Claudia Schiffer - August 25, 1970 - Videos - Model, 1,000+ Covers Filmography

Black and white is viewed as the dream.

Color anchors our minds into physical reality.

Both are different layers of the same overarching illusion.

Sunsets and Surrealism

I took this pic of the sun setting through the arches of the Verrazano Bridge tonight, because it reminded me of a soul crossing over to the other side. After I downloaded the pic I noticed something weird. All of the parked cars do not exist in real time.

Good-bye Dolly - Remembering Dolly Parton

January 19, 1946 - August 25, 2026

Dolly Parton - Videos - Filmography -- Discography

Dolly Parton, queen of country music and humanitarian hero, dies at 80

If your actions create a legacy that inspires others to dream more, learn more, do more and become more, then, you are an excellent leader. ~ Dolly Parton

The world will always remember this music icon for her beauty, talent, humor, voluptuous curves (classic hourglass silhouette), clothing, wigs, philanthropy, graciousness and caring, and so much more ..

In the realm of "souls who travel together" - Dolly's beloved husband, Carl Dean, passed away on March 3, 2025, at the age of 82. I'm not sure she ever got over his loss.

Monday night, August 24, 2026, Entertainment Tonight did a segment covering Dolly Parton's development of digital avatar performances. The broadcast highlighted how Parton had been in deep, early-stage talks with tech companies to create a virtual hologram concert experience. The decision stems from her ongoing health struggles and the realization that she may no longer be able to handle the physical toll of traditional, long-term touring.

August 25, 1995 - August 25, 2026

Year thirty-one of my Crystalinks adventures has taken some interesting turns. What began as a compendium of 56 files has evolved into an ongoing exploration of consciousness, reality, science, technology, extraterrestrial phenomena, and the extraordinary patterns that seem to connect them all. To date Crystalinks has over 10,000 text files.

Simulation theory continues to dominate the conversation, with readers grasping the grand architecture of our existence more clearly than ever before.

As the physical world visibly fractures, people are realizing that true answers cannot be found by diving deeper into the repetitive emotional loops of material life. This often returns them to the very Crystalinks files that once guided them here - now seeing them through a 2026 lens after years of research and life experiences.

Information moves quickly in keeping pace with accelerating reality. Today readers skim news headlines and quickly glance through Crystalinks files to connect with something they're programmed to discover on a given day - making life a fact-finding mission with the final answer coming into focus just ahead.

Highlighting this year's political blogs was the 250 anniversary of the American Experiment in democracy and where the nation stands today with Trump at the helm. With this being a midterm election year, it presents complex challenges that influence outcomes in venues that touch the lives of most Americans and others around the world. Never-ending coverups and conspiracies unfold against a backdrop of events whose script is already in progress.

This year artificial intelligence moved forward in both positive and negative ways in our dualistic society. I use AI to enhance my blogs, research information, and best of all, generate high quality images. These tools are major timesavers, in what is generally a very busy day for me. Along with everyone else, I am learning things I never would've thought to research until AI brought them to my attention.

2026 was the year dissemination of information about UFOs and extraterrestrials came into focus with Trump slowly releasing classified files. Yet, while the answers we seek remain redacted, perhaps we already know what's in them based on personal research and observations.

More and more, I see myself as a teacher, visiting planet Earth to record information in Crystalinks for reasons that have become clearer through the years.

From the time my metaphysical journey officially began in 1983, I've had many readings with psychics and others I met along the way, describing me in ways that initially made no sense, but I have come to understand as my life unfolded.

I have a special destiny. I am connected to extraterrestrials. I was sent to Earth as a teacher and storyteller. I would write something important. Z is the part of me that guides and shares my destiny.

The word "teacher" takes me to the Anunnaki - extraterrestrial teachers - my experience confirmed in a manner of speaking - after capturing this pic of me turning into their likeness while sitting in a restaurant with family celebrating a birthday. Sometimes while teaching a workshop, I change into Anunnaki form for my students. It is generally a workshop where someone will look out of the window and excitedly tell the rest of the class that they have seen a UFO hovering outside.

