The following pages are an anthology of mysterious events that are based on actual accounts, which have been thoroughly researched in order to avoid any inadvertent errors or discrepancies. Far too often the media and other supposedly reliable news sources have only covered the surface of many breaking news events, which have often left the reader and viewer questioning the crucial facts surrounding these events. Therefore, the pages of this anthology, will provide you the reader and viewer with just that, the facts, which heretofore were often vague and unexplained. Throughout the course of this book, you will observe the bizarre, ironic, and mysterious occurrences of several unexplained happenings. Discover the true-life story of Edgar Cayce, a simple farm boy from Kentucky, who was proclaimed by many to have been the greatest psychic the world has ever known. Step into the mind of a deranged serial killer, a heartless predator who deliberately fed the mutilated body parts of one of his innocent victim’s to unsuspecting family members and friends. A man who could easily be mistaken for Hannibal Lecter named, “Nathaniel Bar- Jonah.” Also examine the unexplained circumstances surrounding the failed assassination attempt of Pope John Paul II. You will learn about the tragic story of two elderly brothers who literally buried themselves alive in a dilapidated brownstone mansion, once located in Harlem, New York, infamously known to many as the “Hermits of Harlem.” You will also learn of an astonishing, U.S. documented face- to- face encounter with extraterrestrial beings at the Sutton farmhouse in Western Kentucky, which was officially investigated under the United States Air Force’s secret classified code name, “Project BlueSample Book.” If your interest has yet to have been truly captured, you will surely become mesmerized by the spin tingling story of legendary blues guitarist Robert Johnson and the mysterious curse of the infamous twenty-seven club in, “A pact with the Devil.” Could the untimely deaths of several renowned music artists such as Janis Joplin, Jimi Hendrix, Kurt Cobain and Amy Wine house, all of whom died at the age of twenty-seven share a common bond with Johnson’s mythological deal with the devil at the cross-roads? Then discover the intriguing dramatic real-life story of Doctor Howard Storm, a former atheist, who upon his death, miraculously returned to the land of the living to tell us what truly awaits us on the other side. Another chapter includes the testimonies of four Japanese survivors Free of the horrific bombing of Hiroshima. Take a glimpse into the aftermath of it’s heart-wrenching “Circle of Death.” Also turn back the pages of time and bear witness to an era within American history when our nation was deeply engaged in the civil rights struggle and learn about the unbelievable hate crime of Sergeant Isaac Woodard, a recently discharged U.S. Army Veteran who was deliberately blinded by local law enforcement officials, in 1946. So, as you will discover, much of reality lies beneath the surface of news reports and our usual perception of reality. These are just a few of the many unexplained mysteries that you will encounter within the pages of The Mysterious Chronicles of the Unexplained. Sample Free Chapter 1 Death in the House of Windsor Conspiracy theories surrounding the Mysterious and sudden tragic deaths of the “Princess of Wales” Princess Diana and her devoted companion Dodi Al Fayed. Location: The Pont del’ Alma tunnel in central Paris, France. Accident or an Elaborate Conspiracy? uckingham Palace…the Changing of the Guards…the River Thames…the Clock BTower of London…Scotland Yard… and the Queen with the Royal Family. You might ask yourself what do all of these iconic people and historic landmarks have in common? All are iconic symbols signifying one of the mightiest countries in the world, Great Britain. Great Britain is a place where many an urban legend has remained shrouded in mystery. And one particular mystery that still haunts this great land up until this very day is the mysterious death of Princess Diana. On the Sunday Morning of September 1, of 1997, the world would awaken to learn of the shocking deaths of Princess Diana and her beloved friend Dodi Fayed, seemingly at the hands of the paparazzi From the moment the Prince of Wales (Prince Charles) first showed an interest in Lady Diana Spencer and proposed marriage in 1981, the European media, and paparazzi developed a growing obsession to pursue and photograph the future Queen of England’s every movement. An obsession which would continue for the next seventeen years. However, soon after the births of the couple’s two sons, who would eventually become heirs to the British throne, and after fifteen years of marriage with allegations of maritalSample infidelities as early as 1990, Prince Charles and Lady Diana announced their legal separation, which eventually led to divorce in February of 1996. Let’s take a look at some of the suspicious circumstances that led up to the horrible automobile accident in 1997. In this chapter, we will also look at two of the best known conspiracy theories that were fueled by an assortment of alleged allegations that would question those theories. The Automobile Accident Upon returning from a holiday getaway, the Princess of Wales, Diana, who was accompanied by her newly acquainted companion, Dodi Fayed, made a brief stop in Paris, to enjoy two days’ rest while en route to London. From the moment the lovers’ jet firstFree touched the ground, they were followed by the press. None-the-less, the two continued on their way and stopped at a Paris town house that was owned by Dodi’s father, Mohamed Al-Fayed, before finally reaching his father’s private villa. While there the couple would change into casual clothing, rest at ease, and spend the entire weekend intimately. Later on during the evening, their limo driver and bodyguard escorted the couple to the magnificent Avenue of Champs-Elysées, where the two would stroll through this lavish district and window-shop unrecognized. Like normal tourists, the wealthy couple, one being a Royal heir to the throne and the other of Muslim decent, freely mingled amongst the crowds while gathering no particular attention. Next, the couple decided to have dinner at the Ritz hotel, which also belonged to Dodi’s father, Mohamed Al Fayed. Once inside the Ritz hotel, the two refreshed themselves in a roomy suite, which was always reserved for Dodi on any occasion, and proceeded down-stairs to dine. Although the couple wasn’t very hungry, they ordered a small portion of fish with a little white wine and hot coffee. But, for some unclear reason, the pair suddenly became nervous and wanted to immediately drive back to his father’s private villa. Did the couple realize that they were being followed? No one clearly knows, but without question the paparazzi were sure to follow. (A single photograph could turn into thousands of dollars.) So, with this being the case, Dodi Fayed organized counter tactics with the hotel’s staff and ordered a limousine chauffeur to drive his vehicle a few kilometers and return back to the hotel. And quite certainly the motorcade of photographers trailed on their motorbikes. But, through intuition, the news reporters felt something was a fowl and returned to the hotel’s courtyard to lay in wait. At approximately twenty minutes after midnight, the couple had decided to make a swift exit out the back entrance of the Hotel Ritz and jumped into a second awaiting Mercedes 600 limousine, which was driven by the head of security at the hotel, a man by the name of Henri Paul.

