Whether one believes in UFOs or extra-terrestrial spacecraft is not relevant here. The question is, can such mysterious anomalies such as UFOs (unidentified flying objects) on our military defense radar screens be mistaken for incoming enemy ICBMs (intercontinental ballistic missiles)?

Officially, that question has long been answered by world governments: Yes, these UFOs have caused great international concern, confusion, and near-panic within the international strategic military defenses around the globe. Considering that such repercussions have already proved dangerous between nucleararmed nations on 24/7 alert against
any pre-emptive missile attack, this unexplained UFO situation demands serious contemplation. Because the risk of accidentally triggering a massive nuclear war and the total end of human existence on Earth is greatly at stake. UFOS ON RUSSIAN RADAR
ALMOST TRIGGERED MILITARY RESPONSE. In the past, there have been several internationally-tense moments of concern, such as in 1982, when the Russian military picked up a formation of UFOs heading straight in their direction! Russian paranoia had them view these fast-moving targets as possible incoming American ICBMs in a

probable nuclear preemptive (first strike) attack against the country of Russia.
The Russian military machine has only precious seconds to determine if a ‘nuclear launch retaliation’ signal should be enacted! There is no time for a formal bureaucratic discussion with the Kremlin. It is a military axiom that the first strike by any nuclear-armed nation is the most advantageous one in any theoretical thermonuclear war. A preemptive nuclear attack has the greatest margin of victory, even though such a devastating exchange would be costly on both sides. With key ground-command-posts immediately destroyed as first-priority targets, these radar missile-launch sites must be trained to act autonomously to ensure survival, at best.
UFO VELOCITIES RESEMBLE ICBMs. When the Russian military radar shields were tracking these 1982 UFOs, the incoming UFO formation was moving at speeds and ‘directional movement’ exactly matching airborne missiles, which further heightened the Russian alertresponse military system. Then, suddenly, the UFOs broke formation and veered sharply off path and away from south-central Ukraine, the very area they were quickly descending on! (The sovereign state of Ukraine is bordered by Russia to the east and northeast and

I'm sure that Burma Shave actually saved some lives. People laughed and then were more careful! It was a REAL "service" to America, even though it was an advertisement and it was one of the RARE "really useful" ones!
For those who never saw any of the Burma Shave signs, here is a quick lesson in our history of the 1930's and '40's. Before there were interstates, when everyone drove the old 2-lane roads, Burma Shave signs would be posted all over the countryside in farmers' fields. They were small red signs with white letters. Five signs, about 100 feet apart, each containing 1 line of a 4 line couplet and the obligatory 5th sign advertising Burma Shave, a popular shaving cream.
still maintains a Russian naval base there.)
RUSSIA VOICES DEEP CONCERNS OVER UFOs TRIGGERING NUCLEAR WAR. In a most extraordinary expression of concern, the Russians published an article titled, “UFOs and Security,” (translated here from the original Russian), which appeared in the official Soviet Military Review. Michael C. Luckman, from the Directory of the New York Center for UFO Research, called the Russian statement on UFOs and security, “An extraordinary admission that UFOs are real.”
For nuclear-equipped nations, there is no greater height of concern and urgency than to eliminate any accidental launch of nuclear weapons on a massive, global scale – a true life possibility that, in the past, were almost instigated by the mysterious presence of UFOs on our combat defense systems.
This was far from being the first UFO encounter which pushed us to the very brink of World War III. That the heads of Russia, China, and the United States have already come dangerously close to suspecting incoming UFO formations as a squadron of enemy ICBMs – all have been kept highly classified to deter widespread public alarm and panic in these three superpower nations.

enough to worry over, adding to the crushing dilemma is the critical time factor. The leaders of all 3 major nuclear governments have only precious minutes to decide how to respond. This, obviously, includes the leader of the Western World, the U. S. President.
Whether China or Russia is making a legitimate mistake regarding confusing UFOs with a U.S. missile attack, or if they are intentionally launching a first-strike against the United States, the U.S. President must always be prepared to make the gravest of decisions -- on very short notice. Missiles launched from Russia, for example, would give the president approximately 20 minutes (at most) to make a decision for a full retaliation with thermonuclear missiles. This small window of time would involve a quick consultation with the head of the U. S. Strategic Command. However, to make an already-horrific scenario worse, the president might have as little as 5 minutes to respond, if missiles were launched from Russian submarines in the western Atlantic.
America’s Star Wars EW (Early Warning) satellites would detect Russian ICBMs less than 3 minutes after they were launched and targeting America’s mainland. In addition to the 3-minute alert from our earlywarning satellite shield, America’s premier radar tracking network, NORAD (North American Aerospace Defense Command), would afford their own personnel only a crucial, additional 3 minutes to scramble and LED TO A WARMER HEMISPHERE.

quickly analyze and re-check all radar sensors to make certain – if an actual nuclear missile attack is raining down on American soil! There is, simply, no room for error.
It is a harrowing decision, because the balance of human civilization as we know it, is at stake! Such a hasty decision to launch a full retaliatory missile attack runs the risk of killing, literally, hundreds of millions of innocent people -- by mistake! As one high-ranking Air Force officer commented on the U. S. launching nuclear-tipped missiles: “Once they’re gone, they’re gone!”
UFOs PUT STRESS ON RUSSIA, CHINA, AND U. S. MILITARY DEFENSE SYSTEMS. Bruce Blair, an ex-Minuteman launch officer has gone on record emphasizing the tremendous stress-level that such a real, or mistaken, Russian attack, places on our military infrastructure, such as our “Command and Control Systems.” That UFOs invade international air space and then often ‘buzz’ (or fly at close quarters) to our sensitive, high-security military installations, creates extra havoc and, sometimes, dangerous internationallytense moments of “launch or not-tolaunch” nuclear missile scenarios.

