A video was posted on youtube by Diana Navarro of some unidentified lights over New York she filmed. I have tried to enhance the video, There appear to be several flashing lights and not just a couple.
Walter Shrum And Friends Give A Gift To The Community
By TCC Team Member Dorraine Fisher
It’s not very often that someone gives something nice to the Bigfoot community just for the sake of giving. But musician Walter Shrum, along with co-writer Jayme DeFilippo, and producer Harry Metz have done just that in their production called "Searching For Bigfoot." It’s a song and video to honor the existence of our hairy friends, to commemorate the hard work it takes to find them, and give us a reason to chuckle about it besides.
According to Walter, it all started with watching episodes of Finding Bigfoot.
"I started talking to the Bigfoot community, asking questions about Bigfoot. Because I knew nothing about them," Walter told me. "We wanted to make a video, but when we watched other videos, most of them were making fun of Bigfoot, and we realized that wasn’t the way to go.
So after some thought, they decided to get some advice right from the source.
"I talked to a Bigfoot researcher from Virginia," Walter explained. "He said to make it serious with a little humor. That way, we thought the Bigfoot community would back it up."
And back it up, they did. The video has had well over 3,200 hits and climbing. Walter is thrilled with the great response.
"I want to thank the Bigfoot community for backing it up and talking to us."
They’ve been so happy with the response, that they’re getting ready to do another entitled
"Squatch On," this time about the Yeti. So there’s more to come. ********DF
Here's the "Searching for Bigfoot" video
Words to the Song:
Verse 1
They say he's a legend or the missing link
Folklore or myth tell me what you think
When you're in the forest & your senses come alive
You can smell his presence in the blink of an eye
Chorus 1
Bigfoot Sasquatch back in the woods
Bigfoot Yeti in your neighborhood
Bigfoot Skunk Ape is he beast or man
Bigfoot Windigo livin' off the land
Verse 2
Out in the mountains where the wild only walk
You can find a footprint that won't fit a sock
Cryin' in the night a full moon is all you see
You might hear a grunt some knockin' on a some tree
(Repeat Chorus 1)
Verse 3
Some people have spotted him every now & then
Ya never know if he's lurkin' just around the bend
He stands about 8 foot tall with big red eyes
Is he an animal or just a guy in a very scary hairy disguise

When the news about Janice Carter supposedly regularly feeding the Bigfoot Fox came out years ago, I posted the famous scene illustrating the event (painted by Igor Burtsev's daughter Lilya) and made an estimation of what the skull must look like on the inside based on how it had to fit on the outside. Against this I also had the reconstruction of the head and profile of a male Bigfoot as done by forensic artist and Bigfoot expert Harvey Pratt, which is also of much the same overall form.
Both conform very well to this very complete (and therefore more obviously authentic) skull of an "Early Homo sapiens" or Heidelberg man from Atapuerca, Spain and estimated to be 400000 years old : Click Here (external link)
And from the shape of the head there is very little wiggle room for error one way or the other. Homo heidelbergensis is the classification also for some fossils identified as coming from a Viking-age burial in Greenland by Mark Hall and Loren Coleman, and hence also estimated by them as the most likely forerunner to the more humalike Bigfoot reports of the Eastern United states.
Homo heidelbergensis is also often supposed to be the last common ancestor of modern Homo sapiens and the Neanderthaloids (Neanderthalers in Europe, but also Solo man in the orient and Kabe or Rhodesian man in Africa)
This is a great Rock Stack filmed by William Evans. This was from a video he took in 2009.
Sasquatch is associated with these rock stacks, just what are they for sure is kind of a mystery. Rock stacks could be some form of markers or just perhaps a pastime for Sasquatch.
Mr. Evans is also the one who filmed the baby sasquatch in the craw of a tree, which we featured a little while back.
Here is the video that has his beautiful rock stack in it.

Bullying From Dr. Ketchum?
On Threatening A Noted Sasquatch Artist
By TCC Team Member Dorraine Fisher
It’s been rumored that Dr. Ketchum has been throwing her weight around the Bigfoot community for quite some time but has managed to keep that side of herself under the radar. But a recent incident involving noted Sasquatch artist, Alex Evans, may prove a little harder to hide. Apparently the doctor has threatened her with legal action over some artwork Alex did for another client. And these threats took place via email.
