FRIEDMAN'S FORECAST
Sidney Sees All (or at least 68% of it)
 
2009 prognostications are now posted below.

Each year at New Year's time since 1996, Sidney Friedman (a.k.a. SidneySeer) has released predictions which have achieved a documented 68% accuracy (some years as high as 76% and never lower than 62%).  Plus, year after year, Friedman had nearly 100% success with his OSCAR predictions, missing only one.
 
Through the years these predictions have been covered by news and talk shows on CBS-TV, NBC-TV, ABC-TV, FOX-TV, WGN-TV and hundreds of radio programs.
 
PAST PREDICTION SUCCESS:
A 68% overall accuracy for 11 years of publicly stated prognostications, including:
1) Steve Fossett's successful circumnavigation of the globe in a balloon.
2) Obama winning the election, predicted pre-primaries, against all punditry at that time.
3) the landing point of Hurricane Floyd, predicted on CBS News.
4) Martha Stewart's legal troubles, predicted on ABC-TV'sTHE VIEW.
5)
Martin Scorsese’s Oscar in 2007 after being denied year after year (and SidneySeer is nearly 100% for all his Oscar predictions through the years).
6) This year’s drop in oil prices.
7) The prediction on FOX-TV stating "the Mississippi River will significantly change course" which it did following Hurricane Katrina and the levees breaking.
8) And many more.
The art of accurately sensing the future is rare and mystical.  Is he truly psychic, highly intuitive, or what?
 
Ironically, Friedman says about his predictions and the art of predicting: "Most of the future is unpredictable. That is as it should be. In fact, no one knows PRECISELY what will be. If we know exactly what will happen, the present would not exist. Also, to a large extent, we make the future.  But once in a while the curtain parts ever-so-slightly, revealing a glimpse of tomorrow's theater. We all get these hunches. Through a variety of techniques (explained in my book and seminar), I attempt to interpret what many of these impressions truly mean -- sometimes successfully, sometimes not. Always though, I keep the intention of releasing these predictions for fun and curiosity."
FRIEDMAN's FORECAST for 2009
released 12/21/08 (with additions on 12/30/08 and 1/1/09)
 
 
Here are this year’s predictions.
 
(The ECONOMY forecast is on a separate page.) 
 
IMPORTANT: This year, Sidney is also giving the images he receives (through his three prediction techniques) on which each prediction is based. The images Sidney receives are stated first (in Haiku form) followed by Sidney’s interpretation of what he believes the images mean:
1)
Floating wisp descends,
caught in a detective’s hand.
The chord is resolved.

I believe this means: A feather will solve a mystery.
 
2)
Nurse, tubes, monitors.
A home is where the house is
when roles are reversed.
I believe this predicts: Hugh Laurie (TV's Dr. House) will become a patient (in real life) in the hospital after a traffic accident.

3)
Virgo bee makes buzz.
She hears the cry and responds.
The gift of giving.
I think these images mean: Beyonce will save a life.

4)

Science nonfiction.
The great deceased re-emerge.
The birds and the breeze.
I believe this indicates: Through genetic engineering, a bird will be transformed into a dinosaur-like creature.
5)
It was always there.
My sweet embraceable you.
Lips on a helix.

This very possibly means: A "LOVE" gene will be discovered.
 
6)
Amphibious leap.
Nicholas, Joseph, Paul?
Hook, line and sinker.

Hmm, could this mean the following?: A "fish" will affect one of the Jonas Brothers.

 
7)
A gag not funny.
Red, white and blue caught in throats.
Oh say can you speak?

This may mean:A strange spate of coughing will occur in the U.S. House of Representatives.

 
8)
Goodness, warmth and slurps.
The smell permeates, sustains.
Ladle delivers.

These images may indicate: Soup will be the year's "hot" food.
 
9)
Set. Boom. Spot. Action.
Look! A spell is cast off script.
So where are they now?

Hard to believe this, but I think it means: A cast of actors will mysteriously drop out of the public eye.
 
10)
The game must go on.
Saucer, turmoil, outrage, hugs.
Farenheit rising.  
This one I hope won't happen: A major stadium fire will occur this year.
11)
Wrapped in quietude.
Ailment silences the notes.
Mimi sings me-me.

These images might mean: Mariah Carey’s voice will be put at risk from illness.
 
12)
Just a ghost remains.
Where did all the flowers go?
No need for census.

Again, this seems so unlikely, but I think it means:
A small town or two will disappear, though not from terrorism or disaster.
 
13)
Mischief, disruption.
Primate pandemonium.
A furry flurry.

This very possibly means:
A "gang" of monkeys will cause mayhem in ways not seen before.
 
14)
A minor conflict.
A guardian at issue.
A same-sex debate.

This may mean: A Gay divorce/custody battle will make the news.
 
15)
Commander’s outfit.
Someone to watch over “c.”
Internal secrets.
This set of images could indicate: President Obama will create a new "agency" to check on the CIA that will remain secret, perhaps even for several years.
 
16)
Destiny and hope.
Representatives protect,
then approach the bench.
I think this may mean: Miley Cyrus will get lawyered up and appear in court.
17)
Multiple outbreaks.
Return to the Testament?
Flexing and vexing.

I hope something like this does not occur, but I believe this means: There will be "plagues” that seem almost biblical throughout the world.
 
18)
Fervor blocks science.
Research thwarted. Seventeen.
Devout views intrude.

Hmm, this possibly indicates: Physics experiments will be sabotaged by religious zealots.
 
19)
East, headdress, sand, brink.
Extremist blaze upended.
Look! A young child smiles.

These impressions may mean:A terrorist attack in the middle east, possibly Dubai, will be thwarted in part by a child.
 
20)
A smell at shoreline
pervades in several spots.
Atlantic antic?

Seems strange, but this could mean: There will be a mysterious odor in several spots along the eastern seaboard.
 
21)
Prime Minister trapped.
Three moments of disbelief.
Russia sighs relief.
This possibly means: Vladimir Putin will cheat death three times.
 
22)
A Kodak moment
is mightier than the sword.
Voice. Hero. Hills. Gun.
This one is an Oscar prediction and it indicates: Among tough competition, Sean Penn will win the "Best Actor" award  for his work in the movie "Milk."
 
23)
No more rain delays.
The men in blue and white reign.
Diamond dream is real.

Here's the meaning: LOL. Every year I predict the CUBS will make it to the World Series, so I will again, and I'll keep predicting it until it happens.
 
 
Here are two images I foresee,
but have not discerned what they foretell:
 
24)
Autumn. Birds in flight.
A perfect diamond swirves, leaves.
When will they return?
 
25)
Wrapped with bellowed bows.
Renaissance. Clouds rise. Rays fall. 
The island erupts.
 
 
More impressions:
(added 1/1/2009)
 
26)
A Kodak moment.
Gold man held and hugged. Eyes well. 
Spanish rose honored.
This is another Oscar foresight: Penelope Cruz will be selected as Best Supporting Actress, her first Academy Award ever.
 
27)
The economy:
