Late night mews, Summer-precious Pussycats... the Kougaress is really grateful for these cooler summer days, especially the lovely dry air... rain is probably needed again, but you can't tell it by the verdant lush yard that this Big Cat has to try to tame in spots... oh, and her trek down to the mailbox, she saw her golden eagle again... and there are these beautiful little deep lavender-colored flowers... they're trumpet-shaped, and are abundant this year.

So, darling kittens, it's getting dicey out there with the whole Ebola thing. If you're in a major city take particular care. Given the nature of this virus, you definitely want a quick exit strategy... before all escape routes are shut down. And always remember, this Big Cat loves ya!

Not My Fault. This Time...

The tick-tock of the grandfather clock echoed through the office, underscoring just how quiet it was. Marissa fought the urge to squirm under Gil's penetrating gaze. For a herbie, he was remarkably good at delivering a preditor's stare. She managed not to fidget but she couldn't stop herself from mentally reviewing everything she'd said or done, every spell she'd cast and every curse she'd muttered and every order she'd filled, over the last month. She was sure she had done nothing to earn being called on the carpet. This time.

BLESSED BE THE TREES

The Health Benefits of Trees
Submitted by Alice on July 30, 2014
They prevent $7 billion in health costs every year by filtering air pollution—not to mention their psychological effects. New research says the closer you can live to trees, the better off you are.
John “Johnny Appleseed” Chapman stomped through the Midwestern winter snow with bare feet. His cloak was a lightly modified coffee sack with holes for his head and arms that—all of this according to a posthumous 1871 profile in Harper’s—he deemed “as good clothing as any man need wear.” He ate from buckets of pig slop, and when people welcomed Appleseed into their log homes, he would lie on the floor and deliver “news right fresh from heaven.” He claimed to have frequent conversations with angels, two of whom promised to marry him upon his death if he agreed to abstain from marriage during his Earthly existence, which he did manage.
But Appleseed was also wholly obsessed with planting trees for the benefit of future generations, so his legacy as an American folk hero is due.
It is becoming increasingly clear that trees help people live longer, healthier, happier lives—to the tune of $6.8 billion in averted health costs annually in the U.S., according to research published this week. And we’re only beginning to understand the nature and magnitude of their tree-benevolence. ~healthfreedoms.org/the-health-benefits-of-trees~

Go Fish
by Pat Cunningham

Following the Hellephant’s progress wasn’t a problem. The once-human creature fed as it went, ripping branches from trees and huge swaths of grass from any meadow it passed. This resulted in large piles of natural “breadcrumbs” left in its wake. Deuce, behind the wheel, swerved around one and rolled up his window. “He does like grass,” he remarked. He glanced over at Ewan. “You sure you wouldn’t rather have grabbed a gun?”

“This’ll work.” Ewan was fitting his weapon together—no easy task, as its larger piece was ten feet long and stuck out the passenger-side window. It made stringing the line somewhat difficult. “It’ll get me on top of him. After that I can wing it.”

READING IS GOOD FOR THE BRAIN 'NEWS' ~

Reading Creates Physical Changes In The Brain
Thursday, July 24, 2014
It's summer in the Northern Hemisphere, for many a time to seek rest, relaxation and a good book. The good news is that finding the time to sit and read could actually result in positive physical changes to our brains.
A recent study indicated that reading a novel caused long-lasting alterations in the resting-state connectivity of the brain.
“Stories shape our lives and in some cases help define a person,” commented neuroscientist Gregory Berns, lead author of the study and the director of Emory University’s Center for Neuropolicy. “We want to understand how stories get into your brain, and what they do to it.”
The project monitored the brain reactions of twenty-one students over nineteen consecutive days as they each read the same novel, Pompeii, a 2003 thriller by Robert Harris based on the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in ancient Italy.

