Conference Report: "New in Ufology" (November 14, 2015, Prague)

The bulletin details a conference held on Saturday, November 14, 2015, in Prague, which ran from 10:00 to 16:30. The event emphasized a critical and professional approach to the subjects discussed. The following presentations were given:

• J. Lenková: Presented research ideas for the Plachtín area (Plzeň-sever district), focusing on a site suggested by František Soukup from Tachov, specifically around the "Zlatý lom" (Golden Quarry) near the former glassworks.
• J. Slouka: Discussed the polemic surrounding Moravian pyramids, referencing a review of a book on "Znojmo pyramids" published in the local newspaper Znojemsko. He analyzed the characteristics of pseudoscientific approaches to such topics.
• V. Gusca (presented by L. Šafařík): Clarified the basic elements of the "golden train" legend in Polish Silesia, based on materials from Latvian researcher Vlado Gusca. A link to further information is provided.
• P. Kroupa: Explored prehistoric migration waves, Neanderthal populations in Europe, and their extinction, under the title "How Africans Conquered Europe."
• V. Kačírek: Presented on cryptozoological mysteries, covering various aspects of cryptozoological research, supplemented by a short presentation.
• T. Tom: Discussed monsters and strange beings.
• V. Drobečková: Highlighted the book "Men Who Stare at Goats," noting its overlooked content regarding the military use of parapsychology in the USA. Links to the book and film are provided.
• V. Drobečková: Also reported on experiments with parapsychological abilities using EEG at the University of West Bohemia (ZČU). In 2014, experiments were conducted to capture EEG readings from individuals with exceptional abilities, with findings to be used in further phases in the summer semester of 2016.
• T. Dosoudil: Explained the nature of SHC (Spontaneous Human Combustion), presenting the best-known cases and hypotheses.
• V. Šiška: Presented experiments with SHC conducted in 2015 in cooperation with the Czech Fire Department.

The event was attended by approximately 40 researchers, speakers, and attendees. The bulletin notes that a microphone was used late in the proceedings to improve sound quality in the underground hall. Presentations and recordings will be made available on DVD, depending on their quality.

Upcoming Events and Research Ideas

• "On the Trail of the Golem": An event exploring the streets of Old Prague, formerly the Jewish ghetto, from November 24 to December 7, 2015.
• "Stars of the Pharaohs": An event on Saturday, November 28, 2015, at 15:30 at the Planetarium Ostrava.
• Research Ideas: The bulletin suggests several areas for further research:
• Branišovský Forest (near České Budějovice): This area is popular among those interested in mysteries. The suggestion is to comprehensively analyze all available information and conduct serious research, using Ivan Mackerle's work on the Jihlava glowing corridor as a model for data collection and hypothesis testing.
• Kisvárdská Zone: Information is provided for those interested in a potential expedition to this area, located on the borders of Slovakia, Hungary, and Ukraine. The travel distance from Prague is approximately 830 km, taking about 7:40 hours of driving. The proposed plan involves traveling on the first day, conducting research for days two to four, and returning on the fifth day. Accommodation and meals should be arranged locally or with packed supplies. The expedition would likely involve one to three cars and is suggested for the period from mid-May to the end of August.
