15 Mind Blowing Signs Aliens Actually Exist <<<Click >+Plus many other interesting subjects (?) U won't know unless U >Click (lol)

Aliens. Extraterrestrials. Space Men. Whatever you call them, sightings have been around since man first gazed into the skies. And what follows are 15 signs that just may prove they very well exist..







Our galaxy, the Milky Way galaxy, measures up to 120,000 light-years across and contains about 400 billion stars. It’s said that about half of these stars include at least one planet within their orbit. That's a lot of planets, and a good chance for alien life we haven't yet discovered.
But it gets even more interesting when you learn that, in 2001, scientist using the "Drake Theory" determined that thousands of these same planets host the ideal conditions to support life. In the game of numbers, those are winning odds for the prospect of alien beings.

The Great Plains of the United States produce the most beautiful thunderstorms, supercells, and unique cloud structures in the world. I spent the summer of 2013 on the northern Great Plains photographing some of these storms.
Shot in Wyoming and South Dakota.

Mike:
I have been watching a few shows lately that show proof of the existence of Aliens among us...

However, The American government chooses to deny there existence....

But I beg to differ otherwise!...

For instance....
Where did they get all of this "New" technology?...
It didn't just fall into there laps... hehehehehe...

Now...
They have a rocket that can take off.... and land right side up....
they did a test not to long ago... (Saw it on the news)
That use to be an impossible task... now... its possible...Hmmmmm
Makes you wonder doesn't it...?????

Just like the cars are now all electronically controlled...
They can even park themselves at the curb....

I'm guessing all these "Ignition issues" with GM is directly related to some virus in the programming.... That they don't know how to get rid of it....

So many signs...
Yet so many... NON believers!

^ Thanks Moderator 'David for your post & that you have a open mind about what maybe or is out there in the 'Universe.


The BeachBum Family really believes that our Space is really from another planet. If all the aliens out there are like 'Space (>?<), we believe it would be better for all on Planet 'Earth.


His Mother dropped 'space off @ his grandfathers when he was only a few weeks old & she never returned : ( No one in the beach bum family has ever met her. His grandfather said it was like 'Space just fell to earth on his doorstep (lol) That's how he got the name `Space <lol>4>Sure<

5 Things That Will Cost Less in 2014

by Updated 2nd 2014 1:15PM CNBC 2014 1:17PM

Think you missed out on big holiday savings? The post-holiday clearance rush may be getting long in tooth, but some purchases are better left until now -- after the New Year's Day holiday.

Despite those enticing pitches -- "We're clearing out!" "Our biggest sale of the year!" "Didn't get what you want? We can fix that!" -- experts say sales aren't yet at their best for many items. Waiting for 2014 could mean better deals on purchases as varied as Caribbean cruises and winter coats.

"Everything, if you can wait, will be priced better in January," said Michelle Madhok, chief executive of sale-tracking site SheFinds.com. "Because people have access to a wider variety of items and are able to shop smarter, we're seeing more frequent price reductions."

Some are short-term savings, while others are part of a longer-term downward trend:

Cars

For automakers, 2013 was a banner sales year -- which could make 2014 even more competitive. "The pressure is on car companies to keep up the good news," said Lincoln Merrihew, vice president of transportation for market research firm Millward Brown Digital. Drivers are likely to see more money on the table as automakers fight for sales and market share. Truck deals in particular could be excellent, with launches such as the GMC Canyon and Chevrolet Colorado fueling competition in a market segment where supply already outweighs demand, he said.

On the used-car side, prices also have been dropping. According to Edmunds.com, the average used car sold for $15,617 during the third quarter of 2013, down 2.8 percent from the previous quarter. Deals are likely to get even better in 2014 as more cars come off their three-year leases, flooding the market, said Merrihew.

Winter Coats

If you're in the market for outerwear, there's a short window in January when coats and jackets are at their cheapest, said Madhok. Nordstrom (JWN) and Eddie Bauer are among the brands whose discounts have already reached as much as 60 percent off. Don't wait too long -- by February, selection is minimal, if stores haven't already shipped the few pieces left out to outlets, she said.

Textbooks

In March 2013, a Supreme Court ruling upheld consumers' right to resell products they have purchased. At the heart of the case: a student who bought less-expensive international editions of textbooks, which he later resold on eBay (EBAY).

