved swiftly and straight from the East-South-East to the
North-North-West. Thanks to Peter Davenport National Reporting Center.
NEW YORK HUGE BLIMP SHAPED UFO
ONEIDA -- In early summer of 1972, I awoke around 1:00 AM with my room aglow
from what I thought was a forest fire. Black airplanes and helicopters were
silhouetted against the red-orange sky. I thought the planes were dropping
flame-retardants on the pines. I watched for about 20 minutes, when a HUGE
blimp-shaped object, bright red with orange tinge at the bottom, rose slowly
and majestically above the pines. As it hovered I saw it was several acres
big, as it overlapped the east and west borders of the pine grove. I was
stunned and then realized I was watching a UFO. The planes and helicopters
had disappeared. By now I was kneeling on my bed with my face plastered
against my window in complete awe. After hovering for about three minutes,
it suddenly shot upwards within a second it was gone. The pines leaned to
the west as it left, as if huge wind was blowing them at once. Seeing that
thing shook the perception of reality I had up to that time. I was too afraid
to talk about it and had bad dreams about it for years. Thanks to Pat and
Larry Clark pathoyt@mediaone.net and nymufon@nycap.rr.com
VIRGINIA DISC
VIRGILINA -- On January 21, 2001, a disc was observed at 2:15 PM by Susann
and her friend who were driving back from getting a large roll of hay for
their horses. They were driving south on Red Bank Road and saw a silver,
disc-shaped UFO moving North. It was approximately 5,000 feet high. At
first, they thought it may be a jet, but there were no contrails in the clear
blue sky. They saw it moving North for about three seconds then it vanished
after picking up speed and moving faster than a jet. They said if the sun
would not have shined off of it they would not have seen it. This report was
completed by Tom Ginther, VA MUFON.
NORTH CAROLINA FLYING TRIANGLE
DURHAM -- A very large Flying triangular object with two very bright lights
on the front and a reddish looking light on the bottom center was observed on
March 26, 2001. The witness reports, "As we approached an intersection at
9:35 P.M., we noticed two very bright lights up in the sky that looked like
they were just hovering there. One of my kids finally asked me, "What is
that?" The only thing I could think of was that maybe they had put up some
kind of tower because I knew it wasn't an airplane. We continued to watch it
just sitting there and then it began to move very slowly across the main
roadway to the other side and began to hover again. As we got closer to
where it was we looked up at it and noticed a strange triangular shape with a
reddish light in the bottom of the center of it. It began moving again very
slowly and then turned and moved back across the main roadway toward the side
where we had first seen it. Then it suddenly just disappeared. We turned
around to follow it thinking maybe it went down below the tree line, but it
was gone. Then as we approached near the hospital, we looked over in the
field and saw the two bright lights hovering there again. As we were
observing, it began to move slowly away and downward when it suddenly
disappeared again. We rode around near both places we had seen it but could
not find it anymore. We never heard any type of sound coming from it.

FLORIDA STRANGE OCCURRENCES
OCALA NATIONAL FOREST -- K. T. Frankovitch reports many strange occurrences
in the forest where she lives. Goats have been found dead with rectum
removed and blood drained. Twelve rabbits were also found dead by their
owner drained of blood with two small puncture wounds on their neck. A baby
calf was found in wandering in the forest without her mother many miles from
any farm or cow. A horse was found dead near the top of a 15 foot Palmetto
tree. There is no way for the horse to have jumped that high and it must
have been air dropped to its position. UFOs, generally disc-shaped, have
been seen regularly in the area. The local people call them space ships. The
area is exceptionally dry and is ravaged by fires. Thanks to K.T.
Frankovitch.
ILLINOIS HOUSE SHAKES, UFOs NEAR O'HARE AIRPORT
TAYLORVILLE -- It happened so fast, it made my house shake, and I looked out
the window and saw a triangular-shaped object with lights on it. On March 22,
2001, at around 10:00 PM, I was in my bedroom on the computer and talking to
my friends, having a good time. All of a sudden, I felt a sudden vibrant
movement of the house. I quickly darted for the window. I looked out and saw
a triangular-shaped object traveling in a straight line at what looked like
150 mph. This triangular object also had lights on the bottom of it and red
lights along the back of it. It wasn't flat, it was three-dimensional. It
made a huge roaring noise. Right when I lost sight of it, I could still see
it, hovering, just sitting in mid-air. All I could see at this time were the
lights though. And, all of a sudden, it vanished. This is definitely no
plane, helicopter, military base test flight, or anything else normal. It is
the weirdest thing I have ever seen in my life and I'm still shocked over it.
We're located 200 miles south of Chicago.
CHICAGO -- At 8:00 PM Sunday night on March 25, 2001, I was observing the
southern sky and something brought my attention to look slightly West and
almost straight up. I live close to the Loop, and I saw a tight group of some
kind of craft streaking northward. They were chevron-shaped and in at that
moment in a tight, bunched-up formation. I ran across to the front of my
house and yelled for my brother to look out the front door. He also saw the
craft which now were changing positions amongst each other almost magically.
The speed in which they traveled from the Southern to the Northern sky was
incredible. I live by O'Hare Airport and I've seen airplanes before -- these
were not airplanes! Just for good measure, I also noticed that, along Lake
Michigan's shoreline, at least four batteries of searchlights began what
appears to be a frantic search of the skies West over Chicago. I've seen
promotional light shows and this didn't appear to be one due to the number of
lighting batteries included in what seemed an aerial search. Crazy as it may
sound, there are now straight-line looking clouds running East to West over
to the South of Chicago. Are these chem-trails? After these craft were
sighted, I'm a perplexed believer in what I saw. Thanks to Peter Davenport
NUFORC
GRAYSLAKE -- Rick writes that on the night of April 8, 2001, I was driving
back from my fiance's house down Route 83. About 11:15 PM, I saw a huge
triangle shaped craft hovering over the landfill along the highway. As I
came closer to the object it moved away from the dump. It didn't loop around
like an airplane it actually moved sideways and hovered over the road about
100 feet high. I could tell very easily that it was triangle shaped with a
bright light in the front and two at the rear points. The front light was a
bright red and the other lights at the rear points were a strange green
color. I was going to stop to look at it, but it flew off as I came closer.
This situation was disturbing because I'm a photographer and this was one of
the few times that I did not have my camera with me. The object was the size
of a 747 aircraft. I just thought I should report this. Now keep in mind
I'm not a quack and I'm also a major skeptic about UFO stories. However I'm
not a skeptic anymore. Thanks to Rick and Whitley Strieber.
Editor's Note: This Flying Triangle was operating less than 25 miles from
Chicago's, O'Hare Airport, one of the busiest in the world. Additionally it
was operating at 100 feet over a well traveled highway. Other reports
indicate these craft cause homes to shake probably due to their powerful
propulsion systems. These craft are regularly picked up on the screens of
O'Hare air traffic controllers forcing pilots to take sudden turns
unnecessarily. Last year, Terminal Radar Approach Control Center in Elgin,
Illinois has ordered pilots to avoid what appeared to be planes on their
radar, potentially putting passengers at risk. The Chicago Sun Times called
them false radar images, but I think they are UFOs.
NEBRASKA CIGAR SHAPED UFO WITH FLASHING LIGHTS
VALENTINE -- The witness observed an extremely large cigar-shaped craft on
March 26, 2001, that he estimates was at least 200 yards long. The UFO had
two flashing lights on each end when he noticed it at 9:00 PM. The craft
flew right above us, with two flashing lights at each end. It was slightly
tilted and was moving fast. We were in an extremely dark part of town and
the object was moving East. The UFO was sort of cigar-shaped; the lights
were bright, flashing and white. The observers were a freshman in high
school and an eighth-grade student. Thanks to Peter Davenport NUFORC
ARKANSAS AIRSHOW BY EIGHT DISC-SHAPED UFOs.