but its more current usage became evident in the aftermath of the “Cuban Missile Crisis,” when John F. Kennedy, and our military network, became increasingly concerned over a possible Soviet preemptive nuclear missile strike from Cuba, just 90 miles off our shores.
However, due to high-level secrecy of the time, the UFO phenomena also played a key role in the critical need to create the nuclear football. UFOs were viewed during the John F. Kennedy administration as an extreme danger of accidentally triggering an all-out nuclear war between the Soviet Union and the United States. In a recently declassified memorandum dated November 12, 1963 and stamped “TOP SECRET,” Kennedy sends a message to the Central Intelligence Agency under the subject: “Classification Review of All UFO Intelligence Files Affecting National Security.” President Kennedy’s memo raised grave concerns over UFO activity which could endanger world peace by being mistakenly identified as incoming nuclear ICBMs, for both the Soviet Union and the United States. Kennedy proposes a mutual program of recognition of UFOs between both countries and ends his memorandum with: “This will help mission directors in their defensive responsibilities.”
Sadly, before Kennedy’s UFO program could be initiated, he would be assassinated 10 days after submitting the above CIA memo.

The legacy of UFOs, nevertheless, played a necessary role (which was cloaked in secrecy at the time) in the creation of the U. S. President’s Atomic Football, which remains a mainstay, to this day. Wherever the president goes there is always an armed presidential military aide close by who carries, at all times, a black briefcase that contains a book of nuclear codes in the event of a preemptive nuclear strike against the United States while he is away from fixed command centers. This allimportant briefcase is referred to in a variety of vernacular such as, the “Nuclear Football” or “Atomic Football,” or “The Button,” and “The President’s Emergency Satchel.” It weighs approximately 45 pounds and has a small antenna protruding near the bag handle, according to Bill Gulley, the former director of the White House Military Office. The aide with the ‘football’ occasionally attaches it, physically, around his waist with a security cable. No chances are risked – the aide who is entrusted with the atomic football has undergone the nation’s highest and most rigorous background check, known as “Yankee White.” The nuclear football, itself, is a complicated mechanism containing retaliatory options and codes for the Emergency Alert System, with classified site locations for all our nuclearlaunch areas, including our nuclear subs, which have nuclear warheads. Aside from ground and air-launch capability, our nuclear-strike submarines, such as the Ohio-class variety, remain a most effective deterrent against any preemptive strike against us. The Ohio-class guided-missile nuclear submarine is referred to as

“The Ultimate Beast,” and for good reason. One sub is capable of taking out entire countries, by itself! To expound, one Ohio-class nuclear sub, for example, has the launch-power of 5,000 Hiroshima bombs! That is enough to not only turn entire countries into ash, but enough overkill to make the rubble bounce, multiple times! That the U.S. has 18 sister ships, all Ohio-class nuclear submarines with this capability -- and all are virtually undetectable, even when ‘running silent,’ at a high tactical speed -- renders any first-strike intention as suicidal for any aggressor!
All of this, as well as airborne command posts (SAC) are at the president’s disposal, which illustrates the unlimited power that any U.S. President possesses at the crossroads of decision-making which could invoke World War III.
Nonetheless, it is a horrific scenario to be avoided at all costs. A scenario that UFOs have come close to triggering.
UFOs ARE SECRETLY A REQUIRED STUDY BY MAJOR NATIONS. That UFOs have already caused great international concern has made their study a requirement for all nuclear-armed nations. America, China, England, France, Israel, and Russia have, for years, secretly conducted research programs regarding UFOs and their possible threat to our security, as well as causing confusion and anxiety amongst co-existing countries on planet Earth.

One official Russian UFO research program ran from 1978 to 1990. Some Russian UFO studies date much older than that; some are still in existence under classified status.
The motivation behind all major countries plunging into secret UFO research programs are all based on inter-country suspicions, military paranoia, and hostile mindsets. As one Pentagon official stated: “Much of the motivation for this interest (of UFOs) was the worry that the strange things being reported in the sky might be Soviet – or today, Russian or Chinese – aircraft.” However, in the possibility that UFOs might be more than just unidentified flying objects, but, conceivably inter-planetary spacecraft from another world, then the Russian UFO guidelines clearly state (translated from Russian): “In the case of verifying actual paranormal (or space alien intelligence), any acquired extraterrestrial technology is to be applied for military use.”

Man About Town
Growing Up . . .
I grew up in a place called Omaha, Nebraska. The city was named after a local Indian, Barney Omaha, in recognition of his many contributions to modern day society which included his building of, and dedication to the city, of both Fontanelle Hotel and Fontenelle Park, named after a distant cousin who had earned many merit badges for scalping.
But that was long before my time. I lived in Omaha long after the tents and wikiups and hogans of the Indian were gone. We lived in a very hoity toity part of Omaha called Benson, a northwestern suburb. Benson also had a high school which some very creative person had named Benson High School. Being in the hoity toity part of Omaha it attracted a great many rich kids.
My family and I were not rich, but middle class. My valet, for example,

