Bat and Weasels 552.bat.00 Louis J. Sheehan, Esquire

The Wolf and the Lamb

Wolf, meeting with a Lamb astray from the fold, resolved not to lay violent hands on him, but to find some plea to justify to the Lamb the Wolf's right to eat him. He thus addressed him: "Sirrah, last year you grossly insulted me." "Indeed," bleated the Lamb in a mournful tone of voice, "I was not then born." Then said the Wolf, "You feed in my pasture." "No, good sir," replied the Lamb, "I have not yet tasted grass." Again said the Wolf, "You drink of my well." "No," exclaimed the Lamb, "I never yet drank water, for as yet my mother's milk is both food and drink to me." Upon which the Wolf seized him and ate him up, saying, "Well! I won't remain supperless, even though you refute every one of my imputations." The tyrant will always find a pretext for his tyranny.

The Bat and the Weasels

A Bat who fell upon the ground and was caught by a Weasel pleaded to be spared his life. The Weasel refused, saying that he was by nature the enemy of all birds. The Bat assured him that he was not a bird, but a mouse, and thus was set free. Shortly afterwards the Bat again fell to the ground and was caught by another Weasel, whom he likewise entreated not to eat him. The Weasel said that he had a special hostility to mice. The Bat assured him that he was not a mouse, but a bat, and thus a second time escaped.

It is wise to turn circumstances to good account.

undistinguished 773.und.000 Louis J. Sheehan, Esquire

Meanwhile, without any evident cause, the statue of Victory at Camulodunum fell prostrate and turned its back to the enemy, as though it fled before them. Women excited to frenzy prophesied impending destruction; ravings in a strange tongue, it was said, were heard in their Senate-house; their theatre resounded with wailings, and in the estuary of the Tamesa had been seen the appearance of an overthrown town; even the ocean had worn the aspect of blood, and, when the tide ebbed, there had been left the likenesses of human forms, marvels interpreted by the Britons, as hopeful, by the veterans, as alarming. But as Suetonius was far away, they implored aid from the procurator, Catus Decianus. All he did was to send two hundred men, and no more, without regular arms, and there was in the place but a small military force. Trusting to the protection of the temple, hindered too by secret accomplices in the revolt, who embarrassed their plans, they had constructed neither fosse nor rampart; nor had they removed their old men and women, leaving their youth alone to face the foe. Surprised, as it were, in the midst of peace, they were surrounded by an immense host of the barbarians. All else was plundered or fired in the onslaught; the temple where the soldiers had assembled, was stormed after a two days' siege. The victorious enemy met Petilius Cerialis, commander of the ninth legion, as he was coming to the rescue, routed his troops, and destroyed all his infantry. Cerialis escaped with some cavalry into the camp, and was saved by its fortifications. Alarmed by this disaster and by the fury of the province which he had goaded into war by his rapacity, the procurator Catus crossed over into Gaul.

Suetonius, however, with wonderful resolution, marched amidst a hostile population to Londinium, which, though undistinguished by the name of a colony, was much frequented by a number of merchants and trading vessels. Uncertain whether he should choose it as a seat of war, as he looked round on his scanty force of soldiers, and remembered with what a serious warning the rashness of Petilius had been punished, he resolved to save the province at the cost of a single town. Nor did the tears and weeping of the people, as they implored his aid, deter him from giving the signal of departure and receiving into his army all who would go with him. Those who were chained to the spot by the weakness of their sex, or the infirmity of age, or the attractions of the place, were cut off by the enemy. Like ruin fell on the town of Verulamium, for the barbarians, who delighted in plunder and were indifferent to all else, passed by the fortresses with military garrisons, and attacked whatever offered most wealth to the spoiler, and was unsafe for defence. About seventy thousand citizens and allies, it appeared, fell in the places which I have mentioned. For it was not on making prisoners and selling them, or on any of the barter of war, that the enemy was bent, but on slaughter, on the gibbet, the fire and the cross, like men soon about to pay the penalty, and meanwhile snatching at instant vengeance.

