In southern Indiana there is an
area which some researchers of the paranormal claim is a focal point for
paranormal activity, and as such the area known as Lucky Point has become a
focal point of investigations by members of the Unexplained Phenomena Research
Organization. The swampy wooded area is located in rural Knox County near the
town of Monroe City. According to some, strange occurrences have happened there
over the years. The Unexplained Phenomena Research Organization (U.P.R.O.) is a
national group dedicated to investigating unexplained supernatural mysteries.
The Indiana chapter of the group is headed by Jerry Sievers out of his home in
Vincennes, Indiana. "We have had reports of things from U.F.O.'s, Sasquatch
sightings, spook lights and ghosts in this area," Sievers commented. One
prominent mystery involves two utility poles buried in concrete, which some
witnesses have claimed to observe shaking. Sievers said the poles seem to make a
rattling sound sometimes. Additionally the ground has been reported as shaking
at a rate of 50-feet an hour.
"They are two sets of double
polls buried in concrete with a road running between them," Sievers said.
"People up at Lucky Point watching for U.F.O.s have reported hearing the poles
rattle." REMC, the utility company responsible for maintaining the poles, has
denied there is any problem with the poles. However, Sievers claims company
representatives know about the polls, but have told him they cannot determine
the reason for the rattling poles. Another problem which Sievers says
accompanies the rattling is that such items as camcorders mysteriously stop
working in the area of the poles. Sievers said it can take five visits to Lucky
Point before one is able to hear the mysterious rattling noise. "Witnesses who
have heard the noise and reported it to us have said it could not be the
electricity. Sometimes the vibrations are so extreme that the insulators holding
the wire will jar and rattle," Sievers said...

Deep inside an underwater cave in Mexico, archaeologists may have discovered the oldest human skeleton ever found in the Americas.

If that age is accurate, the skeleton—along with three others found in underwater caves along the Caribbean coast of the Yucatán Peninsula—could provide new clues to how the Americas were first populated.

Scientists believe Americans reached Europe over 500 years before Columbus reached America. The research is based on studies of the genetic past of an Icelandic family the results of which suggest that a woman from the Americas reached Iceland almost 1000 years ago.

Submitted by Xsas: A map due to be unveiled in Beijing and London next week may lend weight to a theory a Chinese admiral discovered America before Christopher Columbus. The map, which shows North and South America, apparently states that it is a 1763 copy of another map made in 1418. If true, it could imply Chinese mariners discovered and mapped America decades before Columbus' 1492 arrival. The map, which is being dated to check it was made in 1763, faces a lot of scepticism from experts. ...
