On Friday evening November 13, 2009, I was driving home from Harrisburg toward Newport, PA on Route 322 West. I was between the Watts and Midway exits. Above the mountain prior to the Midway exit, I saw what I thought was the moon behind the clouds.
Then, I noticed that there was more that one light. The size of the lights that I saw made me think that they might have come from people spotting for deer.
I realized that it wasn't the moon nor hunters, when I saw five or six lights in a row. The lights were above the clouds, so they could not have been people spotting for deer.
I liken the size of the lights to be the size of large spot-lights. They were not bright like spot-lights. The colors were pale blue, white, and pale red.
On November 6, 2009, at approximately 5:30 PM, my son David and I went out of the house to observe the aircraft that were flying over and creating all the noise. We saw about 20 fighters jets buzzing the skies of our town. This has never happened in the four years we have live here.
It was quite scary, because the jets looked like a bunch of angry bees. We watched for about 10 minutes, and went back into the house convinced they were playing some war games.
About 5 minutes later Mary's car pulled into the driveway. I took her mail out to her, as I pickup her mail from her postal box. Phyllis was with Mary, and both ladies stepped out of the car to observe the planes that were making all the noise.
My son David pointed to the northeast, and said "What is that?"
Location of Sighting: Garndiffaith, Pontypool, Torfaen, South Wales.
Date of Sighting: 08112009
Time: 12.30am Sunday 8th 2009
Witness Statement: At12.30am I was checking on my two boys who were asleep when something made me look out of their window, as I moved the curtains I noticed what I thought was a plane coming over the houses opposite, there seemed something unusual about it. As it got nearer I could see it was very large and shaped like a triangle with three orange lights, two at the bottom and one on the top, I was so surprised by this, I ran into our other bedroom were my wife was, and got her to look out at it. This is when we saw the second object, following in the same southerly direction, the lights were not flashing and there was no sound of engines running as by this time I had opened the window to have a better look.

Time was for 2 hours between 6:30pm CST(Central Standard Time) to 8:45pm. Place is Tira, Texas 75482...that's 16 miles north of Sulphur Springs. This area is about half-way between Dallas and Texarcana in Hopkins County. Our house is on FM1536 which is off HWY19 and about 2 miles from Cooper Damn. Sky is real clear with hardly any humidity, no clouds, cold, with no wind.
I like to go outside and watch/search the skies after dark to see what everything looks like. Having done this so often, I become familiar with overhead airline flight patterns, random small planes, occasional helicopters, their shapes, colors, sounds, and usual flight patterns and motions...and their height in the sky. I also see many meteors and unexplained sights than most just because I go out sometimes more than once a night, if weather permits. Now, the story I'm going to tell you is true and I will try to give specific details. I have no good binoculars, telescope, or digital camera, so I cannot document my story except for the fact that tonight my 19 year old son witnessed most of this with me.

Keesler confirms jet training
Pascagoula - The boom that rattled windows in Pascagoula and Moss Point, swamped police phone lines and brought entire neighborhoods of people out of their homes to see what was happening was almost as much a mystery Wednesday as it was Tuesday night when it happened.
Keesler Air Force base told city police around 8:45 p.m. Tuesday the boom was caused by military jets on a training exercise in the Gulf, but that the jets were not from Keesler.
On Wednesday security at the base reconfirmed the jets had contacted the tower Tuesday night and were told there was a training exercise.
But what jets, and whose jets were flying at supersonic speeds over the Gulf at night?
A basketball-sized chunk of ice crashed through the roof of a family's Colorado home after apparently falling from an airplane passing overhead. Danelle Hagan and her 9-year-old daughter were at home in Brush on Saturday when they heard the kitchen ceiling come crashing down. They were not injured.
"I hear a huge, what sounded like an explosion. And I look over and my kitchen is basically in shambles," Hagan told KMGH-TV in Denver. "It was very terrifying."
The Federal Aviation Administration was sending investigators to the home to investigate whether the ice came from an airplane. The Hagans put some of the ice in their freezer.
FAA spokesman Mike Fergus said Wednesday the ice chunk appears to be "Rime ice," which can build up on the outside of a plane's fuselage when it flies through cold and wet air.

Liberal - - The 2-inch-diameter gun-metal black rock that 10-year-old Chandler Harp found Saturday in his Liberal backyard traveled a long way to get there.
"There's no question in my mind whatsoever that what they have is a meteorite," said Don Stimpson of Haviland, a biophysicist who owns the Kansas Meteorite Museum and Nature Center on U.S. 54/400 near Greensburg.
A fast moving meteor lit up the night skies over most of Utah just after midnight Wednesday. Moments later, the phones lit up at KSL as people across the state called to tell us what they saw and ask what it was.
Utahns are still talking Wednesday about what scientists are calling a "remarkable midnight fireball." The source of all the excitement was basically a rock, falling from space. When a meteor enters the atmosphere, it gives off a lot of heat and light.
Folks at the Clark Planetarium say this rock was big--between the size of a microwave and washer-dryer unit.

"There is no more important struggle for American democracy than ensuring a diverse, independent and free media. Free Press is at the heart of that struggle." Bill Moyers
"This is, in theory, still a free country, but our politically correct, censorious times are such that many of us tremble to give vent to perfectly acceptable views for fear of condemnation. Freedom of speech is thereby imperiled, big questions go undebated, and great lies become accepted, unequivocally as great truths." Simon Heffer in The Daily Mail, 7 June 2000
"The only security of all is in a free press. The force of public opinion cannot be resisted when permitted freely to be expressed. The agitation it produces must be submitted to. It is necessary, to keep the waters pure." Thomas Jefferson to Lafayette, 1823
"A cantankerous press, an obstinate press, a ubiquitous press, must be suffered by those in authority in order to preserve the right of the people to know.": Murray I. Gurfein
