The Top 10 Cryptozoology

Cryptozoology is the investigation / research on living creatures known to science yet. Some of them are creatures that have become legends disuatu areas, or "monsters" often mysterious man reportedly seen by the fact of existence but still a big question mark.

Here is a list of 10 most Cryptozoology creatures caught my attention. Cryptozoology creatures chronological list below is based on my own subjective opinion. So when my friends have a list of 10 "monster" which is different from my normal existence.

10. Mongolian Death Worm

olgoi_horkhoiI put ten Diposisi Mongolian Death Worm. Gobi desert monster that has too long been the prey of this Cryptozoologyst earthworms may be similar but with the shape and size of unusual body. According to several people who had seen him directly, he has a body length of about 1 - 1.5 meters with a physical form resembling human large intestine and blood red.

As the name implies, Mongolian Death Worm is said to be the deadly specimens. He can give off toxins and is said to have electric shock that can easily knock down prey or anyone who tried to disturb him. Recorded several expeditions have been done to find the existence of the monster known as asalanya place allghoi khorkhoi this, but all is still far from expectations not being captured seekorpun (let alone arrested, they appear / appeared to the researchers did not).

9. Short People

2298654-Orang-Pendek-1
Short People I enter into the Top 10 things not because they Cryptozoology reportedly blamed a quiet area of Indonesia Kerinci Seblat National Park, but rather the assumption that some Cryptozoologyst said he was part of the "missing link" in our modern humans. Many are speculating that the person is short of the ancient human species Homo floresiensis, a new species of the genus Homo is often called the "Hobbit" and the skeletons discovered in 2003 and the region of Flores, East Nusa Tenggara, which still survive today.

They (The Short) reportedly been seen by some local residents. However, they are a closed community of the outside world and never interact with humans. According to reports from some tribes Child Within, Short People are often seen carrying the possibility of such a spear used for hunting.

8. Mothman

What is your mind some United States citizens if we ask about the mysterious creature dubbed Mothman? Mengimajinasikannya as they would build such a creature with a human, was a dark, round eyes and a bright red and has wings like the wings of bats. Mothman, a mysterious creature who has legendary diseantero United States was first reported seen in West Virginia, November 15, 1966.

Some theories say, probably has mothman closely related to practice black magic, some speculate that he is a species of unknown animal science / have not been identified. But many were skeptical and consider as lies.

7. Thunderbird

Thunderbird
Name the coolest thing I think to Cryptozoology. The creature is described as a flying creature with a large body size. The first report on the Thunderbird comes from the story of two people who claim the Cowboys have killed a giant bird in the region of Arizona, April 1890. According to them, the form is very strange creature that had no shape like a bird in general. He was too big to be called a bird, its wings like bat wings is said to resemble the face of a crocodile.

thunderbird_02
Cryptozoologyst United States, Ken Gerhard has a theory that Thunderbird is an ancestor of vulture species which are estimated to live 6000 years ago and still exist today. Many also assume that the Thunderbird is a manifestation of pterosaurs / Pterodactyls, a giant flying reptile that existed in the late Triassic period through the Cretaceous period (220 - 65.5 million years ago). But the assumption that Thunderbird is a very doubtful pterosaurs because he reportedly appeared to have a lot of hair covering her body. This course is very different from the pterosaurs whose skin is formed from smooth membranes completely hairless like a bird.

6. Kraken

soc05_kraken
Kraken is a giant sea monster that was legendary. Earlier period, he was so feared by ocean explorers for many folk tales that developed at that time mentioned that the Kraken is a sea monster that could easily destroy their ships. So no wonder, which was reported as being the seabed inhabitants of Norway and Iceland waters are often portrayed in ancient maps as the embodiment of a deadly sea monster, and wherever possible avoided when sailing.

Kraken legend may come from the representation of a giant squid that has body length reaches 13-15 meters including the tentacles, tentacles. And it is said in ancient times a giant animals like this are often reported to attack ships at sea.

5. Mokele-mbembe

mokele3_01
Remote hinterland of Africa, there was a huge creature that has for so long been a legend of local community. He inhabits a place that became one of the pulse of life for some residents of Africa, Congo River. Yes, disungai Africa's second longest after the Nile is a creature called Mokele-mbembe often rumored to be seen. Mokele-mbembe word comes from the Lingala language meaning something that stops the flow of rivers. According to the story from generation to generation native of the valley of the river Congo, Mokele-mbembe was the personification of the dreaded monster of the river because he was very large and dangerous.