Shoppers are likely to see more of these inexpensive texts on the market in 2014, both from international sellers hawking new versions and students reselling used copies. Savings can be impressive. On Amazon.com (AMZN), a new U.S. copy of the 12th edition of "Principles of Risk Management and Insurance" runs $212; a like-new global edition is as little as $126.

But international textbooks aren't always a good buy. "They're usually printed on very flimsy paper that's incredibly thin," said Mark Kantrowitz, senior vice president for Edvisors Network. The book might fall apart mid-semester. Page numbering may also differ from U.S. edition. "So if the professor says read pages 33 to 53 for tomorrow, you have to figure out what that really means," he said. Renting a textbook or buying a used U.S. edition might be a better value.

TVs

Missed the $200 Black Friday TV doorbusters? Don't worry -- in January, "we're probably going to see even better deals than on Black Friday," said Brent Shelton, a spokesman for deal site FatWallet.com. Manufacturers often introduce new models during the International Consumer Electronics Show next week, prompting price drops on the soon-to-be old models. Then pre-Super Bowl sales kick in. The resulting discounts are often as deep as those on Black Friday, but encompass a wider range of brands and models, Shelton said.

Caribbean Travel

Last-minute cruise deals for January have already dropped below $60 per night in some cases, which represents discounts of more than 50 percent. Expect Caribbean cruises to stay cheap in 2014, as lines launch new routes and bring new ships, such as Carnival (CCL) Splendor and Norwegian (NCLH) Getaway. "They have a lot more berths to fill," said Stephanie Serino, a luxury cruise consultant with Tzell Travel Group in New York.

Airfare is likely to get cheaper, too. JetBlue (JBLU) recently announced it would expand service to the Caribbean, adding five new routes to two new destinations, Port-au-Prince in Haiti and Port of Spain in Trinidad and Tobago. "They come into the market and they take over the market," said Serino. That forces legacy carriers to compete with better-priced fares.

Cool Second Chance To See Lyrid Meteor Shower

Second Chance To See Lyrid Meteor Shower



CAPE CANAVERAL, Florida -- If you missed the peak of the Lyrid meteor shower last night, don't worry. You will be able to get a second chance to see it tonight, Tuesday, April 22, 2014 and into the morning of April 23. Although last night was the best night to watch the Lyrid meteor shower, tonight's meteor shower will be nearly as spectacular as last night's peak.


While many people will be focused terrestrially on April 22 for Earth Day 2014, night sky watchers will focus up to the heavens early that morning for a spectacular display of the Lyrid meteor shower which peaks the night of April 21-22, 2014.




Lyrids are pieces of debris from the periodic Comet C/1861 G1 Thatcher and have been observed for more than 2,600 years. In mid-April of each year, Earth runs into the stream of cosmic debris from the comet which causes the Lyrid meteor shower.




For the 2014 Lyrids meteor shower, a third-quarter moon will illuminate the night sky on April 22 which will continue to diminish in illumination through April 25.





When to Watch the Meteor Shower:



Lyrids can be seen tonight through April 25, 2014.


Timing is crucial this year if you want to enjoy the meteor shower in all its splendor. Set your alarm clock early, because pre-dawn viewing on the days after April 21 are ideal this year.






Where to Watch the Meteor Shower:






The Lyrid meteor shower will be viewable all over the world, with best rates seen just before dawn at the location where you're watching the skies. The number of Lyrids are very unpredictable, with peak meteor rates between 10-100 per hour. Cloudless skies and far away from city lights are ideal for watching meteor showers.






Where to Look for the Meteor Shower:


Lyrids will appear directly overhead at 4 a.m. the viewer's local time.




You can tell if a meteor belongs to a particular shower by tracing back its path to see if it originates near a specific point in the sky, called the radiant. The constellation in which the radiant is located gives the shower its name, and in this case, Lyrids appear to come from a point in the constellation Lyra.

Question for you Space?? Have you ever seen a UFO? I have seen 3 each were different, one was from a Plane window, one was a Meteor I think, and one was so big you would think a 1/4 mile long. It crossed the interstate and extended up the shoulders at least 300 feet. The family was along and that night there were quite a few Cars that saw it to. Next days news said it was part of a space station. BS......
