New Glyphs Captured In Kazakhstan

This picture is making the rounds of the Internet after the photo was taken last week in Kazakhstan. The glyph shows what appears to be a human in between two structures. The local government is even reporting on this. The area is a UFO hot spot. Check out the photo below. What do you think?

Infant Found Alive Before Burial

A man, Jose Alvarenga, that thought his infant son had died went to say one final good-bye to the infant, but when he opened the coffin at that time, he found his child was indeed not dead as doctor’s believed when he was born. He was alived and immediately rushed to an oxygen chamber. The infant weighing in at 17.6 ounces at birth apparently had a heart beat so slow at birth that doctor’s believed the infant had been born dead. A miracle to be sure!

Tree Growing Inside Man

article-1169861-0471954c000005dc-892_224x222.jpgYes, this one is going to sound absolutely crazy, and I thought it was the moment I heard it, but a man in Russian had been coughing up blood and complaining of chest pains. Not something your average twenty-eight year old experiences now, right? Doctors went in, and they made a shocking discovery.

A five-centimeter long fir tree was growing in his lung. If it hadn’t been found when it was, the tree could have continued to grow inside the man and lead to his death. Doctors and the man originally thought he had cancer, but the tree inside him was the source of his problems.

Apparently the man had swallowed a seed that began to grow the tree. All is well now. The tree was removed. What do you think of this?

Woman Develops Invisible Third Arm

sriimg20090401_10522254_0.jpgThis might sound like one of those impossible stories, but it is true, and it appears entirely possible. A woman in Switzerland, sixty-four, had a stroke, and within a few days she developed a third arm that she can feel and use to some extent. She can’t pick up objects with the arm, but if she has to scratch herself she can do that.

Doctors say the women is suffering from SPL or Supernumerary Phantom Limb. The doctor’s and scientists that investigated this case say it is rare, but it does happen. There are currently only nine case of SPL known, and this is one of them. What do you think? Phantom limbs exist?

Inhale Your Chocolate

whiff_1382442c.jpg

This is the perfect story for all you chocolate lovers on Easter Sunday. A new device has been created by scientists at Harvard University that will let you have all the chocolate you want without all the calories or the stomachaches. The device will let you inhale your chocolate via an inhaler called The Le Whiff.

The plan in the future to create more inhalers for different foods, including a future where you can eat a three course meal all by inhaler. All the food without all the weight gain. Sounds all a bit like The Jetsons to me, but it looks like this is not too far off now.

What do you think? Crazy or not? Would you want to inhale your dinner?

Drunk Man Survives Fall Unhurt

absolut_vodka_family_.jpg

Yes, when you’re drunk, you tend to do some really stupid things. This one Russian man happened to do the same thing twice. He jumped out of a five story kitchen window in his home, and then he did it again just because his wife wouldn’t shut up about him doing it the first time. The amazing thing is he was left virtually unhurt from both falls. He had drank three bottles of Vodka that day, so it is believed the alcohol saved him from injury in the fall.

This is something I believe can happen. As a teenager, I saw something quite similar happen to a man that lived in my apartment building at the time. No, he didn’t fall twice, but one drunken night, he walked up to the third floor balcony, and he proceeded to fall to the ground below. Some say he was half sleepwalking at the time it happened, but other than a few bruises and scratches he was unhurt. What do you think? Could the alcohol in the man’s body saved him?

A True Superboy

This is something you might see in a movie. In fact, we have seen this in a movie, but this little boy is not from far away planet gaining his strength from our sun. One little boy, Liam Hoekstra, has a rare genetic disorder that has given him super strength.

At just the tender age of three, he can move furniture, and he even lift five found weights. He was recently seen on CBS on The Early Show. Those around the little boy were worried the disorder might prove hard on his heart, but so far things look good there.

Check out video of this amazing little boy below. What do you think?

Picture: Blythe’s Intaglios

It always fascinates me when things in Arizona come up in the news. The Phoenix Lights get the most attention, but there is a little something I learned about this morning, and it is in my own backyard once again. In Blythe, California, which is on the California - Arizona border, there is a set of Geoglyphs in the desert floor. These are pictured below.

They are quite similar to such Geoglyphs found in other parts of the world, including in Peru. I don’t know how many times I’ve driven through Blythe going back and forth between California and Arizona. I never even knew these existed, which is not surprising because it is said they are really not infamous like other such Geoglyphs. Check out the picture below. What do you think?

More Cow Mutilations In Colorado

e8ja9ntbygmeqlnkgjc3ra15373.jpgA few weeks ago, I wrote about one rancher’s story about the death of his cow. He truly believed that his cow was kidnapped by aliens and then killed. Mike Duran said her reproductive organs had been taken out. Now another Southern Colorado rancher has made a similar discovery with two more cows found dead on the ranch of Jim Garren.

This time it was a mother and her calf. It was clear that the calf was born hours before its mother was killed. There were no signs of obvious struggle with the mother or its newborn calf, which has made all of this very perplexing to the rancher and those investigating the deaths.

It only seems to be something on the increase in the Southern Colorado area, and there is just no telling what will happen next. What do you think?

The Hand Of God In The Skies?

Published by Regina Avalos under Pictures, Strange Edit This

Sightings of miracles, statues crying, things appearing on walls are nothing new, but this is one I haven’t seen before. A San Diego based man is claiming that these pictures he took in Baja, Mexico on February 5th of this year look to be the hand of God. If you look closely in the pictures, you can see an arm and an outstretched hand.

These pictures were taken that afternoon. I am usually skeptical with things like this. However, if you do look at the pictures, you do something there. Hand of God might be stretching it a bit, but I will let you be your own judge here. Read the man’s account, and see some of the pictures he took below.

At approximately 3:00 p.m. the next day, she and I went for a walk on the beach and around the grounds and swimming pool.  This was her first trip down to the beach and swimming pool area.  We took her Kodak Z812 IS point and shoot digital camera. After spending some time on the beach, we climbed up the stairs from the beach and began walking south along the cliffs (which are approximately 20-25 feet above the water level) to the swimming pool. As we were walking, she said: “Hey look, there’s a prism without a rainbow.”  I looked up and saw the patch of sky depicted in the center of photo.
