The Ultimate Loch Ness Monster Live Cam, Scotland Pennsylvania Bigfoot Society, The Jersey Devil The Jersey Devil, the supposed mythical creature of the New Jersey Pinelands, has haunted New Jersey and the surrounding areas for the past 260 years. This entity has been seen by over 2,000 witnesses over this period. It has terrorized towns and caused factories and schools to close down, yet many people believe that the Jersey Devil is a legend, a mythical beast, that originated from the folklore of the New Jersey Pine Barrens. There are many different versions of the birth of the Jersey Devil. Another story placed the birth in Estelville, NJ. Burlington, NJ, also claims to be the birthplace of the Jersey Devil. There are many other versions of the legend. The first thing that ties the legends together is the name "Leeds". The origins provide some validity to the existence of the Jersey Devil, but the sightings are the most substantial pieces of evidence. From the pre 1909 era, few documented records of sightings still exist. It all started early Sunday morning, January 16, 1909.
NESRA - North East Sasquatch Researchers Association NESRA is an association of independent Bigfoot researchers and affiliated organizations who share strategies, theories, experiences and resources in a network, in hopes of discovering solid, scientific proof for the existence of the creatures known as Bigfoot or Sasquatch. While we encourage independent thought among our members, we want to stress that as a group, we do not subscribe to the idea that Bigfoot is anything other than a "flesh-and-blood", corporeal animal. Bigfoot or Sasquatch-type creatures may be rare, elusive and unusual, but they are in no way supernatural. At NESRA, we strive to provide a definitive source of information on all things Bigfoot. We will supply you with the latest news involving the ongoing search for these creatures as well as with some of the oldest and newest stories about these creatures plus eyewitness sightings and encounters. Your questions, comments, suggestions and ideas are welcome and will serve to further the effectiveness of NESRA.

Their presumptive existence has often been derived from anecdotal or other evidence considered insufficient by mainstream science. The status of cryptids on this list falls into six categories: Unconfirmed – cryptids whose existence is alleged but not demonstrated.Disputed – cryptids that have a body of evidence against their existence.Proposed [animal name] – cryptids with an alternative explanation accepted by the general scientific community.Extinct – animals that are generally believed to be extinct, but which cryptozoologists believe may have an extant relict population.Confirmed [animal name or cause] – animals once classified as cryptids but whose existence has now been confirmed.Hoax – cryptids once thought to be real but later conclusively proven to be hoaxes.

Lojong Lojong (Tib. བློ་སྦྱོང་,Wylie: blo sbyong) is a mind training practice in the Tibetan Buddhist tradition based on a set of aphorisms formulated in Tibet in the 12th century by Geshe Chekhawa. The practice involves refining and purifying one's motivations and attitudes. The fifty-nine or so slogans that form the root text of the mind training practice are designed as a set of antidotes to undesired mental habits that cause suffering. Prominent teachers who have popularized this practice in the West include Pema Chodron,[1] Ken McLeod, Alan Wallace, Chogyam Trungpa, Sogyal Rinpoche, Geshe Kelsang Gyatso, and the 14th Dalai Lama.[2] History of the practice[edit] Atiśa journeyed to Sumatra and studied with Dharmarakṣita for twelve years. A story is told that Atiśa heard that the inhabitants of Tibet were very pleasant and easy to get along with. The aphorisms on mind training in their present form were composed by Chekawa Yeshe Dorje (1101–1175 CE). The Root Text[edit] Slogan 1. 1. 2. 3. 4.
Ontario Sasquatch The British Columbia Scientific Cryptozoology Club British Columbia has been a fertile location for sightings of a bipedal hirsute hominid known colloquially as sasquatch. The name "sasquatch" was coined by J.W. Burns,an American schoolteacher living in BC, and is derived from a Chehalis word meaning wild man. Burns showed a tremendous interest in sasquatch starting from the 1920's, but he was not alone in his pursuit of date and information regarding this animal. Journalist Bruce McKelvie, whose personal papers on the subject reside in the BC Archives, was keenly interested in the subject as was the late former Mayor of North Vancouver, Charles Cates. They were joined in the 1950s by newspaper publisher John Green and Swiss immigrant Rene Dahinden. Green and Dahinden - until his death in 2001 - have spent 40 years in active investigation and research into the sasquatch phenomenon. The sasquatch is depicted in both male and female forms on a variety of totem poles of a host of First Nations bands. Recommended Reading:
