Five Israelis were wounded in the barrage, most by mortar shrapnel. The Israeli military hit back forcefully, striking approximately 30 Hamas military installations. This was the single largest attack by Gaza terrorists on Israel since the 2014 Gaza war.

Be home before nightfall... and pray for dawn!

Cindy and Lucy are eighteen and going away to college. As a ritual they must rid themselves of the dirt of their small home town (Allburg) by swimming in an abandoned church crypt. They jump in and begin talking about sex when Lucy's crucifix falls into the water and drifts down to land on Czakyr's (an ancient vampire) head, apparently waking him up. Some time onward, a school teacher from a nearby town, Mark, gets directed to Allburg to help Lucy and her grandmother, who are suspected to be in trouble. Lucy becomes the target of a town turned vampire because of her 'virgin blood'. Mark, Lucy and an old wino shack up in an abandoned building outside of town but eventually get lured back to Allburg by the locals. There, with a giant glowing cross mounted on the front of their van, they take on the town and battle Czakyr.

A common misbelief is that extraterrestrial species will have anything at all in common with us. From body styles to motives, value systems and morals.
Speculation based on assumptions means nothing.



I disagree with you on this point. They would have to have some similarities if they were to show up as visitors.

1) They would have to be a land-based lifeform. Fire is a requirement for metallurgy and that would be a necessity for any space travel.

2) Although they would not have to be mammalian, they still would need to have a similar appendage make-up for sensitive creativity (circuit boards, fine detailed work, etc). Pincers, tentacles or wings just won't get the job done.

3) Bipedal locomotion is almost a necessity, or at least a non-prone form of movement where the lifeform would have a natural upright position.

Now if we are the explorers to discover them, and they are not space-faring, NONE of these restrictions apply.

You might want to check your facts. William Carney was not the first person to receive the Medal of Honor. He didn't have it awarded until 1900 for action that he experienced in 1863...

Race had nothing to do with why he received the award...I don't know why that's such a qualifier for you.
