EXTRATERRESTRIALS MAY CAUSE REVOLUTION IN CHINA

SHANGHAI -- The largest political group in China outside the
Communist Party is the Falun Gong that attempts to improve a
person's health through exercise, mediation, and contact with
unseen extraterrestrial forces.   The group has up to 70 million
members, and is considered the most serious threat to communist
rule since the 1989 pro-democracy protests.  Falun Gong
doctrines draw on a belief in extraterrestrial forces, martial
arts, Buddhism, Taoism, high moral standards, and traditional
values.  This belief system results in members who are seldom
sick, and so they rarely use Chinese medical facilities.  On
April 25, ten thousand Falun Gong members conducted a silent
protest against government harassment outside the Beijing
compound where President Jiang Zemin lives.  Additional silent
protests were carried out in more than 30 Chinese cities
allegedly coordinated over the Internet by sect founder Li
Hongzhi, who lives in New York.  Coupled with the NATO bombing
of the Chinese Embassy in Yugoslavia the Communist government is
extremely worried.  Thousands of Falun Gong members are being
arrested and put in prison while millions of their books are
being burned.  Old Chinese legends talk of fiery dragons on
which the sons of Heaven rode.  Although China has asked the
United Nations in recent years to join them in studying UFOs,
this spreading belief in extraterrestrials terrifies the
government.  The threat of a civil uprising against Communism in
China is more likely than is generally realized.  China is
attempting to stop further trouble by issuing an arrest order
for the popular Li Hongzhi the leader of Falun Gong.  A
significant sign from heaven, such as UFO sightings could set
off spectacular events in China.  Revolutions have been won by
extraordinary things.

At the start of the American Revolutionary War in 1775, General
George Washington took command of the Continental Army to fight
England, then the world's most powerful nation.  The first
general order issued to his pitifully few troops who had little
hope of winning the war was: "The General most earnestly
requires and expects a due observance of those articles of war
established for the government of the army, which forbid profane
cursing, swearing and drunkenness.  And in like manner, he
requires and expects of all officers and soldiers not engaged in
actual duty, a punctual attendance of Divine Services, to
implore the blessing of Heaven upon the means used for our
safety and defense."  Perhaps heaven will bless another
revolution in China?

NEW JERSEY

SHORT HILLS -- Seedath writes did anyone hear about a strange
object in the sky on July 23, 1999, at 8:35 to 8:37 PM in the
northern part of the state?  I had just left the Short Hill Mall
on Route 24 heading eastbound.  Three other individuals and
myself saw a strange object in the sky.  It was on the left hand
side, above the trees.  The object was oval in shape with the
appearance of being crystal clear with lights all around it.  I
called 911, the local police precinct, the FBI and AFA.  No one
seem interested.  I told them it was not a plane or helicopter.
I was interested to know if anyone made a similar report of that
area.  Thanks to Seedath.  Editors Note: There were no other
reports on July 23 in New Jersey.

MARYLAND SIGHTINGS

ABERDEEN PROVING GROUND ­ A young teenager whose father was in
the military confronted an alien creature in the Edgewood Base
Housing area in 1978.  The witness went outside to take the
trash out.  Hiding behind the trash can was an unknown alien
creature. The witness and the creature startled each other and
the creature ran away.  The creature had gray skin and large
almond shaped eyes without lids, a small nose,  a slit for a
mouth and no ears.  The creature stood about 4 feet tall and
weighed about 30 pounds.  The witness ran home in fright and
stopped on the porch and saw a saucer shaped UFO take off
rapidly with an orange glow to the east.  Shortly there after
the housing area was closed.

GUNPOWDER FALLS STATE PARK ­Jenny Herritt RN states, "I was out
hiking one morning in early July, and found a large footprint in
the muddy riverside.  The footprint was about 18 inches long and
had 4 toes.  The width was at least 6 inches and probably more.
.  My normally friendly Golden Retriever became very anxious,
and aggressive.  He would growl and cling to my leg and have his
tail tucked down.  I called investigator Dave B.  who found
additional evidence.  There was the leg of a killed deer, that
was placed directly on our path.  About a week later, I went
hiking again and found another footprint evidence of a Bigfoot
that I photographed.  While I photographed the print, I heard
the eerie scream that reminded me of howler monkeys I have heard
in Belize, Central America.  Thanks to LJenSilver.

