I sent my first propose with 3 trials by 10 sets in each, on Monday to JREF but still haven’t got any reply so far. During this week I have been testing my self in this “new way” and I made my decision and I hope the JREF would like test that proposed by me, same as the condition that would make testing possible in nearest weeks. I would be comfortable with this test and sure, my results will speak for them self’s.
Here is my new propose, that I have sent today. Hopefully I will get the reply soon so we can star tat least any negotiation and make the test itself in nearest time.
Dear Alison,
I have sent you on Monday the propose for the testing of claimed by me ability. Have not received any answer so far, and not sure if you received it at all, and it just in process of reviewing by MDA team. I would appreciate if you could just send me a small note when you receive my emaisl.. something like..” I have received it, thank you, will get back to you as soon as possible…” So at least I would know that it was received and would wait for the answer. I understand that my letters in not the only ones that you get, but as I said would appreciate if you could at least confirm when you receive it. I have been testing myself for the past week and made my decision (upon my results) about the test that would be comfortable for me to perform. I would appreciate if MDA team could review it and we could start at least any negotiation in order to make possible to have Test in nearest week, cause as I said before I would like to have test while I am in USA and I am not permanently living here and planning to leave country by the end of the summer. In the proposal I have listed the conditions that would allow me to perform my ability in the best way.
Here it is.
Propose of the protocol to test my claiming powers.
Based on the testing with 30 sets of photos (by 5 photo in each set.) TWO TRIALS
Without looking in any possible- physical ways in side of the sealed envelope, just by holding it between my hands, I will be able to identify the photo that will be inside and will name it.
In order to be able to demonstrate such abilities I need to be able to perform two trials. As having 2 trials significantly reduce stress level for me in comparence to 1 and the only trial for the testing of claimed by me abilities.
During 2 trials with 30 sets in each trial, in one of them I will get at least 20 correct out of 30 photos to which I will offer my guess. If I get less than 20 correct in any of 2 trials, I accept that I was not able to perform my abilities successfully under/according the conditions and the protocol that was agreed before the test by both sides such as Myself and JREF and that the test results are negative. With 20 or more correct photos in any of three trials, the test result is positive.
Materials required:
Materials for each set of 5 photos: 5 highly distinguishable photographs, with a unique name for the image. 5 identical small envelopes. 5 identical Manila envelopes.
150 photographs for each trial 3.5 x 5 inches printed from the files that I will assemble in advance. (300 for 2 trial)
150 letter sized envelopes for each trial. (300 for 2 trial)
150 larger manila envelopes for each trial. (300 for 2 trial)
Paper sheets with the list of the photos that will be used in sets.
Drawing book with plain pages. (In order to be able if necessary to draw the visions that I will see during the test)
Environment stipulations:
No talking or any kind of distraction with light or sound or any other ways of interruption during the test. No photography during the test will be allowed as the flash or the sound produced by the camera can be distracting.
No trickery, or cheating from either Pavel or JREF or other parties present in room during the test. The environment should be established to give me the best chance of success and JREF the assurance that my abilities are real.
No substance with a strong odor will be allowed in the room same, include people who might use perfume that has strong odor and that can cause distraction during the concentration and a headache due to the strong smell.
It is important that in the room where the test will be held, there should be NO photos or pictures of any kind on the walls or anywhere near me and visible to me.
What Will Constitute a Successful Test:
If I am able to identify 20 or more photos in any of 2 trials out of 30 pairs of sealed envelopes (drawn by me from 30 sets of 5, by two from each set) just by holding it between my hands, the test will be successful.
(If the calculations is correct than in order to beat 1000 odds and pass the preliminary test, out of 30 sets in trial I need to identify 20 times at least one photo exactly in order correct out of 2 to which I will offer my “answer”. Or 7 pairs out of 30 should be named both correct and in exact order.)
List of the photographs. (I might still change some of the photos)
1. The cross
2. Ship “Titanic”
3. Egyptian pyramids
4. Photo of the Planet Earth
5. Landscape with sunset
Preparation:
By a third party in a separate room all the pictures that are used in the testing will be placed into letter sized envelopes and then place the letter sized envelopes into larger manila envelopes.
For each run there, shell be prepared separate set of envelopes, in order to save time in replacing photos in the new envelopes and reshuffling them.
For each run:
1. Each of the five photos is placed in a different small envelope and sealed.
2. These 5 small envelopes are shuffled sufficiently in order to lose track of which is which.
3. Each of these small envelopes is placed in a different manila envelope and sealed.
4. The 5 manila envelopes are shuffled sufficiently in order to lose track of which is which.
Thirty sets according to conditions described above have to be prepared for each trial.
The envelopes will be checked for marks, folds, creases etc by JREF representatives before being brought into the test room.