Carlsbad Moves Forward With Lifeguard Program
Lifeguards will return to Carlsbad’s northern beach next summer under an expanded interim in-house program, while the city looks for bids from other agencies that might take over the fledgling marine safety service. The city launched its first pilot beach lifeguard program last year on
was not particularly well trained, not even knowing how to mix a decent martini (sniff). I only had one valet, most Benson High School students had at least two. Unlike many other of my fellow students, I did not have an entourage. Couldn't afford it, being of modest means.
I recall many a morning when my baby blue T-Bird would face the daunting challenge of climbing the steep hill on Maple Street from about 69th to 63rd, before finally reaching that lovely level stretch of land through downtown Benson. I have to compliment my chauffeur, Nicky, for the always comfortable, sometimes very scenic drives. I always enjoyed viewing the colorful Benson Baptist Church (where I was later to marry a Countess from Scotland, the lovely Mary (sorry, don't quite recall her last name. I'm bad on names). I also recall the excitement as I passed Kremer Funeral Home, the Benson Post Office, Steve's Grill, Feierman Jewelers, and the Benson Theater (where we used to always scrape together $0.09 cents for every Saturday morning and see both cartoons as well as exciting adventure movies, including my favorite hero, Lash Larue). Those were wonderful times.
Arriving at Benson High School, I was met every morning by a smiling John "Pinky" Aronson, the Vice Principal, who would open the door to my T-Bird, shake my hand, wave at Nicky, and welcome me to the school. I remember one day I suggested to my fellow classmates that we all honor "Pinky" Aronson by dressing in completely pink clothing. I wore pink trousers, pink socks, a pink shirt, white belt and white shoes. I was a sight to behold. The entire school turned out in pink that day.
nearly a mile of previously unprotected shoreline after large numbers of rescues and near-drownings in 2016 raised concerns. Some Carlsbad City Council members said at a meeting Tuesday that they would prefer for the city to jump right in and start its own permanent lifeguard program, but they agreed to consider offers from other agencies that might be able to do it better or at a lower cost. The council voted unanimously for the interim program that would allow the city to explore all its options.
Almost six of the city’s seven miles of beach are owned by the California Parks and Recreation Department, and those beaches are watched by state lifeguards.
Letters to the Editor Loved the story!
To Editor of The Paper.
However, the northern mile nearest the Oceanside border is considered private property.
As a Missouri transplant (the "Show Me State" and home to Harry S. Truman), I've now been a San Diego North County resident for some 10 years now.
The state parks department, the city of Encinitas, and the Orange County lifeguard department have all indicated they would be interested in providing lifeguard services to Carlsbad.
One 87-year-old woman looks forward to The Paper every Thursday,
Until last summer, the northern beach had never had lifeguards, though guards from the nearby state beach will respond in an emergency.
Mr. Aronson, I'm sure, was amused.
As we walked together up the sidewalk leading to the building I was often approached by other students who did not have transportation and had to walk to school. They would compliment me on my T-Bird and mention how it would be nice if, maybe sometime, I could give them a ride, seeing as how I was going in the same direction. I always made it a point to shake their hand or give them a friendly wave, show a warm smile and say, "what a perfectly grand idea. Do let me give it some thought and get back to you!" (I have always found it to be a good idea to treat those of a different social class kindly. Even though a majority of us were middle class, some of these forsaken kids didn't have so much as a valet to their name. I tried to brighten their lives by being kind to them and favoring them with, at the very least, my wonderfully contented smile).
I soon joined the rest of those from my social class and we would tell marvelously funny stories, describe our valet's hilarious shortcomings and/or great accomplishments. Being of modest means, my valet, Nicky, had to double as my chauffeur. Several times I thought of giving Nicky notice but she was such a strikingly lovely creature that I found it hard to part with her. Besides, she was often of great comfort to me in times of sorrow, like when our cook would forget both Brie and a sufficient amount of caviar in my box lunch she had prepared for me daily. Nicky (short for Nicole) would put her arms around me and murmur soft things in my ear. I always felt so much better; sometimes, to the point of skipping school for several hours to be with Nicky, the more to enjoy her comforting.
I not only take The Paper to disabled people and people in hospitals, but, I often read it to them. Stories that make us fall in love again with life and our imaginations are forever young again.

In late morning I would always head for gym class, presided over by Art Harris, our football coach. Mr. Harris was a strapping 3' tall but he was a human dynamo, often running around in circles, clapping his hands and yelling, "Let's go! Let's go!" to no one in particular. I was very fond of Mr. Harris, however. I suppose it might have been because I went to him one day, very sad, and told him my favorite pet rabbit, which I had called "Bunny" had passed away. I suggested to Mr. Harris that we might memorialize Bunny by naming the school, and in particular, its football team, the Benson High School Bunnies. Mr. Harris slapped his thighs, and exclaimed, "that's a wonderful idea! It shall be done!" And so, to this day, members who attended, and who still attend, my alma mater, are known as The Benson High School Bunnies.
All good things, however, must come to an end. After four years of absolute bliss, my high school days came to an end. I graduated (flipped my tassle, as we say) and went on to a brilliantly successful career in business and also became a highly successful and adored international spy. That, too, is all behind me now. Nicky is still with me. She stays in the spare bedroom here at the Madison Mansion, still chauffeurs me about town, still mixes me my martinis, still performs as a valet, and is always there to offer me comforting words, thoughts and deeds whenever mean ol' Evelyn says or does something to wound my sensitive ego.

would hope there is a program of our defense department to make sure they (UFOs) do not pose a threat.”
Neil de Grasse Tyson’s viewpoint pertained to a Pentagon’s UFO file (video) which was just released a few weeks ago by the U. S. Defense Department, in December of 2017. U. S. Navy pilot, Commander David Fravor, a veteran flier for 18 years, along with another pilot, Lt. Comdr. Jim Slaight, were sent to encounter a UFO off the coast of San Diego in November, 2004. An Operations officer onboard the San Diego-based, USS Princeton, a deadly Ticonderoga-class guided missile cruiser, hailed Fravor on his F/A-18 Super Hornet radio asking: “Are you carrying any weapons?” Both pilots answered in the negative – they were not carrying any weapons for possible hostile engagement. Fravor’s radio reply was: “Only two CATM9s.” (The CATM-9s that Fravor referred to are only dummy missiles which cannot be fired since the two pilots were only on a training exercise.) The question from the guidedmissile cruiser was followed by a directive for both pilots to approach the UFO. The cruiser’s orders were in Navy vernacular: “Well, we’ve got a real-world vector for you,” after which both pilots were instructed to make their approach to a “merge plot” -- the vicinity of the UFO. The USS Princeton had been secretly tracking various UFO activities off the San Diego coastline for two weeks. The San Diego warship is