GEORGIA

GRIFFIN -- A Griffin area couple reported to Carl Pruett that on
July 16, 1999, they were out on their patio deck looking at the
sky before retiring at about 11:00 PM.  It was clear and warm,
and as they looked at the stars, a large round ball of light
streaked across the sky, appearing to be lower than the normal
air traffic routes.  It flew horizontally, and just seemed to
"come on," then it "cut off".  It appeared to come from the
north toward Atlanta, flying south in the eastern sky.  What
made this event particularly strange is that about 2:00 AM,
their 17 year old son arrived home from work (ROTC Cadet and 'A'
student).  He told them that while driving home, a blue tinted
ball of light came down in front of his car.  It hovered
briefly, then shot back up into the sky at a different angle at
a high  rate of speed.  The main witness in this case indicated
that another person living in the same area had mentioned seeing
a highly unusual ring of red lights hovering in the sky the same
night.  Griffin is 33 miles south of Atlanta and is the county
seat of Spaulding County.  Carl Pruett will continue with the
investigation.  Please take note of the 'Starshine Satellite'
mentioned in last weeks Filer's Files. I've received a couple of
calls recently describing the traditional 'light in the sky'
sighting, if this satellite is for real, it could be the cause.
Thanks to MUFONGA's State Director Tom Sheets.  Editor's Note:
Fireballs and meteorite dropping fireballs can not be observed
all the way to impact with the ground?  Fireballs are not
generally visible below an altitude of 9 miles.  Between 48,000
to 63,000 feet altitude the meteoroid remnants will decelerate
to the point that the ablation process stops, and visible light
is no longer generated.  This occurs at a speed of about 2-4
km/sec, 4500 to 9000 mph. http://www.amsmeteors.org/faqf.html

ARIZONA

BISBEE ­ Scott Heckman writes, "I was with Mary Chestnut,
Christine and Scott Luton when we saw a silvery saucer, wobbling
as it hovered."  We were in a mining district called Warren, at
the Phelps-Dodge Mercantile Store on March 6, 1980.  Northwest
of us hovering over the mine tailings called "the # 7 dump" was
this disc.  I was driving the truck and immediately stopped in
the middle of the street.  We all jumped out of the truck
leaving the doors wide open watching this craft.  We gathered
together and stood in the road watching this wondrous craft
glinting in the light.  I telepathically thought towards the
craft, "I see you, show me that you know that I know."

Immediately as I transmitted my thoughts  the craft rose upon
edge -- so we could all clearly see that this was a perfectly
'round' saucer shaped craft.  The saucer then traveled the
length of the Mule Mountain to the divide.  We got in the truck
and followed it the short distance to Bakerville, where we
originally spotted the craft.  We had a good view here, and as
the saucer approached the Mule Mountain divide it again attained
flat and level flight.  It stopped and hovered wobbling over the
divide.  Scott telepathically asked for confirmation from the
craft. The UFO responded immediately by rising up onto it's rim
again as it flew south along the top of the ridge to the Mexican
Border.  Thanks to Scott Heckman.  Editor's Note:  Many report a
telepathic link with the craft inferring they are manned by
intelligent beings.

CALIFORNIA KC-135E AIRCRAFT SPRAY CONTRAILS CLOUDING SKY

During the month of June several types of aircraft were video
taped leaving heavy low level contrails over southwestern
California.  Two KC-10s were videotaped in formation.  The most
startling video showed a KC-135E aircraft spraying an unknown
substance from the tail boom of the aircraft leaving a thick
contrail.  The craft flew in a pattern across the sky at about
5000 feet.  Within minutes the blue sky started clouding over,
and within an hour there was a complete overcast. See photos at:

CROP CIRCLES IN CANADA

The first known crop formations in Canada for this year were
reported to the main Circles Phenomenon Research (CPR)- office
inVancouver, BC on July 25.  Drew Gauley, the Ontario
representative conducted an initial ground inspection.  Two
pictogram type formations close to Hagersville, Ontario  were
reported on July 22,  by Clynt King, whose brother, Ken, owns
the fields. Hagersville, Ontario #1 is a 300 feet long complex
pictogram in wheat.  It has circles, a rectangle,  a semi-ring
and other pathways along a main axis.  It is similar to some  of
the more complex early 90s formations in England.
Hagersville, Ontario #2 is a simple pictogram type formation,
about 65 feet long in wheat.  Two circles are connected by
various straight and curved  pathways.  Photos and video were
taken by the local TV news stations and will be available soon.
Arrangements are being made to try and get sampling done for the
BLT Research Team.  Based on initial descriptions, the larger of
the two formations may be the largest and most complex ever seen
in Canada.  Both formations contain elaborate layering patterns
of the wheat in various directions up to four layers deep.
Canada had  fourteen crop circle reported in 1998.  See

ABDUCTION EVIDENCE

After reading your files about collecting evidence of
abductions, I thought it might be helpful to add one my own
ideas to your collection.  While initiating a journal on strange
personal experiences,  I suddenly awoke in front of my mirror
trying to get black goo out of my eyes and being mentally told
that this was eye mail.  This seemed ridiculous, but 45 minutes
had mysteriously disappeared from my life.  I also found a
rather disturbing mess in my kitchen caused by my normally very
fastidious cats.  I was shocked beyond belief,  since there were
3 very large messes with a completely  unrecognizable odor.  I
feel it is possible that these messes may be clues to a sudden
fright to my pets.  My cats are now very nervous and become very
frightened and  alert to outside noises.  I suggest animal
behavior clues may be useful  in a officially investigated
abduction cases.  Thanks to  Jan at catfest@sympatico.ca.
Editors Note:  There are many cases where animals seem to have
been effected by our visitors.

