Circle’s end: a novel about crop circles
Even before he
sees his first crop circle, Matt, a down to earth student at
Bristol, is passionately interested in symbols. Who creates
these giant drawings in the fields? What messages do they hide?
Matt decodes their symbols for the Unit, a military research
group led by the enigmatic Ember, an efficient and determined
woman with some strange spiritual beliefs. When the
‘agroglyphes’ become too vast and complex to be the work of
humans, the press take interest. The Unit is convinced that
extraterrestrials are responsible and mount guard on certain
fields but Matt remains sceptical…
Circle’s End is
a passionate mystery set in the world of symbols and crop
circles. It is the conflict between material and spiritual,
scepticism and faith, as embodied by the main protagonists. Each
must free themselves of the illusions that make life and death
supportable. Only then can they understand what is making the
circles and decipher their desperate message.
“Without giving
anything away, the book does not try to reveal what is really
making crop circles. Rather it explores a wide variety of
theories and the reasons each character has for believing them.
The first half of the story would seem to confirm the views of
crop circle sceptics, but everything changes thereafter. I do
hope that the final discovery at the end holds true… perhaps we
will find out in 2012! Anyway, it’s a lovely story with
wonderful real life characters and a surprising spiritual
side.” Eleanor Woods

THE PINK BOOK
CROP CIRCLE ETIQUETTE: Guidelines for visiting formations
The most important thing you will need if you plan to visit any crop
circles this summer

Click cover to download the PDF file
This little booklet is packed with practical information and advice
about things to think about, and be mindful of, when visiting the crop
circles and should be the constant companion to all those visiting the
fields.
The importance of this little book cannot be overstated. It is an
open attempt by the crop circle community to engage with the farmers and
to improve awareness of both the countryside and the farmers' concerns
about those visiting the fields.
The PINK BOOK is funded entirely by donations from the crop circle
community and the general public. We really need your support to keep
this vital little book in print. Donations can be sent to the address
below. Cheques made payable to THE PINK BOOK please. Any amount, no
matter how small is welcome.
HOW TO GET YOUR COPY
You can download a PDF of the pink book for free, which you can then
read or print out at home, by clicking on the book cover opposite.
Copies of the PINK BOOK will be also be available at tourist sites
throughout Wiltshire, but you can also get your copy free by sending a
stamped, addressed (A5 sized) envelope to:
THE PINK BOOK, 6 Townsend Farm Cottages, Horton, Wiltshire
SN10 3NE
IMPORTANT: You will
need to put a LARGE LETTER stamp on the envelope. If there is no
postage, or inadequate postage on your envelope - it will not be sent
back to you.
We can also supply multiple copies for tour groups in return for a

"Congratulations on a great video project. I wish that this kind of
narrative recollection was available for years past. It was so helpful
to see the juxtaposition of agriglyphs in the course of one season. The
scripted commentary was terrific in highlighting the essential features
of the patterns. The video yearbook format of your film is just perfect
and so helpful for research. Thank you so much for making it possible to
share the wonder from so far away. Bravo"

CROPCIRCLES
REFLECTIONS OF A SEASON
We came across
what seemed to be a small shrine in a formation that had
appeared late in the season. This inspired Stuart Dike to take
this opportunity to reflect on the whole crop circle phenomenon
in which he has been closely involved over many years. He
focuses on the 2009 season as it turned out to be one of the
most active to date. An abundance of formations had appeared
across the Southern English countryside. Many appeared to hold
mysterious messages and meanings within their designs. Our
latest DVD is a wonderful and thoughtful insight into this
amazing annual phenomenon.
Written by Stuart Dike. The script editor
is Beverley Gibsone
Duration 46 minutes. |

|
Crop Circle Reporter will use video to bring the
immediacy and astonishment of the crop circle phenomenon to the viewer.
We will regularly film formations both from the air and the ground and
there will be video reports on events from long-time researchers Michael
Glickman and Gary King who have between them an aggregate of 35 year’s
research into the phenomenon.
The site is committed to the positive. We will share our sense that we
are privileged here to be in the presence of the miraculous; we will
examine it with the respect it deserves.

