This book tries to answer two questions: 1) Why has the U.S. Government suddenly done an about-face in 2021, from debunking UFOs to officially admitting that they are "real"? 2) Since UFOs appear on radar, leave physical traces, and produce a wide spectrum of psychic and paranormal phenomena, exactly what are they? The answer to the first question is: "Because 'disclosure' is part of a long-term social engineering project beginning at least as early as the end of WWII." The answer to the second is: "They are psycho-physical entities such as have been reported throughout human history, called the Jinn by the Muslims and Fairies by the Northern Europeans. The social engineers have opted to use this well-known phenomenon-whether or not they fully understand it-to shift the paradigm in the Western world from Democracy and Christianity to Technocracy and Transhumanism. Extensive evidence is given for both these theories, drawing upon history, individual and social psychology, traditional metaphysics and eschatology, the physical sciences, and the phenomenology of the paranormal, thus producing the most global and consistent explanation to date-if not the most easily accepted one-of the UFO phenomenon. Charles Upton, poet and metaphysician, was born on December 13, 1948, in San Francisco, CA. He is a protege of the Beat Generation, a veteran of the psychedelic counterculture, a peace activist, a Sufi Muslim, a writer of the Traditionalist/Perennialist School, and author of 20 books, mostly on "metaphysics and social criticism." In 2013, along with Dr. John Andrew Morrow, he co-founded the international Muslim/Interfaith peace movement known as the Covenants Initiative, and is presently Executive Director of the Covenants of the Prophet Foundation. He has been writing on the subject of UFOs since 2001.
The Accidental American is a look at the underside of 17th century America, the adventure tale of a British lad who is rescued at sea by Captain Kidd, jumps ship in Charleston and makes his precarious way to New York, where he is reclaimed by Captain Kidd; falls in love with Kidd's young wife, Sarah, who instructs him in the myriad ways of love, short of sinful fornication. When Kidd goes back to privateering he, knowing of his young wife's feeling for Christopher, insists that he come along. As history tells us, the expedition ends badly for Kidd, but not for Christopher, who is freed from prison by his father and introduced to the son he did not know he had. Returning to New York with his son, he marries Sarah and they retire to a peaceful life in New Jersey.

When my previous pup passed away after eighteen years, children in the neighborhood would ask, "Where is Raggsie?" I thought writing Raggsie Goes to Heaven would not only answer that question but also ease the hearts of anyone who has ever had to say goodbye to a pet.

The demons never tire. They cling to John Callahan and, like the banshees of Irish legend, they fill his heart with wails of despair.

Today, our very survival depends on our ability to stay awake, to adjust to new ideas, to remain vigilant, and to face the challenge of change. -Martin Luther King, Jr. How do we turn our good intentions and high hopes toward DEI into real and lasting change? Many of today's organizations lack mature and effective DEI efforts. In recent studies, several were found to be only "going through the motions" with much being promised but little delivered. Despite these dismal reports and external resistance, backlash, and polarization that sometimes exist toward DEI work, we've made some progress. We're doing better at teaching what DEI is and why this work matters. Where we've fallen short is the how. At its core, diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) work is about change management-changing individual behaviors and systems. Yet, most major change efforts fail. So, what do the few that do succeed have that we can learn from? Using her DEI Propel(TM) Framework, an evidence-based change management process, Sandra Upton uncovers the secrets to successfully implementing DEI initiatives and creating a lasting diverse and inclusive workplace culture where everyone thrives, regardless of their background. This step-by-step process includes a DEI roadmap, practical strategies, and effective tools that push your diversity, equity, and inclusion effort beyond lip service into an operational part of your organization's DNA. Whether you are a chief diversity officer, a member of a DEI council, the leader of an employee resource group, a human resource professional, a middle manager, or a department head, but lack the support, skills, cultural intelligence, or confidence to help lead and implement the real work, the map has been drawn. With Make It Last, you can turn feelings of failure and frustration when it comes to DEI into realities of success.
