International UFO Conference

in Gothenburg the 27th of October 1996

What lies behind the abduction syndrome?
Is the Roswell 'autopsy footage' a fake?/
Did the British Ministry of Defence try to hide information on UFO reports?
Why are the Norwegian security police interested in UFO reports?

For the first time an International UFO Conference will be held in Scandinavia.

The event is sponsored by UFO Sweden with its 2,000 members and the professional conference organization FMA. The conference will be held at the Torslanda Conference Centre near Gothenburg on Sunday 27th of October.

The speakers are some of the most respectable and well informed researchers in the field of Ufology. Nick Pope, the only non-Ufologist, has recently published a book about his experiences as the official UFO researcher for the Ministry of Defence in Great Britain.

The Conference locale has been carefully selected.

Gothenburg has for a long time been considered a Nordic meeting place. We also look forward to invite representatives from the scientific community for a serious debate about the UFO phenomenon.

More information will be posted on UFO-Swedens web site:

http://www.ufo.se

regularly from June 15.
The speakers are:

Jenny Randles.
British ufologist and writer who is going to talk about 'Mind Games: The dangerous search for the truth behind the alien abduction'. In a precis Miss Randles describes her lecture as follows: "For 40 years reports of alien abduction have been spreading around the globe and growing in numbers to the stage where they are now of epidemic proportions. Ufologists often rush into such investigations using dangerous and dubious techniques which not only serve to confuse the evidence and disturb the witness but have potentially disastrous long-term consequences on the mental health of the abductee. Britain and Sweden are the only countries in the world where the major UFO groups have outlawed these techniques. For seven years UFOlogy has had to survive without the methodology used almost everywhere else on a daily basis. What has been the outcome? Some strange reality seems to underpin the abduction evidence - be it on a physical, psychological or some other level of experience. Important clues can be grasped from a study of the data - finding links between abduction-prone witnesses, assessing the development of the phenomenon as it changes through time and space and interpreting the importance of the altered states of consciousness that permeate these close encounters. I call the symptoms of such a state the Oz factor and believe that its recognition points the way towards a clearer understanding of what may be going on."

Paul Fuller.
From Great Britain. Long time researcher and editor of the 'Crop Watcher' Mr Fuller investigates the much debated 'Roswell autopsy footage' which purports to show the actual autopsy of an alien being, allegedly recovered from a crashed spaceship in the New Mexico desert in 1947. He calls his lecture 'Roswell Autopsy Footage - Trial by Internet'. Paul Fuller writes: "Over the past eighteen months black and white film footage has surfaced which purports tho show the actual autopsy of an alien being, allegedly recovered from a crashed spaceship in the New Mexico desert in 1947. Since this footage first hit the headlines in January 1995 a unique rear guard action has broken out as UFOlogists all over the globe have attempted to expose the footage as a fake. On the Internet UFOlogists have united by exchanging and debating evidence. I will describe how the autopsy film debate developed and how, step by step, the footage and its commercial promoters lost all credibility."

Nick Pope.
From 1991 to 1994 he was responsible for investigating reports of unidentified flying objects for the British Ministry of Defense. His conclusions were both startling and controversial as he uncovered a number of cases which to him seemed to involve craft with technologies considerably more advanced than ours. Nick Pope, who is still employed by the Ministry of Defence, has published his findings in a best selling book 'Open Skies - Closed Minds' (Simon & Shuster 1996).

Kent Jeffrey.
Member of the American UFO organisations Mufon and Cufos. His subject is 'Roswell, an American Enigma', about the crash of an unknown vehicle in Roswell, New Mexico, of which he is a long time researcher. Mr Jeffrey writes: "The crux of the 1947 Roswell case comes down to which of the two press announcements made by the military on July 8, 1947, is true. The first stated that a crashed disk (UFO) had been recovered. The second, made about five hours later, claimed that the first announcement was a mistake and that what was recovered was actually nothing more than the remains of a common weather balloon and its radar reflector. Despite testimony from credible former military witnesses that the first press announcement was correct and the second a cover story, the case is far from proven, especially in the eyes of the skeptics and mainstream media. Unfortunately, much of what has been written on the subject, including the 1994 U.S. Air Force report on Roswell, is heavily biased toward either proving or disproving the case. Further complicating the issue are the inevitable charlatans and hoaxes, such.as MJ-12, phony debris, phony witnesses, and the Santilli film. It is my intention to present an objective overview of Roswell, including arguments made by those on both sides. I will also provide an update on the latest developments in the case as well as on the international grassroots effort to have the matter declassified. Even if one believes there is only a remote chance that the first July 8, 1947, press announcement was the correct one, pursuing the truth about the Roswell event is of the utmost importance. If established as true, it would indeed be the story of the millennium."

Per Andersen.
Scandinavian UFO Information. Danish UFO cases and the psycho-social impact of UFO-observations. "Denmark - a small country with a long UFO history! Per Andersen updates you on the Danish UFO scene and details some of the most recent and astonishing events. These include a young man and his dog driving in Jutland, September 1995. At 21.30, the car started behaving erratically. The speedometer moved rapidly between 0 and max, the thermometer moved into the red zone, the windshield wiper started moving (even though they were not turned on). Suddenly a pulsating light "exploded" down over the car. The witness looked out and above the car was a large circular object of 12-15 meters in diameter and just 3-4 meters above the car. The presentation also gives the current status of Danish ufology."

