In traditional mythology and folklore, and in modern fantasy fiction, shapeshifting is the ability of a being to physically transform into another form or being, either as an inherent faculty of a mythological creature, or by means of magic.</h3>
<h3 style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 1.1em !important; line-height: 21px;">
The concept is of great antiquity, and may indeed be a human cultural universal, present in the oldest forms of totemism or shamanism, it is present in the oldest extant literature and epic poems (such as the Gilgamesh Epic or the Iliad), where the shape-shifting is usually induced by the act of a deity; it persisted into the literature of the Middle Ages and the modern period (where the agency causing shape-shifting is mostly a sorcerer or witch), and it remains a common trope in modern fantasy, children’s literature and works of pop culture.</h3>
<h3 style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 1.1em !important; line-height: 21px;">
<span style="font-size: 12px;">By far the most common form of shape-shifting is therianthropy, the transformation of a human being into an animal (or conversely of an animal into human form). More rarely, the transformation may be into a plant or object, or into another human form (e.g. fair to ugly, or vice versa). .</span><img src="http://s2.hubimg.com/u/7634549_f260.jpg" style="border: none; max-width: 660px; padding: 5px;" /> John Kerry Reptilian Confirmed Shapeshifter Proof.</h3>

Photosynthesis is ultimately responsible for the high oxygen levels and the thick ozone layer. Microbes emit methane and nitrous oxide into the atmosphere, and seaweeds emit chloromethane gas. These chemicals, when present in sufficient quantities, are indicators of life and are known as atmospheric biomarkers. Detecting them in the atmosphere of an exoplanet should, in theory, be a means of discovering whether life exists on any alien worlds.</span><br />

<br />While biomarkers have never been spotted in observations of an exoplanet, because their signal is so faint, the new generation of telescopes being planned today, such as<a name='more'></a> the European Extremely Large Telescope, may be sensitive enough to detect them. New research presented to the European Planetary Science Congress at UCL by Lee Grenfell (DLR) aims to explore how such biomarkers might be detected in future.<br />
“The main aim of our work is to assess the possible range of biomarker signals that might be detected by future telescopes,” Grenfell explains. “To do this, we developed computer models of exoplanets which simulate the abundances of different biomarkers and the way they affect the light shining through a planet’s atmosphere.”<br />
Chemicals in a planet’s atmosphere affect light that passes through it, leaving characteristic chemical fingerprints in the star’s spectrum. Using this technique, astronomers have already deduced a wealth of information about the conditions present in (large, hot) exoplanets. Biomarkers would be detected in much the same way, but here the signal is expected to be so weak that scientists will need a solid understanding based on theoretical models before they can hope to decipher the actual data.<br />
“In our simulations, we modelled an exoplanet similar to the Earth, which we then placed in different orbits around stars, calculating how the biomarker signals respond to differing conditions,” Grenfell explains. “We focused on red-dwarf stars, which are smaller and fainter than our Sun, since we expect any biomarker signals from planets orbiting such stars to be easier to detect.”<br />
For detections of the biomarker ozone, the team confirms that there appears to be a ‘Goldilocks’ effect when it comes to the amount of ultraviolet radiation from the star to which the planet is exposed. With weak UV radiation, less ozone is produced in the atmosphere and its detection is challenging. Too much UV leads to increased heating in the middle atmosphere that weakens the vertical gradient and destroys the signal. At intermediate UV, the conditions are ‘just right’ for detecting ozone.<br />
“We find that variations in the UV emissions of red-dwarf stars have a potentially large impact on atmospheric biosignatures in simulations of Earth-like exoplanets. Our work emphasizes the need for future missions to characterise the UV emissions of this type of star,” said Grenfell.<br />
There are other limitations on using this method to detect signs of life. For example, it is assuming that any life-bearing planets would be identical to Earth, which is not guaranteed. Moreover, scientists will have to be certain that apparent biomarker signals they find truly arose from life, and not from other, non-living processes. Finally, dim red dwarf stars may not be the most suitable for the onset and maintenance of life. Nevertheless, this technique is an extremely promising one for detecting potential signs of life on alien worlds.<br />
Grenfell concludes: “For the first time we are reaching a point where serious scientific debate can be applied to address the age-old question: are we alone?”<br />
This research has been submitted to the journal Planetary & Space Science (2013) “Planetary Evolution and Life” Special Issue.<br />

<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">In 7,500 BCE, this city in the Mesopotamian region (now Turkey) held thousands of people and is believed by many to be one of the world's earliest urban settlements. But the culture of the people here was unlike anything we know today. First of all, they built the city like a honeycomb, with houses sharing walls. Homes and buildings were accessed by doors cut into the roofs. People would stroll on the streets across these roofs, and climb down ladders to get to their living quarters. Doorways were often marked with bulls' horns, and <a href="http://io9.com/5816839/ancient-graves-reveal-that-family-didnt-really-matter-9000-years-ago" sl-processed="1" style="box-sizing: border-box; line-height: inherit; text-decoration: none;">dead family members were buried in the floor of each home</a>. It's not clear what happened to the culture of the people who lived in this city. Their architectural style seems to be unique, though archaeologists have found many fertility goddess figurines in the city that resemble others found in the region.

