Bear, mammoth, or cgi?

Sat, 11 Feb 2012 11:13:39 +0000

Here's why I'm not so quick to say that this is a bear with a fish in its mouth. The creature does not have the correct profile. The creature in the video, top, has a distinctly sloped back, just like the mammoth in the illustration at bottom. The Siberian brown bear, center, has a rather straight back. So, again -- is this a real mammoth or is it a computer generated image (cgi)?

Woolly mammoth videotaped?!

Fri, 10 Feb 2012 09:39:16 +0000

Thought to have gone extinct 3,500-4,000 years ago, the woolly mammoth has been reported in unconfirmed sightings in recent decades in Siberia, but now a videotape has surfaced that might show a living woolly mammoth crossing a stream. The video was allegedly shot by a Russian government-employed engineer last summer. It's a pretty convincing looking video, but we have to be careful in this day of high-quality cgi. If this is real, it's an amazing video! Go look!

"This took place in Essex, United Kingdom," reports S.C. "My son was out on his swing when suddenly he came running in and he looked ever so pale. I asked him what was wrong and he said he saw someone standing at the gate at the end of the garden with a wedding dress, red curly hair, and eyes with a black rectangle over them... and then it disappeared. We went out and looked over the field at the end of the garden and we could not see the lady anywhere. Then at night, he screamed in the kitchen and he said he saw her again standing at the gate."

SLIders & the Streetlight Phenomenon

Fri, 03 Feb 2012 12:29:58 +0000

Do streetlights turn off when you pass by them or beneath them with a high degree of regularity? If so, you could be a "SLIder" -- SLI standing for the "street light (or lamp) interference" phenomenon. There's an ongoing debate as to whether this is a genuine psychic effect or if the street lights turning off (which they sometimes do when they are in need of repair) when people pass by them is just a coincidence. However, there is evidence that certain people do have an adverse effect on watches, lights and other electrical appliances. Is there a connection? Read more.