ferociously armed and battle-tested with formidable naval guns, anti-air, anti-surface, and anti-submarine missiles along with surface-to-surface launch capability and a phalanx of other unknown, classified firepower. As such, the Princeton was concerned over any possible hostile aircraft activity, including the UFO, over its home-port of San Diego, which she is diligently trained to protect at all costs.
When both pilots returned to the aircraft carrier, USS Nimitz, he replied to his fellow pilots: “I have no idea what I saw. It had no plumes, wings or rotors and outran our F-18s.” That was back in 2004.
Since the declassified documents and UFO video were released by the U. S. Pentagon just last month, U. S. Navy Commander, David Fravor, has been more open on his mysterious UFO encounter off San Diego’s coastline. When Fravor was recently asked on network TV how fast he calculated the UFO’s airborne speed to have been, the veteran military flier answered: “Well, way beyond supersonic! Like a bullet out of a gun!” Under further questions from his TV interview Favor clarified: “No human physiology could’ve survived the ‘G-force’ of that speed.”
According to the Princeton’s secret surveillance, the UFOs popped onto their radar scans at 80,000 feet, then suddenly dive-bombed towards San Diego’s ocean waters, finally stopping and hovering above the water at approximately 20,000 feet. At all times, the UFOs were “locked-on” by the Princeton’s radar, a previous step to unleashing any lethal firepower.
By the time both Navy pilots merged close to the UFO, it was now hovering just 50-feet above the water, as if studying something below the ocean’s surface. With the ocean waters churning beneath the UFO object, Fravor got a clear view: “Getting a great, clear look at it, now. It’s about 40’ long.” Then Fravor’s voice crackled over the radio transmission: “Look at that thing! It’s rotating!”
Looking back on it, 13 years after the incident, Commander David Fravor is now more certain of what he saw that sunny San Diego day: “Something not from the Earth,” he said with conviction.
Though famed astrophysicist, Neil de Grasse Tyson, does not yet subscribe to inter-planetary visitors, his admonition bears repeating here: “It’s a flying object and we don’t know what it is. I would hope somebody’s checking it out. I would hope there is a program of our defense department to make sure they do not pose a
The UFO propulsion confused both pilots. As Fravor stated, it just didn’t seem possible, at least by any known earthly standards, for such an airborne craft to maneuver and hover the way it did. Fravor explained: “It’s not possible with technology today. It has no exhaust, vapor trail, or (discernable) internal propulsion.

1. If UFOs are unexplained natural phenomena, we must develop a better science to distinguish UFOs from the threat of incoming ICBMs. This is of the highest priority since it involves preserving world peace.
2. If UFOs prove to be of otherworldly origin and of intelligent design, then any such mechanics and knowledge would be applied for military use. As self-serving as this may sound, military strategist state the paramount importance for any nation to gain a superior military advantage whenever the opportunity presents itself. In today’s world, UFOs have emerged as a real, major, contemporary concern, causing added tension and suspicion between today’s already-hostile-and-suspicious nations.
Especially when UFOs are picked up on radar over “sensitive installations and nuclear bases.” Declassified documents show that UFOs have caused havoc and alarm for U.S.– Canada radar (NORAD) which is our early-warning radar screen that protects us from unprovoked airborne attack. Squadrons of UFOs have shown up as radar blips, and tracked at missile-speeds (exceeding) 18,000