It all started on August 15, 2010, when Alex posted an art piece called “Come On” on the Oregon Bigfoot website. It was a portrait of Bigfoot based on the recollections of an Ohio eye-witness. I verified the piece myself and the date it was posted through Oregon Bigfoot.
Almost exactly a year later, on August 13, 2011, Thom Cantrall sent Sally Ramey samples of Alex’s work. According to a redacted e-mail shared with Alex, Sally recommended to Dr. Ketchum that Alex be asked to do artwork for the DNA project. The date of the recommendation was August 17, 2011 and it included samples of Alex’s work … “Come On” among them.
Well today is the last day of 2012, so Happy New year to everyone and thanks for a great 2012.
I thought it would be good to list some of our biggest stories from this past year. In no particular order.
This is a sighting report taken by TCC Team Member Jason Morse. Jason is a Lifelong outdoor enthusiast, trained in wilderness survival tactics, 26 year martial artist, DJ, EMT and amateur writer.
Yesterday, December 29th, I was contacted by David Williams and Ashley Eaton, a couple friends of mine from Newmarket,NH regarding a sighting they had just had that day. Here's what they had to say:
"We were driving down Camp Lee Rd. in Newmarket, At about 5:00 pm. Since it was dark already and snowing very hard, we were driving slow, about 15 MPH due to the poor road conditions.
We rounded a bend, and in the middle of the road, we saw a dark figure. First we thought it was a bear, as it was moving rather slowly on all fours, but as we got closer we both exclaimed aloud when we realized we were wrong.
As we got within 50 feet of this figure, I noticed a sort of ape-like head, coned at the top, but no protruding nose area like a gorilla or chimp has, long, black fur/hair all over, narrow waist, and massive chest and shoulders.
We could see "normal" but large feet in the back, but saw that it was using it's fists to walk on in the front. David guesses it to be about 3 1/2 to 4 feet high at the shoulder, there were bulges on the back where the shoulders was, and the back was completely horizontal from behind the bulged shoulder muscles to the hind end. IT saw us, and paused briefly, like a "Deer in the headlights" then in no hurry, ambled off the road into the trees."
"The chest was so huge, like a bodybuilder" says David. "I've never seen anything like it, all I can think is that we saw a Bigfoot on all fours like a bear.
I'd guess if it stood up, it would have been from 7-9 feet tall, but it's hard to estimate with it on all fours."
They both were positive that what they had seen was no bear, due to the lack of a muzzle, and it was far too big to be a person. These are both trustworthy people that I've known for a long time. From my own experience, I can attest to there being Sasquatch in this area.
In the area of this sighting, there is a few house, and nearby, there is a farm with small animals, (chickens, etc) an easy chance for a meal.
I believe that this sighting is true and accurate, considering the excitement and confusion when they approached me about it.

The True Story About The Bigfoot Named Fox Will The Real Janice Carter Please Step Forward By TCC Team Member Dorraine Fisher
Someone’s going around impersonating Janice Carter. At least that’s the story according to Janice Carter herself and long time friend Sally Ramey.
On Dec. 17, a post on Shawn Evidence’s blog referenced an account originally appearing on Robert Lindsay’s blog from an anonymous person claiming to have been with the two women and several other people when they visited a dying Bigfoot named Fox. Sally denied this nameless person’s account here on Crypto Crew, but a comment on Shawn Evidence’s blog, posted by Jan’s friend Melody, led people to believe that both Janice and Sally were present when the creature died, leading the community to believe that the two women have knowledge of the whereabouts of the body of this creature.
To add to the confusion, Shawn Evidence’s blog later ran an e-mail from someone claiming to be Janice. Within that same post Shawn ran a response from the supposed "anonymous witness" claiming that Sally and Janice’s two stories contradict each other. And this anonymous witness claims to have the only "real story."
But so much has been taken out of context and so many untruths have circulated that the two ladies
felt the need to respond.
"Someone is trying to target us for some reason," Sally told me. The two women have tried to get the story straightened out, but because of her brain injury, Janice often has trouble with written communications. In this case, one misused phrase made the two women appear to be at odds with each other. But the bottom line is that neither of the two women was actually there when Fox died.
