In her new diary A Mouse That Roars the Truth, Anne Strieber writes, “A small literary magazine has dared to take on a topic that the major media avoids: the truth about global warming. The fall issue of Granta called ‘The Overheating World’ is about what’s really happening to our Earth. As you read the following excerpts, think how different things would be if these stories were broadcast on the network news every night. But the Big Guys don’t want to annoy us or make us feel guilty, and they especially don’t want to annoy their advertisers, so spreading the most important news story of our time is left to the little guys.”

The mystery of the Eltanin antenna has finally been solved: it’s a sea sponge called Cladorhiza.

The “antenna” got its name from the USNS Eltanin, an ice breaking cargo ship launched by the U.S. Navy in 1957. On August, 29, 1964, while photographing the deep sea bottom West of Cape Horn, it took the famous Eltanin antenna photo, which has puzzled people for over 40 years.

The Cladorhiza is a dramatically-shaped sponge which resembles a microwave antenna. They’ve been described as “sponges with a long stem ending in ramifying roots, sunk deeply into the mud. The stem has nodes with four to six club-like appendages.”

UFOs were seen in Baghdad and Bahrain last week. The Bahrain UFO displayed strange lights for about a minute. Mohammed Jaffer al-Hajer was with six of his friends when they all noticed it. Al-Hajer taped the strange object on his digital video camera twice?once as it gave off a bright yellow light and again when it split in two before disappearing.

“We first noticed the strange light appear to the left of the Batelco tower in the village,” says al-Hajer. “We saw it again just above the tower when I reached for my camera and began to video tape it.” People in a nearby town also reported seeing the UFO around the same time. However, flight controllers in the Bahrain International Airport tower say the radar there didn?t register any abnormal activity at the time.

Over 26% of you said “I see catastrophe coming” or “I sense wonder coming.” Either way, you’re expecting a big change.
