I've been working on creating a new look for the website. Hope you like it. If you see any issues, just drop me a line and I'll fix it.
Here's a little fun I tossed in there: somewhere on the website is a hidden page. Think you can find it? You'll know it when you find it. :)

Who are the Bilderberg’s?

Hmm, that is an interesting question not easily answered. On paper they are a secret club of about 140 powerful and influential people who invite world leaders and the financial elite to come together once a year to discuss world issues...in secret. They first gathered in 1954 in the Bilderberg hotel near Arnhem, Netherlands.

Every year they try to hide the location and the people attending their secret meeting, but there is always a leak. They are unilaterally, the rich and the powerful coming together to decide how those of us who are not rich and powerful, should live our lives.

Now you’re saying, “so what.”  I know this seems like the ultimate conspiracy theory of a shadow government controlling ours, but it’s the things they discuss that have everyone’s hackles up. It is speculated they talk about population control, and a plans to take down national sovereignty, impose drastic austerity measures, hold fire sales on national assets, consolidate wealth and power, and use an endless economic crisis as an excuse to usher in world government, a one-world currency, and a sprawling high-tech police state. Finally, the Bilderberger's will work on an effort to sucker an already economically besieged American public into further fantastic debt producing bank bailouts, specifically for Greece, Ireland, Portugal, and other member EU nations sliding toward bankruptcy and social disruption on a monumental scale. In late 2010, the U.S. Treasury, now operating as a liaison between the government and the bank owned private Federal Reserve, indicated it was ready to fork over billions more to the European black hole. It is believed that our president, our government, get their marching orders from the decisions made at these Bilderberg meetings. It is said they even decided on who will become our next president, as unbelievable as that is.

These individuals seem to believe they are the King Makers and Breakers of the world. They are corporate conglomerates, big banks, politicians, royal elite, and people with more money than god. They believe the everyday world citizen is more like chattel, here to serve their needs. I’m sure they have their fingers in the world healthcare, because this would give them control of the population growth, and a smaller population would be easier to control.

Another part of the Bilderberg meetings which raises a few eyebrows is the media blackout. If what they are discussing is above board and beneficial to our society, then why the need to cover everything up? Why hide? Though, then again, the men in charge of the major media conglomerates are actually attending the Bilderberg meeting.

In my book Fathis: Birth of a Falcon the Bilderberg Group would fit into the Elite Military Industrial Complex which ultimately destroyed this dimension.

Some believe they are the dreaded Illuminati but I’ll get into them in another blog :)

Ever since I was little I have had odd occurrences that deal with light and dark entities. Though, I believe everyone has as well. Either they forgot about it, or are actively repressing it. In today's western culture it just isn't an acceptable topic to to talk about, even though everyone has had some sort of experience they cannot explain. You may not remember an experience right off the bat, but there is always something. Like a ouija board experience, or a ghost appearance. If a person does talk about the taboo subject, they are considered peculiar or a fanatic. But ignoring the entities in the other dimensions, wont make them go away.
I have a ridiculous memory. A  memory of an elephant, but not with exact names and dates. Like I remember when I first learned to walk, I remember being stuck in the cradle in my orange bedroom, annoyed because I wanted out. I remember kindergarten like it was yesterday. Let's just say, I remember my childhood clearly.

When I was about eleven, I remember a time when I was awoken in the middle of the night to a presence in my room. A dark, evil presence that sucked all the energy around it, into it. I was instantly wide awake and looked to that corner of the room. I couldn't physically see anything there, but I could feel it. It's kind-of like when you know someone is standing directly behind you. Without seeing them, you know they're there, you feel it. And this dark energy in one corner of my room had an energy that felt like fear, vindictive malice, and an insatiable hunger. Just plain evil. I knew I wasn't dreaming because I was just TOO awake. It wanted to frighten me. It fed off fear, and it wanted me to fear it and that is when I got angry. Really, really angry.
I got up, turned the light on, and returned to bed. I knew it could use the dark to feed me fear. Even after I turned the light on I could still feel it opposite my bed in that corner of my bedroom.
It didn't talk out-loud but I had the impression of thoughts in my head. When I talked to it, I understood what it thought back to me. (Which is where I got Mamachoo's form of communication from, for my book.)