  • Diana, Princess of Wales
    Diana, Princess of Wales The Lady Diana Frances Spencer (Diana Frances Mountbatten- Windsor, née Spencer) (1 July 1961–31 August 1997) was the first wife of Charles, Prince of Wales. From her marriage in 1981 to her divorce in 1996 she was styled Her Royal Highness The Princess of Wales. After her divorce in 1996, Diana ceased to be a Royal Highness and The Princess of Wales and instead was styled Diana, Princess of Wales. She was often called Princess Diana by the media and the public, but this was incorrect both during and after her marriage, as she was only ever a Princess by marriage, not by birth.' An iconic presence on the world- stage, Diana, Princess of Wales was noted for her pioneering charity work. Yet her philanthropic endeavours were overshadowed by her scandal-plagued marriage to Prince Charles. Her bitter accusations via friends and biographers of adultery, mental cruelty and emotional distress visited upon her riveted the world for much of the 1990s, spawning books, magazine articles and television movies. From the time of her engagement to the Prince of Wales in 1981 until her death in a car accident in 1997, the Princess was arguably the most famous woman in the world, the pre-eminent female celebrity of her generation: a fashion icon, an image of feminine beauty, admired and emulated for her high-profile involvement in AIDS issues and the international campaign against landmines. During her lifetime, she was often referred to as the most photographed person in the world. To her admirers, The Princess of Wales was a role model — after her death, there were even calls for her to be nominated for sainthood — while her detractors saw her life as a cautionary tale of how an obsession with publicity can ultimately destroy an individual.

    WW | xxxxxxxx THIS STORY ALWAYS HAD everything, didn’t it? The blushing young innocent who transformed herself into the most adored – and most hunted – woman in the world. The Cinderella who found her Prince Charming – or thought she did – and then entered the palace via the golden carriage. The fairytale but fraudulent wedding of the century, followed by that grim parable of death in the Paris tunnel. The romance, the adultery, the royal intrigue, the eternal, hopeless quest for love, the media’s crazed preoccupation and pursuit. TIn her lifetime, Diana was the People’s Princess who, in death, became the Sleeping Beauty and the Lady of the Lake. She was the stuff that myths are made of and, like her or not, believe it or not, hers was a tale of epic, monumental proportions, that mesmerised the world for 16 years – from the time she walked down the aisle in St Paul’s Cathedral to the time of her funeral in Westiminster Abbey, witnessed by, what was it, a quarter of the world’s population? permafrost and the duke’s Teutonic coldness Think of Marilyn Monroe, Princess Grace, to Diana’s single-minded pursuit of Prince Greta Garbo, Jackie Onassis, perhaps even Charles and her elder son, William’s, interest Mother Theresa, and roll them into one in becoming governor-general of Australia. iconic figure, and you might approach the The Diana Spencer that emerges from fame, the celebrity of Diana Spencer, the pages of Tina Brown’s The Diana Celebrated editor Tina Princess of Wales.

