Alabama: Hovering Classic Shaped UFO Accelerates Upward and Disappears
Alabama: Hovering Classic Shaped UFO Accelerates Upward and Disappears
A disc-shaped UFO was reported by an Alabama witness at Huguley. The mysterious object had two bright, tubular-shaped lights, according to the testimony filed at witness reporting database of Mutual UFO Network (MUFON). The report, which is lodged under Case 61372, states that the classic-shaped UFO hovered over nearby treetops.
The witness first saw the object when he was eastbound on the street near Huguley around 3 a.m. on 2nd November 2014. He saw the mysterious object going down at slow speed from the west. The object hovered above treetops along the side of the road for a few seconds. He said that during the strange event, he was on the straight part of the highway and no other traffic, so he clearly saw the object without distractions.
The report says that the witness saw the white lights very clearly, which were side-by-side on the bottom of the UFO and appeared to extend its whole length. However, the witness admitted that he did not saw the outline of the craft because it blended with the dark sky. The witness described the temperature as cool and mild with 45 or 50-degree range and it was only partly cloudy during that time.
The object hovered for perhaps 5 seconds before it went up into the southeast sky with tremendous speed and quickly disappeared, the report says. The witness explained that the disappearance was very quick like it swoop upwards without changing direction and disappeared.
VILLA OCAMPO, Durango– The owner of the “Don Isaac” ranch was startled last Thursday when he reached his property only to find that strange imprints had been found in a sorghum field – an area measuring 2,500 square meters (26,000 sq.ft.). Locals have attributed such events to extraterrestrial activity.
A UFO phenomenon occurred in a ranch of this locality, flattening the sorghum crop and forming circles and triangles in other sections.
An abnormal phenomenon took place at Rancho Don Isaac, 7 kilometers distant from the community of Villa Ocampo. Two sections of the sorghum crop were flattened by an unidentified flying object, leaving circular and triangular within the flattened cropland. [Note: this is speculation on the part of the author, as no object was witnessed - SC]
By Erick Moreno – El Heraldo de Chihuahua
This change was inflicted upon a quarter of a hectare (0.68 acres). How this was done remains a mystery, as neither the owner nor his wife can come up with an explanation. Both of them witnessed the field's condition on Thursday, November 6.
[The plants] were neither cut nor broken, but simply bent – an impossibility for an animal or an atypical wind current. The sorghum plants that remained standing on the rims of the circle stood approximately 1.60 meters and showed no appreciable changes that could suggest the nature of the event, according to the rancher.
It was shown the sorghum could not be easily bent, as Victor Rodríguez, the owner, took a sizeable amount [of sorghum] in both arms and tried to bend
it and flatten it to the ground. When he let go of it, it returned to its upright position, unlike the others. Thus, human strength cannot be said to have been involved in this case.
Around 12 to 16 bundles of grass – in their original position – could be seen within the affected area, which displayed circular and triangular shapes that would be difficult to create with heavy machinery.
Another section – similarly flattened – could be seen no more than 10 meters away. This could be the object's possible second landing site, judging by the condition of the stalks, as a specific section showed how the croplands were parted to form a sort of exit path.
There were circular traces at the location of the bundles, as if they had been dragged, forming a counterclockwise line and creating a perfect silhouette that did not affect the standing crops.
The owner noted that he had not visited the pace for days, as the heavy rains hindered any approach to the ranch. On November 6, he went in with water from his own well to feed the animals. It was then that he became aware of the changes suffered by his crops.
There was no sign of vehicles or tire-marks that could have caused the situation. Furthermore, the area was completely fenced with barbed wire, which showed no alterations through which a prankster could have broken in.
[The event] was not considered an act of vandalism, as the owner keeps two farm animals at the site, and these were not affected or showed signs of having been tampered with by a person foreign to the ranch. There was no evidence of material theft.
Phenomena of this sort have occurred in different parts of the world over time, prompting their investigation by scientists, master mathematicians and people involved with the paranormal or the esoteric.
It should be noted that the oldest recorded of a crop circle can be found in England, published in a pamphlet called “The Mowing Devil” on 22 August 1678, with an illustration showing a demon cutting a wide circle in the crops.

Wondere Wetenschap In Hollywood halen de wetten van het spektakel het meestal van de fysica. Niet zo in Interstellar, de nieuwe scifi-film van Christopher Nolan. Om geen fouten tegen de natuur te maken nam Nolan een fysicus onder de arm. Speciaal voor de 'Interstellar' ontwikkelde niemand minder dan Kip Thorne een zwart gat in de computer. Wat hij daarin ontdekte, verblufte iedereen, ook de wetenschap.
'Interstellar', de nieuwe film van regisseur Christopher Nolan ( cf. Memento, Inception) speelt zich af in de toekomst. De aarde is volledig uitgeput en het menselijk ras moet op zoek naar een nieuwe uitvalsbasis. Die vindt het in een nieuw zonnestelsel. De manier om daar te geraken is via een wormgat: een gat in de ruimte dat het - hypothetisch gezien - toelaat een afstand van lichtjaren af te leggen in een mum van tijd.
Om die theorie van zwarte gaten en wormgaten realistisch in beeld te brengen, riep Nolan de hulp in van Kip Thorne, de fysicus die samen met Stephen Hawking de wormgattheorie binnen die van de relativiteitstheorie uitwerkte.