I had a fairly odd conversation, as an eleven-year-old with this evil creature. The things that came out of my mouth were automatic responses to the entity, which I clearly remember to this day. It was as if it wasn't an eleven-year-old me speaking to it, but an older me. A much older me. I kept a conversation with it for more than 3 hours. Threatening it.
It went a little something like this:
"Get out of my room.
How dare you.
Who do you think you are?
Do you know who I am?
I'm older than you, stronger than you.
You can feel it, can't you?
I dare you to attack me, because I will destroy you.
I will shred you to pieces.
I will be the last mistake you've ever made.
How dare you disturb me."
Remember; I am a tiny little eleven year old. (I was always the smallest person in my class) But I remember saying those words. And I was furious that it woke me up and kept me up. I remember I was so mad I was shaking. But I also felt something deep inside me, build up within me-like an energy of some sort. It felt like I was a nuclear reactor that was about to overload, and I could feel this energy radiating off of me. I knew the presence could feel it too. It was obvious to me the presence was old and powerful, but I knew my soul was even older and stronger than it.
That was a revelation that hit me much later in life, when I went over the conversation I had with it. How could I have been so certain about my age and strength of my soul, unless deep down my soul knew it, and my alter self, my alter memory of who I am, was speaking for me. Which then begs to ask, where was my soul before I was born if I'm as old as this alter ego so claimed? In another life perhaps? Even today it is strange to me that I said what I said, but I still know it was true.
After a while I could feel this dark entity was scared of me because of the energy that was radiating off of me, and I considered getting up and tackling it head on...I was so mad. But instead I threatened it until it gave up.
It left at about 4am. One moment it was there, the next it disappeared. I had the impression it went out the window.

When it left, without any trepidation, I got up, turned off the light, and went right to sleep. I never had nightmares about it and I never felt a presence like that ever again.
Though, I did find a pair of rings with some dark entities attached to them, but that will be another blog.

and deep. And about three feet from the floor. The gold sparkles were three dimensional, so some were closer to me than others. And each sparkle was about the size of a grain of rice. I wanted to look and see if my cat could see it, but I didn't want to take my eyes off of it. I should have put my hand out to touch it, but I was so shocked. I just stood there watching it until it faded away.
I've read that some believe it was an angel or some celestial being. I have no idea, but something was there. And again, it never happened again.

But there appears to be good and bad entities out there that occasionally make their way into our dimension. I imagine once we die a majority of it will be cleared up, but it's kind of funny how they like to poke their little noses into our world. Like this is some place they all desire to be.

Have I been?
Yes. But so has everyone else, they just don’t remember. It naturally occurs when we sleep. Ever get that odd sensation of jerking awake, feeling like you just physically hit the bed? Well, that is your astral body returning to your physical body, from the Astral Realm.
Have I been there consciously?
Yep, and it took years of practice.
There is a page in this website telling you how to start practicing it, if you’re brave enough.

Am I some kind of expert on it?
Absolutely not. Matter of fact I will not tell you more than what is on this website. The rest is for you to discover the truth, not for me to tell you. Everyone comes away from it with a different experience so there is no way I could tell you “this is so” or “that is so”. And anyone who claims to be an expert is full of it. The only experts are YOUR guides.

What are Guides?
We all have guides. Some people have more than others. And like Kealin says in Fathis: Birth of a Falcon, I do find them a little annoying sometimes. But by no means should you disrespect them, because they will school you’re a**!

Is Astral Realm witch craft?
Heavens no! It is literal place, or I should say places. You can visit Jesus, or Buda if you so desire, or whomever from whatever religion. There are lower realms that are the equivalent of Hell and upper realms that are the equivalent of Heaven. But it is bigger than our known universe.

Are there dark evil entities there?
Yes, there are. So you must be very careful. They exist there easier than they do on this dimension.

Are the Akashic Records real?
They sure are. And as Kealin puts it in my book, “The Universe’s biggest, dullest library.” Among other things, it keeps records of everybody in every dimension, so you can imagine it is enormous.

What about the “God light”?
Again that is for you to discover, not for me to tell you.

All I can say is, doing is believing. Wanna learn more? Practice going into the Astral Realm.

In Fathis: Birth of a Falcon there are two dimensions which I call the Lower and Upper Dimensions. I took creative license in these polar opposite worlds, but here is one of the inspirations I found in creating them.

A strangle anomaly that few have knowledge of; there are these occurrences of what is called a polar vortex which is a persistent, large-scale cyclone located near one or both of a planet's geographical poles. In essence polar tornadoes, but I refrain from calling them weather anomalies because of the scientific studies done on them. But, the polar vortices are located in the middle and upper troposphere and the stratosphere. The Antarctic polar vortex is stronger than the Northern and they are described as a stationary, spinning, gray fog in appearance.

