According to Fox News, Mays had been on board a US Airways flight that blew out its front tires as it landed at Tampa International Airport on June 27, the day before his death. None of the 138 passengers and five crew members were severely injured in the incident, but several passengers reported having bumps and bruises, according to the station. It is unclear whether Mays' death was related to the incident.

After 'Son of Dracula' tanked, Nilsson headed back to California, where he and Lennon would soon partake in their infamously debauched "lost weekend" (which actually lasted about a year and a half) while making the album 'Pussy Cats' together. He began lending his London apartment to friends in the music business. After two sold-out shows at the London Palladium in July 1974, "Mama" Cass Elliot suffered a fatal heart attack in one of the beds in Nilsson's flat. (Contrary to the longstanding urban legend, the zaftig singer did not die from choking on a ham sandwich.)
Four years later, Keith Moon and his girlfriend retired to the same apartment after joining Paul and Linda McCartney at a screening of 'The Buddy Holly Story.' Trying to quit drinking, the Who drummer was treating his withdrawals with Clomethiazole. He died of an overdose of the sedative -- reportedly, in the same bed that Mama Cass had died in. Moon's last album with the Who, 'Who Are You,' had just been released. On the cover, the drummer was seated backward in a chair stamped "Not to Be Taken Away."
Appalled by the deaths of his friends, Nilsson sold the flat to Pete Townshend. From there, the once-prolific recording artist's career went quickly downhill. His visibility during the 1980s consisted largely of appearances on behalf of the Coalition to Stop Gun Violence, which he joined after the murder of his friend Lennon. Nilsson released only a few more albums, all widely ignored, before his own heart gave out in 1994 - - spinner.com

SPIRIT hopes to bridge the paranormal - The group is called SPIRIT - the Shiawassee Paranormal Investigation, Research and Information Team. They formed in April, but are still waiting to get their feet wet, according to founder and lead investigator Greg Berry. "I'm not going to say the group is a hobby.

from several 2- to 4-year-old girls who are all members

read the candidates' horoscopes and check each one
for physical imperfections. The living goddess must
have perfect hair, eyes, teeth and skin with no scars,
and should not be afraid of the dark. As a final test,
the living goddess must spend a night alone in a room
among the heads of ritually slaughtered goats and
buffaloes without showing fear. -- yahoonews

Sixth
Sense - The “Sixth Sense” is a colloquial
term that denotes the ability to receive or send information
outside the realm of the five senses of touch, sight,

covers a whole gamut of experiences of Extra Sensory
Perception (ESP) ranging from intuition and communing
with God (deemed a supernatural being by many), to
the netherworld of dark secrets like voodoo and black
magic. In between the two extremes are interspersed
other versions of ESP like psychokinesis, remote viewing,
telekinesis, telepathy, clairvoyance and déjà
vu, to mention a few. The German researcher Dr. Rudolf
Tischner used the term “sixth sense” in
his book "Telepathy and Clairvoyance" written

The
Post tries to land evidence of ghosts - I’ve
always been curious about the paranormal. I attempt
to satisfy that curiosity by reading about haunted
places or watching television shows like “Ghost
Hunters.” However, the extent of my own paranormal
experiences have been limited to a few games played
on the Ouija board – which have still been enough
to make me pull the covers tighter when I hear something

Rev
up your team spirit, but watch out for haunted spirits
- Looking for something weird but also a little educational?
The Ybor City Paranormal Conference at the Cuban Club
on Saturday (9/6) is probably up your alley. With
courses on different aspects of ghosts and ghouls,
including how to perform a proper investigation and
the use of psychics. Starting at 8:30 p.m. there will
be a walking tour of Ybor to show you all the hot
haunted spots. I'll be there camera in hand and my
iPod set to play Ray Parker Jr. on repeat the whole
time in hope of luring the ghosts out with the catchy
melodies. On a side note: Tampa had another paranormal
convention a little while back. This just further
proves my point that Tampa Bay is the epicenter of
weird and scary things: zombies, vampires and now
ghosts. I want to see some werewolves next. -- Tampabay.com,

Civil War battlefields are laboratories for paranormal
investigations. Mark Nesbitt has collected over a
thousand stories that appear to show evidence of spirit
entities lingering on battlefields, as seen on The
Ghosts of Gettysburg series on the History Channel.
Dr. Emmons has collected similar accounts of hauntings
in China as well as in the town of Gettysburg and

as well as photographs, videos and audio recordings,
Nesbitt and Emmons will present evidence of ghosts
and theories to explain them. 1:30 - 4:30 P.M. PARANORMAL

Beliefs
and African intellectuals - Paranormal beliefs refer
to those modes of explanation and interpretation of
the natural world or phenomena using as a part element

or accepted scientific explanations. A characteristic
of all paranormal claims is that, they lack evidence.
And where such exists. it is flimsy or based on ignorance,
hearsay or fallacy. Paranormal claims include witchcraft,
ghost, astrology, faith healing, demon possession,
exorcism, telepathy, clairvoyance, alternative medicine,
ritual money, communication with spirits etc. -- Nigerian

It's
Ghost Season in Japan - Who You Gonna Call? - How
can one stop being haunted by ghosts? In the Christianized
West, holy water and crosses may help ward off ghosts,
but they won't keep their Japanese counterparts, buried
under Shinto or Buddhist rites, at bay. Instead, "ofuda"
strips inscribed with Buddhist sutras are believed
to be effective in keeping evil spirits away. Some
Shinto shrines also provide "oharai," a
purification ritual that removes bad omens with wooden
wands and chants. -- Japan Times

Pirate
ghosts and hidden treasure - One intriguing claim
has been made which states that, at one point, Portland
Creek was so haunted by pirate ghosts that it was
nearly impossible to keep a dog in the community.
Apparently the dogs, sensitive to the phantom menace,
were driven wild by paranormal visitors and would
keep owners up with their nightly howling. -- St.
