Human parts processing factory (like sardines)A factory in Russia harvesting kidneys, eye corneas and other human body parts for sale.Bodies are collected from drunk drivers who died in car accidents, people staying alone who had frozen to death in the cold winter, criminals on death row or unexplained death and unclaimed bodies. Some body parts and bones are sold to Universities in various parts of the world. Leg bones are exported to pharmacies in Ireland and Germany to make tooth-fillings which is popular in Europe .Other than Russia , India is also known to harvest human parts for exportPASS THIS ON TO AS MANY AS POSSIBLE, ESPECIALLY TO ALL FRIENDS OVERSEAS TOO!What a shocking trend!! Friends be very very careful, when you go out in public & also do not hang around with people you have just met. Avoid going about alone at night. This can happen to both females & males too. Also thought is being given to the child who passed away at the Kuliyapitiya hospital recently whose body was found minus some organs at the mortury !Stay close to your little ones, kids as they are easiest to be grabbed into a vehile & taken away. There was a mention of a human body parts factory in India too. They may well have associates over here too.So for what it's worth to be careful of you & your family.

Creator Of Tesla Coils (Paranormal military utilities)
Serbian-American inventor and researcher who discovered the rotating magnetic field, the basis of most alternating-current machinery. He emigrated to the United States in 1884 and sold the patent rights to his system of alternating-current dynamos, transformers, and motors to George Westinghouse the following year. In 1891 he invented the Tesla coil, an induction coil widely used in radio technology.
Tesla was from a family of Serbian origin. His father was an Orthodox priest; his mother was unschooled but highly intelligent. A dreamer with a poetic touch, as he matured Tesla added to these earlier qualities those of self-discipline and a desire for precision.
Training for an engineering career, he attended the Technical University at Graz, Austria, and the University of Prague. At Graz he first saw the Gramme dynamo, which operated as a generator and, when reversed, became an electric motor, and he conceived a way to use alternating current to advantage. Later, at Budapest, he visualized the principle of the rotating magnetic field and developed plans for an induction motor that would become his first step toward the successful utilization of alternating current. In 1882 Tesla went to work in Paris for the Continental Edison Company, and, while on assignment to Strassburg in 1883, he constructed, in after-work hours, his first induction motor. Tesla sailed for America in 1884, arriving in New York, with four cents in his pocket, a few of his own poems, and calculations for a flying machine. He first found employment with Thomas Edison, but the two inventors were far apart in background and methods, and their separation was inevitable.
In May 1885, George Westinghouse, head of the Westinghouse Electric Company in Pittsburgh, bought the patent rights to Tesla's polyphase system of alternating-current dynamos, transformers, and motors. The transaction precipitated a titanic power struggle between Edison's direct-current systems and the Tesla-Westinghouse alternating-current approach, which eventually won out.
Tesla soon established his own laboratory, where his inventive mind could be given free rein. He experimented with shadowgraphs similar to those that later were to be used by Wilhelm Röntgen when he discovered X-rays in 1895. Tesla's countless experiments included work on a carbon button lamp, on the power of electrical resonance, and on various types of lighting.
Tesla gave exhibitions in his laboratory in which he lighted lamps without wires by allowing electricity to flow through his body, to allay fears of alternating current. He was often invited to lecture at home and abroad. The Tesla coil, which he invented in 1891, is widely used today in radio and television sets and other electronic equipment. That year also marked the date of Tesla's United States citizenship.
Westinghouse used Tesla's system to light the World's Columbian Exposition at Chicago in 1893. His success was a factor in winning him the contract to install the first power machinery at Niagara Falls, which bore Tesla's name and patent numbers. The project carried power to Buffalo by 1896.
In 1898 Tesla announced his invention of a teleautomatic boat guided by remote control. When skepticism was voiced, Tesla proved his claims for it before a crowd in Madison Square Garden.
In Colorado Springs, Colo., where he stayed from May 1899 until early 1900, Tesla made what he regarded as his most important discovery-- terrestrial stationary waves. By this discovery he proved that the Earth could be used as a conductor and would be as responsive as a tuning fork to electrical vibrations of a certain frequency. He also lighted 200 lamps without wires from a distance of 25 miles (40 kilometres) and created man-made lightning, producing flashes measuring 135 feet (41 metres). At one time he was certain he had received signals from another planet in his Colorado laboratory, a claim that was met with derision in some scientific journals.
Returning to New York in 1900, Tesla began construction on Long Island of a wireless world broadcasting tower, with $150,000 capital from the American financier J. Pierpont Morgan. Tesla claimed he secured the loan by assigning 51 percent of his patent rights of telephony and telegraphy to Morgan. He expected to provide worldwide communication and to furnish facilities for sending pictures, messages, weather warnings, and stock reports. The project was abandoned because of a financial panic, labour troubles, and Morgan's withdrawal of support. It was Tesla's greatest defeat.
