What was that football-size chunk of ice that dropped out of the clear blue sky Sunday afternoon and tore through Bill Snyder's pear tree, startling several neighbors?

Frozen lavatory waste leaking from a passing airplane?

A state-record hailstone?

An unusual atmospheric ice formation from conditions caused by global warming?

Something from a flying saucer?

A sign from God?

All of the above have been suggested as answers to the strange worldwide phenomenon of unusually large pieces of ice falling from clear skies.

Snyder, 52, who lives in the Cobblestone Court development near Neffsville, doesn't know what to think.

Around noon Sunday, the behavioral health therapist was sitting in the family's kitchen, working on a computer, when he heard a "thump" outside, he said.

His dog stood up. A neighbor's dog started to bark.

Snyder went to the window and looked outside. There, on the ground about 60 feet away, was a round block of ice next to the pear tree. Leaves were still fluttering downward.

Two horses collapsed and died in the parade ring in front of astonished onlookers at Newbury racecourse, with an electrical fault suspected to be the cause.

The case is being probed by the British Horseracing Authority, who have announced a full investigation.

The horses, Fenix Two and Marching Song, were being paraded before the first race when they fell to the ground for reasons yet to be explained.

The racecourse later announced that the remainder of the day's racing had been abandoned as a precaution.

"This is a very sad day and our thoughts are with all the connections of the two horses who died," racecourse joint-managing director Stephen Higgins said in a statement.

Namibia: Man sues villagers over 'mysterious' creature link

A resident of Okaku village who had his homestead ransacked by the police two years ago in an effort to track down 'mysterious' creatures is claiming monitory compensation from villagers who are accusing him of witchcraft. Joel Uusiku is allegedly demanding N$100,000 through the traditional authority following allegations from numerous villagers that he is practicing witchcraft and is the owner of the mysterious creatures that have been terrorising Okaku villagers for the past couple of years.

In November 2009, Oshana Police and Nature conservation officers searched traditional huts and buildings on Uusiku's property after villagers tracking down the creatures claimed the footprints showed that the animals were being safeguarded at his home.

Although police officials came back empty-handed and cleared Uusiku of the allegations, the villagers unleashed their wrath on him and to date are linking him to the alleged witchcraft-related bloodsucking creatures. The defamation of character file at the traditional authorities comes in the wake of reports that the carcass of yet another mysterious creature was found at Okaku village over the weekend.

We're used to hearing screams at theme parks. But that usually stems from riding the roller coasters or reading the nutrition facts of the food... not from seeing ghosts.

However, that's exactly what's been happening recently at a popular theme park in England called Thorpe Park.

Not long after they broke ground on new water ride called Storm Surge, construction workers began noticing objects being moved without anyone touching them.

As the project moved forward, things got even scarier. Workers started reporting seeing ghosts around the construction site... including that of a headless monk.

Arizona desert UFO 'morphs' into two lights


Examiner

An Arizona witness reports an encounter on a lonely desert road with a red orb as close as six feet just west of Congress after midnight on May 19, 2010, according to February 5, 2011, testimony from the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) witness reporting database.

The witness was three miles west of Congress when a light first thought to be a helicopter was spotted after pulling over and getting out of the vehicle.

"It was a red light intermittently beaming a brilliant, focused white light down to the ground as if to be looking for someone or something, and I thought what or who would be way out there, and why there were no strobe I.D. lights on the helicopter," the witness stated.

A real white knuckle ride: 'Headless monk' seen by workmen forces Thorpe Park in UK to relocate water slide

Mon, 07 Feb 2011 16:31 UTC
A headless monk, a sudden chill, objects moving of own accord.

A new ride at an amusement park? No, the strange, seemingly paranormal, behaviour was experienced by workmen building a water ride at Thorpe Park, one of the country's biggest theme parks.

There were reports of workers feeling like someone was watching over their shoulder and sudden cold feelings being experienced.

As a result of the ghostly sightings, and fears that an ancient burial ground has been disturbed, the project was moved to another site.
