SOMETHING Strange Captured Over US Military Installation (UFO?) Multiple other UFOs & News 4/29/2018
Alien Bros is a team of UFO researchers dedicated to bringing you the latest in alien related news and anything else that seems paranormal with a specific interest in military bases like Area 51 and Kapustin Yar. The first UFO Sighting we share comes courtesy of our friend UFO MAN and was captured over Baja California on April 12th of 2018. It appears to show multiple orb UFOs in a straight line and multiplying over Mexico. Next we share a UFO sighting that I personally captured myself over Camp David and Near Ft.Detrick on April 22nd 2018. These UFOs were making very strange maneuvers around this military installation and quite frankly how the Air Force did not detect them is stunning to me and shows clear signs of a cover-up about their knowledge of these UFO sightings. For our third sighting we share a video originally posted by our friend The Hidden Underbelly 2,0 of a burning UFO craft that looks to be made of multiple UFOs over St.Petersburg Russia posted on April 20th 2018 and we also compare it to sightings from 2017 as well. Finally we talk about a news topic regarding exo-planets and their gravity and how it may be affecting the search for alien life. We also give our own thoughts on the subject and debate the concept. In regards to all these UFO sightings it is possible this is something military maybe Air Force , Army , NAVY , Coast Guard , National Guard , etc. I just have a feeling this unknown object is something ET ( extraterrestrial ). FYI Rumors stemming from the Pentagon UFO footage released by Louis Elizondo and Christopher Mellon which say that a NASA employee has handed over two pieces of classified UFO footage that NASA found strange and will not be recorded in FLIR thermal like the AATIP footage was. Is the government and the Air Force covering up UFOs? What does the United States Navy know about them? This government cover-up needs to end. The evidence is amazing and pointing someone in the shadows pulling the strings while we suffer under their rule. We the people need to band together and truly fight for answers to the UFO phenomenon and end this government cover up forever. 2017 is over it's a new year UFOs are real and we have multiple pieces of UFO evidence to prove it and the government knows it. The Pentagon UFO footage from December should have proven that to the entire world. UAP are real and their purpose is unknown. We here at Alien Bros touch on all topics relating to the alien phenomenon and do our best to make sure you guys, the viewers, get every detail possible.

Drug-Taking Child Prostitutes Work The Streets Of A World Cup City
Children as young as 12 are selling themselves for sex for as little as 80p in one of Brazil's World Cup cities, a Sky News investigation has found.
On the backstreets of Recife, in northeastern Brazil, we met a group of children aged between 12 and 17 who were sniffing glue. Some of the children were involved in prostitution.
Glue bottle in hand, 12-year-old Elaine said she did not always feel safe and bad things sometimes happened on the street.
We were told that for 10 to 20 Reais (£2.55 to £5.10) she would allow men to take her home, to motels, or even to the local swamp for sex.

Murderous Minds: Bonnie & Clyde | Outlaws Till The End...
Due to their glamorization in fiction, people are often unaware about the dark reality of Bonnie & Clyde. Far from being a loved up couple, they were in fact cold-blooded murderers who stopped at nothing to evade the law and pursued the finer things in life that they believed they deserved.

Tummy Tuck 4 Month Update | Ups & Downs, Is It Worth It?
*UPDATE* 7/16/17
The Plastic Surgeon and cost are no longer listed, as he has passed away.
Hey YouTubers, just sharing my latest update!
MY Complete TUMMY TUCK Playlist!
Lean Bod Band **Discount Code: Rachel**
*I had a Tummy Tuck with Muscle Repair and Lipo on my flanks.
Abdominoplasty (Tummy Tuck)
An abdominoplasty, also known as tummy tuck, is the surgical procedure designed to firm and smooth the abdomen. This cosmetic procedure removes excess fat and loose skin from the abdomen and tightens the abdominal wall. The result is a flatter, tighter abdominal profile.
Liposuction
Liposuction is a surgical procedure that removes deposits of excess fat from specific areas of the body, face or neck. Liposuction can be used to slim the hips and thighs, flatten the abdomen, shape the calves and ankles or eliminate a double chin.
I started my research online just googling tummy tuck and Plastic Surgeon in Atlanta, GA. After reviewing multiple websites, doctors and procedures in Atlanta I honestly was not impressed. So, I decided to aim my search to my local area and I found a doctor that peaked my interest. I've been looking for years, but now I'm researching. In my opinion this is not a decision that happens overnight, you have to do your research.
As mentioned in this video, I frequently visit:
Real Self is a website to find doctors, get information and read/see actual experiences and reviews (good/bad) of people just like us interested in plastic surgery.
1. Finding a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon is not hard. Once you find who you are interested in, search their name. There are many websites that will do the search for you.
This is an important step, because a licensed medical doctor, can technically perform any procedure whether they are not specialized in the area. In my research, I have found that it's possible for an OBGYN doctor, an Oral Surgeon, Dermatologist etc. perform procedures out of their spectrum. For example: SmartLipo. This is not against the law, but I don't know about you, I don't want to go to an oral surgeon (teeth) for liposuction. For new teeth, yes! LOL. Going to a professional with years of experience would be the better choice.
Also, pictures are key too! If you can't see the work, then that should worry you. Some PS have pictures via their websites or in their office. Or at the least, check out realself.com and look at your PS's patient reviews pictures.
Lastly, go to your state medical board website to lookup any derogatory disciplinary actions and to verify qualifications of any medical licensed professional.
2. Liposuction alone, will not help with the loose skin I have surrounding my abdomen. Yes, it can help areas that aren't loose for contouring. Exercise will not help either. Yes I can loose fat, and gain stronger muscles, but my skin won't tighten.
Smart Lipo, is definitely not an option either. As my PS explained to me, it would be a waste of my money. I would still be unhappy because the skin would be hanging even more. Like I mentioned earlier Smart Lipo can be performed by an eye doctor. LOL. NO THANKS!
3. I forgot to mention in the video, I'm afraid of the pain/recovery. From what the PS said and all the personal reviews I've read, the worst days are the first two. Of course, you are prescribed pain medicine and guidelines for after the surgery. I've just never been under in that fashion, so I'm nervous. Dr. Cochran was reassuring of the recovery time, but I do realize everyone is different.
Suspense: The Twist / The Visitor / The Blue Hour
The program's heyday was in the early 1950s, when radio actor, producer and director Elliott Lewis took over (still during the Wilcox/Autolite run). Here the material reached new levels of sophistication. The writing was taut, and the casting, which had always been a strong point of the series (featuring such film stars as Orson Welles, Joseph Cotten, Henry Fonda, Humphrey Bogart, Judy Garland, Ronald Colman, Marlene Dietrich, Eve McVeagh, Lena Horne, and Cary Grant), took an unexpected turn when Lewis expanded the repertory to include many of radio's famous drama and comedy stars — often playing against type — such as Jack Benny. Jim and Marian Jordan of Fibber McGee and Molly were heard in the episode, Backseat Driver, which originally aired February 3, 1949.
The highest production values enhanced Suspense, and many of the shows retain their power to grip and entertain. At the time he took over Suspense, Lewis was familiar to radio fans for playing Frankie Remley, the wastrel guitar-playing sidekick to Phil Harris in The Phil Harris-Alice Faye Show. On the May 10, 1951 Suspense, Lewis reversed the roles with Death on My Hands: A bandleader (Harris) is horrified when an autograph-seeking fan accidentally shoots herself and dies in his hotel room, and a vocalist (Faye) tries to help him as the townfolk call for vigilante justice against him.
With the rise of television and the departures of Lewis and Autolite, subsequent producers (Antony Ellis, William N. Robson and others) struggled to maintain the series despite shrinking budgets, the availability of fewer name actors, and listenership decline. To save money, the program frequently used scripts first broadcast by another noteworthy CBS anthology, Escape. In addition to these tales of exotic adventure, Suspense expanded its repertoire to include more science fiction and supernatural content. By the end of its run, the series was remaking scripts from the long-canceled program The Mysterious Traveler. A time travel tale like Robert Arthur's The Man Who Went Back to Save Lincoln or a thriller about a death ray-wielding mad scientist would alternate with more run-of-the-mill crime dramas.