From personal experiences to groundbreaking historical events - after all these years I still find something new to blog every day as both reality and Crystalinks remain a work in progress.

Thank you for being a vital part of both the junctions (space) and junctures (time) that define Crystalinks' journey on its thirty-first anniversary. We are, and have always been, navigating this cosmic adventure together.

As year 32 begins, we stand on the threshold of something we can all sense is imminent, using whatever tools we have at our disposal to find answers - including Crystalinks.

See ya' around the universe where truth ceases to be complicated and the ultimate answers are ... EZ

Remember 9/11 Twenty-Five Years Later

On 9/11 and the days that followed - as I reported live - Crystalinks had over two millions readers each day.

September 11, 2026 marks the 25th anniversary of the tragic events of 9/11. It was a turning point in the simulation - an insert if you will - that not only ushered in a new millennium but shifted humanity onto an accelerated trajectory - acting as a catalyst for a global shift that altered the very grids governing the evolution of consciousness.

I witnessed the second plane hitting the North Tower from my terrace - an event that at the time seemed surreal. I never forgot - the acrid smell of smoke that wafted through the city including my area, the shocked reactions of friends, family, neighbors, and clients who made it through - or had died and came to me in spirit - as they recounted what they witnessed. So many questions - some of which remain unanswered to this day.

My friend and neighbor Joanne Capestro was one of the more famous survivors, who generally tells her story to the news every year. Her story remains one of the most enduring symbols of survival from the North Tower. Her escape from the 87th floor - immortalized in the iconic photograph taken by Phil Penman and symbolized by the black heels she wore that are now preserved in the National September 11 Memorial & Museum - continues to be a core feature of the city's collective memory.

The 25th anniversary continues to bring these deeply personal accounts to the forefront as the city reflects on how that single day reshaped the global landscape. As part of the milestone anniversary coverage, Spectrum News 1 is running a dedicated series titled "25 Years, 25 Stories," highlighting New Yorkers who lived through the day and its aftermath.

Joanne's recent interview above, alongside those of other survivors, first responders, and witnesses, serves as a vital archive of memories etched in time. Watching these broadcasts, I recognize several individuals who originally sought comfort in my home to connect with loved ones lost that day. Remarkably, before their arrival, my apartment would fill with the distinct scent of smoke - a profound phenomenon we came to interpret as a reassuring sign from those who had perished on that momentous day.

So many stories. You can read some of them in my 9/11 archives including Joanne's story.

For those with the ability to "look beyond physical reality" into the consciousness grids where spirits reside - you will notice a visible influx of spirits - from those who perished on 9/11 to others connected to its ongoing legacy who have since passed.

While I have never focused on future US attacks, recent escalations in the Middle East, particularly those involving Iran and its allies, force a deeper reflection. They raise critical questions about the fate of democracy and the destiny of humanity's ancient bloodline which originated in that region and continues to shape ... its final moment.

Loyal New York Fans Never Give Up

After losing their first preseason openers, both the New York Jets and New York Giants rallied this weekend to win their second Preseason Games giving fans a genuine sense of optimism that New York football might finally be turning a corner. To cap off the summer, both teams will play against each other for one final preseason game - in the annual Snoopy Bowl or MetLife Bowl - at MetLife Stadium - the stadium they share - Friday, August 28, 2026, at 7:30 PM ET.

Loyal New York NFL fans proudly spoke to the press - before and after each game - with infectious, unyielding enthusiasm and sheer determination that this season - after enduring a grueling gauntlet of disappointments in recent years - both teams will finally rewrite their scripts and restore football glory to the Big Apple.

While we are in the thick of the NFL Preseason games - another massive sporting spectacle is kicking off here in Queens, NY. The 2026 US Open officially begins Sunday, August 30 - September 13, 2026 at Arthur Ashe Stadium, which holds the title of the largest tennis-specific stadium in the world. Singles qualifying matches and the newly revamped mixed doubles championship begin today, Monday, August 24, 2026. Lots of familiar faces, and a few new ones are hoping to rise in the ranks.

From legendary veterans chasing final milestones to hungry underdogs fighting through this week's qualifiers, a sheer competitive drive is on display in both sports.
