    Mysterious Ball Lightning - Also...

    Ball Lightning — one of nature’s most astonishing enigmas is a phenomena which definitely exists. One European study counted over 5,000 sightings that ignite both wonder and scientific curiosity of these weird balls. 
It also seems to be similar to old tales of the “Will O the Wisp” and World War Two Foo Fighters. 
St. Elmos Fire also has similar observations so data on this phenomenon that dazzles scientists, baffled yet intrigued and mystics alike are included too. 
There are many potential explanations but none are confirmed. Although most seem to appear around thunderstorms this is not always the case. 
My own belief is that these objects are controlled by some type of intelligence and we will discuss reasons for this later in the book. 
In this book you will read a lot of background information and sightings that ignite both wonder and scientific curiosity stories by persons for the last hundreds of years. 
This is just another mystery in our strange world which cries out for more investigation.

    The Book of Flaco - The World’s...

    The story of Flaco, the Eurasian eagle-owl who escaped from Central Park Zoo and captured the hearts and imaginations of millions of followers around the world. 
 
 
 
Nature writer David Gessner chronicles the year-long odyssey of Flaco and the human drama that followed the owl who captured the imaginations of New Yorkers and people around the world. Though he'd spent his life in a cage, Flaco learned to survive in New York City by eating rats, squirrels, and birds. He was an immigrant coming from elsewhere to make it in the big city. Central Park, the island of green in an urban sea, was his new home territory. 
 
 
 
Flaco's urban adventure brought controversy, pitting those who felt he should be returned to the safety of the zoo against those who created the "Free Flaco" movement. The birding world was fractured over the ethics of the online sharing of his location that brought scores of enthusiasts to view him each day. And his end—with a grim necropsy revealing Flaco had suffered a viral infection from eating pigeons and had multiple rodenticides in his system—serves as a Rachel Carson-esque warning about the harm we've done to our urban environments, inspiring the passage of long-sought legislation protecting urban birds and regulations meant to reduce the use of rodenticides in New York City.

    The information in this ebook on various aspects of using the Internet to your advantage is organised into 20 chapters of about 500-600 words each. 
I hope that it will interest those who are hoping to make money on line. In fact, the number of people trying to make (some extra) money online has skyrocketed over the last ten or twelve years, but especially since the Covid-19 lockdowns. 
Not everything can be blamed on Covid-19 though. Britain, for example, has suffered twelve years of ‘austerity’ brought in by a government that seems no longer to care about the electorate. First they blamed the banking crisis; then the influx of foreign labour; then Covid; and now Brexit and the war in the Ukraine. No doubt you have heard similar excuses where you live. Anyway, the result has been exorbitant inflation and a reduction in wages, and that has led to enterprising people trying improve their situation by working online. This book is for you. I hope that it helps.

  • The Shocking Truth about Healthcare Systems - cover

    The Shocking Truth about...

    Healthcare is one of the most essential pillars of modern society, yet it remains one of the most controversial and deeply flawed systems worldwide. While medical advancements have saved countless lives, the way healthcare is structured and delivered often leaves patients struggling with high costs, limited access, and inconsistent quality of care. The system, which is supposed to heal and protect, frequently feels more like a business prioritizing profit over people.  
  
Across the globe, healthcare models vary significantly. Some countries provide universal healthcare, ensuring that all citizens have access to medical services without financial hardship. Others rely on privatized, insurance-based systems that leave many individuals burdened with medical debt or forced to forgo necessary treatments. Regardless of the model, most systems share a common problem—inefficiencies, corruption, and a lack of patient-centered care.  
  
One of the most alarming aspects of modern healthcare is its commercialization. In many nations, medical treatment has become a commodity rather than a fundamental human right. Pharmaceutical companies, insurance providers, and hospital networks have turned healthcare into a multi-trillion-dollar industry, often at the expense of those who need it most. Prescription drug prices skyrocket without justification, insurance policies are riddled with loopholes designed to deny coverage, and hospitals charge exorbitant fees for basic services. Instead of prioritizing patient well-being, financial incentives drive medical decisions, sometimes leading to unnecessary procedures, overprescription of medications, and inequitable access to care.
