| Posted: 07 Sep 2011 03:10 PM PDT  I recently received the following correspondence from a reader in Minnesota. We have written back and forth a few times since...I have added more of his information to the original email: Hi Lon, I have been reading your blog for a few months especially after I came across the experiences of David Eckhart and his family. To some people these incidents may be mere imagination - but my experiences are just as strange and frightening. To begin, I am in my mid 60's and these experiences took place over a period of 15 years starting when I began my law practice in 1972. I had lived in Ontario, Canada all my life but eventually moved to the United States and became a citizen. My life too this point had been fairly uneventful and I was raised by wonderful parents. I was naive to the supernatural and considered it a farce. I was very conservative in my ideals including my commitment to my church and other civic organizations. One afternoon while working in my office my secretary paged me to say that a gentleman was waiting and wanted to talk to me. He didn't have an appointment but said that he needed to see me immediately. I agreed and told her to let him in. The man was very well dressed in a suit and walked directly to the chair in front of my desk and sat down. He looked at me in a strange manner almost like he wasn't sure if he should be there. I stood when he entered the office but he did not reciprocate when I reached to shake his hand. I sat back down and asked how I could help him. He looked away then slowly back towards me, leaned forward and said "I was told to tell you something." "OK - by whom?" I asked. He started a story that was simply unbelievable - but I knew he was telling me the truth. Why? I have no idea - but I just knew that his words were meant for me and that I'd better follow through with the instructions. After a few minutes, the man (I never got a name from him) told me he had to leave, turned around and walked out of the office. I sat there dumfounded and worried - was he really telling me the truth? When I got home I tried to relax before I made my next decision. I was frightened by this time and dreaded making that telephone call. I sat in my recliner and picked up the telephone and dialed. The telephone on the other end rang for two minutes without an answer - there was no answering machine - it just continued to ring. They weren't home and it was too late for them to be out. I called their neighbor to check on them. The car was in the driveway and there was no answer at the door. The neighbor contacted the police who arrived and entered the house. There was uneaten food on the table and the television in the dining room was on. They were gone - my parents were abducted! The mystery man in my office had told me that he was approached earlier that day by a young woman who had an odd manner of speech and looked out of place because she wore a strange brown hooded poncho. He had been eating in a local diner when this woman simply walked over to his booth and sat down across from him. She looked into his eyes and he started to feel as if he was drugged. She told him where to find me and to give me these instructions. I was to stay home tonight and to call my parents. They will not answer - they are with us. We need to talk to you - it is important that you do as you have been instructed. I was utterly scared to the roots. What was going to happen to my parents and what was going to happen tonight? I prepared for the evening in the best way I knew - just sit and watch television until something happened. It didn't take long. About an hour after I had started to watch television the power went out - including the neighborhood and, from what I could gather, much of the city. I looked out the window - it was very dark. I walked over to my recliner and started to sit down when I heard a clicking sound coming from the hallway. I looked in the direction of the hallway and noticed something moving towards me. It had a metallic look to it but also seemed to be cloaked and almost invisible. As I stared at this form it began to speak to me in English but very deliberate. "Please be calm and listen. You are safe - your parents are safe. It had to be done - there is no explanation that you could understand." I asked when will my parents return. The answer was "They will return when ready" - then the form backed up and disappeared. Ready for what? That was in March 1972. I received 6 more visits by similar but different beings and with the same message - the last visit was in 1987 just before Christmas. My parents have never returned. There was an attempt by the authorities to search for them but there was no evidence available and the case quickly went cold. I did eventually get married and helped raise a son. My wife and I are very happy. She knows about my ordeal and, like I, wonders if they will return one day. Over the years, I have been in contact with others who have had the same or very similar experiences. Many of these people have not told their stories. I felt it was time to tell mine. I forward this summary at your discretion. I enjoy your daily newsletters immensely. Best to you - M.M.  | ||
