 <title>Good photo from Berkshire in the UK</title>
 <link>http://www.unknowncountry.com/out-there/good-photo-berkshire-uk</link>
 <description> &lt;img width=&quot;140&quot; height=&quot;93&quot; align=&quot;left&quot; src=&quot;http://www.unknowncountry.com/sites/default/files/images/UKUFO.jpg&quot; class=&quot;uc-inlineimage&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; /&gt;According to leading UFO investigator Nick Pope, this is a strong UFO photo. While it would not be difficult to photoshop, the witness appears to be sincere. Unless proven otherwise, this is a probable unknown, and another reminder of just how many photographs and videos of genuine unknowns there are these days. Will there ever be a final moment when they land and the mystery is solved? &lt;br /&gt; </description>

 <title>Where the Fattest Americans Are</title>

    &lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt; What region in the US is the fattest? We used to assume it was the South, but Southern researchers dispute that--they say it&#039;s the Midwest.&lt;br /&gt;
Statistician George Howard says, &amp;quot;The obesity epidemic is overwhelming the US, and there&#039;s this strong perception that Mississippi and Alabama are number one and number two in obesity--fighting for fattest place. We were thinking since people living in the South are generally more hypertensive and have higher rates of diabetes and stroke, it would be the fattest region, but when we looked at our data, people in the South were really not the fattest.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;/div&gt;

 <title>Revolt Spreads in Brazil as Turkish Crisis Continues</title>

    &lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt; Mass demonstrations are sweeping Brazil as the Turkish prime minister appears ready to call in the army to bring a violent end to protests in that country. The Arab Spring began in the wheat fields of Russia and the Ukraine in 2008, when both countries embargoed exports due to extreme drought conditions and plummeting crop yields. Across the middle east, the price of wheat based products immediately skyrocketed. Now, in 2013, the region remains in turmoil. Turkey and now Brazil have become the next countries to experience powerful demonstrations, Turkey when Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan announced that one of the last public spaces in the center of Istanbul would be handed over to developers. &lt;/div&gt;
  &lt;/div&gt;

 <title>Massive Worldwide Bee Decline Continues as Pesticide Companies Ramp Up the PR</title>

    &lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt; On May 13 Unknowncountry.com reported that bee colonies in the United States have been devastated, and now similar devastation is being &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/science-environment-22861651&quot;&gt;reported &lt;/a&gt;from the United Kingdom. If colonies continue to collapse at this rate, many primary food sources are going to become scarce due to lack of pollination. Meanwhile, the purveyors of Neonicotinoid pesticides such as Monsanto and Bayer are creating &#039;study groups&#039; that appear to be intended to find ways to save the bees without them having to accept bans of their pesticide. The US&amp;nbsp;has no plans to ban the substances, but the EU is considering doing so. &lt;/div&gt;
  &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;

 <title>UFO Flashes Past in News Report</title>

    &lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
    &lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt; A UFO&amp;nbsp;flashes past at 5:58 in this edition of the Keiser Report, an economics program on the English Language RT network. The program was being taped in&amp;nbsp;London on June 13. Nobody involved appears to have been aware of the object, which moved past the window at a speed that seems far higher than would be the case with a bird. It is too large to be an insect. To see it, you need to look closely at the sky in the right half of the screen between 5:58 and 5:59.&amp;nbsp; Thanks for this to a sharp-eyed Unknowncountry.com reader. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

 <title>UK doctor snaps a most unusual shot of the moon...or something near it.</title>
 <link>http://www.unknowncountry.com/out-there/uk-doctor-snaps-most-unusual-shot-moonor-something-near-it</link>
 <description> Sussex resident John Raymond snapped this shot of a &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/news/4967283/Dr-Who-fan-stunned-to-see-tardis-flying-near-a-full-moon.html&quot;&gt;strange object&lt;/a&gt; when he was taking a picture of the full moon. For Dr. Who fans, it bears a curious resemblance to the Tardis, Dr. Who&#039;s time machine.&lt;br /&gt; </description>

 This video taken over Lough in Northern Ireland displays a well documented but infrequently recorded characteristic, which is that the UFO will react to the observer, as if it is well aware that it is being watched. &lt;br /&gt; </description>

 <title>Uknowncountry Weekender: Life Experiences are Passed Down in Our Genes</title>

    &lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt; A startling new study has answered a huge question: do our life experiences enter our genetic code? The incredible answer is, &#039;yes.&#039; Your likes, dislikes and prejudices--you may think they originated with your own life experiences, but most of them came from your ancestors, via your GENES. Life experiences not only affect your genes, your mother&#039;s genes, and  your grandmother&#039;s genes, etc. While you may fee like a unique individual, the fact is that your peronality is largely gift your long line of maternal ancestors (stretching all he way back to the FIRST female homo sapien, who may have been &amp;quot;Lucy?&amp;quot;)&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;/div&gt;
  &lt;/div&gt;

 <title>Whistleblowers and UFO Secrets</title>
 <link>http://www.unknowncountry.com/special/whistleblowers-and-ufo-secrets</link>
 <description> EXPLOSIVE&amp;nbsp;DISCUSSION&amp;nbsp;BETWEEN&amp;nbsp;WHITLEY&amp;nbsp;AND&amp;nbsp;LINDA&amp;nbsp;MOULTON&amp;nbsp;HOWE! In 2002,&amp;nbsp;Gary McKinnon obtained information from NASA computers that strongly suggested that the US was heavily involved in UFO related activities off-planet. Whitley&amp;nbsp;Strieber interviewed him on Dreamland in 2003 and got the same story. This week, Whitley and Linda Moulton&amp;nbsp;Howe take a look back at the Gary McKinnon disclosures and ask the question, could one of the new breed of whistleblowers come forward from within the secret government itself, as have Bradley Manning and Edward Snowdon, and provide the world with access to UFO secrets? If so, how might such a thing come about, and what might be disclosed?&lt;br /&gt; </description>

&lt;br /&gt;
Bradley Manning and now Edward Snowden have risked their lives and their freedom to disclose official secrets. Why? Is it right or wrong, good or bad? And what does it mean for the future? The US&amp;nbsp;Constitution does not specifically guarantee a right of privacy, but the ACLU has filed a lawsuit claiming that the NSA&#039;s Prism program is a violation of the 4th&amp;nbsp;Amendment right to protection from unreasonable searches and seizures. &lt;br /&gt;