RISE OF THE BIGFOOT AND CRYPTIDS 'NEWS' ~

From ~coasttocoastam.com/show/2014/07/25~

Bigfoot & Southwest Cryptids

Date: 07-25-14
Host: Dave Schrader
Guests: JC Johnson, Open Lines

Filling in for George Noory, host Dave Schrader (email) was joined by cryptozoologist JC Johnson (youtube.com/user/cryptofourcorners), who shared his research and experiences with cryptids in the Southwest US. He recounted details from his 1999 bigfoot encounter at Blue Ridge Reservoir in the Mogollon Rim area of Arizona. Johnson and a friend were camping on a ten by fifteen foot rock on a lake when they heard a high-pitched shrill scream and the sound of something moving through the trees. "I saw a huge outline of a very large body in the moonlight," Johnson said, adding that the shrieking creature began throwing rocks and other forest debris from the ridge above the camp site.

When the creature stopped its deafening cry to take a breath it sounded like a 300-pound lung filling up with air, he recalled. Johnson admitted the encounter shocked him and his friend, but suggested bigfoot's aggressive behavior was likely caused by their presence in its territory. After the creature left, still screaming, Johnson investigated and found the trail it had made coming in and leaving. He recommended other interested researchers set up cameras then build a large bonfire and sing loudly to summon the creatures close to the camp site. "They come in and check you out and they watch you," he revealed.

Johnson discussed the case of a young woman who was plagued by a Nightstalker that would tap on her windows and walls at night. A three-clawed track was found outside the house and night cam footage revealed something large and skinny in the vicinity. The creature was estimated to be over nine-feet tall and, according to one eyewitness, had a face similar to the monster from the horror movie Jeepers Creepers, Johnson explained. Corn plants in a nearby field were knocked down flat and a Navajo elder told Johnson about how Nightstalkers fly off the mesa and glide into the field. "For all intents and purposes we're dealing with a demonic gargoyle torturing this young lady," he proposed. Johnson also talked about the Skinwalker phenomena and the process by which an initiate transforms into an animal, his own experience with a black-eyed female, and the existence of miniature T-rexes.

Gobekli Tepe: the Temple of the Watchers
The mysterious stone complex of Gobekli Tepe in Turkey is one of the great mysteries of archaeology. This week, Andrew Collins reports on his findings at the site and discoveries nearby that suggest even more incredible ruins remain to be uncovered.
Andrew Collins has traveled to Gobekli Tepe many times, and has developed a revolutionary theory about the meaning of the 12,000 year old complex. Here, he explains how it was built 12,000 years ago as a reaction to a horrific global cataclysm, and how it works as a gateway and map of the sky-world reached via a star in the constellation of Cygnus.
Unique and mind-opening information from one of the world's great explorers, Andrew Collins!

Unusual Rainbow

In the early evening of July 22, 2014, the Rogue Valley (Ashland, OR.) experienced a summer thunder storm. When I looked to the East from my porch I saw the most amazing rainbow; light on one side, dark on the other, strange streaks throughout, and a particularly bright spot on the yellow spectrum. It also appeared to stop without a full arc. As time passed it began to look like a regular rainbow, but it was certainly out of the ordinary and I half expected to see "The Little People" jump right out of the sky!

Random Snippet From My WIP Files
by Rebecca Gillan

Today I have for you a random snippet from my WIP files. This is something I wrote down, oh, a couple years or so ago. My muse didn't seem to want to go any farther with the story than just one scene, so htis is all there is. It's set in the world of my Wild Lords of the Hunt series. I hope you like it!

~ Rebecca

Hades, the Greek god of the dead had a dog named Cerberus. Cerberus was the latinization of the Greek word kerberos. Kerberos means spot. Dad figured that if "Spot" was good enough for Hades' hell hound, it was good enough for his daughter, who was a wolf. Not a were wolf, either. Kiko, who's name just happened to mean Spot in Polynesian, had been born a wolf.

