Bedford Downtown Dead event 10/30/09


hello folks:
I had the dubious honor of Presenting The Evidence we collected from the Lawrence County Museum to the local event in bedford to the downtown dead event on Friday october 30th, 2009. The presentation of the evidence that south indy paranormal left the attendees in awe and amazement. It was my understanding that anyone who had a tie to the museum was not aware of the happenings that was going on in the museum after the doors were closed and everyone had left. We believe that the museum is in the process of a residual haunting and continues to go about thier daily and nightly routine without any interuptions. South indy paranormal was really fortunate to catch this evidence and present it to a standing room only event.

i want to thank Rowena and her Staff at the museum for all thier great help in this investigation and we hope to return soon for another in depth look at whats going on in the museum.

Tonight I had the privilege of interviewing one of Indianapolis'
paranormal teams, South Indy Paranormal. I actually had the opportunity to interview them on their live radio show. This was my first experience with an Internet radio show. If you have the chance to listen to one of their shows you can find them on Blog Talk Radio Mondays from 10:30pm to 12:30am.

The members I had the opportunity to speak with this evening were Dennis, Terri, Tony, Jason, and Kat. Dennis and Terri are the founders for the group. Dennis is also the Tech manager. Tony is the team's case manager. Jason is the PR person as well as tech assistant. Kat is their sensitive/medium out of Washington state. Their team was established in mid December 2008 and their team consists of 8 members.

All paranormal investigators have their reasons for getting interested in the paranormal. South Indy Paranormal is no different. Their reasons range from being the team skeptic, trying to find out all the information one can and hoping to see something to make one believe to lights turning on and off by themselves.

South Indy Paranormal's list of equipment: 4 infrared day/night vision cameras, 2 K-II meters, 3 EMF detectors, 4 digital voice recorders, 4 digital cameras, a digital camcorder, camcorder, DVR system with 500GB hard drive, duct tape, and an Olympus multi directional recorder which was donated to their team by Steve Abney of Stone Graphics paranormal out of Iowa.

When it is time to investigate a property South Indy Paranormal has a certain way they go about investigating. There is an interview process with the potential client. Then they research the property and set a time to come out and investigate. When they get to the property there is paperwork that needs to be signed by the client and the group. Privacy statements and liability waivers. They ten ask the client if they want to stay or leave. This is totally left up to the client. Before the actual investigating begins they do an EMF sweep of the property so they have a base reading to go by. When it gets dark, they go lights out! The investigating begins.

South Indy Paranormal has had several investigations. They have had two residential investigations. They have investigated Spring Mill and Lawrence County Museum. This group is a close knit group who have fun while striving to do their best when it comes to investigating. They do not charge their clients to come out and investigate. They do not have membership dues either. All of their equipment, shirts, hats, etc...have been purchased by the founders of this team.

They have been working as volunteers at the Hanna House this month helping with their haunted house. Two of their members are monsters in the haunted house and they also helped with the construction. On Friday and Saturday nights from 7pm - midnight during the month of October they have a booth out in front of the Hanna House. They are selling glow sticks and taking pictures of people with the guillotine. Which all proceeds benefit the historic Hanna House. Coming this Christmas they will be helping with Coats for Kids and Toys for Tots. They insist on giving back to their community.

South Indy Paranormal can be reached at their website. Check out their website, look at their pictures and videos. You can also listen to EVPs. You can also call them at 317-641-0005, you can leave them a message and they will return you call. You can also email Tony, case manager, at itzmetony@comcast.net.