mph. Our military defense network does not take kindly to such UFO intrusions over sensitive airspace! Especially if such incoming objects resemble ICBMs!
THE LAST RESORT. In a worstcase scenario, if global nuclear war is triggered by UFO confusion over our radar tracking from land, sea, and satellite, the president must be kept informed at all times, depending on the level of airborne alert. On more dire occasions, the president would be taken aside by the ‘carrier’ of the ‘nuclear football’ (described earlier in this article) and the briefcase opened. The president would then quickly review/evaluate the ‘attack option,’ which could range from a single surface-to-air anti-missile launch or multiple ICBM retaliatory launches -again, depending on the perceived incoming attack scenario. The U.S. has a ‘two-man rule’ in place, and while only the president can order the release of nuclear weapons, his order must be confirmed by the Secretary of Defense, or the hierarchy of succession, if the Secretary of Defense is killed. Before the order can be processed by the military, the president must be positively identified using a special code issued on a plastic card, nicknamed the “biscuit.” During their presidencies, both Jimmy Carter and Ronald Reagan preferred to carry the code card, or biscuit, in their pockets. Only briefly, in the past, were presidents Richard Nixon, Gerald Ford, Jimmy Carter, Ronald Reagan, George H. W. Bush, and more recently, Bill Clinton, separated from the ‘football,’ but such scenarios have since been rectified by newly-placed measures and safeguards. It should be noted that on more dire occasions, the ‘football’ has been ‘accessed’ due to UFO manifestations on NORAD (North American Aerospace Defense Command). NORAD conducts aerospace warning, aerospace control, and maritime warning in the defense of North America, guarding against any real, or suspected, airborne attack. UFOs have caused great concern to defense networks from the world’s superpower nations. In short, UFO sightings are a growing concern from the standpoint of national security.
For matters of clarification, initially, the term UFO was defined in its acronym as any ‘unidentified flying object,’ a definition which could apply to any airborne object that cannot be positively identified or explained. However, down through the years “UFO” has become collectively acceptable as “colloquially synonymous” with extraterrestrial (ET) spacecraft.
In one respect, the public-demand to have the U.S. Government divulge all revelations regarding any possible UFO technology or related research in Area 51, is an unrealistic request, in the name of national security. However, on the other hand, some measure of truth is, rationally, insisted upon, especially when dealing with public safety. For example, another near-air-collision occurred over the U.K. which, allegedly, involved a UFO. The encounter involved an A320 Airbus over British airspace en
route to Glasgow (Scotland) Airport, with a full load of passengers onboard. The near-collision occurred at an altitude of 4,000 feet when an object passed about 300 feet underneath it. The incident, which involved 150 passengers onboard, was officially recorded on the cockpit transcript: Airbus: “Glasgow approach.” Tower: “Pass your message.” Airbus: “Er, yeah . . . we just had something pass underneath us quite close and nothing on TCAS, have you got anything going on in your area?” Tower: “Uh, negative . . . we’ve got nothing on radar and we’re not talking to any traffic either.” Airbus: “Er . . . not quite sure what it was but it definitely, uh, was quite large and it’s blue and yellow.” Tower: “Ok, that’s understood, er do you have an estimate for the object’s altitude?” Airbus: “Maybe er, yeah we were probably about um, four hundred to five hundred feet above it, so its altitude was probably about threeand-a-half thousand feet.”
This close-encounter could have proved deadly for all onboard! The airbus took quick, evasive action with whatever they physically encountered in their airspace. The abrupt and sudden maneuver by the Airbus proved a most serious and frightening experience, especially its passengers! Search action was taken with no results and the A320 pilot stated his intention to file a report to Airprox, which investigates near-air-collisions, including UFOs. Interestingly, many passengers saw the object speed off, even though air traffic control reported no trace or presence of any large objects in the area at the time of the incident, which was classified as a “Close Encounter, Category One.” However, an interesting clue surfaced later during the ongoing investigation. Radar operators at Prestwick, about 30 miles southwest of Glasgow had picked up a UFO about 1.3 nautical miles east of the Airbus A320’s position, only 28 seconds earlier. Could it be that such aircraft, if extraterrestrial in origin, can use a radar stealthcloaking technology, as we currently employ in our stealth aircraft today, which are created from our own Area 51 located in the Nevada desert?
The right for the public to know something of these phenomena is, in such cases as cited above, certainly justified. In 2012, the head of the National Air Traffic Control Services disclosed that they detected, on average, one UFO every month. As such, Dr. David Clarke, a Sheffield Hallam academician, who is the UFO consultant for the National Archives, said, “The aviation authorities obviously think this is something they should continue to look into and if you are a regular air traveler, you are likely to agree.” Again, in this regard, air travelers certainly have the right to know more about UFOs since they can directly affect their public safety.
THE LEGACY OF UFOs. Sightings of UFOs that are thought to be of extraterrestrial origins have been reported by extremely reliable sources, such as by astronauts, U.S. Presidents, or foreign leaders. It is
RISING FROM THE ASHES
The Lilac fire burned 4,100 acres and destroyed 157 structures in the Bonsall and Fallbrook areas. Among these were 75 homes located in Rancho Monserate, a close-knit community that saw almost one-third of its homes destroyed.
As a result of the Lilac, Thomas and other recent fires, new legislation is being introduced in Sacramento to assist the rebuilding process. For my part, I have introduced legislation to assist homeowners in Rancho Monserate and similar common interest developments throughout the state when they seek to obtain loans for rebuilding. Additional bills under consideration would allow insured homeowners to combine coverage for unused structures to help cover costs of rebuilding an underinsured primary structure. Other bills would clarify the scope of coverage for additional living expenses (ALE), and extend the time to rebuild and collect full replacement costs from 24 to 36 months after a declared disaster. Legislation has also been proposed to require insurers to provide “Replacement Cost
Estimates” for new residential insurance policies and at each annual renewal, clarify the rights of insured homeowners regarding replacement costs, expand coverage for debris removal, and provide greater transparency for policy holders. These bills have just been introduced, and final bill language, committee assignments and hearing dates are still being developed.
In addition to state efforts, more federal help is also on the way. The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) has announced that residents impacted by the Lilac Fire may apply for disaster assistance. FEMA grants can include funds for home repair, rent and uninsured property loss. You can register online at DisasterAssistance.gov or by calling 1-800-621-3362.

a well-known fact that the term ‘foo fighter’ was in broad use by our Allied pilots during World War II. These strange UFOs were variously described in the skies in both the European and Pacific Theaters of Operations. ‘Foo fighter’ was the designated terminology by the U.S. 415th Night Fighter Squadron, as well as other segments of operation, to describe aerial phenomena from that period. Foo fighters began to be formerly reported by our Allied airplane pilots from about November 1944 onward. Interestingly, Allied and Axis forces suspected these Foo fighters to be secret weapons from the enemy. Conversely, the German and Japanese pilots thought these extraordinary Foo fighters to be of American or British origin. These aerial anomalies were never fully explained by our military intelligence and have, for the most part, been kept highly classified, to this day.
article reported “Foo fighters” that looked like “balls of fire” and followed USAAF night fighters for over a month! Scientists tried to explain them away as “illusions, probably caused by afterimages of dazzle from flak bursts.” Such rationalizations were not accepted by the general public, and especially not by experienced fighter pilots who were tooexperienced in dealing with such flimsy explanations.
On January 15, 1945, Time Magazine ran a “Foo Fighter” story which dazzled its readership. The
Can UFO’s Cause War? Cont. on Page 7
Foo fighters were first encountered by Allied Forces flying over Germany in 1944, whereby fighter pilots reported them as, “fast-moving round objects,” that appeared to be following and ‘toying’ with their aircraft. These same airmen, consistently, reported that these UFOs flew in formation and behaved, “As if under intelligent control, but they never displayed hostile behavior. However, they could not be outmaneuvered or shot down.” (Associated Press correspondent, Bob Wilson, December, 1944.)
The alleged retrieval of alien technology from the so-called flying saucer crash site near Roswell, New Mexico, is a very muddled and conflicting story. Nevertheless, the late Lt. Colonel Phillip J. Corso, U.S. Army, and President Eisenhower’s science advisor, and member of the National Security Council (in the 1950s), and who was assigned to Research and Development at the Pentagon, confirms in his memoirs that there was a UFO crash, near Roswell, New Mexico; that he was involved in “reverse engineering” whereby alien technology was “decoded” for U.S. industry, at large. According to Corso, “Artifacts harvested from the spacecraft led to today’s integrated circuit chips, fiber optics, lasers, and stealth technology.” (“The Day After Roswell,” Pocket Books, 1997, with William J. Birner.) Many other high-ranking people have broken their silence on the erstwhile taboo subject of UFOs and extraterrestrial life forms and spacecraft. In 1971, Apollo 14 Astronaut, Capt. Edgar D. Mitchell

