U.N. May Attempt Internet Takeover
Now that future ruler of the universe baby Blue Ivy Carter has been born, the UN can start establishing the New World Order.
“On Feb. 27," according to the Washington Post, "A diplomatic process will begin in Geneva that could result in a new treaty giving the United Nations unprecedented powers over the Internet. Dozens of countries, including Russia and China, are pushing hard to reach this goal by year's end. As Russian Prime Minister Vladimir Putin said last June, his goal and that of his allies is to establish 'international control over the Internet' through the International Telecommunication Union (ITU), a treaty-based organization under U.N. auspices.”
Among the proposed changes are fees for international internet traffic, regulation of mobile roaming rates and practices, and subject cyber security to international control...
Hitler May Have Had A Son
The movie The Boys From Brazil may not be entirely fictional after all.
The film, which depicts Gregory Peck as Nazi doctor Joseph Menegle, describes a plot to establish a Fourth Reich by cloning Hitler. And like Elvis being an alien and Suri Cruise as the leader of the Illuminati (okay, I believe that one), the cloning and/or spawning of Hitler is a conspiracy that some conspiracy buffs still believe.
As it turns out, they may be on to something...
Did Whitney Houston Die So Blue Ivy Carter Could Live?
Has the late Whitney Houston inspired the greatest blood sacrifice, of all? Some conspiracy theorists think so.
Despite Whitney's struggles with drug addiction, the world was shocked by her death on the eve of the 2012 Grammy Awards. She was only 48 and, according to some reports, had been drug-free for several months. Meanwhile, hip-hop/R&B royalty Beyonce and Jay-Z have been very secretive about their daughter, Blue Ivy. And it's not just because she's basically the richest, most powerful baby ever.
Blue Ivy Carter might also be the spawn of Satan -- or so the (crazy) rumor mill has it, and she may be the reason for Whitney Houston's untimely death...
NASA Photos "Prove" Moon Landing Was Faked
I’ve been saying for a long time that the moon landing was faked. If it ever happened in the first place, why have we stayed away so long? Why are there not mining colonies and hospices on the moon? It's the 21st century after all.
Then I came across this batch of photos – brazenly posted on NASA’s own website no less – that give photographic evidence that all aspects of the moon landing were staged from start to finish...
Eisenhower May Have Met Aliens In New Mexico
JFK wasn't the only President involved with extraterrestrials. Kennedy, who some believe was assassinated because he was about to blow the lid on alien life, may have been following his predecessor's lead.
"An ex-government consultant says the story is true that the 34th commander-in-chief chatted, if you will, with aliens at a New Mexico air base," says the Huffington Post. "[President Eisenhower] reportedly met with Nordic-looking aliens -- supposedly unfolded while the president was vacationing in Palm Springs, Calif., in February 1954."
Nordic-looking? Maybe we'll want to make with these weird space creatures after all. (Check out the whole story, via HuffPo Weird News.)

Pneumonia Outbreak Could Destroy Us All
Remember how the apocalypse was supposed to happen this year? Well, it’s here.
Doctors are battling an antibiotic-resistant bacteria, according to U.S. News and World Report: "In at least 37 states, Washington, D.C., and Puerto Rico, doctors have identified bacteria, including E. coli, that produce Klebsiella pneumoniae carbapenemase, or KPC — an enzyme that makes bacteria resistant to most known treatments." KPC, you should know, is "superbacteria that are hard to kill."
The pneumonia superbug is mostly prevalent in hospitals and has a mortality rate that hovers around 50 percent. Doctors are being advised to keep patients diagnosed with the KPC-producing bacteria isolated. The not-as-bad news is that only seems to go after those with compromised immune systems. There's even more bad news, however...
Whitney Houston's Death Inspires Strange Theory
Whitney Houston's body is barely-even-maybe-cold and the conspiracy theorists are lighting up internet search engines with their odd rumors.
The biggest one -- and perhaps the funniest -- is something I call "The Aaron Ramsey Curse." Ramsey, for those not in the know, is a Welsh footballer and the captain of the national team (ever heard of the team Arsenal?), and he occasionally scores a goal or two in key games.
A writer for the men's site JOE.IE has a theory about the Queen of Pop's death:
"Every time the Welsh international scores for his club, a a momentous death occurs. Sounds ridiculous, right? Let's look at the facts..."
Fake Aliens To Invade 2012 Olympics?
Don’t miss the Olympic Closing Ceremony on August 12th -- it's rumored to be out of this world. That's because there's a strange conspiracy theory going around that a fake alien attack will be staged at the Summer Olympics in London.
A combination of special effects and holographic technology will be used to create the illusion of an alien invasion, the rumor claims. To counter the apparent threat to humanity, the powers that be will declare martial law and usher in a New World Order...
Rumor: Kim Jong-Un Assassinated In China
Kim Jong-Un, successor to his father, Kim Jong-il, as the leader of North Korea, is rumored to be dead following a shooting incident at his hotel in Beijing. The details are scarce -- and unconfirmed by any major news source -- but if it's true, it could set off a war between North Korea and China that might threaten the entire world.
We're still waiting to hear any sort of official word from Chinese or North Korean officials. Here's a rundown of rumors we've seen so far...
Rise Of Ape Planet Begins With Genius Chimp
Ayumu is an extraordinary chimp. He's the son of the famed chimpanzee Ai, who the BBC says has been one of the top ape research subjects for 30 years -- but better yet, he can whimp your butt in a game of Memory.
"Ayumu the chimp can remember the location and order of a set of numbers in less time than it takes the average human to blink," the BBC noted in its ongoing special, Super Smart Animals. "The prodigous [animal] can solve the puzzle in 60 milliseconds, at Kyoto University, Japan."
60 milliseconds? That seems a bit of an exaggeration, but check out the extraordinary video here... and tell us: is this what historians will say was the first sign of the coming Rise of the Planet of the Apes?
