American Sasquatch Hunters: Bigfoot in America

A new film is set to be released which takes a look at the modern day search for Bigfoot and the Bigfoot hunters on the search. American Sasquatch Hunters: Bigfoot in America will include such leading Bigfoot researchers as Dr. Jeff Meldrum, Tim E. Cassidy, Eric Altman, Billy Willard, Stan Gordon, Steve Kulls, and David P. Dragosin. The film promises a look inside the psyche of these Sasquatch hunters and some of the modern technology being used to search for the illusive creature. Find out which aspects of Sasquatch, theories, and facts they believe in and don’t believe in. The film is being produced by Warren Croyle and J. Michael Long and released by Reality Entertainment. This looks like a very interesting film and should be of interest to most Bigfoot believers and skeptics alike.

Was Stonehenge an ancient burial ground?

The world's most famous prehistoric monument may have begun life earlier than thought as a giant burial ground, new research has found.

Archaeologists revealed today that more than 50,000 cremated bone fragments, of 63 individuals buried at Stonehenge have been excavated.

The study has also found when Stonehenge was built it was the 'Glastonbury of its time' with ancient people flocking from across Britain in their thousands to celebrate the winter solstice.

Experts suggest people gathered at the site each year to build the monument and celebrate with massive communal feasts.

The findings overturn the belief that Stonehenge was built as an astronomical calendar or observatory, Professor Mike Parker Pearson from University College London said.

Dating the bones has pushed back the date of the earliest stone circle at the site from 2500BC to 3000BC. Prof Pearson now believes the earliest burials long predate the monument in its current form. Continue reading at Daily Mail

Do you believe in Bigfoot?

What is it about Bigfoot or Sasquatch that interests me, I mean people, so much? What is it about this mythical creature that has spawned myriad searches, articles, websites and even its own television series?

Bigfoot has never been captured but thousands of sightings occur each year. The descriptions are varied: some say he is 7 feet tall, others believe he is at least 14 feet tall. Some say he is black. Others swear he is brown. A few think he weighs 300 pounds: others are convinced he is an 800-pounder. A few things everyone agrees on: he is ape like; furry and walks vertically with his long, ape arm in full swing. Eye witnesses also claim they hear thunderous noises from the brush before spotting him, or it, or maybe even, her.

Bigfoot sightings have been around for more than 400 years although he wasn’t officially named until 1957. No one has ever captured the bipedal creature. He remains elusive to this day. His roaming is not indigenous to the United States either. Big foot has been spotted in Australia, and other countries, while apparently migrating and living on deer and vegetation.

A few years ago while visiting Yellowstone National park, our tour guide told us of a time when Bigfoot sightings were running rampant through the national park. Park rangers, having heard enough to form an unofficial investigative team, began tracking Bigfoot. Turns out, the sightings were nothing more than a college student in a costume. A situation, park officials said, could have become dire if someone had elected to shoot at “Bigfoot” in an effort to prove the species existence.

Bigfoot hoaxes are commonplace. Many tapes and pictures have been taken and posted on the internet as proof of the species existence, only to be later determined as fake.

The top twenty most common places for Bigfoot sightings are: Estes Park, Colorado; Georgia; Mount St. Helens area; Lembo Lake, New York; Quebec; Mantee County, Florida; the Ukraine: Siberia; Ketichan, Alaska; Marble Mountain, California; Ontario, Canada; Nova Scotia; Poland; Eastern Texas and Bluff Creek, Utah.

Don’t despair, Tennessee has its share of Bigfoot stories too.

The last account of Bigfoot in Tennessee featured the manlike ape looking in a window and “aping” the homeowner’s movements!

After reading numerous accounts; watching some on-line videos and reading some stories, there were a couple of things I gleaned from the Bigfoot tales: there is always a lot of noise in the brush, woods, or forest before the actual sighting.

Secondly, no one ever seems to be frightened by Bigfoot. He doesn’t seem to be aggressive or confrontational, usually just meandering off when spied.

I decided to poll the students, second through tenth graders, at the TAD Center regarding their beliefs in Bigfoot. Literally, one half believes: the other half placed him in the same category as Santa, the Tooth Fairy and the Easter Bunny.

Regardless of whether you believe in Bigfoot or not, you have to admit it is fascinating on some level. Sort of like the Loch Ness Monster. But that is another monster for another day. - Crossville Chronicle

Rare black seal pup found

It was discovered weak and underweight on Aberdeen beach last month by a member of the public. The mammal, named Liquorice, is a grey seal although his coat is jet black, said to be unusual for a seal of his kind.

The Scottish SPCA is rehabilitating the six-week-old pup at its National Wildlife Rescue Centre in Fishcross near Alloa.

Meanwhile an injured seal caught in a fishing line has been rescued at the Isle of May in the Firth of Forth. Staff at the Scottish Seabird Centre spotted the seal in distress on Monday, using interactive cameras, and are now caring for it.

Experiencer Changes Mind - Aliens Are Demons

As regular readers know, I rarely to never talk about the perception of some folks that UFO's are demonic entities (this includes Orbs too). But, today I will present someone who thinks exactly that based on her EXPERIENCE.......... Hmm. Let's see why she says that.......

Oh my, where do I begin. First, she had the `typical' alien abduction scenario - on the table in the spaceship gig. Seems this lady then began embracing the UFO movement for 17 years to the point of meeting the big stars of UFOlogy - including the ones that say that aliens are demons (well, I should say finding the book which could indeed be government BS disinfo that says such by Nick Redfern). (BTW, I and Nick got `into it' at my blog about the book when it came out.) Along with `physical' evidence - including combining the missed periods of women in the 40's going thru the change of life - into being aborted by the aliens in their spaceship.
