  • Belief in the Paranormal Or Pseudoscience,” Melissa Pollak Outlines Public Attitudes Toward Belief in the Paranormal, and the Role the Media Play in That Belief
    Chapter 2 The Media and Public Gullibility One of the most striking differences between a cat and a lie is that a cat has only nine lives. —Mark Twain He who joyfully marches in rank and file has already earned my contempt. He has been given a large brain by mistake, since for him the spinal cord would suffice. —Albert Einstein The evidence of opinion polls varies a little in numbers, but overall it would seem that most Americans believe in some sort of paranormal phenomena. According to one Gallup poll, nearly a third of Americans think that aliens probably have visited our planet, even though there isn’t a shred of evidence to support that belief, and many people think aliens have not only visited earth but have abducted people while they were here. Harvard psychiatrist (and alien enthusiast) John Mack published a study that suggests about 4 million people in the United States have been abducted by aliens. There are a few therapists who actually specialize in treating alien abduction victims, which in itself is reasonable, but when the therapists write books “documenting” the experiences of “actual” kidnap victims, a line of some sort has been crossed. (See Secret Life: Documented First-Hand Accounts of Alien Abduction, by David M. Jacobs.) If aliens don’t interest you, maybe a message from a dead relative would. Psychics bank on our grief and desire to hold on to our dead. In the past, they have waited in shaded rooms and offices for clientele to show up for word from beyond.

  • Newsletter Articles
    The Retriever Official Newsletter of the Labrador Education and Rescue Network Volume 3, Number 4, November 2002 L.E.A.R.N.’s mission is to assist in the rescue of unwanted Labrador Retrievers by placing them in homes through fostering, adoption and referral. In addition, we strive to provide public education regarding Labrador Retrievers and to promote responsible ownership and the humane treatment of all dogs. Hannah’s Story In the summer of 2000, Hannah’s owners vacated their apartment and left her behind, all alone. Hannah, not quite a year old, came to L.E.A.R.N., thrived for 6 weeks at her foster home, enjoyed her canine foster siblings, and was a classic lab sweetie. She then was adopted by what seemed to be a perfect home. This September Hannah’s home contacted L.E.A.R.N. to say that she had become dangerously fear aggressive, some people were afraid to enter their home, and L.E.A.R.N. needed to take her back and put her to sleep. What had caused this alleged Jeckyl to Hyde transformation? Suspecting that L.E.A.R.N. had not heard Hannah’s real story, we decided to give her a chance. The first step was to take Hannah to the vet to see if there was some health explanation for the described behaviors. The visit to the vet was a disaster because Hannah was uncontrollably terrified. Shocked after the vet experience and suspecting that there may be more than health issues at stake, L.E.A.R.N.

  • 101: Thick and Thin Two High-School
    101: Thick And Thin Two high-school “frenemies” find their rivalry resparked (much to their husbands’ annoyance) when, twenty years later, one opens a gym and another opens a patisserie in the lobby of the same apartment complex. 100: Premiere An hour long comedy-drama about the ins and outs of producing a nation-wide monthly film magazine, as the subeditors and copywriters struggle to not lose their love of film and critical insight as they drown in glad-handing and puffery. 99: Bunk A Harry Houdini-analogue and a Catholic priest travel across America at the turn of the century, debunking supernatural menaces and exposing the evil schemes behind them, over constant and lively arguments on the nature of faith and skepticism. 98: The View From Here To learn more about humanity and its struggles from a personal point of view, God sends an angel and demon to live in a working class tenement in Detroit. 97:Near Liberty An historical drama set on the processing centre on Ellis Island after World War 1, following the doctors, nurses, administrators and staff as they process the millions of new Americans who arrived from Europe, seeking a new beginning under the light of Lady Liberty. 96: Logan This “Australian Deadwood” tells the story of Patrick “Bloody” Logan and his three-year reign of terror and brutality over the Moreton Bay Penal Colony in the 1820s. 95: The Polar Bear Club Legendary aging TV stars regather to make a sitcom about an elderly couple who (between discussions of their now tricky sex life) run a “polar bear” club (ie swimming naked in sub-zero waters) for tourists in upstate Vermont, and their wacky co-workers and customers.

Briefly describe the rationale for assignment to foundation area(s) and subgroup(s) chosen. Literary and Cultural Analysis: The class explores alien contact and abduction narratives, particularly between 1942 and 1998, to ask how the claims of abduction are routed in larger national conversations about the cold war, government conspiracy, and space exploration. Students will also be introduced to the writing of psychics and mediums in order to outline an approach to understanding the utility of the scientific method. Students will also be required to engage with the literature of skeptics, helping develop the concepts of “suspensions of disbelief” and “concomitant and opposing hypotheses.” Social Analysis: The course will compare the narratives of alien abductees, ghost witnesses, and self-professed mediums to the social science research of psychopompic and psychogenic hallucinations in the psychological sciences to develop a theory of how humans respond to fear.

  • Animal Communication by Anne Livingston (As Featured in Dogs, Dogs, Dogs)
    1 Animal Communication by Anne Livingston (as featured in Dogs, Dogs, Dogs) "There are more things in heaven and earth, Cuddles, than are dreamt of in your philosophy." (with apologies to William Shakespeare) Surely all animal lovers yearn for Dr. Doolittle-ism. We want to talk to the animals, learn their language, know what they have to say to us and how we can help them. And people in general seem to yearn for something spiritual that the rat race just doesn’t provide. Maybe a touch of magic, too, is missing from our lives. Animal communicators are people who claim to be able to psychically talk to your animal and get answers back. These people don’t even need to be in the same room as Max or Mittens - a phone and a photograph make superior substitutes for proximity. You can read all about it. You can take courses, too. Animal communication titles abound at bookstores and local libraries, and seminars are available through the Learning Annex and beyond. There is even a television series on the Animal Planet network. A galley proof of a book entitled "Is Your Pet Psychic?" came my way recently. The author, Richard Webster, assures us they are. In fact, we all are, but this innate ability was suppressed within most of us at childhood. He tells us that some of our invisible friends were real, too The book, by Llewellyn Publications www.llewellyn.com is full of anecdotes of the psychic abilities of the author’s childhood retriever, "Bruce", and other animals in other times and places.
