About this deal

But you cannot avoid the conclusion that behind all this, people in private industry, and in collusion with shady figures within world governments, have hidden groundbreaking secrets from humanity, likely motivated by greed and power, and it seems likely now, fear of retribution. There are some inaccuracies. At one stage it is stated that "A 15-metre circumference is an 11-metre diameter." Actually 15m circumference is less than 5 m diameter. He also offers an "estimated" speed of 104,895 mph for a UAP, believing, as many non-scientists do, that you can convince by the accuracy of your numbers, without realising that this undermines the whole concept of an "estimate". In The New Bill James Historical Baseball Abstract, writing about the deadball-era star Hal Chase, Bill James asks: I have a policy,' he told the officers. They were calling him Jimmy. 'Can I call you Jimmy?' they said. 'What do you mean by a policy?' 'Well, I have a policy that I will pass this to my people and my people are big important people and we will be able to put time in the Old Bailey and you will be in the Old Bailey and these people will be in the Old Bailey.'" It worked. The investigation was dropped.

Spending so much time in Savile’s company was like being in a hall of mirrors. I was never quite sure of where I stood or what I believed. The rumours were so persistent, and he was so brazen about the “fun” he’d had with youngsters during his years as a pied piper for the nascent pop generation, a fixer of dreams and a latter-day saint, and yet he had never been exposed. The book describes Kaufman, a small, quiet Texas town where everyone knows each other, as being thrown into chaos when a county assistant district attorney is killed in broad daylight, then shortly after the district attorney and his wife are murdered as well. [3] Every horrible thing that happened to her was when she was 19; and everything that happened in her past, led to how she'd respond to her kidnapper and rapist. Just like me she clearly has a narcissistic mother but hers was definitely worse!! I feel weird rating somebody's true story, so don't take what I've given it to mean anything. It is what it is: a true account of an ordeal. You know what you're getting going into this book, so take care when reading.TW: Rape, miscarriage, sexual abuse, physical/verbal abuse, alcohol abuse, suicidal thoughts/ideation, pregnancy after rape UFOs — or UAPs (unidentified aerial phenomena) as they are called now — have been a subject so deeply mired in taboo and ridicule for so many decades that the default setting for science academia and the media has been to dismiss all serious discussion on the mistaken presumption there is nothing to see here. Especially since he's one of the first celebrities, as we know them now. He was somebody who said: 'I can't sing, I can't dance, I don't tell jokes – what do I do?' He was famous for being famous. But he came out of an era in which this sort of fame was a new phenomenon. That morphed into the 70s and 80s, when celebrity culture solidified and cemented to the point that when people might have been thinking, 'Hold a second, that's a bit dodgy', he was untouchable." Wife of convicted Kaufman County killer sentenced to 40 years in prison". Dallas News. July 29, 2018.

His writing here details a chronological account of UFOs, aka UAPs. Some of what he covers here includes:

Ross dives into the world of UFO/UAP's as a serious, award winning investigative journalist. I would have to say, this is the best book on the subject I've had the pleasure of reading, more so, as this come s from the point of view of a serious journalist who covers multiple cases of the phenomenon, as well as interviewing countless members of the military and intelligence sectors. He covers the recent history over the last few years, including tom Delong's role in forming to the Stars and the key players involved with this.

I fear another cover-up is inevitable. I am astonished – well, I'm not astonished, I'm a Hillsborough survivor so I'm never particularly astonished by cover-ups. One hundred and fourteen files go missing implicating supposedly some prominent figures within the political establishment. The circles moving out from that will be considerable." Davies had first encountered Savile at the age of nine, in the audience of the BBC's dream-making show. "Like every other child in the studio audience that evening, I had gone expecting to witness magic," he reflected in a piece for the Guardian. "What I left with was an unwanted insight into the unvarnished reality of pre-recorded television, and a strange ambivalence about the show's host." I can't speak to the updated edition, but the version I read gripped me from the prologue, relating how a group including 2 Australian police officers driving home from a party on a military base were buzzed by a UFO (UAP)This book is both chilling (it’s comprehensive - what feels like an exhaustive chronology of Saville’s life and his crimes even though it clearly can’t capture the full range of his offences over decades) and also slightly unfulfilling. You go through it feeling increasing disbelief that he managed to get away with it all in spite of his behaviour being so monstrous and so fundamentally visible - helped by the author clearly having been on an extended mission to break through the facade while Saville was alive. Another HIWTYL tactic is to claim that UFOs used mimicry so that they sometimes appear to be meteors, stars, or aircraft. Presumably the author believes that if it looks like a helicopter and moves like a helicopter it's a UFO masquerading as a helicopter. Davies confesses in the book that, for a long time – before the truth about Savile came out, while he was still obsessed with his dark side but didn't know what it was – he wondered if Savile had murdered someone. But then, given the nature of his transgressions, including the latest from the NHS inquiry at Leeds infirmary, which found allegations of necrophilia, and the instances of violence cited in the book, it's hard to know what he would stop at.

What makes a good book, I think, is that is is written so well that it is hard to put the book down. I had to stop myself midway through, (which was extremely difficult as I did not want to put the book down, I was glued to it) and take a break to compose myself while reading this, because her story is so brutal, so unfair. Nobody should have to live through this, but she did. There is not a day that passes where I don’t wonder why I chose Savile. Of all the people to become obsessed with, to follow and agonise over, why did it have to be him? It is a question that provides no answer. The only consolation I can find is that my instincts were right.The book starts with a warning (of sorts) from her and what felt like to me, an apology. I just want to let her and everyone else who had this happen to, know that they have nothing to apologize for.