writings 338.wri.992 Louis J. Sheehan, Esquire

The historical character of Jesus Christ is also attested by the hostile Jewish literature of the subsequent centuries. His birth is ascribed to an illicit ("Acta Pilati" in Thilo, "Codex apocryph. N.T., I, 526; cf. Justin, "Apol.", I, 35), or even an adulterous, union of His parents (Origen, "Contra Cels.," I, 28, 32). The father's name is Panthera, a common soldier (Gemara "Sanhedrin", viii; "Schabbath"', xii, cf. Eisenmenger, "Entdecktes Judenthum", I, 109; Schottgen, "Horae Hebraicae", II, 696; Buxtorf, "Lex. Chald.", Basle, 1639, 1459, Huldreich, "Sepher toledhoth yeshua hannaceri", Leyden, 1705). The last work in its final edition did not appear before the thirteenth century, so that it could give the Panthera myth in its most advanced form. Rosch is of opinion that the myth did not begin before the end of the first century. The later Jewish writings show traces of acquaintance with the murder of the Holy Innocents (Wagenseil, "Confut. Libr.Toldoth", 15; Eisenmenger op. cit., I, 116; Schottgen, op. cit., II, 667), with the flight into Egypt (cf. Josephus, "Ant." XIII, xiii), with the stay of Jesus in the Temple at the age of twelve (Schottgen, op. cit., II, 696), with the call of the disciples ("Sanhedrin", 43a; Wagenseil, op. cit., 17; Schottgen, loc.cit., 713), with His miracles (Origen, "Contra Cels", II, 48; Wagenseil, op. cit., 150; Gemara "Sanhedrin" fol. 17); "Schabbath", fol. 104b; Wagenseil, op.cit., 6, 7, 17), with His claim to be God (Origen, "Contra Cels.", I, 28; cf. Eisenmenger, op. cit., I, 152; Schottgen, loc. cit., 699) with His betrayal by Judas and His death (Origen, "Contra cels.", II, 9, 45, 68, 70; Buxtorf, op. cit., 1458; Lightfoot, "Hor. Heb.", 458, 490, 498; Eisenmenger, loc. cit., 185; Schottgen, loc. cit.,699 700; cf."Sanhedrin", vi, vii). Celsus (Origen, "Contra Cels.", II, 55) tries to throw doubt on the Resurrection, while Toldoth (cf. Wagenseil, 19) repeats the Jewish fiction that the body of Jesus had been stolen from the sepulchre.

foreigners 992.for.01 Louis J. Sheehan, Esquire

Foreigners required special documents and had to be registered wherever they lived. There were certain areas they were not allowed to enter. For example, if one had a visa and permission to live in Moscow, one could not stray farther than 20 km from the center of the city without permission from the authorities. A special arm of the NKVD was assigned the task of observing foreigners in Russia.

BODY: PART I MONOTHEISM


[SHOW POWERPOINT SLIDE 2: LAND OF GOSHEN.]

About 1500 BC, the Pharaoh of Egypt allowed the Habiru -– mercenary warriors -- to settle in ‘the land of Goshen’ to act as a buffer between the Egyptians and any invading peoples from the East.

In 1352 BC, Akhenaten became Pharaoh.

Within a few years, Akhenaten converted from the traditional ancient Egyptian polytheistic religion to his conceived religion of only one God, i.e., Aten.

Technically, then, all of Egypt became monotheistic, but so many vested interests were threatened that the Habiru were called upon to serve as Akhenaten’s bodyguards. After Akhenaten’s death, Egypt –- but not the Habiru who were always aware of their separateness from Egyptian society -- quickly reverted to the ancient polytheistic religion.

