The following are previous humanoid / cryptid encounter reports received by various agencies worldwide:

THE 'MANIMAL'

Location/Date: Rosario de la Frontera, Argentina - February 26 2003 - 10:00 pm

Alerted by the sounds of his barking dogs, 62-year old Patricio Saldaño, armed with a flashlight went out to investigate. He noticed that the dogs were furiously running back & forth from one area of the yard to the other. He then saw standing only about 10 meters from him a huge hairy figure standing on two legs. It resembled a giant ape, which stared at the witness with large bright red eyes. The creature was silent and moved its huge arms in an apparent attempt to scare the dogs away, which curiously did not attack. The creature had long sharp claws that reflected the light in the darkness. His wife and two young children also saw the bizarre creature, which disappeared into the darkness. Several days earlier a dead calf had been found dead and partially eaten.

NOTE: For a number of years, this hairy humanoid has been reported on numerous occasions in the same general area...though the size of the creature in this particular report seems to be larger than the others, thus the moniker 'The Manimal'. This area has also experienced several cattle mutilations and UFO sightings during the same period...Lon

ABDUCTION RECALL

Location/Date: Frederick Maryland - Summer 1973 - 2:00 am

Richard Kilburn was returning home along a remote road when he suddenly experienced a memory lapse. He only had fragmentary memories of an event. Under hypnosis he recalled seeing two lights descend from the sky and land nearby, his vehicle suddenly veered off the road and stopped. He got out of the vehicle and heard a sound, he then saw four or five humanoids coming over a nearby fence and approach him. The beings were very short and thin, hairless with large heads shaped like inverted teardrops, large black walnut shaped eyes, small noses, slit mouths, no ears and white putty like skin. They had long tube like fingers and wore black tight fitting suits and gloves and were clumsy when they moved.

One that seemed to be the leader gave directions by gestures while another being began digging a hole. The witness was seized by a clamp like device and taken to a luminous white egg shaped craft sitting on a platform of girders and making a humming sound. He was escorted up a tube like ramp into the object and entered a luminous white domed room and next found himself on a table wearing only a diaper like cloth. A device came down from the ceiling and a needle like device ran along his back. He was then given an extensive physical examination by several of the beings, with different devices.

He later lost consciousness and found himself driving home in his vehicle.

A BEAUTIFUL EXTRATERRESTRIAL

Location/Date: Honolulu, Hawaii - Spring 1968 - 5:00 am

Robert D. Miles, who was living aboard a forty seven foot trimaran, was docked at Honolulu's Alawi Yacht Harbor. On that early morning he had gotten up early and made some coffee and was lying on his bunk worrying about current events in his life. Suddenly he experienced a dazzling array of shimmering light followed by an intense tingling of energy, which filled the entire stateroom and engulfed him. His entire body began to vibrate as a beautiful woman materialized in the walkway right next to his bed. His first reaction was believing that he was dreaming or hallucinating. But the woman spoke to him and took his hand. In a matter of moments he came to understand that the woman was real and much more alive than him. The energy aura that she emanated made his entire being vibrate at a level that could only be described as ecstasy. He asked, "Why have you come to visit me?" She replied, "Myself and others like me are friends, and we want you to come to a very important briefing." Moments after agreeing to go with her, an unparalleled series of events occurred.

First he was teleported to New York City. He then boarded a saucer-like spacecraft and was transported to an extraterrestrial location for the briefing. The extraterrestrials orchestrated the briefing to give him and about fifty other guests a glimpse of Earth's history. They also showed them a dramatic and vivid view of humankind's potential destiny. After the briefing, he was asked to undertake a mission. He agreed to publish a story about his experience and to place an ad in a major newspaper, saying simply, if you have the spirit of adventure and are willing to work, come sail with us.

Upon returning to the sailboat he realized that only 33 minutes had passed. However from his personal perspective, it seemed like many unhurried hours had been spent with these incredible beings. To this day he remains convinced that the series of events were real and not a dream or delusion.

...WHILE WALKING TO WORK

Location/Date: Birmingham, UK - March 30 1988 - 5:25 am

Two women (mother & daughter) were walking to work at a local mill and had taken a shortcut down some nearby alleys when they suddenly heard a distant humming sound, unusual for that time of day. Suddenly a light shone down on them from above. They both stopped to see a light over them getting larger and larger as it approached. They both became dizzy and disoriented. Their next recollection was arriving late for work and still very dizzy.

