Daily 2 Cents: Two Years of Mystery...What Happened to Flight MH370? -- Hypnosis Changed Barney Hill’s UFO Abduction Memory -- Three Black Aliens


Two Years of Mystery...What Happened to Flight MH370?

The jet, bound for Beijing, took off from Kuala Lumpur International Airport shortly after midnight, at 12:41 a.m. local time.

About 26 minutes into the flight, at 1:07 a.m., the plane sent its final automated data transmission. Sometime between 1:07 and 1:37, when the next transmission was scheduled, the automated data system was shut off.

At 1:19 a.m. came the final radio transmission: “Goodnight , Malaysian three seven zero.”

Two minutes later, at 1:21 a.m., the jet’s transponder, which communicates location information, was also switched off.

Those two separate actions -- turning off the data transmission system and the transponder -- suggest that someone may have been alive and conscious inside the cockpit.

Bolstering this hypothesis is radar data, which shows that four minutes after the transponder shut off, the plane deviated from its planned route, doubling back on itself and flying back over Malaysia, then north along the Malacca Strait, until it eventually dropped off Malaysian radar.

According to rudimentary satellite data -- the only data available, since the data system and transponder had been shut off -- the aircraft continued flying for about six hours, until it likely ran out of fuel over the Indian Ocean at just after 8:19 a.m. Malaysia time.

Hypnosis Changed Barney Hill’s UFO Abduction Memory

Barney and Betty Hill are two of the most famous alleged UFO abductees in the history of the phenomenon. The story of the Hills begins on September 19, 1961, when they were driving through rural New Hampshire. At about 10:30 in the evening, they spotted what appeared to be a bright light in the sky.

The sighting led to a lurid story of an encounter with what seemed to be an alien spacecraft that took them on board to perform medical experiments before letting them go. Their story became a best-selling book in 1966 and a TV movie in 1975 and was an episode in the 1996 TV series “Dark Skies.”

Interestingly, the details of the story seemed to grow over time. According to a series of audio recordings, Barney Hill’s account changed and expanded after a series of hypnosis sessions.

In the first version, recorded on the first recording in the archive, Hill described how they spotted the light in the sky, at first thinking it was a star, and then a satellite, then a low-flying airplane. He remembers himself and his wife being chased into a field where they watched the light through binoculars.

The craft, as Hill described it, came close enough that he could see humanoid beings watching him and his wife through a window. Then, the Hills left the field in great haste and drove for 35 miles before beginning to talk about the incident. Mr. Hill remembers expressing the fear that they would be captured. Betty Hill later reported the incident to a local Air Force base once they arrived at their home in Portsmouth. The report was forwarded to Project Blue Book, and the couple was later interviewed by NIPAC. Read more at How Hypnosis Changed Barney Hill’s UFO Abduction Memory

Man Kills Wife For Selling His Elvis Tribute Concert Ticket

A husband has admitted murdering his wife during a row over a ticket to see an Elvis Presley tribute act. Paul Abbott, 56, appeared at Wolverhampton Crown Court on Monday where he pleaded guilty to the murder of Jacqueline Abbott, aged 54. She died shortly after being being found with serious head injuries, believed to have been inflicted with a hammer, at her house in Netherton, Dudley, West Midlands,on December 11.

Mr Abbott was arrested at the scene after officers were called at around 4.25pm. Detective Sgt Indi Basra, part of the homicide team at Harborne police station, confirmed that Mrs Abbott had been away for a few days and had returned home on December 11. He said: "She and her husband were due to attend a performance of an Elvis tribute band that evening but Mrs Abbott had sold his ticket on Ebay. An argument erupted and subsequently escalated."

Police received a call from worried neighbours, concerned about Mrs Abbott's husband fighting with one of their sons, Martyn, in the street outside their home. "We were told someone had died at the property" Detective Sgt Basra continued. "Police officers and paramedics attended the scene and got through to the back of the property where Mrs Abbott was found in the back garden area. She had extensive and severe head injuries." A hammer was recovered from the property and is believed to be the weapon used in the attack.

Mrs Abbott's body was formally identified by her son Martyn and she was pronounced dead at the scene. "Her husband, Paul Abbott admitted the offence and was charged with murder," Detective Sgt Basra said. A pathology report revealed that the cause of death was blunt force head injuries and that Mrs Abbott had not consumed any alcohol. The couple ran a fishing tackle shop called J & P Fishing Snooker Darts at the Enterprise Industrial Estate in Brierley Hill, with Mrs Abbott listed as company secretary, and Mr Abbott as director. Neighbours say the pair previously ran a snooker club in the borough. Abbott was remanded in custody and will be sentenced at a later date. - Dudley businessman admits killing wife in hammer attack

Three Black Aliens

I was in bed awake every night and could not sleep because of neighbors' loud sounds. I stared at a water tower located on Fuller and Leonard NE, Grand Rapids, MI. The object came at an extremely fast rate of speed. It was an eight foot capsule and it stopped in front of my neighbor's window 20 feet of away. It then turned to view my third floor window. It stayed for 4-5 mins. I stared at every detail on the capsule and saw three black aliens. I can remember every detail of the capsule and aliens. After 5 mins it then turned and took the same path back to the water tower.

I had seen them two nights before in the early evening. There had been a storm, and I saw them over a school yard. The capsule had come out of a small, gray cloud with pink on the bottom. They appeared for about 3 minutes. There was light blue in the middle of capsule.

I saw them again on September 1st at noon, looking to the N.E. sky. They did two circles around a huge white sky. This time the ship was flat and thin and they were much higher in the sky by the planes.

The last time I saw them was June 6 of 2015. I saw them at 2 am in the morning and they were as high as jets in the sky. At this time they were white in the inside. But the ship was still capsule in shape.

I felt terrified during the times I saw them, and I didn't know who to call or who to talk to about the event. It also happened so quickly that I was unable to get other evidence. But I am willing to take a lie detector test. - MUFON CMS
