Two very similar UFO sightings have been reported in the UK.  The first, in Colne, was described as an “orange light” with no noise and was witnessed on Saturday 8th August.  You can watch a video and read eye witness comments here.

The second sighting was over Ipswitch and was also described as an “orange light”.  One witness claims to have seen the UFO initially six weeks ago and has seen it several times since then.  More details on the Evening Star website.

I’ve put an online test of PK on the interactive section of the website.  Since it’s a PK test (using your mind to influence matter), the actual testing takes place offline but you can record your results on the website.  When we have a few users taking part I’ll put up some average scores, best scores etc.

Test your psychic PK ability online now!



UFO Footage in Columbia - real or hoax?

Just came across this on You Tube - it’s an amateur video of a UFO seen in Columbia:

I’d love to believe it but it looks almost TOO good!  I’m used to UFO footage being fuzzy and unconvincing  :)

A UFO has been sighted by a group of teachers in Argentina.  Described as an “orange half-moon”, the object was said to be either hovering slightly above ground level or sitting on the ground.

UFO on BBC webcam?

Posted in Sightings on August 7th, 2009 by Carol – Be the first to comment

An unidentified flying object was captured on a BBC webcam during a live news broadcast.  The video, shown here, is accompied by “Is it a bird? Is it a plane? An unidentified flying object is spotted by a BBC Look North webcam.”.

Think they might have been right the first time, as it does look like a bird to me!  Any thoughts?



Woman claims she can make people urinate themselves with the power of her mind

Posted in Psychology - Parapsychology on August 5th, 2009 by Carol – Be the first to comment

I’ve just been writing this article on Hubpages about the James Randi $1million challenge and now I’m having a look through past applications on the JREF website and came across this one.  The applicant claims she can make people urinate themselves using only the power of her mind, so the preliminary test was set up with her challenge to be to make Jeff Wagg (general manager of JREF) urinate himself.  Alas, the preliminary test was a failure, but you can still watch the YouTube video:

There are some AMAZING claims on the website - it’s well worth a read.  Unfortunately many either can’t agree on a test protocol so there isn’t a preliminary test which is a shame - I’d love to see some of these claims in action!



MOD refuses to investigate UFO sighting

Posted in Sightings on August 5th, 2009 by Carol – Be the first to comment

On 22nd July, retired school teacher John Powell photographed an RAF Hercules coming in to land.  The plane itself was not the target of his photograph though, rather it was the metallic grey object apparently following it.

The Ministry of Defence has stated that it will NOT investigate the UFO sighting, insisting that air space has “not been comprised”.

Under the Freedom of Information Act, we can now request copies of official documentation regarding any UFO sighting, so it will be interesting to see exactly why this one isn’t going to be investigated!

The LONG overdue Vol 24.1 of the European Journal of Parapsychology has finally arrived! Lots of interesting papers to read by the looks of it, from dream precognition to professional medium testing. I’ll write up my highlights as soon as I’ve had the chance to get through it :)