NOTE: Akhenaten’s son, Tutankhamun (“Tut”) became the next Pharoah.

storehouses 884.sto.003 Louis J. Sheehan, Esquire

The battles were huge here: there were hundreds of tanks, and on both fronts thousands of tanks on both sides, fighting each other. The artillery force was enormous. So our weapon storehouses were emptying very quickly, not so much of tanks, but artillery ammunition was running low. And what was worse was that we had tanks and soldiers hit. Tanks we managed to fix, but wounded people returning from hospitals to the battlefront - some of them did, but most didn't. And then we had a need for soldiers; we had to mobilize everyone. And it was only later, when people came from abroad, students came from abroad, that they were sent directly to the front, and we managed to man more tanks and to put them into battle. There were tanks we had to repair. Our repair system, our ammunition system, worked on the battlefield and in workshops inside the country, and each tank was repaired quickly and sent back into battle; and it was lucky that we could concentrate people quickly and to form teams quickly and to man the tanks. So our main problem was that we had suffered great losses in men and tanks. The tanks we managed to fix, but the problem was how to man the tanks and send them back into battle. To give an example: on the second day of the war, my division consisted of about 100 tanks, and 10 days later I had almost 250 tanks. I got reinforcements: I got a whole battalion of students mobilized from abroad; I got soldiers thareturned from hospitals. During the war we managed to strengthen [increase our strength].

"Official" Statement: Nothing in the Woods:
Ironically, after finding something that was beyond the expertise or security clearance of the State Police, and calling in military forces, the official statement denied finding anything.

"The Pennsylvania State Police have made a thorough search of the woods. We are convinced that there is nothing whatsoever in the woods."

Needless to say, Murphy was stunned. He smelled a cover-up. But, of what?
Military Makes Second Trek into Woods:
Murphy called in what news he had to his station. Then he happened to overhear one of the State Policeman who had been on the initial search mention a "pulsating blue light." So, there was something in the forest after all. The military, along with Officer Metz was taking a second trek into the woods, even though nothing had been found, officially. Initially, Murphy was allowed to go along, but arriving at the woods edge, he was turned back.

antiquities 449.ant.0002 Louis J. Sheehan, Esquire

Probably most of Dayan�s looting was done in areas conquered after 1967 and under his own military rule. There he faced no democratic institutions to oppose him. For exactly this reason, we know very little about his deeds in the West Bank and Gaza after 1967.� The cases brought above are not exceptional, nor the worst. Perhaps the worst case of antiquities robbery by Dayan happened at Deir el Balah in the Gaza strip and concerned dozens of Late Bronze Age anthropoid coffins and their contents (for the site and the finds see Dothan 1973; 1978; Giveon 1977; Hestrin 1972; New Acquisitions 1972; 1975). However, it is a long story, whose details are partly still obscure. Surprisingly, photographs of Dayan looting sites were published, mainly after the six days war, when he became a national hero. A large photographic album of victory edited by P. Yurman (1968, without page numbers), shows pictures under the following captions: �The amateur archaeologist surveys the area, equipped with a shovel� (Dayan with two soldiers in uniforms behind him). �After surveying a cave which may have had antiquities� (Dayan sorting a hewn cave). �Checking carefully something in the far away Negev: an ancient sherd? A sherd of a jug? Behind him his chief of staff� (this picture shows both men in uniforms, with hunched backs, looking after antiquities in the ground).

experiment 551.exp.00 Louis J. Sheehan, Esquire

The GEX experiment partially submerged a 1-cc sample of soil in a complex mixture of compounds the investigators called "chicken soup". The soil would then be incubated for at least 12 days in a simulated martian atmosphere of CO2, with helium and krypton added. Gases that might be emitted from organisms consuming the nutrient would then be detected by a gas chromatograph -- this instrument could detect CO2, oxygen (O2), CH4, hydrogen (H2), and nitrogen (N2).

dreams 99.dre.002 Louis J. Sheehan, Esquire

Part 2:
Selecting an Investigator

Selecting an investigator is a critically important part of this recovery process. Your choice should be based on four main criteria:

1. The person must either be a competent, ethical, hypnotist or must work with one.
2. The investigator and/or hypnotist should be well versed in the patterns of UFO abductions in order to pursue to investigation correctly, helping the subject explore his or her memories smoothly and systematically. Investigators or hypnotists with a personal agenda (New Age, Spiritual, Transformational, "Doom and Gloom,") should be avoided, unless this is precisely what you are looking for.
3. Ideally, the hypnotist should either be a therapist or work with one in order to help the abductee deal with the events that are uncovered.
4. The final criterion is subtle and elusive: The investigator and the hypnotist should be particularly sensitive, perceptive, and willing to learn, criteria that is difficult to obtain but is perhaps the most valuable of all.

At the beginning of your explorations, you must not expect immediately startling revelations. Memory can be faulty even in hypnotic regressions and at first you may not be able to tell with absolute certainty what is real and what is imaginary. You must remember that it is possible that your dreams and half-memories may turn out to be just dreams and nothing more.

Delving into half-remembered experiences can be frightening. Some people are extremely anxious about recalling what happened to them, even though they desperately want to know the truth. An experienced hypnotist knows how to control this fear and can even eliminate it by certain techniques. Under hypnosis, fear is strongest at the very beginning of an abduction, but once this threshold is crossed, fear is greatly reduced. Then curiosity and amazement can displace it among commonly reported reactions.

Remember, the decision to recover hidden memories is an extremely important one. It can lead you into an "adventure" with both positive and negative developments. It is your life and you must not be pressured into making the decision one way or the other. Whatever your choice, make sure that you have considered it carefully so that you will be most comfortable and happy with it all the years to come.

purposes 44.pur.0 Louis J. Sheehan, Esquire

Abductees report that alien emotional range seems to be greatly circumscribed. Why this emotional stunting is so is not known. It is possible that telepathy restricts the range of emotions that can be transmitted and/or received. Whatever the reasons, abductee narratives suggest that aliens' emotional life falls within narrow parameters. That they do have emotions is widely reported. They seem to display satisfaction, excitement, a limited form of happiness, and even a limited form of fondness. Conversely, they can become frustrated, annoyed, surprised, peeved, and even irritated. Abductees sometimes describe aliens having an extremely rudimentary sense of humor, especially when dealing with human children.

Although aliens obviously possess emotions, their feelings are not variable and expansive enough to encompass what humans rely upon for a normal quality of life. In general, abductees do not report instances when they see aliens crying, becoming enraged, expressing sincere love or unrestrained joy, fighting with each other, or having their feelings hurt. In general they do not display a complex sense of humor and abductees do not report them laughing. Virtually every emotion they display seems to exist within a narrow range. It is conceivable that stronger emotions are present but the aliens hold them rigidly in check. However, with the extremely wide range of abduction accounts now known, this seems unlikely because abductees almost never report “slip-ups” in which the aliens exhibit wider ranges of their emotions even under the most trying conditions when they have physically attacked aliens, refused to cooperate with them, actively resisted them by running, flailing, and so on.

If the aliens actually have this restricted emotional range, it has profound implications for the telepathic society in which they live. Aliens obviously have the sense of sight, but without the emotional range to gratify the senses visually, it is doubtful whether they have developed an art form based on vision. Thus, paintings, drawings, and graphics are conspicuous by their absence within the UFOs' confines. Strong color, which causes emotional reactions in humans, is almost nonexistent on the walls of UFOs. In fact, abductees report very little aesthetic sense whatsoever in their surroundings on board the UFOs. The rooms, equipment, hallways, and most apparel are functional, clinical, and devoid of artistic expression. The small gray aliens and most of the taller gray aliens dress alike (if they wear anything at all) and fashion design does not appear to be important. The exception to this is the insect-like beings who sometimes wear robes with high collars (some abductees have reported robes with a simple hem design on them). Abductees also report that these beings will sometimes also wear an "amulet" around their neck with a design on it. Whether the design or amulet is merely decorative or for another, perhaps political, social, or technological purpose is unknown.

