Portal (band) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Lyrically, Portal's influences are broad, but have a general unifying theme of social consciousness, touching on issues as varied as the fallibility of the developed world's lending institutions, the afflictions of unhealthy obsessions, critical thought and expression, and the ignorance of a sheltered and largely oblivious North American society. Portal and its members have contributed to the independent arts community of which they are a part, in a number of ways (outside of the band's work with their label). Portal is an independent progressive metal band from Edmonton, Canada that originally took form in the Summer of 2000 as a studio project of lead singer and frontman Kenton Thomas. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Portal_(band)   (1174 words)

The Nazi UFO Enigma. Thule was therefore recognised as a place where humans could, by whatever means, ‘leave the earth’, it also reputedly stood at the portal of the ‘Hollow Earth’. The Vril society itself was founded in the city of Vienna in 1917 by a group of four people, one of whom, a medium, claimed to be channelling information, which included the ‘Magical, violet, black stone’, and the ‘Sphere of Destiny’, directly from extraterrestrials. The chief architect of the Thule Society was Baron Rudolph von Sebottendorff, sometimes referred to as Rudolf Glauer. www.fsr.org.uk /spi/nazinth.htm   (2080 words)

Thule (Eye of Force; Cloak & Dagger foe) In reality, the "Vril" were merely the demon elite of Mephisto, and Mephisto was leading Thule and his followers to sacrifice people in order to open a portal through which they might invade Earth. Mephisto manipulated Thule to sacrifice the necessary lives to open the Darkdoor for "the Vril." Thule came to believe that some of the Vril existed on Earth, and he wondered if Dagger might be one of them due to her energy powers and their affinity for the energies of the Schwarzraum. Thule told Tandy that the Vril welcomed the great potential these sensed in her, and he called her by her full name, despite the fact that she had never told them her last name. www.marvunapp.com /Appendix3/thuleeyeofforce.htm   (3767 words)
