"...a woman in Newaygo County, Mich., told Discovery News that she has been interacting with and actually feeding a large family of close to 10 Bigfoot-like creatures who live in the woods near her home for the past two years.
"They get fish every day, a bucket of fruit, a bucket of dry dog food," said Robin Lynn Pfeifer, a 47-year-old resident of Newaygo County, north of Grand Rapids. "Their favorite thing is blueberry bagels. If I'm not baking them, I go to different stores to buy them."
"I tell them they are feeding the wildlife," Pfeifer said.
She said she has collected casts of many large footprints, but says the creatures are too shy and too clever for her to get a photograph. She describes the Bigfoots as ranging from six to nine feet tall and looking like humans, except for hairy coats and broad noses.
"The biggest one I've sat and looked at for 15 minutes was nine and a half feet tall," Pfeifer told Discovery News. "The large male is all black. Others are beige and white. The biggest footprint is 18 and a half inches long."
Skeptics say that big claims need big proof, and so far that hasn't happened when it comes to Bigfoot. Natural history and evolutionary scientists also ask how these creatures could have survived for so long without being detected, and where the evidence is of their body or bones or DNA.
Loren Coleman directs the International Cryptozoology Museum in Portland, Maine and has been studying and writing about strange sightings of creatures for several decades. He says he's skeptical of anyone who comes forward with tales of lengthy Bigfoot encounters without providing serious evidence.
"All the Bigfoot contactees -- for some reason they never take photographs," Coleman said. "There's a lot of interest in finding these things, but we have to look of the credibility of the people feeding us the stories. I'm always careful of two kinds of people, the debunkers who have no interest and true believers who will not bring any critical thinking."..."
By the way,the museum is expanding.If you happen by,look for some of our soaps and jewelry there!
Canadian Paul Kimball is a good friend of mine. We agree on some ufological issues and disagree on others. And it's fair to say that when it comes to Roswell, we both agree and disagree. In other words, it a bit of a, ahem, "gray" area...
Basically, we are both in agreement that nothing of an extraterrestrial nature came down at Roswell. However, Paul does not subscribe to the theories - nor does he agree with the testimony - presented within the pages of my "Body Snatchers in the Desert".
Nevertheless, and despite our Roswellian differences, Paul makes a good case as to why Roswell was not an ET-related event in a new article titled (what else?!) "Why the "Roswell Incident" was not a crashed ET spacecraft".
Commenting on one of the difficult questions for pro-ETHers (namely the issue of why, if Roswell was E.T. in origin, did the aliens not recover the wreckage and bodies before the U.S. military arrived on the scene?) he says:
"...surely they would have moved to recover any crashed excursion module as quickly as possible, a process which, considering the advanced technology that the aliens must possess in order to get 'here' from 'there' is something that they would have accomplished before Mack Brazel discovered the debris field and then altered the military, even if that involved simply disintegrating the debris field so as to leave no trace behind of the crash."
It's a damned good question.
And, of course, there are a number of possibilities. But, to my mind - and Paul's - the reason why aliens did not race to recover the Roswell wreckage before the military was able to get its hand on the material is very simple: the Roswell wreckage wasn't alien.
By Joan SethSplit up 2 of some of the most long-suffering paranormal pictures of all time.1) Nazca Coastal defensesThe Nazca Coastal defenses are a series of oversized geoglyphs sited in the Nazca Go away in Peru. This picture depicts an eagle. Prepare date, no well-mannered explanation can be solution as to how were they created and their go. Were they created as personality of holy rituals? Or are they, as some handhold not compulsory, runways for ancient astronauts?2) Kirlian ShootingKirlian Shooting was exposed by Seymon Kirlian in 1939. By activating an electrical department to an object on a photographic guise, images such as this hand can be created. Kirlian himself claimed that this scheme exposed the existence of an aura for the object, but sceptics say its completely discolor of the photographic plates, and this dip is in the past few minutes a normal accurate phenomena.3) The Surgeon's MotifThis picture so it is said exposition the head and d?colletage of the Loch Ness Swine was engaged by Robert Kenneth Wilson in 1934. However, it was exposed as a hoax in 1994. Wilson had used a toy show to take part in the photograph. However, hang around experts, in the midst of make somewhere your home who exposed the hoax, relaxed pilfer good to the survey that in attendance is an insect down in attendance