Hi all it has been busy month of the new year. Busy with work as well as scheduling new interviews and reviewing new contributors' articles. I had to arrange for new contributing writers. Some of the existing writers had other priorities come up. Also I have been making further changes to improve the overall look and structure of the news magazine. I have been talking with a web designer to help out with designing new pages for the site. However I am not entirely satisfied with the design. For right now I am continuing to make little changes here and there on my own, and keeping eye out for new applications that will improve the news magazine and radio show.

You will have noticed a new look for the forum. Proboard started upgrading a few days ago. When you log in you will have to verify your email address.
Also I have been talking with a web designer about changes to the news magazine. I recently upgraded my company website but I am not sure if who I used for that website will be able to help with the news magazine. I am exploring some new tools including a new template for the site.
I have forwarded my email address to a new webmail account in order to secure all email and guard against spam.

Hi all just wanted to let you know there are new articles from the contributing writers coming. I have been very busy with my day job as well as doing some changes to the website. You may not notice but I have been editing the coding of each page. Cleaning up some formatting codes.
Also I have been talking with a web designer and trying out a new page editor to try out some new layouts for the news magazine.

What do you think of the new look to the forum. Proboard has been working on it for several months and I was part of the beta test. We found a few problems which proboard did fix. I like the new look. How about you ?

Hi all finished doing some more cosmetic changes to all pages. Also finishing up editing some new articles, and working on the format for a new section on the "ufos and space" page. One of the reason needed to do some cosmetic changes so can add new sections to any page.

Hi all I have gone through the best of art bell board. Several interviews and some parts of other interviews are not available any longer. Not only due to youtube pulling off due to copyright. Some have been deleted by the user and others just disappeared. a couple of sites where use to be able to listen to random art bell shows have gone dark and offline.

Hi all I have been involved in various priorities but there are new articles coming to the "in the news now" page. Among the priorities has been continuing to make a few changes here and there to all the pages. I have been talking with several people who are involved in website marketing. I have also attended several internet marketing workshops in the recent past. However with changes to facebook, google, twitter, and even linkedin some of the tips I have received no longer applies. Other tips would not be appropriate for the news magazine. I have been working on a compromise that will be suitable and fits with the changes to social media and search engines.

All on the general discussion board including Joss Wheldon Dr Horrible sing along blog web miniseries.

Hi all some changes to most of the pages just completed. I needed to move some reports off of the news archive horoscope page. The space news reports now on the ufos and space news page. The reports about conspiracies, paranormal, and mysteries on the contact the editor library mysteries conspiracies page. The reports about ancient egypt discoveries now on the also in the news crop circles ghosts ancient egypt page.
I am considering some changes for the news archive horoscope page. Can still find health, science, environment, and history reports on that page.

Hi all I have been just swamped the last few weeks. A lot on my plate. Some problems with clients and I am working on new pages for the website. I would appreciate your help with a small donation to the campaign I have on gofundme. The link to the campaign can be found in the upper right of the "in the news now breaking news" page. All money going towards marketing and website improvements. I want to significantly improve everything on the website including the radio show in the next few months.

Hi all it has been an extremely busy summer with work on the existing and new pages for the news magazine. You wouldn't see that much that is different about the existing pages. It has been a lot of tedious coding. Cleaning up the codes on each page. It helps to make what you see easier to navigate and to click on what want to get more information. I am working on new templates for the new pages. I am considering something very different which would move the news magazine to a new hosting company. At This Time radio also undergoing some changes. I have upgraded my one computer but staying with windows 7. Will have to wait to see how windows 9 works out with others.
I am considering to change from windows movie maker to the youtubeuploader. There is a lot of great features can take advantage of but in order to upload a program longer than 5 minutes have to pay for the premium version.
This is one of the reasons I am asking for donations to help the news magazine on its mission to be THE source for the news and discoveries we need. Please take a few minutes to donate a minimum 5 dollars to the gofundme campaign. Also working on some genre specific ad campaigns. I would like to hire a marketing specialist but it has been difficult because several has no experience or knowledge of the kind of things we like to talk and discuss. Have some strong possibilities though.

Hi all a couple of updates to note. Due to site problems with gofundme I had to delete the page for donations. I am looking into other sources and talking to some for genre specific ads for the site. I prefer not to fall in the same trap as other sites who sell ad space to anyone regardless of the content. I may sign up with an advertiser as long as will be able to decide on the types of ads. That is going to be difficult. google and others will promote any ad as long as they receive the money.
I have a found an investor to provide a large sum but won't let that affect content.

Hi all just wanted to let you know why don't see a lot of improvements made to the site because of two very important reasons. First I am the only one who can for right now perform the duties of webmaster due to complexities for how the site has to be maintained. Second unlike facebook, twitter, and other websites I don't believe in constant major changes to the website. Prefer to gradually introduce improvements. If only facebook would do the same it would prevent some of the glitches that site has experienced.