The creature is said to be larger than adult african elephant, has four legs and long neck with small head size. Physical form of the picture reminds us of the kinds of dinosaurs like Brontosaurus Sauropoda, Argentinosaurus, etc.. But that certainly, the physical form of representation will vary greatly. According to Roy Mackal-Cryptozoologyst which had twice led the search expedition in the Mokele-mbembe-Congo river, the possibility of a creature called the Mokele-often is a kind of reptile mbembe, a herbivore with an estimated total body length to reach 9 feet. National Geographic himself had held a short expedition in May 2006 for his television series Dangerous Encounters. But unfortunately creature named Mokele-mbembe seemed too shy to enshrined into the camera, so the expedition ended with none of the mysterious creature found.

4. Champ

champ

From the interior of Africa, I invite my friends across the Atlantic to come back to North America. Our goal this time is diperbatasan lake kesebuah United States - Canada which also has a story to the legendary lake monster, Lake Champlain name. At 201 km long lake is said to dwell a lake monster which is often referred to as the Champ. Ditahun 1977, a tourist named Sandra Mansi was suddenly famous for its success capturing the legendary monster figures that have been reported to exist since the 19th century was. From the results of analysis carried out by several experts photographic images that have been taken Sandra, revealed that the image is not engineering. Images that really capture the giant creature that is appear on the surface of the lake.

Some people believe that Champ is probably the figure of a Plesiosaur early, although there are some opinions that say he is a kind of mammal, may be the ancestors of Beluga whales. Lake Champlain is formed at the end of the ice age 10,000 years ago was always meyimpan secret meetings Champ from time to time. Recorded more than 300 reports of sightings Champ, but it is actually the identity of the monster figure is still a big question mark.

3. Bigfoot / Sasquatch

bigfoot1977
Bigfoot is described as being bipedal (walking on two legs), a big tall (height is estimated to 1.5 - 3 meters) with the hair that grows thick disekujur body. He said almost resembles a gorilla but walked upright like modern humans. The creature that reportedly inhabit the forests of the Pacific Northwest region, North America is so famous, not only the United States in the region but throughout the world. Even in some other areas, there are legends about creatures like Bigfoot. Name the Yeti in Tibet, Hibagon in Japan, until the Yowie in Australia.

A controversial video that had captured the figure of Bigfoot is clearly coming from the two hunters Roger Patterson and Bob Gimlin a colleague in 1967. Patterson and Gimlin record these strange creatures Bluff Creek region, Northern California when they hunt. Although many doubt its authenticity, but the video is what makes many people more interested in the figure of Bigfoot.

So far there are several explanations offered to reveal the identity of the creature is often called Bigfoot. Some researchers say that Bigfoot was born most likely as a result of the identification of a specimen. Maybe they were just a bear who was lifted up its front legs so he looked like he was standing. Grover Krantz, Bigfoot researcher one who was so enthusiastic, boldly speculating that Bigfoot is Gigantopithecus blacki species-a species of large apes from Genus Gigantopithecus (Subfamily Ponginae) - which survived the extinction 300,000 years ago. But according to a leading Cryptozoologyst, Loren Coleman, nearly 80% of Bigfoot sightings have been reported to the engineering. That's evident from the many sightings and photographs footprints purely artificial / engineered by some people with a specific purpose.

2. Chupacabra

chupacabra2
My second Diposition put a chupacabra. Mysterious creature that comes from two words in Spanish that "Chupar" which means suction / sucking and "Cabra" which means goat is a manifestation of a creature that was so scary. In addition to its physical form is described like a wolf with a kind of "thorn" that grows in line alongside his spine, chupacabra is a blood sucking creature, especially the blood of farm animals like goats. He frequently reported killed several farm animals at night, and then suck their blood without eating meat at all its victims.

Chupacabra so famous in the region of North and Central America, and several Latin American region. In 1995, a chupacabra is said to have killed eight ewes overnight in an area in Puerto Rico. This is a preliminary report on a successful chupacabra attacks documented.