Later under hypnosis one of the women remembered moving towards a light and then finding themselves in a white room surrounded by windows and lying naked on a table with a cloth over her legs. The other woman was in a table next to her. Several short thin humanoids now appeared, with tiny ears, huge black eyes and have three very long fingers, and they are not wearing any clothing and have white skin.

At one point the little humanoids inserted a long glass tube into the witness navel. They also pull her hair. Later they place a cup shaped device on her head. She is then taken to a wall where a large screen appears. One of the short humanoids pushes some buttons and various geometric symbols appear on the screen, later scenes of war and destruction appear.

At this point the witness notices other beings in the room. These are described as very tall, and human like with long blond hair, blue eyes and wearing a silver suit with a blue "badge" on the left side of the chest area. The badge is a circle with a triangle next to it and two zigzag lines next to the triangle. Her next memory is of finding herself back in the alley along with her daughter who looked dazed. Her daughter also recalled a similar scenario under hypnosis and also remembered seeing her mother standing next to a tall beautiful blond woman in a silver suit and blue badge.

Man Found Dead Four Years After Bedtime

au.news.yahoo - Relatives followed the instructions of a Dutch man who asked not to be disturbed when he went to his bedroom: they left him alone and his body was found in bed four years later, police say.

The man, 50 at the time of his death, lived with four siblings aged between 44 and 71 in the northern village of Minnertsga.

"He was used to being obeyed and very quick to anger," police spokesman Wouter De Vries said.

"Four years ago he told his brothers and sisters he didn't want to be disturbed and went to his bedroom."

Though they frequently passed by the bedroom door, no one dared to open it and look in, Mr de Vries said.

The body was only discovered when the landlords decided some work needed to be done in the room.

"A decomposing body produces a very strong smell, and it's really remarkable that his brothers and sisters don't seem to have noticed anything," the police spokesman said.

NOTE: he must have been one grouchy SOB. This story has a rotten smell to it (bad humor acknowledged)...Lon

Giant Green Algae Blob Threatening Chinese Coastline

news24 - A massive floating expanse of green algae is heading toward China's east coast, potentially threatening wildlife and the region's tourist industry, state media reported on Tuesday.

The algae bloom covered 200km² and was about 13km offshore and floating towards the coastal city of Jiaonan in Shandong province, Xinhua news agency said.

The local branch of the State Oceanic Administration, which monitors marine conditions, is sending boats in a bid to clear the algae, it said.

Algae blooms are typically caused by pollution in China and suck up huge amounts of oxygen needed by marine wildlife to survive and leave a foul stench when they wash up on beaches, the report added.

In August 2008, a large offshore algae bloom threatened the sailing competition of the Olympic Games when it engulfed waters surrounding the event's venue in the eastern China city of Qingdao, near Jiaonan.

Up to 10 000 soldiers and volunteers were enlisted to clean up more than a million tonnes of the foul-smelling algae as they raced to clear the waters in time for the Olympics.

According to a 2008 State Oceanic Administration report, raw sewage and pollution from agricultural run-off has polluted 83% of China's coastal waters, leading to algae pollution and other problems.

In 2008, China's coastal waters witnessed 68 red tides - another type of algae bloom - covering 13 700km², an increase of more than 2 100km² over 2007, the report said.

TILT: The Illness Afflicting Workers Exposed to BP's Oil Disaster?

southernstudies - Workers cleaning up the BP oil disaster in the Gulf of Mexico have reported suffering from flu-like symptoms that may be the consequence of exposure to chemicals in the oil as well as the petroleum-derived solvent being used to disperse the spill.

The illness -- marked by headaches, fatigue, upset stomach, and problems with memory and concentration -- has been dubbed toxicant-induced loss of tolerance, or TILT. People suffering from TILT lose the ability to tolerate exposures to household chemical products, medication or even food, Dr. Claudia Miller of the University of Texas Health Science Center told WOAI TV:

"Things like diesel fuel, exposure to fragrances, cleaning agents that never bothered them before suddenly bother them," adds Dr. Miller.