Om de zwarte gaten in de film zo realistisch mogelijk in beeld te brengen, sloeg Thorne aan het rekenen: hij werkte een aantal vergelijkingen uit die het theoretische pad beschrijven van lichtstralen die op een wormgat of zwart gat invallen.
Volgens de relativiteitstheorie is de massa in een zwart gat onder invloed van de verbogen tijd en zwaartekracht zo compact dat alles wat in haar buurt komt onverbiddelijk wordt opgeslorpt. Niets, ook licht niet, kan daarna nog opnieuw uit het zwarte gat ontsnappen. Het licht dat rakelings langs de oppervlakte van het zwarte gat scheert, buigt door de kracht van de zwaartekracht af, zodat het rond het gat heen loopt, als een soort van lichtgevende schijf.
Lichtvervorming
Om de exacte fysische opslorping en afbuiging van die lichtstralen filmisch in beeld te brengen, schakelde Thorne niet alleen de hulp van algebra in, maar liet de filmcrew op basis van zijn berekeningen ook de exacte omstandigheden voor hun filmisch plot berekenen.
"Op bepaalde frames van 24 seconden in filmtijd, hebben wetenschappers en informatici honderd uur gerekend, maar het resultaat is verbluffend", liet fysicus Lieven Scheire enthousiast horen in 'Café Corsari'. "Wat je ziet in beeld is natuurkundig volledig juist, heel de lichtvervorming rond het zwarte gat klopt."
Wetenschap en film
De beelden van Interstellar zijn dus expliciet gebaseerd op Einsteins relativiteitstheorie. Dat in combinatie met de juisteinput van gegevens en berekeningen is uniek. Die expliciete verbeelding van de theoretisch bestaande wormgaten bleek zelfs zo uniek, dat Thorne ook zichzelf en de wetenschap verbaasde met de resultaten. Uit de mooie filmische resultaten volgt binnenkort dan ook een wetenschappelijk publicatie. Compleet met beelden uit de film als 'stichtend' voorbeeld.
"Terwijl fysici zich normaliter alleen bezig houden met de theorie en de wiskundige berekeningen achter natuurkundige verschijnsels, is dit de eerste keer dat er ook echt tastbaar getoond wordt wat je echt zou zien wanneer je een zwart gat zou tegenkomen", zegt Scheire.
Wetenschap en film verbroederen in Interestellar en de resultaten van die samenwerking bleken werkelijk 'buitenaards'.

Sorry, "Destroyed"!
Sorry, "Destroyed"!
John Greenewald:
"Harry Rositzke was an American spymaster whose career included researching the origins of the English language to probing the inner workings of Nazi Germany and, later, the Soviet Union. For 25 years, he ran CIA covert operations against the Soviet Union from several overseas posts as well as Washington.
Rositzke was rumored to be known as "The Falcon" -- the head of a private group called the "Aviary" which comprised of individuals with ties to the intelligence community. It is rumored that this group was responsible for leaking the original MJ-12 documents, and Rositzke, known as the "Falcon", was the head.
So, I filed a FOIA Request for Rositzke's FBI file, and received a few pages back that were from the early 1960s. They showed that an FBI informant, or maybe just a do-good citizen, wanted to offer up some information on Rositzke. It is unknown exactly who this person was, or what they wanted to offer the FBI.
In the FBI's FOIA response, they said there could be more pages responsive to my request (meaning, there was more on Rositzke) and I should file a FOIA for the rest; which I did.
After months of waiting, I received a letter from the FBI that the rest of Rositzke's file was completely destroyed on June 15th, 1987.
I have requested a lot of FBI Files in my time, on all sorts of characters, and out of all of them, the alleged MJ-12 members, and those connected to it, have a high number of files destroyed by the FBI.
Coincidence? Maybe... but thought I would throw it out there for discussion."
The following UFO report was brought to my attention by a friend, David, on Facebook. The Liverpool Echo reported (13 November 2014) on the following from residents of the area…
A 28-year-old mum and her husband from Old Swan were standing in their backyard having a smoke when they noticed a UFO that was:
“bright blue and then it was staying still – like it was floating – and then it went really, really fast backwards and forwards”
It next changed to amber and turned red. It stayed there motionless before it disappeared but it came back about 10 minutes later.
I left a comment on the Liverpool Echo’s Facebook page about this one…
“Most of the commonest 'alleged' UFO sightings have been Chinese lanterns, yet they are predominantly orange. Blue is more unusual and if we can rule out aircraft activity then it is even more interesting! Liverpool has been a really good area however for UFO reports over the years and now that the MoD has closed its UFO monitoring facility is if good to see the media watching the skies … “
I remember looking out my window in Billings, Montana. There were green hills and large open sky. I used to love watching the stars and so I did it often. We lived a little bit away from the center of the city so I could see many stars and there aren't too many people in Montana anyway.
My whole childhood was very spiritual because I have always been involved in finding the truth. I communicated with spirits, learned lessons, meditated and wrote in a dream journal. I learned to focus on something to try to absorb its energies. I looked into the sky at the moon and did this often just contemplating on how protective it is. That it is really the Earth’s wings that I am seeing.
Shooting Stars
There are many regular meteor showers throughout the year. There is a list of almost a hundred of them going all year long. These are the shooting stars that we see. A shooting star is a small, rapidly moving meteor burning up on entering the earth's atmosphere according to the dictionary. A shooting star is a breathtaking display of solar fireworks that is a magical sight to see.