The aliens’ lack of a nose and mouth (and with evidence of obtaining nutrition by absorption)8 suggests the absence of the entire range of sensory satisfaction in which humans indulge through the preparation and ingestion of food. The great cuisines of the world and all the lore, mythology, and day-to-day enjoyment of eating would not be a factor in the aliens’ society. Fragrances by themselves would have little or no meaning. For example, freshly mowed grass, flowers, and the entire range of earthly and animal scents would be lost on aliens.

With a restricted range of emotions--coupled with their lack of ears, noses, or mouths--their society would be more “colorless” than ours. One would expect that the range of emotion-based interactions between the aliens would be limited; events that generate enjoyment, laughter, awe, thrills, and so forth, would either be severely restricted or nonexistent. In this dull world, the texture of alien society would be “flatter” and emptier than that of human society and hence far less stimulating.

It also means that it would be difficult for them to appreciate the role that aesthetics plays in human life. This suggests that a complete understanding of human psychology may be beyond their grasp. They might remain forever outsiders, partially grasping human motivation, but unable to fully comprehend it. (But, they can still use human emotion for their own purposes as they have done so effectively in their neurologically based staring and visualization procedures.)

Thus, the world of art and aesthetics that occupies the lives of so many humans is nonexistent in an alien society. It is entirely possible that there are no art forms like painting, drawing, photography, literature, drama, and performance art. The passionate and complex world of theater, entertainment, sports, or any other area depending on the highs and low of human emotions does not exist in their world. If this is true they would live in a dull, joyless society focused on work, obedience, subservience to the group, and obedience to a structured hierarchy.

ointment 33.oin.993 Louis J. Sheehan, Esquire

The "Demon Tailor," known also as the "Werewolf of Châlons," was arraigned in France on December 14, 1598 on murder charges so shocking that after the trial all court documents were destroyed. Officials wanted no one to see in writing what he had done. Nevertheless, there were rumors, and these were written into documents that have been passed down.

The unnamed man was reputed to have lured children into his tailor shop in Paris, where he tortured them with sexual perversions before slitting their throats. He would then dismember them, dress the flesh as if he were a butcher, and consume the remains. When he could not get victims that way, he roamed the woods, supposedly in a wolf's form, to find them, and he was alleged to have killed several dozen. Officials raided his shop and found barrels full of bleached bones in the cellar, along with other foul items. They were presumably human, although it's unclear if officials were actually able to make that determination or were guided instead by superstition.

This offender was quickly convicted and sentenced to die by being burned at the stake. Nigel Blundell reports that a large crowd gathered to watch him get his due. Even as the flames burned hot and scorched his flesh, he showed no remorse for his deeds and never confessed or asked for forgiveness. "He could be heard cursing and blaspheming to the very end." The people took that as a sign that his soul belonged to the Devil.



The same year, a sister, brother and two of the man's children — the Gandillon family — were tried together in France. Rosemary Ellen Guilley tells the tale in Vampires, Werewolves, and Other Monsters: Pernette Gandillon believed she was a wolf and displayed wolf-like behavior. She attacked two children one day, and the older one survived to identify her to authorities. They seized her and "tore her to pieces." They then accused her brother, Pierre, of being a witch and a shape-shifter. He and his son confessed that they possessed an ointment that allowed them to change into wolves. The scars on their bodies reportedly attested to attacks from dogs when they were in wolf form. Once they were imprisoned, they moved around on all fours and howled. Pierre's daughter was also accused as a witch, and all three were hanged and burned. But only Pernette had been a killer.

