# Psychic predicts violent storms, UFO visits for West&#13;
&#13;
by SHARON JENSEN    &#13;
A world known psychic living in Silverton has predicted a summer of unexplainable storms, power blackouts and multiple UFO sightings for the entire West Coast.  &#13;
&#13;
Ted Owens, acknowledged by some para-psychologists as "the world's foremost psychic," this week made the predictions and released the information to The Appeal and the Washington Post only.  &#13;
&#13;
According to Owens, known by scientists and government officials throughout the world as "PK Man" (for psychokinesis), the entire West Coast will be the target of the attentions of "Space Intelligences". (Owens shortens the term to "SI's")  &#13;
&#13;
Owens predicts that "The entire West Coast .......... from June 5 .......... through September .......... will have freakish power blackouts; lightning attacks and storms unusual at this time; and many UFO appearances plus EM (electro-magnetic) anomalies. The West Coast will, in effect be under the control of UFOs for this period of time."  &#13;
&#13;
Though Owens admits that most are "understandably skeptical", (he took exception to an article in a Salem daily) he says that it is this skepticism that brings the SIs to perform these demonstrations .......... to prove that "they" exist.  &#13;
&#13;
Ted, his wife Martha, and sons, Beau and Teddy, live at 433 S. First. He moved here, he said, to live a quiet life as a teacher. He feels that this is the work that the SIs had cut out for him and that his years of "demonstrating" were over. Apparently this is not so, for he says the SIs contacted him Friday night to tell him of their plans for the coast, from Northern Washington to the tip of Baja.  &#13;
