Big Borneo Bigfoot prints
The Borneo Post is reporting on Friday the 13th of June, 2008, on the find of some incredible footprints. Even my colleague Mark A. Hall has only talked about “True Giants” in that corner of the world with tracks in the range of 22 inches long. What are we to make of the following imprint, said to measure 47 inches long?..
We may all be space aliens: study by Marlowe Hood
Genetic material from outer space found in a meteorite in Australia may well have played a key role in the origin of life on Earth, according to a study to be published Sunday.
European and US scientists have proved for the first time that two bits of genetic coding, called nucleobases, contained in the meteor fragment, are truly extraterrestrial...
Ghost hunter weekends and paranormal tourism
The travel and tourism industry is always evolving. What was popular with tourists yesterday may not be popular with them today. What is consistent is tourists desire to do something or see something different. Eco-tourism and adventure tourism have become a major trend in the travel industry. Over the past years we have also seen the rise of niche market holidays that have been tailor-made to appeal to individual’s hobbies and interests such as gourmet and cooking vacations, garden tours or scuba holidays. Add to the mix a decidedly different kind of tourist – the ghost hunter...
The Love Song of Ardis J. Stembridge
Richelle Hawks: I have ghost hunting on the brain lately. I've been noticing how pervasive it all is. Not only is traditional religion historically, and now, modernly interwoven into the fabric of the ghost tapestry--the entire ghost hunting tableaux is most definitely in the process of developing its own independent religious-style mythos...
Pilot's flight remains a mystery
Thirty years ago, a young pilot took a trip into the unknown from which he would never return. On Oct. 21, 1978, Frederick Valentich filed a flight plan with an airport in Melbourne, Australia. He was headed to King Island in Tasmania. Valentich was only 20 years old with about 150 hours of flight experience. His plane was a small, single-engine Cessna 182L...
Christian theologians prepare for extraterrestrial life
Little green men might shock the secular public. But the Catholic Church would welcome them as brothers. That's what Vatican chief astronomer and papal science adviser Gabriel Funes explained in a recent article in L'Osservatore Romano, the newsletter of the Vatican Observatory (translated here). His conclusion might surprise nonbelievers. After all, isn't this the same church that imprisoned Galileo for saying that the Earth revolves around the sun? Doesn't the Bible say that God created man -- not little green men -- in his image?..
Stonehenge: ancient megalithic site holds secret to Earth’s turbulent past
Computer systems analyst Dean Talboys has unlocked a previously overlooked aspect of an ancient megalithic site in Wiltshire, England, which indicates a major catastrophic event at the end of the last Ice Age 13,000 years ago that could have been caused by the rapid decline of the polar ice caps...
Spirit message convicts paedophile
A 61-year-old man was sent to prison yesterday (12 June) because the dead grandmother of one of his victims revealed to medium Patrick Hutchinson (right) that the girl had been abused. He was convicted of five charges of indecently assaulting three girls aged from nine to 11 between 1997 and 2001...
High strangeness in high office: paranormal politics
The popular mind has always imagined that kings, dictators and other men and women of great power achieved their status and fame through means not available to most mortals, or if not, that they have availed themselves of the dark arts to remain ensconced in their lofty positions. Our personal vanity cannot conceive, in many cases, that our fellows may have achieved their stations through personal effort and merit, so the thought that they may have had a little assistance in getting there is always suggested...
Jurassic Park comes true: How scientists are bringing dinosaurs back to life with the help of the humble chicken
Deep inside the dusty university store room, three scientists struggle to lift a huge fossilised bone. It is from the leg of a dinosaur. For many years, this chunky specimen has languished cryptically on a shelf. Interesting but useless — a forgotten relic of a lost age. Now, with hammer and chisel poised, the academics from Montana State University in America gather round. They are about to shatter this rare vestige of the past. Why would they do such a thing?..
