Issues: Empowering Girls
"I call on all countries to take urgent and strong measures to protect the human rights of women and girls."
-Michelle Bachelet, Executive Director, UN Women, 24 September 2012
A child is born. After three months, her mother stops breastfeeding her. At meal times, she is fed last and least and thus, will be permanently stunted. At age six, instead of being sent to school, she is taught how to milk a cow and plant crops. At age 10, she will walk five miles, alone, every day, carrying 40 lb water jugs. At age 12, while on one of these solo walks, she is subject to a violent encounter. To avoid public shame, she is married to her attacker. By age 13, this undereducated, undernourished girl is a mother. When her daughter is three months old, she stops breastfeeding her and at mealtimes, she feeds her daughter last and least. The cycle of malnutrition and inequality continues. But it doesn't have to.
When a girl has the opportunity to be educated and healthy, not only does she benefit, society as a whole benefits. Educated girls marry later, have healthier children and take an active role in their communities to ensure the rights of other women are upheld.
Read on to learn more about the state of girls in the world. Then, together with your family, friends and communities, make a commitment to stand with these girls and fight for their rights.
- A baby girl is breastfed six to eight weeks less than a baby boy. Nearly one million child deaths could be prevented each year if girls were exclusively breastfed during their first six months of life.1
- Half of all stunting happens in utero as a result of an undernourished mother. 2
- In India, 47% of all adolescent girls are underweight.3
Children and Marriage
- Nearly half of all girls in developing countries become mothers before they are 18 years old.4
- 50,000 girls die annually during childbirth, making it the number one killer of girls between age 15-19.4
- 1 out of every 3 girls is married by the age of 18. 4
- 36 million primary school aged girls are not enrolled in school.5
- On average, girls receive only six years of formal education in their lives.5
- Every year of secondary school a girl attends elevates her future income by 10-20%.6
- A child born to a mother who can read is 50% more likely to survive past age five.6
- Improved education of girls alone was responsible for a 43% total reduction in undernutrition across 63 countries between 1971 and 1995.7
- When given equal access to resources and education, women can bring down the number of hungry people worldwide by 16%.8
What We Do
- Celebrate and empower girl children in Bangladesh. In 2000, THP catalyzed the formation of a 300-organization alliance that, each year, honors National Girl Child Day, a day that gathers tens of thousands of people in events focused on eradicating all forms of discrimination against girl children. The alliance functions as the National Girl Child Advocacy Forum, with activities throughout the year, and THP-Bangladesh serves as the secretariat. In 2012, for the first time, the United Nations will recognize International Day of the Girl around the world.
- Promoting Equal Education for Girls. Animators across our Program Countries run educational campaigns to promote childhood primary school enrollment, especially for girl children. All children enrolled in our epicenter nursery schools in Africa are guaranteed access to a full nutritious meal every day they are in attendance. In 2011, more than half of the nearly 2,500 children enrolled in the nursery school program were girls. Moreover, our Microfinance Program in Africa includes a policy that requires participants to enroll their daughters in school.
- Maternal and childhood health monitoring. Throughout our programs, women participate in educational workshops to learn about the importance of maternal health and caring for their children. Elected women leaders in India ensure that government-run maternal and child health centers are functioning effectively and reaching the community. In Africa, children are weighed and monitored at our epicenter health clinics. In 2011, more than half of the 9,300 children whose health was monitored, more than half of them were girls.
- Ending child marriage, dowry and other harmful cultural practices. Animators throughout our programs run awareness campaigns to put an end to violence against girls and discriminatory practices like child marriage, dowry and female genital mutilation.

WITNESS TO WANAQUE: THE GREATEST "MASS UFO SIGHTING" NEVER TOLD BY Anthony Bragalia
In the mid-1960s a UFO terrified a small New Jersey town. On a clear and cold mid-winter night, the community was infiltrated and "beamed upon" by rays that shot downward from a brilliant and eerie object. Over the decades the event has seemed to have faded from view for reasons that remain very murky. There are those who are no doubt very happy about this. But a closer examination of the event today reveals it to be the most credible and exceptional "mass sighting" of a UFO anywhere in all of human history. The sheer number of highly credible individuals who reported the sighting astounds.
More significantly, the event was apparently photographed by the frightened. These extremely rare, little-seen images are controversial, and they are shown here.
Digging deeper this author has found records indicating that the US Government was concerned about 'imposter military men' that had infiltrated the community to suppress or dissuade them from reporting anything further on the incident. This may be another reason why this great mass UFO sighting is not so well known by the masses (or even many in the UFO research community.)
Finally, this author has also located and contacted an original witness from when the event occurred. In retirement he reluctantly confirms that the object that he saw (and remembers well, even 45 years later) was not of Earth.
On January 11, 1966 in Wanaque, New Jersey (located in Passaic County) a bizarre and disturbing event began to unfold over this town of less than ten thousand. Most of the activity took place around the Wanaque Dam and the community's key water resources. The event lasted about two and a half hours (6:20-8:58 PM) and it was seen by dozens of individuals. The police were flooded with incoming reports on the aerial object from around a 20-mile radius.
The UFO was reported as:
- Very white but occasionally changing colors, including red, blue and green
- Exceedingly bright and shining, but not flickering or twinkling
- Much larger than any star, at times appearing to assume an irregular egg-shaped, fuzzy structure (and described as perhaps the size of about "10 bright stars clumped together")
- Gliding "low and oddly" across the vast frozen and semi-frozen waters, seemingly in a deliberate "pattern" (described by some as a circular pattern and sometimes maneuvering side to side and up and down.)
- Flying as low as 250 fifty feet above to as high as 1000 feet above witnesses
- Moving at moderate to fast speeds in complete silence (with no sound of motor or engine) and occasionally hovering or floating for periods of time
- Finally, zooming out of view at extreme speed after its "survey" of the area
But by far and away the most amazing and important feature reported about the UFO is this:
During the duration of the sighting, the object would periodically shoot large beams of light from a porthole down towards the ice near the Wanaque Dam and the town's reservoir and water resource facilities. The beams would then create holes in the ice as if they were burning through the freeze of winter with precision and ease! How mere "light" could do this (unless it was a laser or unknown energetic technology) is not understood. Sgt. Ben Thompson (see list of witnesses below) reported the UFO's strange ability to suck together tree tops and to cause a rise in the reservoir's water level.
Scores and scores of people from the town said that they saw parts of the event or the entire episode. These people include the Mayor, several Councilmen, numerous Law Enforcement personnel, the Reservoir Police and even a high-ranking Catholic nun.
This author has reviewed what little historical literature is available on the sighting. This includes a review of papers and other periodicals from 1966-1967 including: The New York Journal-American; the APRO Bulletin; NICAP Notes by Otto Binder, 1966; UFO Investigator Vol. III No. 6 Jan-Feb 1966 and area NJ and Tri-State newspapers (i.e. Newark News and the Star Ledger.) The list of key witnesses (included in brief interviews in newspapers at the time) are:
- Mayor Harry T. Wolfe and his Son Billy
- Councilmen Warren Hagstrom, Arthur Barton and John Shuttle
- Civil Defense Administrators Bentley Spencer and Richard Vrooman
- Chief of Police Floyd Elson
- Officer George Dyckman
- Patrolman Joe Cisco
- Sgt. Bobby Gordon (Pompton Lakes Police)
- Sgts. Ben Thompson and David Sisco
- Patrolmen Edward Nestor and Jack Wardlaw
- Reservoir Police & Personnel George Destito, Charles Theodora, Fred Steines
- The Mother Superior of a Local Convent
Other witnesses named in the Press at the time include two teenagers (Sloat and Melegrae) and Newark College of Engineering student John DiGiamoco as well as some of the wives and children of those listed above. It was reported that by night's end, the Police Department had received "dozens" of phone call reports of the object from different locations and vantage points from surrounding areas. The early reports had apparently instigated town officials to convene at the Dam to see the sight for themselves. Of course not everyone saw all of the more spectacular aspects of the incident, with some only reporting less impressive "anomalies" depending on when they arrived, from where they viewed.
Key quotes about the event that I have found by combing though and culling reports from newspapers in the days following the event include:
Mayor Wolfe, who would characterize the whole thing by saying that "the phenomena was terribly strange."
Officer George Dyckman: "I've never seen anything like it in my life."
Reservoir employee Fred Steines stated: "A bolt of light shot down from it as if attracted to the water, like a beam emitted from a portal."
Councilman Warren Hagstrom: "We got goose bumps all over when we saw where the hole was."
Patrolman Joe Cisco (recorded on police radio): "Something landed in front of the dam. Something's burning a hole in the ice! Something with a bright light on it, going up and down!"
The extraordinary and rare photograph featured at the top of this article is said to be an actual image taken of the Wanaque UFO. It appears to be emitting a downward beam of "structured" light.
The beam is large, dense and "engineered" (as shown in its extreme angularity.) You can view an enlargement of the UFO/Beam photo here:

