— “We didn't expect to see this level of destruction to the Great Barrier Reef for another 30 years. In the north, I saw hundreds of reefs in which literally two-thirds of the reefs were dying and are now dead.”
- Terry Hughes, Ph.D., Prof. and Dir. of Australia's Government-Funded Center for Coral Reef Studies, James Cook University, Townsville City, QLD, Australia
— “I've been photographing this area of the reef for several years now
and what we’re seeing is unprecedented. ... nearly 100% of the corals are bleaching, and who knows how many will recover?”
- Brett Monroe Garner, Photographer, Greenpeace Int'l.
The Great Barrier Reef in Australia is suffering its worst coral bleaching ever recorded with 93% damaged to dying. Image by AFP.The Great Barrier Reef, off the coast of Queensland in northeastern Australia, (red underline) is the largest living organism on Earth, even visible from outer space. The 1400-mile-long (2,300 km) ecosystem is made up of some 3,000 individual reefs produced from over 600 types of hard and soft coral. Coral reefs are not plants. Corals are the product of billions of tiny organisms known as coral polyps. Even though coral reefs make up only 1/10th of 1% of the Earth's surface, the reefs are where 25% of all marine life live for protection.

“This (UFO) event should be immediately classified
since it would create mass panic amongst the general population
and destroy one's belief in the church.”
- Churchill bodyguard, quoting Churchill as told to grandson, a U. K. scientist
American General Dwight D. Eisenhower with U. K.'s Prime Minister Winston Churchill during World War II in 1943 discussed UFOs, according to MoD release.
Reprinted on February 16, 2017 / original Earthfiles August 6, 2010 London, England - Yesterday on August 5, 2010, the latest batch of British UFO files were released from the U. K. National Archives. One of the files entitled DEFE 24/2013/1 (PDF, 37.9 Mb) in Archives list below contains August to October 1999 correspondence between a “qualified scientist, specializing in physics and astronomy” to the U. K. Ministers Correspondence Unit in London, England, about his grandfather, whom he describes “serving as a personal bodyguard to the Prime Minister,” Winston Churchill. The following letters from the scientist give more details about an alleged conversation of alarm between PM Churchill and American General Dwight D.

— “The light pulses are separated by exactly the same time, like turning a flashlight on and off, and the time separation is exactly the same — billions of times a second.”
- Ermanno Borra, Ph.D., Prof. of Physics, Univ. of Laval, Quebec City, Canada, with Graduate Student Eric Trottier
— “The one in 10,000 objects with unusual spectra seen by Borra and Trottier are certainly worthy of additional study.”

January 27, 2017 Eros, Windhoek, Namibia- Along with the depressing headlines in December 2016 about the rapid decline of cheetahs came more headlines that giraffes have lost nearly half their population in just the last 30 years and are now also facing the risk of extinction this century.
We have all been hearing about Earth being in a 6th mass extinction because of human impact on once-natural habitats that are being developed for farms or houses or other human needs. The International Union for the Conservation of Nature, the IUCN, reported in early December 2016 that the number of species now on its Red List totals more than 85,000, with more than 24,000 at risk of extinction — including the world's tallest animal, the giraffe.

“All we can say for cheetah is they're now confined to only 9% of their historical range. And if you look at Asia, it's down to 2%.”
- Sarah Durant, Ph.D., Sr. Research Fellow, Zoological Society
of London and Scientist, Wildlife Conservation Society, London, and Namibia, Africa.
Cheetahs are the fastest animals on Earth and can reach 75 mph in runs after gazelles and impala, their food in the balance of Nature.Cheetah mother and her three cubs. Lions and hyenas kill cheetah cubs for food. Humans capture cubs to sell as pets that will usually die in captivity. In the 1900s, cheetah roamed over all of Africa. Today their original habitat has been cut down to only 9% of what it was. Only 7,000 cheetahs are left on Earth. Image prehistoricpark.
January 27, 2017 Namibia, Africa - I was stunned by The New York Times and National Geographic headlines in late December 2016 warning that “Cheetahs Are Dangerously Close to Extinction.” I remember a day in September 1985, after I had completed production on a documentary film in Ethiopia about child survival for UNICEF. My cameraman invited me to travel to his home in Nairobi, Kenya, and then visit the Maasai Mara National Reserve, a large game park in Kenya near the Serengeti National Park of Tanzania.

“We do not know what it was, but we do know what it was not.”
- Gen. Ricardo Bermúdez, Director, CEFAA,
Committee for the Study of Aerial Phenomena, Santiago de Chile
January 9, 2017 Santiago de Chile - The Chilean government's Committee for the Study of Aerial Phenomena (CEFAA) in Santiago de Chile has released unclassified videotape (never classified, but took two years to release) of a naval helicopter carrying out a routine daylight coastal patrol on November 11, 2014, when the camera operator noticed an unidentified flying object ahead. See Websites below for full video. The first appearance of the UFO was as two dark spheres joined together that were was flying horizontally and at a steady speed similar to that of the naval helicopter.

December 21, 2016 Whitby, North Yorkshire, England - A month ago in a November 24, 2016, Earthfiles and COAST radio broadcast, I interviewed a 50-year-old Staten Island, New York, resident, who asked me to call him "Steve Bishop." He told me about his father's U. S. Air Force job from World War II on through the 1970s to retrieve dead non-humans at crash sites from Roswell and beyond. Paralleling his father's work were Steve's childhood abductions by a cream-colored, tall insectoid being that looked like a praying mantis with huge dark eyes. Steve tried to tell his mom and dad about the large praying mantis coming into his bedroom with small Grey beings, but his father didn't want to talk about any of it and would get angry at his young son, Steve, for any mention of the strange beings. Steve and I talked about whether his father knew there was a link between the praying mantis interactions and abductions of Steve and the father's job of retrieving dead E. T. bodies from crashes.

“He (Other Universe Voice) told me that they were trying to understand their place within their universe and that what they had discovered is that they were inside of someone else’s universe just like we were inside of theirs.”
— Jerry Wills, Contactee Experiencer, Phoenix, AZ
December 21, 2016 Phoenix, Arizona - In 2007 at a conference in Phoenix, Arizona, I met Jerry and Kathy Wills, who had been leading research expeditions to the mysterious carved door in a solid rock wall at Lake Titicaca in southern Peru near the Bolivian border. The local natives who speak the Aymara language call it Aramu Muru, “Gateway of the Gods.”
[ Editor's Note: Aymara is an ancient language spoken by the Aymara people of the Andes. It is one of only a handful of Native American languages with over one million speakers. Aymara, along with Quechua and Spanish, is an official language of Bolivia.]
The door shape carved in the solid rock wall known as Aramu Muru at its widest and highest is 23 feet. The location is on the southwestern edge of Lake Titicaca, Peru, near the Bolivian border. The local native Indians say it is “Puerta de Hayu Marca," a gateway to the lands of the Gods and immortal life. Sometimes those who have gone through the doorway return with their “gods to inspect all lands in the kingdom” through the Aramu Muru door. Image by Ancient-Wisdom.com.