Tesla's work then shifted to turbines and other projects. Because of a lack of funds, his ideas remained in his notebooks, which are still examined by engineers for unexploited clues. In 1915 he was severely disappointed when a report that he and Edison were to share the Nobel Prize proved erroneous. Tesla was the recipient of the Edison Medal in 1917, the highest honour that the American Institute of Electrical Engineers could bestow.
Tesla allowed himself only a few close friends. Among them were the writers Robert Underwood Johnson, Mark Twain, and Francis Marion Crawford. He was quite impractical in financial matters and an eccentric, driven by compulsions and a progressive germ phobia. But he had a way of intuitively sensing hidden scientific secrets and employing his inventive talent to prove his hypotheses. Tesla was a godsend to reporters who sought sensational copy but a problem to editors who were uncertain how seriously his futuristic prophecies should be regarded. Caustic criticism greeted his speculations concerning communication with other planets, his assertions that he could split the Earth like an apple, and his claim of having invented a death ray capable of destroying 10,000 airplanes at a distance of 250 miles (400 kilometres).
After Tesla's death the custodian of alien property impounded his trunks, which held his papers, his diplomas and other honours, his letters, and his laboratory notes. These were eventually inherited by Tesla's nephew, Sava Kosanovich, and later housed in the Nikola Tesla Museum in Belgrade. Hundreds filed into New York City's Cathedral of St. John the Divine for his funeral services, and a flood of messages acknowledged the loss of a great genius. Three Nobel Prize recipients addressed their tribute to "one of the outstanding intellects of the world who paved the way for many of the technological developments of modern times." (I.W.H.)

Weird Monster From The Sea
This is very weird monster no one know about it and maybe we should think that we only know a little bit of what suppose to be in sea. Very fantastic monster.A strange ugly sea monster was cast ashore in Guinea.The partially decomposed monster has 4 paws, a tail and long fur.The scientists who examined the creature said that they had already seen such animals before, but they have no clue to their definition.
Take a breath for a while, we should think again as a human being we are very small to know and conquer the universe.

The Paranormal History of Halloween
The Celtic New Year called Samhain (pronounced so-wein) was observed on October 31 by the ancient Druids to celebrate the end of summer. It was believed that on that night, the veil between the world of the dead and the world of the living was at its thinnest. The spirits of all who died the preceding year would haunt the land in search of (living) people to possess and to escape the uncertain afterlife. To avoid possession, the living would dress up in ghoulish costumes and parade around in an attempt to scare off the spirits. The parade was also meant to distract the spirits and lead them out of the area.
The modern celebration of Halloween is shrouded in controversy and jovial indulgence. Many Christian churches shun the holiday due to its occult origin and links to ancient devil worship. But how did this holiday of celebrating fears and horror originate?
The name "Halloween" is a corruption of All Hallows Eve which was the night before the Catholic observance of All Saints Day, a day for commemorating the saints. The Roman Church took events from Samhain and made it their own holiday.
The modern practice of going door to door in search of treats is a representation of the Celtic New Year tradition of placing treats out on doorways to appease the spirits which lurked about that night. The idea was that a spirit which was looking for a person to possess would find the bowl of fruit, nuts, and other treats instead of those who lived within the house. After indulging on the food, the spirit would leave in peace.
The modern traditions of Halloween and how we celebrate the holiday are based on the pagan rituals of the Druids. Below, we cover some of the most common.
Trick or Treating
The early church paralleled this act around the ninth century AD in an event called "souling" on November 2nd. Christians would go door to door collecting "soul cakes" which were square pieces of bread with currants. The person who collected the cakes would pledge to say prayers on behalf of the deceased relatives of the donors. The more cakes that were gathered, the more prayers would be said, and the soul of the deceased would quickly find Heaven.
Jack-O-Lanterns
Early trick or treaters would place a burning candle into a hollowed turnip to light their way on Halloween night. The turnip was replaced with a pumpkin when Irish immigrants came to America and found the large squash to be more plentiful.
The Jack-O-Lantern is also loosely based on creatures of ancient lore, also known as will-o-the-wisps, fox fire, fairie fire, friar’s lantern, and corpse lantern. These creatures were believed to be souls of the dead who are trapped among the world of the living because of a certain evil deed committed in life. The will-o-the-wisp was known in folklore to lure victims into swamp areas until they became lost, disoriented, and died. The stranded victim would also allegedly hear the sound of mocking laughter after becoming hopelessly lost in the forest. The modern Jack-O-Lantern is a representation of these mischievous spirits.