Suspense: 'Til the Day I Die / Statement of Employee Henry Wilson / Three Times Murder
The aim for thrillers is to keep the audience alert and on the edge of their seats. The protagonist in these films is set against a problem -- an escape, a mission, or a mystery. No matter what sub-genre a thriller film falls into, it will emphasize the danger that the protagonist faces. The tension with the main problem is built on throughout the film and leads to a highly stressful climax. The cover-up of important information from the viewer, and fight and chase scenes are common methods in all of the thriller subgenres, although each subgenre has its own unique characteristics and methods.[8]
A thriller provides the sudden rush of emotions, excitement, sense of suspense and exhilaration that drive the narrative, sometimes subtly with peaks and lulls, sometimes at a constant, breakneck pace thrills. In this genre, the objective is to deliver a story with sustained tension, surprise, and a constant sense of impending doom. It keeps the audience cliff-hanging at the edge of their seats as the plot builds towards a climax. Thrillers tend to be fast-moving, psychological, threatening, mysterious and at times involve larger-scale villainy such as espionage, terrorism and conspiracy.
Thrillers may be defined by the primary mood that they elicit: fearful excitement. In short, if it thrills, it is a thriller. As the introduction to a major anthology explains:
...Thrillers provide such a rich literary feast. There are all kinds. The legal thriller, spy thriller, action-adventure thriller, medical thriller, police thriller, romantic thriller, historical thriller, political thriller, religious thriller, high-tech thriller, military thriller. The list goes on and on, with new variations constantly being invented. In fact, this openness to expansion is one of the genre's most enduring characteristics. But what gives the variety of thrillers a common ground is the intensity of emotions they create, particularly those of apprehension and exhilaration, of excitement and breathlessness, all designed to generate that all-important thrill. By definition, if a thriller doesn't thrill, it's not doing its job.
—James Patterson, June 2006, Introduction, Thriller[9]
Writer Vladimir Nabokov, in his lectures at Cornell University, said: In an Anglo-Saxon thriller, the villain is generally punished, and the strong silent man generally wins the weak babbling girl, but there is no governmental law in Western countries to ban a story that does not comply with a fond tradition, so that we always hope that the wicked but romantic fellow will escape scot-free and the good but dull chap will be finally snubbed by the moody heroine.
Swingers: Hooking Up With Strangers
Some couples say swinging, instead of cheating, has saved their relationships.
The Great Gildersleeve: Gildy's New Car / Leroy Has the Flu / Gildy Needs a Hobby
The Great Gildersleeve (1941--1957), initially written by Leonard Lewis Levinson, was one of broadcast history's earliest spin-off programs. Built around Throckmorton Philharmonic Gildersleeve, a character who had been a staple on the classic radio situation comedy Fibber McGee and Molly, first introduced on Oct. 3, 1939, ep. #216. The Great Gildersleeve enjoyed its greatest success in the 1940s. Actor Harold Peary played the character during its transition from the parent show into the spin-off and later in a quartet of feature films released at the height of the show's popularity.
On Fibber McGee and Molly, Peary's Gildersleeve was a pompous windbag who became a consistent McGee nemesis. You're a haa-aa-aa-aard man, McGee! became a Gildersleeve catchphrase. The character was given several conflicting first names on Fibber McGee and Molly, and on one episode his middle name was revealed as Philharmonic. Gildy admits as much at the end of Gildersleeve's Diary on the Fibber McGee and Molly series (Oct. 22, 1940).
He soon became so popular that Kraft Foods—looking primarily to promote its Parkay margarine spread — sponsored a new series with Peary's Gildersleeve as the central, slightly softened and slightly befuddled focus of a lively new family.
Premiering on August 31, 1941, The Great Gildersleeve moved the title character from the McGees' Wistful Vista to Summerfield, where Gildersleeve now oversaw his late brother-in-law's estate and took on the rearing of his orphaned niece and nephew, Marjorie (originally played by Lurene Tuttle and followed by Louise Erickson and Mary Lee Robb) and Leroy Forester (Walter Tetley). The household also included a cook named Birdie. Curiously, while Gildersleeve had occasionally spoken of his (never-present) wife in some Fibber episodes, in his own series the character was a confirmed bachelor.
In a striking forerunner to such later television hits as Bachelor Father and Family Affair, both of which are centered on well-to-do uncles taking in their deceased siblings' children, Gildersleeve was a bachelor raising two children while, at first, administering a girdle manufacturing company (If you want a better corset, of course, it's a Gildersleeve) and then for the bulk of the show's run, serving as Summerfield's water commissioner, between time with the ladies and nights with the boys. The Great Gildersleeve may have been the first broadcast show to be centered on a single parent balancing child-rearing, work, and a social life, done with taste and genuine wit, often at the expense of Gildersleeve's now slightly understated pomposity.
Many of the original episodes were co-written by John Whedon, father of Tom Whedon (who wrote The Golden Girls), and grandfather of Deadwood scripter Zack Whedon and Joss Whedon (creator of Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Firefly and Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog).
The key to the show was Peary, whose booming voice and facility with moans, groans, laughs, shudders and inflection was as close to body language and facial suggestion as a voice could get. Peary was so effective, and Gildersleeve became so familiar a character, that he was referenced and satirized periodically in other comedies and in a few cartoons.

Premiering on August 31, 1941, The Great Gildersleeve moved the title character from the McGees' Wistful Vista to Summerfield, where Gildersleeve now oversaw his late brother-in-law's estate and took on the rearing of his orphaned niece and nephew, Marjorie (originally played by Lurene Tuttle and followed by Louise Erickson and Mary Lee Robb) and Leroy Forester (Walter Tetley). The household also included a cook named Birdie. Curiously, while Gildersleeve had occasionally spoken of his (never-present) wife in some Fibber episodes, in his own series the character was a confirmed bachelor.
In a striking forerunner to such later television hits as Bachelor Father and Family Affair, both of which are centered on well-to-do uncles taking in their deceased siblings' children, Gildersleeve was a bachelor raising two children while, at first, administering a girdle manufacturing company (If you want a better corset, of course, it's a Gildersleeve) and then for the bulk of the show's run, serving as Summerfield's water commissioner, between time with the ladies and nights with the boys. The Great Gildersleeve may have been the first broadcast show to be centered on a single parent balancing child-rearing, work, and a social life, done with taste and genuine wit, often at the expense of Gildersleeve's now slightly understated pomposity.
Many of the original episodes were co-written by John Whedon, father of Tom Whedon (who wrote The Golden Girls), and grandfather of Deadwood scripter Zack Whedon and Joss Whedon (creator of Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Firefly and Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog).
The key to the show was Peary, whose booming voice and facility with moans, groans, laughs, shudders and inflection was as close to body language and facial suggestion as a voice could get. Peary was so effective, and Gildersleeve became so familiar a character, that he was referenced and satirized periodically in other comedies and in a few cartoons.
