‘Black Magic’ involved in the Recent Thailand Blood Spilling Incident?

This is the popular incident of Blood Spill incident of Thailand recenlty.

Bangkok - Red-dressed Thai protesters on Tuesday collected their own blood, planning to spill it at the government's gates in a symbolic gesture as they stepped up protests demanding snap elections.

Hundreds of "Red Shirts", loyal to deposed premier Thaksin Shinawatra, were queuing up in Bangkok to offer a small amount of their blood in an unusual show of their determination, AFP reporters witnessed.

It is the latest move in an anti-government street demonstration that has drawn tens of thousands of protesters to the streets of the capital since it officially began at the weekend amid tight security.

BLOOD BLOOD BLOOD!!!



And quote from BBC news, we are expecting some 'Black Magic' actions involved...

The leaders of the red-shirted United Front for Democracy against Dictatorship (UDD) created ceremonies to spill blood at the entrances to the seat of government, it was intended as a powerful curse.

Leaders including Thaksin are said to have consulted astrologers
It could also be seen as an act to counter the perceived illegitimacy of that government - and Mr Abhisit who leads it - when the blood was spilled outside his home.

That is not how the government chose to see it, of course.

"The world sees some people in Thailand as believers in black magic and as uncivilised," said Deputy Prime Minister Suthep Thaugsuban, who is in charge of national security.

"Blood is a symbol of violence and hurling it at the house is saddening. The prime minister is speechless over this incident," a minister in the prime minister's office, Satit Wongnhongtaey, told reporters.

But just as the red rallies were kicking off at the beginning of the week, one local paper chose to give most of its page two over to a feature about a veteran policeman proudly showing off his collection of amulets and the supernatural forces he calls into play to help solve crimes.

Days of the week are associated with particular colours, certain numbers are significant and layers of symbolism abound.

One red-shirt protester told the BBC he felt his donation of blood was akin to forging a bond of blood brotherhood with fellow protesters as ancient warriors have done.

But the point of politicians employing certain rituals, Drs Pasuk and Baker say, is to harness and accumulate power.

"The ability to influence events through supernatural forces is a form of power."

Black Magic? Black Magic?? Black Magic???

Fearsome 10 Chinese Mythological Beast

Chinese Sea Serpent (Jiao)
A Chinese Sea Serpent is known as a JIAO! It is basically very sea dragon looking except that a sea dragon has horns and a JIAO does not have.



Nian
A Nian is a beast associated with Chinese New Year. It is said to appear yearly for food during early spring period. By how many times an adult lion is bigger than a usual adult cat, this NIAN is about the amount of times or perhaps even more, bigger than an adult lion.



This creature is basically a Lion like beast with horns of a dragon above its head. Mainly Green and yellow in color. It has scales on certain parts of its body. It's has many armored padding’s around it's body and is a very strong beast that can break rocks or make an opening in the mountains by ramming itself against them. Its mouth is huge and it swallows its food as a whole in one single mouthful most of the time.

However, it is very afraid of the color of red. Myths and Legends say that it runs away at the sight of red and red is the way to seduce this beast.

Qilin
Some believe that QILIN is the Chinese version of western unicorn but others argued not. A Chinese QILIN is a mixture of a dragon, a pony horse and a deer. It has a head and scales of a dragon. A body of a pony horse with legs and tail of a deer.



It has been said that this is a very kind hearted beast with great benevolence and does not even step on an ant. It usually eats on dead animals or dying plants. It is only someone with a pure kind and true heart that would have the chance to stumble upon this beast.

It has been said to be able to know who is a good person and who is a baddie. It is never ever soft hearted or merciful towards evil people. This beast will devour such people immediately without a second thought at sight. In most of the cases, this beast is often a guidance beast. It has been often said that if one spots this beast, there is bound to be some treasures or some sort nearby as in most of the cases this beast is often said to be the protector of something.

Chinese Unicorn
As to those who disagrees that a QILIN is a Chinese Unicorn, there are 2 sets of arguments. Some believes that a Chinese unicorn is the left one but others say it is the right one.



However, both types of unicorns share something in common. It is a creature that personifies all that is good, pure, truthful, sincere, and peaceful. It lives in paradise of the heavens and only visits the world at the birth of a wise philosopher or saga. According to ancient records, at the birth of Confucius, a Unicorn is said to have descended down from the heavens and left a footprint at the doorstep of the house.

As to those who believe that a Chinese Unicorn is the first, it is mixture of a deer, an Ox, a Horse, and a Fish. It is basically a deer with one horn, the tail of an ox, the hooves of a horse, and a body covered with the scales of a fish.

Xiezhi (獬豸) or Haetae
A XieZhi is animal with a unicorn horn, and as to the shape of the body, it can varies due to size and growth stage as it can that of a Lion, a Goat, an Ox or even a Dog.



According to Legends & Myths, it is an animal that is extremely particular about Justices, Fairness, & Truths. It is able to deceit good and evil, lies and truth, the innocent victim and the culprit, the bully and the bullied.