  • Remembering Princess Diana with CCTV
    humanities Article Surveillance and Social Memory: Remembering Princess Diana with CCTV Nicole Falkenhayner English Seminar, Albert-Ludwigs-University Freiburg, Rempartstr. 15, Freiburg 79085, Germany; [email protected] Academic Editor: Peta Tait Received: 30 May 2016; Accepted: 17 August 2016; Published: 1 September 2016 Abstract: Since the 1990s, surveillance camera images have experienced a function creep from their juridical uses into journalism and entertainment. In these contexts, the images have also become memory media. This article, for the first time, analyses CCTV images, meaning closed circuit surveillance camera images, as memory media and discusses the implications of our use of artefacts of control within a frame of mediated constructions of social memory. The article undertakes this work by analyzing remediations of the CCTV images of Diana Spencer and Dodi Al-Fayed in the Ritz Hotel in Paris on 30 August 1997 in television news and a documentary from 2007 and 2011, respectively. It is shown how social memory of Diana’s death is a contested site, in which the images play a specific role. Keywords: Surveillance; images; social memory; social emotion; experientiality; narration; mediatisation; Princess Diana 1. Introduction On the morning of 1 September 1997, the world woke up to the news of the death of Princess Diana and her recent lover, Dodi Al-Fayed, in a car crash in Paris. The death of Princess Diana had an enormous impact on the civil and emotional culture of the UK, making it a stable part of British, but also global, social memory [1]. The CCTV images, meaning closed circuit surveillance camera images, that were made by surveillance cameras in the Ritz Hotel were affect-affording in the narrations of Diana’s death.

Adrian Hernandez: Hi, this is Adrian Hernandez, and I'm one of the NIH Collaboratory Grand Rounds moderators, and today we're here with several people from Survivor Corps to reflect and discuss what they did recently to address patient experiences seeking medical care around COVID-19. So I'm here with Diana, Natalie, Nick, who will be reflecting on what they've had to do to address these issues. So welcome to our podcast, and let me start off first with Diana, can you just tell us a little bit of how things started? Diana Berrent: Yeah, so actually we are the largest patient advocacy movement in the world, but oddly enough, we did not start out as a patient advocacy movement. I was one of the first people in the New York area to get a positive diagnosis of COVID, and one of the first people in the country to come forward with my identity, in early March of 2020. I ended up having a pretty average case of COVID, what I call the Tylenol and Gatorade kind, I was never hospitalized, there's nothing dramatic about it.

  • Diana and Race: Romance and the Reconfiguration of the Nation1
    Diana and Race: Romance and the Reconfiguration of the Nation1 Mica Nava This article was published in Mourning Diana: Nation, Culture and the Performance of Grief, edited by Adrian Kear and Lynn Steinberg, London: Routledge (1999). A slightly modified version entitled ‘Princess Diana and Dodi Al Fayed: Romance, Race and the Reconfiguration of the Nation’ was included as Chapter 7 in Mica Nava’s Visceral Cosmopolitanism: Gender, Culture and the Normalisation of Difference, Oxford: Berg (2007) Introduction Every now and again there are cultural events which freeze frame the transformed and transformative elements of a historical period. Princess Diana’s death and the week which followed exposed to the world the lineaments of a new British nation which bore no resemblance to the conventional heritage images disseminated around the globe in travel posters, films and BBC dramas over the decades since world war two and the decline of empire. The lead role, it is true, still belonged to a princess, but the supporting cast – the metropolitan populace - was composed to a remarkable extent of the visibly-different dark-skinned children and grandchildren of Britain’s former colonies, bolstered by a cosmopolitan ragbag of migrant physiognomies from around the world. And more striking still: in this new scenario the lover of the golden haired princess was dark-skinned and from somewhere else as well. The public face of Britain was no longer white. This new picture of the nation, captured and played back on the endless hours of television footage, was transmitted not only to the world outside. It registered and was constitutive of a transformation in the domestic consciousness as well.
