Experts may have found what's bugging the bees
A fungus that caused widespread loss of bee colonies in Europe and Asia may be playing a crucial role in the mysterious phenomenon known as Colony Collapse Disorder that is wiping out bees across the United States, UC San Francisco researchers said Wednesday...
Village that disappeared
How can an entire village with 1,200 people simply disappear without a trace? The Royal Canadian Mountain Police has been asking that question for many years. This is another unexplained case, which has never found a satisfactory explanation. This remarkable incident took place in the winter of 1930s in Canada...
The ghost of Wilson Library
The Wilson library can send chills down anyone's spine. Built in 1928, the library is rumored to have a ghost that haunts the six-story building located northwest of Red Square. The microform room is the section of the library where some employees have felt something might be lurking...
MJ12, UFOs and the FBI
Amazingly, next month will mark the 20th anniversary of the first public airing (in Timothy Good’s book Above Top Secret) of the so-called MJ12 documents that captured the imagination and attention of the entire ufological field for years. Indeed,for some - such as Stan Friedman - that attention is as strong today as it ever was...

What do you do with a strange encounter?
Yesterday, I described the strange encounter two Ohio women had with a white Bigfoot. After running over the creature with their car, the women experienced missing time, a phenomenon well known to UFO researchers. High strangeness of that sort shouldn't happen with a Bigfoot encounter. After all, Bigfoots represent nothing more than giant apes. Right? If only the simple explanation fit the facts...
Quantum physics says goodbye to reality
Some physicists are uncomfortable with the idea that all individual quantum events are innately random. This is why many have proposed more complete theories, which suggest that events are at least partially governed by extra "hidden variables". Now physicists from Austria claim to have performed an experiment that rules out a broad class of hidden-variables theories that focus on realism – giving the uneasy consequence that reality does not exist when we are not observing it...

Grim Reaper decides to use an asteroid
Nobody paid attention, but in February scientists re-ported that on April 13, 2036 an asteroid is projected to make a very, very close encounter with earth. The good news is that scientists said there’s only a 1 in 10,000 chance that this thing will hit earth. The bad news is that these chances are 29 years from now. It’ll be the closest pass of any foreign object we can remember. That is, of course, if it passes. It’s likely we will all have different priorities in 29 years...