HOT SPRINGS -- I was at work pulling shopping carts inside on March 23, 2001,
as my job requires, when an older gentleman said, "What the HELL!'" Concerned
for customer safety, I looked around and saw the gentleman looking into the
sky. I looked up also at 7:23 PM. About 500 feet in the air were eight
crafts that appeared to be making high-speed ninety degree (90 degree) turns.
The gentleman noticed me watching and asked me if I saw them too. I replied
with a, "Yes sir!" and then proceeded to ask him, "What are they?'' He
replied, "I don't know." We watched these acrobatic crafts for almost seven
minutes before six of them shot off to the North at an astounding rate of
speed. The other two craft just sat and hovered for a minute or so and then
shot off the West just as fast as the six to the North did. I have seen
aircraft like F-16's make turns but not as sharp or perfectly cornered as
these craft seemed to be doing.
Editor's Note: Large mothership cigar shaped UFOs have been seen more often
lately perhaps due to severe solar storms. Smaller disc craft are often seen
leaving and entering these motherships.
CALIFORNIA CIGAR SHAPED UFOs
DUBLIN - The witnesses reports he sees these craft almost every morning at
7:40 AM while waiting for the BART train. On March 31, 2001, he made his
second report of this cigar-shaped object. It flies over every morning. In
my first report the object was flying much lower and much slower. I called
the FAA office at the Livermore Airport. Is it coincidental that the object
now passes overhead at a much higher altitude so that it will go largely
unobserved? It appears to be white, cigar-shaped, with no wings, no sound, no
windows, nor anything that would make it resemble a known object. It flies
from the Southwest to the Northeast or East.
LUCERNE VALLEY - Three hours later, two witnesses were traveling north down
Mesa Road near Alemeda at 10:45 AM when they saw a similar white object that
looked like a cigar. Both ends were pointy instead of rounded. This object
traveled from East to West down the middle of the valley not far from the
first sighting in Dublin. It was flying at about 500 feet and just glided
silently by. It had no wings, tail, or exhaust. It was only about the size
of a jet fighter and was traveling at about the same speed those planes
cruise at. It was also very smooth looking. Thanks to Peter Davenport

WASHINGTON LUMINOUS LIGHTS
TROUT LAKE -- Six adult eyewitnesses and five children observed UFOs on April
8, 2001, at 9:42 P.M . Eastern. After a typically cold winter with snow,
rain and cloudy skies, the skywatches have started again on the South side of
Mt. Adams. Our first skywatch was spectacular when a large luminous light,
turquoise in color, came in from the Southwest. It was a pulsing green
energy field and looked about four times brighter than Venus. The witnesses
are writing statements. As it crossed directly overhead, it threw off
several, very large pulses of light which seemed to have a psychological
calming effect on the people below. The object was filmed as it passed
halfway through the sighting and expanded into what looked like infinity,
disappearing in the camera, but to the naked eye it remained. These
anomalies are not uncommon. The UFOs often show they have control over what
is being filmed. They can even selectively block their appearance to
individuals all standing in a row.
James Gilliland writes, "During our July 1st skywatch last year, a particular
guest had a bad attitude. He shot 9 photos of a UFO going directly overhead.
He was a professional photographer. The guests and myself had no problem
filming the UFO, yet not one of his pictures came out that night. Clips of
this event from two different camcorders are available on the UFO video we
offer through our website." This supports our theory that the success of
contact and documentation of that contact has everything to do with an open
mind, loving heart and pure intent. Thanks to James Gilliland Self-Mastery

CHILE: OVAL-SHAPED UFO
CALAMA HILLS -- On April 4, 2001, an object, originally displaying
considerable luminosity, was seen by at least five witnesses. The sighting
occurred between 1:40 and 2:15 P.M., and had a duration of half an hour.
