Bigfoot Evidence Delayed ???

Bigfoot

One thing is for sure: people just love fairy tales and myths, and when something like the capturing of Bigfoot hits the newspapers, people just go crazy. For a good businessman, it is easy to see the financial potential in such a popular subject and when two such men put their minds together, the outcome of such a publicity stunt is taken to whole new level.

Matt Whitton, a retired Clayton County police officer and Rick Dyer, a tow truck operator, both running the Bigfoottracker.com Web site, claim to be the first people ever to have actually caught a Bigfoot; dead, but non the less a Bigfoot. They immediately alerted the media, telling everyone about their trip in the woods of northern Georgia, where the corpse was found.

"Everyone who has talked down to us is going to eat their words," predicted Matt Whitton a few days back.

The two explained that the body is kept inside a freezer in order to make sure that its state will not get worse and they even released a photo of it, many calling it a bad Halloween costume, a gorilla or a woolen rug. The official presentation has been delayed several times, with a series of explanations such as the extended time needed until the DNA results come in, then the necessity of a second round of DNA tests and now, apparently, they must wait for the arrival of two scientists from Russia.

The Web site offers details about the upcoming tests, which will be conducted by "a team of scientists including a molecular biologist, an anthropologist, a paleontologist and other scientists." The tests will demand at least two months of analysis and will take place at an undisclosed location, in order to make sure that the findings will be secure and that there will be no intrusions.

Even though the story seems to be far from the real deal, there are still some people who confirm it. One of them, and maybe not the most believable of the bunch, is Mr. Tom Biscardi, a well known Bigfoot hunter and owner of the Web site Searchingforbigfoot.com. He is linked to a series of Bigfoot hoaxes, as he claimed on several occasions to soon disclose real proof about Bigfoot’s existence. Regarding the present situation, he talked to the media about the Bigfoot’s body, which he actually got to see.

"They showed me the body. They took me to the area where they found it - -- it took a day and a half to get there. I got to be honest, when I first saw it I hated to see it in that state it was in. I wanted to capture one so the world could see it walking. I guess this is the next best thing for the time being," said Biscardi.

The trouble with such a marketing strategy is that it gets old really quickly and if this is indeed nothing more than a joke, they will soon run out of “proof” and the people will grow tired of the charade, turning their heads to the next big story.

Bigfoot Press Conference - 'DNA Evidence' ???

Bigfoot DNA shows creature is advanced form of man

Genetic testing of the Georgia Bigfoot confirms that the creature is an advanced form of man, and suggests that the human race is no longer evolution’s greatest achievement.

The findings were revealed at a press conference held in Palo Alto, California today by the Searching for Bigfoot company, which is representing the two Georgians who discovered the body of the creature two months ago.

After most of the reporters left the press conference,
Biscardi happened to mention that
the contents of the Bigfoot's stomach contained human remains,
indicating that they may enjoy serving man.

“DNA results reveal that the creature known as ‘Bigfoot’ evolved from modern man,” announced Searching for Bigfoot’s CEO Tom Biscardi. “If you think about it, it makes sense. We are not well-adapted to our environment, and cannot survive cold weather without the aid of clothing and heated shelter. We suck. Bigfoot rules. Deal with it.”

Biscardi suggested negotiation with the Bigfoot race before the creatures evolve to the point where they decide they don’t need humans around anymore.

“Without a preemptive peace treaty, we could be toast,” he warned the assembled reporters. “At the rate the Bigfoot creatures are advancing, they may develop bulletproof skin, and then we’d be screwed because our firearms would be ineffective. That would then leave only nuclear weapons for our defense, and that might cause them to mutate into an even more highly-evolved life form. And Bigfoot regime change won’t work, because we don’t know which one of them is in charge. So we must negotiate.”

Creationists scoffed at Biscardi’s assessment of possible Bigfoot Armageddon, and said that if the Bigfoot race is indeed more highly-evolved than man it simply means they are God’s chosen people.

"Bigfoot" DNA Analysis at The Cabana Hotel

Guess what folks--people have found the elusive Bigfoot! And he's totally dead! And some guys in Georgia who found him in the woods are holding a press conference in California today to announce their discovery!

Yes, that is all true, according to Searching for Bigfoot.

The creature was found by Matthew Whitton (AKA Gary Parker) and Rick Dyer (residents of Georgia) in the woods in northern Georgia. (The exact location is being kept secret to protect the creatures.)

DNA testing was done on the body of Bigfoot, which looks like "it is part human and part ape-like." Bigfoot also walks upright. Apparently, the Bigfoot hunters spotted several more creatures on the day that they found this dead Bigfoot. (So do we call them Bigfeet?)

Ok, we can't even believe we're writing this right now. But the press conference announcing the DNA findings will be held at the Crowne Plaza Cabana Hotel in Palo Alto from noon to 1pm today. Sadly, only credentialed members of the press are allowed.

It's been a busy summer for this hotel. This is also the hotel where a case of hotel sick struck in early July. Ew...let's hope they keep the Bigfoot DNA away from the guests.

Alicia Sacramone falls !!!

Alicia Sacramone is sad face of these Games

Every morning, as the bus bringing me into the Olympic Green complex travels past the tennis stadium where the sport's biggest stars are playing this week, I wonder if Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal have any idea what it is like to be Alicia Sacramone.

Her life is not like their lives, that's for sure.
The image of Alicia Sacramone shaking her head in disbelief and fighting tears after her poor performance in the women's gymnastics team finals is the face of these Games so far. She blamed herself for the Americans' losing the gold medal to China, which was a little too harsh, while realizing she would "have to live with my mistakes."

She's an Ivy League student with a future beyond gymnastics, but this was her one-and-only Olympic opportunity after four years of buildup. She blew it, and she knew it, acknowledging in various interviews that "pressure" and "nerves" got to her.
Sunday's individual vault finals will offer Alicia Sacramone a chance to leave Beijing with some better feelings, but the silver medal from the team competition will taunt her indefinitely.
And this is it, for a 20-year-old gymnast.

There's no U.S. Open next week for Alicia Sacramone, as there is for Federer and Nadal. There's no NBA season coming up for her, as there is for Jazz players Carlos Boozer and Deron Williams and their U.S. basketball teammates. Those guys may have gold-medal ambitions and enhanced endorsement potential, but their careers do not revolve around the Olympics - in contrast to the thousands of other athletes whose pursuits are totally defined by what happens during these 16 days in Beijing.

"Olympic people usually have a large portion of their life invested in that dream," said Rich Gordin, a Utah State University sports psychologist who has worked extensively with top-tier athletes.

Some of them have more at stake than others, obviously. The proof is in the NBC-driven schedule of these Games, staging Michael Phelps' swimming events and the gymnastics meets in the mornings in Beijing, prime time in the States. Phelps is capitalizing, coming through spectacularly in his quest for a record eight gold medals.

Yet whether their performances result in Wheaties box-style adulation as Kerri Strug and the other American women's gymnasts received after winning the gold in 1996 or the commentary from those who believe Sacramone "choked" when she failed to mount the balance beam on her first try and fell again during her floor exercise routine, there's a recovery process for every athlete.

"Gold medal or no medal, you still have to go through it," Gordin once told me.
Experts say that in the wake of a major competition, athletes will experience any of these strong emotions: euphoria, anger or depression.

I would guess you can rule out euphoria in Alicia Sacramone's case.
While figure skater Sasha Cohen was praised for persevering after falling during the finals in Turin two years ago and finishing second, there was no rationalizing of Alicia Sacramone's performance in various reviews. Saying she cost her team the victory is an exaggeration, even coming from her, because the Chinese won by 2- points, the equivalent of two touchdowns. With a better effort from her, the score would have been closer, but that's all.

Just the same, she will always wonder what happened in that last event. When she came twisting out of a tumbling pass and fell, Alicia Sacramone remembered thinking, "I can't believe I'm on the floor right now."

She was supposed to be on the floor, just not sitting on the floor.
The effects of her falls will be long lasting, but not permanent. Alicia Sacramone presumably will resume her studies at Brown University and move on from Beijing. "She's the strongest person I know," said Shawn Johnson, her mature, 16-year-old U.S. teammate.

But that characteristic will be tested Sunday, and for who knows how long after the Games are over.

Bigfoot : Bigfoot Corpse in Georgia 'Real Deal' ???

PRESS CONFERENCE
to be held on
Date: Friday, August 15, 2008
Time: From 12Noon-1:00pm
Place: Cabana Hotel-Palo Alto (A Crown Plaza Resort) 4290 El Camino Real, Palo Alto, California 94306

BIGFOOT BODY FOUND - EVIDENCE AND DNA DETAILS TO BE PRESENTED AT A PRESS CONFERENCE ON FRIDAY, AUGUST 15th

FROM 12 N00N TO 1:00PM AT THE CABANA HOTEL-PALO ALTO IN PALO ALTO, CALIFORNIA.

A body that may very well be the body of the creature commonly known as “Bigfoot” has been found in the woods in northern Georgia.