'Dirty Dancing' star Patrick Swayze dies at 57

LOS ANGELES – Patrick Swayze, the hunky actor who danced his way into viewers' hearts with "Dirty Dancing" and then broke them with "Ghost," died Monday after a battle with pancreatic cancer. He was 57.
"Patrick Swayze passed away peacefully today with family at his side after facing the challenges of his illness for the last 20 months," said a statement released Monday evening by his publicist, Annett Wolf. No other details were given.
Fans of the actor were saddened to learn in March 2008 that Swayze was suffering from a particularly deadly form of cancer.
He had kept working despite the diagnosis, putting together a memoir with his wife and shooting "The Beast," an A&E drama series for which he had already made the pilot. It drew a respectable 1.3 million viewers when the 13 episodes ran in 2009, but A&E said it had reluctantly decided not to renew it for a second season.
Swayze said he opted not to use painkilling drugs while making "The Beast" because they would have taken the edge off his performance. He acknowledged that time might be running out given the grim nature of the disease.
When he first went public with the illness, some reports gave him only weeks to live, but his doctor said his situation was "considerably more optimistic" than that.
"I'd say five years is pretty wishful thinking," Swayze told ABC's Barbara Walters in early 2009. "Two years seems likely if you're going to believe statistics. I want to last until they find a cure, which means I'd better get a fire under it."
A three-time Golden Globe nominee, Swayze became a star with his performance as the misunderstood bad-boy Johnny Castle in "Dirty Dancing." As the son of a choreographer who began his career in musical theater, he seemed a natural to play the role.
A coming-of-age romance starring Jennifer Grey as an idealistic young woman on vacation with her family and Swayze as the Catskills resort's sexy (and much older) dance instructor, the film made great use of both his grace on his feet and his muscular physique.
It became an international phenomenon in the summer of 1987, spawning albums, an Oscar-winning hit song in "(I've Had) the Time of My Life," stage productions and a sequel, 2004's "Dirty Dancing: Havana Nights," in which he made a cameo.
Swayze performed and co-wrote a song on the soundtrack, the ballad "She's Like the Wind," inspired by his wife, Lisa Niemi. The film also gave him the chance to utter the now-classic line, "Nobody puts Baby in a corner."
And it allowed him to poke fun at himself on a "Saturday Night Live" episode, in which he played a wannabe Chippendales dancer alongside the corpulent — and frighteningly shirtless — Chris Farley.
A major crowdpleaser, the film drew only mixed reviews from critics, though Vincent Canby wrote in The New York Times, "Given the limitations of his role, that of a poor but handsome sex-object abused by the rich women at Kellerman's Mountain House, Mr. Swayze is also good. ... He's at his best — as is the movie — when he's dancing."
Swayze followed that up with the 1989 action flick "Road House," in which he played a bouncer at a rowdy bar. But it was his performance in 1990's "Ghost" that showed his vulnerable, sensitive side. He starred as a murdered man trying to communicate with his fiancee (Demi Moore) — with great frustration and longing — through a psychic played by Whoopi Goldberg.
Swayze said at the time that he fought for the role of Sam Wheat (director Jerry Zucker wanted Kevin Kline) but once he went in for an audition and read six scenes, he got it.
Why did he want the part so badly? "It made me cry four or five times," he said of Bruce Joel Rubin's Oscar-winning script in an AP interview.
"Ghost" provided yet another indelible musical moment: Swayze and Moore sensually molding pottery together to the strains of the Righteous Brothers' "Unchained Melody." It also earned a best-picture nomination and a supporting-actress Oscar for Goldberg, who said she wouldn't have won if it weren't for Swayze.
"When I won my Academy Award, the only person I really thanked was Patrick," Goldberg said in March 2008 on the ABC daytime talk show "The View."
Swayze himself earned three Golden Globe nominations, for "Dirty Dancing," "Ghost" and 1995's "To Wong Foo, Thanks for Everything! Julie Newmar," which further allowed him to toy with his masculine image. The role called for him to play a drag queen on a cross-country road trip alongside Wesley Snipes and John Leguizamo.
His heartthrob status almost kept him from being considered for the role of Vida Boheme.
"I couldn't get seen on it because everyone viewed me as terminally heterosexually masculine-macho," he told the AP then. But he transformed himself so completely that when his screen test was sent to Steven Spielberg, whose Amblin pictures produced "To Wong Foo," Spielberg didn't recognize him.
Among his earlier films, Swayze was part of the star-studded lineup of up-and-comers in Francis Ford Coppola's 1983 adaptation of S.E. Hinton's novel "The Outsiders," alongside Rob Lowe, Tom Cruise, Matt Dillon, Ralph Macchio, Emilio Estevez and Diane Lane. Swayze played Darrel "Dary" Curtis, the oldest of three wayward brothers — and essentially the father figure — in a poor family in small-town Oklahoma.
Other '80s films included "Red Dawn," "Grandview U.S.A." (for which he also provided choreography) and "Youngblood," once more with Lowe, as Canadian hockey teammates.
In the '90s, he made such eclectic films as "Point Break" (1991), in which he played the leader of a band of bank-robbing surfers, and the family Western "Tall Tale" (1995), in which he starred as Pecos Bill. He appeared on the cover of People magazine as its "Sexiest Man Alive" in 1991, but his career tapered off toward the end of the 1990s, when he also had stay in rehab for alcohol abuse. In 2001, he appeared in the cult favorite "Donnie Darko," and in 2003 he returned to the New York stage with "Chicago"; 2006 found him in the musical "Guys and Dolls" in London.
Swayze was born in 1952 in Houston, the son of Jesse Swayze and choreographer Patsy Swayze, whose films include "Urban Cowboy."
He played football but also was drawn to dance and theater, performing with the Feld, Joffrey and Harkness Ballets and appearing on Broadway as Danny Zuko in "Grease." But he turned to acting in 1978 after a series of injuries.
Within a couple years of moving to Los Angeles, he made his debut in the roller-disco movie "Skatetown, U.S.A." The eclectic cast included Scott Baio, Flip Wilson, Maureen McCormack and Billy Barty.
Swayze had a couple of movies in the works when his diagnosis was announced, including the drama "Powder Blue," starring Jessica Biel, Forest Whitaker and his younger brother, Don, which was scheduled for release this year.
Off-screen, he was an avid conservationist who was moved by his time in Africa to shine a light on "man's greed and absolute unwillingness to operate according to Mother Nature's laws," he told the AP in 2004.
Swayze was married since 1975 to Niemi, a fellow dancer who took lessons with his mother; they met when he was 19 and she was 15. A licensed pilot, Niemi would fly her husband from Los Angeles to Northern California for treatment at Stanford University Medical Center, People magazine reported in a cover story.