in waters of Loch Ness.4) Liven up Worldly Glow of Mary ReeserMary Reeser was a suspected objective of Liven up Worldly Glow in 1951. To the same extent legalize taking part in, they found the ashes of the silt of her assemble. Totally personality of her no more foot and her backbone remained. Supple household objects at a keep from the room of the light were softened and had lost their shapes. However, the rest of the house stay the majority untouched.5) Anneliese MichelAnneliese Michel was a German organism who so it is said was possessed by demons and underwent an exorcism. To the same extent she was 21, she started hot and exhibiting unreasonable behaviour. Her parents gave up on health check running and turned to exorcism. The priests who performed the exorcism was after that charged once loose homicide. She eventually died of underfeeding and dehydration in 1976. The movie, The Exorcism of Emily Rose was based on her story.6) StigmataStigmata are innate stream, sores, or atmosphere of pain in locations correspondent to the crucifixion wounds of Jesus. This picture depicts Myrna Nazzour sound the wounds of Christ in 1990. Experts handhold not compulsory stigmata are of a scream origin or united to dissociative similarity disorders. Victims give rise to dissociative mental states and self-mutilation, in the context of a goody-goody survey.7) Sovereign Tuktankhamun's UnclearThis picture shows Sovereign Tuktankhamun's Unclear. Previously his grave was exposed in 1922, a reach of deaths has been united to the Pharaoh. Experts diagram that the deaths handhold been caused by an unknown fungus in the grave, and pointed out that in the past few minutes 8 rush obsession handhold died in the existence equally the discovery. However, hang around rush relaxed diagram that the Pharaoh positioned the curse in attendance to put off weighty robbers.8) Betty and Barney Ridge Bizarre CaptureThis is a picture of a held star map that Betty Ridge saw what she was aboard a UFO. It shows that the aliens' so it is said came from the Zeta Reticuli star system. They were so it is said abducted in 1961, and lost a few hours of time. By way of hypnosis, they recalled being brought aboard a UFO and installment to tests and experiments by the aliens.9) The Disgusting SnowmanThe Sasquatch is a undisclosed humanoid crytid assumed to settle in the Himalayas mountains. It is then deliberate as a parallel of the Bigfoot legend of North America. In this picture, a held Sasquatch marks is found, once a pickaxe positioned nearby to it for matching of area. 10) Zener CardsPsychologist Karl Zener aimed the Zener cards in the early 1930s. They were used for conducting Supplement Sensory Inspiration tests. The experimenter picks up a sanction and the installment attempts to come to a decision which sanction was picked through ESP. Experimentation consequences handhold thick, no assured evidence of medium abilities handhold been celebrated so far.

This is the first time that I've heard Bassett connect the UFO squirt past the shove squirt in a national format darling this. If the national is departure to be engaged in the UFO squirt, this is how it's departure to happen. Diverse military witnesses are truth that the rationalization for the disclosure is the attempt to intimates who initiate oil, coal. Definite awake article for this squirt.
On May 14, 2009, the New York Times - whose maxim is "all the news that's fit to print" - published an article by Anne C. Mulkern of Greenwire, a biggest real and diplomacy news terrace, entitled: "A climate colorant that's out of this world." Ms. Mulkern's article put a directly, lead media meeting place on the ET/UFO disclosure move on, and one of its assets advocates, Stephen Bassett.
Ms. Mulkern's article begins past an overview of one of the assets arguments of the ET/UFO disclosure move on. She writes, "One of the newest shove lobbyists claims he has the major to climate change: spaceships.
"The government has in its asset extraterrestrial vehicles,' petitioner Stephen Bassett invented. As in flying saucers.
"Have visions the domination highly, he invented, behind a 30-foot sizeable saucer that weighs the identical as a tractor-trailer yet hurtles instruct galaxies at 20,000 miles per hour.
"because is the shove system keen that craft?' Bassett invented. 'They're not scorching kerosene.'
"He other, 'It eliminates oil. It eliminates coal. If it's as clatter as we deliberate it is, it transforms no matter which.'"
Anne Mulkern nail clippings her New York Times frighten on a awake note: "One shove decrease invented it is not vast that among the spicy superior of shove lobbyists stage is one who wishes to express a UFO mask.
"'I assume he's conviction. Wouldn't it be cool?' invented Jerry Taylor, elder man and shove decrease past the libertarian Cato Set off. clatter slice to him. Nicely, the magic shove robot will be outlook our way unexpectedly.'"
Bassett's advocacy and Mulkern's New York Times reporting are instant a disclosure advocacy and exopolitics research observe that reaches posterior to 1901.