100469559_554b9b68f3

Most people describe the chupacabra as higher beings with between 1 - 1.2 meters, not mammals but reptiles similar in style to stand and jump like a kangaroo. Many say the assumption that he was probably a kind of wild dogs. Opinions are brave enough to say that the chupacabra is a creature of genetic engineering from a U.S. research institute who escaped from quarantine laboratory Yungue El diskitar region, Puerto Rico ravaged by hurricane hack ditahun 1990'an. In addition, there are unisex which chupacabra mengkait associated with the existence of intelligent creatures of outer space and the UFO phenomenon.

1. Loch Ness Monster

1230752943wRKYInk

rrive at the monster that tops the list of list of 10 things I Cryptozoology version. Loch Ness Monster or Nessie is familiarly called. I first learned about this monster of Doraemon comics I read as a child. Starting from where I got interested in the world because Cryptozoolgy indirectly Nessie has introduced me to this branch of science. So this is a manifestation of my gratitude to Nessie, namely by putting in the first rank.

Nessie, the monster of the lake dwellers Loch Ness, Scotland is so legendary diseantero world. Even its existence has been reported since the 7th century. Dozens of expeditions have been conducted, and had directed hundreds of sonar kedanau Loch Ness to detect the existence of Nessie, but everything seemed in vain. Nessie too shy. He might just dare to show himself while certain times only.

Some reports and evidence in the form of images collected from several witnesses shows that the lake monster Loch Ness spirits have characteristics that differ markedly from Mokele-mbembe. He also was a big, long-necked with a small head size. But unlike the Mokele-mbembe Sauropoda described as a dinosaur, Nessie is more often incorporated into the Plesiosaur family.
1266380969_5462a2d02f

one of the successful image capture controversial figure is the image that Nessie is often referred to as the Surgeon's Photograph. In this photo taken in 1934 is seen silhouette of a long-necked creature walking along the lake Loch Ness at a time when the early evening. But in the sequel, these photos proved to be engineered.

In the year 2007 and, again controversial video circulating on the figure of Nessie taken by a tourist named Gordon Holmes. In the video clearly visible image of a creature that is estimated to have a body length of about 14 meters were swimming along the lake with a quick motion. Silhouette can be clearly seen from the surface of the lake. Could it Nessie? friends please watch his video and his own analysis.

VIDEO
Several explanations are offered the possibility of the phenomenon say that Nessie is a mistake identification of an organism or a common natural phenomenon. In 1979, biologist Dennis Power said that the figure seen in the Surgeon's Photograph is an elephant who was swimming, where the head and his body sank into the water and it can only be seen towering trunk upwards. Elephant's trunk which rises above that gave the impression as if the shape of the neck and the head watchman lake creature known as Nessie.

Another theory says the figure is called Nessie is just a big wooden bar at the bottom of the lake expands. This timber may be initially based on the lake sank, but any time he can come back protruding surface water. This impression as if to show the emergence of a monster from the bottom of the lake.

7 ways to find unclaimed money

Nowadays, we could all use a little bit of extra cash. However, many people have no idea that unclaimed money is waiting with their name on it. In state treasuries alone, 1 in 10 people are owed money from places like banks, former employers and unclaimed tax refunds. If you answer “yes” to any of the questions below, you might be eligible for free dough.

1. Did Your Bank Recently Close?
Once a financial institution fails, the FDIC takes over and is responsible for paying insured deposits and the liquidation of remaining assets. If you did not claim your funds when the bank closed, you still can. “If your bank was never bought out by another bank, there is likely money out there for the bank account holder or power of attorney,” says Marcia Keppy, an unclaimed property expert and asset protection specialist. You can search for unclaimed funds in your name at www2.FDIC.gov/Funds/Index.asp.

2. Did Your Credit Union Fail?
When a credit union with federal insurance is liquidated, the National Credit Union Administration’s Asset Management and Assistance Center is responsible for paying the share accounts to members. Due to uncashed checks or incomplete addresses, some of the money remains unclaimed. If you think the National Credit Union Administration may have funds in your name, contact its Asset Management and Assistance Center at 512-231-7900.

3. Do You Have an FHA-Insured Mortgage?
Then you might be eligible for a refund from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development. Find out if there’s a refund for you at HUD.gov/Offices/HSG/comp/refunds/index.cfm.

4. Are You a Former Employee of a Company That Went Out of Business?
If a company you worked for went belly-up, you may still be eligible for any pension earned while you were there. When a company goes out of business, the pension plan is generally transferred to the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation (PBGC). “The company should contact the former employees, but it just depends,” says Keppy. If the company doesn’t reach out to you, you can check the Missing Participants service at PBGC to see if any money is owed to you at https://Search.PBGC.gov/mp/mp.aspx.