The light beam was said to have been "energetic" and could pierce or burn through the ice. Others saw the beam's reflection on the ice and only that it was somehow impacting its surface. None of those who photographed the Wanaque UFO and beams wished to have their names publicly identified. Some of the photographs found their way to the late UFO researcher August C. Roberts.
Over 45 years after the original event, this author has located an original witness to Wanaque found mentioned in early-published reports. The witness (who prefers not to be publicly identified) replied it that though he is not 100% certain, it does appear "very similar" to what he has seen as a young man those many years ago.
Given the sheer number of highly reputable people who saw this event, it is inconceivable that more photographs were not taken. It is perhaps as great a mystery as the UFO itself: How could an event witnessed by scores of people for over two hours not have resulted in far more captured images of the craft? This is particularly odd given that many of the witnesses were law enforcement officials on patrol. This author has reason to believe that many Wanaque UFO photos (and perhaps film) were suppressed or remain in private, nervous hands to this very day.
Series of Five Photos Taken at Wanaque and Published by Dell
Click here for photos
Dell Publishing in NY (now Bantam/Random House) received a series of 5 black and white photos after the Wanaque event claiming to be of the craft and beam seen there. The submitter wished no acknowledgement and did not seek any compensation. Dell published the photos and, accompanying them, a very brief article in the 1967 issue of its publication, UFO Reports.
The photograph of the UFO and beam featured at the beginning of this article appears to be what could be yet another photo of this Dell series, but not included in the article. It appears similar to the fifth photo appearing in the Dell article, but it also reveals more view and detail (including an "interaction" between the water and the bottom of the beam.)
I am not aware of the location of the negatives (given they exist) nor the identity of the photographer/s who took these intriguing images. Though I cannot vouch for their authenticity, at least one of the witnesses contacted thought that there was a good similarity to what was seen at Wanaque (see interview below.)
They could though be "fakes" made after the event to simulate what had happened at Wanaque. Or perhaps they are of a similar event.
Or perhaps even still, they are genuine. They were sent to private researcher August Roberts and to Dell anonymously. They wanted to get them out, but perhaps feared potential retribution or unwanted attention. I intend on locating other of the known witnesses to see if they will or will not collaborate the photos as possible images of what was really seen at Wanaque.
This author has learned that unknown men posing as military officials descended upon Wanaque in the period after the sighting to intimidate and dissuade talk about the UFO. And the source for this is the U.S. Pentagon itself! Found buried in the defunct civilian UFO research organization's publication APRO Bulletin (Jan-Feb, 1967) is a detailing of these "MIB" visits.
"Men dressed in uniforms or bearing credentials from government agencies have been silencing witnesses to the UFO at Wanaque. According to Pentagon spokesman Colonel George P. Freeman, 'These men are not connected to the Air Force in any way.' He cited a recent case in which the police officers and other witnesses at sightings in Wanaque, NJ and told them they had seen nothing and should not discuss the incident. Whoever he was, he wasn't' from the Air Force,' Freeman stated."
This helps to account for the lack of subsequent details or real investigation and the apparent absence of photographs of the event taken by those who would let their names be used.
According to a 1966 civilian UFO research organization NICAP report by John Pagano found by this author, on January 11, 1966 at 7:45 p.m. – on the very same day and at the very same time- as the Wanaque, NJ sighting, another, similar sighting was taking place in Myerstown, PA, about two hundred miles from Wanaque. A nurse and others together in a car saw a luminous disc, like one saucer inverted on top of another, at relatively close range as it hovered above the car. After about five minutes, the object suddenly accelerated and sped away. The precise timing of the two sightings at the same time, the "luminosity" of the object, its being seen at close range and hovering – as well as its abrupt acceleration away - are all uncannily reminiscent of Wanaque.
On October 15, 1966, less than a week after the original Wanaque sighting, Police Chief John Casazza with the Reservoir Force said that he and his friend Bob Dexter witnessed a strange sight in the air at about 10:40 at night behind some hills on the dam. According to an interview he conducted with early researcher Lloyd Mallan, he said, "it was shaped like an ellipse, but was flatter on the bottom and more round at the top. In length, it appeared three times larger than the Moon. It gave off kind of a light. White light. It was not flashing or blinking. Casazza send the craft was noiseless and moved slowly and then very fast out of view.
According to November 1966 issue of UFO Investigator from civilian research organization NICAP, later in the year in Wanaque (on October 10, 1966 at 9:15 PM) police officers observed a spherical object with a protrusion on one side emitting an extremely bright blinding light that lit up the terrain (environmental illumination.) The UFO hovered and moved around erratically at high speeds, making sharp turns and leaving a misty trail in its wake when it moved. Even the intervening decades Wanaque has had other similar aerial anomalies involving very brightly lit objects, including one the was reportedly filmed in 1992.
This author located and spoke with a first-hand witness to the event who was a young Wanaque man in 1966 who was mentioned in the news at the time. This witness, not wishing disruption or re-involvement four and a half decades hence, agreed to talk on the condition of anonymity. Excerpts of what he said recently to me are telling:
"I remember the thing very well. I still do not know what it was. I think about it from time to time, but it's no use because it doesn't bring me any closer to knowing what it was."
"Maybe things that aren't from here aren't meant to be understood by us here." He added, "ask anyone who will tell you , it was not a helicopter or something astronomical. It was…not…from our military or something we misidentified. It was a UFO, from somewhere else."
"The beams or ray thing that came out from the bottom of the glob (globe?) was the thing that got to me. It made the light cut the ice out. It frightened us kids. And I'm sure the adults. Because we don't have anything like that even today."