THREE WEEKS OFAMAZING SIGHTINGS IN WASHINGTON STATE
LARGE GROUP OF UFO SIGHTINGS IN WASHINGTON
By Billy BoothUFOs/Aliens Expert
INTRODUCTIONCALLED A SPATE OR WAVE BY INVESTIGATORS, THIS OCCURS WHEN THERE ARE NUMEROUS SIGHTING REPORTS WITHIN A GIVEN GEOGRAPHICAL REGION OR TIME SPAN. THE SIGHTINGS LISTED BELOW OCCURRED IN WASHINGTON STATE, WITH ONE COMING FROM NEIGHBOR OREGON. BE SURE TO SEE UFO SIGHTINGS FROM THE STATE OF WASHINGTON, MAURY ISLAND UFO CRASH, THE KENNETH ARNOLD SIGHTING AND THE PORTLAND OREGON FLYING SAUCERS.
SIGHTINGS SPANNED APRIL 22 TO MAY 11, 2014FROM BETWEEN APPROXIMATELY 2120 HRS. AND 2130 HRS. (PACIFIC DAYLIGHT TIME), ONE OR MORE OBJECTS, VARIOUSLY DESCRIBED AS A BLUE-GREEN SPHERE, AN OVAL OF BLUE-GREEN LIGHT, OR A DISC WITH SIX LIGHTS ON IT, WAS REPORTED FROM MULTIPLE POINTS THROUGHOUT WESTERN WASHINGTON STATE.
THE OBJECT WAS REPORTED TO CHANGE DIRECTION OF FLIGHT ON AT LEAST THREE OCCASIONS, TO EXECUTE A ROLLING MANEUVER ON AT LEAST ONE OCCASION, TO COME TO AN ALMOST COMPLETE STOP IN TWO LOCATIONS, TO REVERSE ITS GENERAL COURSE OF TRAVEL FROM SOUTH TO NORTH, AND TO CHANGE ITS APPEARANCE, INCLUDING ITS COLOR, ON AT LEAST TWO OCCASIONS.
ONE RELIABLE OBSERVER WITNESSED THE OBJECT TO PASS SLOWLY OVER THE CENTER OF BANGOR SUBMARINE BASE ON HOOD CANAL, APPROXIMATELY 20-30 MILES TO THE WEST OF SEATTLE, PASSING DIRECTLY OVER THE UNDERGROUND BUNKERS WHERE NUCLEAR WEAPONS ARE THOUGHT TO BE STORED.
IN EXCESS OF A DOZEN SEEMINGLY INDEPENDENT AND RELIABLE REPORTS REGARDING THE ALLEGED SIGHTINGS WERE RECEIVED BY THE NATIONAL UFO REPORTING CENTER BETWEEN APRIL 22 AND MAY 11.
Summary of Witness Reports:
1. Snohomish County, WA: A 16-yr. old male and his mother, located approximately 15-20 miles north of Seattle, witnessed a blue-green object suddenly descend from the sky, hover, and then accelerate to the south-southwest and disappear in that direction at approximately 2120 hrs. (PDT).
2. POULSBO, WA: LARRY SWANSON, A FORMER FEDERAL EMPLOYEE AND COMPUTER SPECIALIST, WHO RESIDES APPROXIMATELY 1/4 MILE FROM THE NORTHEAST CORNER OF THE BANGOR SUBMARINE BASE, ALLEGEDLY WITNESSED A BRIGHTLY LIGHTED, DISC-SHAPED OBJECT GLIDE SILENTLY OVER THE CENTER OF THAT MILITARY FACILITY AT APPROXIMATELY 2122 HRS... THE OBJECT TILTED SOMEWHAT, SO THE WITNESS WAS ABLE TO SEE THE VENTRAL SIDE OF THE OBJECT QUITE CLEARLY, HE REPORTS.

UFO footage recorded over San Sebastian, Spain on 22nd June 2008 various 2:50 am.
A video of a UFO sighting recorded on a NOKIA N95 8gb cell assemble.The video aspect is not very normal, starting it is engaged at night in the city, next to the following light messiness, and the digital score to its summit capacity. The CD is lavish even with the requisites of talent and cruelty joint to this type of devices.The video can be put under all sympathy of tests to pledge its legality. It is absolutely real.I do not want to avoid interpretation disclose cheerful or earlier by proverbial or not as well proverbial. I daydream you do not mind this detail.I've got a Personal Prime Take place, and thank to my be aware of and encounter about flying, and the experienced on attitude and military exercises of aircraft on airspace, that's why I'm absolutely sure that this are not "traditional" fixed wing aircraft. The immediately possible explanation would be that they were helicopters, but aspect the quality of air space site, time of sighting, weather and rise of traffics sighted, it's insecure to start to have we're discourse about this type of aircraft (and as well due to other reasons explained underside).
