Noah's Flood start in the Carmel, Is That True?

A deluge that swept the Land of Israel more than 7,000 years ago, submerging six Neolithic villages opposite the Carmel Mountains, is the origin of the biblical flood of Noah, a British marine archeologist said Tuesday.

The new theory about the source of the great flood detailed in the Book of Genesis comes amid continuing controversy among scholars over whether the inundation of the Black Sea more than seven millennia ago was the biblical flood.

In the theory posited by British marine archeologist Dr. Sean Kingsley and published in the Bulletin of the Anglo-Israeli Archaeological Society, the drowning of the Carmel Mountains villages - which include houses, temples, graves, water wells, workshops and stone tools - is by far "the most compelling" archeological evidence exposed to date for Noah's flood.

"What's more convincing scientifically, a flood in the Black Sea, so far away from Israel and the fantasy of a supposed ark marooned on the slopes of Mount Ararat, or six submerged Neolithic villages smack-bang in the middle of the Bible Land?" Kingsley said in a telephone interview with The Jerusalem Post.

He added that the site, which has been excavated by Israeli archeologist Dr. Ehud Galili over the last quarter-century, offers a "pretty convincing cocktail of coincidences," including submerged layers of villages in a critical location, and one that was known for its nautical revolution.

But Galili rejected Kingsley's theory, saying Tuesday that it could not be true.

Do Dinosaurs still exist ?By : P.D. Roberts

Paul Dale Roberts: Like I said once before, HPI investigates all things paranormal, even sightings of dinosaurs. I got an email from Zeiker Tamoshkin. Zeiker makes claim that while flying in a helicopter through the tropics of the Congo in Africa, he thought he saw a brontosaurus. This is a pretty big claim, except for the fact that a sauropodlike animal with a long neck called the Mokele-Mbembe has been seen in West Central Africa. It has been seen mostly in the Likouala region of the Congo, which is very swampy and remote. Many credible witnesses have come forth with claims of seeing the Mokele-Mbembe, such as missionaries, natives, hunters and explorers.

My work in Haunted and Paranormal Investigations is never done, even though I am trying to have a normal social weekend with friends, emails like these get me intrigued. I placed Haunted and Paranormal Investigations Ghosthunter-in-Training Chantal Renee Apodaca on this assignment. To research out any and all information she can get on Mokele-Mbembe or any other dinosaur sightings around the world! I would meet up with Chantal on Saturday, August 23, 2008 to retrieve her data. This Friday, I would try and forget about dinosaurs and head over to Andrews Park/Creekwalk to listen to a live band that is playing at this park. I would hook up with my friends Lynn & Cedric. We would later head over to Stars for more music and fun with a group called Cheeseballs. But, even though everyone was having fun around me, I was still thinking of Zeiker's email. Is it really true? Could a dinosaur or dinosaurs still exist in Africa?

Saturday was finally here, I told Chantal to meet me at my godson Mark Edward Landon Crew's home in Plumas Lake for his birthday. When I arrived, the atmosphere was festive, there was karaoke in one room and in other rooms of this spacious new home, people were dining on a huge banquet of Filipino food. Chantal was eager to show me what she found, but with so much going on at the birthday party, I told Chantal to wait and later we would head over to a quiet bar at Cache Creek Casino and go over the paperwork.

Finally we left the fun times at Dirk & Maria Crew's home and headed over to Cache Creek Casino - Club 88. The band didn't start and it was nice and quiet at the bar. Chantal delivered data that human footprints have been found at a Colorado dry creek next to dinosaur prints. This would place the existence of man in the dinosaur age. But, this doesn't tell me that if dinosaurs do exist in the present time. Plus, what if those footprints found in the Colorado dry creek are not the foot prints of humans, but are foot prints of extraterrestials that were visiting Earth during the age of dinosaurs? If they were extraterrestial footprints, this would give credence to Erich von Daniken's theory of ancient astronauts visiting Earth during ancient times. Very interesting.

Chantal and I, discussed on how dragons are reptiles. We discussed the how they are similar to dinosaurs and it seems that every ancient culture believed that dragons existed. Chantal points out that at Babylon, at the Temple of Bel, Nebuchadnezzer kept a dragon around and when he tried to represent the dragon as a god, Daniel poisoned and killed the dragon. The dragon is referred to as the Sirrush. So, if you believe in biblical stories, then this story has some credibility. There are reportings of dinosaur looking creatures found at Loch Ness. Even one time at Folsom Lake in the early 60s. a sea serpent was seen. Folsom Lake is near where I live. Could Nessie of Loch Ness, or Loch Morar Monster, only 70 miles to the southwest of Loch Ness be some sort of Basilosaurus aka Zeuglodon? A Basilosaurus is a primitive serpentine whale that died out 50 million years ago. Could somehow some of these Basilsaurus have survived? Could the Ogopogo of Okanagan also be a Basilosaurus? So many questions and so little answers.

Let's take a look at the Emela Ntouka (Killer of Elephants). One day 3 adult elephants were floating in the river's waters. All three elephants had huge puncture marks embedded into their bodies. The tusks were intact, which would mean that poachers didn't do the killings. The neighboring tribes started talking about how possibly these elephants were killed by a dinosaur. This happened at Lake Tele, Africa.

But, not everything happens in Africa. There are dinosaur sightings also in South America. The natives have seen tracks of their elusive swamp dwelling beast(s). Tracks that look like tracks from dinosaurs. No, I am not talking about fossilized tracks, I am talking about fresh tracks. It is rumored that in the steep mountains of Guayana Massif, there may be some surviving dinosaurs. Also in South America natives claim to see a plesiosaur type of creature in their neighboring lake.

So it appears that Africa and South America is teeming with dinosaur activity. That is great, at least we don't have dinosaurs in North America (unless you want to count sea serpent claims in our Great Lakes and other areas). Wait, what's this? Chantal hands over some documents and it appears that Myrtle Snow claimed to have seen baby dinosaurs in Pagosa Springs, Colorado. This happened in 1935. She then claims to have witnessed other dinosaurs in 1937 and 1978. How can one person have seen so many dinosaurs throughout the years? I think there was something in the water at Pagosa Springs. This story is hard to chew. Thanks Chantal, but what else do you have? Chantal hands one more document over to me. In 1934, a South Dakota farmer claimed he saw a dinosaur in Campbell Lake. The key word is 'claim'. There is no proof of his sighting and a through search of past records indicates no other witnesses saw this dinosaur except that South Dakota farmer and there is no photographic evidence. Claims make good stories, but we need some kind of proof.

The only reason why the South American and African dinosaurs have some foundation of truth is because there are so many witnesses to the events. Either all these people are lying or they are actually seeing something in those jungles.

I conclude this article with the following possibilities of what these witnesses are seeing. They are either seeing:
a) The residual haunting effect of dinosaurs of the past. The residual energy left by these former reptiles could be imprinted into the atmosphere.
cool.gif Or they could be seeing an interdimensional creature that is able to jump from our reality into another reality. This would explain why no dinosaur has been shot and killed or captured. Many theorists think that Bigfoot is an interdimensional creature and that is why we cannot capture or kill a Bigfoot.

Whatever the situation is, many people are claiming to be seeing dinosaurs in Africa and South America. This is truly an X-Files type of case, with no simple answers.

As Chantal and I, were ready to wrap up this case, the band began to start. We were ready to call it a day.

The band that was playing is called Ridgemont High and they can be found at www.ridgemonthighrocks.com . They started playing a slew of 80s hits. We were in complete awe, because one of the band members is only 14 years old and she had the voice of a superstar. Everyone in the audience was in awe. The other lovely lady in the band is also part of www.steelbreeze.info and she also rocked the house. Everyone in the band took turns at various songs of the 80s and they were tremendously good! Before we knew it we found ourselves on the dance floor dancing to Journey, Gap Band, Robert Palmer and many other great artists. We got entranced with the music and one of the band members thanked the Solid Gold Dancers. He was talking about Chantal and I. So much for getting home early and working on this article. We stayed at Club 88 until it closed, dancing the night away.

Sasquatch Sightings In Northern British Columbia, Canada

Houston, British Columbia, Sept. 25 (UPI) -- Paranormal specialists say there have been three reported Sasquatch sightings in northern British Columbia in Canada within a month.
Brian Vike, director of (Houston, British Columbia, Canada) HBCC UFO Research, told The (Vancouver) Province he doesn't "know what to make of all this."
Delores Harrie of Houston said her dogs started barking July 28 and when she went outside to see what was what she saw some kind of hairy creature running into a wooded area.
"It was huge, about 7 to 8 feet tall, and hairy," she said. "He had long hair, shaggy."
She said it wasn't a grizzly bear because it was running on two legs.
She notified Vike, who investigated and said he found markings on the ground.