BELGIUM TRIANGULAR  UFOs

OSTEND ­ During the last two weeks I had two sightings of
triangular shaped UFOs. Members of my family had another
separate sighting.  The first sighting was a really good one
that happened on a Saturday (July 3, 1999?)  My mother and
sister were driving back from Ostend to Bruges.  They were
driving next to some fields when they saw two bright white
lights in front of them.  When they got  closer they saw a
triangular shaped craft next to the road hovering about 7 meters
above a field.  The distance from the car to the UFO was no more
then 10 meters.  They stopped to take a picture, but as my
sister was about to photograph the UFO turned towards her and
started to land!  They were so scared they drove off in a panic
just as it touched the ground.  The UFO was silver/black with
lights on each corner.  In the center they saw a red pulsating
light.  On the back there was a huge tail looking thing.  BRUGES
-- This Saturday, my girlfriend and I were driving home when we
also saw two bright white lights.  I drove towards the lights
and hanging in the air next to a hospital, I saw a triangular
UFO!  I stopped the car as the UFO started to move.  It flew
around and returned to same spot it was hovering in the
beginning.  I started the car and it started moving again and I
lost track of it.  The craft was very big but it made no noise.
There has been allot of triangular UFO activity here lately.  My
girl friend made detailed drawings of the UFO. Thanks to:

ADMINISTRATOR CALLS CUTS TO NASA BUDGET 'DEVASTATING'

"The NASA team just launched Chandra, the world's most powerful
space telescope," NASA Administrator Dan Goldin said.  "Today,
we will have to turn it back on Washington to see what remains
of the NASA budget."  Last night, a U.S. House of
Representatives subcommittee passed a funding bill that cuts
NASA's budget about 11 percent below the President's request for
Fiscal Year 2000.  "Year after year, NASA is touted for doing
more and more with  smaller budgets," said  Goldin.  "The NASA
employees get up every day to achieve what most  think is
impossible and risen to the challenge of smaller budgets.  And
this is the reward the NASA team gets?  Not only is  this cut
devastating to NASA's programs, it is a knife in the  heart of
employee morale.  Goldin  said.  "NASA continues to deliver
amazing scientific discoveries  and reach new heights of
exploration.  To many Americans, NASA is  a cornerstone of our
national pride.  But there is nothing to be  proud of in this
budget.  "Over the past five years, NASA has restructured the
Agency,  done more with less, reduced government employees by
one-third without forced layoffs, and still significantly
increased  productivity.  Up until now, NASA has always stepped
up to the  budgetary challenge.  This time the NASA team plans
to fight.  These cuts would gut space exploration.  They may
force the  closure of one to three NASA centers with significant
layoffs" said Goldin.  The Administrator noted other
implications for the budget as well: *  For the past seven
years, the NASA budget has declined and,  because of inflation,
the Agency's buying power is already down by  one-third.  While
the subcommittee's cuts total $1.325 billion, if these  figures
are projected out five years, the cuts would total
approximately $5.3 billion.  As a result of the cuts, we would
be forced to eat our seed corn, and would  weaken America's
technological and defense sectors.  Perhaps most sadly, we will
lose the opportunity to inspire a future generation  of
children." "I won't feel better until every nickel is restored,"
said  Goldin.  Editor's Note: Dan Goldin only has to hint to the
press, what he tells friends privately, that UFOs are visiting
the Earth to get more funds.