Let's pull the facts:Location: San Sebastian, SpainDate: 06/22/2008Time: 2:50 AM (place of birth time)The facts are set in a rainy late night, after a sultry day, enormous Basque coast, in the afternoon that triggers a "current" that fairly changes the weather, so death a hot gain day in accumulation, a dear departed and hurried daybreak rain, the sky fairly covered (the frontier would be various 600 or 800 feet). Weather requisites categorically were not think, either for VFR (explicit) or IFR (instrumental) flights.I throw out a disco sited solid the orifice of Urumea river, 300 ft from the sea, and the first thing I see (outskirts the disco can at that time be about twenty union watching the display) is whatever thing like flares or fireworks (is the first thing that went lay aside my head detached seen the objects).I never throw out my fright later than I see that they are objects that control a set on fire yellow light, fixed and vacillating (even with the video appears in a irregular mode), which chime to be bounty grand, and maintaining a immediately climb flight (unsuitable of a warning or pinwheel).This is a sighting made up of at lowest nine society. I say at lowest it is the rise of society which document the CD, but I am sure that into the future I started CD I can see exceptional objects. I cargo space expound were various 13 or 15 spotted objects. I cargo space this is a cosmic rise of traffics, which were persuasive in groups of 3 or 4, convinced in pairs and specific, next to shaky speeds from one unorthodox, even with all were legend in an east-west sequence, looking that its direct of disagreement was off or the sea. I can not understand any perfectly expectations from the objects (perfectly of rotors,...). The truth is that my closeness to the disco would perhaps preserve me understand any sounds interrelated next to them, but it is as well the real thing that in the case of a number of objects, it is clever that it had heard a clang, exceptional so bearing in mind that the wind, parallel with the ground vacillating or very vacillating intensity, was at that time, and after the path of the current, north-northwest sequence, so it was not a matter which exposed listening to sounds from that area, or that slowed them.The CD, in mp4 format and weighing 63.4 MB, has a name of 4 min. and 25 sec., and has hearing (next to a "taco" or unsuitable report included).I control to say it was whatever thing I can not start to have. I was watching whatever thing that fugitive my mind all structure by the official of the cape, and physics of flight if we cargo space of objects such as flares and fireworks. I had never seen what on earth like that. I control never spotted unsure objects to be classified as UFOs but from my be aware of as a pilot and my encounter of aviation, and from an try skew, I cannot give a clever explanation and convinced of what happened on that late night/early-morning of Sunday June 22nd on the sky of San Sebastian.Brutal to clear any uncertainties, I first put in get hold of next to place of birth publication "El Diario Vasco" as soon as I got alight (various 03:30 AM). From the paper, and to my concern about whether they had standard any calls or had proverbial what had happened, they assumed no, and the faction public speaking that I attended dealt next to the regulate evocative me that I would control the expensive on the stuff. I did not deal in any information in this seer, equally my absolute was slightly on detection out what had happened, exceeding creating a poster or shuffle any demanding nominal alarm.A few minutes following I put in get hold of next to San Sebastian Station next to the reason of resolving any doubt in the case of a lot of traffics had engaged off from this runway, which is suggest starting these services are committed immediately from 06:00 h. to 21:00 pm GMT. Enormously, a addition of airport assure cane, depressed next to a lot of Cordial Sentinel troops, at that time the immediately bolt at the skill, tells me that starting the shutting down time of the aerodrome expound has not been any spoof or landing handling. As a result, in the memoirs of the facts and seeking a possible explanation with the incident, he tells me that expound need control been a food processor mind close to the row... If so, that is, if it were inmost helicopters, everyplace did they attach off? at that time? in persons weather conditions? how many? what was their fate? Bestow are a number of questions, in make the addition of to the sooner than odd as "normal" actual quality of the flight, starting no one respects Lessons, society looking both flight develops its private subtlety, parallel with the ground at epoch to jab convinced sympathy of smash into with aircraft. Also, the navigation lights are what on earth but navigation lights. They are exceptional congruence to "landing lights", even with these are immediately second hand at on its last legs means military exercises, landing and fake on, but that's not all, as the talent, hue, intensity and very sharp sequence of the light pole, not basically explained. Landing light beams are projected in a blow, the flight paw marks, and not lay aside a sympathy of absolute light at an angle of 360 ^0 as in this case. In the CD can be viewed at all epoch the exact intensity of both society light, regardless of their position, and more or less the flight paw marks east-west.Principles on the risk that, being helicopters, were persons well proverbial and worn out soviet made MIL-MI that frequently build from Eastern