<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">As one of the largest and best preserved of the Maya city-states, Palenque is emblematic of the mystery of the entire Maya civilization — which rose up, dominated parts of Mexico, Guatemala, Belize and Honduras, then vanished with little explanation. Though descendants of the Maya are still thriving in Mexico and Central America, no one is sure why the great cities of the Maya fell into ruin and were finally abandoned in the 1400s. Palenque was in its heyday during the classical period of the Maya civilization, from about 700-1100 CE. Like many Maya cities, it had temples, palaces, and marketplaces. But Palenque, located near what is today known as the Chiapas region, has some of the most detailed sculptures and inscriptions from the Maya civilization, offering reams of historical information about kings, battles, and daily life. Theories for why this and other Maya cities were abandoned include warfare, famine, and <a href="http://io9.com/5886796/did-mild-weather-really-destroy-the-mayan-empire" sl-processed="1" style="box-sizing: border-box; line-height: inherit; text-decoration: none;">climate change</a>.</span></div>

<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">Located across the Mississippi River from what is today St. Louis, Cahokia was for hundreds of years the biggest city in North America. Its inhabitants built enormous earthen mounds — some of which you can still visit today — and vast plazas which served as markets and meeting places. There is strong evidence that the inhabitants had very sophisticated agricultural practices, and that they diverted tributaries of the Mississippi several times to water their fields. Like the Maya, the people of Cahokia were at their civilizational height between 600-1400 CE. Nobody is certain <a href="http://io9.com/5928085/10-civilizations-that-disappeared-under-mysterious-circumstances" sl-processed="1" style="box-sizing: border-box; line-height: inherit; text-decoration: none;">why the city was abandoned</a>, nor how the region was able to support such a high-density urban civilization of up to 40,000 people for hundreds of years.</span></div>

It's unknown when the city was begun — some sources say as early at the 7th century BCE — but it wouldn't have reached its greatest size until the period between 500-1000 CE, when it was five stories deep with room for 20,000 people, plus livestock, kitchens, a church, and a wine-making facility. Locals dug tunnels and rooms beneath their homes, deep into the soft, sandy volcanic rock of the central Turkish region of Cappadocia. An entire underground civilization was thriving here during the middle ages, which <a data-amazonasin="0385535910" data-amazonsubtag="[postId|1239294825[asin|0385535910[authorId|5717795175536518860" data-amazontag="io9amzn-20" href="http://www.amazon.com/Scatter-Adapt-Remember-Survive-Extinction/dp/0385535910?tag=io9amzn-20&ascsubtag=[type|link[postId|1239294825[asin|0385535910[authorId|5717795175536518860" sl-processed="1" style="box-sizing: border-box; line-height: inherit; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">could provide a model for future communities trying to survive an apocalypse</a>.</span></div>

<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">For centuries, people had fled to the area to find a safe haven from anti-Christian Romans, bandits, and later, anti-Christian Muslims. Massive rocks could be rolled across the entrances, and air shafts kept the place ventilated while people lived inside for months at a time. Eventually, long shafts were dug to connect Derinkuyu with other underground cities in the area. The was city was sealed up at some point after the 10th century, and was only reopened to the public in 1969.</span></div>

<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">There are ample historical records that document the Roman vacation town of Pompeii, which was entombed in ash after the catastrophic eruption of Mt. Vesuvius in 79 CE. We know that the city was partially destroyed by an earthquake years before the volcano erupted, and that many of its greatest homes were already abandoned by the time the final blast erased the city forever. We even know, from historical records, that Vesuvius started smoking and causing quakes in the days leading up to the fatal eruption. So what's the mystery?</span></div>

<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">A lot remains mysterious about the Inca Empire, which dominated parts of the regions now known as Peru, Chile, Ecuador, Bolivia and Argentina for hundreds of years before the Spanish invaded, destroyed its cities, and burned its libraries of <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quipu" sl-processed="1" style="box-sizing: border-box; line-height: inherit; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">quipu</a>records (the Inca language was "written" with knots and rope). Though we know a lot about Inca technology, architecture and advanced agriculture — all of which are in evidence at major Inca city Machu Picchu — we still can't read what's left of the tapestries that contain their written records. And we don't understand how they ran a vast empire <a href="http://io9.com/the-greatest-mystery-of-the-inca-empire-was-its-strange-1198541254" sl-processed="1" style="box-sizing: border-box; line-height: inherit; text-decoration: none;">without ever building a single marketplace</a>. That's right — Machu Picchu and other Inca cities contain no markets. This dramatically different from most other cities, which are often built around central market squares and plazas. How did such a successful civilization exist without a recognizable economy? Maybe one day we'll discover the answers.</span></div>

<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">In the 8th century BCE, this legendary city was the gateway to Egypt, a port town that was full of incredible monuments, rich merchants, and huge buildings. Now it is entirely submerged in the Mediterranean Sea. Thonis began its slow decline after the rise of Alexandria in the 300s CE. But eventually that slide became literal, as the city drowned in the sea that was once the source of its wealth. Nobody is certain how it happened, but by the 8th century CE the city was gone. It may have been the victim of liquefaction after an earthquake.</span></div>