5. Did You Not Receive Your Tax Refund Earlier This Year?
If you have not received your tax refund, it could be due to an incorrect address. There could be other reasons as well. “If you recently got a divorce or a close family member passed away, the IRS could still have an unclaimed tax refund on file,” says Keppy. Visit IRS.gov to claim it.

6. Could You Possibly Have Unclaimed Property in Your State?
Over $32 billion in unclaimed property is currently being safeguarded by state treasurers and agencies. Unclaimed property refers to accounts in financial institutions and companies that have been inactive or had no contact with the owner for over a year. It includes savings or checking accounts, uncashed payroll checks, certificates of deposit, stocks and more. Every U.S. state has unclaimed property programs that help find the rightful owners. “If you’re over 40 or if you’ve moved often, you’re more likely to have unclaimed property,” says Keppy. Also, if your parents have passed away, be sure to check their names. Go to MissingMoney.com to do a free search for money that might be due to you.

7. Do You Qualify for Government Benefit and Assistance Programs?
If you’ve been affected by a disaster or disability, need help with child care or health care, or require tax or living assistance, you may be eligible for financial assistance from the government. Go to GovBenefits.gov and search for specific benefits or take a questionnaire to find out which program(s) you may qualify for.

Can Obama win over the gay community?

Strident conservative attacks on two of President Barack Obama’s gay nominees could temper the impatience gay and lesbian activists show as he speaks to a major gay civil rights group Saturday night — but the widespread restlessness still will be palpable.

Obama’s speech to the Human Rights Campaign dinner comes just days after a gay Education Department official, Kevin Jennings, and a lesbian nominee to the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, Chai Feldblum, were targets of a flurry of criticism from conservative groups and some media outlets.

“It certainly can’t hurt if people on our side realize the vehemence of the opposition the president faces,” a top gay Democrat close to Obama told POLITICO. “The stuff the right wing is cranking out is horrible, terrible. There are a lot of understandably impatient LGBT Americans…but while all their criticism is well-intended, some of it is politically naïve.”

Rep. Barney Frank (D-Mass.) also said gay activists lobbing criticism after criticism at Obama are ignoring real progress being made on Capitol Hill.

“These concerns are wildly unfounded and silly,” Frank told POLITICO. “As Obama speaks, Congress is about to send him the first piece of gay civil rights legislation in American history,” the congressman said, referring to a hate-crimes bill passed Thursday by the House.

Ever since taking office, Obama has come under fire from leading gay and lesbian activists who say he’s foot-dragging on their top priorities – repealing a ban on gays in the military, expanding same-sex marriage and prohibiting workplace discrimination.

Obama has pleaded for patience – saying he’s believes in expanding gay rights but has so much on his plate with the recession and the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan that he and Congress just need more time.

Now, the attacks on Jennings and Feldblum provide a potent reminder of the perils gays and lesbians still face in the political sphere.

Late last month, the Washington Times, Fox News and others alleged that while Jennings was teaching at a Massachusetts school in 1988 he encouraged statutory rape by advising a gay teenager in a relationship with an older man to use a condom. Initial accounts said the youth was 15, but it later emerged that he was 16, the age of consent in Massachusetts.

Jennings, head of the Education Department’s safe and drug-free schools programs, said he regretted the episode and should have reported the incident to authorities. However, conservative groups and Rep. Steve King (R-Iowa) are still calling for his ouster.

The latest target of attack by conservatives is Feldblum, a Georgetown law professor Obama nominated to join the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission.

“She has praised polygamy and contended that traditional marriage should not have privileged status. Apparently, this is just an oddball duck,” radio host Rush Limbaugh said on his program earlier this week.

“I know it’s difficult for a lot of you to understand that there are Americans who don't like this country as constituted,” Limbaugh said. “You think they’re fringe protesters that show up to protest this or that. No. They're running the country now.”

Richard Socarides, the White House liaison to the gay community under President Bill Clinton, said the attacks on Jennings and Feldblum are “pretty much coming from the fringe, but it’s a reminder these issues still have a lot of pop for people in various parts of the country.”

The attacks have a silver lining for Obama. They underscore one aspect of the president’s record gay activists are generally elated about — his nomination of about 100 openly gay and lesbian people to administration jobs.