She had no memory of it, but the first three years of her life had been spent as a wolf pup, tottering after her father's heals. Her father was a shifter lord. This was only relevant because her own son was now three but having been bore in human form, could not yet take the form of a wolf. It would have made it a lot easier to run like hell and escape the man who used to be Ned's father if the two of them could shift into wolf form. This would be a good time for Ned to discover the ability, but Kiko didn't think her luck would extend that far.

We Are Not Alone... Skyflash...
By Savanna Kougar 

Blade Runner, the Peak's own extraterrestrial rabbit shifter, carefully maneuvered his small UFO craft, staying close to the top of the mountain. Upon arrival, mere moments ago, he'd activated the sharp spire of granite with a resonance frequency that kept his disc craft hidden. Enemies lurked everywhere in the unfriendly skies, especially the so-called 'visiting' otherworld races.

With Pachyderm-wolfzilla quaking the ground toward Talbot's Peak, Dante had contacted briefly, both of them aware of a galaxy-sized problem unknown to most. So, despite his earthquaking tryst with his fox-fairy lover that had him sleeping like a newborn rabbit, Blade Runner hopped out of bed. In a matter of minutes, he'd booted up his trusty, pie-pan craft, and soared to the best mountaintop vantage point he'd discovered.

Late night mews, Summer-adventurous and amorous Big Cats... the heat and humidity definitely returned to the tame prairie this afternoon... but, hey, it is summer... the neighbor's cows said hi as the Kougaress walked down to the mailbox... they were close to the fence beneath the trees, about twelve feet away... this Big Cat didn't even see them because she was looking down at the wildflowers... it's only when one of them made a movement... yep, a long day getting stuff done!

Buckle down, and buckle up, darling kittens, the world is rocking crazily, chaotically. And remember, this Big Cat loves ya!

Dante Takes a Stand
by Pat Cunningham

Dante managed to squeeze in a couple of hours’ sleep before the first frantic reports flooded in. There were calls from Deuce and Hoover on his personal phone, and dozens of others on the public “hot line” in the bar. The trouble with being Talbot’s Peak’s unofficial alpha wolf was that people tended to treat him like their personal 911 unit.

This time, that panic might be justified.

