A Canadian woman in her 70s staying with a friend in a remote Vermont cottage had an unusual encounter that caused the two to flee their surroundings in the middle of the night - only to come within a few feet of a UFO at ground level.

A friend of the woman from Montreal approached me wanting to know if any of my readers or colleagues have heard of any similar encounters.

Flight DJ1370 was 10 minutes into its journey this afternoon (AEDT) when the 737 was struck "multiple times'' by lightning, a Virgin spokeswoman said.

The captain of the aircraft, carrying 117 passengers and six crew, made an immediate decision to turn back to Melbourne.

A strange humming noise has been giving villagers headaches and keeping them awake at night.

Since October the vibrating noise has been affecting people living around the Nest estate, Mytholmroyd.

The noise is worse at night and is causing pressure headaches and loss of sleep - but not everyone can hear it.

Glenys Sutcliffe, who lives on the estate, said: "Last night I woke up and it felt like the washing machine was on full pelt. The pressure is shocking.

Russia: Search for Yeti finds nothing....yet

The much anticipated search for the legendary Snowmen that have recently been sighted by hunters in the vast wilderness in the vicinity of the city of Kemerovo in Russia has failed to find anything. Researchers remain hopeful however and plan to return for another more thorough expedition.

Stories of 'Yeti' style creatures described as human-like with black/brown hair have circulated in this region of Siberia for centuries and with recent reports of hunters witnessing the creatures in an area known as the Azasskoy caves it was decided that a proper academic search should take place.

Full Description of Event/Sighting: On this evening, my husband and I were returning his 90 yr old mother to her home. It was mostly dark outside at the time we were around the Snowden St and Hamilton St area. I looked up and saw this UFO, thinking it was a plane. It was odd for a plane and I stared at it. Just then my mother-in-law asked, what was the thing up in the sky?, to which I said, "A plane". She stated it couldn't be as it didn't move, which I had to agree to. It just sat still in the air. My husband was too busy driving to pay attention.

UFO

US: I-495, Long Island Expressway, Long Island, New York - Disc-Shaped Object

Posted: April 1, 2009

Date: March 27, 2009
Time: 6:30 a.m. to 6:45 a.m.

I too have seen something strange along this same route as I head to the Sunrise Highway exit weekday mornings from 6:30am to 6:45. Friday March 27 I was in the passenger seat as me and my girlfriend were driving. The sky was crystal clear, no clouds at all in this direction, no planes either and for some odd reason there are never planes in this direction at this time in the morning in this clear sky. I saw this a flat white disc shaped object in the middle of the sky just sitting there. I studied it for a while thinking maybe it might be a cloud, but why out of this whole clear sky would there be one tiny cloud just floating there. So I figured it wasn't a cloud. I thought maybe a plane or helicopter, but no wings and no propeller.