<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">One of the great mysteries of southern Africa is the enormous, walled city known today as Great Zimbabwe. The city was home to as many as 30,000 people, and was at its peak from 1200-1450, when it was the heart of an international trade region that stretched as far as China and India. Wealth poured into the city from distant lands, but it was also rich in gold from local mines and vast herds of cattle. Still, there are some unknowns here — it's not clear how far the city's influence stretched, nor what all its industries were. Clearly, though, it was technologically advanced. <a href="http://www.bbc.co.uk/worldservice/africa/features/storyofafrica/10chapter1.shtml" sl-processed="1" style="box-sizing: border-box; line-height: inherit; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">The BBC describes the greatest remaining monument from the city</a>:</span></div>
<blockquote data-textannotation-id="8ae86cbc59a18c1b2f0b02316ce724d6" style="border-left-width: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; direction: ltr; font-size: 15px; font-style: italic; line-height: 1.5; margin: 10px 0px 19px 18px; max-width: 100%; overflow: auto; padding: 16px 35px; width: 638.390625px;">
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; direction: ltr; line-height: 1.5; padding: 0px; word-break: break-word;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">The Great Zimbabwe monument is built out of granite which is the parent rock of the region - i.e. it predominates locally. The building method used was dry-stone walling, demanding a high level of masonry expertise. Some of the site is built round natural rock formations. The actual structure comprises a huge enclosing wall some 20 metres high. Inside there are concentric passageways, along with a number of enclosures. One of these is thought to be a royal enclosure. Large quantities of gold and ceremonial battle axes, along with other objects have been found there.</span></div>

<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">Like many cosmopolitan cities of its era, Great Zimbabwe suffered a mysterious decline. Famines caused by overgrazing may have contributed to its demise, or perhaps a shift in preferred trade routes. If we understood more about the city's local industries and trade partners, we might understand better what led to its downfall.</span></div>

<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">Over the past few years, rumors have circulated in Japan about the existence of gigantic humanoid life-forms inhabiting the icy waters of the Antarctic.</span></div>
<div align="center" style="font-family: Arial, Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; margin-bottom: 15px; padding: 0px;">

<div style="font-family: Arial, Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; margin-bottom: 15px; padding: 0px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">Reportedly observed on multiple occasions by crew members of government-operated "whale research" ships, these so-called "Ningen" (lit. "humans") are said to be completely white in color with an estimated length of 20 to 30 meters. Eyewitnesses describe them as having a human-like shape, often with legs, arms, and even five-fingered hands. Sometimes they are described as having fins or a large mermaid-like tail instead of legs. The only visible facial features are the eyes and mouth.</span></div>

<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">According to one account, crew members on deck observed what they initially thought was a foreign submarine in the distance. When they approached, however, it became clear from the irregular shape of the thing that it was not man-made -- it was alive. The creature quickly disappeared under water.</span></div>
<div align="center" style="font-family: Arial, Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; margin-bottom: 15px; padding: 0px;">

<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">For the most part, the existence of the Ningen is considered an urban legend. Much of the information about this rumored creature can be traced back to a series of posts on the 2channel forums, written by a person describing the experience of a friend employed on a government "whale research" vessel. (<a href="http://homepage3.nifty.com/Daiou3/Ningen.html" style="cursor: pointer; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration: none;">Read the full Japanese text of the original story that first appeared on a 2channel forum</a>.)</span></div>

<div style="font-family: Arial, Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; margin-bottom: 15px; padding: 0px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">The popular thread attracted the attention of many readers from outside the 2channel community, and the November 2007 issue of <em style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">MU</em> magazine, a Japanese publication devoted to the study of paranormal phenomena, featured an article about the Antarctic humanoids.</span></div>
<div style="font-family: Arial, Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; margin-bottom: 15px; padding: 0px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">The article speculated on the possibility of unidentified creatures inhabiting the southern seas, and it included a Google Maps screenshot showing what looks like a Ningen in the South Atlantic Ocean off the coast of Namibia.</span></div>
<div align="center" style="font-family: Arial, Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; margin-bottom: 15px; padding: 0px;">

<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">To date, no solid evidence has been presented to confirm the existence of the Ningen. The government is believed to have kept detailed records of the sightings, but they have released no information to the public and have reportedly instructed eyewitnesses to remain silent.</span></div>
<div style="font-family: Arial, Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; margin-bottom: 15px; padding: 0px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">Two videos claiming to show Ningen under water have been posted on YouTube.</span></div>

<div style="font-family: Arial, Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; margin-bottom: 15px; padding: 0px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">Ningen sightings seem to occur most frequently at night, making them all the more difficult to photograph. In still images, the sea cryptids mostly just look like icebergs, though it is said that their smooth, human-like skin can be seen when the photographs are enlarged.</span></div>
<div align="center" style="font-family: Arial, Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; margin-bottom: 15px; padding: 0px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><img alt="Antarctic ningen humanoid -- " src="http://pinktentacle.com/images/10/xantarctic_humanoid_4.jpg.pagespeed.ic._9THJyJ6WW.jpg" style="border: 1px solid rgb(31, 56, 59); margin: 0px; padding: 0px; width: auto;" /><br style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" /><em style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">Artist's rendition of a mermaid-like Ningen</em></span></div>

<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">In any case, no convincing photographs have been made public, either because they do not exist or because, as some argue, the government does not want to invite undue scrutiny and tarnish the scientific reputation of the whale research program.</span></div>

Radio DJ, Nick Margerisson, of Kerrang! Radio, could not believe his ears as Mitchell openly discussed the subject on his radio show on 22nd of July, 2008.</span></div>