Test settings:
1. The photos will be placed in envelopes in separate room by a third party with the supervision of a JREF representatives who will make sure that there will be no interference in the process of preparation of the photo pairs for the test.
2. After I am situated, ready, and comfortable, I will cover my eyes with a mask and my ears with the plugs and will have 10 minutes to get ready and relax.
After that, the testing shell begin, and one random set of 5 shell be handed to me.
3. I would need up to 2 minutes to hold each envelope. (Though usually it take about 40-45 minutes for 10 runs including brake of 5 minutes between every 5 sets)
The test.
The envelopes arranged by the sets, will be prepared to be used in test.
The person will give me the envelopes of the current set of 5, with no words or any other sound signs that would in any way suggest or define the order of the envelopes of the set that will be handed to me.
I will hold each of the five sealed manila envelopes in turn, and choose the two that I get the strongest image on. (Each envelope I might hold up to 2 minutes).
I will take the mask off and offer my answer for the two photos that will be chosen by me.
I will offer my answer by writing the name of the image on each of these two envelopes or draw the image on top of each envelope and name it a laud.
After the writing/ drawings will be finished and the answers was announced, I will hand the envelopes back to the third party. The third party will open the envelopes in front of everyone including me* and will reveal the photo that was inside. Then the result will be recorded as either correct or incorrect by the JREF or any other party who will be in the room. ( Or I will open the envelopes my self and reveal the photos).
After the two photos was revealed, matched to my answers and the results as either correct or incorrect have been made, all of the envelopes from current set, shell be removed from the table and the new set should be placed on the table.
The same procedure will be done with all 30 sets of photos in every trial, until the last envelope will be identified by me and my answer will be announced.
I would need 5 minutes brake between each 5 photo sets.
I would need 10 minutes brake between every 10 sets.
I would need 15 minutes brake between first and second trial.
After two trials by 30 runs will be complete, the JREF representative will announce the results for the Preliminary Test as either Positive or Negative.
Remarks:
* I need to know the result of my answer immediately after I name the photos. I need this because, when I hold the envelopes I am trying to foresee what will I actually see when the photo will be revealed. By asking myself – “What picture will I see when the envelope will be open”. For this reason, it is important for me and necessary to see the actual photo immediately after I offer my answers during the test.
Notes:
1. No talking (or signaling!) during the test from any person who will be present in room.
2. No text messaging or phone calls allowed, as the sms and call alerts can distract my concentration and affect the result of my answer. (The smsing during the test is not permitted either, as the sound of the constantly clicking buttons can be very irritating and distracting). For that reason, all mobile phones in the room, must be switched to a silent mode to eliminate interruptions of the testing. If anyone needs to make calls or sms, it can be done during the brake between runs
3. Any person that is present at the testing may raise his or her hand during the demonstration to inform the others of suspicious behavior of anyone in the room. However, no shouting or interruptions will be allowed during the process of identifying the photo. If there are any doubts or suspicions, the person shall raise his/her hand silently and inform the others after I have finished with identification of the current photo and announced my answer.
I would prefer:
1. I want to do the test in the United States, in Charlotte, North Carolina to avoid traveling that can affect my state due to the road sickness or the climate change. Testing should be done in the presence of objective people which both as JREF and I can trust. I want to be able to approve the people that are present during the testing, e.g. it can’t be more than 10 people in the room during the test.
2. I want to bring with me a friend Vladimir Sirovitskiy who will be present at the testing as a support.
After the test will start, there will be no talking or any kind of communication between us until the test will be complete and the last photo will be identified and announced.
3. I also would like Dr. Eric D. Heggestad, and Dr. Linda Shanock, the academics that tested me to produce affidavit letters for application for the challenge, to be present during the test (if they are able to attend it) as the independent parties and witnesses–supervisors.
4. I would like the testing to take place in the afternoon, as I would need time to have rest and sleep enough hours and get ready for the test. (As due to the stress with the upcoming test I might have a problem to sleep) For example, it can start at 1 pm where I will arrive at 12 noon, an hour before.
5. I would prefer the weather conditions to be good at the day of testing, as I am sensitive to the low atmospheric pressure and often get headaches, feel low and tired when it is cloudy and the atmospheric pressure is low.

As I said above, I would appreciate if we could start negotiation in order to make testing possible in nearest time. I understand that I am sort of annoying and I am not the only one claimant that MDA dealing with… I am just concerned about time. I know that testing can be done in UK or elts where… but I am sure it would be easier to make in United states as in UK or Malta or Russia it would take more time in order to set up place time and find people to be able to test me.
Sincerely yours,
Pavel
from the other hand.. I thought it would be better as for me same for JREF to be tested while I am here.. as here is there “home” so it would be easier arrange test and place etc.. than let say in UK or as I said in Malta where I will be after US. Any ways.. we cant turn time back.. so I will come to US again.. as soon as we agree on all.
