New York (PRWEB) January 9, 2008 -- M V Consulting, Inc. announced today that the final numbers for the entire year of 2007 have been tabulated with phenomenal results. The Company's websites have grown at a remarkable pace, exceeding expectations and indicative of positive acceptance by internet users. In addition the Company's sites were involved with several promotions and events that could not be anticipated, and display the impact that has been made to date.

"2007 was a great year. The blogs of the company grew by over 100% in virtually every metric that can be identified. The give away contests sponsored by the company were well received, if predominantly regional. We were surprised and pleased to receive the opportunity to work with TV One on live coverage of the Heartland Presidential Forum on December 1st 2007. That's something you just can't predict and we are thrilled about it, while looking forward to working with TV One again in the future," stated M V Consulting, Inc. President Michael Vass.

Actual performance numbers are considered proprietary by the Company, but percentile growth and other metrics are available for the public. Some of the most important metrics are:

• Visitors to the site tend to be 41% men, and 59% women
  
  
• 46% of visitors tend to be between the ages of 25 - 54
  
  
• 51% of visitors are college educated, with 37% having no college education at all
  
  
• Visitors to Black Entertainment USA for the 12 months ending December 31st 2007 increased by 156%.
  
  
• Individual pages viewed by visitors on Black Entertainment USA increased by 367%
  
  
• The number of visitors from countries across the globe increased by 35%
  
  
• At the Vass site the breakdown was (this blog only existed for the last 4 months of 2006):
  
  
• Visitors for the full year increased by 5900%
  
  
• Individual pages viewed by visitors on Vass increased by 9700%
  
  
• While the number of countries remained relatively flat. The lack of growth in countries outside the USA may be attributable to the increased focus on the Presidential race and candidate's campaigns throughout 2007 as well as the limited time of existence in 2006.
  
  
  The M V Consulting, Inc. corporate homepage was launched in May 2007 and therefore has no comparative numbers. Growth was solid and comparable to the first 7 months of either blog, reaching on average 48 countries across the world.
  
  The Company also owns an online store which features 12 separate and distinct clothing lines, as well as providing custom designed mugs, mouse pads, Teddy bears, gift cards, journals, postage stamps and more. Individual sales figures for this division are not reported.
  
  Results of the Company's SEO division are not reported and considered proprietary.

$1000 for the holidays - run by M V Consulting Inc. with a $100 bonus added to the winning prize given to Cheryl W of New York State.

In addition to these contests, the company was contacted by TV One, which reaches 40 million people via its cable network channel. On December 1st 2007 TV One had a live webcast of the Heartland Presidential Forum, for which it selected 5 political bloggers to comment on live. Of the thousands of potential bloggers available, President Michael Vass was selected for his writing at the Vass blog, and was invited to join the event as one of the 5 bloggers.

TV One and M V Consulting, Inc. cross-promoted the event via the individual websites of each company.

Expect to see our clothing lines in colleges across the nation.

Expect more news on other events soon."

Are UFO's a joke or fact? How do you know?

**This can also be found at All American Blog where I am a contributing author.**

Not long ago, during a Democratic Presidential debate, Dennis Kucinich made a remarkable comment on national TV. He openly stated that he had seen a U.F.O. at some point in his life. This was taken as a light point in the debate, and was glossed over by the other candidates and major news media.

The shame is that this is not the first public figure to acknowledge that they had seen something that appears to be other than man-made in the skies. But little is made of such questions, and the government officially denies and disputes all such claims. The government points to its investigation called Project Blue Book, run by the Air Force from 1947 to 1969, that checked on 12,618 UFO reports. The official conclusion was that no evidence of space aliens or a super technology in operation existed. What is not mentioned is that fact that a percentage of all the investigations came back with no explanation whatsoever.

Because of the official conclusion the government has stated that there has been no event that gives reason to open up another Blue Book or other type of investigation. And in time we see that now private citizens are often ridiculed or chastised for claiming to see a UFO. Such has happened to the declaration of Mr. Kucinich.

But is he the only public official to see a UFO? Is he one of the “few” to have made a sighting? Is there really nothing for the government to check?

Well I submit that there was at least one thing that is an open question. In Phoenix in 1997, several thousand people observed for minutes slow moving, silent, lights over the city. Thousands of credible, professional, sane people. Including then-Arizona Gov. Fife Symington.



Is that enough to open an investigation? What if you add to this, Mr. Kucinich, and John Callahan a former Federal Aviation Administration investigator? There are also the reported sightings over O’Hare airport on November 7, 2006 which was seen by a group of United Airlines employees. This group included pilots and at least one supervisor. Also not least in this small group should be included Presidents Jimmy Carter and Ronald Reagan? Are they public enough and credible enough?

Well a panel of international pilots and former government officials believe so. And they are asking for an investigation.

For me, I think I summed it up best when I stated

“For the record I will mention that I do believe we are not alone in the universe. Other beings exist. It is complete arrogance and statistically impossible for there not to be other lifeforms. It is equally arrogant and impossible that all those other beings are less intelligent or advanced than ourselves. Given these probabilities it is possible that UFO’s exist and do visit the world.”

And what does it mean if not only are we not singular in the universe, but that we are also not the top of the chain? Infact what if we are, in spite of all our advances and technology, just barely on the scale of intelligent beings in the universe? A humbling thought.

But we deserve to know. We should know. Because just like Will Smith’s character in Men In Black, when faced with the fact that

“A thousand years ago everybody knew as a fact, that the earth was the center of the universe. Five hundred years ago, everybody knew that the Earth was flat, and fifteen minutes ago, you knew that humans were alone on it. Imagine what you'll know tomorrow.”

We can match the challenge and face the new perspective of the universe. Or are we like what Tommy Lee Jones’ Agent K stated

“A person is smart; people are dumb panicky dangerous animals and you know it.”

Personally I hope for the former. But we will never know if we don’t check.

But what do you think?