Now here is the weird part; scientists in April of 2001, sent a weather balloon into the Antarctic one, and attached a meteorological instrument to it that calibrated temperature, barometric pressure, humidity, wind speed and a scientific chronometer to record the times of the readings.

They attached a cable to the balloon, and released it. The balloon and instrument were immediately sucked into the swirling vortex and disappeared.

After a several minutes, they decided to retrieve the balloon. Despite some difficulty they succeeded in bringing the balloon back to earth and checked the instruments and were stunned by the readout on the chronometer. It displayed a date, January 27, 1965.

The scientists repeated the experiment several times with the same result.

Read more about it here: http://www.eutimes.net/2011/04/deadly-time-vortex-appears-over-antarctica/  The next link is scientific research from Brown University on technical data about the vortex. http://www.cfm.brown.edu/people/sean/Vortex/

Time travel tornado? Weird. Whether there have been any more studies on it, I don't know. But I'm sure whatever government is in charge of that portion of Antarctica, is all over it. Who wouldn't want a time machine?

And as I stated before in an earlier blog, I know I am one of the few people that remembers Nelson Mandela dying in prison. I, at least, am certain I was either originally apart of another dimension or there was some sort of bleed through, letting me be temporarily a part of another dimension, which has been called the Mandela effect.

See the Part 1, below this entry.
Other
There is a belief that when the "second coming" comes, when we cross the galactic plane, when we enter the age of Aquarius, something historic and metaphysical occurrence will be thrust onto humanity, like Rapture or a dimensional split, separating souls into different dimensions.

Now on a personal level, I will say this; (some of my friends know this) but I swear on the life of my cat that this is true; I have a memory of Nelson Mandela dieing in prison years ago. Between 1986 and 1989. I was still a kid then, but I remember it. There were demonstrations and riots all over Africa. I remember watching the news on it. I remember it vividly, because the protesters were so mad and I thought it was sad because he never got out of jail. There was a big funeral and everything. It was as big and media hot, as Diana's death.
But I know your saying, “no, he’s alive”.
Now, I would discount it maybe as a dream-BUT there are other people who have the same memory as me. They are only a few, but I have found at least one other person. And read it from others.

So what I’m saying is, at some point, me in another timeline, joined with me, in this dimension. (And I’m certain it wasn’t a dream.) Physicists say that dimensions could resemble bubbles. Maybe then two bubbles merged, and here I am.

In my book, I have two dimensions where the souls with enlightened karmic levels reside, and those with less than admirable qualities reside and souls are not shared. Of course the (old) Elite reside in the Lower Dimension, and the more evolved sentient Fathis Elite, reside in the Upper Dimension.

Personally, I do believe that some agreement was made with Aliens during the Eisenhower’s era (stated during an earlier blog under "president") and it truly ticks me off. Allowing extraterrestrials access to us human beings is not the kind of thing one man on earth can represent. If anything, it was a mistake the E.T.s made believing, the US as the technologically predominate society on earth and that we elected Eisenhower, meant he idolizes and encompasses everything we earthlings believe and represent. This is an egregious mistake on their part. We are an individualistic society. Just like we could not choose one person to represent all religions on our planet, we could not choose one man to represent our interactions and understanding of an extraterrestrial species. It is up to the individual. It may seem chaotic but that’s the facts of humanity. The contract Eisenhower made with them, should have died with him. For the contract to be legal, it should be presented to the entire population-not to one man. Then again, it did work out to the E.T.s advantage and landing the US government's balls in a vice. Our government is now powerless against the extraterrestrial technological might, and can’t tell us, for fear of utter anarchy aimed at them. Talk about screwing up...

Weather occurrences and their strengths, seem to be scaling up a notch every rotation the earth takes around the sun. This we can easily say is happening before our eyes. Many call it global warming...I personally, do not think this can all be accounted to one thing.
So far we’re dealing with it. Many sort-of raise their eyebrows to the events going on around us. But otherwise, unless a person is personally confronted with the event, people are just cataloging it in their mind as a surprising anomaly.
You could even categorize stronger than normal earthquakes in this field. But I believe earthquakes and volcanoes belong in the “Natural Space Events”.

