Where can I find out about this?
Last night I woke up at 3 am...couldn't sleep...looked out
my french doors and saw a bright light...I thought it was
a shooting star, but it got brighter and brighter.
Never saw anything in the sky that bright.
It fell right thru the sky to the horizon.
I'm in CT...any one know where I can find out about this?
Thanks and Good Morning!

3. ??? Busy month set for stargazers
I don't think this is it but something You may like to know!!

December is a special month for Mars. The Red Planet reaches its peak on Christmas Eve when it is opposite the sun and closest to Earth, appearing larger than it will in the next nine years.

A big, bright moon, though, will affect the view of the planet on Christmas Eve.

The Geminid meteor shower peaks on Dec. 14, with as many as 100 meteors per hour or more arriving after midnight. The meteors appear to come from the constellation Gemini. Unlike most meteors, the Geminids are not associated with a comet. They seem to be linked to Phaethon, an asteroid that crosses the orbit of Earth.

4. I always watch the sky...
it's so beautiful...
Naw, that wasn't it...
This thing fell, getting brighter and brighter...
Any comets around? But I've seen comets b/4 and this
seemed more like a asteroid entering the atmosphere
and burning up...or perhaps space junk?
Usually you don't think these things get verry bright...
This was Bright!
Maybe I saw my first UFO!!

5. Hi buttercup Mc Toots and friends, this is an interesting story.
Hi, this is an interesting story, the perfect place where I can share 7 proverbs for the wise!

7 Things I have Scientifically learned (experienced),(discovered) and broke-through, which is my wisdom to all! I am your guest!


In the Name of Allah the most Gracious the most Merciful.
Salaam aleykum warah matulahi wa barakatuh (peace and security).
I would like to share 7 wisdom quotes with my follow human beings, and I believe they are a key to successes.
#1."Let us Ask our Lord what ever we want, with sincere heart and he will grant our request as quickly as we can recognize that this was what you have asked our Lord. Allah answers the prayers of the pious and his true believers".
#2. "If we just take a break,relax our mind and soul, then think positively; we will come up with ocean of ideas to solve our own and mankind's problems".
#3."Bad habits, such as cigarettes, Alcohols and drugs are the products of evil Magicians in their sorcery operations against mankind. So mankind treat, and see those products as what they are (they are our enemies). They are made to make us absent-minded and think way below our ability".
#4. " In our actions: Good deeds are our friends eternally, and bad deeds are our eternal enemies. It is our choice to make more friends or enemies. I advice mankind and Jinn to take good actions in every situation, so we can succeed in all fields".
#5. " In reality: Anger will stop us from accomplishing our goals, where patience allows us to reach our plans. Therefore persevere patience and you will shine".
#6. "Let us not call an evil person by his group, religion, nation, tribe, and family name.! If we call him by one of the above names, we are in fact aiding the evil. Let us isolate the evil, and call him by his own name and kindly ask him to change his behavior. and we have just got rid off an evil person and got a good one".
#7." If we die and come back before we are taken to our eternal home; we won't notice any difference from our earlier stage, even if we were awoke, unless people or our creator informs us that we were dead and resurrected.so people misunderstood death, death is leaving this world to either heaven or hell, and as simple as going from one place to another one. Therefore being on the transportation to the eternal home and getting off the transportation to stay the temporary home, won't make us any different from those who weren't on the transportation, except we have learned how it feels to be on the transportation. The worse thing that can happen to us is, when someone try to send us to the eternal home and fails, they have not sent us to home but they have harmed us, and the other part is when our loved ones miss us when we are in Paradise or in hell."
Note: All but # four are from the last four hours, and #4 is from December 2006.
Salaam aleykum warah matulahi wa barakatuh (peace and security).
Sincerely,
Abdifatah Suleiman Musse

11. Ret5ht, I hope this will furnish it.
Edited on Wed Dec-05-07 10:02 AM by theguidedone
can you furnish the data sets from your experiments?

The serpents toungues were red and pointy
But they were wearing very cool shoes
Who wouldn't wanna sell their soul? -CVB

Hi, Ret5ht thank you for the question. Your question will help people understand more about what I am talking about. Thank you so much once again.