NICK NICHOLSON PASSED AWAY
ON 24TH NOVEMBER 2009
It is with great
sadness that we
learn of the passing of Nick
Nicholson. Nick was a friend of The Crop Circle Connector
and over the last 15 years
his great interest in photography has kept us supplied with
excellent photographs of the phenomenon from the air and from
the ground. Crop Circles had
caught Nick’s attention while he lived in Nottinghamshire and
his RAF experiences, which included a period of rocket training
in the USA, fired a deeper interest in this phenomenon’s
apparent connections with space. An interest and curiosity
which never abated.
His desire to
record and spread the word about crop circles led Nick to move
to Wiltshire, from where he published his own quarterly magazine
The Circular Review, which had an international
subscription base. For several years, in his efforts to inform
a wider public about this enduring and beautiful phenomenon, he
also organised his own Crop Circle Fayre at Alton Barnes.
Never
one to suffer a fool gladly, his famously ‘grumpy old man’
persona actually masked a kind, generous and humorous nature and
his presentations and his presence at the various Crop Circle
conferences was always greatly appreciated. Nick
was flying and taking pictures until the end of the 2009 season.
His illness was sudden and he was hospitalised in Swindon in
mid-September. After a brief battle
with cancer he was moved to Norfolk to be nearer his daughter
where he died
peacefully in his sleep on the evening of the 24th November -
surrounded by his family, to whom we extend the sympathies of
the entire crop circle community.
We will miss him
very much!
The Crop Circle
Connector
UPDATE:-
Thanks again for the
piece on the website, its very fitting. Just
to let you know Nick's funeral will be
held on Monday 7th December at St. Faiths
crematorium Norwich at 3.30pm. Friends and
relatives will be gathering after at the
nearby White Horse pub. We think Grandude
would have appreciated this! Cards and
flowers etc can be sent to John Brown
Funeral Directors, 102 North Walsham Road,
Norwich, Norfolk, NR6 7QQ . Alternatively
donations can be sent in place of flowers
and the money will go to the Kingfisher ward
fund at the Great Western Hospital Swindon
where Nick was cared for very well by all
the staff.

John A. Burke

November 13, 1951 - February 26, 2010
John A.
Burke, the "B" in "BLT Research Team Inc." and a native of
Oyster Bay, Long Island, New York, has died at the age of 58.
An inspired and tireless advocate for the likelihood that
natural (although currently undiscovered) forces are involved in
the crop circle phenomenon, John carried out a considerable
volume of new research during the 1990s, very much "behind the
scenes."
In 1995 he co-authored the peer-reviewed
paper "Semi-Molten Meteoric Iron Associated with a Crop
Formation"
(J. Sci. Exploration) which presented evidence that
molten iron-rich deposits discovered in a 1993 crop circle had
been produced when meteoric dust, heated through interaction
with a descending plasma vortex, had impacted the field.
In conjunction with his crop circle work with
Michigan biophysicist W.C. Levengood John was instrumental in
developing the "MIR Stressguard"
process, a technique which replicated the BLT Team's discovery
that seeds taken from crop circles which had occurred in mature
plants grew both faster than normal and also produced increased
yield while simultaneously withstanding typical plant
stressors. Years of attempts by John to bring this technology
to the world's seed companies failed, because the financial
profits which could be anticipated were less than those garnered
by the current, genetic, approach.
During the last 10 years John had pursued
multiple other interests and in 2005 he and colleague Kaj
Halberg published their ground-breaking book "Seed of
Knowledge, Stone of Plenty"
which presented evidence that naturally-occurring earth energies
had been not only recognized, but utilized, by the ancient
megalith builders in multiple cultures around the world.
Reviewed by Boston University geologist Robert M. Schoch, the
book was praised as "utterly fascinating" and a new "approach to
understanding the mysteries of ancient megalithic structures."
Most recently John had been working on a
method to calibrate pain levels so that medical professionals
could more accurately provide relief of suffering. Animal
trials had been found effective and testing with humans was
being planned.
John, who had been long divorced, is survived
by four sisters and one brother, all of whom were with him when
he died. John was a pioneer….and I will miss him very much.

Companion film to the Crop
Circle Year Book 2009
Temporary Temple Productions
2009 - A film by
Steve
Alexander, Rob Luckins & Karen Alexander
Recording the crop circles as we do is not
just a technical exercise. It is not a joy rode in a helicopter.
It is a mysterious shamanic journey where inspirational images
of the circles are exchanged for creative energy, imagination,
and dreams and sleep. An intimacy is achieved between
photographer and subject that transcends consciousness
parameters, until by the height of the season, with long hours,
early mornings, late nights, and accumulated sleep deprivation
an altered state of consciousness is inspired and a channel of
communication opens. We are often asked how we manage to take
the pictures we do. We consider that we record the circles with
the cooperation and guidance of whatever lies behind their
creation. To consider the formations mere objects to be snapped
at by a camera is to fail to fully respond to the depth of the
phenomenon. For a short while each summer we give ourselves over
to a measure of intoxication with the circles that allows us to
do our work.

are fired up enough to save OUR PUB and retain its importance as
a hub for the local and international communities who have an
interest in this location. They have already had two public
meetings have also undertake a feasibility study and draft

Pat Delgado has
passed away. Noon 23 May 2009.
From Colin Andrews

1919 - 2009
Pat Delgado, famous for being the
person who started serious research into what became known as
crop circles, passed away at 8.30 AM (U.K.) today in Winchester
Hospital, Hampshire, England. Pat was a very young 90 years of
age, when cancer struck and took a very rapid toll in recent
weeks.
He was a compassionate and
sensitive human being, an excellent engineer and reputable
healer. He was a dear friend and my co-author who was largely
responsible for one of the happiest periods of my life.
I send my deepest and most sincere
condolences to Norah (his Wife), Jan (only Daughter) and Guy
(Grandson) who did all they could in such distressing
circumstances. Love to you all.

