WINDSOR — For months, residents of south and west Windsor have been wondering and worrying about vibrations of unknown origin.
And now, those mysterious rumblings under the city have found a new believer — the city’s Ward 10 Coun. Al Maghnieh, who says it’s time to start taking the phenomenon seriously.
“It’s very present and real,” he said.
Maghnieh added that those who think the phenomenon is a joke or that its proponents are “crazy” need to grasp the implications in terms of health and the environment.
“I mean, it’s actually scary to think that this is going on and we still can’t pinpoint what it is,” he said.
I can’t believe we’re still finding new animals in the water all around the world, wait, yes I can because we’ve only explored 70% of our oceans! I’m sure there are still hundreds if not thousands of new things to discover. Who’s up for an adventure?
The Proceedings of Royal Society B, 2011, is noting the discovery of a new species of fish. Their article is published here, and is entitled, “A ‘living fossil’ eel (Anguilliformes: Protoanguillidae, fam. nov.) from an undersea cave in Palau.”
Check this out! I’ve got a feeling we’re going to have a bigfoot body turn up anytime now. Sightings are happening more often than ever and with modern technology, it’s just a matter of time until one turns up!

For years, people have been searching for the fabled “lost Thunderbird photo” in vain… a mysterious photograph showing what appeared to be a gigantic bird or flying reptile nailed to the side of a barn.
The really strange thing is, hundreds of people can recall seeing the image either in a book, magazine, or a newspaper… but nobody has ever been able to produce the photograph. It’s almost as if it never really existed (If you’re not familiar with the subject of the Thunderbird photo, you can read up on the story here; it’s a fascinating mystery that continues to drive people bonkers)!
But perhaps the mystery is one step closer to being solved. This morning Loren Coleman of Cryptomundo.com brought this photo to the world’s attention:
So what is the origin of this photograph of some kind of giant flying reptile (not a “Thunderbird”) with humans?
The appearances are here and here, but they give no info on the actual source.
Actually, this is just the latest entry in the running for the “lost Thunderbird photo.” There have been other Thunderbird photos that have cropped up on the internet in the past, all of which have been proven as a hoax. Here are a few of them.
So the question is, where did this new photo originate? Is it from some forgotten book? Another hoax? Or… could this actually be the long lost Thunderbird photo so many people recall having seen?
Amsterdam was the scene of a strange UFO sighting when an object fell from the sky during broad daylight on August 5, 2011. The descent of the falling object was captured on a video that lasts longer than four minutes.
The UFO is nearly the same shade of gray as the skies that surround it, but slightly darker. It is vaguely spherical in shape and moves downward at a fairly slow rate of speed.
The YouTube user who posted this video described the UFO as follows: “Watch an object that otherwise gets routinely dismissed as a Chinese lantern morph into something completely different.” The video is from the YouTube channel theInterzone.
In the video, you can see that the object disappears behind a large building. It doesn’t appear to have any lights or other illumination. From the way the object moves, it does appear that its trajectory is being affected by the wind.
(Springfield, MO) — The Ozark Mountain Paranormal Investigation Team has explored some of the areas most haunted homes.
Their skeptical team members always take hundreds of pictures in the dark.
But their most recent trip brought back a shocking image that is making believers out of the biggest of skeptics.
“The first thing I want to do is disprove it.” says Robert McCall, skeptic and co-founder of the Ozark Mountain Paranormal Investigation Team.*
Robert spends a lot of time disproving apparent haunting in the region. “A lot of times people think there is a presence in the room and it turns out the room is where the breaker box is. Or your meters on the outside of the wall and there is a lot of energy there. Sometimes people think they are hearing things and it turns out they are just hearing things.”
But something that happened during his latest ghost hunt left Robert with no explanation. A family in north Springfield contacted the group because of some odd things that were happening.
“All the lights were shut off and the doors were locked,” says Robert. ” I came around to lock up the front door and as soon as I turned the corner I heard a growling disturbance on my EVP and seen something darker then dark move around in the hallway so I just started taking pictures of a completely dark hallway with nobody there.”
There was no one in the hallway but something else showed up on camera.
“When I first seen the picture, I saw a reaper,” says McCall. “Typical of what you would think.” Now it almost looks like a mother and child.”

Such a weird defect of the human hearing system that I had to put it up here.
Telegraph.co.uk writes:
Stephen Mabbutt, 57, from Charlton, near Banbury, could also hear his own heart beating.
Mr Mabbutt first experienced symptoms six years ago, when he felt a dull ache in the side of his head.
GPs treated him with nasal sprays and antibiotics, but his hearing deteriorated. Mr Mabbutt was eventually diagnosed with an unusual ear condition in which sounds inside the body are heard very loudly. The condition meant that the noise from chewing food became deafening.
His symptoms worsened to the extent where loud noises caused dizziness and his vision blurred.
Mr Mabbutt told the BBC: “When I raised my voice I could hear it reverberating in my head and the vibrations made my vision vibrate.
“Eventually I could hear my heart beating and my eyes moving in their sockets. It was really distracting.”
A mysterious circle on a grainy scan, this is what scientists are claiming is finally evidence that Earth has been visited by aliens.
Researchers have claimed the fuzzy outline is a flying saucer that ended up 300ft down on the ocean floor between Sweden and Finland.
They were stunned when sonar scans taken while searching for a century-old wreck showed up the shape against the dirt.
UFO? Sonar scans taken while searching for a century-old shipwreck on the ocean floor between Sweden and Finland showed up this fuzzy outline
The ocean exploration team which found it claims that the earth around the craft has been scarred, suggesting it has tried to move around.
Lead researcher Peter Lindberg also suggested that another explanation could be that it was ‘a new Stonehenge’.
The ‘discovery’ has sparked a flurry of speculation by UFO watchers and bloggers.
Some have even suggested it resembles the Millennium Falcon from the Star Wars series, with its distinctive front forks and round shape.
Newspapers in Sweden have put the story on their front pages and asked if this is really the first sign of extra-terrestrial life.
The shape was found at the bottom of the Gulf of Bothnia during a search for a sunken wreck which contained several cases of champagne.

Mr Lindberg said it was large and about 60ft in diameter and clearly visible on the sea bed.
‘You see a lot of weird stuff in this job, but during my 18 years as a professional I have never seen anything like this. The shape is completely round,’ he said.
He added that the scars on the earth surrounding it could show where the craft landed and skidded along.
Now, however, his team do not have the money or resources to examine the shape further.
If it does turn out to be a UFO it will be priceless, but if it is just a shape, it will be worthless.
