nasa’s Spaceward Bound program sent dozens of middle school teachers to California State University’s Desert Study Center in Zzyzx, on the edge of the barren Mojave Desert, to conduct science research in an extreme environment. Participants experienced, first-hand, NASA-related field science and will use their field work to develop experiments, demonstrations and lesson plans for their students, t…

A mystery creature was allegedly beaten to death by a group of teenagers in Panama. The youths apparently spotted the monster crawling out of a cave near the town of Cerro Azul, north of Panama City. Frightened and fearing for their safety they attacked the creature with sticks as it moved towards them. It is described as ‘hairless with a rubbery body and revolting features’. A hooked claw visible in the pictures led some cryptozoologists to believe that the creature could have been a sloth that in some way lost its hair. The teenagers returned and took photographs but since then the body has disappeared. Other possible identifications given are a dead dog, movie prop or a marketing stunt.

Acoustic analysis of the ‘giggle’ sound made by spotted hyenas has revealed that the animals’ laughter encodes information about age, dominance and identity. Researchers writing in the open access journal BMC Ecology recorded the calls of 26 hyenas in captivity and found that variations in the giggles’ pitch and timbre may help hyenas to establish social hierarchies.
Frederic Theunissen, from the University of California at Berkeley, USA, and Nicolas Mathevon, from the Universite Jean Monnet, St. Etienne, France worked with a team of researchers to study the animals in a field station at Berkeley. Theunissen said, ‘The hyena’s laugh gives receivers cues to assess the social rank of the emitting individual. This may allow hyenas to establish feeding rights and organise their food-gathering activities.’
The researchers found that while the pitch of the giggle reveals a hyena’s age, variations in the frequency of notes can encode information about dominant and subordinate status. These vocalisations are mainly produced during food contests by animals that are prevented from securing access to a kill, and have been considered a gesture of submission.
Nazi International:
The title of this interview, Nazi International, refers to Joseph Farrell’s most recent book, in which he details – as do Camelot witnesses Jim Marrs and Peter Levenda, and many other researchers (including Jim Keith, who died in unusual circumstances and to whom we pay tribute here) – how the Nazis were experimenting with technology extremely advanced for their time, and how many Nazi scientists, evaluated as being valuable resources for post-war America, were repatriated to the US under Project Paperclip.
We first heard of Joseph Farrell from Richard Hoagland – and soon after from Nick Cook, the author of The Hunt for Zero Point. Farrell, like Peter Levenda, is essentially an academic: a document researcher who digs deep into historical detail and has become fascinated, as many others have, with the hidden history of the Third Reich. He has continued Igor Witkowski’s and Nick Cook’s research into the enigmatic Nazi Bell: an experimental device, classified at the highest level, that seems to have been used to investigate time distortion effects or antigravity – very possibly both – based on the beginnings of theoretical torsion physics that was being developed in the 1920s and 1930s by a number of brilliant European scientists, themselves very much ahead of their time.
In this interview, Bill Ryan takes the lead and talks with Joseph Farrell in some depth about his work. The interview takes the viewer on a journey which starts before the Second World War, and explores just what German scientists may have been doing in great secret, with the full support of the SS. And, as the title of the video indicates, the story by no means ends there. This video may be of considerable interest to students of wartime advanced technology, and of the hidden history of the Third Reich.
