The poster of the above video said this in his comments:
Spirit Orbs" are sometimes said to exist more densely around certain haunted regions or to be the spirits of departed loved ones. These types of orbs are sometimes said to have faces, often with discernable expressions and even of recognizable persons. Some feel the size of an orb indicates how great of an impact a life force had in its life time.
Another view of spirit orbs holds that they are non-human spirits, with blue and red orbs symbolizing angels and the devil respectively. Another interpretation of colors in orbs is sex differentiation -- blue for male spirits, and red or pink for female, or that they indicate what mood the spirit is in. If orbs are energy they should be emitting light. Spirit orbs are also felt by some to be curious friendly protectors, particularly of children.

1969 Humanoid Reports

Hello fans of TAL - I appreciate your visit. Today I provide a resource into the unknown - 131 `Humanoid' reports from just one year 1969. Classics all. A tease:
22.
Location. Domback, Angermanland Sweden
Date: January 1969
Time: evening
Gottfried Olsson was looking out the window of his home when he saw a strange humanoid standing on the side of the road. It appeared to be as big as a human and lighted. It was about the length and width as an ordinary human, having the shoulder part clearly marked, so was his lower part, somewhat like a box. Its head had dim contours and appeared hazy. It stood perfectly still for about 3 minutes radiating a strong red/white light except for a vertical blue line on the middle. Suddenly there was a brilliant flash and the figure disappeared.

Have Dogs Been Pets For 30,000 Years?

As science seems to push back further and further our `normalcy' of humans - this is a push back of at least 10K years earlier than dogs were thought to be domesticated. The real reason to read this however is to see the picture of the dogs skull and to know that he Was Buried With A Mastodon Bone In His Mouth. Links to more details and other science articles.