Shooting Stars are commonly seen in the clear skies overhead and have been viewed in a positive light. Most people would gasp in excitement to see one and feel very lucky inside. There is not one person who could say that the flash of a meteor flying by us from outer space is not a visual masterpiece sent from the Heaven’s above and why not make a wish on one and watch it come true.
Falling Stars
Falling from the sky when I looked out of my window was what looked like a falling star. It was not something I had much knowledge of at the time I was a 12 year old girl. I looked towards the east and that is the direction where I saw it. I know that it was dark outside but when the star landed it made the whole sky glow an orange and purple color and then it looked like the colors of the dawn coming up and disappeared and the morning became so bright there was no shining star. It was an event that reminded me of that photo where Satan is falling from Heaven. I was already very knowledgeable in the occult by the age of 12 as I had a spirit guide that related every piece of information to me about my past lives and also how to have magic.
A falling star is a meteor or a shooting star. It is in my opinion one of the most magical artifacts that could ever come to Earth. Reports that meteors have created and destroyed life are common and Revelations in the Christian bible claims as the beast and a giant star from the Heavens come down is so powerful and what could be as powerful but a falling star that can create and destroy life, bring precious materials from outer space and rare beauty and energy. It is truly a cosmic and holy object.
UFO Sighting
Bright lights passing by so fast I cannot see where I am going The dawn coming as the night passed While I was sleeping and letting stars fall From Heaven
Neon glowing and I feel a beautiful emission Of energy loving changing forming growing, glowing ,reaping and sowing Angelic objects wings burning harvesting stars Lights from above Change me
Ragnarok
Ragnarok is the cycle of energy. It is the time in Nordic legends that can be compared to the Christian apocalypse. The focus of Ragnarok is not on the ending of the universe but in its ending is a new beginning. Ragnarok lessons are that of the seasons changing and how all energy is transforming constantly.
Yggdrasil is the tree that is the center of the universe in Norse mythology. It is the absolute most magical tree in the universe. It is ancient and it has been around since the beginning of time. It is a tree that lives in outer space and connects to nine different planets.
A tree is understood to be the symbol for transformation between worlds as it grows from a seed in the water and then emerges its roots in the underground from their half of it lives in the above ground soaking up the sun and the moon. It is alive yet spiritual. It is also a symbol for family and a very powerful dream totem to have when lucid dreaming. Yggdrasil is an ash tree.
Wish
The birth of Christ was under a comet? Have you heard that miraculous leaders are born beneath cosmic objects, people sacrificed to this day underneath planetary alignments. Halley ’s Comet and the folklore surrounding. Well I am born the year of and legend says I will die the year of the comets return if my birth was in its presence. Mark Twain is a legend of time who knew this story and it came true and he was born and died on the passing. Many tell these histories. Will I?
Why are they so magical these holy lights? What sort of power do they really hold over us? They are so alive we can all see and they have affected us and they control things like fate and like destiny. The stars that we look up into the sky to view are not even existing in the same year or time frame that we are yet we see them. They birthed us onto Earth and they are ready to take us away. Abducting us all into the spirit world. We will all cross over.
Why do we die? I wish that we would stop dying and I guess the only way to wish for things like that is to wish on a star because only the gods in the Heavens can save us.
The upcoming 51st anniversary of President Kennedy’s assassination and its connection to classified UFO files is discussed in a new video released by Third Phase of Phase on November 6.
The video,“UFO Sightings MJ-12: The Presidents Last Stand,” proposes the general public is opening up for the first time to the possibility that Kennedy had a genuine interest in UFOs and that this played a role in his assassination. Using historic documents – both those released through the Freedom of Information Act and those leaked unofficially by whistleblowers – it is proposed that Kennedy tried a number of different initiatives to gain access to classified UFO files. With a subscriber base of almost 200,000, the Third Phase of Moon video introduces a radical new perspective on the Kennedy Assassination to the US and world public.
The Third Phase of Moon video uses a combination of new film footage taken on the Big Island of Hawaii with the writer wherein my 2013 book, Kennedy’s Last Stand, is discussed, and archived footage of a 2009 lecture wherein documents concerning Kennedy’s efforts to gain access to classified UFO files are discussed. The video begins by discussing President Kennedy’s experiences in Post War Germany where he was a guest of the U.S. Secretary of Navy, James Forrestal, and toured captured Nazi UFO technologies. Kennedy’s war time knowledge of UFOs played a key role in his interest in gaining access to classified UFO files closely safeguarded by the CIA’s counter intelligence division, and a secretive organization called Majestic-12.
Kennedy’s efforts to do an end run against the CIA’s refusal to share classified UFO files is discussed, along with his efforts to gain access using his Commander in Chief powers when visiting U.S. military facilities. It is claimed that Kennedy shared some of the UFO secrets he had discovered with Marilyn Monroe. Monroe’s estrangement from Kennedy and attempt to reveal his UFO secrets through a planned Press Conference, is claimed to have played a direct role in her August 1962 death.
The Third Phase of Moon video finishes with Kennedy’s historic September 20, 1963 initiative announced at the United Nations General Assembly to collaborate with the Soviet Union in joint space and lunar missions. It is proposed that Kennedy’s space cooperation initiative was driven by a desire to have classified UFO files shared between the respective bureaucracies of the US and USSR.