| Just the Facts? Roan Mountain Creature Encounter, EU Says Eat Bugs and Moose in a Tree Posted: 07 Sep 2011 12:54 PM PDT  Roan Mountain Creature Encounter Hi Lon, I was reading the Centaurs in North America and about the strange sighting in Michigan in 2006 and was reminded of a sighting my sister frantically called me up and told me about on April 17, 2010. This is her description... My sister was driving her ex and his son back home from a birthday dinner at a favorite restaurant on April 17, 2010 and was coming through Roan Mountain, Tennessee along a two lane stretch of road when ahead of them they saw what appeared to look like a LARGE WHITE BALL that had moved out onto the highway directly from a CEMETERY above. She said that it began coming towards them as if it were trying to collide with the vehicle and the closer they got to this thing they had a better look at it. She described it as appearing to be HALF ANIMAL, REPTILE, HALF HUMAN with human limbs. It had two arms and two legs and was crawling on its belly. She hoped that the creature would exit the highway and into the woods to prevent getting hit but it just continued moving directly at them and the vehicle. She slammed on her brakes to avoid hitting it and at that point the creature went from crawling to SPINNING "like a TORNADO" right before it made contact with the front of the vehicle. Then she said it went beneath the radiator and vanished. She, her ex and his son were all quite shaken and terrified and said that whatever the creature was it wasn't anything from this world. She continued describing it as having two human arms and legs, mid body alligator or reptile and WHITE as SNOW. It crawled on its stomach like a reptile. Her ex stated that during the encounter it felt like time had stood still. Everything just slowed down. All three of them agreed that they had a very eerie feeling of something very EVIL present before they encountered this thing. Bet ********** EU says 'eat bugs' This was the summer of insects in the food world. Dana Goodyear wrote a piece on entomophagy -- insect eating -- in the New Yorker, Daniella Martin wrote one here on HuffPost Food and Angelina Jolie said her children eat crickets "like Doritos." So far, the activity has been mostly rhetorical -- people have been giving lip service to the ecological benefits of eating insects, but not that many people have actually been converted. But now, the European Commission is putting money where all these foodie mouths are. It is offering a massive £2.65 million ($4.32 million) prize to the group that comes up with the best idea for developing insects as a popular food. The Commission is counting on cattle and other large animals being an increasingly untenable source of protein in decades to come, and hopes that some research group will be able to devise ways to convince people to eat insects despite the inherent "yuck" value. The EC is also helping support a project by the UK Food Standards agency to investigate the nutritional value of insects. Insect meat is much lower in fat, and higher in calcium, than beef or pork. But the UK study is looking especially hard at any risks presented by eating insects. If you want to taste insects yourself before they become the default meat for recipes of the future, you have a many options. You can go to Oaxaca, Mexico where crickets and grasshoppers have long been a staple on taco menus. You can visit a state fare, where maggot sandwiches are an up-and-coming delicacy. Or you can stop buy the grocery store and pick up a package of Nathan's frankfurters -- a recent lawsuit alleges that insects are an increasingly standard ingredient in hot dogs. - HP **********   A moose in a tree in Sweden (translation) - The elk were out for evening walk in a residential area in Särö. Then it got stuck in an apple tree. Probably, she ate apples and become a little drunk. She saw the red-eyed, says neighbor Per Johansson. It was at ten o'clock on Tuesday evening that the elk was discovered in a trädklyka on a plot at the Old Church Road. First came a hunter to assess the situation. But both he and we thought we would try to release the elk, says Per Johansson, whose son documented the events with his camera. The neighbors tried to help the moose by sawing off branches. Then came the emergency services there. We had to bend down the tree with a crane, said Lars Jostelius the rescue command center. Once down on the ground