Women of Science
By no means comprehensive, this list is just a few of the names to know in the large (and largely obscure) world of women science fiction writers. Spanning generations, histories, and styles, these women have made essential contributions to the genre in a wide variety of ways. Unfortunately less recognized than their male counterparts, the writers listed here along with many others have made their names impossible to ignore for all posterity.

Life and Production: S1 E8: The Highest in Their Actions
Deserved Its Title A pinball machine illuminated and boomed noises in an apartment. A player standing about four feet nine inches struggled to see the action of the steel ball. She was good. Her wrists responded with the constant rotation of the silver sphere(s). With every slice of the finger into the button of the game, she garnered point after point. As her score reached into the thousands then the millions and then as the score approached a billion points, the electricity failed.

Extra Terrestrial War Never Ends
War is without a doubt one of the most misunderstood concepts on Earth. The possibility exists that ESH placed war on the planet as a tool in order to construct their ETA using EPMS. What the EA don't understand is the possibility exists if they would use EARTH methodology and wormation they could realize what is happening to them. They also have the Two Way Mirror Theory and Estimation Theory to help make things more visible. This would answer why they keep constantly fighting what appears to them as wars in a repetitious pattern yet without really ever preventing them from occurring again.Starting with the word War:WARW = 23 (alphanumeric)2 cubed, or 2 to the 3rd power = 88 = EighT = ET (bracketing)A = 1 (alphanumeric)R = 18 (alphanumeric)1 + 18 = 19 = S (alphanumeric)S = YES (ecronym)WAR = ET YESSo you can see in the translation of the word itself war says ET YES as in the possibility exists the concept of war is an Extra Terrestrial concept, not an EA concept. This would begin to explain why the EA can't figure out how it works and why they can't stop having them.The first thing to understand about war is the possibility you can not have a war with your own system. This concept is totally foreign to EA as it should be since the ESH don't want them to understand this so that they will keep having wars thus performing EPMS.When you understand the planet Earth is a system and all the EA are part of that system you realize the possibility that EA cannot have wars with each other. That does not mean they won't fight with each other it just means that it is not actually a war and thus not called a war. Then when you break down the terminology surrounding the events you can see the possibility of the presence of HET and ETI on Earth.If you classify the events as Battles you get:BATTLEB = 2 (alphanumeric)A = 1 (alphanumeric)BA = 21 (alphanumeric)T = + (symbolism)+ = + 1 (increment)BA++ = 21 +1 +1 = 2323 = W (alphanumeric)W = ET (see above from war)LE = FABLE (porpheme)BATTLE = ET FABLESo Battle says the possibility the EvenT was an ET Fable. In other words, while the EA thought they were fighting a battle since they realized they can't fight wars against each other what they were really doing was following an overarching script that controls the events on the planet thus the reasoning behind their battle wasn't even correct either, similar to how the reasoning behind their war wasn't correct.Understanding the possibility of the concept that war cannot be fought among parties of the same system leads to the consideration what then are the parties doing when they are in this form of disagreement. The term Mutiny which on Earth is thought to be first and foremost a Naval concept but also has consideration as a military concept is what is actually happening. MUTINYMUTE INFORMATION YESThe reason the parties are in disagreement is that the possibility exists the organizational hierarchy is fraudulent in nature as in what appear to be democracies and militaries are really hextocracies and hextaries. Add to that the incorrect or false information being disseminated to the less privileged and the apparent need for confrontation constantly arises. This usually occurs in the form of EPMS and misdirection.The best example is the possibility exists if you explained to the EA that ESH exist and they control Earth and the EA are constructing an ETA due to deception through EPMS suddenly the need to fight, battle, mutiny, or conduct war against each other would appear foolish.FIGHTFORCE EIGHT (porpheme)EighT = ET (bracketing)So Fight says ET Force. In other words, the possibility exists the reasons we are fighting are brought about by ET forces tricking us into fighting such as with EPMS.FOOLFOREIGN TOOL (porpheme)So the possibility exists a fool in this context is a person who is a Foreign (ET) tool being used to accomplish their ETA goals usually via EPMS and war.FOUGHTFOOLISH THOUGHTSo the possibility exists fought says the reason they were fighting was that they didn't understand the ET reasoning (thought) behind their actions thus the EPMS and wars.So why then does the possibility exist that Extra Terrestrial War Never Ends? The key is that ESH are using war to construct their ETA using ETI and EPMS until partial disclosure. After partial disclosure, they will continue to use war as a tool but just like the EA didn't understand how it was being used prior to disclosure they won't understand how it is being used at a higher level intellectual methodology after disclosure.For example, they may place the EA in a new system and declare that system needs to go to war to defend itself. Same concept just different terminology for the forces fighting against each other.This is similar to the possibility of the concept of Slavery (EMSR). Just like how the EA think they will be freed when partial disclosure happens they will suffer the same syndrome as war. They didn't realize they were slaves before disclosure and they won't understand how they are being used as slaves after disclosure at a higher level intellectual level.

Review of 'Counterpart 1.4'
A really superb episode 1.4 of Counterpart last night—my favorite so far—in which the two Howards switch sides. Again, the acting of J. K. Simmons is Emmy-worthy. Here the kind Howard from our world has to play the tough Howard from the other side, and vice versa, and both do it just right. This series is a pleasure to see just because of Simmons' acting.

Consciousness or Ignorance
Today, it seems life as a human can be very...dramatic, to say the least. Everyone is caught up in the next new thing, the newest drama between one celebrity to another, or even what the president said about a whole ethnic group of people. Drama, as it stands, is definitely not lacking in our current "social" media reigned society; the feeling of dread and depression around every corner of this beloved country, soaked up a by a mask we each put on. For many of us, it's and ongoing battle to stay sane in a world that has gone crazy. If you're reading this, I'm sure you feel the same. Inching closer to the day where our mistakes as a race of humans, and our ignorance of this planet will eventually tear us apart to a point of retribution, spitting us off the planet like a virus. To me, we have a short time to make a very important choice; life or death, love or hate, consciousness of the choices we make, or ignorance to the fact of us tearing the planet down.

Review: 'Silver Screen Saucers'. Top Story - February 2018.
2017 marked seventy years of the modern UFO phenomenon began with the sighting of pilot Kenneth Arnold and the still controversial events at Roswell, New Mexico. For much of time (indeed beginning within just a few years), Hollywood has made use of it to tell everything from 1950s B-movies to some of the biggest hits of all time. Taking in the width and breadth of these “silver screen saucers” is writer Robbie Graham whose 2015 book of the same name explores this sometimes murky mix of fact and fiction.

Life and Production: S1 E7: Forte
Dizzying On the electronic wall-sized smart board, a dizzying array of numbers and symbols filled up the space. Each character meant something and therefore allowed the onlooker the chance to understand what had been wrought. Dr. Saffron Lesane steadied her hand to compose the final few strokes. Finished, she stepped back to inspect her work. Saffron gazed over the board and talked to the internal computer.

Dancing with the Fireflies
Once a creature of the mortal world dies, there is a small period of time where the spirit hovers between the living world and the next. If left undisturbed, the spirit usually finds its way, and will fade. Humans have a harder time letting go… filled as they are with regret, hatred, and greed. Their weakness becomes their misery, causing their souls to distort; becoming tainted. They will always be the most foolish creatures.
