TV RATINGS BY YOU. Have you ever wondered why there are so many stupid, thoughtless programs on Television? Well, the major reason is that there has been no simple way of telling the Networks and Cable companies and production companies what you like and dislike, so they rely on people like critics and reviewers who are often paid for their opinions. The Nielsen Ratings are also used and this is terribly flawed because it relies on ONLY 1,500 FAMILIES. This Electronic Newsletter will result in millions of opinions for the Networks to digest. For once, your opinion will matter. You will be able to tell them what you like and dislike. And please, tell them you want more intelligence factored into their thinking.

The first discovery of the creature cost the crew of the Nostromo their lives and the destruction of a multi-billion dollar Space Freighter. In the second movie, the 'Alien' returns to destroy a colony of Earthmen and women and they are entombed in the nest where they are sentenced to become the incubators for hundreds more of the egg-laying larval form of the Alien creature. Now, in this third novel in the series, the 'Aliens' hear about the destruction of their colony and they are determined to get revenge on the planet and especially the woman who killed their queen. It is ten years later and Ripley is now the Director of the Board of GloCon Corporation. She was elected to rid the system of all Alien life forms. She has been chosen to lead the group of U.S. Marines in their search and destroy mission only because of her own personal involvement and her memories of the ill-fated colonists. Ripley knows that there is a good chance she will not return from this assignment, but she also has a deep inner sense that if she doesn't do something about it, her entire species could be wiped out, overnight in a horrible, gruesome manner which only she can imagine. There is a strange series of events that keep cropping up in the reports from the far flung planets of the Corporation's mining Empire. People disappear, production is down dramatically from a year ago and some of the mining colonies are no longer reporting or responding to any radio inquiries. What's worse, there is increasing evidence that the 'Alien' life form may have established itself on Earth. People simply vanish in all the major cities of the Earth. They never return. The population of the Earth is actually declining and no one, not even the government experts can guess why. Ripley has an uneasy feeling what is behind it all and her dreams give her the answer. She must return to defeat the queen of queen aliens on their own home planet in a zone Earthmen have never before ventured. It will take her the rest of her life to find the 'Alien' queen, to kill her and to learn the awful truth. At best, if she is successful, she will return an old woman. All used up, she would live long enough to see a new age dawn on her species. At worst, she will become fodder for the Alien creatures and her own body will spawn thousands of them to run wild all over the universe! They will show her no mercy, she knows that. Still, she must go! {AUDIO CASSETTE AVAILABLE!} :HEALTH COOKBOOK - $10.00 THE LONGEVITY COOKBOOK! - ($10.00)" Whether you are young or old, one of your main areas of concern is how to live an extra ten years or more beyond what might be your 'normal' life expectancy.

BUILD A RETIREMENT FUND - AN EDUCATIONAL FUND WITH AS LITTLE AS FIVE HUNDRED DOLLARS AND WATCH IT GROW TO MILLIONS! THE SECRET IS STOCK OPTIONS!!! ($15.00)/Yr. Introductory offer. It goes to $50.00 soon! ACT NOW! Few people don't realize it, but anyone over 18 can control a hundred shares of IBM or ARCO or APPLE or many thousands of companies for only a few hundred dollars. If you purchased IBM, for example, it would cost you $10,000.00 at today's prices. Most of us don't have that kind of money, and yet the stock can go up ten points in a few days and make the owner a $1,000.00 profit, a 10% return. Much smarter to invest only $500.00. That way you've DOUBLED YOUR INVESTMENT!!! Right? That's absolutely correct. There are, however, a few more things you need to know before you go running off to your local stock broker. What is an option? It's the right to buy or sell 100 shares of stock at a given price for a given period of time. Well, what did you expect - something for nothing? So, there is a very real element of risk in stock option investing. That's the bad news. The good news is that the risk can be managed and many people do in fact double, triple, even quintuple their money in a very short period of time. Let's put it this way. With our advice and timing techniques, the odds are much better than you will ever get in Vegas. A much safer strategy is to sell them. In this way, you earn the company's dividend and some companies pay as much as 10% a year in dividends. Then you also pocket the speculators money who buys options from you, netting about 20% - 30% and more per year, ON TOP OF DIVIDENDS. Compare that to a bank's return of 4 or 5 percent. If you look at the history of the Stock Market, 90% of the time, it is not going up or down, it's just drifting sideways. This means that 90% of the time, you can earn 20% - 30% per year plus dividends and take very little risk. Compare this to Junk Bond funds, very popular right now because they pay about 10% - 11% Total. Why these investors don't sell options, I don't know. Junk Bonds and even Junk Bond Funds are much riskier and they pay about one third as high a return. Don't make all the investment mistakes others have made. Learn the secret of successful stock market investing with this electronic newsletter. We've compiled the best advice from some of the most successful stock market investors in the world. In this book, they will give you their secrets to amassing a fortune in a small period of time, using Stock Options.

It will pay back many hundreds of times this amount if you do exactly what it tells you to do.
