In a grisly variation on the cat and cattle mutilations that Dreamland science reporter Linda Howe has been telling us about, severed human feet still wearing running shoes have been floating to shore in British Columbia. Stranger still: they are always right feet and the shoes they are wearing are always size 12.

Three of these disembodied feet have landed on the coast of Gabriola Island in Canada’s B.C. province within the last 6 months. The first foot was found by a 12-year-old girl from Washington State. Despite DNA testing, the remains have not been identified or correlated with any missing persons reports.

At the meeting, it was decided to consider changing the approach to this matter in 2009 if sightings continue at their present high rate. Specifically, it would be stated that UFOs represent a genuine unknown that is worthy of scientific study, and they may well be guided by a non-human intelligence.

Why does the flu strike in cold weather? It’s a tough year for the flu: this year the virus mutated after the flu vaccine was produced, meaning that only 40% of people who took the shot are protected.

Researchers have discovered that flu viruses cover themselves with a warm winter “coat” of fat that hardens into a gel to protect them from the cold. This coating melts in the higher temperatures present in our bodies, giving the virus a chance to infect us.

BBC News quotes researcher Duane Alexander as saying, “Now that we understand how the flu virus protects itself so that it can spread from person to person, we can work on ways to interfere with that protective mechanism.”