DNA evidence and photo evidence of the creature will be presented in a press conference on Friday, August 15th from 12 Noon to 1:00pm at the Cabana Hotel-Palo Alto at 4290 El Camino Real in Palo Alto, California, 94306. The press conference will not be open to the public. It will only be open to credentialed members of the press.
Here are some of the vital statistics on the “Bigfoot” body:

*The creature is seven feet seven inches tall.
*It weighs over five hundred pounds.
*The creature looks like it is part human and part ape-like.
*It is male.
*It has reddish hair and blackish-grey eyes.
*It has two arms and two legs, and five fingers on each hand and
five toes on each foot.
*The feet are flat and similar to human feet.
*Its footprint is sixteen and three-quarters inches long and five and three-quarters inches wide at the heel.
*From the palm of the hand to the tip of the middle finger, its hands are
eleven and three-quarters inches long and six and one-quarter inches wide.
*The creatures walk upright. (Several of them were sighted on the same day that the body was found.)
*The teeth are more human-like than ape-like.
*DNA tests are currently being done and the current DNA and photo evidence will be presented at the press conference on Friday, August 15th.



The creature was found by Matthew Whitton and Rick Dyer (residents of Georgia) in the woods in northern Georgia. (The exact location is being kept secret to protect the creatures.)
Matthew Whitton and Rick Dyer will be flying in from Georgia to be at the press conference. Also present at the press conference will be Tom Biscardi, CEO of Searching for Bigfoot, Inc.

Whitton is a Clayton County, Georgia, police officer, who is currently on administrative leave after being wounded in the course of duty pursuing an alleged felon. Dyer is a former correctional officer. Whitton and Dyer are co-owners of bigfoottracker.com and Bigfoot Global LLC., a company that offers Bigfoot expeditions. Whitton and Dyer are working with Bigfoot hunter, Tom Biscardi, and Biscardi’s Searching for Bigfoot, Inc., to present and conduct the scientific study of the evidence and information on this body.

A few weeks ago, Whitton and Dyer announced the finding of the body on the “Squatch Detective” radio show, an internet based radio show hosted by Steve Kulls. While on that show, the commentator asked Rick Dyer “Would you allow one of our people to come down and verify the body?” Dyer replied, “The only person we would allow to come down and verify the body was ‘the real Bigfoot Hunter,’ Tom Biscardi.” The next day, the producer of the Squatch Detective show contacted Biscardi with pertinent information on how to contact Dyer and Whitton.

Extensive scientific studies will be done on the body by a team of scientists including a molecular biologist, an anthropologist, a paleontologist and other scientists over the next few months at an undisclosed location. The studies will be carefully documented and the findings will be released to the world, according to Biscardi.

Biscardi is known as “the real Bigfoot Hunter” because of his extensive investigations out in the field. He has been searching for Bigfoot since 1971 and over the past several years, he has been criss-crossing the United States and Canada tracking down the hottest leads on Bigfoot sightings.
Videography on the studies will be done under the supervision of Scott Davis, an independent producer and owner of TV Biz Productions in Phoenix, Arizona.

Currently, Tom Biscardi and his Searching for Bigfoot Team, in conjunction with Bigfoot Global LLC., are preparing to capture another of these creatures alive. That expedition will start very soon. The dates and the locations are being kept confidential.

The body that is currently being studied is being referred to as the “RICKMAT” creature, a name derived from the names of Rick Dyer and Matthew Whitton. [Cryptozoologist Loren Coleman recommends the term “Georgia Gorilla” be used to remove any taint of ego from the discovery, and so the general public, media, and science will have a comfortable moniker until a formal zoological name may be bestowed.]

Last year, a film that Biscardi produced about his investigations, called “Bigfoot Lives,” won first place in the Documentary category at the Pocono Mountains Film Festival. Biscardi also hosts a Bigfoot oriented internet radio show that can be heard on Wednesday nights from 7:00pm to 8:00pm PDT at www.bigfootliveradioshow.com. The show is heard in over thirty countries.

Searching for Bigfoot, Inc. has exclusive rights to all publishing rights, photo rights, television and film rights, production and distribution rights and other commercial opportunities related to the discovery and findings regarding this body and these creatures.

More Story on Bigfoot Found In Georgia !!!

2008 Olympics Beijing - Chinese women win gold in gymnastic

BEIJING - In the traditional scoring system, China's tiny, young gymnasts might have settled for perfect 10s and kept the Americans in the game.

Instead, the new format enabled them to soar off the uneven bars on their dismounts and post high scores that clinched the women's team gold medal after the second of four rotations Wednesday.


The ages of some Chinese gymnasts have been questioned, amid suggestions they were too young for Olympic eligibility this year (16). But they left they no doubts about their ability to perform under pressure in front of loud, chanting fans at National Indoor Stadium and a country full of big expectations for them.

Thanks mostly to dominating the bars, the Chinese posted 188.90 points to the Americans' 186.525, with Romania (181.525) a distant third.
This figured to be among the best duels staged in any sport in these Games, and the Chinese were solid throughout. The final was made more tense and intriguing when the two favorites competed together in each event, while every score counted among each country's three performers.