"The adults didn't really speak much about it after the initial thing that I could tell. I'd talk about it with my friends some time later and one of them told me that people came around to not say anything."
(On the emailed alleged photo of the Wanaque UFO and beam): "I am not 100%. I saw it from a different perspective. And not that close up or with a camera lens. But it is very similar to certain times when I saw it. The beam or huge ray, it kind of changed shape and the main body had a haze . Now that you are mentioning it, I have always wondered why none of the adults there, like the police, released any photos. They had to have had them taken. And the Reservoir police had cameras too. It went on for so long-people could have gone and come back to get one."
Perhaps additional witnesses will be found to help clarify the mysterious night all those years ago. Maybe they can recall if these images remind them of what they saw.
Though the US military denied having knowledge of the Wanaque affair, this is directly contradicted by Sgt Bobby Gordon of the Pompton Lakes Police Force, who was an eye-witness. About 15 minutes after the "main event" and the craft had left, Gordon said, he saw the abrupt and mysterious appearance of seven helicopters and 10 or so high-performance jets over the Wanaque Reservoir. Gordon believes that these overflights were no coincidental to the sightings of the strange UFO. Gordon said that he did not report this to the Air Force as he said "I had enough aggravation on my job, so that I don' have to go outside to get it."
1960s UFO researcher Llloyd Mallan conducted a private investigation of the incident. He called numbers of officials to see if they would lay claim to the overflight of US aircraft in the wake of the Wanaque sighting. The U.S. Navy, FAA, US Coast Guard, Wright Patterson Air Force Base and other Air Bases and the US Coast Guard all denied knowledge of any such flights. Mallan believed that the military scrambled to investigate and to learn more about a craft that was not their own.
And some of skeptical inclination have offered up several ill-conceived and far-reaching "answers" or solutions to the true nature of the Wanaque sightings. Though few if any proffer a hoax explanation, some have said it was:
A Balloon
McGuire AFB in Wrightstown speculated it was a weather balloon that traveled from Kennedy International Airport, which the Pentagon initially agreed with. Later McGuire said it was not and the Pentagon offered a new explanation
Venus and Jupiter
The Pentagon later offered that these planets were in alignment creating a strange effect
Helicopters or other Aircraft
Stewart AFB in Newburgh, NY said it was a helicopter with a powerful beacon on a night mission. They later "soft-pedaled" on this explanation, likely realizing all of the other conflicting "real reasons" given for the sighting by other officials
Ball Lightning
"Ball lightning" was offered as an explanation to Wanaque when the question was posed to arch-skeptic Phil Klass by a researcher. But ball lightning is a very rare form of lightning. It can appear white, spherical and luminous and even pierce window pane. However the duration of the phenomenon is typically no longer that two minutes –not two hours like the sighting at Wanaque. And ball lighting forms are typically no more than eight inches. At the extreme outset they have been seen briefly at a meter or so in diameter- but not several feet in diameter, as at Wanaque. And the craft at Wanaque remained "formed" with fuzzy "structure" whereas ball lighting rather quickly "peters out" into nothingness. And ball lightning cannot float, dart, travel in circles and up and down in a pattern. Lastly, ball lightning cannot shoot sharp beams out of itself, emitting beam-like structures. As a 10 year old boy, this author experienced ball lightning. My mother was on one side of the living room and I on the other. A terrific summer storm was raging. Then, out of nowhere, a "energy ball" of light about the size of a small fist pierced through our picture window and streaked in an instant to a light socket, which sparked and burned. No way was this like Wanaque.
Every single witness ever contacted disagrees with all of these "explanations." All say that none in any way account for what was viewed at relatively close range for a long time. They insist that it was not a manmade craft (it was silent and blinding, making impossible maneuvers) or a celestial body (though it was the size of "10 stars") nor was it ball lightening (though it shot from its underside strange, large and powerful light beams.
We have learned many things about Wanaque:
One truth is that there was very little meaningful investigation done at the time about this astounding aerial encounter. Project Blue Book and the Air Force did nothing substantial, if at all. Military or intelligence did not make contact with witnesses to conduct in-depth interviews and to perform on-site investigations (at least that we know of.) No one was officially dispatched to technically evaluate the UFO beam's impact on the ice. No water samples were taken, no deep-freeze divers were ordered down, and no radiation testing was conducted. Indeed the only ones that seemed interested were media, and then only briefly. And it was largely local coverage with limited follow-up and no real independent investigative reporting. It even had limited mention in the UFO press. It gets no mention at all in most all of the major UFO encyclopedias today for instance.
The other truth learned is that very large numbers of very credible people reported very identical things at the very same time. None of them has ever gained or sought any fame or reward for telling their piece of what they know.
And what else is known is that pictures that had to have been taken were never made openly public. Those that may have, as show here, unfortunately have no provenance. Others may have been suppressed or confiscated. The reason that this is so (and that even today why many are reticent to discuss the event in detail) is that some in the community were intimidated by real or imposter military authorities who warned them not to say much.
Finally we learn that if the craft that visited and brought rays down upon Wanaque was not military, nor any type of craft made by people, and not a stellar or atmospheric aberration. It hovered and maneuvered silently at will in a deliberate pattern. It was intelligently controlled. It blinded with its intense white and colored lights. It was amorphous, changing fuzzily from structure to energetic glob. It shot forth with precision some form of unusual light energy capable of piercing and carving winter ice. It entranced those who saw it. And then it left in a near instant. It was out of everyone's vision. But it would forever emblazon everyone's mind with the sight of the unearthly.
Indeed this "weirdness at Wanaque" was so alien that one can only conclude that it was just that…Alien.

