Cheryl Costa Interview, UFO sightings Desk Reference: a whole lotta stats suggest we have ET visitors?

"Well if 70 percent or 218.69 million Americans think the government is not being forthcoming and transparent about this UFO business, isn't it time to present some data?"  - Cheryl Costa - reporter for the Syracuse New Times, co-author with Linda Miller Costa, of the new UFO Sightings Desk Reference 2001-2015.


Interview with Cheryl on Wendy's Coffeehouse. Good news for those who are curious about local details in the USA, the City Directory is in the works. A possible TV deal is also being discussed. No details on that yet.

Some of the links related to this show are highlighted in a previous post: Link. Refresher here on the Pigeon studies and their aptitude for abstract: University of Iowa

Back to the UFO Sightings Desk Reference, USA 2001-2015. No stories, just charts, graphs and stats. One stat Cheryl and her partner worked out: Only 1 in 42 people reports a sighting.

Couple of notes from the current book:
1. Observers who report UFOs can be flagged in a search by two activities. They smoke and/or they have dogs.
2. Leisure time and temperate weather play a part in the sightings.

Cheryl was a kid when she saw her first UFO. 1965, late August, just before school started. The family, loaded in the car, returning home, still out in the country when they saw a curious object hovering in the sky. It stayed for some 20 minutes or so, silver and round and definitely unexplained.

Having multiple people see the UFO gave it credence. She and her mom talked about it and even though Cheryl says she didn't go full throttle UFO researcher mode at that time, her curiosity was piqued. A second sighting kept the interest alive but it was the downtime in an apartment stocked full of UFO reading material that sealed the deal. Researcher mode fully engaged.


Accolades from readers and other researchers are a testament to the credibility of the work presented in the book, the New York Times had a great piece on Cheryl and Linda.

A plug for Stanton Friedman. Cheryl says his stuff inspired her to dig deeper into the UFO phenom. Why is he so fascinating? Explore - http://www.stantonfriedman.com/

On a related note and geared toward those who are interested in the experiencer research, I've interviewed Kathleen Marden (Niece of Betty and Barney Hill) a couple of times. Most recently with 
Denise Stoner about their book on Alien Abductions: Conscious Living with Wendy Garrett on Empower Radio, The Alien Abduction Files Kindle Edition

County sightings are available for Jackson County, MO and Johnson County, KS. Cheryl notes those and leaves us with a tease... She says "something interesting coming up in the New York Times in the next couple of months." And certainly, we will reconnect. The curious is out there and it's also very much alive and kickin' right here in the heartland.

Booked for January, 2018 - Paul Davids is back. This time he's sharing some of the wild stuff he experienced as a guinea pig in a CIA mind-control experiment.

John Selby and Paul Jeffrey Davids, the authors of Blowing America’s Mind: A True Story of Princeton, CIA Mind Control, LSD and Zen, were among Princeton University students in the late 1960’s who got tangled up in these secret experiments at the nearby New Jersey Neuro‐Psychiatric Institute’s Bureau of Research.

To paraphrase the language on their site, if it took the authors '50 years to de-condition their own minds and remember what was done to them at the Institute and Princeton in 1967, it might indicate the subversive power of memory-blocking research.' - Website

UFO Sightings Desk Reference, Cheryl Costa, ETs, Belief, Neutrinos and Epigenetics

“At the atomic level, matter does not even exist with certainty; it only exists as a tendency to exist.”-  Bruce H. Lipton, The Biology of Belief: Unleashing the Power of Consciousness, Matter and Miracles

Here are links for the topics referenced in my show, 12/6/17, Conscious Living on Empower Radio regarding the Wendy's Coffeehouse (podcast already up!) interview with Cheryl Costa on what will undoubtedly become a 'go to' Ufology resource, the UFO Sightings Desk Reference: United States of America 2001-2015

"It is the reference “U.F.O. researchers dreamed of having,” Gordon G. Spear, emeritus professor of physics and astronomy at Sonoma State University in California, writes in the foreword." - From the piece on Cheryl in the New York Times: UFOs Everywhere!