Bonfires
Bonfires are a common Halloween event but, again, can be traced back to the Celtic new year celebration. People would extinguish all fires in the village except one in the center. This fire was the center of pagan rituals which were believed to be essential to perform in order to receive fire the next year. Such rituals would often include animal and human sacrifices. It is also said that those who were believed to be possessed by spirits would be burned to ward off more possession.
Other Halloween Customs
Many of our fun-filled Halloween games were based on divination practices conducted on Samhain. Bobbing for Apples was a marriage divination practice, believing that the first to bite into an apple would be the first to get married that year. Apple peeling was another way of predicting how long one would live. Participants would peel an apple, keeping the peel intact. The longer the peel, the longer the life of the person peeling.
Halloween is not the pagan holiday it once was, and most traditions have long lost their significance. However, the festival of Samhain is still celebrated among modern pagan followers as a celebration of the plentiful harvest. Halloween has and will continue to be a celebration of an ancient belief in the paranormal and a commemoration of our greatest fears.

How To Photograph Ghosts
GHOST STORIES can be frightening... ghost voices in EVPs can be intriguing… but what people really want in the way of haunting evidence are photographs. Photos and videos of ghosts provide the most dramatic evidence for the existence of the spirit world, providing we can be certain that they have not been Photoshopped or otherwise hoaxed. That's why so many ghost hunting groups are so eager to point to the orbs and "ecto" in their photos – they desperately want that hard evidence. Unfortunately, orbs and "ecto", in my opinion, stand as rather poor evidence for ghostly activity since so many other things, such as dust and water vapor, can account for them.
So how can we succeed at photographing ghosts? Here are some ideas.
GO WHERE THE GHOSTS ARE
This seems like an obvious point, but how do we know where the ghosts are? Well, at any given moment, we don't, really. They could be all around us, for all we know. But our best bet is to go to locations where ghost activity has been reported.
Many ghost hunting groups like to hang out in cemeteries with their cameras and recorders. Although I've heard some very good EVP from cemeteries, I haven't seen many convincing photos or video taken there. Just because people are buried there, why should ghosts linger in cemeteries any more than in other locations? (I think the ghost hunting groups just like the spooky atmosphere.)
A better bet would be houses, buildings and other locations where people have actually experienced ghost activity – better yet, where ghostly apparitions have actually been seen.
EQUIPMENT
The type and quality of the photo equipment you use can be important. Most people are using digital cameras these days, and although you don’t need an expensive model, the higher the resolution the better. Cameras of low resolution can produce images with a lot of digital artifacts, especially in low light situations. This artifacting can produce elements in photos that might look paranormal, but aren’t. (Even if they are paranormal, the blocky resolution makes them more difficult to confirm.)
Use cameras of at least 5 megapixels of resolution.
WHAT TO SHOOT
Fortunately, large-capacity memory cards for digital cameras have become quite affordable, allowing us to take lots and lots of photographs, even with high-resolution cameras, before they have to be emptied. So take lots and lots of photos, especially in the areas where ghost activity and apparitions have been reported.
HOW TO SHOOT
Set up your camcorder on a tripod and let them run unattended. You can also try this method with still cameras equipped with a function of snapping a picture on its own every few seconds. Make sure your fellow ghost hunters aren't creeping around this area very much.
WATCH WHAT YOU SHOOT
Avoid shooting into mirrors or other reflective surfaces, especially with a flash. Flash reflections can result in too many questionable images that can be caused by smudges and dust on the reflective surface.
Some researchers believe that ghost images are more readily caught in a reflective medium like a mirror. (In fact, the ghost research group I belong to got one of its best images this way.) But if you do want to shoot into a mirror, do not use a flash. If there's not enough light available, put the camera on a tripod or other stable surface to avoid blurring.
DAY OR NIGHT?
Here's something that occurred to me as I was considering this article. Should we use flashes at all? (It's the flash that produces those questionable orbs and ecto.)
Should we even be doing this research at night in the dark? This is when most ghost hunting groups conduct their research, but why? Watch any episode of Ghost Hunters and they not only conduct their research at night, but also switch off all the lights. Again, why? Because it's spookier? Is there any evidence or research to show that we are more likely to capture ghost photos, video or EVP in the dark than in the middle of the day?
In fact, the opposite might be true. Take a look through this site's gallery of The Best Ghost Photographs Ever Taken. What's one thing they most have in common? Most were taken during the day or in normal light conditions.
So, ghost hunters, why don't we try that as well?