Can UFO’s Cause War? Cont. from Page 6
said, “We all know that UFOs are real. All we need to ask is where do they come from?” In a letter to the United Nations, in 1978, Mercury 7 Astronaut, Col. Gordon Cooper wrote: “I believe that these extraterrestrial vehicles and their crews are visiting this planet from other planets and are obviously more advanced than we are . . .” In a memorandum written on July 10, 1947, and released under the Freedom of Information Act, FBI director, J. Edgar Hoover, expressed a complaint that the U.S. Army denied the FBI access to crashed UFOs. In part, he states: “We must insist upon full access to disks recovered. In the case of the Army, they grabbed it and would not let us have it for cursory examination.” Former USSR leader, Mikhail Gorbachev was quoted as saying, “The phenomenon of UFOs does exist, and it must be treated seriously.” (Soviet Youth Magazine, May 4, 1990.) President Richard Nixon was more blunt, “I’m not at liberty to discuss the government’s knowledge of extraterrestrial UFOs at this time. I am still, personally, being briefed on the subject.” It has been postulated, that if the United States government does, indeed, have physical information of UFO vehicles and their occupants, this information would exist at the very highest possible level of security, even more so than our nuclear or atomic weaponry. On November 20, 2003, between 9:00 and 9:20 a.m., radar from the FAA and NORAD detected unknown radar targets referred to as UFOs within restricted airspace above the White House and President George W. Bush and First Family were ordered to evacuate to an underground bunker below the White House. NORAD scrambled two U. S. fighter aircraft to engage but the UFOs had “shot-off.” Fox News, Reuters, and CNN covered the story.
And so it remains, a most delicate and terrible threat which UFOs present to our very existence, all muddled and mysteriously cloaked beneath the veil of secrecy. Nonetheless, several prominent leaders such as Ronald Reagan and Jimmy Carter have gone on record as having experienced UFOs. However, others have remained tight-lipped. When George W. Bush was asked on an episode of TV’s “Jimmy Kimmel Live” show if he had ever seen a UFO, Bush’s reply was short and curt: “I’m not telling you anything!”
PROBLEMS OF A DIFFERENT SORT. In the final analysis, if UFOs are just that, unexplained but natural phenomena, then we must quickly find a resolution to distinguish them from enemy blips on our radar. If, on the other hand, UFOs prove to be space craft from another planet, then perhaps we should pay heed to scientist Stephen Hawking who warns us all: “Intelligent space aliens could destroy humanity.” The famous British scientist expresses his fears that such a race of super-advanced space aliens might just wipe out the human race in the same manner a human might think nothing of wiping out a colony of ants. Hawking cites human history as a lesson: “If you look at history, contact between
humans and less intelligent organisms have often been disastrous from their point of view. Encounters between civilizations with advanced versus primitive technologies have gone badly for the less advanced. A civilization reading one of our messages (sent out into space) could be billions of years ahead of us. If so, they will be vastly more powerful, and may not see us as any more valuable than we see bacteria.” On that cheery note, I’ll simply let our readership decide for themselves. But, as one BBC interviewer said of Stephen Hawking’s scary remarks: “Now that’s a bedtime story for the kids!”
Historically Speaking by Tom Morrow
First contract for Whitney as a firearms manufacturer for the U.S. government was in 1798. Whitney has often been incorrectly credited with inventing the idea of interchangeable parts, however, the idea predated Whitney, and his role in it was one of promotion and popularizing, not invention. Successful implementation of the idea eluded Whitney until near the end of his life. The Inventor Who Enhanced America’s Industrial Revolution
Eli Whitney was one of America’s most important inventors -= and he did considerably more than invent the cotton gin.
Frederick Gomez - his 92nd story for The Paper!
Whitney was born Dec. 8, 1765, in Westborough, Mass., and was bestknown for inventing the cotton gin, which strengthen the South cotton industry, but it enhanced slavery. This was one of the key inventions of the Industrial Revolution and shaped the economy of the South. But, Whitney was far more valuable to America as a gun developer and manufacturer.

infringement lawsuits consumed the profits and his cotton gin company went out of business.
During the Revolutionary War, Whitney operated a profitable nail manufacturing operation in his father's workshop. He was just 14. Whitney turned his attention to making muskets for the newly formed U.S. Army. He continued making arms and inventing other tools until his death in 1825.
Whitney solved another big problem. In order to have a firearm, one had to assemble three separate parts: barrels, locks, and stocks. Whitney made the three components interchangeable. Along the way, an old familiar saying, “…it’s all there – lock, stock and barrel was created. But, Whitney didn’t invent the idea, which went back as far as the Punic war. In the closing years of the 18th century, Whitney visited Georgia where it was a magnet for New Englanders seeking fortunes. There he developed the idea for the cotton gin. Because of the social and economic impact for the South, his cotton gin invention enhanced slavery, The word “gin” is short for “engine.” The cotton gin was a wooden drum stuck with hooks that pulled the cotton fibers through a mesh. The cotton seeds would not fit through the mesh and fell outside. Whitney got the idea by observing a cat attempting to pull a chicken through a fence, but could only pull through some of the feathers.
Whitney could not build enough gins to meet demand, so gins from other makers found ready sale. Ultimately, patent
Congress voted for legislation that would use $800,000 in order to pay for small arms and cannons in case war with France erupted. They offered a $5,000 incentive with an additional $5,000 once that money was exhausted for the person that was able to accurately produce arms for the government. Because the cotton gin had not brought Whitney the rewards he believed he would get, he accepted the contract. Although the contract was for one year, Whitney did not deliver the arms until eight years later in 1809 using multiple excuses for the delay. Recently, historians have found that during 1801--1806, Whitney took the money and headed into South Carolina in order to further profit from the cotton gin.
When the government complained that Whitney's price per musket compared unfavorably with those produced in government armories, Whitney was able to calculate an actual price per musket by including fixed costs such as labor, insurance and machinery, which the government had not taken into account. He thus made early contributions to both the concept of cost accounting, and the concept of the efficiency of private industry.
Whitney invented important tools such as the first milling machine in 1818. But research by historians have determined no one person can properly be described as the “inventor” of the milling machine. Whitney died of prostate cancer on Jan. 8, 1825, in New Haven, just a month after his 59th birthday. He left a widow and four children. During the course of his illness, he invented and constructed several devices to mechanically ease his pain. These devices, drawings of which are in his collected papers, were effective but were never manufactured for use of others due to his heirs' reluctance to profit on "indelicate" items. The Eli Whitney Students Program and the Yale University's admissions program for non-traditional students, is named after Whitney.

