im a firm believer in that there are beings out there far more sophisticated and intelligent than us. I also believe that they are in contact with our elites and have bases/places around the globe.
call me crazy but I don't care. if we ever manager to discover a planet with life and creatures not as advanced as us we would monitor them, if useful we would use them for our own use. that's what I believe others have done with our planet. as we know, or planet isn't that old compared to some places in the known universe.
we are constantly finding planets in the habitable zone, but we just don't have the technology to get there and possibly colonize these places. it would be ignorant to think that others entities don't, seeing as though the universe has infinite possibilities. humans in my opinion are not that intelligent species and I think that there are far greater minds out there. I mean we cant even live in harmony with each other in the same towns, cities and definitely not countries and we are heading towards another extinction constantly destroying the only planet we know how to live on.

The thing about this one yet is it seems to have mistified pilots. I've been reading up on it all day and people are stumped. Really interesting seeing as the pentagon released it. I'm not an alien believer but I keep an open mind. Tom has been telling everyone thta this sort of stuff would be released too.

George Weah elected Liberian president Former footballer George Weah is set to become Liberia's president at the second attempt. With most ballots from Tuesday's run-off vote counted, Mr Weah is well ahead of opponent Joseph Boakai. He will succeed Ellen Johnson Sirleaf, Africa's first elected female president, in Liberia's first democratic handover in decades. Mrs Sirleaf defeated Mr Weah in the presidential election run-off in 2005, after the end of a brutal civil war. As news of Mr Weah's victory emerged on Thursday, his supporters began celebrating in the capital Monrovia. The former football star's campaign - under the Coalition for Democratic Change banner - appealed to the youth vote, while incumbent Vice President Mr Boakai was seen as old and out of touch. But Mr Weah's election is not without controversy, as his running mate is Jewel Taylor, former wife of the warlord and ex-President Charles Taylor, who is serving a jail sentence in the UK for war crimes. Who is George Weah? When sports stars make a run at politics Mr Weah, 51, won the first round of the presidential election in October with 38.4% of the vote, compared with the 28.8% won by second-placed Mr Boakai, 73. The failure of any candidate to secure an outright majority forced the run-off. The National Elections Commission (NEC) said on Thursday that with 98.1% of the run-off vote counted, Mr Weah had won 61.5% of the vote while Mr Boakai was far behind with 38.5%. Mr Weah played for a string of football clubs, including AC Milan, Chelsea and Paris St-Germain, and is the only African footballer to have won both Fifa World Player of the Year and the Ballon D'Or. He entered politics after his retirement from the game in 2002 and is currently a senator in Liberia's parliament. Liberia, founded by freed US slaves in the 19th Century, has not had a smooth transfer of power from one elected president to another since 1944. Legal challenges delayed the vote to replace Ms Sirleaf, and turnout was low. Election officials put turnout at 56%. More than two million people were eligible to cast their ballots in the nation of 4.6 million people. Ms Sirleaf took office in 2006, after her predecessor President Taylor was forced out by rebels in 2003, ending a long civil war. Taylor is serving his 50-year prison sentence in the UK for war crimes related to the conflict in neighbouring Sierra Leone. www.bbc.com/news/world-africa-42507405

Ronaldinho: Brazilian World Cup winner retires from football Brazilian World Cup winner Ronaldinho has retired from football, although he has not played a game since 2015. Ronaldinho, 37, was part of the triumphant Brazil 2002 World Cup squad, won the Champions League in 2006 with Barcelona and won the Balon d'Or in 2005. His brother and agent Roberto Assis confirmed the retirement on Tuesday and announced a series of tribute events. "He has stopped, it is ended," Assis said. We will do various events in Brazil, Europe and Asia and, of course, we are arranging something with the Brazilian team as well." Ronaldinho started his career with Gremio in Brazil before moving to Paris St-Germain in 2001. After five years at Barcelona, he also had a spell at AC Milan where he won the Serie A title in 2010-11. He moved to Brazilian side Flamengo in 2011 before spells at Atletico Mineiro, Queretaro in Mexico and Fluminense. www.bbc.com/sport/football/42712179

Ronaldinho is such a big 'what if' for us. Would we still have signed Ronaldo? Would he have been as good as at Barca? Would we have won another CL? I like to think the answer would have been yes to all.