BE LUCKY
The one other thing the photographs in that gallery have in common is this: they happened by chance (with only one or two exceptions, I think). The photographers were not out trying to photograph ghosts. They were just taking pictures for some other purpose, and the ghosts happened to show up in the photos. In fact, that's how most great ghost experiences occur – when we least expect them and on their terms.
Ghost phenomena are fleeting and mercurial. We cannot control when they will happen or how. By definition, we cannot control our luck in capturing a ghost on camera or video. The best we can do is go where the ghosts are, be patient and be persistent. We may never get a photo of an apparition, but if we do, the effort will have been worthwhile.

UK X-Files
Britain’s National Archives have posted online a host of UFO sightings from 1986 to 1992.
AN American fighter pilot flying from an English air base at the height of the Cold War was ordered to open fire on a massive UFO that lit up his radar.
According to an account published by Britain’s National Archives on Monday, the fighter pilot said he was ordered to fire a full salvo of rockets at the UFO moving erratically over the North Sea, but that at the last minute the object picked up enormous speed and disappeared.
The account, first published in Britain’s Daily Star newspaper more than 17 years ago and to this day unverified by military authorities, was one of many carried in the 1,500 pages the archives made available online (www.nationalarchives.gov.uk).
The unnamed pilot said he and another airman were scrambled on the night of May 20, 1957, to intercept an unusual “bogey’’ on radars at a Royal Air Force Station Manston, an airfield at the south-eastern tip of England about 120km from central London.
“This was a flying object with very unusual flight patterns,’’ the pilot said, according to a typed manuscript of his account mailed to Britain’s Ministry of Defense by a UFO enthusiast in 1988. “In the initial briefing it was suggested to us that the bogey actually was motionless for long intervals.’’
Ordered to fly at full throttle in cloudy weather, the pilot said he was given the order to fire a volley of 24 rockets at the mysterious object.
“To be quite candid I almost (expletive) my pants!’’ the pilot said, saying he asked for confirmation - which he received.
Retired US airman Milton Torres told Britain’s Sky News on Monday that he was the pilot and has spent 50 frustrating years attempting to uncover the truth of his mid-air encounter.
Speaking from his home in Miami, Florida, Torres said he never saw the UFO with his naked eye, but watched in awe as it appeared on his jet’s radar and sped off before he had the chance to fire.
“All of a sudden as it was coming in, it decided to take off and leave me behind. The next thing I know, it was gone,’’ Torres told Sky News. “It was some kind of space alien craft. It was so fast, it was so incredible ... it was absolutely death defying.’’
In the newly published government file, the US airman said the UFO appeared impossible to miss.
“The blip was burning a hole in the radar with its incredible intensity,’’ the pilot said. “It was similar to a blip I had received from B-52s and seemed to be a magnet of light.
“I had a lock on that thing which had the proportions of a flying aircraft carrier.’’
As he closed in on the object to prepare for combat, however, the object began to move wildly before fading off his radar. The target gone, the mission was called off, and he returned to base to an odd reception.
“I had not the foggiest idea what had actually occurred, nor would anyone explain anything to me,” the pilot said.
He said he was led to a man in civilian clothes, who “advised me that this would be considered highly classified and that I should not discuss it with anybody, not even my commander.’’
“He disappeared without so much as a goodbye and that was that, as far as I was concerned,’’ the pilot said, according to the account.
Britain’s military said it had no record of the incident, according to the files. Neither did the US military.
The second pilot’s account, also included in the files, paints a somewhat different picture of events, saying there were not one but several “unknowns’’ and that he did not remember being contacted by anyone about staying quiet. He did not mention the targets’ size.
“I know this is not a very exciting narrative but it is all I can recall,’’ the second pilot said.
His name, like his colleague’s, was redacted from the files.
David Clarke, a UFO expert who has worked with the National Archives on the document release, said it was one of the most intriguing stories he had culled from the batch of files released on Monday, which included witness accounts, investigations, and sketches and was part of a three to four-year programme intended to make a total of 160 UFO-related files available to the public.
He said that the CIA once had a programme intended to create phantom signals on radar €“ and that this may have been an exercise in electronic warfare.
Whatever the case, Clarke argued that “there’s no doubt something very unusual happened.’’ - AP

David Clarke, a UFO expert who has worked with the National Archives on the document release, said it was one of the most intriguing stories he had culled from the batch of files released on Monday, which included witness accounts, investigations, and sketches and was part of a three to four-year programme intended to make a total of 160 UFO-related files available to the public.
He said that the CIA once had a programme intended to create phantom signals on radar €“ and that this may have been an exercise in electronic warfare.