#1. Each time I ask the creator for a certain thing sincerely, he answers me and I find what I have asked very quickly as long as they are something beneficial. for example it was very hard for me to be a true follower of the creator and I finally surrendered myself to him and asked him for guidance, I found myself being obedient and following the creator's Message in 3 months, if I furnish it further it was not easy for me to pray 5 times a day and now I find it easy to do it, and that is the key for being closer the creator, I ask my Lord whatever I need such as wisdom, knowledge, health, peace and so on, and if I need a certain message I ask the creator to show it to me in a dream since I am not able to hear his response in direct communications, and believe it or not he does answer me and gave me the message as I asked.

#2. If we sit down, and take a big breathe , relax our mind, we will discharge any stress or bad feelings we had. and if we continue to do that, we will not only discharge the stress and the bad feelings we had but be inspired with new positive thoughts about our own situations, for example: if we were dealing with bad habits such as cigarettes, alcohols, and drugs which are key to making people inactive and absent-minded, now we can think about how much those bad habits harm our health, finance, relationships, dignity, learning and our over all activities, when we realize how much bad habits harm us, we will then come to a conclusion that those things are bad for us and we must stop them, and us we kick off the bad habits we will experience a dramatic change in our over all intelligence, we will be more active in all fields, health, relationships, finance, critical thinking in education, working as well us managing our time wisely. this is were we will experience the findings of the cigarettes, alcohols, and drugs and how much sorcery work they are, if we do not want to fall in those categories we should stay away from those major bad habits which affect our societies in great number today.

#4 " good deeds are good for us and bad deeds are bad for us" if we take care of ourselves, kick off all bad habits learn as much as we can in all fields of knowledge, take care of our children, wife/husband and our whole family, as well as be nice to the people we deal with daily, we will find our selves in eternal success. and to the contrast if we do not take care of ourselves, befriend bad habits, learn none (not even how to be social friendly), be bad raw model for our children, have bad relationship with our wive/husbands and our whole family, as well as deal ignorantly with people with daily, then we will find ourselves in stressful and bad situations internally.

#5. "anger will make us lose and patience will make us win" for example: I had an interview for a customer service position with a big and high paying job, the Human Resource Manager asked me a Questions which its purpose was to see if I was patient or not., " Abdifatah how many times do you take shower a week, how many times do you brush your teeth? This is legal questions if the position requires a very good personal hygiene, after I answered the questions, the HR again try to confirm my patience and tells me to wait for while because he/she has to do something (testing me), the HR stays in the same room and sits the same chair next to me, where he/she was interviewing me. and looks around and looks me, relaxes, and waits for my reactions. which is also legal. so how I behave in those two patience testings questions will fail me or pass me to meet my goals, anger and impatience= failure and patience= success.

#6. Isolate the criminal doer in a group, religion, nation, tribe, and family by naming him with his own personal name, if we name him by his bigger name of group, religion, nation, tribe, and family, then we are only spreading the problem till it becomes big problem where our peaceful groups, religions, nations, tribes, and families fight for the problem caused by one criminal. where we could isolate him and talk to him kind or by either punishing him with international law or by stop him before he does further criminal activity, in that cause we are living in a peaceful world.

#7. Death means leaving this world to the eternal world, death does not mean being destroyed and become nothing. The purpose of live is to live in eternal happiness in the heavens. and before that happens everyone will be tested. The purpose of this temporary world is to be tested if we are either same as the original sinner or not who disobeyed the creator in paradise. I think the Creator does not want creations that will disobey him the heavens. he created this world to learn about and test each one of us before they are admitted to the heavens. most the creations are obedient and just all they need is little teaching And guidance but the real course is on very few creatures of human beings, devils and the original sinner Satan. I hope I clearly furnished experiment.

8. I saw what people said later was a meteor
But this just went straight over the tops of a grove of trees. It was orangish yellow. It did a couple of curly cues and gradually getting lower and lower as it went til it dropped behind the trees. Everyone, newspapers and radio I called said it was probably a meteor. I never did hear from anybody else. And my friends and relatives all asked what I had been drinking. I really don't drink, so to everyone else, it was a big joke. But like this poster, I know what I saw. So I just shut up, because they all thought it was funny.

10. I once saw the most amazing light show in the sky, later to find out that it was a satellite that
had fell out of orbit and had returned to earth as space debris.

This may be a possibility.