This would have eventually ensured direct Presidential access to classified UFO files and programs. When it became clear on 12 November 1963 – after Soviet Premier Khrushchev finally accepted Kennedy’s space cooperation initiative – that Kennedy might succeed, a secret assassination directive called “Project Environment,” was implemented by the head of the CIA’s counter intelligence division. Ten days later, President Kennedy was assassinated in Dallas, Texas.
The Hoia-Baciu Forest is situated near Cluj-Napoca, Romania and is often referred to as the Bermuda Triangle of the country and it has a reputation as world’s most haunted forest due to paranormal activity and unexplained events there.
Reports have included, ghost sightings, unexplained apparitions, guardian angels and faces appearing in photographs that were not visible with the naked eye, and in 1968, UFO sightings were reported.
The last reported UFO was filmed over Baciu Forest in 2002 by two Cluj residents who lived on the top floor of a building on the outskirts of the neighborhood Manastur. The UFO was caught on film for 27 seconds and were described as a cigar-shaped bright object in the sky with a length of about 50 meters.
In the forest there is a magnetic area 300 meters wide and electronic devices are known to malfunction when introduced into the area. Tests with measurement devices have revealed electromagnetic interference, magnetic anomalies, microwave, infrared and radioactive emissions all in the abnormal range.
People have been known to disappear, strange lights have been seen and people entering the forest and experiencing missing time.
Some paranormal investigators have associated all these strange activities and sightings with supernatural activity and believe that the forest is a gateway to another dimension.
Many objects called UFO sightings from different testimonies. But when it comes to NASA always happens “are reflections”, “space junk” or lens flaws… even “the altered psychological state” Astronaut.
In this video you will see three cases of unidentified flying objects, maybe Ebani’s, come out of the clouds and follow the external fuel tanks falling away from Space Shuttles after they achieved orbit.
Toen deze UFO verscheen boven Ilpendam is hij waarschijnlijk door niemand opgemerkt.
Toch is hij niet aan de aandacht ontsnapt omdat Google de UFO heeft weten vast te leggen.
Het is natuurlijk al meerdere malen voorgekomen dat Google met het maken van alle foto's vreemde objecten in de lucht weet vast te leggen.
Als deze worden ontdekt dan duurt het meestal niet al te lang voordat ze worden “weggepoetst”. Als je dus zelf wilt controleren of het klopt, raden wij je aan om niet al te lang te wachten.
Wat je nodig hebt is Google Earth en dan vervolgens kun je de volgende coördinaten kopiëren en plakken: 52°27'58.02"N 4°57'21.28"E
Boven een huis zie je dan een gloeiende UFO waaruit een lichtstraal lijkt te komen.
Wanneer je Streetview selecteert, zie je een donkere ovale UFO boven het huis.
Het is niet duidelijk wanneer deze opnames door Google zijn gemaakt, maar mocht iemand uit Ilpendam zich toch herinneren iets gezien te hebben dan horen we dat graag.

Do Spirit Pond Inscriptions Show That the Holy Grail Was Taken to North America?
Forensic geologist, Scott Wolter, has put forward a radical new theory concerning a set of three inscribed stones found near Spirit Pond in Phippsburg more than 40 years ago. According to Wolter, the controversial stones are evidence that the Knights Templar fled Europe for North America after their persecution in 1307, bringing with them the Holy Grail.
The Spirit Pond rune stones, as they are often called, were found in 1971 by a Walter J. Elliott, Jr., a carpenter born in Bath, Maine. The stones, currently housed at the Maine State Museum, have been dismissed by some scientists as a hoax or a fraud, but others maintain that they are authentic and provide evidence of pre-Columbian trans-oceanic contact and Norse colonisation of the Americas.
The mysterious stones measure about six by eleven inches. One stone features a rough map on one side and inscriptions on the other. The second stone bore a dozen letters on one side, and the third contained a long message of sixteen lines neatly inscribed on both sides of the stone.
Upon finding the stones, Walter Elliott took them to the Bath Maritime Museum, where director Harold Brown suggested that the marks might be in the Norse runic alphabet. Subsequently, the stones found their way to Einar Haugen, Harvard professor of Scandinavian languages and history. In his published evaluation, he was adamant the stones were a fraud and dismissed them as “gibberish”. Continue reading at The Epoch Times
Widow digs up husband’s body before dumping coffin on roadside
A grieving widow faces jail after exhuming the corpse of her dead husband before dumping his coffin on the roadside and attempting to smuggle his body across a border.
Verica Zunjic, 60, had driven 230 miles from her home in the town of Doboj, Bosnia, to Danilovgrad, Montenegro, where her husband Milograd was buried in a family plot.
It is thought that she had fallen out with her late husband’s family and wanted his resting place to be closer to home.
After sneaking into the graveyard where he was buried, she continued to exhume his body by digging up his coffin, before putting it in the back of her car and attempting to head home.
She had faced difficulty in closing the boot once her husband’s body was inside the vehicle and had consequently laid him on the back seat, hoping to tell border officials that he was sleeping.
However, fellow motorists became suspicious when Mrs Zunjic was spotted pulling over and opening the coffin, before putting her husband’s body in the car.
Her plan came undone when she was stopped by a police patrol a few miles down the road, after police were able to survey CCTV footage to identify the pensioner.