And the leader of one major gay organization said the attacks on Jennings and Feldblum could shift some of the criticism away from Obama and toward Republicans in Congress – most of whom voted against the hate crimes bill Thursday.

“I think it does that really clearly,” said the advocate, who asked not to be named. Obama “could say, ‘There are people out there who don’t even want you in the room, don’t want you in positions of power. Don’t think as we get into these debates they aren’t going to come out of the woodwork and throw hellfire at us.’ ”

Gay rights leaders said they are satisfied with the administration’s defense of the embattled appointees so far but made clear they’re watching for any signs of wavering.

Jennings and Feldblum “are being targeted not just because they’re gay, but because they’re openly gay and involved in the LGBT civil rights movement,” said Kevin Cathcart of Lambda Legal. “In some quarters of our community, there are concerns about how the administration deals with this…Will they continue backing people up? Will they continue appointing people? How much heat are they going to take?”

And Socarides, Clinton’s liaison, said he didn’t think Obama would get any extra credit just for defending two members of his administration he should stick by anyway.

Some gays and lesbians are still hoping for a major announcement from Obama on Saturday—such as word of an executive order suspending discharges of gays and lesbians from the military. However, there were no indications from the White House that the president would make news.

“He looks forward to speaking directly with the LGBT community about the steps his administration has taken thus far and the progress he hopes to achieve in the coming weeks and months,” White House spokesman Shin Inouye said Friday.

Obama is expected to emphasize what activists deride as “incremental” steps he has taken for gay rights: making federal benefits for same-sex partners more widely available and moving to repeal a ban on immigration by people with HIV.

“They're nice small steps worthy of a President, and a civil rights community, living in the last century. They are unworthy gestures to a core Democratic constituency that was made specific, repeated promises in exchange for its votes, promises that are now being rewritten to ease the political pain of true leadership,” John Aravosis wrote Friday on Huffington Post.

But Frank argued some of the advocates are missing the point – that while they complain about Obama, serious work is getting done on Capitol Hill.

“We are on track to pass four pieces of major civil rights legislation,” Frank said, citing the hate crimes measure, the Employment Non-Discrimination Act, a rollback of the ban on gays in the military, and a measure to give health and life insurance benefits to same-sex partners of federal employees.

“If people in the gay community who are complaining about Barack Obama ... would instead call their senators, we might have the 60 votes we need to pass the bills,” Frank said.

White House press secretary Robert Gibbs struck a similar tone Thursday, urging those seeking a repeal of the Don't Ask, Don't Tell policy to direct their energies to Congress.

Even if Obama plans no substantive policy announcements Saturday, there are things he could say to energize the crowd. Some would like Obama to make a forceful statement against a measure Maine voters will take up in November to repeal a new state law authorizing same-sex marriage.

A spokeswoman for one major conservative group faulted Obama for speaking to the Human Rights Campaign, which she called “the most radical homosexual group in the country.”

“It’s almost as if President Obama seems to be acting as an arm of gay activists who are working to silence Christians,” said Candi Cushman of Focus on the Family.

She also denied that Jennings and Feldblum were being targeted because of their sexuality. “This is not about their private life. This is about the public policy they are pushing,” the spokeswoman said.

Frank said any gay person who needed to be reminded that the community faces strident opposition is simply out of it.

“I wouldn’t let them vote,” the congressman said, before adding, “I guess you have to let them vote because it’s in the Constitution, but I wish you didn’t.”

8 Foods That Fight Fat

Want to lose weight as you chow down? Your wish is granted! (I promise, this is no fairy tale.) Your supermarket is filled with foods that studies show have lipid-melting powers to help melt fat and keep you slim. Stock up on these fat-fighting super bites, and you'll be trimmer even as you indulge. Read on to discover the eight foods that deserve a permanent spot in your fridge—and in your diet!

Almonds These yummy nuts are high in alpha-linolenic acid, which can accelerate your metabolism of fats. In fact, dieters who ate 3 ounces of almonds daily slashed their weight and body-mass index by 18 percent, while those who skipped the nuts reduced both numbers less— just 11 percent—a study in the International Journal of Obesity revealed. Chomp almonds à la carte (limit yourself to 12 per serving to keep calories in check). I get a pack at Starbucks and nibble throughout my day. Or sprinkle them into a recipe such as Black Bean–Almond Pesto Chicken. Go nuts!