I grew up about 5 miles from Wanaque and wasn't aware of this case until a year or so ago. I was 6 when it happened. Don't remember any mention of it while living in the area. It's obviously a great case and the lack of attention it's gotten is odd.ReplyDelete
There's a mountain ridge that separated my home town with the reservoir. From the top of that ridge you can easily see the Manhattan skyline to the southeast, so on the one hand it's close to NYC yet oddly remote because of the geography. The area is also a bit under 20 miles from the Indian Point nuke plant, which was the central point of the famous Hudson Valley case about 20 years later.

Hi Frank-ReplyDelete
Well what a very small world! And it is very odd that the case has been somewhat "buried." The witness I talked with was somewhat reluctant, and it definitely left an indelible impression on him. Maybe the rest of the townsfolk feel as he did that even after all these years they still do not have any idea what they saw. To continue to consider it just brings frustration...
Anthony Bragalia
Haha, well I haven't thought much about this for a long time but now that you mention it . . .ReplyDelete
The area was also home to a then active Nike missile base located near Campgaw Mountain which was just 5 miles east of the reservoir.
I ginned up a map of the area:
Great report Anthony!ReplyDelete
I too never heard of the Wanaque N.J. mass sighting! What a fascinating multiple witness account! That water surely had significant meaning to the craft.
Those helos and jets were searching for something shortly after the sighting no matter that the military denied sending anyone up.
And the photos, what few exist in public, are excellent! I can imagine how startling it would be to see that, with the light beam cutting through the ice, in person.
~ Susan
If the event occurred in January 1966, the photos should have appeared in the press within a matter of days. They ought not to have taken over a year before first appearing in a magazine. It makes no sense.ReplyDelete
Likewise the extra photo, not included with the Dell pics, looks too artificial, probably a fake, and was photographed later, to add to the 'story'.
I suspect none of these photos have anything to do with the sighting, particularly as the identity of the photographer is unknown.

Oh, CDA! Please read the article again.ReplyDelete
The anonymous photos (as well as the lack of any others) shows that there was either a suppression of such images, or people were simply to fearful to get involved. Did you not read where the Pentagon was concerned about people posing as officers and intimidating witnesses?
August Roberts received the photos within weeks of the event. He elected to hold them until he learned more. So your comment, to me, is meaningless. The Zapruder film was not shown until 11 years after it was shot!
And your cries of "fake" are equally and utterly meaningless. I grant that they could be, but a "CDA say-so" is laughable as "evidence" of fraud. You have to do way better that that Christopher!
Anthony Bragalia
Interesting. Especially since the Great Northeast Blackout occurred just two months earlier on November 9, 1965. I believe there were reports of strange lights in the sky above some of the region's hydroelectric power plants (i.e., dams) just before and at the start of the blackout.ReplyDelete
"Men dressed in uniforms or bearing credentials from government agencies have been silencing witnesses to the UFO at Wanaque. According to Pentagon spokesman Colonel George P.

Wasn't the interviewer John Keel? Not the best source for accurate information.
"This witness, not wishing disruption or re-involvement four and a half decades hence, agreed to talk on the condition of anonymity."
Interesting that you would rely on an anonymous source. I came across a quote on such matters:
Al Neuharth (founder of USA Today) said:
"It's so simple. Most anonymous sources often tell more than they know. Reporters who are allowed to use such sources sometimes write more than they hear. Editors too often let them get away with it. Result: Fiction gets mixed with fact."
There are some problems with this photo. It was supposedly taken at night, yet the forest is sharp and fairly well exposed. This would require a tripod and a long exposure. The reservoir is dark, yet it was supposed to be covered with ice. (The ground under the trees appears to be covered with snow, however, so at least it was approximately the right time of year.)ReplyDelete
There are actually two clear beams of light, which are more transparent at the bottom than the top, yet which do not seem to diminish in intensity nearly as much as they should as they spread out. The beams seem to simply end rather than illuminating the reservoir - in fact, the darkest part of the picture is directly beneath the beams. The left side of the craft is indistinct and does not match the right side, yet there is little evidence of motion blur, indicating a short exposure or a static subject (more likely the latter given this is supposed to be a night shot and it has a properly-exposed background.)
On the whole it looks like a fake produced by dodging a print (using an opaque or partially transparent object to reduce exposure in a defined area of photographic paper.) There is a faint line coming form the 4 o'clock position on the craft which may be the support wire used to hold the cutout used to do the dodging.

Hi WH-ReplyDelete
Thanks for your review of the photo. Of course, as I have pointed out repeatedly, I am not "wed" to their authenticity.
That said, let me address your points:
In January in the Northeast US (I am guessing you are from the UK with your use of the the word "dodgy") both moving and still water and bodies of water can be in various states of "freeze". Some water can be "slushy", some water can appear solid but really be just a very thin crust of ice, some water is partially frozen, and still other bodies of water in winter are as solid as a rock and many inches thick. One thing is certain, at night, it is very difficult to determine the existence or extent of water, or ice, or ice-water, especially at a distance.
The possible 'support wire' you see, I do not. I see a faint scratch perhaps of some sort from a half-century old photo. Even if it were a wire, I can't see how it would be able to 'support' the structure given its position and thinness.
Your mentions of motion blur, the craft being indistinct, etc.. - we must bear in mind that this image was taken by a likely hurried and excited person, shivering from exposure. The camera used was likely an inexpensive one made in 1965 or likely prior using home-use black and white film. This was of course common equipment for suburban Americans at the time. But the quality had drawbacks and photos from this time lack clarity that causes difficulty in any kind analysis.
More importantly, as the witness mentioned, "The beam, or huge ray, it kind of changed shape and the main body had a haze." I believe that these kind of characteristics may account for your concerns about blur and the craft's lack of distinct edge. There may even be a plasma or ionization phenomena associated with the craft.