Ole Jonny Braenne.
Member of UFO-Norway. He is going to talk about the UFO investigations conducted by the Norwegian security police and defence. Mr Braenne describes his speech: "I will present an overview of the interest of the norwegian military and security police in UFO phenomena. I will also present results of my investigation into the subject matter".

A panel debate finishes the day and the audience will have the chance to put their questions directly to the speakers.

The UFO-Sweden Expo will also be open to Conference visitors. They will have the opportunity to search our UFO report archives with more than 12.000 cases on file; test our new CD ROM with lots of Swedish UFO cases, pictures, films and articles; visit our new exhibition and of course surf for UFO material on Internet.

COUNCIL of INVESTIGATION & RESEARCH on AERIAL/EARTH PHENOMENA (C.I.R.A.E.P.)

Dear Friend; We, Council members of CIRAEP, are promoting this UFO CONFERENCE. This gigantic conference was inspired from the success of Philadelphia 1st UFO Phenomena Conference in 1994 and from many request around the country, asking; "To Do It Again."

We are very proud to announce that Philadelphia is fast becoming the catalyst for information networking and education in the UFO phenomena. We owe much of that praise to the works of CIRAEP and the education accessibility of Temple University, as well as from supporting UFO and Paranormal groups and organizations of Temple and Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania area and from in and around the Philadelphia area.

The CIRAEP organization was formed out of the "Research & Investigation of the UFO Phenomena" class in 1994. CIRAEP is a research and investigation organization on UFO Phenomena and other paranormal phenomena of our times.

As a means to keep the public periodically abreast of our efforts to gain more rationality and truths in references to all such unnatural phenomena of our times and at the same time to broaden our financial base in order to be able to continue our public services, CIRAEP promotes various activities. At this time, CIRAEP is promoting the PHILADELPHIA 2ND UFO PHENOMENA CONFERENCE on November 15,16, and 17, 1996, at the Philadelphia Convention Center. As functioning from a community welfare and education perspective, CIRAEP seeks that the communities in the city of Philadelphia benefit by this conference through the education and inspiration we will give. It is hoped that Philadelphia will rise above whatever limitations it may have and truly become that BEACON OF LIGHT amongst its own and to the rest of our nation, as is its legacy passed on to it by the early Founding Fathers.

TIMES OF REGISTRATION; Friday (15th) 2:00 PM to 3:20 PM Saturday & Sunday (16th-17th) 8:00 AM to 9:00 AM

AN IMPORTANT CONFERENCE EVENT

**********IN REMEMBRANCE of Dr. Karla Turner**********

will be featured on Friday (15th) 3:40 PM to 3:55 PM. The speaker for this mimorian will be announced at the conference.
Dr. Karla Turner was an academic Instructor in a University, abductee, a distinguished and an effective lecturer, a well-known credible and world-wide respected UFO/Alien Abduction Researcher and the author of three top selling, world-wide distributed books: "Masquerade of Angels," "Taken," and "Into the Fringe." Even though Karla's entire family was, as well, experiencing the trife and fear promoted by the abductions, she sought more information from other experiencers and spoke up for the truth no matter what it took.

Karla or "Candy," she was often called by her friends, will be strongly missed by her family, by her friends and by the UFO community, but her contributions and person will never lose their impact on the inspirations, aspirations and consciousness of us all.......

$40-1 day $45.-1 day PLEASE
NOTE: THIS SPECIAL PRICE IS FOR PHILADELPHIA STUDENTS ONLY>>>>>

1. CONFERENCE LOCATION:

Held at Pennsylvania Convention Center, 12th & Arch Streets (downtown), Philadelphia,PA. You go in the Northeast entrance of the convention building (12th & Arch Sts). You can get the directions to the UFO Conference area from the security guard stationed inside the door.

2. DIRECTIONS:

No matter where you are driving from around the country (the exception is given below), follow this format: If you come by the Pennsylvania Turnpike, you would get off at Exit #24 and get on I-76 (Schuylkill Expressway) in the direction of Center City Philadelphia. If you come by I-95, you get off at I-76 (Schuylkill Expressway) in the direction to Center City Philadelphia.

EXCEPTION: If you are coming from Scranton or the Poconos, where you would follow the Northeast Extension of the Pennsylvania Turnpike or I-275, you would go SOUTH, getting off at the Norristown Exit then get on #476 to Philadelphia, then take I-76 (Schuylkill Expressway) in the direction to Center City Philadelphia.

In all the cases above, while on I-76, enroute to Center City Philadelphia, you would Exit at Broad Street and go South on Broad Street.

If you are looking for parking accommodations, as you are probably commuting back & forth from your home to the convention center each day, make a choice, if you haven't already, of the parking facilities listed:
for Example: Five Star Parking Lot: at 1333 Cherry St . (215) 546- 7524, $5.00-all day/days and Parkway Parking Lot at 150 N. Broad St. (Broad & Race Sts.) (215) 575-4005, $4.00 for Saturday, Sunday and evenings, ONLY; $9.50 on week days.

If you come by plane to the Philadelphia International Airport , it probably would be more convenient and as reasonable, in the long run, to get the limousine service (e.g. Limelight Limousine Services, etc.). Limelight Limousine cost only $8.00 per person; no matter what the distance, will transport you directly to your hotel/motel. But you must call and give them at least a 24 hour advance notice so that you won't have to wait a long time to be picked up.

Also the lodging facility, itself, may have its own courtesy vehicle to pickup at the airport, etc.

Cabs services, of course, are also available, if you choose that means. You must be cautious, though, of "hacks", who are not really licensed or insured to carry passengers to their destinations.