A police spokesman said: ‘When officers stopped her she denied any wrong-doing and said she was “just taking what was rightfully hers”.
‘Unfortunately, exhuming a corpse without official permission is illegal, no matter what the reasons.’ - Metro
The remarkable meeting of opposite extremes was organized to celebrate Guinness World Records Day.
Sultan Kosen of Turkey, the tallest man in the world at 2.51m in height, attended the event in London where he shook hands with Nepal's Chandra Bahadur Dangi, the world's smallest man who measures just 55 centimeters tall.
"I was very interested how tall he was going to be, about how far up my legs he would go, and of course once I saw him I realized how tiny he was," said Kosen who also holds the world record for the world's largest hands.
"Even though he is short and I am tall, we have had similar struggles throughout our lives and when I look into Chandra's eyes I can see he is a good man."
His counterpart Mr Dangi, who is now 74, barely reached his knees when standing up.
"I was very pleased to see the tallest man in the world, I was curious to meet my extreme opposite," he said. "I'm so pleased to be a Guinness record holder. Thanks to this I have visited many countries and met many people. I really love it."
Modern Russia's obsession with psychics and the occult
Modern Russia is, apparently, a hotbed of psychic activity. Recent reports have estimated that Russia's psychic industry is worth between $15 million and $2 billion. These aren't super-reliable figures, but that they exist at all indicates the scale of psychic devotion in Russia. A new book, by freelance journalist Marc Bennetts, explores the scale of this phenomenon — and the reasons behind it.
In a tweet advertising his book, Bennetts advertises stories of "Kremlin-backed psychics, 'resurrections' for $1,500 a corpse, [and] urban witches with too much make-up." His previous reporting on Russia's psychic underground, like this piece in Sabotage Magazine last year, certainly delivers some equally crazy stories:
"Town halls that had once hosted Communist Party meetings [and] now saw sorcerers armed with ouija boards attempting to conjure up Lenin's spirit." A Moscow witch who promised that her "mixture of psychic and magical abilities as yet unknown to science" could help a client land a promotion (maximum six year guarantee).
Since 2008, the Russian government has required an official license to advertise any services as "magic." In other words, the Russian state is formally licensing magicians, as well as any sorcerers, wizards, witches, or other characters who would like to sell themselves as performing magic. But it does not require a license to advertise "paranormal" services.
So why is this so prevalent?
The basic explanation offered by Bennets and others has to do with Soviet communism's collapse. Since the Warsaw Pact began falling apart in the late 80s, large numbers of Russians turned to psychic and spiritual beliefs to make up for the ideological void that communism left.
Take faith healer Anatoly Kashpirovsky, who first became famous in October 1989. Kashpirovsky "would appeal to viewers to place pots and pans full of water by their television sets during his show, so that their contents would be charged with healing properties by being exposed to his waves of telepathic energy," Radio Free Europe correspondent Tom Balmforth writes in Russia Profile. According to Balmforth, a 1990 poll found that 52.3 percent of respondents believed that Kashpirovsky's techniques could cure illnesses. - VOX
Murder makes Hong Kong 'haunted apartments' a hard sell
There's a grim phenomenon in the real estate market in Hong Kong: discounts of as much as 50 per cent for home-seekers willing to live in an apartment where a murder has occurred.
Unnatural deaths typically result in rental discounts of 10 per cent to 20 per cent and can be more than double that for sinister killings, according to Sammy Po, head of the residential department of realtor Midland Holdings. Chinese believe such places, known as "hung jaak," the Cantonese term for "haunted apartments," are unlucky, he said.
"The Chinese really do care" about living in these places, Po said.
The rent for a Wan Chai district apartment where police found two women's bodies on November 1, HK$29,000 (NZ$4,750) a month at the time of the murders, will probably drop by half when it's released from being a crime scene, cleaned and rented again, according to a director of the company that owns the unit, who didn't want his name or firm identified because he isn't permitted to speak publicly. The sales value of the unit in the luxury J Residence would decline from HK$9 million to HK$6m if it were sold immediately, the person said.
Hong Kong had almost 190 sites where an unnatural death took place, including murders and suicides, this year, according to a database compiled by Squarefoot.com.hk.
Squarefoot lists the date of the incident, the address, the district and a brief description of the death. Among recent listings were an apartment where an 18-year-old male student slipped a plastic bag over his head last month and jumped to his death; one where a middle-aged couple, plagued by financial troubles, committed suicide by inhaling burning coal smoke; and another where a mother was hacked to death by a mentally unstable neighbor while protecting her two daughters.
Hong Kong is certainly not the only place where home- seekers can be wary of a residence marred by tragedy. Nevertheless, in a comparably high-demand market like New York City, the stigma is less marked, according to Jonathan Miller, president of real estate appraiser Miller Samuel Inc. in Manhattan. Where sales inventory in the city is scarce and rents are near records, a crime or other negative event wouldn't have much effect on price, he said.
In Britain, a particularly notorious crime can cause a home to become unsaleable, requiring it to be knocked down and rebuilt, said Richard Sexton, a director at e.surv, the country's largest provider of residential property valuations.
"Equally, if it's a folklore situation, the U.K. can be different," he said. "The house with the friendly ghosts can sometimes be marketed that way as a positive."
