NH Teens Shot-Putted In Car By UFO

"UFO picks up Laconia, NH car with teens and drops 180 feet away"

April 18, 7:08 PMUFO ExaminerRoger Marsh

Two New Hampshire teenagers sitting in a parked car were approached by a black-colored UFO in Laconia on March 20, 2010, lifted into the air and then dropped back onto pavement 180 feet away, according to testimony from the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) database.

The 18-year-old girl and 16-year-old boy both offer testimony about their encounter.

"We were just sitting there and I looked up at the moon," the female witness stated. "I saw this weird black-shaped object. And then, I said to my boyfriend, 'What was that?'” 

Both accounts describe the same events. They saw an object coming toward them from the sky and began to panic. When they attempted to drive away, the car they were operating was lifted up off the ground. Both describe an odd smell during the incident.

When the car hit the pavement 180 feet away, the windshield cracked and the air bags deployed.

The male witness descibed the UFO.

"I don’t know how to explain this but it turns into a ball when it wants to slow down and move around quickly and when it wants to go fast, straight, it turns into a flat plate with maze box-shaped lined lights. These were on all the time."

He describes attempting to drive away.

"The front end got picked up and the car could not move. We steered left and right but the car just kept on going up into the air."

Notice the date stamp on this article.  Now being a NH-er-er myself, I am aware that our state is lacking social light swagger north of the Manchester border.  So this is just another case of teenagers celebrating an early 4/20 right?  Making up UFO/alien stories and shit high off too much tenfootganjaplant.  Wrong!  There are fucking aliens in New Hampshire.  Fuck crop circles and all that other bullshit.  These kids got proof...You know what that is---->  

Goddamn asphalt!  Doesn't get realer than that now does it?  Nothing like 3" deep cracks in the asphalt.  I mean it's not like a car falling from 180' would do more damage than a 3" divot right?  Let's be serious now.  I could drop a dookie from 180' and do more damage than that.  

My question is, can I make up some candy ass story like this and make the headlines?  I can see it now...

Two Mouths To Feed And Only One Way To Breathe - Gills

Ever wonder how Hollywood comes up with the ideas they come up with to scare us and creep us out? Well, how about right here in the oceans on the Oblate Spheroid.

It has been recently discovered that the Moray Eel uses an eating method that employs two sets of clamping jaw mechanisms – like right out of Hollywood and the movie “Aliens”

The creepy truth about moray eels

It's like a scene from an Aliens movie: a scaly underwater creature looking something like a piranha crossed with a python strikes at its prey which is then reeled deeper into the beast's throat by a second set of toothy jaws.

But this sinister animal isn't a figment of a Hollywood director's imagination, suddenly bursting out of a character's stomach, terrifying audiences. It's a real-life product of evolution.

As if eels weren't already creepy enough, scientists at UC Davis have discovered that some eels have an extra set of jaws deep in their throats that launch forward into their mouths to help pull prey in.

"It looks like a funny pair of forceps with curved sharp teeth," said evolutionary biologist Rita Mehta, lead author of the research, which appears Thursday in Nature.

Mehta and functional morphologist Peter Wainwright captured the odd feeding behavior using high-speed video recordings of eels in lab tanks. Slowed down, the video reveals the jaws coming forward into the mouth and taking hold of a piece of food.

"It was one of those gee-whiz moments when we were absolutely ecstatic," Mehta said. "It was just astounding."

Before the discovery, scientists thought that all aquatic predators swallowed their prey using suction. By dropping the lower jaw and creating a flow of water into their mouths, they draw in the prey. The two species of moray eels studied by Mehta and Wainwright are the first examples of an alternative feeding method.

Other bony fish also catch their prey with their teeth, but they still use suction to swallow it.

Snakes accomplish the same thing by alternately ratcheting the left and right sides of their jaws along their quarry.

Mehta thinks the eels' extra jaws may have evolved to help the eels catch animals in small cracks and crevices in the coral they inhabit. While suction requires expansion of the mouth, the eel's double-jaw trick allows it to remain long and skinny, and may have helped them earn their place as top predator on the coral reef.

The discovery shows that suction feeding in not the final word on fish feeding behavior.

"There are probably more alternatives to suction feeding," Mehta said. "This is probably the tip of the iceberg.

"We're just starting to look."