Radio<br />22/07/2008 23:00 GMT</b></span><span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: x-small;"><br /><br />Nick Margerrison :Do you believe in life on other planets?<br /><br />Dr Mitchell: Oh yes there’s not much question at all but there’s life throughout the universe, we’re not alone in the universe at all<br /><br />N – You’re convinced that we’re not alone in the Universe?</span></span></div>
<a name='more'></a><span style="background-color: black; color: white; font-family: Verdana; font-size: x-small;"><br /><br />DM- Oh I know for sure that we’re not alone in the Universe. Now have we been able to identify for sure where the other planets are? No we have not. Certainly not in our Solar System. But they’ve identified quite a number of other planets now that very likely could be life bearing planets. And I’ve been very privileged enough to be in on the fact that we have been visited on this planet and the UFO phenomenon is real although it’s been covered up by governments for quite a long time.<br /><br />N - Woah. Hang on a minute this is big. Woah all this is quite a shock to me.<br /><br />DM – Well I’m sorry have you not been reading the papers recently, its starting to open up quite a bit.<br /><br />N – Well this is a lot of information to take on board. I’ve heard crazy UFO nuts tell me this kind of thing before, I’ve never had Dr Ed Mitchell – the sixth man to walk on the moon - a respected scientist in his own right announce to me that we’ve been visited by aliens from other planets and they’re definitely out there – there’s no debating it?<br /><br />DM – Well you should have talked to me and I would have told you about it before<br /><br />N – So you believe the whole deal<br /><br />DM – There’s more nonsense out there about this than real knowledge – but it is a real phenomenon and there’s quite a few of us – its been well covered up by all of our governments for the last 60 years or so but slowly its leaked out and some of us have been privileged to have been briefed on some of it. I happen to have grown up in Roswell in New Mexico where presumably the Roswell incident of 1947 took place and I’m quite knowledgeable about there since I grew up there but I’ve also been in military circles and intelligence circles that knows beneath the circles of what has been public knowledge that – yes we have been visited.<br /><br />N - Are you been serious? You’re not just going to go I was pulling your leg there it’s not true? I was wondering if I had stumbled upon Astronaut humour and in a couple of minutes you’re going to go I was pulling your leg<br /><br />DM – No I won’t say that.<br /><br />N – Wow. So you’ve been briefed on the fact that we’ve been visited?<br /><br />DM – Well briefed is one word for it. I have been involved in much of this work – now its not my main work, its not my main interest but I have been deeply involved in certain committees and certain research programmes with very credible scientists and intelligence people that do know the real inside story and I am not hesitant to talk about it.<br /><br />N – What is the real inside story?<br /><br />DM – Well I’ve just been telling you, we have been visited<br /><br />N – So are we in regular contact or was it a one off crash?<br /><br />DM – There’s quite a bit of contact going on. I can’t tell you because I don’t know all the inside details because that isn’t my main interest but the fact is that we have been visited, the Roswell crash was real and a number of other contacts have been real and ongoing. It’s pretty well known to those of us who has been briefed and been close to the subject matter.<br /><br />N – So why is it being covered up then? Why is it not mainstream?<br /><br />DM – The reason for that goes back to the main incidents that started taking place after World War Two when in the United States at least - I can’t speak for the European governments or the South American governments – all of whom have recently started opening their files and this is starting to open up. Look at the internet or some of the International press and you start to get the stories coming out now<br /><br />N – I’ve had people on the show telling me the governments are mounting up towards disclosure towards saying that this is the case. Do you think there will be an actual disclosure this year?<br /><br />DM – I don’t know whether it will be this year in the United States. But certainly we’ve already had it in the last few years from the Belgian government, the French government, the Brazilian government, the Mexican government. They’ve opened their files and admittedly had the files.<br /><br />N – Do you think we’re ramping up to the UK admitting?<br /><br />DM – Well I can’t say how fast it’s going to happen but certainly the public awareness is increasing, the public acceptance is increasing. The attempts to cover up seem to be decreasing, I think we’re heading toward real disclosure and there are some very serious organisations moving in that direction.<br /><br />N – What do you think the impact will be on the world when it is finally mainstream news that there are alien beings that live outside this planet?<br /><br />DM – Certainly in the United States well over 70% of the people now accept this as fact. They do not know all the correct story but they accept the fact that there’s visitation. There are UFO’s in the sky all the time which are very likely to be alien craft. Now not all of them are – I suspect some of them are home-grown. I suspect that in the last 60 years or so there has been some back-engineering and the creation of this type of equipment that is not nearly as sophisticated – yet – as what the apparent visitors have<br /><br />N – As part of you knowing about this and also going public with this, are you worried with your safety?<br /><br />DM – I think those days are gone. That used to be a concern among the people on the inside but I don’t think they’re knocking anybody off for that anymore, or doing drastic things to them<br /><br />N – What do you think the intent of the aliens is? Is it hostile or peaceful?<br /><br />DM – It’s not hostile. It’s pretty obvious that if it were hostile we’d have been gone by now.<br /><br />N- Really?<br /><br />DM – We could have been. We had no defence if that’s what their real intent was<br /><br />N- What do they look like?<br /><br />DM – You’ve seen some of the pictures. The pictures that I know of are little people that look strange to us as far as I know from my contacts that have had contact – that looks pretty accurate<br /><br />N - Do you think other people that were involved in the moon landings know about this?<br /><br />DM – Some of them do but again it’s like other people, If you’re interested enough to dig into it and want to know about it – you can know about it.<br /><br />N – This has been easily one of the most significant conversations of my life, unbelievable. I want to thank you for joining us, wow what an incredible conversation<br /><br />DM – I’m glad you enjoyed it.</span><br />

