I recently saw a TV news report saying that Dallas has locked away so many prisoners who are now being exonerated with new DNA testing, that they have a special police unit working on this problem. Some of these innocent men have been in prison for decades.

As the convict singer Leadbelly opined so long ago in his song "The Midnight Special:" "If you ever go to Houston" (although it seems to be Dallas now), you better act right.

This video from January of 2012 has just surface. It shows unidentified lights over Hong Kong at the same time that an unusual sound is being recorded. There is no reason to believe that the video is hoaxed. While the sounds are similar to others recorded elsewhere, they do not appear to be a precise match to any recording in our files, meaning that this is probably not a dubbed video. The lights could be a blimp at high altitude, but at three in the morning, the greater likelihood seems to be an unknown object. This is the only known video that associates strange sounds and unknown lights. To watch Jaime Maussan’s Third Millennium report with blow-ups of the object, click here.

Researchers have found evidence of antibiotics–one of them a suspected human carcinogen–in seafood imported into the United States and purchased from grocery store shelves. The antibiotic nitrofuranzone, a probable carcinogen, was found in two of the samples–one from a farm in India and the other from Thailand. Both samples were 28 and 29 times higher than the amount allowed by the FDA.
