Adam Gorightly has been chronicling fringe culture for two decades. His articles have appeared in nearly every 'zine, underground magazine, counter-cultural publication, and conspiratorial website imaginable. Bringing a mischievous sense of prankster to the zany world of fringe culture, once Gorightly connects his dots, readers are plunged into alternative universes which forever alter their view of 'reality.' His landmark work, The Shadow Over Santa Susana: Black Magic, Mind Control and the Manson Family Mythos is by far the best ever compiled on the Tate-Labianca murders. Far from being portrayed as prosecutor Vincent Bugliosi's caricatured bogeyman, Gorightly paints a broader picture of Manson in relation to Hollywood porn films, Anton LaVey's Satanism, Scientology and the Process Church, MK-ULTRA, designer drugs. An even wilder ride (if that's possible) can be found in The Prankster and the Conspiracy which examines the remarkable life of Kerry Thornley-a 1960s Zen radical chaos-creator who was quite realistically being groomed as a Lee Harvey Oswald 'patsy-double' before the Kennedy assassination. Everyone from Ken Kesey, Robert Anton Wilson, and Jim Garrison make appearances during this no-holds barred adventure. . Other intriguing releases include Death Cults; the hipster biography, James Shelby Downard's Mystical War; and The Beast of Adam Gorightly: Collected Rantings. In the latter, he describes the time when Doc Ellis of the Pittsburgh Pirates dropped LSD and pitched a no-hitter; and how J.D. Salinger's Catcher in the Rye has been used as a control mechanism to trigger mind-numbed Manchurian Candidates. Other subjects include Stanley Kubrick's Eyes Wide Shut, the Disneyland Dead, and Hitler Was a Good American. -Victor Thorn

Spyros Melaris started making films at about the same time that he took up magic. At six years old, Spyros was already making short films with a standard 8mm cine camera that his dad bought him. He eventually bought an editing set and a projector. Soon he discovered the new Super 8mm cine film with sound! Spyros wanted to be an actor from a very young age, he followed a career in motor vehicle engineering in his father’s footsteps. He also worked part time for the BBC in London in the late 1980s. He realized very soon that for him to make progress in the TV and film business, he could not do it at the BBC. Although Spyros was already making music videos (pop promos) on a freelance basis for many leading bands and musicians, his dream was to establish his own TV Production Facilities House. It was about that time that he met the Sculptor John Humphreys. They worked together on several frontline TV and feature film special effects. John and Spyros became best friends and Spyros is godfather to John’s twins, Michael and Louise. In early 1995, Spyros met Ray Santilli in Cannes, France.

Spyros owned and ran ‘Waterfall Studios’ in London’s White City, opposite to the BBC, and within two years he had transformed the studio into the largest independent television broadcasting facility in the UK.

Ted Roe, Director of Research, NARCAP (National Aviation Reporting Center On Anomalous Phenomena) NARCAP was founded in 1999. Through careful planning NARCAP has become a respected research organization dedicated to studying UAP and aviation safety for the benefit of the aviation community. NARCAP was developed because the aviation industry is operating under a bias that is causing an under-reporting of safety-related encounters with UAP. The US Government and the Federal Aviation Administration are adamant that there are no unidentified aerial phenomena and do not study them in spite of the many observations and incidents that have been reported by pilots and aviation professionals around the world.

In 1966, Harley Rutledge completed his Ph.D. in solid state physics at the University of Missouri. A short time later he took the position of Professor and Chairman of the Physics Department at Southeast Missouri State University. He became President of the Missouri Academy of Science. He was Department Chairman from 1964 through 1982 and retired from teaching in 1992. During the Missouri UFO flap Dr. Rutledge brought along his 11 yearly son Mark and he would help setup and breakdown equipment for the group. As the years passed and he became a teenager Mark had his own experiences with the phenomena with sightings and strange events. As an adult Mark began his career as a staff physicist with Rockwell International in their defense communications division. He was ultimately responsible for designing interfaces for the new Air Force One fleet of aircraft, systems which had to be impervious to Soviet surveillance techniques. All of his designs passed their NSA tests with perfect scores, and the technology he developed still flies on the Air Force One fleet today. In 1989, his career took a sharp turn from the technical side towards the business side by entering the semiconductor industry as an applications engineer. After 8 years and three companies, he co-founded Summit Microelectronics in 1997, developing the world's first programmable analog ICs. Summit had many successes, but one he was particularly proud of was the introduction of the first USB charging chips for use in cell phones and other handheld devices, thus ushering in the era of universal charging. Summit was acquired by Qualcomm, but the Summit division of Qualcomm invented the Quick Charge fast-charging technology which is used on 90% of Android devices worldwide today. He left Qualcomm in 2018 and has recently formed a new company, EnScientia, LLC, which promotes the integrity of scientific research.
