Secret underground bases have been a topic of debate for a long time. In fact, some people have even seen flying saucers take off from these bases. They may have been made by the Space Force, according to some. Others include the Department of Defense (British Army), and the Soviet Union. The question is: What are these underground facilities like?
Department of Defense
The U.S. Department of Defense built underground bases to defend the country from alien invasions decades ago. The Military Office of the White House supported the military by setting up a multimillion-dollar secret fund to create 75 of these facilities. It also included shelters for the President, his family, and other members of the presidential family in the event of war. The money was channeled through MJ-12, a secret organization that paid contractors to construct top-secret bases for military and underground alien bases. Ultimately, the president's fund paid contractors to construct these bases and shelters.
British Army
British soldiers kept secret underground bases in hiding during WWII for two reasons. First, to keep out of Nazis radar. Second, to hide from their enemies. These secret bases were built by Royal Engineers or units. Their entrances were disguised and contained bunks, Elsan toilets and enough supplies to survive a fortnight. The men were also protected by the underground bases as they swept by.
Libya
BBC has obtained access to the compound located below Col Muammar Gaddafi, ex-leader of Libya. It is home to communication equipment, food supplies, water, weapons, and other essentials. It's the ultimate power source, with all the necessary tools to run a nation.

What is the most surprising fact about your body?
Two eyes, two ears, 2 nostrils, 4 limbs, 1 nose, 1 penis and one mouth are all there. Yes, more than 50 parts to our bodies. But one thing is missing. A heart.
A heart is a pump, which circulates blood throughout our bodies. The blood flows through the veins and arteries to carry oxygen and nutrients to the cells.
The heart pumps about 5 liters blood per minute. This is equivalent of an adult drinking 2 to 3 cups of coffee each day.
The heart is constantly pumping blood, 24 hours a week, 365 day a year. While sleeping, your heart beats close to 100 times per minute.
Because of the color and texture of their skin, you can tell if someone is healthy or sick. If you examine the skin closely, you will see tiny blood vessels called capillaries. These small vessels carry blood from the large blood vessel in the skin back towards the heart. The skin turns purple or blue when there is a blockage in blood flow.
People with sickle cells lack red blood cell. Their blood becomes very sticky and hardened, leading to serious illness.
Bandages are used to stop bleeding after you have cut yourself. For wounds to heal properly, blood must flow. Doctors insert a needle into the injured area through the skin. This allows blood drainage from the injury area.
Doctors may also insert catheters (catheters), in an artery to treat a blood clot. This keeps the patient occupied until the clot is broken down naturally.
Is there a Hollywood blacklist of actors?
There is a Hollywood blacklist.
But, the list has not been made public. As far as we know, the names aren't even known. It matters because of this.
The reason behind the secrecy was that blacklisted directors and actors wouldn't be able find work. They would go out of business which would mean that studios would lose their money. Which means they'd cut back on spending money on movies. That would reduce the opportunities for blacklisted filmmakers. This could lead to them going bankrupt.
This could eventually lead to more victims.
A contract may be required to agree to not speak against employers if someone attempts to make an Oscar winning movie. Producers and directors who want to be nominated are subject to the same restrictions.
This is why you'll hear about directors being pressured by producers to take scenes out of their films. Directors might threaten to leave projects that don't reflect their vision.
This is why Hollywood has created a blacklist. If you speak negatively about your employer, you will likely be fired. That's bad for everyone.
Many people have been wrongly accused. It's been a struggle to get their names cleared.
We must stop this from happening again. It is essential that everyone has the freedom to express their opinions.
Also, we must take down the Hollywood blacklist.
Ever wonder how much trash gets produced each day around the world?
The United Nations estimates that the average person generates more than 2.5 pounds of waste each day. This adds up to over 25 million pounds of garbage annually!
Most of this trash ends up in landfill dumps or incinerators.But what happens when those dumpsters get full? The majority of this rubbish is sent out of the country. It is then dumped in other countries, where it pollutes their ecosystems.But now, thanks to the work of one man, we know exactly where all this trash goes. His name is Mike Sexton. He runs Waste Watchers, a company that monitors the movements of trucks carrying trash all across North America. He then reports back to us on what happens next.
Sexton claims he is very satisfied with his job. CNN spoke with Sexton that they have a lot fun. "We see big rigs coming through town and we'll follow them. "Sexton started following truck drivers nearly 20 years ago.
He stated that he fell in love with the product.
His favorite story involved a driver who pulled off at an abandoned gas station near Los Angeles. Sexton said that the man was searching for a place to store his stuff. "He drove down the road to see this building. He pulled over and went in. "There were two large roll-off containers full of stuff. The man got everything out of the truck and began filling it up again. "The man looked around the area and decided to unload all of it. There were a bunch of old tires, rags, furniture, mattresses, boxes, bottles, cans, and whatever else. "It was just an absolute mess. It had been cleaned up before he arrived. There was not a single piece of trash.
Why did this happen? The answer is that this location was once part of a recycling facility. People who knew about it would drive to this location to recycle their garbage. Sexton said that people would bring their household items to the building and then leave empty containers behind.
This can happen hundreds of times a week. It could happen hundreds of thousands of times a week. The truck eventually stops running because it has become so jammed with junk. The truck eventually stops running and the owner decides that it is time to get rid of the vehicle.
However, trash is not the only problem on our planet.
These tiny plastic particles make up the majority of the particles. Some end up in incinerators or landfills. Others end up in rivers, oceans or the stomachss of fish.
Experts say if nothing changes, we could soon face a global food shortage. One expert said, "If we keep going as we are going, we're never going to make it," but most people don’t seem concerned.

Hollywood scandals that shocked all of the world
There's nothing more shocking than watching someone become famous for the wrong reasons. It's even more frightening to see them fall from grace.
It is amazing to see how an industry handles its mistakes. We've all heard about celebrities who took too much alcohol and drugs. Some even died young because of it.
The worst part about this is that these same stars come out with their problems and are ridiculed by everyone. We found ourselves in that situation last week.
Heath Ledger, after a long and successful professional career, finally gave in to his demons. He overdosed on prescription pills, and after a brief battle with death, he passed away.
His friends and family struggled to accept the loss of his son, while the media blasted him openly.
Heath was once considered to be one of today's most talented actors. Two Academy Awards nominations went to Heath for his performance on Brokeback Mountain.
Heath not only acted, but also wrote and directed films including A Knight's Tale. Monster's Ball. Iron Man.
Hollywood loved Heath, however he soon grew too big for his good looks. He started taking drugs and drinking heavily. He was eventually able to get clean and went to rehab.
Now that he was sober, it was time to make amends. He made a documentary called "Room 237," that chronicled the making and release of The Shining. It was supposed that it would be released this year but it won't make its debut in theaters until next.
Every time Heath tried to get back into Hollywood, something happened. He was actually arrested twice for drug charges.
We don't believe Heath should have been allowed to go back into the entertainment industry. However, it would be nice if he could get some help before things spiral out of control.
We hope Heath’s story can be an example to other people who believe they can still have it all.