Berries I tell my daughter, "These are nature's candy!" Turns out they're also your body's best friends. Strawberries, raspberries and other vitamin C–spiked fruit can supercharge your workout, helping you burn up to 30 percent more fat, research from Arizona State University at Mesa has found. If they're not in season, buy the little gems frozen in a bulk-sized bag so you'll always have them on hand to whip up a Berry Bliss Smoothie or Strawberry-Sunflower Pops, regardless of whether berries are in season.

Cinnamon Adding 1/4 teaspoon to your plate may prevent an insulin spike—an uptick that tells your body to store fat. Sprinkle it on your morning cereal or coffee or on your yogurt in the A.M., or savor it in Apple-Cinnamon-Raisin Oatmeal.

Mustard It's heaven on a soft pretzel, but mustard may also be a weight loss wonder. Turmeric, the spice that gives mustard its color, may slow the growth of fat tissues, a study in the journal Endocrinology finds. Use it on sandwiches instead of mayo, or sprinkle turmeric on cauliflower pre-roasting to give it a kick. Try it on tuna salad—I promise it adds zest.

Oranges This citrus fruit, which contains fat-blasting compounds known as flavones, deserves to be your main squeeze. Women who ate the most flavones had a much lower increase in body fat over a 14-year period, a study in The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition notes. Eat oranges sliced or swig fresh OJ (including pulp!) to get the best benefit from the fruit.

Soybeans Reason to toss a half cup on your salad? Soybeans are rich in choline, a compound that blocks the absorption of fat and breaks down fatty deposits. Oh, and they're addictively delish! But if breast cancer runs in your family, experts suggest you should talk to your doc before adding soy to your diet.

Sweet potatoes The colorful spuds' high-fiber content means they keep your insulin steadier than their white sisters, which means less fat packed on your hips, research finds. Top a small baked tater with lowfat cottage cheese for a tempting side dish, or whip up Miso Soup With Sweet Potato Dumplings.

Swiss cheese Calcium-rich foods reduce fat-producing enzymes and increase fat breakdown, and Swiss has more calcium than many of its cheesy peers. Choose the reduced-fat variety, such as Sargento. Slip it into your sandwich, put it on top of high-fiber crackers or use it for a healthier grilled cheese. Yum!

The identity of Jack the Ripper

Jack the Ripper's identity finally uncovered?

An historian has claimed to have discovered the real identity of Jack the Ripper, and believes the notorious Whitechapel murderer was also responsible for killing two more women.

Trow's research is rooted in information from a 1988 FBI examination of the Ripper case, which had worked up a comprehensive criminal personality profile.

The portrait drawn up of Jack was as a white male from the lower social classes, most likely the product of a broken home.

It was also thought he would have had a menial job but with some anatomical knowledge, something like a butcher, mortuary or medical examiner's assistant or hospital attendant.

Because of prolonged periods without human interaction, Jack would also have been socially inept

It is known that Mann was from an extremely deprived background. His father was absent for much of his upbringing and he had spent some time as a child in a workhouse.

Trow said: "I wanted to go beyond the myth of a caped man with a top hat and knife, and get to the reality, and the reality is simply that Jack was an ordinary man."

Trow makes another startling conjecture, that the Ripper killed another two women.

He believes Martha Tabram, found with 39 stab wounds to her body in Gunthorpe Street, was the first of Jack's victims, and Alice Mackenzie, brutally murdered eight months after the confirmed five killings, was his last.

The two women, along with Polly Nichols and Annie Chapman, would have been delivered to the Whitechapel mortuary in which Robert Mann worked.

After the killing of Polly Nichols, Jack's first recognised victim, Mann unlocked the mortuary for the police so they could examine the body and as such, was called as a witness in her inquest to help establish the cause of death.

Most damningly, he undressed Polly's body with his assistant, despite being under strict instructions from Inspector Spratling to not touch the body, and Trow suspects that this was an opportunity to admire his handiwork.

The Coroner, in his summation of Robert Mann's testimony, concluded that, "It appears the mortuary-keeper is subject to fits, and neither his memory nor statements are reliable."

Professor Laurence Alison, Forensic Psychologist at Liverpool University, who features in the documentary, said: "In terms of psychological profiling, Robert Mann is the one of the most credible suspects from recent years and the closest we may ever get to a plausible psychological explanation for these most infamous of Victorian murders."