The lack of photos is easily explainable. I was 21 at the time and owned a camera. The popular films at that time were Kodak color slide and print films with ASA's of 64 and 100. They produced excellent pics on bright sunny days, but were useless at night.ReplyDelete
In northern IL where I live, at that time and date it would have been totally dark outside. Any picture attempt would require a tripod and a time exposure. With a moving object, the time exposure would produce nothing but a blur.
And why didn't someone get a camera? Years ago I and 5 other people witnessed a UFO on a bright sunny day outside my house. Not for one second did any of us consider leaving to get a camera. And risk missing the most amazing sight of our lives? You're kidding, right?
Thanks for the report AJB.
This case is all brand new to me....ReplyDelete
I just can't believe I've never heard or read about it.
I am so very intrigued by this story....This should be big news....It's outstanding...there's another one too I had not heard about...the Bob White case....but this was a real find....
Another case with a largish number (35) of witnesses over a period of several hours, but in this case on 3 CONSECUTIVE DAYS was the Rev Gill case in Papua in June 1959.ReplyDelete
Again no pictures taken, although the sightings occurred, in part, during early evening in summer. At one time Rev. Gill went in to dinner with the UFO still hovering over the mission station! And humanoid figures were seen as well.
Beats anything at Wanaque.
Here is one of several links on the Bob White case that I had mentioned...ReplyDelete
I'm sure some of you are probably familiar with it...
I had that UFO Reports magazine at the time. I always wondered why I never heard about this case more!ReplyDelete

But this was likely b&w film. TriX at ASA 400 was available. The image is cropped since it doesn't conform to any common film-size aspect ratio. The closest commonly used would be a 35mm camera. Of course, it could be cropped severely and originate from a medium format Brownie, but TriX was available in that size film, too.

'Dodge and Burn' is standard darkroom practice. By 'dodge' EH means a portion of the negative received less light from the enlarger because something (usually one's hand or a piece of cardboard on a stick) was put between the image and the enlarger's light in order to enhance contrast by keeping the part dodged lighter than the parts of the image not dodged.
I agree with you that the mark EH refers to is likely a scratch. No way to come close to certainty considering the quality of the image available.

This seems to be an error. Do you mean January 15?
EH wrote: "The reservoir is dark, yet it was supposed to be covered with ice"
The photo could be of the Oct 10 sighting (which Tony refers to in his article), not January's.
Here's the AP, dateline Wanaque, Oct 11, 1966:
"Sgt Ben Thompson of the Wanaque Resevoir Police said...the object maneuvered, stirring up brush, and water in the resevoir."

I grew up in Wanaque. My father was a volunteer fireman for the Wanaque Fire Dept. The fireman were burning Christmas trees in the sandpit the night the object appeared over the resevoir. The sandpit was located across from the dam (about 1/2 mile away over dry land. My dad and the other firemen saw the object. Officer Cisco and my father we great friends and my siblings and I grew up listening to the ufo stories. I spoke to my dad today and he says that he was not aware of any type of cover up.

I came across these posts out of curiosity just surfing around because I was at one of the sightings mentioned in this article. Specifically, I was at one of the Oct 1966 sightings with two friends while taking a break from college studies. We had read about the sightings the day before and went to the reservoir area in the early evening just to see what was going on - but never expecting to see anything. It was a clear brisk night with the stars clearly visible. We were parked on the shoulder of Greenwood Lake Tpke north of the Skyline Dr intersection that is directly adjacent to the reservoir in Ringwood, which borders on Wanaque. There were people in other cars parked along the shoulder obviously there for the same reason - to see if any UFOs showed up.ReplyDelete
We had been there for about 20-30 minutes just sitting in the car listening to the radio when we heard some parked car doors open and close and heard a girl scream (not very loud though). We got out of the car to see what was going on and didn't see anything at first (the road was winding and heavily treed). After about 10 seconds or so we saw a spherical light that was maybe 4-5 feet in diameter about 20 feet moving into sight above the tree line. The light was fluorescent colored but not as bright as a fluorsecent light bulb. It's shape wass well defined, not fuzzy, it made no sound, did not flicker, and did not change color. It moved in a direct line south toward Wanaque at maybe between 5-10mph. We watched it until it passed over a long area of trees where we could no longer see it. Please note that this object had no resemblance to the picture of the UFO with the beam shown in this article.
I didn't think what we saw was a big deal because of the size of the object and that it could not possibly be manned. Many years later I saw the movie Close Encounters that showed those small white spheres. That was a shock because what we saw was very similar to those white spheres with regard to size and light intensity. We did not see swamp gas or a baloon or anything I've read that would explain it. I saved the newspaper article that covered the Wanaque sighting with an account of the sightings and interviews with local authorities who also witnessed the object. If anyone has a genuine interest in the newspaper article I'll email it to you... send request to firstname.lastname@example.com.
Thanks so much for this information Anonymous! It really helps to corroborate others who reported seeing a similar thing...I will email you privately as I would most certainly love to read the article..ReplyDelete

I and my wife, after reading of reports in all the papers, drove to the reservoir on what turned out to be the day after the LAST reported event. While driving around the reservoir ( perhaps 20 miles) we saw several military radar vehicles parked on the perimeter.ReplyDelete
As I remember, they were 2 1/2 ton types.
This was just a few months after the Canadian military involvment with two UFo vehicles, traveling in the air and then underwater down into the Maine coast ( on tracks)

I remember people with telescopes and camerasReplyDelete

Hi Anonymous who knew Joe Cisco...ReplyDelete
Did Joe ever discuss his UFO experience or those of others? Did he ever mention pictures of the UFO having been taken? What do you think of the ones featured in this article?

Back in 66' folks didn't have camera's in every pocket. They were big and bulky and put away and used for special occasions by the average person. I know the PD or Reservoir PD did not carry around camera's at the time. Also only a professional camera back then would have captured any kind of night photo regardless of the brightness of the object. I grew up in Wanaque and remember all this very well.ReplyDelete

I lived in Wanaque for 33 years. Although I was not born when this happened I have seen things in the sky and strange creatures I could not explain. There is a so called vortex in Wanaque were these beings come through. The vortex is a few miles wide and the portal can open anywhere between.ReplyDelete

Anyone have any clear pictures or negatives of the UFO and or picture of the UFO beaming a light down on the ice? How is it that there are no actual real photos around? I doubt they all have been taken by the military or so called men in black.ReplyDelete

