Remember The Mystery Hum Over Hull? Now There's The Strange Siren!

Remember the mystery hum heard over a large swathe of Hull and East Yorkshire last year?

We featured a recording of the strange sound on This is Hull in October amid speculation it could be everything from a Russian bomber to a UFO.

Now, readers Daniel and Natasha have sent us this video of what they describe as strange noises and lights recorded over Boothferry Estate and First Lane, Hessle, at around 10pm last night.

Says Daniel: "It was a high-pitched whirring noise, constant but it would move away very quickly and come back.

"There was nothing to be seen by the naked eye but as soon as I looked through the camera on my phone, two lights could be seen, one of which changed shape and size. I looked around to see if it could be a reflection of some kind, or lens flare, but it wasn't."

Mountlake Terrace, US: We know what it is, but how did mystery object take flight?

The thin plate that hit a home seems to be from a dishwasher, but how it took flight is still up in the air.

Mystery solved. Part of it, anyway.

The metal plate that seemed to fall from the sky and hit a Mountlake Terrace fourplex recently appears to be the thin front panel of a dishwasher.

How it got high enough in the air to hit the second-floor roof with the noise and force the residents say it did, however, is not readily apparent.

"Dishwashers don't fly. At least I'm pretty sure of that," said Mark Kauffmann, who was sitting in the living room around 7 p.m. Feb. 9 with his wife, Theresa, when the object hit the roof.

The Kauffmanns believed it must have come from an aircraft, so they called Paine Field immediately after the object hit. Officials took it seriously, showing up quickly to pick up the panel, she said.

Their subsequent investigation, however, determined the object did not come from a plane, airport director Dave Waggoner said.

Washington State: Was that a flying saucer hovering over east Vancouver?

Several residents report strange object Sunday evening

No joke: Several residents in far east Vancouver reported seeing a saucer-shaped object Sunday evening, hovering low in the sky.

The object had such bright green and red lights that it drew several residents out of their homes off Southeast 192nd Avenue in the Clear Meadows neighborhood at about 6:45 p.m..

"It was the weirdest thing I've ever seen," said Vancouver resident Gary Moore.

Moore and another resident, Kathy Plamondon, contacted the The Columbian to report seeing the alleged unidentified flying object, which they say did not appear to be the planes they typically see flying out of Pearson Field.

Dispatchers with 911 on Monday confirmed at least one report of an object sighting in east Vancouver, but referred the call on to the National UFO Reporting Center in Seattle.

Washington, US: Mystery object falls out of sky in Mountlake Terrace

A thin sheet of metal hit a Mountlake Terrace home, but it doesn't appear to be from an aircraft.

Earlier this month, Theresa Kauffmann and her husband, Mark, were sitting in their living room when they heard an unusual noise outside.

It was kind of a repeating, whooshing sound -- "whoowhoowhoowhoo," is how Theresa Kauffmann described it.

"It got louder, louder and it got really loud," she said.

Finally, "it went 'BANG!' into the roof and then it slid down and it banged onto the deck."

The "it" was a thin panel of metal, nearly square with straight edges, about 23 by 18 inches. It was shiny black on one side, shiny white on the other.

Her neighbor was outside and heard the object fall, though he didn't see it, Kauffmann said.

An Artist's Instant Mystery

Critics have developed many theories about how Ted Serios' 'thoughtographs' - on display at University of Maryland, Baltimore County - were created

The black-and-white Polaroid photo shows a building tilting precipitously to the right. Above what appears to be a picture window, a curving line of type clearly spells out "The Old Gold Store."

But when Ted Serios snapped that shot on May 13, 1965, he was sitting inside a hotel room, and the camera was pointed directly at his face.

More than 46 years later, there's no consensus as to whether what Serios described as a "thoughtograph" is an example of a genuine paranormal event, or if it ranks among history's most clever cons.

Pictures of a mysterious creature surfacing from Lake Windermere have been hailed as the best ever sighting of the English Loch Ness Monster, or "Bownessie".

The photograph, which shows an object with three humps breaching the surface of the lake, is said to be the best evidence yet of what some claim is a monster lurking beneath the depths.

It was taken on a camera phone by Tom Pickles, 24, while kayaking on the lake as part of a team building exercise with his IT company, CapGemini, last Friday.

Mr Pickles said he saw an animal the size of three cars speed past him on the lake and watched it for about 20 seconds.

He said: "It was petrifying and we paddled back to the shore straight away. At first I thought it was a dog and then saw it was much bigger and moving really quickly at about 10mph.

"Each hump was moving in a rippling motion and it was swimming fast.

How's That for a Speculation? How UFO Sightings Continue to Impact Shares of Lockheed Martin and Boeing

Now I'm no conspiracy nut, but it's pretty much an established fact that UFOs are here, and the only possible explanation for them is that inter-dimensional beings have teleported to our universe and worked out a deal by which they share their technology with us in exchange for access to our reproductive organs.

It's also pretty much agreed upon that the corporate benefactors of this technology are companies like Boeing and Lockheed Martin, both of which use their passenger jet divisions as cover for their more sinister pursuits, particularly their reverse engineered aircraft that they deploy to game the stock market.

For investors, this presents a unique opportunity. You see, there is a direct correlation between the spotting of UFOs and the share prices for both Lockheed and Boeing.

How? Simple. When a UFO sighting makes the news, social mood shifts towards the paranoid, thereby driving up the share prices of the very military-industrial complex companies we rely on for air defense.

Albuquerque, US: Police Investigate Cause Of Boy's Mysterious Death

Police further delved into the mysterious death of Jonah Nelson, 8, on Thursday morning.

Authorities said the boy's mother called 911 after she found her son lying on his bed unconscious.

Jonah's mother said he could have suffocated on the plastic bed coverings while sleeping. The boy had a history of bed-wetting so his parents put plastic on the bed and pillow.

When the police searched his room, they found that those plastic coverings were partially off.

Investigators also said that Jonah had bruises and cuts on his knuckles and his underwear was on backwards.
