Dec 11, 1924: Gwyneth Ericka Morgan, the artistic 29-year-old daughter of a Welsh peer, vanishes from the seedy Limehouse district of London. The aspiring sculptor is known to have an adventurous streak and associates with many bohemian types that her family dislikes. Morgan’s father, Lord Tredegar, will privately seek help from Scotland Yard before going public about the disappearance in January. Her body is fished out of the River Thames in May the following year. Rumors that she died in an opium den, the death concealed by the proprietors, are never proven.


Sad ending but the 'adventurous streak' reminded me of a few banners.


Dec 11, 1954: USS Forrestal (CVA-59) was launched. The Forrestal named after the first United States Secretary of Defense James Forrestal was the world's largest naval vessel at the time, and the first new U.S. carrier to be built with an angled flight deck, steam catapult, and an optical landing system. The Forrestal also was the first carrier designed to support jets.




Captain Claire Thompson OBE RN assumed command of HMS Queen Elizabeth on 10 December 2024, becoming the first female captain of a Royal Navy aircraft carrier. She previously commanded the frigate HMS Montrose and was awarded an OBE for leading the ship in several major drug and illegal arms interdictions.

He didn't fool Art Bell. Kreskin predicted a big UFO show, claimed he predicted 9/11 and Art calling him a terrorist and then banning him from Coast to Coast for life. LOL. Art Bell clip:

"Kreskin" www.kreskin.com "predicted" the Largest UFO sighting in a century ... he repeated this on the Art Bell show and backed it up with a $50,000 donation to charity if he was wrong. He narrowed it down to Thursday 6/6. That evening nothing happened and he subsequently went into damage control mode. This audio is of Art and "The less than amazing" Kreskin mixing it up. Kreskin sounds every bit the fool. Turns out it was all deception and Art bans him from the show.

Does the new Chinese police ball chasing down culprits remind you of anything from our distant viewing past?...


China’s sci-fi spherical Death Star-like robot cop uses AI, facial recognition to track criminals

...The question is whether Number Six could evade the Chinese rover. I have faith in Patrick McGoohan:

I suspect this may prove to be the understatement of the century...