It will use its horn to gorge wrong doers or evil people and then devour them. It simply hates such people. In an event of argument and disputes, whosoever that it points it horn at is the person who is at the wrong or who is unreasonable etc.....

It is a very typical symbol of Justice and Fairness during the ancient times in both China and Korea. Some claim that the element which represents this animal is Water but others say it is Fire.

Taotie (饕餮)
A Shape of a goat, body of an OX, Teeth of Tiger, and a Face of a human, but however has a voice that sounds like an infant.



Taowu (梼杌)
A shape and body of a tiger, fur of a dog but with a human face, both the mouth and teeth of a boar, and an extremely long tail. It was said that this beast was once a human but was somehow or rather transformed into this demonic beast after he had died.



When he was a human, he was simply inhuman! He was also the root cause of many troubles and problems to others. Much misery and tragedies were as a result of his doings.

Baize (白泽)
It lives in the mountains of Kunlun, Snow white in color, able to speak human languages. It fully understands and comprehends the nature of all living things and it rarely spotted unless a saga/sage is governing the nation.



Yayu (猰貐)
Son of Zhulong, said to be originally very honest and kind hearted before death. The Heavens seeing that Zhulong was so sad show pity and sympathy by reviving his son. However unexpectedly & unknown, upon the revival of his son, his son became into a very vicious and evil monster and loves to feast on humans. In the end Hou Yi was send to kill this beast.



There are many versions as to how this beast looks like. Some say that it is a human face with a body of dragon; some say it is a human face with Ox body and horse legs, but others say it is a huge beast that has a dragon head with tiger body.

Pixiu
It is a Chinese hybrid creature that is similar to a winged lion of the western. Pixiu is a very significant creature to Feng Shui practitioner as it a very powerful protector. As a Pixiu is an earth and sea variation, it is therefore particularly an auspicious and influential creature for wealth.



It has been said to have an extremely voracious appetite towards gold and sliver. As a result, traditionally to the Chinese they believe that this creature processes mystical powers that can draw wealth to them from all directions. Hence for anyone who is experiencing a bad year, this creature is just what you need.

There are 2 types of this Chinese hybrid creature, Pixiu. The only difference is whether it has 1 horn or 2 horns. The one with 1 horn is called as Tian Lu who is in charge of wealth and prevents wealth from flowing away. Typically in Chinese offices, it can be found.

The one with 2 horns is called as Pi Ya, which is said to be able to ward off evil and can be used to assist anyone who is suffering from bad Feng Shui which is because they have offended the Grand Duke Jupiter (also called as Tai Sui).

European Encounters of Chinese Sea Serpent In South East Asia

It was during the 1700s and 1800s during the days of the european colonisation as well as explorations and discovery that the early europeans came by sea route into south east asia and other parts of asia.

It was being frequently claimed by many Europeans of those days that Chinese Sea Serpents was being spotted in the South China Seas and Straits of Melacca.

The sea serpent is as common in oriental folklore as in its occidental counterparts. In China the legends merge into purely mythical accounts of sea dragons, which have the disconcerting talent of shape shifting, but the more credible tales seem to describe something very similar to the sea serpent, in China called the Kiao or Shan.

The Shan is the Eastern Sea Dragon that unlike the Kiao, who is a lake dweller, lives in the sea. The Shan is described as serpentine but with ears, horns and a red mane. Until recently the Malays and Chinese believed sea serpents were responsible for ambergris, which they call 'dragon spittle'. In the History of the Ming Dynasty, a Chinese author describes a place called Dragon Spittle Island in the Sea of Lambri

In the 19th century many oriental sea serpents were seen by Europeans. Some were shown to be frauds or hysterical exaggerations, but several accounts cannot be easily dismissed - though, as always, many witnesses regretted having gone public. The Straits Times Overland Joumal carried a lively correspondence on the matter. Particularly dramatic was the encounter in September 1876 between the SS Nestor and a 'sea serpent' in the Straits of Malacca which seemed rather different to most, though very Chinese.

There is in the Far East a well - known living 'dragon' species, named the Komodo Dragon because its primary (almost its only) habitat is Indonesia's Komodo Island. This giant monitor lizard usually grows to about 12ft (3.7m), but speeimens twice as long have been reported. The creatures migrate by sea between Komodo and three other Indonesian islands. Specimens washed out to sea may well have given rise to some sea - monster tales, but none of great importance.

Oarfish omen spells earthquake disaster for Japan

By Julian Ryall

The appearance of the fish follows Saturday's destructive 8.8 magnitude earthquake in Chile and the January 12 tremors in Haiti, which claimed an estimated 200,000 lives.

A quake with a magnitude of 6.4 has also struck southern Taiwan.

This rash of tectonic movements around the Pacific "Rim of Fire" is heightening concern that Japan - the most earthquake-prone country in the world - is next in line for a major earthquake.

