Hira Ratan Manek is a 64-year-old mechanical engineer from India who says he’s survived on only liquids and sunlight for eight years. He’s now in the U.S. being studied by NASA, so they can figure out how he does it.

Manek began disliking food in 1992, and in 1995, after a pilgrimage to the Himalayas, he stopped eating completely. His wife Vimla says, “Every evening he looks at the sun for one hour without batting an eyelid. It is his main food. Occasionally he takes coffee, tea or some other liquid.”

A year ago, NASA scientists verified that Manek had survived for 130 only on water. NASA wants to use his techniques to solve food storage and problems on space flights. They may also want to know how he can stare at the sun without being blinded.

Steven Aftergood of Secrecy News writes that on July 28, 1995, the General Accounting Office published a report on the Roswell Incident that said all the Roswell records had been destroyed. Now it’s been discovered that the CIA has destroyed the budget records for that period in Roswell also.

The records were demanded by New Mexico Congressman Stuart Schiff, now deceased. The report found that “some of the records concerning Roswell activities had been destroyed” and that “there was no information available regarding when or under what authority the records were destroyed.”

Horses have been found mutilated in the U.K. In one case, a dead female horse was slashed in the belly with a sharp instrument. There was hardly any blood in the field where she was found, although several gallons of blood had been drained from her body.

An injured colt was also found. Symbols were carved into his skin and chunks of skin and mane were removed and left in a stone circle that was constructed nearby. A total of 12 horse mutilations have taken place in the area. Stone circles and arrangements of sticks and branches have been left at the scenes. Some of the attacks were sexual.

A senate subcommittee on terrorism says Saudi Arabia is indoctrinating U.S. Muslims in terrorism. They say the Saudis plan to build hundreds of mosques in the U.S. in a bid to take control of Islam here, and that they’re also trying to indoctrinate U.S. soldiers and prisoners. There’s still no sign of Osama bin-Laden, but Iran has arrested 40 al-Qaeda members, including bin-Laden’s son.

The other major catch is the number 2 al-Qaeda official, Ayman Zawahiri. The terrorists captured in Iran include Egyptians, Iraqis, Jordanians, Kuwaitis, Kurds and Saudis, showing that al-Qaeda?s tentacles reach into many different countries.