According to Freddy L.A., and his father, René L.M., who were on their way
back home, an intensely luminous object drew their attention: it was so
bright that it hurt their eyes and kept them from making out any greater
details. Freddy claims he has seen the light in that location several times.
The light was compared to the brightness of a mirror reflecting the sun.
Patricio V.T. and Jaime M.L were clearly able to see an oval, cream-colored
object with an intense yellow-hued band around its central section. They
estimated its size at 200 meters, adding that the object made constant
triangular maneuvers. The object moved a high speed during these motions and
shot straight up into the air, losing itself amid "a sort of cloud."
Patricio V.T. claims having had the impression that this object engaged in
such triangular maneuvers while it waited for, "a door in the skies," to
open. As soon as said door opened, it passed through it. Thanks to La
Estrella de Arica.
ITALY: THREE UFO SIGHTINGS
TRENTO -- On Sunday, March 18, 2001, three people saw, "a circular UFO
hovering over Monte Paganella Mountain near the city of Trento." "One
witness described the object as 'a spherical shape with a metallic sheen to
it.' " Another said it, 'had one point of light moving around inside the
sphere.' The same evening, at 8:39 PM, "a similar spherical UFO with an
intense white spotlight, 'like a star of incredible dimensions,' " was seen
by a witness in the city of Modena in northern Italy. On Wednesday, March
21, 2001, a family in the suburbs of Rome, "saw a flashing light at 8:15 PM
that hovered for 15 minutes and then moved around the sky in an elliptical
fashion.' The light then shot away at tremendous speed." Thanks to Gazzetta
di Modena News for March 20, and Edoardo Russo e Centro Italiano di Studi

ASTRONOMERS IDENTIFY 20 NEW PLANETS
Tim Radford, science editor of The Guardian reports two British astronomers
have counted up to 20, "free floating" planets, drifting in the constellation
of Orion. They told the National Astronomy Meeting in Cambridge yesterday
that they had identified the "signature" of water vapor in the infrared
spectrum of faint points of light in the Orion nebula. This is a vast cloud
of gas and dust 1,300 light years from Earth, but visible as the middle
"star" in the sword of the constellation of Orion. Philip Lucas, of the
University of Hertfordshire, and Patrick Roche, of the University of Oxford,
told the meeting that the planets would be several times the mass of Jupiter,
and would not circle around any parent star, but instead drift in space.
Although huge by Earth standards, and inhospitable to life, they would be at
surface temperatures of about 2,000C, cool enough for water to exist in their
atmospheres. The guess is that the gaseous planets are hot because they have
condensed from the gas cloud in the past million years or so. Thanks to the
Guardian http://www.guardian.co.uk/uk_news/story/0,3604,468070,00.html April 4, 2001.
THE UFO - JESUS CONNECTION
David E. Twichell writes, "The ancient astronaut and Biblical UFO hypotheses
are not new. However, no one seems to want to take the matter to the next
logical step. If Ezekiel's, "wheel within a wheel," and Moses', "pillar of
fire and cloud," were forerunners of today's UFOs, then the Star of Bethlehem
and the brilliant cloud to which Jesus ascended must be treated in the same
vein. When Biblical descriptions of anomalous aerial phenomena are overlaid
on that of modern-day UFO reports, the picture seems to meld as one. Once the
evidence has been presented, the reader is led to a conclusion that is at
best convincing and at least thought provoking. Are you willing to risk

NEW NASA SHUTTLE VIDEO OF UFOs IN SPACE
Jeff Challender has prepared a new tape of various UFOs that were caught on
recent Shuttle video footage. Jeff has over an hour-long tape of UFOs shot
in space. Jeff spends hundreds of hours watching the shuttle broadcasts from
space and is now an expert on NASA missions and even those onboard the
shuttle are unlikely to see what Jeff does. Using Jeff's directions, you
will be able to learn the difference between space junk, ice crystals and
real UFOs. I feel confident we could go into a court of law and convince any
jury that there are UFOs moving at high speed around the Earth. Send $25 to:
