Published October 19, 2012

Sharpeners may be smoking guns in quest for New World’s second Viking site.

For the past 50 years—since the discovery of a thousand-year-old Viking way station in Newfoundland—archaeologists and amateur historians have combed North America’s east coast searching for traces of Viking visitors.

It has been a long, fruitless quest, littered with bizarre claims and embarrassing failures. But at a conference in Canada earlier this month, archaeologist Patricia Sutherland announced new evidence that points strongly to the discovery of the second Viking outpost ever discovered in the Americas. . . .

Three centuries ago in parts of North America, a strange event turned morning to night. It remains wreathed in mystery – so what caused the Dark Day?

Halfway through the morning the sky turns yellow. Animals run for cover and darkness descends, causing people to light candles and start to pray. By lunchtime night has fallen. Is it the end of the world?

The Dark Day, as it’s become known, took place on May 19, 1780 in New England and parts of eastern Canada. For the past 232 years historians and scientists have argued over the origins of this strange event.

Today there are many theories. Was it the result of volcanic eruption, fire, meteor strike – or something more sinister? . . . Read Complete Report

The Windsor (Canada) Hum

Imagine a noise taking over your peaceful neighborhood, a nighttime nuisance so irritating that it keeps you and your family from sleeping. When you call the police, they are helpless to stop it because it is not the boom box or house party next door. The noise is coming from another country! The people in Canadian communities near Detroit call it “The Windsor Hum”, and the noise that is driving the complaints is being heard in the capitols of both countries. , , , Read Complete Posting

Strange Sounds in the sky 4/22/2012 (Rural) Georgia

Published on Apr 22, 2012 by

Around Mid January 2012 I was sitting in my office when I heard a very bizarre sound outside of window. The sound was sounded like a dragging, dull, sound. When I heard it I immdiatley looked out my window to see what it was. Nothing!

After hearing that other people worldwide has heard this same sound I just forgot about it. because honestly it was very scary that no one else in my family heard it.

Until today when I heard this sound again.
I recorded this footage as not only proof so that people wont think I weird but to share w/ anyone else that may have heard it today in Georgia.

What is it? Why am I hearing it? Why are people worldwide hearing it? What does this mean? . . . SOURCE