HIDDEN MYSTERIES
Remarkable Revelations
CROP CIRCLES - Hidden Mysteries' is the most
ambitious and important DVD production that we have produced so far on
the crop circle phenomenon. On this journey we
investigate many secret societies over the years and their association
with geometry. Our timeline goes from Neolithic cultures, to Egyptian
and Greek secret societies, through the Middle Ages , to the Age of
Enlightenment and the mysterious world of freemasonry to modern day
mathematical concepts We include the latest crop circles filmed from the
air and on the ground.
Written by Stuart Dike and Julian Gibsone. From an original outline

Readers will be saddened to hear of the death of
John Michell after a period of illness. The author of numerous
seminal books, he early embraced the crop circle phenomenon, and
through the magazine The Cereologist, which he edited over the
crucial years of 1990-1993, he opened the eyes of many to the
importance of the crop circle circles. His influence percolated down
to many leading crop circle researchers, he was a wise humorous and
open presence, and he will be sorely missed.

PAUL VIGAY
Paul Vigay's body was found yesterday morning on the shore at
Southsea.
Paul was one of the brightest stars in the
crop circle universe. A talented mathematician, computer
technician and a maker of electronic gadgets, he was one of the
first researchers into the crop circle phenomenon in the early
1990's where his talents were quickly recognised. He had an
exceptional gift for investigation and often led the field in
deciphering the mathematical aspects found in certain crop
circles. His interests spread far beyond crop circles and he was
a keen explorer into other aspects of the Unexplained. He was
amazingly articulate and had a rare knack of being able
to explain technical details in the simplest language. He has
made a major contribution to the subject and his place will not
be easily filled.

He also made great contributions to the CCCS
and was also one of the founder members of UNEX.
He was a really super person, and a good
friend who I have known for 19 happy years. Many have been the
times when we have been into the fields together. He had a
great sense of humour and I have never heard him utter a cross
word.
I will miss him greatly, his bright ideas and
just for being himself.
Please remember his family in your thoughts
and prayers.
He was a giant of a man.

Thursday, February 19, 2009
As I understand it
David discovered a year or so ago that he had cancer
which finally involved his lungs, stomach and brain.His wife Mary
and his family were at his bedside today. David was a tireless
worker for truth and through his website, conferences and lectures,
encouraged a great number of people to go on their own explorations
of the mysteries of the universe. Now David is en route to
uncovering one of the greatest mysteries of all and we wish him a
fond bon voyage on his last great journey.

WHAT DO MODERN CROP PICTURES MEAN?

Some people claim that modern crop pictures are just
abstract landscape art, drawn in English fields by
human fakers with rope and boards, and that such
patterns have no deeper meaning. Such a view is
profoundly wrong, because serious researchers can
now understand clearly what most crop pictures mean.
Two pictures from the summer of 2008 showed for
example pi to ten digits as 3.141592654, or our
nine-planet solar system as it will appear on
December 23, 2012 when the Mayan Long Count calendar
ends. Detailed forensic inspection of the fields
suggests that neither picture (nor many others)
could have been locally human-made. Quite
surprisingly, instead of alien symbols, those
authentic crop pictures often show long-forgotten
symbols from our distant past on Earth: whether from
Egypt, the ancient British Isles or central America.

Jonathan Sherwood Passed Away

The following is an announcement of Jonathan's Passing away and
funeral details, please do pass on to anyone who knew him.
Rachel Sherwood and Family.
It is with great sadness that we inform you of the passing away
of Jonathan Sherwood, informally known as drjohn, on the 31st of
October 2008. He became ill suddenly on the 29th of October from
a rare type of stroke, and passed away peacefully two days
later. Jonathan was 56. He was and always will be much loved and
greatly missed by his wife Rachel and boys James and Sam. He
will be sadly missed by all his family and friends. I am sure
this will come as a great shock to all who knew him as it has to
us.
The funeral of Jonathan Sherwood was held on Thursday the 13th
of November at 10.45 am at the West Wiltshire Crematorium,
Devizes Road, Semington, Near Trowbridge, Wiltshire. BA14 6HL.
England.
Flowers or donations if desired in memory of Jonathan
are for the Wiltshire Air Ambulance c/o John Stuart
Funeral Service Limited, Castle Farm, Hillworth Rd,
Devizes. SN10 5HD. Tel: 01380 723883
http://www.cropcirclexplorer.com
Jonathon Sherwood’s predictions for the 2009 summer
season
“In 2009, many new
crop pictures will appear that are not man-made, and
the evidence will become obvious. They will seem
impossible to produce by human hands. “
“Specific patterns
will appear in areas far from human habitation, and
of a size not feasible to produce by hand. Their
creations will be witnessed to happen.”
“The 2009 season will
thus be a wake-up call to the local population, as
well as to the UK government.”
Jonathon Sherwood,
October 20, 2008 (see
http://cropcirclexplorer.com/cropcircleblog/?m=200810)