<span style="background-color: black; color: white; font-size: 14px;">C/2012 S1, also known as Comet ISON, is a sungrazing comet discovered on 21 September 2012 by Vitali Nevski (Виталий Невский, Vitebsk, Belarus) and Artyom Novichonok (Артём Новичонок, Kondopoga, Russia).The discovery was made using the 0.4-meter (16 in) reflector of the International Scientific Optical Network near Kislovodsk, Russia and the automated asteroid-discovery program CoLiTec. Precovery images by the Mount Lemmon Survey from 28 December 2011 and by Pan-STARRS from 28 January 2012 were quickly located. Follow-up observations were made on 22 September by a team from Remanzacco Observatory in Italy using the iTelescope network. The discovery was announced by the Minor Planet Center on 24 September. Observations by SWIFT suggest that C/2012 S1′s nucleus is around 5 kilometers (3.1 mi) in diameter.[8]DAHBOO7…..the messenger</span></h3>

<div style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">A New Hampshire man noticed an unexpected guest in one of his friend’s Facebook photos recently. He posted the odd <a href="http://beforeitsnews.com/r2/?url=http://www.examiner.com/slideshow/man-notices-ghostly-figure-friend-s-facebook-profile-photo" rel="nofollow" style="text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">image</a> of his friend and her dog on <a href="http://beforeitsnews.com/r2/?url=http://www.examiner.com/article/ghostly-figure-found-on-facebook-profile-photo" rel="nofollow" style="text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">Reddit</a> last week.</span></div>
<div style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">On August 20, 2013, Daniel Tanner noticed a ghostly figure in one of his friend’s Facebook photos. In the photo, Tanner’s friend is seen kneeling with her dog posing for a photo, and in the reflection of the door behind her, a ghost of a young woman is seen peering at them.</span></div>
<div style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">“My friend has been claiming for </span></div>
<a name='more'></a><span style="background-color: black; color: white;">months that her house is haunted. Her husband took this pic a few days ago,” Tanner said in the post with the attached image under his MulberryPlacebo screen name.</span><br />
<div style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">According to Tanner, the only people in the house at the time the photo was taken was the woman and her husband.</span></div>
<div style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">A few Redditors weighed in with opinions. Most of them thought it was fake or edited. Some thought the figure was a reflection in the glass.</span></div>
<div style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">“I believe it’s just a reflection, of what, I can’t say, could be a living person, could be a statue, could be a painting. In my opinion, this is not paranormal. Rule of thumb is never trust something seen in a mirror or piece of glass. Reflections can be absolutely anything. If I had to speculate, I’d go with a living person standing to the right of the photographer,” User Jack Shid said.</span></div>
<div style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">One Redditor even analyzed the photo for editing by uploading it to <a href="http://beforeitsnews.com/r2/?url=http://www.examiner.com/slideshow/man-notices-ghostly-figure-friend-s-facebook-profile-photo#slide=2" rel="nofollow" style="text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">FotoForensics</a>. According to him the photo is genuine.</span></div>
<div style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">“Other than the bar that was put over the friend’s eyes, the photo doesn’t seem to be edited. Either it’s a reflection or there is indeed a ghost,” User Kyranmat posted after he uploaded the image to FotoForensics.</span></div>
<div style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">User Ariandre pointed out that the ghostly woman can still be seen in the inverted image, only the figure was behind the woman instead of a reflection in the window.</span></div>
<div style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">“The creepy thing is the second one you did now makes it look like the girl is in front of the door instead of a reflection. You can almost make out an outline of her whole body,” Ariandre said.</span></div>
<div style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">An expert photo analyst with over 15 years of experience ran a detailed <a href="http://beforeitsnews.com/r2/?url=http://www.examiner.com/slideshow/man-notices-ghostly-figure-friend-s-facebook-profile-photo#slide=5" rel="nofollow" style="text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">analysis</a> of the image.</span></div>
<div style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">“In summary, I cannot find any tampering evident in this photograph. Whatever this is, I’m unable to disprove it. The only other thing I can possibly suggest might be going on in this picture is a very elaborate projection set up, but even that I don’t believe is the case because the lighting in the mud room is quite dim. I would expect a projection to cause light glare on the mirror and there is none. I guess I’m saying I believe this is paranormal,” the image expert said.</span></div>
<div style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px;">

<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">By Susan Duclos</span></div>
<div style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">Virginia’s <a href="http://beforeitsnews.com/r2/?url=http://www.southwesttimes.com/2013/08/unidentified-animal-seen-on-trail-cam/" rel="nofollow" style="text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">Southwest Times</a> had a picture submitted to them by Roger Williams, with the very first question asking “Can you help identify this animal from the picture shown here?”</span></div>
<div style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">The picture submitted was taken with a “trail cam” set up in the nearby mountains, so Mr. Williams does not claim to have seen the unidentified ape-like animal, but describes what he found by carefully scrutinizing the image, “it appears that the right arm shows fingers as the animal grasps the base of the tree stump. It also has elongated feet similar to a man’s appendages. Its fur is matted on the back but thin on the arms and legs. Unfortunately, the head and face are not shown by the image taken.”</span></div>
<div style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">In the comment section of The Southwest Times, guesses range from a gibbon to an ape to a bear, one said an orangutan and others think it is a Juvenile Sasquatch aka “Bigfoot.”</span></div>