Natural Space Events
Seismology and volcanologists study the earth and its crusts, but I believe they need to look up. If the moon is strong enough to pull zillions of tons of water into waves around the planet, then it is strong enough to manipulate the earth’s crust. And the sun’s gravitational field would also be able to shift the crust on our planet, as well. If things heated up and there was a sudden pull from both, how would our planet handle it? How would the people of earth handle worldwide seismic calamities? Like what happened in Haiti or Japan or Indonesia, with tsunamis and fires, and the breakdown of nuclear power plants? No one would be able to help anyone, because they would be dealing with their own problems.

In space there is a multitude of events and near misses that happen every day around us.

Sun flares are a typical occurrence. If a flare was strong enough, and blew by the earth, it would create an all-consuming electronic wipe-out. This EMP pulse would burn-out everything from defense satellites to your iPod, sending the civilization to a standstill. The only electronics that would be safe, would be the things deep underground.

How would we survive without our electronics? What if there was nothing to clean or pump water to our home? Or a way to travel out of a city because all the vehicles, run by computers chips, have stopped working. It would be chaos and mass hysteria. And worldwide. Ironically, the less civilized societies on our planet would be impacted the least. To them it would still be business as usual.

And suppose a large meteorite hit the earth. It would send us into a mini ice age, at the least. It would likely set off earthquakes worldwide. Volcanoes would blow from the pressure, and new ones would emerge from the crust, sending ash high into the stratosphere.

Scary stuff, but it all happened in the past, in my book.

Manmade Events

How about that civil unrest? Already it plagues the population as the ones “who have” get more, and the ones “who have not” get even less. It will only get worse the larger the divide becomes. And when a person has no home, no food, and no hope, the reason to stay civil becomes blurred. Then there are the people “trying” to run the show, also known as the Industrial Military Complex, or Illuminati, or the Elite, who become bolder as 12/21/12 approaches.

In order to write believable characters it is always good to have pieces of you, in each character. To people who know me, it is easy to see what parts are me and what parts are contrived. It is good to have characters that vastly differ from one another, gives the story texture. But no one I know is safe really, I’ll take pieces of people I know and incorporate them into characters throughout.

*Each position on the team is associated with a color and a gem stone that is applied to a team’s mascot pin.

Na’tan is the typical controlling personality with a bit of an anxiety disorder. Everyone knows someone like this. Either a parent, a spouse, or sibling that takes on the role of a leader trying to protect everyone and stressing out on “what could happen”. This makes Na’tan a perfect Captain for the Peregrine Falcons.

I guess I do have a bit (LOL) of a controlling attribute but not the anxiety. Na’tan also has a superiority complex, an arrogance that I know I appear to have sometimes. And the feeling that I must always be in control and try to imagine every possible scenario-yeah that’s me.

Na'tan not only has a keen understanding of the smaller parts to a bigger picture, but can see how the bigger picture can influence the universe, which again, makes him an excellent Captain. Over time Na’tan had to learn, and still struggles with, letting go of controlling others. He has a tendency to blame himself if anything goes wrong, and internally beats himself up, until it is almost considered an mental disorder. Thankfully everyone on the team can hear his internal thoughts and can stop him before he goes too far.

Kealin is a girly girl, which I am not. But she is also driven to never being nailed down to anything, which is me to the hilt.

Freedom in all things is beyond important to me, freedom of belief, thoughts, even being tied physically to a place or title.

Yet, Kealin’s avoidance of anything new, is a friend of mine. Kealin will change drastically over the series of the books. Right now, she lacks confidence in everything, especially herself. In her teenage passive aggressive way, she does fight against the concept of being a part of this team because of her trust issues. Again, being forced to be on the Peregrine Falcons goes against her personality, so trusting a group of people and their abilities is currently a bit of a reach for her. But in time, she will come to trust them, and even rely on them. She is also naive and believes that everyone has a loftier goal at heart.

Cornac is that guy that knows he’s gorgeous and has no problem flaunting it and using it to influence people. Everyone knows a guy like this, the hot quarterback, the confident guy who has no problem swaggering into a room full of people, because he thinks everyone in the room either wants to be him or know him. His charisma can be construed as conceit, but let’s face it, guys like that usually get what they want. Cornac and his crude thoughts are without a doubt me. But he enjoys pushing the boundaries and finds life to be amusing. He’s very relaxed and doesn’t stress because he believes life is short. When you gotta go, then it’s time to go, so might as well try everything full throttle until then.

