The Second Annual Fortean Tinged Links Of 2009
Exactly a year ago today I completed the first `Fortean List’; a listing which included tags such as Phantom Clowns, Buddha Boy, Hairy Frog, Strange Holes and Mystery Wind. So, what does this years listing hold?
Find out right now - in reverse order of weirdness - The Heavy Stuff presents a dozen or so of the best Fortean Tinged Links Of 2009.
12th - Blue Spirals Of 2009 (and before) — I can hardly rule out the strangeness in the media (this link suggests that a World Teacher is at hand) that was generated by the Blue Spiral event one day before President Obama was in Norway for the Peace Prize. Then, the same event a day later in Russia. http://www.stuff.co.nz/oddstuff/3155846/NZ-sightings-of-spiral-UFO/ and http://blogs.discovermagazine.com/badastronomy/2009/12/12/another-russian-rocket-spiral-lights-up-the-sky/. But, did the same event happen 20 years earlier too? http://forgetomori.com/2009/ufos/the-norway-spiral/ As you also may know - a Pyramid was also seen in the Russian skies to add to the December madness.
11th - Image Of Jesus On Truck Window - http://www.azcentral.com/offbeat/articles/2009/11/04/20091104jesus-image-CR.html Hey, sure looks like Jesus to me. Guy isn’t even religious.
10th - Strangely Colored Animals — Like this one of a kind beautiful White Alligator http://www.telegraph.co.uk/earth/wildlife/4639072/White-alligator-is-one-of-rarest-in-world.html or perhaps an incredible Pink Dolphin is more to your taste http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/newstopics/howaboutthat/4927224/Pink-dolphin-appears-in-US-lake.html – nice short read on both links.
9th - Monk Leaves His Mark Of Prayer - http://j-walkblog.com/index.php?/weblog/posts/monk_leaves_his_mark/ A must see picture of the wood flooring beneath the exact place where a 70 year old monk has been praying for 20 years. Unforgettable picture.
8th - Giant Stingray Photo - Everyone likes animals larger than humans - I just didn’t know that Stingrays got to this hugeness http://forgetomori.com/2009/criptozoology/giant-stingray/
7th - Islamic Stigmata - Just a few months ago an Islamic child began having religious sayings appear on its body. Wow. Great picture. http://monkeywah.typepad.com/paranormalia/2009/10/islamic-stigmata.html
6th - The DNA Mystery: Scientists Stumped By “Telepathic” Abilities - http://www.dailygalaxy.com/my_weblog/2009/09/the-dna-mystery-scientists-baffled-by-telepathic-abilities.html Impossible events, like these by DNA, are the very basis of Fortean events.
5th. (In a Forteanlike manner - my font color has changed.) Pig Born With The Face Of A Monkey - http://www.thelondonpaper.com/thelondonpaper/weird/odd-news/pig-born-with-the-face-of-a-monkey Pretty self-explanatory title - amazing picture however.
4th - Is This The Arizona Thunderbird Civil War Picture? — One of the biggest Fortean stories of 2008 was the LACK of this picture — is this it? http://www.burlingtonnews.net/thunderbird.html
3rd - Can cancer cures come from healing hands?- Ok, (I’ve done nothing to change the font color) so, you take three sets of mice and inject some with cancer. You then recruit volunteers who are going to project positive vibes to the mice with cancer. What happens then? You MUST read this to believe it. http://go.squidoo.com/?id=1120X507259&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.examiner.com%2Fx-27763-Skepticism-Examiner~y2009m10d28-Can-cancer-cures-come-from-healing-hands
2nd - Dog Falls Out Of The Sky In Davenport Iowa - http://qctimes.com/news/local/article_ba848c4a-e867-11de-89a7-001cc4c002e0.html Sometimes knowing no preview is better.
1st - `Scanning Dead Salmon in fMRI Machine Highlights Risk of Red Herrings’ — http://www.wired.com/wiredscience/2009/09/fmrisalmon/ Ok, so, lets say you put a DEAD salmon onto an MRI machine, and then ask some volunteers to think about different pictures —– what IF this was the result ——- “‘A dead salmon perceiving humans can tell their emotional state.’” It’s a Fortean World indeed.