<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">As we ease into our Golden Age, when all truths must be known, we learn that underground and close to the pyramids is a network of chambers with stunningly beautiful white archways and niches. These were opened in December 2012.</span></h3>

<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">In the niches archeologists discovered at least 22 monolithic stone boxes, weighing about 60 to 70 tonnes each, including the solid stone lid of about 30 tonnes. One of the remarkable things about these boxes—which are empty, by the way—is that the surfaces are precision-honed to within a few ten-<a name='more'></a>thousandths of an inch of being perfectly flat, with perfect 90 degree corners.</span></h3>
<h3 style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 1.1em !important; line-height: 21px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">Not only that, but the inside surfaces of these boxes are highly polished to a near mirror finish. Perhaps the most notable fact about these boxes is the material of which they were constructed. Watch the video to learn more.

<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">Approach Of NIBIRU, Proof From The Head Of Homeland Security: Napolitano? She is warnining us about disasters that may come. </span></h3>
<h3 style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 1.1em !important; line-height: 21px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">The Nibiru cataclysm is a supposed disastrous encounter between the Earth and a large planetary object (either a collision or a near-miss) which certain groups believe will take place in the early 21st century. Believers in this doomsday event usually refer to this object as Planet X or Nibiru. The idea that a planet-sized object will collide with or pass by Earth in the near future is not supported by any scientific evidence and has been rejected aspseudoscience by astronomers and planetary scientists.</span></h3>
<div style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><iframe frameborder="0" height="360" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/OtkiaUIE4zI?feature=player_detailpage&wmode=transparent" style="max-width: 610px !important;" width="640"></iframe></span></div>
<h3 style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 1.1em !important; line-height: 21px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">Many believers in<a name='more'></a> the imminent approach of Planet X/Nibiru accuse NASA of deliberately covering up visual evidence of its existence. One such accusation involves the <a href="http://beforeitsnews.com/r2/?url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IRAS" rel="nofollow" style="text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">IRAS</a> infrared space observatory, launched in 1983. The satellite briefly made headlines due to an “unknown object” that was at first described as “possibly as large as the giant planet<a href="http://beforeitsnews.com/r2/?url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jupiter" rel="nofollow" style="text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">Jupiter</a> and possibly so close to Earth that it would be part of this Solar System”. This newspaper article has been cited by proponents of the Nibiru cataclysm, beginning with Lieder herself, as evidence for the existence of Nibiru. However, further analysis revealed that of several initially unidentified objects, nine were distant galaxies and the tenth was “<a href="http://beforeitsnews.com/r2/?url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infrared_cirrus" rel="nofollow" style="text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">intergalactic cirrus</a>“; none were found to be Solar System bodies.</span></h3>

<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">News States: Images recorded by four teenagers on Sunday (26) in Three Points (MG) raise concerns about the supposed appearance of a flying saucer in southern Minas. The video was uploaded by Internet users Lais Aparecida da Silva Correia to the “Vc in G1.” Images were recorded around 15h in the backyard of a house in the neighborhood Philadelphia, where the children played in the yard with a camera.</span></div>

<div style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px;">
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: white;">Canadian citizens are wondering what the strange sounds were that they heard resonating from the sky <a href="http://beforeitsnews.com/r2/?url=http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/british-columbia/story/2013/08/30/bc-terrace-sounds.html" rel="nofollow" style="text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">yesterday</a>. According to Canada’s CBC news, witnesses were woken up Thursday morning by odd noises that were echoing off hills in Terrace, British Columbia.</span></b></div>
<div style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px;">
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: white;">Several people called in to report the loud trumpet-like noises that were heard early yesterday morning. Three people were able to record the strange phenomena and one woman even posted the bizarre incident on <a href="http://beforeitsnews.com/r2/?url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FHi6LjKuNl4&feature=youtu.be" rel="nofollow" style="text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">Youtube</a>.</span></b></div>
<div style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px;">
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: white;">Terrace resident Kimberly Wookey filmed the strange sounds from her front porch and uploaded the <a href="http://beforeitsnews.com/r2/?url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FHi6LjKuNl4&feature=youtu.be" rel="nofollow" style="text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">video</a> online. Wookey said that she had heard similar sounds in June, but that these sounds were much more intense.</span></b></div>
<div style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px;">
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: white;">What are these odd noises? That is one question on a lot of Terrace’s citizen’s minds right now. This question may continue to go unanswered. Strange sounds are continuing to be heard all over the world. Officials are left baffled and are scratching their heads.</span></b></div>
<div style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px;">
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: white;">“At this point, nobody seems to know. The geologists say it’s not in the ground, the Air Force says it’s not in the air, the astronomers say it’s not from space, so we’re running out of options,” one official said.</span></b></div>
<div style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px;">
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: white;">Some people think that the weird noises are paranormal related, others say they are extraterrestrial based, and a few folks claim that they have a biblical meaning. Others believe that there is a more scientific explanation or it is a hoax. As of right now, no one seems to have a clear answer as to what these strange sounds are.</span></b></div>