Hong Kong property agents aren't required by law to disclose if a death occurred in a unit, but they should provide information when asked under the industry's code of ethics, according to the Estate Agents Authority, a government agency. Potential tenants or buyers should ask whether a suicide or homicide took place because there's no legal definition of a "haunted property," the agency said in an e-mailed response.
Hong Kong is otherwise Asia's priciest real estate market. Private residential rents hit a record high in August, reaching almost HK$25 a square foot, or HK$12,500 for a 500-square-foot apartment, according to Midland. Residential sales prices, which have more than doubled since the start of 2009, hit a record last month despite government measures to curb demand.
The city is the world's most expensive after London for multinational companies to base staff because of its real estate, according to property brokerage Savills Plc.
C S Group, a Hong Kong property-services firm, is auctioning a 550-square-foot "hung jaak" on Nov. 18 with a starting price of HK$3.18m, according to its website. An apartment of the same size in the same complex sold last month for almost 27 per cent more, or HK$4.33m, according to data from Midland.
"The demand is there, whether from investors seeking rent or for self use," said Alger Cheng, general manager of the group's auction department.
First-time homebuyers are also drawn to these cheaper properties, Midland's Po said.
Superstition and geomancy beliefs run deep. Hong Kong people also shun sites close to cemeteries, hospitals and churches, which can be considered unlucky. Buildings typically omit the fourth floor because the number is a homonym for the Chinese word for death. Property developers rely on feng shui, which translates as "wind and water," the Chinese practice of arranging the physical environment in harmony according to beliefs about energy and design.
"For those growing up in Hong Kong, feng shui is hammered into your mind, even if you don't believe or understand it," said Ng Wai-pok, a former lecturer of feng shui at the University of Hong Kong. "A large part of it is psychological, but there is also the metaphysical."
Expatriates tend to be less concerned with living in "haunted apartments," said Asif Ghafoor, founder of property- listing website Spacious.hk.
For them, "location is by far the most important thing," he said. - Stuff
INCREDIBLE UFO ENCOUNTER AND POSSIBLE ABDUCTION 1980 EAST HAVEN CONNECTICUT
It began in my childhood home on one ordinary night and not unlike any other. My family all went to sleep and as I had done many times before, I got out of bed in the middle of the night. I quietly took my blanket and laid on top of the heater vent in the hallway. The vent came up through the floor in the middle of the hall at the top of the stairs. It was centered between four bedrooms and a bathroom on the second floor where I would often fall asleep. This time I was awakened by what I thought was a young boy standing at my feet smiling at me. He was about three feet tall with dirty blonde straight hair. I thought that maybe my sister Janet had been sitting and the child woke up wandering. But then I thought it was probably a dream. because that didn’t make sense. So I rubbed my eyes but the child was still there. I did it again only harder and again he was still there. I remember thinking that I had to wake myself up. I rubbed my eyes two more times, still there.
Only now because of the look on his face I started getting scared. It began to occur to me that this wasn’t what it seemed, so I ever so slowly stood up. He was looking right at me, and smiling with an uncanny knowing smile. Something in his expression seemed to me as if he was thinking “I know something about YOU!” Suddenly he started to move, he went around me from my right hand side to my left. As he passed, I followed him in through my mom’s open door at the end of the hall. There he stopped at the end of her bed while still looking at me. I slowly circled around him, making no quick or jerky moves. I didn’t want to arouse any suspicion of what I was about to do. I stood between him and the end of my mom’s bed. He was right under the hanging light switch. I was going to grab for the switch quick before he has a chance to react. “NOW!” I quickly pull the switch! The damn light blows out, but during the flash, I could see he or it was gone. I instantly leaped into my mother’s bed and frantically woke her so I could tell her. “Mom, Mom,” she’s like, “what’s the matter?” “I just saw a ghost at the end of your bed.” She says, “that’s because you’re so bad.” I was around 9 years old at the time and that was real encouraging. The next morning I told my brother but he didn’t believe me. He went upstairs with me to turn on the light, it was blown. “See, I wasn’t lying.” I first believed it was a ghost but later experiences brought me to the conclusion that it was more likely an extraterrestrial. 1982 ……
NEW HAVEN CONNECTICUT Now several years would pass and the next event would change me permanently. It was what I’ve heard referred to as a plasma UFO and now I began to think that someone was trying to get my attention. Now the first visual event of the little boy wasn’t a fluke anymore. Now I’m about 11 or 12 and WOW! What the hell is that in the sky, Venus? It must be a planet I thought. I’ve heard about these things before, colorful lights always turn out to be a planet. But it couldn’t be a planet because it’s too big and close and moving too weird. Let me back up about five minutes. I was just an average boy and there I was walking home as usual one summer night. When I got to my street one block from the shoreline I took a left at the Town Beach Park. It was a small dimly lit neighborhood park with a few picnic tables and a swing set area. My house was only four short blocks away. I walked another block where my street crossed the main road in and out of my neighborhood. There was never much traffic at night, except for area residents. When I crossed the street, something in the sky caught my eye. A very large multi-colored luminous cloud like object appeared. It was a clear star lit night with no clouds in the area. The object was about the same altitude as a low cumulus cloud so I would have to judge the size to be about a mile wide. It was slightly oval horizontally but not rounded. I would describe it as globular. It was what appeared to be a luminous plasma made up of about twelve different distinct but separate colors.
