| The term ‘extraterrestrial’ is not quite correct. There is no evidence to prove that aliens come from other planets. No one knows where they come from. It is not ruled out that they come from a civilization of parallel worlds, or from the ocean. Modern science knows very little about what’s happening at ocean’s depths. US satellites took several infrared photographs of Mexico, Chile and Bolivia in 1993. The pictures showed large objects up to 450 kilometers in diameter – the flying cities. This is where they all come from |

The difference in height became striking when she went to school |
| What America Owes Mexico |

| The United States owes much to Mexico. In the 19th century the United States, which was experiencing great industrial, technological and economic growth, sought to expand to the Pacific Ocean. But, there was one big problem. Mexico was in the way. Western land belonged to Mexico. So, the United States invented a doctrine called Manifest Destiny which said that the nation which could better use the land had the right to it. The United States forcibly took what are now California, Arizona, New Mexico, and Texas from Mexico. This was raw aggression and it was morally wrong. |

| As soon as Dmitry Medvedev offered to extend the presidential term from four to six years, rumors appeared immediately saying that the suggestion had been made to bring Vladimir Putin back in the Kremlin and make him stay there as long as possible.