Trow's is the latest in a long line of theories about who Jack the Ripper was. More than 100 suspects have been proposed over the years, including a member of the royal family, a doctor and even the artist Walter Sickert.

JACK THE RIPPER: KILLER REVEALED will be aired on the Discovery Channel on Sunday October 11 at 9pm. The accompanying book, Jack the Ripper: Quest for a Killer, is published by Pen & Sword.

St. Michael's mount

St. Michael's mount is located in Marazion Cornwall, about 9 miles from the Lizard peninsula. The castle of St. Michael's was dated back to the 12th century, and was owned by St Aubyn family since the 17th century. In the 1954 Francis St Aubyn, the 3rd Lord St Levan, gave St. Michael's mount and a large endowment fund to the national trust, retaining a 999-year lease for the family to live in the castle. While the national trust now handles and ensures the preservation and conservation of the mount, St Aubyn family still continue to live and manage the island as they have done since the 17th century.

I have taken some photos of the said mount and its surroundings.


This is how it looks like when its low tide, usually around 4pm in the afternoon. You can walk going to the mount and back to landing point at Marazoin.


These motorboats carry’s passenger during high tide, from the landing point in Marazion to the mount.


This is the small village of the mount.

New Watch

I saw these new watches on TV last night and I was so amazed with their features. The first one is a watch phone by LG, This is the first properly touch screen watch, video phone, and a text receiver as well. The features is very similar to a usual mobile phone.

The second one is a num8 children’s watch, this is use to monitor the location of your child via GPS, using a mobile phone or a computer to find your child’s precise location. It is very cleaver as it will inform you when your child is out of safety zone and if this watch is removed it will also send you an alert message on your mobile phone or through email. This is somehow a great product, but the problem with this is that it gets a signal through mobile phone coverage, so if your child is out of mobile coverage area, then it is impossible for you to track him or her down, also I don’t think this product should replace parental supervision.

Blogwalking to Increase Alexa Rank via Shoutmix Chat

Blogwalking is an activity of blogger to surf from one blog to the other blog, read its content, give comment, ask for link exchange or just leave comment in shout box. Blogwalking is very useful to promote our blog, increase Alexa rank and the most important is to make friendship among bloggers. Some people blogwalking just leave message in shoutbox in hoping the owner visit back to their blog, maybe like me, this is the easiest way instead giving comment on post because we should read the article first, but when we read any article we get something useful and add our knowledge.
There are some service that offer us free chat box or shout box such as Cbox, Shoutmix, Meebome, Oggix, Sbox, and others. The most famous shoutbox or chat box I know is Shoutmix. During blogwalking I found many shoutmix chat widget than other services. As I know that shoutmix is very simple, easy but very interesting. We can customize our chat widget so looks different than others.
To get your shoutmix chat widget just go to official shoutmix website and follow the instruction there. I have owned shoutmix chat widget two months ago. Everyday I blogwalking in order to promote and increase my Alexa rank. My Alexa rank reduce significantly about two months from over #2,509,787 to #105,899, I’m very happy with it.
But after one month since I owned shoutmix chat widget, I had a problem, my shoutmix chat widget couldn’t be loaded in my browser, I was very panic with this, then I tried to find out why this happenned?, finally I got the answer, that my IP address was supposed as post spammer, so shoutmix blocked/banned my IP address.
Why did shoutmix suppose that our IP address as post spammer?. Shoutmix will suppose us as spammer if you post very often in other shoutmix chat with the same post or you use program auto blogwalking or crawler to post messages. Auto blogwalking or crawler will start posting a message with initial shoutmix chat url widget, like mine is http://www4.shoutmix.com/?hasanchat then go to other link blog who has posted in that widget to find other shoutmix url.
I was very sad when my IP address get banned/blocked, my browser couldn’t load shoutmix chat widget even worst my blog url also blocked, so I couldn’t leave or post message in other blogs. Eventually, to avoid using my IP address I tried blogwalking with IP proxy and of course it worked, I could load again shoutmix chat widget, you can get IP proxy from http://aliveproxy.com/, find Anonymous proxy, then set your browser with this proxy.
The last problem one, I still couldn’t leave/post message in other shoutmix chat widget with my blog url, so I tried to find out url redirection like tiny url or short url service but sometime with these url redirection we still cannot post. Finally I tried to make my old blog irfannafiskid.co.cc which hosted in byethost to redirect to this blog with this code in header tag.