This is what Janice herself told me this week:
"Dorraine, The only person I sent an email to so that it could be used was Melody and she posted it to Shawn's blog or Robert's, I do believe. That is the only post that should be anywhere on the blogs. No one, including myself, my daughter or Sally, was at Fox's side or present in the area where the Bf reside/live when Fox passed away."
Jan
And in closing, this is what Sally had to say also:
"Jan and I have both stated that only she and I and her daughter made an attempt to visit Fox. People may mince words, but we did not see any Bigfoot, and no one else was there. We will comment on this matter no further."
The two women are both baffled by who might want to impersonate Janice and spread untruths, but both felt the need to clear this up once and for all. *********DF
[The source for this information came directly from Janice Carter and Sally Ramey. Both are very easy to find and talk to.]
By now you may have heard that some super secret, well funded, military styled bigfoot research group has managed to capture a living breathing bigfoot! Yes I know it's amazing news, no one in the world can even get a clear picture of a bigfoot but this fine group has captured one. All that training and protocols have finally paid off. We have no idea where this event took place, but it don't matter. It was also reported that Navy Seal Team 6 was at first invited but later they were ruled out due to lack of training.
So now we can piece together how they might have did it.
First, it was reported, that they used the trap pictured below
Actual trap?
But after a few days the beer was still there, it was later found out that the bigfoot in this area were non drinkers, maybe even Mormons but I don't know... anyways the group had to step back and then step it up with a better bigfoot trap.
Behold the better mouse...errrr a .. bigfoot trap.
BOOM! It worked! all these years, research and funding has paid off ! Yeah we know it's cardboard but todays cardboard is really, really strong.
The bigfoot was soon named and moved into a cage build for one, it's like a rule or protocol or something that you have to name any bigfoot you capture or kill. Sadly no one had a digital camera or cell phone at the time of capture, only one of them 1984 instant polaroid thingy's...were you push the button and out came a blurry photo.
Yes, Daisy is in the Cage !
But what happened next was the really amazing part.
Oh No! Someone might get in trouble, so Daisy was released and all documents, photos and evidence was destroyed! Not only that the people involved had their memories erased by that cool gadget seen in the Men in Black movies. Oh yes they are real....Our Government uses them on the American citizens through the TV, How else did Obama win re election?
But wait that is NOT the end of the story - after this story was leaked out on purpose the web hits just kept coming, so much in fact the forum web page has been crashing out. So in an effort to tell the story and satisfy the masses and their out cry ...There will be a MOVIE! Yes a movie and the title and art is already done.
The names, color or the bigfoot, location, all records and ect...have been changed to help the people involved live a normal life, well as normal as a person can with an erased memory, but other than that the movie is reportedly really accurate.
Filmed in Glorious Black & White...well originally it was in color but you could see the zipper too much on the bigfoot costume so it was changed to black and white! Look for it on Netflix in 2013 and we hear there is even a special dial up modem version for those without high speed internet.
Audio Book version coming soon. Everyone is hopeful it will get better reviews than that one crappy syfy bigfoot movie with that dude from The Brady Bunch show and that red headed crazy guy from the old hippy show where they played music on a weird painted school bus.
So there you have it the scoop on the captured bigfoot.
Thanks

!UPDATE! -
I got an email today of another loud boom. Here is the email.
"Today 12-31-2012 around 12:00 pm a Loud Boom was heard from my house to ten miles away. I called the house down the road to see if he heard and is hard of hearing and he also heard the Boom. My best friend who lives a mile up the road from me called to see if I heard both of them they were 20 minutes apart.
I called my cousin who lives 10 miles away and she also heard both Booms.
There was no smoke that anyone could see. Nothing is on the news. Just wanted to report this to you after reading the article."

TCC - Thanks Bonnie! Keep us posted.
- End Update -
I have gotten a new report of a loud boom in Northern Kentucky on Dec. 26, 2012.
I received the follow email from Maggie and here is what it said. "I was googling to see if there was any info on a really loud boom in Union KY (just south of Cincinnati OH) and I came across your sight.