I saw a similar object in S.E. night sky in the 1960's over Media Pa. I too was a young boy. About 30 people were watching it for 30 or so min. Then a couple of FBI or CIA agents came, and told us we were looking at weather phenomenon, and go back in our houses. And like magic, we did.ReplyDelete
Hello Anthony,ReplyDelete
The article on the Wanque UFO was great. It brought back many memories of a bunch of us guys going to Jersey to see this UFO that a few of my friends witnessed the night before (Jan 11, 1966) at the Wanaque Reservoir in New Jersey.
What happened was on the day of January 11, 1966 a few of my friends played hooky to go skiing at Holiday mountain in the Catskills. On their way home, they go off of I 287 to get something to eat. Ray, the driver decided he would take a what he thought was a short cut home through Harriman State Park. Well you guessed it, he somehow made a wrong turn and wound up in north Jersey.
They said they were going south on Sloatsburg Rd and just as the came to the intersection of Greenwood Lake Turnpike, just hanging a few feet over the reservoir was this glowing what they described as a flying saucer just hanging over the ice shooting down what they said was some kind of a light beam to the ice.They said they weren't the only ones who saw this, there were two other cars pulled over watching this thing just hovering over the ice and directing a beam of light into it.
That's when Ray, made a U turn and got the hell out of there.
When they got back home to Yonkers (New York) Pete called me to tell me about what had happen to them. I would have never believed him if it wasn't for the eleven PM news cast that night. The reporter came on to tell about a number of people whom witnessed a UFO around the Wanque Reservoir earlier that evening. As soon as I heard that I called my friend Mickey and asked if he would drive up to Wanque after school and that I would pay for the gas and tolls. He was OK.
The next day right after school Mickey, Ray, John (Ray and John were the two guys who saw the UFO the night before) and myself made the hour trip to Wanaque. As we started coming down Sloatsburg Road, we started to see a lot of cars pulled over to the side of the road. We lucked out and found a spot and parked the car and started to walk with the rest of the crowd towards the reservoir. We didn't get too far when we were stopped by Military Police!
They had erected a barrier and directed every back to their cars and leave immediately or the vehicles would be impounded. As we started walking back, I could see beyond the roadblock were a number of military vehicles and personnel and they were from both the army and air force.
Unfortunately, we never got to see the UFO or the spot where Ray saw it beam down and melt the ice. But it was an experience I will never forget.
Again, thanks Anthony for bringing back some crazy memories.

I stumbled on this Wanaque ordeal searching for anything on a UFO sighting In High Crest Lake in West Milford. As a young 8 yr old boy, I observed something similar in the sky in the north part of the lake near the old lodge. I thought it was some cool helicopter or something, then realized it was not making any noise. I remember seeing lights along the lower edge changing colors and rotating at times. I never saw any light coming out of the bottom shining down. It appeared to vary in shape. I probably watched it for maybe 30 seconds and then ran like hell to the house to tell my family. They ran outside and saw it for an instant and it disappeared. I can't remember exactly when this occurred but I think it was in the fall of 1966, late afternoon/early evening. I never knew anyone else in the area that saw the same thing. The one thing I do remember was that the newspaper, I think it was the Paterson Morning Call, did report in the following days about numerous sightings and officials were saying it was a weather balloon but I know this was no balloon.ReplyDelete

10 Free Fast Public DNS Servers To Increase Internet Speed – 20130
10 Best Public DNS Servers List
DNS Servers does help optimize internet speed a little bit. Updating the Internet DNS server configuration will improve the performance of your Internet connection . Previously, I had written post on Finding the best dns servers based on your location.
Let me talk about the my ISP 's DNS server. BSNL is my internet service provider and it does suck. It works like the toys from china,you know what I mean . BSNL ' s ping is too high and their dns servers are the worst. Hence I always choose open DNS for my computer instead of the one provided by my ISP.
The basic task of DNS server is to translate host-names such as BleepingTech.com to IP addresses like 126.96.36.199. The reason it converts names into number is becuase computers can't read letters. Another important use of DNS is email routing.
Top Free Public DNS Servers list
Google public DNS server ip address
Open DNS offers DNS server that can block adult content as well. Its also called Open DNS Family Shield. To know more please sign up here.
Level3 dns servers gets routed to the nearest DNS server which is operated by Level3 communications. They are the major providers for most ISPs in the US.
It automatically blocks adult content on the internet by default. Even adult searches on google won't be allowed if you use Securly DNS
Using Norton DNS will block sites that have malware, spam,scam and phishing .
How to Setup or Change DNS Server IP addresses on your computer?
- Click the start button —> go to control panel
- Open network and sharing center
- Click on change adapter settings on the left
- Right click on local area connection –> Properties
- Highlight internet protocol version 4 and hit properties
- Select use the following DNS server addresses
In the proffered DNS server put 188.8.131.52 or any other public dns servers mentioned above. In the same manner enter the alternate dns server address.
Changing DNS server as per your operating System
Windows XP, Vista, 2000 / NT, 98, Windows 7, ME , Mac OS X Snow Leopard , OS X Leopard, OS 9, OS X Mountain Lion, OS X Lion, OS X Tiger, Ubuntu etc – Check here https://store.opendns.com/setup/computer/

I hope you enjoyed reading the article. To be honest the speed won't increase much but you will see the performance improvement for sure.

There's a Bookworm in this Apple
Kyle is a member of The Motley Fool Blog Network -- entries represent the personal opinion of the blogger and are not formally edited.
A few years ago someone asked me something that actually made me think for a few minutes. That's saying a lot, since my lack of a filter and proclivity for vomiting responses (rather than following an actual thought process) makes most people afraid to ask me questions. "If you could only own ONE stock, what would that be?"
That really made me think. I know of several people that only play one or two stocks, trading in certain buy and sell ranges with Apple (NASDAQ: AAPL) and Google, and similar holdings that sometimes swing in ranges that would make Tarzan squeamish. First, that takes a healthy amount of capital. Second, that also takes a good deal of patience and dependency on market swings.
Yes, there have been days when I root for storm clouds, downgrades, dogs and cats living together. So I root for panic every now and then. But I am beholden to nobody but myself. I report to no agency, no boss, so although it is in my own best interest to perform at a certain level, I can afford to have an entire year where my portfolio is covered in excrement. And there are times when I relish the fact that certain folks are "forced" to abandon ship. So I scoop up those holdings with a sizable spoon.
With the news that Apple is going to crowbar itself into the textbook industry, I revisit my same response to the question. If there was a cruel world where I could only own one stock, and I had to take all my eggs and corral them in one basket, I would have everything in Apple.
Of course, the immediate reaction was followed with, "So why do you have so many (expletive) stocks?" To which I responded, "Quiet you. At least my work attire doesn't include a paper hat."
I digress. Given the news that Apple is still in the business of innovating and hopefully relegating college "book pirates" to selling their school's hoodies, how does that benefit me, an individual investor? Remember how that worked out with the music industry? Pretty good, right? I'm pretty sure my son doesn't remember what a CD looks like. Ask yourself this question, when is the last time you strolled into Tower Records to buy a CD?
Now I want you to think about something else. For those fortunate enough to obtain enough grants and/or student loans to pay for a portion of your institute of higher learning's obscene tuition, remember the phenomenal, utter hose-job we fell prey to thanks to the college book stores?
Consider the portion of the young population that currently possesses cutting-edge technology. There are some potential beautiful things occurring here. One, if you are like me, you are more of a Farmer Ted (nerd), than you are a Jake (jock). (Sixteen Candles reference, check.) In the case of either nerd or jock, odds are they have an iPod, iPad, iPhone within reach. The devices transcend status. Two, the venture into the textbook industry not only creates a new revenue stream, it also presents a "need" for the very devices Apple sells. Brilliant.
Due to my somewhat vengeful nature, I am fairly confident that we will witness a day when our college-bound kids forget what an actual textbook looks like, much less having to purchase the required text for 75 times the "resale value" every semester. So if I see any storm clouds or panic selling, I am looking for any drops Apple affords us, to add to an already long position. And I look forward to iBooks 2 and the hopes that my son doesn't have to pay $300 for a textbook, only to have the college book store give him $17 when he sells it back three months later.
Until next time, from the trading table,
Kyle Metivier