Interview with a national serviceman on a paranormal encounter

by Joan Seth

I recently heard about this real life encounter from a friend of mine, who's a regular officer in the Singapore Armed Forces. Apparently it happened to one of his subordinates not too long ago. I did not hesitate and thus quickly conducted this email interview through my friend.

All names and locations shall remain confidential for reasons of privacy.

AP: Can you start off by introducing yourself?

NJ: I am XXX, currently serving my second year in National Service, in XXX camp.

AP: So can you tell us how this encounter happened?

NJ: It happened about a month ago. I was on guard duty at that time. I remember it was somewhere between the time of 3 to 4 am when I saw something quite extraordinary.

AP: What were you doing at that time?

NJ: I was fully awake. Everything was normal. I was sitting alone in the
guardroom.

AP: Can you describe what happened next?

NJ: I saw a blue light flashing from outside the camp. The guardroom is situated next to the main gates, of which the main road runs beside it. The light was coming from the trees opposite the main gates. I remember it was very bright and I couldn't look directly into it.

AP: Did you hear anything? Or was there any smell?

NJ: No. I didn't.

AP: How were you feeling at this time?

NJ: Initially it felt strange. I was worried something might happen. I soon
realized that it could be something supernatural and that made me scared.

AP: What happened next?

NJ: The light moved from a right to left direction. Then I saw something even weirder.

AP: What was it that you saw?

NJ: I saw a shadow. It was very well defined and outlined. The light seemed to be coming from this shadow.

AP: Did you mean to say you saw a person?

NJ: No. I was very sure it was not a person. I saw a very well defined outline of a shadow. It was too nicely shaped, I began to realize it was not a real person. It looked almost like a prop or a cut cardboard piece of a human.

AP: What happened next?

NJ: The light went off.

AP: And then?

NJ: There was nothing more. No shadow, no sound. Nothing.

AP: How did you feel next?

NJ: It felt really weird. I wasn't so sure if it was a human or was it friendly or
not.

AP: Did you inform anyone else of this at that point of time?

NJ: No. I didn't. The other guards were all asleep. I doubt they would believe me anyway.

AP: What did you think the thing was?

NJ: I'm not so sure. Initially I thought it could be someone from the PUB, checking the water in the reservoir. But at 3 to 4 am in the morning? That's why I didn't think it was a human. I now believe it could be an alien or some extraterrestrial being.

AP: An alien?

NJ: Yes. I believe the light beam could be a mark of its technology. It could be here doing surveillance or investigation at the reservoir.

AP: So do you think it had good intentions?

NJ: I honestly don't know.

AP: Do you think it will appear again?

NJ: I can't say for sure. I have not seen it again since. I really hope it doesn't though. Although I wasn't freaked out or anything, but I do not want to have such an encounter again.

AP: Thank you for your time, XXX.

NJ: Thanks.

Bhagat - The Man with Twin Babies in Stomach

Sanju Bhagat's from city of Nagpur, India, Bhagat, his stomach was once so swollen he looked nine months pregnant and could barely breathe.



Inside Bhagat's stomach was a strange, half-formed creature that had feet and hands that were very developed. Its fingernails were quite long.

Bhagat, they discovered, had one of the world's most bizarre medical conditions -- fetus in fetu. It is an extremely rare abnormality that occurs when a fetus gets trapped inside its twin. The trapped fetus can survive as a parasite even past birth by forming an umbilical cordlike structure that leaches its twin's blood supply until it grows so large that it starts to harm the host, at which point doctors usually intervene.

Your 10 Haunted Place in Kuala Lumpur Malaysia

kAuthor: Zacklyraw

Some gorgeous places in Kuala Lumpur with possible spirits haunting them.
When you visit Kuala Lumpur, check out these places with histories of hauntings -- if you dare!

1. Victoria's Institution
How could you not see this on the list? Come on... at 116 years old, it's bound to have some ghoulies running around. Most famously, and this is uncertain for every source we've looked at or heard from varies, it was used by the Japanese soldiers during WWII as HQ/execution area/ marching ground etc. I'm sure you know at least one V.I. boy who'll enlighten you with various stories.

2. Highland Towers
This just had to be on the list lah. As far as fame goes, this is like the Richard Gere of eerie sites in KL. In 1993, one of 3 blocks collapsed which led to 48 deaths. Besides being surrounded by overgrown plants, the unkept condition of the buildings just make it perfect when it comes to haunts. They do say that ghosts do enjoy residing in "dirty" areas. Only one way to find out...

3. Kajang Highschool
Maybe this isn't as famous as it should be because V.I. takes the cake in central KL. Similarly, this highschool was occupied by the Japanese for similar reasons. Students and ex-students from that area, will gladly verify the spookies.

4. Abandoned bungalows in Bangsar
Bangsar-ians will not thank me for this. Alas, the world wants to know. Apparently, (and I use 'apparently' cause the story started with just one bungalow and soon become a whole stretch of bungalows) there are a few haunted houses in Bangsar with all sorts of background stories. Most notably some guard went bonkers and murdered the kids and dumped the bodies into the water tank. Cool.