That's why Alicia Sacramone shook her head in disbelief after falling during her floor exercise routine on the final rotation. But the Americans' chances of winning their first team gold medal since 1996 were long gone by then.

The US Gymnasts did pretty much everything they could, but their opponents were simply that much better. Standing several inches less than 5 feet and weighing maybe 75 pounds, China's gymnastics stars played bigger than Yao Ming in the final. The Americans needed to win the vault to open the meet, which they did, and they needed to win the balance beam, which they did. The part they could not control was China's stunning performance on the bars.

America's Nastia Liukin actually posted the best score (16.90) on bars, but China's duo of He Kexin (16.85) and Yang Yilin (16.80) were too much to overcome as the host country won the event by nearly two points.

The ultimate margin of victory was striking, because while China had won the preliminary competition by 1.475 points, the Americans were dealing with some injuries and had made five major mistakes. In its own way, that performance gave them confidence about their chances of making the final interesting.


"We're going to come back even stronger in the team finals," Shawn Johnson had said. "We're ready to fight for it."

As it turned out, this bout was over by the halfway point.
Unlike most gymnastics meets, where the top teams are competing in different events throughout, the Olympic final made the comparisons easy.

The Americans started with nice vaults by Bridget Sloan, Johnson and Sacramone, taking a solid lead. Chellsie Memmel, Johnson and, especially, Luikin followed with a decent bars performance, but the Chinese topped them resoundingly.

After a good beam performance brought them within a point after three rotations, the Americans faded on the floor and China finished off the rout.

2008 Olympics Beijing - Beijing enhanced Olympics show with faked 'fireworks'

Beijing Olympic organizers say their opening-ceremony fireworks
were enhanced by prerecorded footage.

Not all was what it seemed during the spectacular opening ceremony of the Beijing Olympics.

Beijing organizers confirmed Tuesday that some of the fireworks display featured prerecorded footage.

Fireworks that burst into the shape of 29 gigantic footprints were shown trudging above the Beijing skyline to the National Stadium near the start of the ceremony.

Though the footprint-shaped fireworks were real, some of the footage shown to television viewers around the world and on giant screens inside the "Bird's Nest" stadium featured a computer-generated three-dimensional image.

"It was confirmed that previously recorded footage was provided to the broadcasters for convenience and theatrical effects -- as in many other big events," Beijing organizing committee spokesman Wang Wei said. "On the day of the ceremony there were actual footprints of fireworks from the south to the north of the city.

"However, because of the poor visibility of the night, some previously recorded footage may have been used."

The computerized images were produced by Crystal Digital Technology Co. of Beijing.

"We did our best to create a rendering that would look like the shot was taken live," company spokesman Lei Ming told the Beijing Times. "Most people could not tell the difference."

NBC said broadcasters Bob Costas and Matt Lauer told viewers the display was cinematic.

"This is actually almost animation," Lauer said on the air.

The ceremony won rave reviews around the world and was watched by more than 1 billion people.

In the United States on NBC, the ceremony averaged 34.2 million U.S. viewers, making it the biggest American television event since the Super Bowl.

Gmail Problems ???

Google Gmail Having Problems Again

Google Inc (GOOG.O: Quote, Profile, Research, Stock Buzz) said on Monday that many users of its Gmail service are having trouble accessing their online e-mail accounts due to a temporary outage in a contacts system used by Gmail.

The problems began at about 2100 GMT, or 1400 PST, and a company spokesman said Google is starting to implement a fix for the problem right now.

“We are starting to roll out a fix now and hope to have the problem resolved as quickly as possible,” said a Google spokesman.

Google said an outage in the contacts system used by Gmail is preventing the e-mail system from loading properly. The company also said that the new incoming messages are safe evenif a user can not access their account.

Users across the United States, Canada and India reported problems with Gmail and a Google employee also reported that the company’s own corporate e-mail account was down. (Reporting by Daisuke Wakabayashi; editing by CarolBishopric)

Google Gmail users have trouble accessing accounts.

It seems that Google is having another of its hic-cups once again, but this time the downtime seems more serious. It appears that the down time is world wide and Google is struggling to get it fixed. According to this article at TechCrunch which states:

Gmail is having a system wide outage affecting multiple countries, and a whole bunch of its 100 million users are screaming about it on Twitter. Around 20 million people visit Gmail each day, according to Comscore, and they’re all seeing the same message. The first outages were reported at about 2 pm PST, 44 minutes ago. The Gmail blog is silent on the outage, instead giving readers some useful tips on customizing web clips.

Hello Google! Could you please post something on your blog letting us gmail users know what the heck is going on? This isn’t funny any longer. Your service is coming under deeper scrutiny by all of us. Shape up Google!

What do you think? Can we trust Google with our data? Or are they becoming another Yahoo?
