Mystery UFO halo over Moscow

THIS glowing halo in clouds over Moscow looks like an Independence Day style alien attack.
The astonishing ring was spotted over the city and captured on video by stunned locals.
It has been described as a "true mystery" by a UFO expert.
Scores of supernatural enthusiasts have been gripped by the astonishing footage and speculated it could be an ALIEN MOTHERSHIP.
The sighting in the clouds is reminiscent of scenes from the 1996 Hollywood blockbuster Independence Day.
Aliens tried destroy the earth massive using circular ships to zap the planet powerful mega lasers.
Nick Pope, a former UFO analyst for the Ministry of Defence, examined the remarkable footage.
Theories
He said: "I've never seen anything like this. It's a true mystery.
"Whatever it is, it's one of the most beautiful and spectacular things I've ever seen.
"Speculation is at fever pitch on the internet."
"This is being discussed on forums, blogs and email lists all around the world. Some people say it's a bizarre meteorological effect.
"Theories range from it being an alien mothership, proof of Russian weather modification technology - a weather weapon - or even a sign of the end of the world.
The video has appeared on YouTube and been viewed more than 100,000 times.
The bizarre light was spotted last Wednesday.
But meteorologists rejected theories of the supernatural calling it an optical effect.
The Moscow's weather bureau said several weather fronts had passed through Moscow as the sun shined from the west to cause the effect.
A spokesman for the bureau said: "This is purely an optical effect, although it does look impressive.
"If you look closer, you can see sun rays coming through that cloud. Most likely, the sun was setting when the video was being made."
Honey, will you marry... Oh. Never mind...

It is the one moment every man wants to get right -- and which London floor-fitter Lefkos Hajji could hardly have got more wrong.
The luckless 28 year-old's dreams of giving his sweetheart, Leanne, 26, the ultimate proposal have literally vanished into thin air.
Hajji, of Hackney, east London, had concealed a $12,000 engagement ring inside a helium balloon. The idea was that she would pop the balloon as he popped the question.
But as he left the shop, a gust of wind pulled the balloon from his hand and he watched the ring -- and quite possibly the affections of his girlfriend -- sailing away over the rooftops.
"I couldn't believe it," he told The Sun newspaper.
"I just watched as it went further and further into the air.
"I felt like such a plonker. It cost a fortune and I knew my girlfriend would kill me."
Hajji spent two hours in his car trying to chase and find the balloon, without success.
"I thought I would give Leanne a pin so I could literally pop the question," he said.
"But I had to tell her the story -- she went absolutely mad. Now she is refusing to speak to me until I get her a new ring."
He is hoping the ring will still turn up.
"It would be amazing if someone found it," he added.

Personal Comment:
Haha, Poor guy! Not only did he lost the $12,000 ring and blew his chance to propose, but his girlfriend also got mad at him...^_^;; When I first heard this news, I can't help but laugh.. But then, the guy's situation isn't something to be laugh about. I mean, come on, just what would you feel if you lost a large amount of ring? I mean, $12, 000 is $12, 000.. I'll definitely be frustrated and cry who knows for how long, if that ever happens to me (I meant, losing a $12, 000 value)... Hopefully, he would still be able to find the ring, although the chances are very slim. But best of luck to that guy!(^_^)

Can you see both the duck and the bunny in this ambiguous drawing? The duck's bill is the bunny's ears. This was first used by a psychologist named Joseph Jastrow in the early 1900s.

Can you see both the young woman and the old woman in this classic optical illusion? If you need some help, the eye of the old woman is the ear of the young woman. The old woman's mouth is the young woman's necklace.
P.S. It really took me a while to notice this one. I even had to ask my brother how did he find out....LoL

Does this look like a spiral? It's actually a bunch of concentric circles. Use your mouse to trace one circle and you will see that you come back to where you started instead of spiraling into the center.
