A decent UFO story for a change, not just a tiny out of focus fleck in the sky, or a moving light. UFOs spotted off Irish coast under investigation What did the pilots see off the coast of Ireland? The Irish Aviation Authority is investigating reports of bright lights and UFOs off the...

Alerted to this by an article in the Graunaid. The there's a character called Mr Matchbright which may hint at where it's going. Warning scary clown and probably not NSFW On the basis os this film I'd really like to see a Alan Moore/David Lynch collaboration Alan Moore: why I turned...

Astrobiology Interesting item - it's either a brilliant insight or bonkers. It looks a lot like Lovelock's Gaia hypothesis, with slightly different mechansism of action. BTW There must be a Gaia thread here somewhere, but my search won't find it. FULL PAPER HERE...

I was wilfing the other night and came across the site for the Newgate Calendar - which started as court reports and developed into a sort of proto-True Crimes - that was published from around 1750 to 1840. Someone's put them online (based on a 1926 edition). One appendix contains several...

With the first step towards, being able to recover information from the brain, and now fubctional brain implants, the world of neuroscience seems to have gone rather science fictiony lately. If they can get this working it could be very useful for certain types of brain and spinal injury.

I was photographing the heavy frost in the garden this morning. When I uploaded this picture there were mysterious shapes that I didn't see when I took it!

The Grauniad Tortoise realdolls!

This has just plopped through the letterbox, looks promising, Jesus in Britain, a big feature on photographing ghosts, Lightning Images and Brion Gysin's dream machine... a thick issue too.

This is very strange, it's the Life Of Brian incarnate. It would be so tempting exploit it, though the crucifixion thing could be a bit of a bummer... :roll: The Grauniad

MIB? Daily Torygraph

Norwich Evening News I've locked up at Cinema City late at night, but I never spotted anything vaguely paranormal.

Mr Brown's latest opus is due in September, but the hype is beginning to build. It looks like another half-baked melange of conspiracy theories. It'll probably sell millions (I'm only jealous) Reuters

Although it's not supposed to be out until 12/12, my local multiplex had it out today so I thought I'd see it before the critics got to it. Actually it's not bad and if you didn't know the original, quite good.

ARCHIVE: http://web.archive.org/web/200107171449 ... rain.shtml Ghost Train Station My brother Mark had a job where he had to turn up very early to a non-passenger rural station to see in a coal train, then wait an hour or more for the next. He cannily rigged up a little comfy bed and would...

I only found this because I read a Daily Mail someone left on the tube. It's not a new idea, but there does seem to be an upsurge in interest in ETs. Are the press preparing is for something :shock: Or is it just the the Daily Hate Mail's run out of stories on Eastern European Immigrants...

Mediums and spirits, and the Holy Blood, Holy Grail phenomenon have been the the top paranormal/weird shit topics for the past few years. Could the next big thing be a fairy revival? This is about the third article on this subject that I've seen recently; The Fairyland Grauniad

If it's Anglian Water doing the checking they'll charge for it whether or not it's from their mains.

This was in the Scum, must have had amazing cloaking devices to be invisible to everyone else and their cameras. Sun

This probably explains something though I'm not sure what... New Scientist

I wonder if the Russian authorities will handle this as well as the US did with the Branch Davidians... And if the world's not ending until next May, why not leave it until a bit closer to the date before going to ground, that way your supplies would last longer after doomsday..

Intriguing how you can find new properties of an old drug.

Possibly good news for some folks. Though within a couple of weeks the interweb's going to be covered in snake-oil merchants and quacks claiming that their baldnes cure uses this technique.

I wasn't sure if this belonged in culture, UFOLOGY or general. May have a go a doing this locally... :wink: The Grauniad

Well the Grauniad would say that wouldn't it :wink: I think the writer's mistaking incompetence and rhetoric for a coherent plan...

Now I like cheese, but this is bizarre. Hunts Post

From the Grauniad I wondered what the Rev Fanthorpe had been up to lately.

Mu resurfacing, or is this R'lyeh popping up Find this article at: http://www.cnn.com/2006/WORLD/asiapcf/1 ... index.html

Someone's been watching too much Star Trek and Doctor Who. I suspect this is a lot further off than the impression gievn in the article.

The US seems to have more secret bunkers than would really seem necessary. If this one's now coming out of the shadows agin I sense a whole new batch of conspiracy theories brewing up. The Grauniad I like this bit, shades of Thunderbirds:

It looks more like an upgraded version of Apollo than anything new.

Those of you who read Nexus, will have come across this before, but it looks as if the story is going mainstream So is Dr Fitzpatrick the voice of reason crying out in the wilderness? Is the agribusiness conspiring to sell us dodgy beans? Does it all amount to a hill of beans? What about...

This sounds reminds me of the old joke "I dreamt I was eating giant marshmallow. Then when I woke up in the morning my pillow was gone."

Odd or clever marketing? The Grauniad

Out of curiosity, did anyone go on this? I was surprised to find out that there's still apparently extensive prejudice against pagans. I thought it was just sloppy tabloid journalism, and fundamentalists of all species who equated paganism with eating babies etc...