He only needed to listen to a handful of calls to get the gist of the peril. Still aching from the wounds he’d sustained in the Philippines, he nevertheless rolled out his motorcycle and roared it down the road toward what sounded like a major disaster.
~~~~~~

Jesse James, U.S. Senator... So, the Kougaress heard this three hour, absolutely amazing show at Revolution Radio ~freedomslips.com~ on Sunday called "Cancel the Cabal", hosted by Stephen Roberts. The guest was Ralph Epperson ~ralph-epperson.com~ who built this ultra fascinating case that Jesse James faked his death, and later became a U.S. Senator under an assumed name. Truly, you just have to hear the show or get the book to appreciate the fine detailed investigation done on this claim. And what a mind-bending, head-spinning story Jesse James' life is... far, far more intriguing than what is generally believed about the outlaw, Jesse James. Several years ago, the Kougaress also read articles about the Confederacy gold Jesse James helped to hide from the Union during the Civil War... well, yep, it's true.

Our Alien Lineage & Giants

Date:     07-19-14
Host:     Richard Syrett
Guests: Paul Von Ward, Micah Hanks

Are we really aliens? Was there a race of giants that once inhabited the Americas? A new book, Lost Secrets of the Gods, asks these mind shattering questions. Authors and researchers Paul Von Ward and Micah Hanks joined host Richard Syrett to discuss their essays in this book.

In the first half, Paul Von Ward explained why the use of the word "alien" to separate humans from other intelligent species can no longer be considered accurate. "We are latecomers in this universe and we've had assistance in our development from more advanced beings," he said. Von Ward dispelled creation myths and explained that life exists throughout the universe and arises by evolutionary processes wherever a certain set of conditions exist. Evolution, however, is not an adequate explanation for the modifications that can be seen in human evolutionary history and the rather quick rise of Homo sapien sapiens, he added.

Evidence demonstrates that modern humans have genetic links with an advanced alien species, Von Ward continued. He pointed to the biblical figure Noah, who is described in ancient stories as having blue eyes, curly red hair, and pale skin—traits unlike others in his family tree. Tribal elders believed that advanced beings called Watchers had intervened in the case of Noah and changed the evolutionary track of humans, Von Ward revealed. He also spoke about longevity before and after the flood cataclysm, noting that "some genetic manipulation had to have occurred to cut off our longevity."

In the latter half, Micah Hanks discussed the folklore surrounding giants as well as evidence that may support the existence of larger than normal human beings. He referenced a petroglyph in North Carolina known as Judaculla Rock, named after a giant of Cherokee legend called Tsul 'Kalu. Hanks shared the myth of Tsul 'Kalu and how it ties into the history of purported giants found in the Americas. Anthropologists James Mooney records the tale of a party of slant-eyed giants nearly twice as tall as common men that had come from the West to visit the Cherokee, he reported.

Hanks commented on the contentious debate about the existence of giants, noting that it is not necessarily a conspiracy since some of the best evidence supporting human remains of large stature can actually be found in Smithsonian records. "Back in the 1890s Cyrus Thomas and other members of the Bureau of Ethnology under the Smithsonian were recovering extremely large skeletal remains from Native American burial mounds," he explained. These skeletons were between seven and eight feet long, he added. Hanks suggested that in ancient times there was a greater incidence of these kinds of large people.

Amazing World View Balloon Flight Video Reveals Stunning Look at Earth
By Mike Wall, Senior Writer
7/18/2014 5:00:26 AM

A new video gives an extended look at the record-breaking first test flight by a company that aims to begin lofting passengers on balloon cruises to near-space by 2016.

On June 18, Arizona-based World View launched a scaled-down version of its balloon system to an altitude of nearly 23 miles (37 kilometers) during a test flight that originated in New Mexico. The new World View balloon video of that unmanned flight, which the company shared with Space.com today (July 15), reveals some spectacular views of Earth from the stratosphere. ~accuweather.com/en/outdoor-articles/astronomy/amazing-world-view-balloon-fli/30531549

Well it is Roswell: Enormous superstorms in the shape of a UFO emerge over home of Area 51(MAIL ONLINE) AMAZING PHOTOS! In the alien invasion movie Independence Day, the spaceships which obliterate Earth's great cities emerge from vast storm clouds just like these.
So it's fitting, then, that these portentous swirling supercells appeared over Roswell, New Mexico, near the U.S. military's secret Area 51 base, where it is widely believed a UFO crashed in 1947.
Jody Miller, from California, tracks down extreme weather conditions like these, risking life and limb to photograph what are incredible examples of the power of nature.

Dragon Air...Come Fly the Ferocious Skies.
By Serena Shay

“No, Fair One, this will not do.”

“Yeah, Gree, though I loath to, I’ve got to agree with the horned slime one here…this is a bad idea.”

Greely looked at her traveling companions and once more wished she could produce smoke from her nostrils and breathe a bit of fire over their asses.  “And how exactly would you both explain a dragon,” she whispered behind her hand, “landing right on the strip?”

“So we land further out of town and call a taxi to come pick us all up, Gree.”

“Yes, hump back, that would be acceptable.”

RLF] What's a Story Molecule?
Date: Jul 17, 2014 9:09 AM

I've been a fan of the TV Tropes website for years. It illustrates themes and mega-themes in fiction and can be a great source when trying to make sure you don't "overdo" characterization and plot. http://tvtropes.org The site Design Through Storytelling created a Periodic Table of Storytelling that uses the TV Tropes concept as well.

My friend Melissa Snark got the idea to not only use it to illustrate how one of her books is laid out, she also invited other authors to her site to share how theirs are illustrated. By combining the "storytelling element" chart with our stories, we put together quite a package of story molecule posts.

I'm the last one up in the series "Elemental Storytelling." http://bit.ly/1oZLdBv I hope you'll come take a look. What molecule form would your favorite story take?