• After talking with Cheryl, I do a quick search and here it is. A sighting with the pertinent earmarks:  Dog, Smoker, Daily routine. Let the dog outside. Boom: Columbia, Mo. Sighting Dec. 5, 2017. Case Number 88571. UFO Stalker, Massive in size, shaped like a boomerang. All the neighborhood dogs were barking. Reflective material on the craft made it seem almost transparent, surrounded by cloud like substance. He tried to take a photo but it didn't appear on the camera.
• The UFO I reported in 2013 [wendy] was small and it was inside the house. Incredible moment for me, to say the least. Awakened by the soft growling of the dog, I thought the cat was creeping in, then saw an object with glowing lights hovering near the window and close to the ceiling. Dinner plate sized, round, the lights were clear and 2 - 3 inches in diameter: red and green. I focused hard, intending to imprint the memory, count the lights and detect a pattern (none). Instantaneously, it shifted to the outside of the house. Through the wall, without a sound. I could see the lights between the blinds and understood it would not allow further contact. My husband slept through it and the dog never barked. Alert but not threatened.
• In the UFO Sightings Desk Reference: United States of America 2001-2015, Cheryl Costa and Linda Miller Costa provide charts, maps, numbers and stats. Patterns emerge. Questions remain but the blueprint for understanding the phenom starts here. It doesn't cover Alien Abduction. Cheryl says they took a lot of flack for that but rather than stories, the numbers are the focus. Detailing some of our conversation in upcoming post. Already up on the podcast site, interview airs on KCMO Talk Radio 710 - December 10, 2017, 8pm central. 
• The stories are out there. Ex: After an encounter with a UFO and the occupants within, the Artist began producing artwork in an effort to reduce fear and educate and inform whomever on the planet might have an interest that there are ETs who want their presence known, ETs who appear to be bookmarking a date for a more public introduction at some point in our intergalactic future.

• Fascinating Animal Science. Learning how Pigeons perceive Time and Space could upend our current view of time and space being different dimensions. (Might connect a few dots on how ETs/Space Intelligences can shift the time-line:
  
  • How to Contact Space People. NOTE: read the comments on that book.)
• Particle Physics experiment underway. IceCube Collaboration. Are Neutrinos the key to discovering higher dimensions? Newsweek
  
  • In my contact with spirit guides and others in the non-corporeal realm, they refer to themselves as 'transdimensional'. Contact is telepathic and varies in intensity.
• Open Minded People view reality differently, revealed in testing of "binocular reality." More to the point, open minded people remain flexible to a broader range of sensory input. That aspect is demonstrated in an exercise highlighting 'selective attention' ...
  Take the test. Did you see it?
  
  • Could apply to situations where some people 'see' ghosts, ufos and paranormal phenomena while others at the same scene 'see' nothing. And both are right, given their unique perspective.
• An Uber driver caught the incredible moment a semi truck wiped out but the scene stealer is the meteor fly-by in the background. Mirror
• Newsweek Special Edition: Life Beyond Earth - Includes a piece questioning the complete lack - after Project Blue Book - of gov interest or dialogue on UFOs. Research: Archives,gov
  
  • That's a lead into the treasure trove of declassified docs house on The Black Vault.
• Consciousness and Epigenetics. "Through the research of Dr. Lipton and other leading-edge scientists, stunning new discoveries have been made about the interaction between your mind and body and the processes by which cells receive information. It shows that genes and DNA do not control our biology, that instead DNA is controlled by signals from outside the cell, including the energetic messages emanating from our thoughts." - Biology of Belief

In this video, Jean Walker shares her story. She worked with her brother to recover some of the childhood memories.



Jean's stories cover a wide variety of encounters. Her grandmother was incredibly psychic and that relationship offered a positive PSI influence. Jean remembers being followed by an alien and afraid of him. She said he was small in stature, wore a silver suit and hid out in a pond. She also talks about seeing fairies, a Bigfoot sighting and more. A MUFON investigator, she is currently tracking several interesting cases.

We are planning to talk again in January and include investigator Margie Kay to follow up on the cases and other experiences the two have had together while researching or attending other events. Missouri MUFON

Wendy's Coffeehouse Interview with Dr. Scott Kolbaba, Doctors share their experiences with miracles and the unexplained. Physicians Untold Stories

Description: "Dreams foretelling future events, apparitions, and other miraculous experiences fill this book, as practicing doctors recount the most unusual moments of their careers."

About Dr. Kolbaba: "After a miraculous experience where he was given divine knowledge that a patient needed a lung scan, which ultimately saved his life, Kolbaba became intrigued by unexplained phenomenon many doctors see during their professional careers. He spent three years compiling this anthology of amazing occurrences."

My favorite story is the one we teased in the KCMO interview, 'Christmas (Mary) Carol' but don't have time to share. He shares it with me on Conscious Living - 11/29/17 - on Empower Radio.

The story involves a curmudgeonly patient who has a NDE. She has a chat with her deceased Grandmother and things shift. What did Grandma say? Worth reading the book for that one and for all of the stories. There are some extraordinary experiences. Great to hear from the Doctors, many who say, given the incredible nature of the event they encountered, it changed their life.

Reminder that we often get help in ways we do not expect nor can we explain. The mystery is alive and well.   

Reviews on the Amazon, this one speaks to the general overview:

Laura L. Padgett - July 31, 2017 - "Loved the inspirational stories in this book. As a medical professional I have seen many events I could never explain. The stories chronicled here remind us that not everything we see is explainable by the lens of science. Very engaging, well-written book and I look forward to more work by this author."

Dr. Kolbaba is inviting story submissions for his next book: PhysiciansUntoldStories.com