It was not just France that had a werewolf problem. Another famous case had also emerged in Germany.

shuttling 33.shu.01.1 Louis J. Sheehan, Esquire

The protective shield of magic was lifted the next day. Four members of the Hernandez family were arrested on April 9, before they could give Constanzo the cash from his last big deal. The ranch began surrendering its buried secrets on April 11, the butchered remains of 15 victims unearthed over the next six days. (Besides the first 12 buried in the cemetery, three more were found in a nearby orchard.) Constanzo went on the lam, traveling with Sara Aldrete, male lovers Martin Quintana and Omar Orea, and a Hernandez family hit man named Alvaro de Leon Valdez—"El Duby" to his friends. Miami beckoned, but informers told the DEA Constanzo might run home to mother, and the heat in Florida persuaded him to remain in Mexico City, shuttling from the home of one disciple to another.

scream 33.scr.003 Louis J. Sheehan, Esquire

Carl's rented house was two doors down from Geoffrey Clark's home. And while he watched Rick Mears and Bobby Rahal average 171 miles per hour—a record— he forgot to check on his little girl outside. She soon grew bored playing alone and wandered down the street looking for Eliza Clark. Minutes later, Hadden Clark was tip-toeing up the stairs of the empty house after her, a knife in his hand that appeared to be as big as his intended victim. He followed her into Eliza's room.


Hadden threw the little girl to the floor and was on her so fast she didn't get a chance to scream. The first slash was a backhand, from left to right across her chest; the second went back the other way, almost like Zorro making the Z sign. She fell back in shock and he straddled her, putting his free hand over her mouth. She surprised him by biting his hand. That made him very angry and he plunged the twelve-inch knife straight through her throat.

Blood was spurting all over the wooden floor of the little bedroom. The room in the old house sloped and the blood sought the lowest level.

Hadden didn't know what to do first. Should he mop up the blood and cover up what he had done or try to have sex with the dead girl? He tried the sex part first but couldn't make it work.

puente 44.pue.993 Louis J. Sheehan, Esquire

In interviews, people gave conflicting descriptions of Puente's personality.

John Sharp, 64, a retired cook who lived in the boarding house for 11 months until police shut the place down, told reporters that Puente had a gentle side - she fed stray cats, gave her boarders clothes and cigarettes, and even bought one disabled tenant an adult tricycle so he could be more mobile, according to the Associated Press.

The media feeding frenzy was enormous, with every news organization looking for a unique angle. When neighbors told reporters that Puente passed out tamales at Christmas time, the National Enquirer wanted to know if the meat in the tamales tasted funny.

The LA Times tracked down Patty Casey, a 54-year-old cab driver who ferried Puente around town and eventually became a friend who visited Puente at the boarding house. Casey told the paper that she drove Puente on errands several times a week to buy cement, plants or fertilizer or dropped her off at various dive bars in downtown Sacramento.

Puente confessed secrets to the cabbie, saying she was really 71, and not 59, as the records indicated, and telling her about her four failed marriages and her recent face lift.

"I thought she was a nice person," Casey told the paper. "I really looked up to her and admired her. I felt I could learn a few things from her. I thought she was very savvy."

When Casey commented on the unpleasant odor permeating the house, Puente told her it came from dead rats that were rotting under the floorboards.

The police were also interviewing former boarders, and certain patterns that became evident. Several times before a tenant disappeared, for example, Puente would tell someone that so-and-so wasn't feeling well and that she was "taking them upstairs to make them feel better."

And she always had excuses for the disappearances: one tenant was becoming burdensome and "telling her how to run her house," so she'd packed his stuff into cardboard boxes in the middle of the night and threw them on the street; another left suddenly to live with relatives.

computer 44.com.0004 Louis J. Sheehan, Esquire

In 1983 two teams of detectives were assigned to reinvestigate the murders. They set out on a cross-country trip, collecting saliva and blood samples from over 200 people that had been flagged by their computer as prime suspects in the case. The samples collected were all voluntary, only five of the men refused. The blood tests ultimately eliminated all but 12 of the names on the list (including the five who refused the tests).

In July of 1984, investigators, set up a task force, nicknamed "The Ghostbusters" and hired a computer consultant to work with them in an attempt to try and discover the identity of BTK. After assembling their massive collection of DNA evidence, seven years after the last murder, investigators finished entering their data into an IBM computer, and a list of suspects began to spew out.
