The screwfly solution

After reading the excellent article on Technoccult on the rise of violent incidents for no reason, including road rage, I started thinking what could have caused this. The obvious case on fast-paced life is not the only candidate.
case 1: Being the animals that we are, reduced space means there are contenders in our private area or around it, and the reptile in us lashes out in defence.
case 2: The Earth is defending itself, much like the diseases it uses from time to time, according to some fringe epidimiologists. How it works is, of course, pure speculation.
case 3: (the scariest and the most interesting) We are ushered in a time of tension, war and mayhem by some alien race looking for some real-estate. Why fight the insects one at a time when you can make them kill each other?

UFOs collide with fighter jet?

More Structures on the Moon?

Careful study of public domain Lunar images, led researcher Allan Sturm to discover structures resembling hexagon, neatly arranged pods and some resemblance of a half-buried machine...
Maybe the Moon still has surprises left for us, or at least it still has some bucks left in exploiting it.
The future will tell, if we ever get to return up there...

Arthur Clarke is dead..

Arthur Clarke died 90 years old, full of experience and success, and almost a household name.
The dreamer who first thought about communication satellites and trips to the moon, was in recent decades involved with an inner universe, that of the oceans and sea diving..
And although he never became the billionaire he could be, had he patented his ideas, I am sure he had very little regret about his life, since he always wanted to be remembered as a writer. His wishes fulfilled...

Invisible

Another report about a UFO not seen by the naked eye, only to appear later in photographs.
The locale of this, Tower Bridge over Thames in the heart of London made me think: How many invisible crafts fly over us, how many invisible beings walk among us and are briefly made visible by a fluctuation of the god-knows-what field or pure interdimensional coincidence?
Are we indeed living in a world defined by our brains, which conveniently shut out all "out of norm" stimuli? Is this why children are reputed to see "more"?
Is the m-theory correct? Is our universe spearheaded by a vertical universe, connecting us with at least 9 others?
I hope H.P. Lovecraft was partially wrong, but then again, it does not seem so..

"The most merciful thing in the world, I think, is the inability of the human mind to correlate all its contents. We live on a placid island of ignorance in the midst of black seas of infinity, and it was not meant that we should voyage far. The sciences, each straining in its own direction, have hitherto harmed us little; but some day the piecing together of dissociated knowledge will open up such terrifying vistas of reality, and of our frightful position therein, that we shall either go mad from the revelation or flee from the deadly light into the peace and safety of a new dark age."

H.P. Lovecraft The Call of Cthulhu , 1928

Alien Contact within 20 years?

The creator of Seti. Dr Frank Drake, recently speculated that within two decades mankind will have some form of contact with extra-terrestrial life.
Deep space exploration methods are already being used on Gliese 581 d, the first extrasolar planet to seemingly be able to sustain life. Gliese is about 20 light years away, and belongs to Libra. More info here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gliese_581

Some say that contact has already been made.
Whatever the case. things are going to get interesting, one way or another...

Dyatlov Pass Incident: Paranormal weirdness or legend?

Creepy wikipedia Article with links to an eerie incident involving 9 hikers on the Ural Mounteins, Russia in 1959.
Tents ripped from inside, grey hair, excessive trauma not from human origin and bright spheres reported in the area at the time. Wrap it all up with a communist government cover-up, and you have a case that will take lots of manpower to unravel, if that is possible..

UPDATE: The link doesn't work but there's a movie out: The Devil's Pass (aka The Dyatlov Pass Incident) by none other than Renny Harlin!  Fairly good Cinematography and Effects, but the script contains everything from Government officials to Time Travel and Wormholes, all in a simplistic, Blair Witch Project context.. Nevertheless, interesting attempt..