again fell moose together, exhausted. Hopefully it will survive. She lifted her head. The hunter did not shoot it. It was a good hunter, says Johansson. - gp.se Thanks to Alexander for the heads up! **********  UFO over Dudley, West Midlands Last night my grandson was here with me and at 9.10 pm , a sphere came over at approximately 1000 feet. It came from the South going North. It must of been 16 feet wide and traveling fast. It was a very light orange in color. I have seen the same UFO earlier this year when I was at the old house. I hit it with a green laser and was quite astonished. As the green bean hit the sphere, it flaired outwards and I heard a crackling noise and was quite astonished. Hayden, my grandson was in the living room and I shouted to him to come outside quickly. He also saw the sphere. We followed it across the limited space we have in the garden. I feel it was doing at least 500 miles per hour. I had no time to capture it on camera. This is the second time I have seen this object. NOTE: This sighting has been submitted to World UFO Photos. The above image is a rendering. This is another sighting by Mike Bathurst of the United Kingdom. Mike is a researcher and has discovered many strange features on Mars and the Moon. Mike has been a researcher for World UFO Photos. - Ken Pfeifer - New Jersey State Section Director MUFON - World UFO Photos  | ||
| Case Updates / Evidence - Spirit Rescue International Posted: 07 Sep 2011 11:54 AM PDT  EVP Release - Spirit Rescue International Neath Investigation - EVP This EVP was collected by the team during the first Neath, Wales cafe on-site investigation. Some of the team on Skype actually heard the voice through the computer...because of that, I'm not going to classify it as a disembodied voice or audible voice phenomenon (AVP) just yet, though there does seem to be a bit of an echo. Other voices have been recorded during the two on-site sessions...as well as video anomalies. The UK team is scheduled to be on-site again on Saturday evening. As well, we are conducting another investigation in Grayson County, Texas. A remote viewing session was conducted this past week and the SRI investigators and associates will be on-site this coming weekend. This case involves continued non-terrestrial encounters by the client and his family.  These case can be followed at Spirit Rescue International Case Logs - Astral Perceptions.

| State Department Documents Confirm Feds Believed in the Yeti Posted: 07 Sep 2011 07:32 PM PDT  Long written off as a myth—it was never caught or photographed—the documents provided by the National Archives show that officials in the State Department, Foreign Service, and U.S. Embassy in Kathmandu, Nepal, not only believed in "Yeti," but endorsed rules for American expeditions to follow when hunting the toothy monster down. "There are, at present, three regulations applicable only to expeditions searching for the Yeti in Nepal. These regulations are to be observed," said a memo from the embassy written on State Department letterhead. The first rule required that expeditions buy a permit. The second demanded that the beast be photographed or taken alive. "It must not be killed or shot at except in an emergency arising out of self defense," wrote Embassy Counselor Ernest Fisk on November 30, 1959. And third, any news proving the existence of the Abominable Snowman must be cleared through the Nepalese government which probably wanted to take credit for the discovery.
Archivist Mark Murphy said he couldn't believe his eyes when he discovered the long-ignored papers written at the end of the Eisenhower administration. "I thought I was seeing things," he said. "These documents show that finding the Yeti was a big deal in the 1950s. It goes to show the government was taking this seriously." How seriously? One foreign service dispatch from the Embassy of New Delhi dated April 16, 1959 describes the many American expeditions involved in mountaineering and monster hunting in Nepal. [Read about other uncovered political archives.] "American resources in the last two years have been concentrated on efforts to capture the abominable snowman," the record reads. Tom Slick, a millionaire with a specialized interest in cryptozoology paid for three separate expeditions in Nepal to find the snow beast, immortalized in the 1964 Christmas classic Rudolf the Red-Nosed Reindeer. Slick never found it and he went onto pursue bigfoot in the Pacific Northwest. - By Paul Bedard, Lauren Fox - usnews Spirit Rescue International™ Providing no-cost professional spiritual help, personal support and guidance Take the first step towards genuine peace of mind  The Spirit Rescue International™ Haunted Help Forum *Join Our Group On Facebook*  Join Eric Altman and Lon Strickler each Sunday at 8 PM ET as we go Beyond the Edge!