Oceanside’s Tri-City Inline Hockey League Celebrates 25th Birthday - TriCity Inline Hockey League (TCIHL), an Oceanside based non-profit organization, celebrates its 25th anniversary. It has been popularizing the sport of roller hockey in Oceanside-Carlsbad-Vista and surrounding area since 1993. To commemorate the special occasion and further promote the development of youth inline roller hockey in North County San Diego, they will hold Roller Hockey Clinics, a series of free events for children and youth players ages 5 through 17, at 9am to 1pm on Saturdays, February 3, 10, and 17, at the roller hockey rink at the Martin Luther King Jr. Park at 4300 Mesa Drive in Oceanside. The program consists of free skating lessons, fun games, drills, and scrimmage. Beginners and experienced players are welcome. Rink activities will take place from 9am to 10:30am for mites and squirts, and from 10:30am to 12pm for peewees and bantams. First time skaters will also be able to borrow used protective gear and equipment at the site for use on a first-come-first-served basis including inline roller skates and hockey sticks. (February 17th clinic will also have an optional group outing in the evening to see a game of San Diego Gulls vs. Ontario Reigns with an opportunity to “high-five” the Gulls team. Last time, when TCIHL celebrated a special occasion, it brought over 130 of its league members to the Gulls.) The three clinics will coincide with optional inperson registration for TCIHL’s Spring2018 Season. With registration now open, families may sign up their child to play in a division of mites (8 & under), squirts (10 & under), peewees (12 & under), or bantams (17 & under). Assessments are February 20th and 22nd. Practices – held either Tuesdays or Thursdays - begin the week of February 27. Games begin March 2nd and 3rd (on

Thor is pet of the week at your Rancho Coastal Humane Society. He’s a 2 year old, 12 pound, Domestic Short Hair cat with a red Tabby coat.
If you were going to draw him in a comic, he would look like a smaller version of Garfield. Thor is very friendly and he loves to explore. He might like living with some older kids. Thor was transferred through the FOCAS program. The $100 adoption fee for Thor includes medical exam, vaccinations, neuter, and microchip.

Dakota would love a mellow home where she can spend her golden years relaxing in her bed and being adored by her new family.
Her adoption fee includes her spay, permanent microchip identification, current vaccinations, 30 days worry free insurance from Trupanion Insurance and a certificate for a free veterinary exam! Dakota is available for adoption at San Diego Humane Society’s Escondido Campus at 3450 E Valley Parkway.

Pastor Tom Fry (Retired) Church of the Nazarene
Every January there is a subtle change in the parking lots around North County. It’s almost impossible to find a parking space around a gym or fitness center, but there is lots of space around pizza parlors, donut shops and fast food joints.
The cause is directly attributed to the two most common New Year’s Resolutions: exercise more and eat less. By now, those changes are beginning to right themselves and any day now the pattern will self adjust to what it was before the new year.
We make New Year’s Resolutions because we want to look better and live longer. We want to be better. We want to be different. We want something NEW. The New Year is an unspoiled
Then He told them, “I am about to do a new thing” Isaiah 43:19 (NRSV). God has something new in mind for you. Isaiah goes on in that verse, “I will make a way in the wilderness and rivers in the desert.” God has something more for you in 2018 than fewer donuts and more sit ups. He says He will do things you can hardly imagine.
The way things have been is not the way things will always be. The things you thought would never happen are about to happen. Like roads in the wilderness and rivers in the desert, God will give us hope and joy and strength in ways we cannot even imagine. On that same drive around town, I noticed that there is plenty of room in all the church parking lots.
Be different. Be better. Be adventurous. Let God do something new in your life.

A Texan was taking a taxi tour of London and was in a hurry. As they went by the Tower of London the cabby explained what it was and that construction started in 1346 and it was completed in 1412.
The Texan replied, "Shoot, a little ol' tower like that? In Houston we'd have that thing up in two weeks!"
The cab passed the House of Parliament next, the cabby stating that it started construction in 1544 and was completed 1618. "Boy, we put up a bigger one than that in Dallas and it only took a year!"
As they passed Westminster Abbey the cabby was silent.
"Whoa! What's that over there?" asked the Texan.
"Darned if I know, wasn't there yesterday..."

Woman1: Are you serious? I think your face is adorable. And you could easily get one of those layer cuts - that would look so cute I think. I was actually going to do that except that I was afraid it would accent my long neck. Woman2: Oh - that's funny! I would love to have your neck!

Meet The Parents
A girl asks her boyfriend to come over Friday night to meet, and have dinner with her parents. Since this is such a big event, the girl announces to her boyfriend that after dinner, she would like to go out and make love for the first time. The boy is ecstatic, but he has never had sex before, so he takes a trip to the pharmacist to get some condoms.