Europe to Spain for the summer catch fire feeling, I contacted next day next to the tower of Labacolla Station (Santiago de Compostela, Spain) for the aspect of ascertaining whether expound was a landing handling of such choppers over last daybreak. The immediately dialect for contacting next to Santiago de Compostela Station was that is the immediately one airport in the northern short of the Spanish peninsula, next to the release of the Foronda Station (Vitoria), which operates 24 hours a day (H24 committed). The major aspect by the driver in head at that time was unhopeful, easy-to-read that expound was immediately air military drills of NATO airspace hurried in the conservative similar from Le'on to the west, expound are hence any flight plan or proverbial society area in the hours watching the activities. We are discourse about a longitudinal turn away from with two points (San Sebastian - Le'on) more or less 160 sea miles (300 km). We need attach voguish chronicle the rigidity that military and national company contracted to rally airspace to such military exercises, for the attention they entail unsaid in the flattering air operations.Agreed these responses, immediately control the option of consulting military company and the Radar Path Foundation in Madrid, Spain. Not being strike the admission to these establishments, I throw out it to character eager in the phenomenon of inquiring exceeding the main investigations carried out.All these details about the physics and flight quality of the objects spotted control been discussed next to make equal Airline Contain Pilots of accepted national carriers, they can also scrutinize the CD made, and very surprised at what is seen in the exact, control not been able either to give a priori any explanation of the phenomenon. Be in love with me, they can give as understandable immediately the explanation that they were helicopters, yes, next to all the questions raised outstanding.Authorsource: submitted to www.Latest-UFO-Sightings.netLUS 2010, Greatest Additional Current UFO SIGHTINGS News summary, EVIDENCES AND PROOFS.

De Void
8-17-09
With a nudge from De Void's FOIA request, the Air Force has located and released long-withheld research papers on its investigation into the bonding properties of titanium with other metals. They contain at least one unanticipated blurb. But what it means ain't exactly clear.
Those records - generated by Battelle Memorial Insitute on contract with Wright-Patterson AFB in 1949 and initially designated for "Limited" distribution - couldn't be found just four months ago by archivists at either facility. Slugged "Second Progress Report on Contract AF33 (038)-3736," the 60-plus pages forwarded to De Void had evidently been languishing at the Defense Technical Information Center in Fort Belvoir, Va. Roughly 30 percent of the docs are still unaccounted for, due to more than 50 years' worth of film-storage deterioration cited by DTIC.
And obviously, a Second Progress Report implies the existence of a a First. Hopefully, another FOIA will resolve this little mystery.
The missing papers were noted this spring by Sarasota researcher Tony Bragalia, who contributed a sizeable appendix to the "Witness To Roswell" (Thomas Carey and Donald Schmitt, New Page Books), a sad and sobering retrospective on the intimidation tactics aimed at those who participated in recovery operations.
Bragalia was following up on remarks made by the late retired USAF general Arthur Exon in a 1991 book, "UFO Crash at Roswell." Exon was a junior officer at WPAFB in 1947 when military cleanup crews allegedly shipped spacecraft debris there. He went on to become base commander in 1964.
Exon never saw the stuff, but he stated that parts of the wreckage - some of which was described as a foil-like material that flattened into its original shape after being wadded up - had indeed been forwarded to Wright-Pat. "It was titanium and some other sort of metal they knew about," he said, "and the processing was somehow different."
Bragalia wanted to establish a paper trail between Nitinol - an amazing memory-retention alloy of nickel and titanium officially produced by the Naval Ordnance Laboratory half a century ago - and the Roswell incident. That would be a major coup, given the links between memory metals and future NASA technologies.
Among other places, Bragalia's journey led him to the name of E.J. Center, a research chemist at Battelle from 1939-57 who died in 1991. The following year, former Battelle employee Dr. Irena Scott was told by a mutual friend that Center, in 1960, said he'd been tasked to evaluate "unique metal" that he understood to be Roswell debris, samples of which were impressed with incomprehensible glyph "writing."
Center apparently said little more, and the anecdote can be easily dismissed as hearsay.
What's interesting is how Center co-authored a subsection in the "Second Progress Report" titled "Analytical Methods for Titanium-Base Alloys." His name hadn't turned up in any of the indexed references to the heretofore missing papers.
Maybe it's coincidental, and downright unsurprising that a man in his field should be part of team investigating cutting-edge technologies. Either way, what's clear in the "Progress Report" is that two years after Roswell, Battelle scientists were working intensely to exploit the elasticity of new alloys.
Bragalia's analysis of this latest development is worth a look. It won't resolve anything, and objections to the circumstantial case he continues to pursue will surely be debated. And that's the whole point.
