IQ, Starchild Skull & 8+) & Twit(ter)

Chris mentioned that if you type 8 + ) you get that smiley face dude, but I had no reason to do that and did not. Also my computer, the new one, is still doing the crazy type thing where it blows itself up for no reason while I’m writing. This happens to the point of the type becoming so large and illegible that I have to demagnify it. It’s odd, the lights are flickering right now, the DVD turns itself on and off all night. My daughter had the worst nightmare of her life, it took almost 2 hours to calm her down. Something is going on. I remember being a little kid and having so much scary crazy psychic phenomena happen it was ridiculous. The TV would turn itself off and on all day long, the garage door would go up and down, the radio dial in the car and at home would turn itself from station to station, this was when there were big giant knobs and stuff, light bulbs would blow out all the time, I’d go to tape something (with those early giant home tape recorders) and there would be creepy voices when I played back the tape. And that was before it got really bad. I hope my kid doesn’t have to deal with that. It was terrifying! I couldn’t sleep at night, it’s a long story I’ll dole out. I didn’t think being psychic was a gift at all, just a horrible curse. I really didn’t have a choice but learn to control it or I’d be calling the Ghost Hunters from an insane asylum. Seriously, not fun. 

Wei: Thanks for the tip about the “test” regarding the Starchild Skull. It sounds interesting. 

The weather here in LA has been so insane. It was in the triple digits one day and then in the 60s the next, windy and dry to overcast and humid. It triggered the migraine problem which is why I was absent for a couple of days on the blog. I’m a human barometer. I have one other friend with this problem and when both of us get migraine symptoms we know its going to rain. Thank God I don’t live in Chicago anymore, I’d always be sick.

IQ is interesting and I have read that men score higher on those tests than women. But this could be because the male brain is structured to be able to completely focus on something to the exclusion of all other things which is why they often can’t multi-task. Women are also genius’s when it comes to picking up subtle cues on people’s faces and can read very complex emotions quickly, have more color cones in their eyes and generally have trouble with spatial relationships. Perhaps this is why women don’t score as high, the things tested for on IQ tests are generally more male brain orientated and perhaps why people with Asberger’s do well on IQ tests. They have what some scientists have called extremely male brains.

A man invented the IQ test so it has the bias of what he thought mattered in intelligence. I’m not complaining, I have always done well on those tests but I have often thought them inadequate at truly getting to the root of intelligence in a comprehensive way. And depending on how the test is structured (if it is biased toward “general knowledge,” or logic or whatever) a person’s score can vary quite a bit. Believe it or not (and this is ironic since I’m a psychic) I always score highest in logic by miles. If you just tested me on logic alone my IQ is kind of outrageous, but throw in some general knowledge about who won the world cup or something I could care less about and I will not do as well (also I missed a lot of school, I mean a lot, actually an entire year once due to health problems as a kid.) I think that the more an IQ test relies on general knowledge the less it has to do with intrinsic intellegence or the ability to discern patterns, use logic to figure out things and extrapolate answers. In my opinion those tests are culturally biased and the better educated a person is, the better their score will be. In my opinion that sort of test is not only flawed but relatively worthless in a world where a person can google anything and get an immediate answer. I read an article in Discover magazine about the mind no longer being located just in the brain, that the access to information is so prevalant a person no longer needs to store everything and memorize it thereby leaving room for the brain to process things in new ways. As we develop and evolve, we might find that memory becomes less and less important in our evaluation of intelligence as information is codified in everything around us and serves little purpose taking up space in our gray matter.  It maybe more important to utilize precious brain space with remembering where to access any and all information and how to use systems rather than memorizing the Gettysburg Address.

OK and my rant for the night. What the hell is the point of twitter? So you can read the boring things people are randomly thinking about completely out of any context? I know model/actor/producer Ashton Kutcher somehow convinced Oprah that it was AWESOME. But come on. It’s ridiculous. I don’t want to know what someone ate for lunch. I don’t want to know what someone wished they ate for lunch. Can’t we have some privacy anymore? This is the last and final blow to the mental boundary of intellectual privacy. Plus it’s just dang boring. Please? Am I just not getting it? Or is this the emperor walking down the street with no clothes on and everyone’s just taking pictures on their iPhone of his cool new outfit?

Enough of my blabbing. I’m sleep bound.

Talk to you all tomorrow and many blessings to all you good people,

Denise

Oh and someone asked about the Swine Flu. I’m a bit worried about it intellectually, but I haven’t had any psychic feeling that it was going to go hog wild. Ok, terrible pun, something my husband would do but come on with a name like Swine Flu…

Starchild

I’ve told everyone about the research I’ve been doing about alien abductions. Well, years ago I went to a MUFON meeting here in LA and held a replica of the Starchild Skull. This skull was found in a cave in Mexico and carbon dated to 900 years ago. Various tests had been done on the skull which was abnormally tough, actually it was sent to a lab and found to be impossible to break down. DNA tests were performed in the 1990s and they were inconclusive because only the mitochondrial DNA was retrievable. However the nuclear DNA which would have come from the father was unrecoverable at the time. 

Recently an episode of UFO Hunters tackled the Starchild Skull mystery. But having seen and felt the exact replica I don’t think they did a good enough job of conveying how convincing this skull is. It really looks like a hybrid, or a cross between a gray and a human being. It has been my feeling now after a lot of research that the most common type of alien known as the grays, have been interbreeding themselves with us for thousands of years. And in some cases they are accelerating the process by picking on particular familial lines. They seem to abduct several generations. Why? Well, it’s my intuition they are trying to change or tweak the overall human race, make us evolve in some direction either for pure scientific experiment or for a variety of other reasons, some sinister, some neutral and some benevolent. 

I would very much like to try to get information about certain commonalities between abductees. So far most of this research has been about psychologizing those involved in the phenomena. What I’m interested in are possible physical differences between abductees and everyday people. The Starchild Skull had no sinuses perhaps abductees would be more apt to have sinus trouble as it is my belief that they are potentially hybrid’s themselves, just much more watered down versions. If anyone is or knows someone who is an abductee please have them post or e-mail me some basic stats. Here is the info I’d like to collect:

1) Their basic IQ score.

2) Any other paranormal abilities, telepathy, telekenisis, premonitions, etc.

3) Any physical troubles, please don’t edit there maybe patterns here that no one has thought about.

4) Strange paranormal stories that have been passed down about the family, no matter what context they are put in either religious or otherwise.

5) Any gut feelings about the mission and/or purpose of the abductions.

6) Whether the experience was seen as negative or positive by the abductee.

7) Any residual effects noticed after an abduction experience or dream of an abduction experience.

8) Whether means were tried to rid the abductee of being taken against their will.

9) Any emotional problems the abductee feels maybe related to their experiences of abduction.

10) Any other info that seems pertinent to the abductee.

I’d like to compile as much information as possible and then try to find patterns. This is completely anonymous and no one’s name will ever been given out to anyone. Once I finish the research I’ll publish the findings on the blog and give an analysis. I have some strong feelings about these events but I don’t want to jump to conclusions. I would like to be more empirical in my process here due to the subject matter. I don’t want to just give some channelled answer or theory a whirl as this has already been done countless times without any real quantifiable effect or solid answer.

Thanks for your participation in advance.

Best to all you good people out there,

Denise
