Searching for signs of after life via electronic voice phenomena
Nearly every Friday night, a team of self-described ghost hunters hits the cemetery and spookiest spots in Tracy to look for signs of life after death. They call themselves Project Mayhem, and so far, they've haven't had a face-to-face meeting with anything that even resembles a quivering, howling ectoplasm or ghost - unless you consider the strange, soft whisperings of unseen people as evidence of contact with another world…

Transforming the alchemists
Historians of science are taking a new and lively interest in alchemy, the often mystical investigation into the hidden mysteries of nature that reached its heyday in Europe in the 16th and 17th centuries and has been an embarrassment to modern scientists ever since…
Mysterious black soot covers back yards
The Ontario Ministry of the Environment is working on finding a source for heavy black soot which has blackened back yards across north-east Hamilton. Ministry spokesman John Steele said yesterday a definitive source for the material has not been determined yet…
The truth about what's really outdoors
The hot, muggy days of August are traditionally a slow time for outdoorsmen. Fishing is only fair, there's almost no hunting, and the humidity is enervating. Which makes now a good time to relax in an air conditioned room, sip a beverage of your choice, and do some deep thinking.

SETI urged to fess up over alien signals
Alien hunters today pounded the SETI (Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence) Institute here with e-mails and phone calls, following claims made this weekend that the organization has covered up the detection of signals from space…
No conflict between religion and the paranormal
Here are the rest of Julian Qua's questions about my work in parapsychology or psychic research: What is the Inner Mind Development Institute? It is a small organization I established in 1988 aimed at expanding people's consciousness and hastening their evolution.

Man lifts car to save teen
Tucson, Arizona resident Tom Boyle lifted a car with his bare hands to save a young fellow trapped underneath it. Kyle Holtrust, 18, was riding his bike in Tucson when the Camaro hit him and he was dragged for 20 or 30 feet. Boyle and his wife happened to be driving by when the accident occurred. "I didn't believe what I saw," Boyle said Thursday. "I didn't believe it until my wife said something, and I was just like, 'Oh my God.' You think things like that only happen in movies...."

Johor Bigfoot photos: still nothing
Why is the Malaysian situation at such a stalemate? What the February Johor footprint (above) tells us grows more confusing, but, at least, it is in hand. As of the last day of July 2006, still no photographs of the unknown hairy hominoids reportedly taken in Johor, Malaysia, have been shown publicly, shared with the scientific community, or published. Drawings, yes, exist, but you will be spared seeing those again here…

Quack doctor had the motive to be Jack the Ripper
That was the headline in 2002 when Democrat and Chronicle colleague John Pitcher wrote about a possible breakthrough in the most infamous murder case of all time: the murders and mutilations of prostitutes in the East End of London in 1888, attributed to an unknown assailant known only as Jack the Ripper…