Take note, Chosun Ilbo. There are two or three weeks of classes between the final exam and the end of the semester, and for me that's a chance to break away from the textbook and basically do whatever I want. It's a little intimidating, but waygook.org has a good selection of lessons on a variety of topics and of varying degrees of complexity. For some classes I've been doing an activity that teaches the students about the Korean flag in English. The final element of the lesson is to pretend that they are the new president of a unified Korea and design a flag for the new nation. I got this one last week.
When I, um, talked to him about it he modified it to this.
Unique sentiments in that he was only out of about two hundred students who opted for the anti-Japan angle, while others did some variation of the Taegeukgi or used symbols of peace. And I have to give him credit for actually remembering to draw Jeju; most of our young patriots made the Liancourt Rocks the size of Iceland while forgetting the country's largest island. I think he loses points for implying Tsushima is Korean territory, as some excitable Koreans do. Anytime you have "Dokdo is our land!" banners you'll invariably find "Daema-do is our land!" nearby.
But we know it takes very little to get students' going in the anti-Japan direction. You'll remember a couple of years ago when students in Incheon were encouraged to create anti-Japan posters by their middle school teacher, and then had them displayed in local subway stations (here and here).
Hell, their politicians aren't much better. Here are some politicians participating in a Korea-Japan year of friendship.
That got me to thinking about what flag I'd design for the US should I need to irritate our northern neighbors. I don't know what I'd draw, but I guess it'd have to incorporate the Carolina Hurricanes somehow.

Play Station can wait. Micromata supports Stadtfüchse Licherode
The Project Stadtfüchse Licherode aims at showing these children a different world, much more real and full of adventure. The starting point is at the environmental centre in Licherode and this year Micromata sponsors a class from the Carl Anton Henschel School, located in the north of Kassel.
During an entire week the children are given the opportunity
to experience life in rural areas, explore a quarry and use soapstone to experiment and design with.
Mr. Adamaschek, project manager, reports back on how much fun the youngsters had: "The kids loved the hike through the woods to Oberellenbach. They could barely believe how beautiful the nature here in the north of Hessen is." Class teacher Anette Schneider adds: "The week-long trip to Licherode bestowed the children with a wealth of experiences and allowed me to interact with them within a natiral and stressfree environment. Our thanks goes out to Licherode and especially the sponsor." Stéphanie Naujock, human resource manager at Micromata and facilitator of the sponsoring states the reasoning behidn it as follows: "More and more children these days sit at home by themselves in front of any type of screen and expeirence a mere reflection of a manifold and fascinating world. It's about time to counteract that development and get those children out into the fresh air.""

Report on Structural Separation
AbstractThe Structural Separation Report was prepared by the OECD Competition Committee to review the implementation of the 2001 OECD Council Recommendation concerning structural separation in regulated industries. The report shows that many countries have implemented legislation that seeks to promote non-discriminatory access to noncompetitive infrastructure. In a number of jurisdictions, there is dissatisfaction with the access provided by integrated companies to their non competitive infrastructure, leading a number of jurisdictions to strengthen the barriers that separate noncompetitive and competitive parts of a company. One new approach seeks to create managerial incentives that are equivalent to those that would be faced by managers in fully structurally separated companies while maintaining unified ownership of noncompetitive and competitive lines of business. This approach can be termed functional separation and has recently been pursued in the telecommunications sector in at least two jurisdictions. The results of implementing functional separation will be of considerable importance for future policy decisions related to structural separation. The OECD Council endorsed the report's conclusion relating to maintaining the Recommendation in its current form and invited the Competition Committee to report back in three years' time on the implementation of the Recommendation.

Original Travel's holiday hot spot – hang out in Borneo
Got itchy feet after all that sitting around eating Quality Street at Christmas? To tie in with the launch of ACHICA Travel, with award-winning travel and holiday specialist Original Travel, we asked the experts for a February holiday hot spot. And what a delight to hear about the holiday destination of the month – Borneo. Few destinations have as much to offer as this enormous island, shared between Malaysia and Indonesia and the tiny oil-rich state of Brunei. Original Travel recommends a visit to the Malaysian states of Sabah and Sarawak and they alone contain enough diversity to entertain families, wildlife enthusiasts, divers and honeymooners alike.For families, this truly is where the wild things are, as new species of beasties are discovered on a seemingly monthly basis. Borneo is also one of the last places on earth to see orangutans, the 'men of the jungle', in their natural habitat. Children and kidults alike can help the orangutan conservation cause by sponsoring an individual, and Original Travel's hirsute friend Sen is doing swingingly…Elsewhere in the dense jungle interior are fascinating villages where you can stay overnight with indigenous tribes going about their lives in the same way they have for centuries, before catching a longboat safari to see the wildlife from pygmy elephants, monitor lizards and crocodiles to proboscis monkeys.
And Borneo's own islands are pretty special, such as Lankayan, one of the best dive destinations in the world, and Selingan Turtle Island, a favourite nesting site of giant turtles that travel hundreds of miles to lay their eyes on the same beach they were hatched on years before. You can see the turtles laying their eggs at night and watch the baby turtles hatch and run to the sea…
If this isn't enough to keep you interested, then there's always Mount Kinabalu (at 13,500ft South East Asia's tallest peak) to conquer. It's not a technical climb, but you do need to be fit, and the views from the top are a great reward. And for honeymooners? All of the above, plus immaculate beachfront hotels, so there really is pretty much something for everyone…

Alfa Romeo 159 Sportwagon
This segment isn't all about Germanic efficiency; a generous helping of Italian flair is always welcome. In fairness, one of the sportiest things about this wagon is its name, just because no car maker likes to use the term "estate" or the W word without some extra juice. Nevertheless, this 159 makes any autostrada seem a little more graceful, and when it deploys one of Alfa's exceptionally good JTD turbodiesels, it offers a mix of style, sense, and desirability rarely found elsewhere. The 2.4-liter JTDM five-cylinder example makes 210 hp and 300 lb-ft of torque, probably enough to topple the Leaning Tower of Pisa once and for all. But that would be a bad thing.
VW Jetta SportWagen TDI
Taking the sport wagon concept literally is fine when the result comes out like this. Similar to the Alfa in some respects, this Jetta is not overly sporty, but with the TDI engine under its hood, there's a satisfying thrust and a satisfactory thirst. We've enjoyed this car so much; when there's a slick-shifting DSG transmission, 236 lb-ft of torque, and 41 mpg coexisting in the same machine, it's easy to see why. This car is one reason why European machines are seducing American buyers these days: It's affordable to buy and run, offers decent equipment levels and space, and has just a little bit of chic thrown in. For added eco-friendliness (unusual in something even vaguely sporty), the TDI engine has won two Green Car of the Year awards.
Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG Wagon
As amazing as the RS 6 Avant and M5 Touring are, this is the ultimate sport wagon. At least until the next ultimate sport wagon comes along. Even then, it would be hard to argue with 525 hp and 465 lb-ft of torque coming from a 6.3-liter V8, a seven-speed gearbox, optional ceramic composite brakes that can almost stop time, 200 mph with the limiter disabled, and a generous 68.9 cubic feet of cargo space. By reaching 60 mph from standstill in just 4.4 seconds (extrapolating that figure from hitting 62 mph, or 100 km/h, in 4.6 seconds), this thing is fast-arguably the fastest sport wagon in the world by this metric. Note that the claimed time for the two-seater SL 63 AMG is 4.5 seconds. The automatic transmission has one mode called "Controlled Efficiency" and also a launch control, which is just plain adorable. And because this is a wagon, there's an air suspension at the rear that ensures a constant and consistent ride height regardless of load. Available in the USA? Please sign our petition.
Reliant Scimitar GTE
This strange British car (from a company more known for making dodgy three-wheelers) might better be described as a shooting brake, but it did share two primary attributes with sport wagons: a tailgate and a reputation for speed. So semantics be damned. Anyway, the E stood for estate (English for wagon) and there was a low-volume GTC convertible. The design came from an estate car the company made for the Turkish market. The GTE lived from 1968 to 1986, with not many changes. The front suspension came from a Triumph TR6. Despite a lightweight fiberglass body, its Ford-sourced 2.5-liter or 3.0-liter (depending on the year) V6 still chugged petrol like the cast of Mad Men down Scotch. Not that such a predilection bothered British royalty-Princess Anne received her first GTE as a 20th birthday present and she went on to own eight more. The police caught her speeding in one, not a rare transgression for her.
BMW M5 Touring
With the 5 Series now in its F10 generation, there should be an M sedan coming in 2011 (excitingly, BMW is said to be working on extensive weight-saving measures). Whether a Touring variation of that ever sees the light of day is still firmly in the realm of conjecture. Chances of an M GT might be better. So the previous E61 M5 Touring (not available in North America, naturally) joins the E34 version as another under-appreciated rare bird and the only M-fettled 5 wagons to date. Ten cylinders making 500 hp and 384 lb-ft make a superb asset to an already fine and functional car. Which leads one to assume that the pose value of a sport sedan far outweighs the convenience value of a sport wagon, while an X6 M (admittedly, an absolute hoot) is flavor of the month. Shouldn't we be over all that nonsense by now?

At the recent Minnesota Interactive Marketing Association's conference, my presentation topic — job search strategies — was by far the most low-tech offering for more than 1,000 Web developers, Twitter gurus and e-mail marketers attending.
I suspected that would be the case, and wore my typewriter brooch as a humorous touch. One woman saw it and exclaimed, "Oh, a typewriter. I learned to type on one of those. I'm a digital immigrant!"
Digital immigrant? I hadn't been in the conference five minutes and I had learned a new term. That was a fitting harbinger for a day of contrasts between the old and the new, high-tech and low-tech.
Here are some of the other things I observed in my day at the conference.
● It was a high-tech crowd with low-tech gear. A few people were using laptops, but the majority were jotting notes on paper, just as we've done for a century.
● A tweeter in every session. As a presenter, I'm

Build a Django App for Storing and Editing Notes
What does a killer website, an amazing smartphone app and a futurustic plugin for Google Glass have in common?
A Back End
Without a back-end all you are left with is an empty skeleton of a UI. Among other things, a back-end let's you:
Django is a Python-based web framework that provides a vast amount of plumbing to build a web-backend so that you don't have to do it. This will allow you to focus on building more and better features into your application without worrying about infrastructure and plumbing.
Why this class?
This is a project based class and will take a practical approach towards learning Django. By the end of the class you will be comfortable with the following:
The final project will be writing a Personal Notes app. This app will expose you to many basic patterns which will be applicable to a wide variety of Django Apps.
Although this is a beginner class I plan to introduce a few advanced Django concepts in theory so as to give you an idea of the power of the Django framework.
This will also prepare you for job interviews that may ask you Django related questions.
Why Django?
Who should take this class
Anyone who wants to get started with web development and Django as well as get a peek into the more advanced features can take this class. Here are a few categories I can think of:
Whether you fit into one of the above categories or not, I encourage you to enroll for this class. Don't let a lack of experience with Python or web-frameworks discourage you. The class does not require a lot of experience with Python or web frameworks - a desire to learn will go a much longer way!
- Basic know-how of web development - Basic knowledge of Python
Level: Beginner
School: Technology
Related Subjects: Web Development, APIs, Python, Django
I have been writing software and managing technical teams and products for 14 years and during this time I have worked with several programming languages, frameworks and products. I ha...

A Texas State Technical College student is dead after a rollover accident that Bellmead Police responded to at 5:30 p.m. Monday night.
Officers were dispatched to the Southbound I-35 access road near exit 338B.
When police arrived, they found a pickup truck that had flipped over into a creek.
They later determined that the car was southbound on the access road and when it tried to exit, the driver, later identified as 18-year-old Dylan Martin of Leander, lost control of the vehicle.
By the time first responders got to Martin, he was non-responsive and not breathing.
Police say he was wearing his seatbelt at the time of the accident, and they think speed may have played a factor in the wreck.