Oceanside • Deputy Mayor Chuck Lowery CELEBRATION OF BLACK HISTORY MONTH/HISTORY OF BLACK MUSIC
The Oceanside Public Library and North County African American Women’s Association invite the public to a special free performance entitled “History of Black Music: From Negro Spirituals to Porgy and Bess,” on Saturday, February 3, at 7:00 p.m., at the Sunshine Brooks Theatre, 217 North Coast Highway in downtown Oceanside. A unique and unforgettable journey through history, the program features awardwinning soprano Yolanda Mitchell West and baritone Michael Paul Smith, one of Southern California’s premier soloists, who has per-
He tells the pharmacist it's his first time and the pharmacist helps the boy for about an hour. He tells the boy everything there is to know about condoms and sex.
At the register, the pharmacist asks the boy how many condoms he'd like to buy, a 3-pack, 10-pack, or family pack. The boy insists on the family pack because he thinks he will be rather busy, it being his first time and all. That night, the boy shows up at the girl's parents house and his girlfriend meets him at the door. "Oh, I'm so excited for you to meet my parents, come on in!" she says.
The boy goes inside and is taken to the dinner table where the girl's parents are already seated. The boy quickly offers to say grace and bows his head. A minute passes, and the boy is still deep in prayer, with his head down. 10 minutes pass, and still no movement from the boy. Finally, after 20 minutes with his head down, the girlfriend leans over and whispers to the boyfriend, "I had no

The boy turns, and whispers back, "I had no idea your father was a Pharmacist." Grandfathers can be wrong even when they are right!
A lesson for all you granddads. We can get into trouble even when we try to do right.
Five year old Hunter was staying with his grandfather for a few days. He'd been playing outside with the other kids, when he came into the house and asked, 'Grandpa, what's that called when two people sleep in the same bedroom and one is on top of the other?' Grandpa's daughter-in-law had always insisted that her children always must be told the truth and never the wild tales that grandpa liked to tell.
Grandpa was a little taken aback as to why any 5 year old would even ask such a question. Perhaps it would be

“Smart” home and “nasty” crooks
We decided to pass up the CES show in Las Vegas this year. Several events conspired to help us make this decision not the least of which was the Flu epidemic sweeping the country. It was the first time in the past seven years that we have missed CES. Although we didn’t attend the show, as members of the press we do get all of the product bulletins and press releases associated with the CES. In the last few weeks before the show we get twenty to fifty press releases each day. That gives us plenty of exposure to what is happening in consumer electronics.

best after all to abide by Hunter's mother's wishes and just tell him what it is really called and let his mother explain about the bird and bees.
This year we are particularly interested in “smart home” products. Computer/Internet linked home and small business systems like security alarms, cameras and access and temperature controls once cost thousands of dollars and required licensed contractors to install and monitor. Today these products are available to home and small business owners as retail kits at a fraction of the old costs. Assisting small business and home customers with set up and maintenance of “Smart” systems is a natural extension of our on-site services. By law, in California, on-site jobs with installation and material costs over $600 require a licensed contractor, that means big bucks. We anticipate being able to keep costs well below “contractor” levels. Most set-up and installations should require less than $200 in labor. So if you are thinking about the new “smart” features for your home, ranch or business, let’s talk about it. We may be able to save you a pile of money. We continue to see “Phishing” attacks from criminals claiming to represent government agencies and reputable corporations. I myself got three robot-calls last week claiming that IRS officials were on the way to arrest me for tax fraud. They told me my only chance to avoid prison was to “call this number.” I didn’t call and I’m still free. When you get a “call this number,” whether by phone or on screen, don’t do it. If you really enjoy talking to criminals you can call them just for fun and simply calling them won’t endanger you but understand that you are talking to criminals. Have fun if you will, but never give them any information and never ever let them

Just this week SBC Global customer service gave one of our customers a telephone number to call for help with her computer. It was a fraud and her PC is in now in our shop for repair. AT&T and other reputable companies employ with third party contractors in “low rent countries” like India and The Philippines to handle their service calls. These contractors may collaborate with criminals by referring unsuspecting customers to fraudulent sites. Be wary of third party referrals. You should assume that anyone who requests access to your PC is a criminal. When you let them in, the first thing they do is open a back door to your PC. They then may try

to con you into paying for “clean up” or other services but it really doesn’t matter what you do, they now own your PC. They are now able to sell access to your PC to the highest bidder. If you have let anyone access your PC, you need to take corrective action. Waiting and hoping for the best is a bad option. Even when you don’t detect their presence, they may be mining information and feeding it to criminal network servers. The only way to be free of them is to reinstall your PC’s operating system. If we do that here at the Computer factory it will cost you $105. If we also need to save and reinstall your user files the total will be $150. This is chump change compared to the risk of leaving you PC exposed.

Community Classroom Committee. This committee was established at the national level to encourage participation in local school classrooms. In attendance was Colleen Mitchell, a 5th grade teacher at Camp Pendleton’s North Terrace School, who spoke about the need for assistance in the classroom. Regent Woodward volunteers in her classroom on a weekly basis, assisting the students with their reading. The chapter has adopted Mitchell’s class and donates needed supplies such as art material and books to help supplement items low in the education budget of the school. Education of our young people is paramount for the DAR and this is just one of many ways that the chapter fulfills this quest. The DAR is open to any female eighteen years or older who is lineally descended from a patriot who assisted in some way in America’s fight for independence in the American Revolution.

A Specific Plan (SP 16-002) and Site Development Plan (SDP 17006) would be required to establish the development design standards; a Tentative Subdivision Map (TSM 16-003) would be required to establish up to 220 residential condominium lots; and a Grading Variance (GV 17-004) would be required to allow slopes to exceed 20 feet in height.

The extension of Discovery Street was previously approved for development (with a certified Environmental Impact Report (EIR)) under the University District Specific Plan Area, as a part of the Discovery Village North Project (immediately north of the proposed project site). The proposed homes would not be completed until a large portion of the Discovery Street extension is completed. Other uses proposed within the project site include natural open space, recreational space, community amenity space, and associated circulation, which would be dispersed throughout the community. A homeowners’ association (HOA) would maintain these common recreational areas, and proposed private streets.