At around 9:26 am today (Dec.26 2012)
A Boom so loud it shook my house. I live in a brick house. I ran outside to see if a vehicle crashed into the house. There was nothing.
I overheard a woman at the grocery store talking on her cell and she said as she walked by "yea, I heard it too! It was around 9:25."
Some are saying that the earlier boom that happened in Southeast ,Ky was due to the military shooting some kind of tank/weapon around Fort Knox, but this does not hold water for me. The reason it does not hold water is that for one Harlan county is just too far away and for another why would they be shooting some kind of weapon at around 12pm at night.
And now we have a new mystery boom in Northern Kentucky. It all seems a little strange to me and it could be earthquake related.
If anyone has any info on the recent booms in Northern or Southeastern Kentucky please contact me via email at thecryptocrew@kih.net

The top composite shows three images of what I take to be the actual Sasquatch type of the Pacific Northwest, the more humanlike Eastern Bigfoot or American Almas and the more apelike form of Eastern Bigfoot, the Skunk apes or NAPES.
The first image (named "Jada")I take not to be an actual Sasquatch but a representation of the type: the Kwakiutl hat-mask (The below photo is much like it. Another one of the same type was just sent to me from a facebook Sasquatch group but I think it is possibly a photograph of a manufactured bust. It is very large.
The more manlike one at center top is easily recognized simply because it IS more manlike: I consider the "Minnesota Iceman" to be an example of this.
Once again there are many witnesses' impressions to go by, but I feel fairly certain that the very good sculpted busts by Alex Evans are a good representation of this.
I also feel that if you had the creature shown in Melissa Hovey's (On the left in the above photo) American Bigfoot Society photo of the hairy back and then you turned it around, you would have again the same type of a face. The face bust is currently being used to advertise a Southeastern Bigfoot convention, and Melissa Hovey has given me written permission to reprint the photo. I find the best likeness to match the bust is an old bust of the Heidelburg man (Reconstruction based on the Mauer jaw) and this is indeed a candidate for the type (and so identified by Mark Hall and Loren Coleman) for the same Eastern Bigfoot population: Mark Hall illustrates a skull of the type taken from a historical grave and published in the 1920s.
The third image on the top composite represents the more apelike creature called variously the Wood Ape or Tree ape, Swamp ape or Skunk ape. It leaves tracks with an opposed big toe, but more like the tracks of the "Orang Pendek" in shape than the tracks of any of the "Known" great apes. There are a large number of "Blobsquatch" photos of the type floating around the internet (but also in the case of the more humanlike kind) and here is another example from the Bigfoot Evidence blog and also a comparison between the two types of tracks from the Eastern USA.
The young ones of the more humanlike kinds are much brainier than the young ones of the other two kinds, if the photo from Arkansas of the "Unidentified Primate" can be trusted. And the brighter orange colored reconstruction represents the face of the more apelike kind-showing the characteristic small beady eyes stuck close together, vertically elongated eye-sockets, peak or lump on the top of the head "Two large holes" nose and the protuberant mouth which opens to show large fangs. the ears are usually small and not noticeable. Some cases of "Glowing eyes" are reported.
Here is a straightforward comparison between the Patterson film Sasquatch and the Edwards photo: the more apelike one has an even smaller head, pinched shoulders, longer arms and very short legs that do not raise it high up out of the ground cover.
Such creatures are reported hoarding and eating acorns in areas with oak trees, and in places as far apart as Ontario and Georgia are said to raid orchards of apples, pears and peaches, and it seems that they store food up over the winter and sleep fitfully in guard over their hoards in hollow logs and dug-out dens they have made. Any photographs of "Bigfoot" up any trees are likely to be of this type also.
They seem to come in two basic color schemes, All-black (or very dark brown) and red (or orange) the orange colored ones are often said to resemble orangutans very closely, and the black or dark ones are said to resemble chimps or gorillas, but not usually so strongly.
Thanks
Dale
Here is what they said about it: "This was seen between 2-3pm on Christmas Day in Chester County PA. The higher black object hovered in the same spot for 2-1/2 to 3 hours. These lights then appeared below it."
I have attempted to enhance the black object and the flashing object. This is a pretty interesting video, I don't know what it is or even if it is real.
