| | | | 1985 - October: Encyclopedia II - Orson Welles - Final years A man known for his large appetites, Welles became extremely overweight in his later years, topping out at more than 350 pounds. He capitalized on his image in various advertising campaigns for certain brands of wines, hot dogs, and correspondence courses. A bootleg of the recording session for one of his later commercials still circulates on the Internet and elsewhere, often known simply as Frozen Peas. In the recording, Welles can be heard brazenly chastising the commercial's producers for its poor script and their "impossible, mean ...

However, recent news reports suggest only $1m is being invested every year into research, much less than the $1bn needed for the development of a viable airliner.
In October 2005, JAXA, the Japan Aerospace eXploration Agency, undertook aerodynamic testing of a scale model of a plane designed to carry 300 passengers at Mach 2. If pursued to commercial deployment, it would be ...

Voice Phenomena
Juergenson
was a film producer in Sweden who, in 1959 while making a documentary, had
decided to tape bird songs. As he began recording, little did he realize that
what was to follow would change the course of not only his earthly life but of
that he would lead in the world beyond after his death. When he played the tape
back he was startled to hear, in among the tweeting and chirping, his mother's
voice say in German, "Friedrich, you are being watched. Friedel, my little
Friedel, can you hear me?"

| | |  1985 - October: What are kriyas? (part III of III) -Kriyas, literally ''activities'', are spontaneous movements that
occur after kundalini awakening. These include bodily activities such as
trembling, shaking and spontaneous yoga postures; vocal activities such as
yelling, or spontaneous chanting and mental activities such as visions. These
kriyas eliminate the blocks to kundalini rising within the spine or central
channel.
This FAQ gives an overview of Siddha Mahayoga. Part I of III.
In Part III: 1) What are kriyas?, 2) So how do kriyas purify
my consciousness?, 3) Are these kriyas some sort of self-hypnosis or some sort
New Age phenomenon?, 4) Haven't a number of well-known teachers criticized
kriyas?, 5) Don't they say that kundalini is a force that needs control?, What
is the philosophy of siddha mahayoga?, 6) What is the precise role of the guru
in siddha mahayoga?, 7) What teachers give shaktipat initiation?, 8) Where can
I learn more?

| | | | 1985 - October: Encyclopedia II - Iran-Iraq War - War of the Cities Toward the end of the war, the land conflict regressed into stalemate. Both Iraq and Iran lacked sufficient self-propelled artillery to support their respective armored forces in assaults. This was made even more important because neither side had the air force capability to support ground forces.
When the relatively professional Iraqi armed force advance was halted by the sheer size and committment of Iranian infantry and the Iranian infantry moved to advance itself; it faced the terrible prospect that the Iraqis had large numbers of ...

| | | | 1985 - October: Encyclopedia II - Duran Duran - Influence Although they began their career as an interesting New Wave art-school band in the tradition of Roxy Music, the band's quick rise to stardom, their polished good looks, and their embrace of the teen press seemed to have doused their chances of favour from music critics. The British music press was particularly venomous. During the 1980s, Duran Duran were considered the quintessential manufactured, throw-away pop group – not too different from other boy bands created by behind-the-scenes managers (Menudo, New Kids On The Block, *NSYNC).