They were each somewhat globular as well, forming the whole. Each of the colors was changing shape and size while adjacent colors would either contract or expand in response. There were no borders between the colors and they were bright, saturated and fluorescent in appearance like neon. The overall size of the entire plasma cloud didn’t vary during the expansion and contraction of the individual colors. It was completely silent and as you can imagine, I was stunned frozen. It was both amazing and beautiful, but what was it? I’d never seen anything like it before or since and I’ve told the story so many times I can remember it like it was yesterday. I seemed perfectly centered from left to right, beneath it and it was about 30 degrees south from directly over my head. This placed it over the shore of the Town Beach. There was nothing on that side of the street so my view was unobstructed. After about 30 seconds, the thing just shot straight back and disappeared into a clear sky full of stars. Then suddenly, as quickly as it shot away, it came straight back to the same exact position and size with all the colors in the exact same places they were. It was only gone for about ten seconds. The speed was astonishing it took less than a second or about a second to travel the distance. From about a mile across to hundreds or even thousands of miles away in one second, WOW! It took no more than a second to return too. I remember thinking, “this is weird and I don’t think it’s from here” but here it was again. This time it hovered for another 10 seconds beautiful and silent. Then again shot away for another couple seconds before shooting straight back to the same position and size. It went back and forth at the same speed 3 more times each time staying for about a second before shooting off for the last time. It was as if it was showing off its speed or something. I stood there still frozen for about thirty more seconds waiting for it to return. Then suddenly I was jolted by the realization of what I just saw. I instantly started running home the last three blocks faster than I’d ever run before. When I got home heart pounding, out of breath, I frantically told my older brother Frank, “I just saw a UFO!” The next day, my brother told me that in the paper that other people reported it and that it was gases escaped from a test rocket.
That cover-story never sat right with me, I never heard of anyone testing rockets over populated New England towns. Anyway, since when does escaped gas take off and come back four more times before actually escaping? Now, what you should know is that the last contact was about a year ago which left physical marks on my person. Another thing is that a lot of very strange things have been happening to me since the first two contacts. These things probably number into the hundreds. However, it was the second encounter that altered my perception of reality. People have asked me if I was abducted, if it was aliens, if they did something to me? I don’t know if I was abducted I didn’t check the clock for missing time. I hadn’t heard the UFO missing time stories back then. From what I understand however from a contact investigator and from documentaries, altered reality and extraterrestrial contact go hand in hand. Many people who have reported encounters have also reported lingering or permanent altered realities. Increases in paranormal activity, increases in synchronicity, psi events and so on. Also it has made me much more open to spirituality. Anything to me is now possible including the possibility of a greater consciousness and higher states of existence. I also feel a silent invisible presence just observing me, an almost tangible entity just beyond my five senses. I know it’s there and I know it’s aware of that. I don’t know what it or they are or what it or they want but I can psychically sense an existence just beyond my physicality.
One of the very conscious conclusions I took away from this event was that I believe that whatever it was I saw in the sky, was there for ME! The way I was directly centered from left to right and the way it shot back and forth directly from my angle of vision are a couple of the things that years later would lead me to this conclusion. The accumulative effects of other anomalies before and after are other reasons. I also came to the conclusion that it wasn’t a craft but an entity. I believe from the rest of what has happened to me since, that there is an agenda I’m supposed to accomplish.

STRANGE UFO CRAFT WITNESSED OVER MANY STATES MARCH 15, 1995
Traditionally, the Center identifies a given sighting by assigning to it the name of the nearest city, or other geographical feature or landmark. It the case of the cluster of sighting reports we received over the Hotline on the evening of March 15, l995, so many states and cities were involved, we are going to borrow a line from Shakespeare regarding the possible perils of that date…The first call we received was from Cannis City, FL, reporting that two males were walking along railroad tracks near that town and were stunned to see a luminous, white disc-shaped object streak across the sky, pass below or near several aircraft in the night sky, appear to ascend back up into the sky, and disappear to the north.