WASHINGTON HAS NEW 'UFO' LOBBYING GROUP

The first lobbying group dedicated to UFO issues has opened for
business on Capitol Hill.  The Extraterrestrial Phenomena
Political Action Committee, X-PPAC, will lobby for more openness
from the federal government about possible evidence of alien
life.  The group's overriding goal, said founder Stephen
Bassett, is open congressional hearings on what he says is a
massive government secrecy effort that extends back to the
famously rumored 1947 crash in Roswell, New Mexico.  "We're
calling for open hearing from government witnesses who have
approached us and want to testify openly, about the big stuff,"
Basset said. "There are dozens of people and they want to talk.
If we get those hearings, the cover-up is over."  Bassett helped
launch a petition in 1997 to ask for open hearings. Now that the
Cold War is over, the government has less need to hide
information.  The group will also back open reforms like the
bipartisan Government Secrecy Reform Act  introduced by Sen.
Daniel P. Moynihan, D-N.Y., in January and is now sitting in the
Governmental Affairs Committee.  Thanks to Steven Bassett

ANTI MISSILE BLACK PROGRAM FUNDED ILLEGALLY

WASHINGTON -- The House Appropriations Committee is angry that
the Pentagon spent money on a black program that they believed
was closed down. The Air Force indicated that they were under
the impression the program had not been completely cancelled and
it was a matter of misinterpretation.  It is legal to switch
funds between programs provided Congress is notified of the
switch. The Air Force was also accused of taking money out of
research funds to help finance a new $800 million 'Milstar'
military communications satellite.  A Milstar satellite was lost
in space earlier this spring.  The report accused the Pentagon
and missile-defense officials of illegally financing a system
known as the Medium Altitude Air Defense program.  So far the
system has cost a $100 million and has been a failure.  The
Pentagon apparently diverted funds to keep the program alive.
The 'Star Wars' missile defense program could be useful in
defending against UFOs.  Editor's Note: The military is getting
only a small share of the funds it needs to replace old
equipment.

LINDA'S ARIZONA SIGHTINGS

Linda Hilton wrote: "I just wanted to comment that I have been
studying UFOs for many years because of a sighting I had in
1973.  I saw what looked like a stealth back then.  Underneath
it had a blue glow with sparks coming out like one those small
toys  where sparks fly out.  I ran to a neighbor's house who was
working underneath his truck.  By the time he reluctantly came
out the UFO was gone.  That's what first got me started in
researching UFOs, doing reports in college and talking to dozens
of people who have also seen UFOs.  My father-in-law saw one on
Tyler Lake, Texas in the 50s.  He was on his boat when a bright
multi colored light came toward him.  He got scared and left.
He is not one to lie or exaggerate.  I personally have seen
several UFOs this year.  Some are silver discs and one was a
tarnished gold crown hovering in the clouds.  Thanks to Linda

LIFE IS COMMON IN THE UNIVERSE

Robert Shapiro, a professor of chemistry at New York University,
has published a new book entitled "Planetary Dreams," by John
Wiley & Sons.  Shapiro feels the standard origin-of-life
theories are defective.  These theories depend on a miraculous
events: the once-in-a-universe spontaneous generation of nucleic
acids DNA or RNA that make up plant, animal, and microbial genes
or some related molecule.  Shapiro, a specialist in the
chemistry of DNA and RNA, marshals an array of data to argue
that the simplest kind of cellular life may arise as a
predictable result of organic chemistry and the physics of
self-organizing systems.  Whenever planets exist with the right
conditions life may form in a liquid or dense gas medium, a
suitable energy source, and a system of matter capable of using
the energy to organize itself.  He calls this hypothesis the
"life principle."  He argues that no predictable directions
exist for life's later development from these beginnings.  We
should send probes to Mars, Jupiter's moon Europa and Saturn's
moon Titan where life may exist.  It is likely we will find
chemical systems evolving in the direction of life, remnants of
extinct life or existing life.  Its possible there are only
wastelands without life.  The results will help decide which of
two very different views of the Universe is more nearly
correct."

U.S. GOVERNMENT UFO PROOF RELEASED: Audio tapes of a genuine UFO
Alert at Edwards Air Force base and studied by the Foreign
Technology Division at Wright Patterson Air Force Base, are now
available for distribution to the public.  Lunar Astronaut Dr.
Edgar Mitchell was at Edwards the night the UFO chase occurred.
The 6th person to walk on the moon said, "The night it happened
I investigated it myself and this was a real event."  Sam
Sherman's audio documentary tape called THE EDWARDS AIR FORCE
BASE ENCOUNTER on the night of October 7, 1965, uses the actual
voice recordings provided by the Air Force.  During this event
12 high tech luminous UFOs invade secure air space and came down
low over the runways at Edwards AFB.  Tower operator Sgt. Chuck
Sorrels spotted them and notified the Air Defense Command.  Sgt.
Sorrels is heard on the original tapes and in a new segment
where he verifies the event as it is heard on the archival
recordings.  The UFOs are described and a decision is made to
launch F-106 fighter interceptors.  Your there for an important
part of UFO history.  Hear it for yourself, its the best UFO
tape ever made.  Tape cost is $14.95 each plus $2.00 for
shipping -- total $16.95 -- you can send either a personal check
or money order to: Independent International Films, Box 565,
Dept. GF, Old Bridge, New Jersey 08857.