Miller first described TILT in 1996, but it remains a controversial diagnosis among the medical community. The syndrome is also known as multiple chemical sensitivity and idiopathic environmental intolerance. The National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences, a division of the National Institutes of Health, has defined the illness as a "chronic, recurring disease caused by a person's inability to tolerate an environmental chemical or class of foreign chemicals."

Regardless of whether the illness being reported in Gulf cleanup workers and residents ends up being confirmed as TILT, the fact remains that the chemicals people are being exposed to in the oil and dispersants are known to have health impacts including eye, skin and respiratory irritation, as well as headaches, dizziness, weakness, nausea and confusion. An analysis of EPA air testing data has found levels of these chemicals in coastal communities exceeding safety standards.

As of this week, the Louisiana Department of Health has documented 109 reports of illnesses among residents exposed to the spill, with 74 of those complaints coming from cleanup workers, according to ProPublica. In Alabama, another 19 cases of illness have been reported among people exposed to chemicals in the spill.

As Facing South reported, the Louisiana Environmental Action Network has been distributing safety equipment including respirators to cleanup workers -- but some workers have been threatened with firing if they wear them, apparently because of BP's liability worries.

North Korea Seeks $75 Trillion in Compensation

abc.net.abc - Cash-strapped North Korea has demanded the United States pay almost $US65 trillion ($75 trillion) in compensation for six decades of hostility.

The official North Korean news agency, KCNA, says the cost of the damage done by the US since the peninsula was divided in 1945 is estimated at $US64.96 trillion.

The compensation call comes on the eve of the 60th anniversary of the start of the 1950-1953 Korean War.

KCNA said the figure includes $US26.1 trillion arising from US "atrocities" which left more than 5 million North Koreans dead, wounded, kidnapped or missing.

The agency also claims 60 years of US sanctions have caused a loss of $US13.7 trillion by 2005, while property losses were estimated at $US16.7 trillion.

The agency said North Koreans have "the justifiable right" to receive the compensation for their blood.

It said the committee's calculation did not include the damage North Korea had suffered from sanctions after its first nuclear test in 2006.

NOTE: yeah, I realized this is somewhat off topic but Kim Jong Il is always good for a laugh...Lon

Flashing UFO Witnessed Over Flushing, New York

Posted: 25 Jun 2010 07:33 AM PDT

Last evening, I was contacted by a reader in Flushing, NY who later sent the following report to MUFON. Please note, the northeast U.S. experienced some very nasty storms from Maryland to Rhode Island on Thursday. We have been told that a MUFON field investigator will be assigned the case today:

MUFON Case Management System: I happened to glance outside and noted how grey the skies were tonight. We had an intense rainstorm in the general (golf sized hailstones out in Long Island, trees torn up and an unusual amount of heat & humidity before the rain hit). I notice an odd light in the skies. At first I thought it was a plane but it was stationary. I then assumed it was a helicopter but something was nagging. I got my binoculars and took a peek. It was definitely not a plane because jets were passing by all night (I'm 30 min from La Guardia) and this object was just hovering in place. On the left side I saw the tip was blue while the rest was an off-white/yellowish shade. Then colors changed to white and began to flicker in an odd pattern. after a few minutes I noticed a definite pattern.

three short flashes
three long flashes
three long flashes
a long flash and a short dash

Unnerved, I called over my mother who has better eyesight, 20/20 in fact to view. After a few moments she gasped and gave me the binoculars. The object stopped flashing its pattern and return to its whitish-yellowish color with blue on its left side. It then got brighter then it abruptly blinked out.

I just spent an hour scouring the web for any astronomical reports of predicted sightings to no avail.

1 - I was in the living room watching TV
2 - I happened to glance outside to stare at my now-vacant apartment that belonged to my godparents (one died and the other moved back to cuba). I looked to the sky
3 - A star but the clouds were too cloudy. Then i thought it was an airplane but it wasn't moving. THEN i thought it was a helicopter but it was too far and too high to be a copter
4 - it simply hovered. it was vaguely teardrop with a slight bump in the middle like saturn or a typical looking saucer with a dome. the colors were blue on the left and yellowish-white the rest. it then to flicker in an odd pattern
5- For some reason after the flashing pattern I started feeling anxious, nervous, restless and for some reason very worried
6 - it just blinked out

NOTE: the witness told me that the flashes spelled "SOON" in Morse Code...Lon
