China Has A "Nessie".Who Knew?


Chinas Nessie sightd
Ten tourists from Guangdong and Hubei provinces were the latest to report a "water monster" sighting in Kanas Lake, Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region. They told local media that they saw a giant black creature on July 5 that stirred waves over 1 meter high and left a wake over 10 meters long for 20 seconds about 100 meters away from their boat.

Kanas Lake, which means "beautiful, mysterious lake" in Mongolian, is China's deepest freshwater lake with a maximum depth of 188.5 meters, and 24 kilometers long from north to south. It's located in the Kanas Nature Reserve in the Aletai mountain area of northern Xinjiang and has been the source of numerous monster sightings, similar to Scotland's Loch Ness (or
"Nessie") monster for decades – particularly since the 1980s when more visitors and settlers came to the area. Scientists have carried out investigations, though no conclusive evidence has been found of the creature.

Some scientists believe, however, that the monsters may be taimen trout, one of the world's largest and most ferocious freshwater fish which can grow as long as 10 meters.

Another Similar Sighting

Just before posting Gary's experience and artistic depiction of his sighting (In Post Below.)I heard about this one:
"...Witnesses described a football-field-sized triangular craft they saw while on a hunting trip in Idaho in the year 2000. They said the vehicle matched an image in the Special Operations Manual, a purported top secret document from 1954, dealing with the recovery of extraterrestrial entities and technology...

Witness Kris Bales said he was directly under the huge craft which was about 100-200 ft. above him, just silently sitting there. It had a central pulsing red light that was about 90 ft. in diameter. His brother, Marc, who later observed the craft with binoculars, described seeing a small dome-like light on its top."

An Artist Depicts His UFO Sighting


I saw this picture posted by a friend at Global Paranormal Network and was quite impressed with it as it depicts his Sighting of a triangular shaped UFO.

You probably have been hearing more about them lately also the cigar shaped ones, neither of which had disappeared from the scene but of which fewer documentation and tapes were seen in the past decade.
Gary Val Tenuta is the Artist, and as it turns out the author of an article describing his experience.
I want to thank him and suggest you read the full account.There is a link below.


Initially he said "This is an illustration I created to depict the experience I had in 1993. I estimated the craft to be about 300 ft. to a side. It was totally silent and was moving at a very slow pace, perhaps 5 mph. At the time of the sighting my impression was that it was probably about 150 ft. above me"

More details are in the article."... I'd been making that Sunday night drive past Boeing (although via the freeway) for twelve years. This is also not too far from the Sea-Tac Airport. In all that time I'd seen plenty of airplanes and helicopters flying low in this area. But something was different this time. It took me a minute to realize what it was. It was the fact that the lights weren't blinking. I thought that was odd. It seemed to me every airplane or helicopter I've ever seen flying at night had blinking lights.... Although I was now only about two blocks away from being directly under the flight path of these lights, I still could not make out what they were attached to. However, from their slow, steady movement, in unison, I was pretty sure all three of them were attached to a single object rather than being independent of each other. By the time I was directly in line with their flight path, they were about to enter the airspace above Boeing Field to my immediate left. At this point I was convinced it was a single, low-flying craft of some kind and I knew there was something very odd here. I pulled my car off to the side of the road and rolled down the window to get a better look. But the craft was now directly overhead so I had to get out of the car to see it.

I opened the car door and stepped out. Craning my neck to see the craft as it passed slowly directly over my head at an estimated altitude of less than 500 feet (Note: at the actual time of the sighting my impression was that the craft was perhaps only about 150 feet above me) I could see it was a gigantic black triangle. There is no other way to describe it because that's precisely what it was; a huge, black, triangle; not just "sort of" triangular shaped, like one of those stealth jets I'd seen photos of. It was just one big, three-sided, cookie-cutter-straight-edged, black, geometric shape; a triangle with one large, round unblinking red light at each of its three corners, flat up against the underside of the craft. There was a high, gray cloud cover that evening, subtly lit by the Seattle city lights in the distance. I could clearly and unobstructedly see the object like a huge, dense black silhouette against this gray ceiling.
I stood there almost not believing what I knew I was seeing. I actually said to myself, “Ok. What, exactly, are you seeing? You're going to want to remember every detail of this! Just the facts, now. What, exactly, do you see?” I made a mental inventory. “Black triangle. Red light on each corner, flat up against the underside of the craft. They don't blink. ...It looks like it's about seventy-five to a hundred feet above one of the main Boeing hangars. It's moving very slowly.,, It appears to be about the size of a football field.”

Suddenly I realized, as I stood there in the dark on this quiet empty street, the object didn't make a sound! Maybe more than anything else, that's what made the whole thing so eerie. Something that huge, that close, moving through the air at a snail's pace should be making some kind of a sound... A hum. A rumble. Anything. But, no...
I looked up and down the street to see if anyone else was witnessing this silent event, but the street was dark and empty in both directions. It occurred to me, however, that the thing had just passed directly over hundreds of cars on the freeway... I looked up again at the mysterious craft now blending into the dark horizon. I watched it until I couldn't see it anymore and then it was over.

I got back into my car and closed the door. The window was still open and I took another look. Nothing was there but the gray night sky, softly aglow from the distant city lights. It was as if nothing had happened. But believe me, it did, indeed, happen."

Ask Ouija?