"There's some cow tracks, but this was something else -- someone with a good-sized foot," he said
The report said there was another sighting in the area in July and one in Moricetown, about 90 minutes away, Aug. 27 -- as well as a sighting Aug. 31 in Campbell River on Aug. 31.

Cobra's Albino From India

This rare albino cobra may look beautiful, but it is just as deadly as the rest of its species.
The three-and-a-half foot reptile was the only one of his albino siblings to survive, and is now kept on his own in a specially constructed enclosure.

Called Goya, he spends most of its day indoors due to his sensitivity to light, only venturing outside for his daily meal of five live rats.

Visitors flock to the Madras Crocodile Bank Trust in the Indian city of Chennai because of Goya's remarkable beauty, according to the trust's curator.

"We explain to them that Goya is actually lucky to be here because he would not survive for long in the wild as he has virtually no camouflage," Nikhil Whitaker said.

"Cobras in India are revered amongst the Hindu population, so you can imagine the interest a specimen such as this creates," he added.

"We sometimes think that he knows that he receives special attention and plays up to that."

Goya, who is a milky colour with shades of pink, was a gift from Dehiwala Zoo in Sri Lanka where they specially breed albino snakes.

Cobra bites can be fatal because of their deadly venom, but they only attack humans if they believe their survival is threatened.

The Leopard sharks With Swimmer in California

Paddling into the crystal clear waters she had no idea she was walking into every swimmer's nightmare -dozens of sharks collecting off the coast of Marina Del Rey, near Los Angeles, California.

Before she knew it, she was surrounded by dozens of Leopard sharks - and had to make a dash for the shore.

The dramatic episode was captured on film by a traffic helicopter from a local news show last month.

The KTLA helicopter had been in the skies following news stories and providing traffic updates for the Los Angeles television station.

In almost comic scenes, it catches the moments she suddenly spots the array of fins and realising her predicament she sprints for the beach.

Distinctively marked with dark brown spots on a silvery grey background, they are known to grow up to seven feet in length.

In hindsight the swimmer can reassure herself that the leopard sharks posed little danger to humans.

The Hedgehog Blonde Found in Gobowen, Shropshire.

Staff at wildlife centre are nursing back to health an extremely rare but prickly character.

A blonde hedgehog, which was found weak and struggling in Gobowen, Shropshire, has been taken to the Stapeley Grange Centre in Cheshire.

A spokesman said they had never had a blonde hedgehog before.

The hedgehog, thought to be a few months old, will stay at the centre until she reaches a satisfactory weight and will then be released.

Recessive gene

Dr Andrew Kelly said the centre receives about 600 hedgehogs a year but has never received a blonde one.

"They are extremely rare so it's a delight to have one in our care," he said.

Mr. Drew Hammonds Snapping Turtle At Earlswood Lake Near Birmingham

When fisherman Drew Hammonds saw a spiky armour-plated creature at the end of his line, he made a snap decision.
He dropped his rod and started to run. But after a quick look back he realised he had landed a snapping turtle.
And being so far from its native U.S., it was very snappy indeed.
Mr Hammonds, 37, caught the turtle early last Tuesday while fishing with friends at Earlswood Lake near Birmingham.

‘I only went fishing for carp,’ he said. ‘I thought I’d caught a big one when my rod started to bend. ‘Then I spotted a big shell coming out of the water, with spikes on its back.

‘It was hissing and spitting when we caught it - it was really vicious. You couldn’t go anywhere near it without it going for you.

‘It ripped through my net and my friend’s net.’ Worried that the turtle was hurt, the men tried to remove the hook in its mouth before putting it back in the water.

‘It kept snapping at me so I had to be careful. In the end I used metal forceps to cut through the hook. I had to do it quickly, because it was going for my hand.’

Turtle specialist Paul Eversfield identified the creature as an alligator snapping turtle (macroclemys temminckii). Mr Eversfield, from the British Chelonia Society, said the turtles were native to the southern states of the U.S.

‘They are potentially the largest freshwater turtles in the world with record size of over 100kg,’ he said.
‘As such, they represent the top predator in their natural environment and are capable of eating large fish and water fowl. Their natural diet is fish, crayfish, and smaller turtles.

‘Having been around, largely unchanged for nearly 200 million years, their survival strategy obviously works very well.
