Yes... it is therefor.
The Yellow Color is to weak the Heroes, it is no coincidence that the Site is yellow colored.

I know it is mentioned before, but here is the Link to the Parallax again:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parallax_%28comics%29

And I dont know... but I have a Deja Vu, that the pic of the Parallax right in the Top was shown on Huds MySpace in the Beginning.
But I really dont know. Sad

I know what you mean about deja vu, lol:

Quote from wikipedia:

Quote:
Parallax had lain dormant for billions of years, its true nature hidden by the Guardians to prevent anyone from trying to free it. Being yellow in color, Parallax eventually came to be referred to as simply "the yellow impurity."

This was the reason why the rings were useless against the color yellow: Parallax weakened its power over the corresponding spectrum; hence only someone with the willpower to overcome great fear could master the power ring.


Also from DCGuide.com:

Quote:
Born at the beginning of sentience, Parallax is a yellow parasitic entity composed of living fear. The entity which feeds on fear threatened to consume the entire universe by infecting fear in every living creature, which would lead to violence and more fear making the entity stronger. Entire civilizations ended up destroying themselves from paranoia and the terror of Parallax, before the Guardians of the Universe decided that something had to be done.


Now I don't believe the creature itself is Parallax but the parasitic aspect of it is interesting.

Not off hand, they look like dates but those numbers could be anything. Where are they from?

Those are the file names of the .mp3s They're listed in play list order. I wasn't trying to be coy, I just wanted to present them unfettered to see if it rang any bells first.

The reason that Paramount does not want to upset the Saudi's is when you spend time in Hollywood you will see that many of the financiers of today's movies are from the House of Saud.

Next time you're at the Four Seasons or L'Ermitage in Beverly Hills see how long before a Saudi prince comes into the bar.

And yes, The Kingdom was unusual in that it took a critical look at what's going on in S.A.

A first.

But do not underestimate the power of the Saudi royal family, they are extremely rich and deeply connected everywhere, especially in Hollywood.

I doubt Mr. Abrams would want to spoil his relationships with potential money sources over an ARG.

Having said that, the whole AKAparallax thing is weird.

No doubt.

But I'll stand by it being OOG for the reasons above.

I know, I know. Stop Digging crap up that everybody hates. But there are few more odd details / coincidences that I have stumbled across.

The re-hack of the Tag site made me want to go back to the site I think holds clues. It's still giving off that reply. I can't suppose a game jacker would just keep sending a reply for this long without trying to twist this to his own end.

There's a phrase in the middle of the page

Edited

It's not part of the Sierra club doc that was copied to fill the content. A Google search of that phrase gets as its first result an article on aboutmyplanet.com by "edited". The article in question is called "edited". Its not really about oil or anything, but its filed under 'conspiracies' for some reason or another. The article doesn't actually talk about any conspiracy at all.

Edited doesn't really give much background info on her self, nor does she do much in the line of proofreading or coming up with any sort of consistency in her posts. She's been mildly active since joining on Aug 17, 2007.

The other clue that makes me think she's related to the AKAparallax site is the meta tag meta name="revisit-after" content="15 days". This is a specialized tag that has no real use. According to seoconsultants.com (http://www.seoconsultants.com/meta-tags/revisit-after.asp)

"It was developed for, and supported by, Vancouver Webpages and their local search engine searchBC."

And what is the only useful bit of biographical information that Edited gives us in her profile? That she was born and lives in B.C. Might be nothing. But it has the look of something. Any thoughts?

A Trail of Pollution

It's not part of the Sierra club doc that was copied to fill the content. A Google search of that phrase gets as its first result an article on aboutmyplanet.com by "Editted". The article in question is called "Cruise Ships Trail of Pollution". Its not really about oil or anything, but its filed under 'conspiracies' for some reason or another. The article doesn't actually talk about any conspiracy at all.

Editted doesn't really give much background info on her self, nor does she do much in the line of proofreading or coming up with any sort of consistency in her posts. She's been mildly active since joining on Aug 17, 2007.

I dunno. She could be a real college student/young environmentalist. I'd say- cautiously- oog for now. We need more confirmation, something that's directly and squarely IG, before we start stalking this young lady. Smile

Edit: to protect the innocent. Smile

There's no contact info for her at all. She doesn't seem to exist.

Update - I have found proof that this person is, in fact, real. I went ahead and took her name out of my posts and tried to stamp out the connection. No need to pester a real person in this silly game.
