GHOST HUNTERS

Ainu man These tribe members (above) were found in the 1800s in Nevada. Those who photographed them were not sure who these wild folks were. Obviously, the facial hair is rather odd, as well as the features to be any Native tribe we know of in America.  They do, however, have the facial hair, features, and even the "paper hats" style head coverings that the Ainu had.  Is there evidence other people have been in the Americas perhaps before the Amerindian people's arrival?  Yes. Penon woman was found in Mexico and dates back 13,000 years ago. The problem is, she had a long Caucasian face and appears to show no indicators she is from the same region as the future Native Americans. In fact, she is compared with Australian aborigine/Polynesian/South Pacific origins.  The mound people, the giants spoken of by the Native People, the coastal indians with Polynesian head shapes, Penon woman, and this obscure tribe in Nevada (above) show definite signs that we have had many other

Body Worlds and Cycle of Life How about displaying dead bodies without flesh for the purpose of scientific displays? Well, some folks didn't mind contributing their remains to educate the public.  She looks so beautiful in the shop window, doesn't she? She's so life-like. Perhaps that is because she is an enbalmed corpse !  How about being exhibited after death with electrical shocks to make your limbs flop around and animate you? Well, in 1803, that was an interesting new trend for public display and the first to do it was convicted murderer, George Forster . Postmortem photos Yes, the gothic Victorian Era certainly was death-obsessed, but it also had photography and many families never got a photo of a family member until death when they wanted a last memento. The dead were sometimes shown in coffins, others propped up as if still alive for the grieving parents to remember how they were alive....

It dawned on me while I was running today (5 miles a day) that weight isn't so much about lack of discipline or cravings. It's about living an ingenuine life. 2007 When I was very unhappy in my life, stuck in a role I didn't want, limited by my self expression, and basically told to stay in line and not stand out or do anything "strange," I ended up wearing beige to blend in and be invisible and ate my anger. I had a life I imagined for myself and I was 180 degrees the wrong direction. I had let someone else's expectations, values, priorities and vision of me direct my decisions and even my relationship with myself (as I lost respect for me for not standing up and claiming "this is not me!") When I started my own life, doing what I want, my way, expressing my intelligence, my loving nature, my curiosity, adventure, talents... when I started painting, writing, communicating, speaking, expressing... food was not an issue any longer. As I workout to r

A few years ago, I posted a very popular article about the slope-headed people/ancient giants. Since then, I've come to more personal conclusions about their origins along the lines of hybrid offspring of Neanderthal/Denisovans. But, it came to my attention after publishing the post that the university paper was removed from the online archive site. I do have a copy of it and I would encourage people to read it and come to their own conclusions. If you want to know the things I pointed out about the contents, please read THIS ARTICLE first.  I am sharing this paper because many have asked to see it and rather than send it privately to people, I thought sharing it openly as I do all other information on the blog, would be the best way to get other minds on the task, other researchers to explore, and curious intelligent folks to determine what they think of these "otamid" skull shapes that showed up around the world and in the Americas in the mound building regions and coa

Sedona, Arizona (above) is certainly colorful, but there are places in the world that are so colorful that if you don't have a camera with you, you may weep.  Russian abandoned salt mine Russia has an abandoned salt mine that is very psychedelic!  Blue Canyon, Death Valley Death Valley may look barren and very rocky and dead, but the geology in the area shows some extraordinary colors.  Coyote Buttes, Utah Grand Prismatic Spring, Wyoming This is the largest hot spring in the US and third largest in the world. It contains the colors of the rainbow. Pigmented archae along the edges of the mineral-rich water create a color prism.  YuanYang Terraces, China These man-made rice terraces are flooded with water, change colors depending on the season and growing. Antelope Canyon, Arizona The Navajo name for this canyon is place where water runs through rock.  Dallol, Ethiopia Potash, sylvite and salt mining was done here on large scale.  Lake Retba, Senegal The high salt content in this lak