I suppose that is my belief as well. If you don’t try things and push your boundaries then what’s the point of living this life. But I have to say, a part of Cornac is my cat. He knows he's gorgeous, and that he can get whatever he wants with one look.

One of the hardest things I’ve ever had to do was write for Nicholas. He is considered the most intelligent and manipulative on the team. Being an Intelligence Information Officer makes it his prerogative to be this way, though I do not get into his craftiness in this book. He has to be able to subtly, psychologically, manipulate alien societies/beings to complete his team’s objective. Nicholas is required to know all the players and their culture. He appears to be the quiet contemplative type who tries to discover all sides to a theory, or person, or situation. Generally IIO are the most intelligent and use more of the brain power than the rest of their teammates. Their memory capacity is beyond measure and for good reason.

I suppose my characteristic that I add to Nicholas is I do know how to manipulate people and situations. Like I said, I didn’t get into the manipulative aspect of Nicholas in this book, I only get into his intelligence and drive for knowledge. But it is difficult writing about a person smarter than yourself. Very difficult. I know what he does-thinks-sees, yet to get it down in words that are a fair representation of Nicholas, is difficult to say the least.

Henry and his blinded belief that everyone has good intentions, has a hard time understanding those who are evil. He is compassionate almost to a fault. Henry cares deeply for everyone, not just his teammates. The only time Henry loses his temper is when a teammate willfully jeopardizes their health. But he continually tries to placate opposing personalities with his gentle disposition. He is a nurturer but finds being on a Fathis team invigorating and a testament of testing his limits as a healer. Henry is the Falcon’s moral compass and is the loving father figure everyone can rely on.

Henry is possibly the character that is least like me, but I know several people that emulate him.

Hands down my favorite character is Ray-cause he’s such an ass. In the first book he hates Kealin. In the second, he does a 180 and becomes overprotective of her. You get a feel for his extreme personality. Ray is always misinterpreted and appears to look at things in a black and white manner. He blatantly speaks his mind (his “filter button is broken”). “Tactless” would be a good word for Ray. And he fully embraces  his OCD’s. Everything in his life/world must be perfectly in-order, and anything that seems chaotic and unpredictable (Kealin), he shies away from. His ego is ridiculously enormous.  You may love him, you may hate him, but he is who he is, and Ray’s changing for no one. He would share similar characteristics with Sheldon Cooper from Big Bang Theory on CBS, except Ray knows how to physically fight. All his pent-up frustrations and anger, is funneled into his fighting skills, making him as lethal as a martial arts expert.

Being misunderstood is something I can relate to. Many times something comes out of my mouth is misinterpreted completely. So many times...  And people always seem to believe there is an ulterior motive, but 98% of the time it’s just their suspicious mind over-thinking what I’ve said. Matter of fact, if I say something and you don’t “feel” you’re being misled, is when I am misleading a person :) (That is where my "Nicholas characteristics" comes out) And again people do seem to believe I am tactless at times (I'm just being truthful). And when I was young I used to think Sesame Street was demeaning. I couldn’t stand watching it. Of course, I didn’t know the word “demeaning” at the time, but there ya go. That is a very "Ray observation".

Thatcher is a loner with an eccentric disposition. In the past he struggled with being different, but came to the healthy conclusion that he is who he is, and he shouldn’t care if he fit-in with his fellow Engineers. Soon, he learned to embrace his differences, making him more confident yet more reclusive. Thatcher is very relaxed and has a certain boyish charm, though can appear strange to people outside his team because of his habit of saying incomplete thoughts. Thatcher could spend days absorbed in a piece of equipment and not even realize days have gone by. Usually his emotions are so strong that they affect him physically. And he shows little interest in anything beyond his technical universe, making him appear lazy.

I can be a bit of a loner. I could spend days without talking to anyone, and it doesn’t bother me one bit. And I have gotten tunnel vision where time, doesn’t seem to exist.

Many of these characters is an extension of me but there are also pieces of people that I know. Who do I relate to the most, would be a toss-up between Na’tan and Ray.
For example:
Say I place a food order, I want this food to be “just so” (Na’tan). I like to eat one item on my plate at a time (Ray), but every so often I like to mix things up just to screw with myself (Cornac). My construed splitting of my personality makes the characters come alive in Fathis: Birth of a Falcon.

I started organizing the next book. I've written sections of it already but I'm trying to decide where to end it...
And I'm trying to decide if I should chop it up and make them into novellas.
Any opinions?