The report seemed to be sincere, and bore several of the hallmarks that the Center knows to be characteristic of legitimate reports. However, it was so much like so many other reports the Hotline receives on a regular basis that we were not yet alerted to the possibility that other reports were soon to follow…..The third call we received minutes later from a gentleman in Jackson, TN, who reported witnessing a blue-green “cloud of light” hovering in the night sky. He had seen it streak from the northwest beneath, he thought, almost solid overcast, hover for approximately 30 or 40 seconds, during which time he could almost see some kind of object apparently imbedded in the cloud of light. The object then began to drift generally to the southwest, the caller reported, at which time it belched out a large “cloud” of sparks, and then streaked southwest, quickly disappearing from sight. Minutes later, we received a call from a sergeant in the Missouri Highway Patrol communications headquarters in Jefferson City (“Troop F”). The officer had been on duty that night at his station on the east side of Jefferson City, when together with two Jefferson City police officers, he witnessed an intensely bright, green light hover in the sky over Jefferson City for approximately 5-7 seconds. The object began to descend slowly, at which point its color changed to yellow, and then it simply disappeared from sight instantly, like a light being switched off. The patrol officer reported that their “911” emergency dispatch telephone line had taken many reports from citizens regarding the same object, and one caller reported that his cellular phone and radio went dead while the object was near his vehicle. While I was speaking with the patrol officer, another call came in from a retired commercial airline pilot, who resides in Vienna, VA. He and his wife were driving back to their home in Vienna, just a few miles west of Washington, D.C., after having picked up their daughter at National Airport. Their daughter is an airline pilot for the same airline that her father had flown for, and from which he had retired. As they were driving west (at a heading of approximately 250 degrees magnetic) on Westford Avenue (?), approaching the exit for Chain Bridge Road, the father and daughter both simultaneously observed an bright object, apparently at some distance from them, streak down out of the sky almost directly ahead of them, descending at approximately 70-80 degrees from the horizontal plane. They both expected to observe some kind of explosion when the object reached ground level, but nothing happened! Rather than explode, the object simply disappeared from sight–uneventfully– when it reached the horizon… The next call came from Fairmont, WV, perhaps a hundred miles (or more) to the northwest of Vienna, VA. A young woman called to report that, after visiting with her mother in Westover, WV, she had just sat in the driver’s seat of her car to leave, when a bright light had streaked silently over her car at a breath-taking velocity. She added that as she glanced up at the light, she thought she could make out the outline of an “egg-shaped” object imbedded in the orb of bright light. The back portion of the object was bright yellow. Many other calls were received that night, and over subsequent days, regarding what appears to us to be the same sighting. Thousands (!) of calls reportedly were received by radio stations and “911” facilities in St. Louis, MO, after the object passed over that city, and we received two very convincing call from western Illinois, as well. In summary, it appears that one or more egg-shaped objects, radiating intensely bright green, blue-green, and yellow light, and periodically spewing out a cloud of sparks, streaked over at least seven states, stopping from time to time, and the whole event occurred in a matter of minutes!! I would like to close discussion of the case by extending congratulations to Mr. Tom Eckhardt, and the other UFO investigators, of the Acteon Group in St. Louis for their excellent investigation of this case. From our vantage point, their investigation and documentation of the events that occurred over their state on March 15 was second to none, and we are grateful for their wonderful written report regarding the incident.
J. Allen Hynek, a once UFO skeptic, began classifying the most compelling and promising scientific cases of UFO sightings and alien encounters. As he studied and categorized the various UFO/Alien cases, Hynek began to become less of a skeptic. It his research and expertise that led to the movie Close Encounters of the Third Kind, which is considered to be one of the most accurate portrayals of alien/UFO eyewitness accounts in a fictional movie. Just about any investigator (UFO, Criminal, Paranormal, etc.) will tell you that the eyewitness account of an event is normally the most unreliable piece of evidence gathered during an investigation. Yet, often times, it is the only piece of evidence that investigators have to go on. Moreover, the more complex or traumatic an event is, the more difficult it is to rely on these accounts.
Additionally, it is even more difficult to categorize and organize these accounts into a coherent fashion which would allow others to study these accounts. This difficulty in categorization definitely holds true for eyewitness accounts of UFO sightings and alien encounters. The difficulty lies in how different each eyewitness account is from one another. As the UFO Casebook put it: “Witnesses to UFOs report many different shapes and sizes; from discs to cigars to triangles and almost anything you could imagine.” Such varying accounts make it almost impossible to categorize them into any sort of neat classification system. However, Dr. J. Allen Hynek, a UFO skeptic, set out to do so.
According to Hynek, even though UFO sightings and alien encounters vastly differ from one another, there is usually some common thread that can tie various sightings/encounters together, such as distance, time of day, shape of object, etc. He began looking at eyewitness accounts under a new light. Once he made his break with the Air Force, the former skeptic began to study these various accounts on his own; still categorizing them in his home-grown classification system. To date, the Hynek system is the most widely used UFO/Alien sighting classification system. Also see the UFO Casebook article: The Hynek Classification System.
(N.Morgan) Area 51 has been a point of mystery and debate, as to whether it is real or what it’s true mission is. Many have come forward, from former military and other officials, claiming that not only does Area 51 exist, but that it is a housing unit for alien life forms and experiments. Located around a hundred miles north of Las Vegas is one of the most guarded and mysterious pieces of land in the U.S. called Area 51.Tours at Area 51 is prohibited without authorization, but people are always finding ways to enter beyond the gates. Author of the book “Area 51 Black Jets” Bill Yenne said that the term impossible can be applied to the effort in spying the highly guarded facility, but that is not always true. He explained that there have been prying eyes looking into the mysteries of Area 51.
Government was asked by curious individuals for many decades on the real activities inside the facility, but no reliable answer was provided. It slightly change last year with the official disclosure by the CIA of what the public had speculated for years, Area 51 exists. The declassified documents contain records on the development of advanced planes such as the U-2 spy plane from the late 1950s, SR71 Blackbird, and A-12. All these things were used to be classified and eventually declassified. However, Yenne said many other activities in Area 51 are still not officially disclose until today. Speculations about reverse engineering of alien technology and alien body experimentations are still up in the air despite the released of formerly classified documents by the CIA.
While the U.S. government, via the CIA, officially acknowledged the existence of Area 51 in 2013, curious individuals are not satisfied because that was all the government did and they said nothing about what is inside today. Every person that would cross the line into the facility without clearance is likely to be arrested by the federal officers or Lincoln County sheriff. There is a warning sign that the lethal force is authorized against someone who will be caught trespassing the area. So the general public continue to speculate and imagine what transpires inside Area 51.
