I do some groundskeeping near my Church, and I found four strange "masses" of something in the grass under some trees. They were mostly white, w/ a "coral" or a fine "cauliflower" texture. One of them was pretty viscous, but the others turned out to be sort of a transparent jelly on the inside/underneath, and some were interspersed w/ masses of black particles that made me think of caviar or something texture-wise. I wasn't sure if they were attached to the ground or not.

I know that that's a bizarre description. I wish that I'd had a camera on me, but I felt that I ought to get them off the lawn before some kids touched them or something. I wonder if maybe it was "dog vomit" or something merely disgusting and bacteria-attracting. In the last week or so, we've had increased rainfall, and the mushrooms are really taking off.

Does any of that ring a bell? Thanks. : )

It has been discovered that there are flying rods throughout the world, they travel to fast for the human eye to see.
They do get caught on camera and video shots.
What are they? where do they come from?

Last night, at around 3 am I woke up to this loud noise coming from my kitchen. I woke up instantly and listened to the sound of something hitting my kitchen counter. I woke my husband up and we both walked to our kitchen while the noise continues. The noise all of a sudden stops as we got about 4 feet away from the counter. There was no one or nothing in sight. It got quiet, too quiet. I was so afraid to go back to sleep and I turned all the lights on in my house.

I am curious, anything similiar happen to anyone? Or anything out of the ordinary and frightening ever happen to anyone?

I live in New Jersey, and it seems that every time there is a meteor shower visible to this region the clouds block my view. Tonight the Persiad meteor shower was suppose to be visible from 9pm to 12, yet, when I went out to look - it was cloudy. Does this happen to you? Just venting! Thanks.

Have dug a 600 feet depth borewell in Coimbatore(India) in my land.
Then when inserting the submersible pump we find a block at
300 feet.
What could this be? Can rocks move around at this depth and re-block borewell shafts as soon as the drill is taken out?
Any solutions to this problem?

But doesn't that work for only one direction?, I mean here on earth if look at the Andromeda galaxy we are seeing the galaxy what it looked like 2.3 million years ago, because it takes the light time to travel to our eyes. If we were to move away from the galaxy at the speed of light then time would seem to stop because we would be moving with the light and thus we would always see it at 2.3 millions light years away, right?, but if we begin to travel toward the galaxy instead well now are we not seeing the galaxy at a younger age, because we started at 2.3 m light years away but now were only 2 million light years away, now 1 million, etc. so are we not in effect going back in time not stopping it?

a^(n)-b^(n)=c^(2)-d^(2)
12^(3)-10^(3)=27^(2)-1^(2)
or
12^(3)-10^(3)=3^(6)-1^(6)
this is the smallest ramanujan number 1729 i.e
12^(3)+1^(3)=9^(3)+10^(3).
can u generate other ramanujam numbers from this information?

There's really only one thing I would like to know, if we did fake it then how did the mirror get there? What mirror you ask?, the mirror that the apollo astronauts placed there so we could fire a laser beam at it and have it reflect back to us, how else could the human race pin point the exact distance away the moon is to the last millionth of a millimeter, and also that the moon is moving away from us 1 inch a year. So if we didn't go, how did the mirror get there, (I think it's safe to assume no one is that good with a slingshot)

Just an odd random question...do you have a favorite? I always liked Whale Sharks and Hammerheads. The first are rather cute I think and the other are pretty cool looking. ; )

let S=1+2+4+8+16+32.....-----(1)
i.e. S-1=2+4+8+16+.....
i.e. S-1=2*(1+2+4+8+16+....)
from (1)
S-1=2S
therefore....
S=-1 ??????????????????????????????????????????

What does a real forensic investigator think of watching shows like CSI? Is the show more glamorous? How about the science...do you ALWAYS agree with methods and conclusions? Hmm...I wonder...?
