POPSCanadian survives wilderness ordeal on rotting meat " He tried into the night to pry the ATV off with an axe that he had on the vehicle to no avail. He also attempted to lift it up by pounding animal bones into the ground, but his awkward position made that impossible too. "So I'm in survival mode now," he said. "I had to use what I had at my disposal." He stayed alive by eating the animals he had collected, although the rotting flesh made him sick, the Calgary Sun newspaper reported. A hospital official said Hildebrand's injuries are not described as life-threatening, but the newspaper, quoting an Emergency Medical Services official, reported that one leg that was pinned might have to be amputated.

POPSFlying Saucers U.S., British Militaries May Deploy Flying Saucers. GFS (Geoff’s Flying Saucer) Projects' UAV (unmanned aerial vehicle) can soar high in the air, hover, bank and fly over any terrain, making it ideal for military surveillance. It uses an aerodynamic principle known as the Coanda effect to take off vertically from any solid surface. Geoff Hatton was the engineer and inventor who originally conceived of the idea. You can take it down to a foot in diameter and we are told it is fully scaleable up to a large-sized craft,” said David Steel, director of GFS Projects in Peterborough, England.
