The reviews were helpful to making corrections to the essay. Now, about the double spaced throughout, the essay was double spaced, however when I pasted it to the discussion board some of the format was changed. I don't know why but it did. The font type is Courier New, the information provided said that Times New Roman or Courier would work for a proper font use in the essay. I did not see where there were any limitations, in the course information, that only Times New Roman could be used. I have already fixed most of the problems with my paper. I thank everyone for the reviews. Good luck everyone on you essay.

Sources of Essay 2
Talking to Heaven by James Van Praagh
PSI by Louisa E.Rhine
"A Haunting" (Television series on Discovery Channel)

The above three sources are going to be the sources of which I will use. These are all good, informative sources. Talking to Heaven by James Van Praagh reveals the authors life experiences as a medium. He tells about his childhood experiences of having medium-like abilities. The he goes on to tell how he improved them. That is far enough into that book, or there wouldn't be any sense in writing a paper about it.

PSI by Louisa E.Rhine basically covers all elements of psychic abilities. The book is divided into different sections that explain the different areas of PSI. Each section, especially my section of use (section 5) has multiple real-life examples and explanations. Very detailed and descriptive, it also makes, simply, a good and intriguing book. Actually, I would suggest to anyone that both of the above books are very interesting to read.

"A Haunting" (Television series on Discovery Channel) is, supposedly, based on eye witness accounts. If this is true then the series will make a good addition to information in my paper. Many of the shows apply pretty well to my choice of the essay options.


I did discover a book entitled Mysterious Kentucky by B.M. Nunnelly. It is a very intriguing book to read on free time. The book tells of some of the most exotic and unheard of sightings and encounters. It doesn't help me with this essay but it might you. Good luck everyone.