Recently I read an article that Hasbro has introduced a series of The Ouija Board in electric colors.Will this enhance the purchase by Tweens,Teens,and College bound girls to "match their room?" no doubt they think so.The regular style has long been as one mother said "On or near the bottom of toy shelves in Walmart,ToysRUs, and other stores in easy reach of children."She considers that dangerous.

Some time ago I did a few posts on this blog (4/11/06) with a video and comments of Etsy Artists indicating that it is not a "game"and can be dangerous.As one said "It opens portals" allowing bad spirits or any old spirit to enter,They may lie to mask their evil intentions.Some have had horrible experiences while others laugh off what happened to them.

There are conflicting thoughts about the origin.One author says the board has been around since the time of the Roman Emperor Valens in the fourth century. It is also thought to have been used by the Greeks since before the time of Christ.

Another says Ouija boards came into existence as a parlor game in the mid-1800's, when spiritism and channeling were at the height of fashion.

Adolphus Theodore Wagner first patented Ouija boards, sometimes referred to as "talking boards," in London, England on January 23, 1854.
In the patent, Wagner called his invention a "psychograph" and its purpose was to read the minds of people with "nervous energy." By 1861, Frenchman, Allan Kardac, was describing the Ouija board as instruments with which to open communications with the spirit world.
In seven short years, the Ouija board had evolved from a mind-reader to portal of communication with the dead.

The Ouija board was first introduced in the United States in 1890 as a parlor game sold in novelty shops.
There are several theories about the origin of the term "Ouija". According to one of these, the word is derived from the French "oui" (for "yes") and the German/Dutch "ja" (also for "yes"). An alternative story suggests that the name was revealed to inventor Charles Kennard (one of the three who revised and introduced it) during a Ouija séance and was claimed to be an Ancient Egyptian word meaning "good luck.".

However Ouija is not the Egyptian word for good luck. Since the board repeatedly told Kennard that Ouija was the Egyptian word, the name stayed.

In 1966 the Parker Brothers purchased the rights to the Ouija Board and shifted its manufacturing facilities to Salem, Massachusetts. "Ouija" is a registered trademark.
Reportedly the box says ...A Game Or Is It?

The American demonologists Ed and Lorraine Warren, stated that "Ouija boards are just as dangerous as drugs."
On the subject reviewed by skeptics is the curious ending with "As a final note about this enigmatic subject; the Ouija Board, whether it be deemed apparatus to communicate with the dead or simply something to help demonstrate harmless psychological behaviour, it is probably best avoided.

Aliens Or Altered Consciousness?


Researcher and author Graham Hancock discussed how humanity received a jump start some 40,000 years ago, when our ancestors took psychoactive plants and had contacts with non-terrestrial beings who served as teachers.

Their visions and encounters were depicted on cave paintings, he said. The Amazonian hallucinogenic brew known as ayahuasca is being used today, and its active ingredient DMT, is naturally made in the human pineal gland. People who have spontaneous visions may produce higher levels of this chemical in their bodies, he noted,




Quote of the Day
"In the Amazon, they believe that a particular entity lies behind the ayahuasca vine, and this entity is envisaged sometimes as a majestic human woman, and sometimes in the form of a gigantic serpent, a boa constrictor or anaconda type of serpent. And I, under under the influence of ayahuasca, have met this being...we always speak of her in the female form...you do have a direct spiritual contact with a being who loves the Earth, and who loves human beings and who comes to us with a feeling of love..." --Graham Hancock

Stumped The Investigator


Recently,documentary producer Bill Murphy, shared details from his various paranormal investigations. Murphy recalled visiting a house in Leesville, Louisiana, where strange occurrences baffled a local paranormal research team.

"The land the house sat upon, as well as the home itself, would vibrate inexplicably, Murphy explained. The area was neither by railroad tracks nor prone to earthquakes, he added. Murphy said the unexplainable vibrations eventually manifested into poltergeist activity, which he was able to record."

But what about the house? And the people living in it?

The Hunch Backed Man


This is a recent story of an unexpected visit by M in her own words:
"I live in Cheyenne, Wyoming. My experience happened in February, 2009. I have two dogs and I have to go out in the backyard with them while they go potty so my big dog doesn't jump the fence. I am not sure if I was out with the dogs or not, but I was out in my backyard. My backyard is about 1,500 feet from the alley and then my neighbor's garage. I have a small shed in the back of my yard.

I happened to look by my shed and see this old man hunched over, walking in the alley toward my shed. When he got close to the shed, he moved really fast. He never came out from there it... was like he disappeared.

I did see what he was wearing: a red hat, greenish gray vest, plaid shirt of the same color and pants of the same color, almost maybe black and gray other than his hat. I did know that at one time the neighbor behind us said that her grandpa built her house. So it got me wondering if this man was her grandpa.

I called her about two weeks later, after telling my husband and parents. I didn't want to sound like a weirdo. So I called her and asked her what he looked like. The first words out of her mouth were, "Well, he was hunchedbacked... you wouldn't miss that...."

I just about dropped the phone! Later, about another week after the phone call, my two daughters and I went to the neighbor's house for a visit and we brought up the fact that I might have seen her grandpa. We were kind of laughing when all of a sudden we heard three knocks on the inside of a door that she said was her bedroom. I'm not sure if it was her grandpa because I have never seen or even had a description of him until I had seen the hunched-over man in my alley. I still haven't seen a picture of him, but I am interested in seeing one.

I believe and have had numerous experiences in the last three years of unexplainable things. It isn't too scary for me as I tell myself that they too were alive and they are people just like me."

Thank you for telling us of your experience.