Whatever the case, Clarke argued that “there’s no doubt something very unusual happened.’’ - AP
Dr. Azzacove opinion
"As a communist I don’t believe in heaven or the Bible but as a scientist I now believe in hell," said Dr. Azzacove. "Needless to say we were shocked to make such a discovery. But we know what we saw and we know what we heard. And we are absolutely convinced that we drilled through the gates of hell!"Dr. Azzacove continued, ". . .the drill suddenly began to rotate wildly, indicating that we had reached a large empty pocket or cavern. Temperature sensors showed a dramatic increase in heat to 2,000 degrees Fahrenheit." "We lowered a microphone, designed to detect the sounds of plate movements down the shaft. But instead of plate movements we heard a human voice screaming in pain! At first we thought the sound was coming from our own equipment.""But when we made adjustments our worst suspicions were confirmed. The screams weren’t those of a single human, they were the screams of millions of humans!"
History Of Satan
History of Satan – Where did he come from?The history of Satan is described in the Bible in Isaiah 14:12-15 and Ezekiel 28:12-19. These two biblical passages also reference the king of Babylon, the King of Tyre, and the spiritual power behind the kings. What caused Satan to be cast from Heaven? He fell because of pride that originated from his desire to be God instead of a servant of God. Satan was the highest of all the angels, but he wasn’t happy. He desired to be God and rule the universe. God cast Satan out of heaven as a fallen angel.
History of Satan – Who is he?Satan is often caricatured as a red-horned, trident-raising cartoon villain; no wonder people question the history of Satan. His existence, however, is not based on fantasy. It’s verified in the same book that narrates Jesus’ life and death (Genesis 3:1-16, Isaiah 14:12-15; Ezekiel 28:12-19; Matthew 4:1-11). Christians believe Satan acts as leader of the fallen angels. These demons, existing in the invisible spirit realm yet affecting our physical world, rebelled against God, but are ultimately under His control. Satan masquerades as an “angel of light,” deceiving humans just as he deceived Eve in the beginning (Genesis 3). Jesus Himself testified of Satan’s existence. During His ministry, He personally faced temptation from the devil (Matthew 4:1-11), cast out demons possessing people (Luke 8:27-33), and defeated the evil one and his legion of demon angels at the cross. Christ also helped us understand the ongoing, spiritual war between God and Satan, good and evil (Isaiah 14:12-15; Luke 10:17-20). With Jesus Christ on our side, we need not fear Satan’s limited power (Hebrew 2:14-15). We ought to be wise, however, in resisting his tactics:
“For though we live in the world, we do not wage war as the world does. The weapons we fight with are not the weapons of the world. On the contrary, they have divine power to demolish strongholds. We demolish arguments and every pretension that sets itself up against the knowledge of God, and we take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ” (2 Corinthians 10:3-5).
History of Satan - What is his place now?Throughout the history of Satan, evil has been his identity because he is directly opposite God’s character. God’s holy standard found in the Bible exposes evil. If not relying on its truth, we can easily error:
One error is denying Satan’s existence
Another mistake is fearfully focusing on Satan rather than on Christ Jesus who overcame him
Others outright worship Satan, preferring the darkness of evil rather than light that reveals sin (John 3:19; 2 Corinthians 11:14-15).Any of these approaches please the devil. He wants us denying, fearing, obeying, or worshipping him. Unless we follow the trustworthy source, the Bible, he’ll deceive us (Ephesians 6:10-11).
History of Satan - Satan’s seduction versus realityIn our scientific, rational age, spiritual beliefs are scorned as myth. Satan, however, doesn’t mind those who rebuff the reality of fallen angels or demons. By masking himself, he can tempt and deceive people without blame. The wise will never forget that Satan and demons, determined to deceive humans, are fighting real battles and wars against heavenly angels. Satan compels or entices his prey to follow him whether they realize it or not. Maybe they are simply ignorant and confused. Many would rather believe human theory than obey divine revelation and natural law. Whether blind, bound, or brazenly willing, they join Satan for a doomed destiny. They condemn themselves to eternity in hell. While Satan is more powerful than we humans, God doesn’t leave us defenseless (Ephesians 6:10-11). At the Lord’s rebuke, Satan and his demons shudder and flee (James 2:19; Jude 1:9). When Jesus Christ died, He overcame them (Colossians 2:15). Only in the authority of Jesus does anyone have power to stand against the devil. Those saved from sin by Jesus’ death on the cross are protected; those who are not saved from Satan’s power perish with him (John 3:16; 1 Peter 5:8-10). Who will you spend eternity with? Have you accepted the fact that you are a sinner and that Jesus died on the cross and rose again?