<h2 style="font-size: 1.1em !important; line-height: 24px;">
Most UFO clips look dodgy and are covered by dialogue trying to <span style="background-color: black; color: white;">make it all look real. I’m still a skeptic, but now and again, someone with a really clever cellphone camera just happens to be in the right place at the right time? Who knows, because those who do know ain’t talking and those who don’t know don’t care and anyone else is wearing a very fast-moving tinfoil hat? Tom Dennen</span></h2>

<h3 style="font-size: 1.1em !important;">
<span style="background-color: black;"><span style="color: white;"><img src="http://cdn.uproxx.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/alien-hitler.jpg" style="border: none; font-size: 12px; max-width: 660px; padding: 5px;" /> A shocking report prepared by the Federal Space Agency (FKA/RKA) for Prime Minister Putin states that one of the United States most important space facilities, located in Fort Worth, Texas, was attacked this past week by ‘alien forces’ intent on destroying “Vimāna” technology transported their after its discovery by US Troops in Afghanistan, and as we had previously reported on in our December 21, 2010 report “World Leaders Flock To Afghanistan After Mysterious ‘Time Well’ Discovered”. Vimāna is a word with several meanings ranging from temple or palace to mythological flying palaces described in Sanskrit epics. </span></span></h3>

<h3 style="font-size: 1.1em !important;">
<span style="background-color: black;"><span style="color: white;"><span style="font-size: 12px;">According to this report, the National Aeronautics and Space Administration’s (NASA) Aviation Systems Division, located on a remote section of the giant Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport and responsible for engineering the software needed to control the airspace over North America, suffered a nearly half-hour long “sustained” attack resulting in the deaths of over 500 US Military and space contractors working on “Vimāna” technology.<a name='more'></a></span><img src="http://previous.presstv.ir/photo/20111117/hosseinsharifi20111117085449420.jpg" style="border: none; max-width: 660px; padding: 5px;" /> The most well-known alien invasion scenarios involve the aliens landing on Earth, destroying or abducting people, fighting and defeating Earth’s military forces, and then destroying Earth’s major cities. Usually, the bulk of the story follows the battles between the invaders and Earth’s armies, as in The War of the Worlds. However, not all alien invasion stories follow this plot. In some accounts, the alien invaders will covertly subvert human society using disguises, shapechanging, creating conflict in humanity and let humans destroy themselves, or human allies. In other depictions, the aliens score an overwhelming victory over humanity and the bulk of the story occurs after the aliens have taken over. Sometimes, the aliens do not come from space, but from another dimension, as is shown in the 2013 film Pacific Rim. And in some fiction, the invaders may not actually be aliens, but demonic creatures.</span></span></h3>

<div style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px;">
<strong style="background-color: black;"><span style="color: white;">Geophysicists say that the booms have been becoming more frequent around the world. Reports from the Soviet Union, Europe, Africa, China, Guatemala and that the first report in 1998 was from a deep mine on the Alaska/Yukon border. At that time, miners reported hearing sounds like rocks or sand falling down a metallic tube.</span></strong></div>

<strong style="background-color: black;"><span style="color: white;">HERE ARE INFRASOUND SIGNATURES THAT ARE COMING FROM INSIDE OUR PLANET THAT ARE INDICATING TO THEM THAT SOMETHING FUNDAMENTAL IS CHANGING IN THE INNER CORE TO THE OUTER CORE TO THE MANTLE TO THE CRUST. WHERE ALL THIS COULD LEAD – BECAUSE THE INTERIOR TO THE CRUST IS A DYNAMIC SITUATION – COULD WE BE AT A TIME WHERE THE INNER AND OUTER CORE TO THE MANTLE AND TO THE CRUST ARE GOING THROUGH SOME SORT OF AN EVOLUTIONARY CHANGE THAT COULD END UP CRACKING THE INDONESIAN AREA PLATE INTO A NEW PLATE? </span></strong></div>

New Evidence<div style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px;">
<span style="background-color: black;"><span style="color: white;">The data that once suggested the Sun is orbited by a distant dark companion now raises even more questions.</span></span></div>
<div style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px;">

<span style="background-color: black;"><span style="color: white;">Over the last 500 million years or so, life on Earth has been threatened on many occasions; the fossil record is littered with extinction events. What’s curious about these events is that they seem to occur with alarming regularity.</span></span></div>

<div>
<span style="background-color: black;"><span style="color: white;">Nemesis is a theoretical dwarf star thought to be a companion to our sun. The theory was postulated to explain a perceived cycle of mass extinctions in Earth’s history. Scientists speculated that such a star could affect the orbit of objects in the far outer solar system, sending them on a collision course with Earth.</span></span></div>

<span style="background-color: black;"><span style="color: white;">In the early 1980s, scientists noticed that </span></span><br />
<a name='more'></a><span style="background-color: black;"><span style="color: white;">extinctions on Earth seemed to fall in a cyclical pattern. Mass extinctions seem to occur more frequently in the last 27 million years. The long span of time caused them to turn to astronomical events for an explanation.</span></span></div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
<span style="background-color: black;"><span style="color: white;">In 1984, Richard Muller of the University of California Berkley suggested that a red dwarf star 1.5 light-years away could be the cause of the mass extinctions. Later theories have suggested that Nemesis could be a brown or white dwarf, or a low-mass star only a few times as massive as Jupiter. All would cast dim light, making them difficult to spot.</span></span></div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
<span style="background-color: black;"><span style="color: white;">Scientists speculated that Nemesis may affect the Oort cloud, which is made up of icy rocks surrounding the sun beyond the range of Pluto. Many of these chunks travel around the sun in a long-term, elliptical orbit. As they draw closer to the star, their ice begins to melt and stream behind them, making them recognizable as comets.</span></span></div>

<div>
</div>
<div>
<div>
<span style="background-color: black;"><span style="color: white;">If Nemesis traveled through the Oort cloud it could kick extra comets out of the sphere and send them hurling toward the inner solar system — and Earth. Impact rates would increase, and mass extinctions would be more common.</span></span></div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
<span style="background-color: black;"><span style="color: white;">The Kuiper Belt, a disk of debris that lies inside of the solar system, also has a well-defined outer edge that could be sheared off by a companion star. Researchers have found other systems where a companion star seems to have affected the shape of the debris disks.</span></span></div>
<div>
<span style="background-color: black;"><span style="color: white;"> </span></span></div>
<div>
<span style="background-color: black;"><span style="color: white;">The dwarf planet Sedna lends further credence in the eyes of some to the existence of a companion star for the sun. With an orbit of up to 12,000 years, the planet presents a puzzle to many. Scientists have suggested that a massive object such as a dim star could be responsible for keeping Sedna so far from the sun.</span></span></div>

<span style="background-color: black;"><span style="color: white;">NASA-funded lunar research has yielded evidence of water locked in mineral grains on the surface of the moon from an unknown source deep beneath the surface.</span></span></div>
<div style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px;">
<span style="background-color: black;"><span style="color: white;">Using data from NASA’s Moon Mineralogy Mapper (M3) instrument aboard the Indian Space Research Organization’s Chandrayaan-1 spacecraft, scientists remotely detected magmatic water, or water that originates from deep within the moon’s interior, on the surface of the moon. </span></span></div>

<div style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px;">
<span style="background-color: black;"><span style="color: white;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="background-color: black;"><span style="color: white;">The findings, published Aug. 25 in Nature Geoscience, represent the first detection of this form of water from lunar orbit. Earlier studies had shown the existence of magmatic water in lunar samples returned during the Apollo program.</span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: black;"><span style="color: white;">M3 imaged the lunar impact crater Bullialdus, which lies near the lunar equator. Scientists were interested in studying this area because they could better quantify the amount of water inside the rocks due to the crater’s location and the type of rocks it held. The central peak of the crater is made up of a type of rock that forms deep within the lunar crust and mantle when magma is trapped underground.</span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: black;"><span style="color: white;">“This rock, which normally resides deep beneath the surface, was excavated from the lunar depths by the impact that formed Bullialdus crater,” said Rachel Klima, a planetary geologist at the Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory (APL) in Laurel, Md.</span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: black;"><span style="color: white;">“Compared to its surroundings, we found that the </span></span><br />
<a name='more'></a><span style="background-color: black;"><span style="color: white;">central portion of this crater contains a significant amount of hydroxyl – a molecule consisting of one oxygen atom and one hydrogen atom — which is evidence that the rocks in this crater contain water that originated beneath the lunar surface,” Klima said.</span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: black;"><span style="color: white;">In 2009, M3 provided the first mineralogical map of the lunar surface and discovered water molecules in the polar regions of the moon. This water is thought to be a thin layer formed from solar wind hitting the moon’s surface. Bullialdus crater is in a region with an unfavorable environment for solar wind to produce significant amounts of water on the surface.</span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: black;"><span style="color: white;">“NASA missions like Lunar Prospector and the Lunar Crater Observation and Sensing Satellite and instruments like M3 have gathered crucial data that fundamentally changed our understanding of whether water exists on the surface of the moon,” said S. Pete Worden, center director at NASA’s Ames Research Center in Moffett Field, Calif. “Similarly, we hope that upcoming NASA missions such as the Lunar Atmosphere and Dust Environment Explorer, or LADEE, will change our understanding of the lunar sky.”</span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: black;"><span style="color: white;">The detection of internal water from orbit means scientists can begin to test some of the findings from sample studies in a broader context, including in regions that are far from where the Apollo sites are clustered on the near side of the moon. For many years, researchers believed that the rocks from the moon were bone-dry and any water detected in the Apollo samples had to be contamination from Earth.</span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: black;"><span style="color: white;">“Now that we have detected water that is likely from the interior of the moon, we can start to compare this water with other characteristics of the lunar surface,” said Klima. “This internal magmatic water also provides clues about the moon’s volcanic processes and internal composition, which helps us address questions about how the moon formed, and how magmatic processes changed as it cooled.”</span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: black;"><span style="color: white;">APL is a not-for-profit division of Johns Hopkins University. Joshua Cahill and David Lawrence of APL and Justin Hagerty of the U.S. Geological Survey’s Astrogeology Science Center in Flagstaff, Ariz., co-authored the paper. NASA’s Lunar Advanced Science and Engineering Program, the NASA Lunar Science Institute (NLSI) at Ames and the NASA Planetary Mission Data Analysis Program supported the research.
