... from the Nimrod of Assurnazirpal (884-860)...." A porcelain head of a woman "seems to [be] Greek, not only in her features but also in the way in which her hair is gathered up at the back in a net, just as on the sixth century vases of this shape." Phoenician glass was found next to an amulet stamped with the cartouche of Tutankhamen. Murray was baffled. He dared not challenge the Egyptologists, which left only the theory that "during a lapse of seven centuries little artistic progress or decline had been effected." The Dark Age also cast its shadow over the excavations at Tiryns, a fortified city ...
272. Galactic Domains, G Fluctuations and Geomagnetic Reversals [Journals] [Catastrophist Geology]
... about the time of a reversal and new species appeared shortly afterwards. ' The magnetic field reversal of itself is hardly likely to explain such an event. According to the Tarling data the last geomagnetic field reversal was about 700,000 years ago. A study of the deep-sea floor of the Indian Ocean is reported to reveal tiny metallic and glass beads which, it was said (Wright, 1972): .. . were fragments of some great cosmic catastrophe that caused molten articles to splash into the atmosphere some 700,000 years ago. The shower of debris coincided wilt) the last reversal of the earth's magnetic field. ' As the Earth crosses a domain boundary in ...
273. James Hutton: A Non-inductive, Theological Catastrophist [Journals] [Velikovskian]
... extraterrestrial impact events with comets, asteroids and meteorites; but they fail to admit the enormous, global, geological changes found on the Earth, the Moon, Mars and Venus that could never have been created by such small bodies. Like the uniformitarians of last century and much of this century, they see the global catastrophic phenomena through astronomical-uniformitarian-colore glasses. JAMES HUTTON The great founder of seeing the Earth through a uniformitarian filter is James Hutton. However, the evidence below will show that his view is a historical myth. The real founder of gradualism was Charles Lyell, who denied catastrophism as, itself, a religious-geological myth. One of the great concepts of the Hutton legend is ...
... this ongoing volcanism and many craters are produced. Michael Zeihk in Astronomy: The Evolving Universe, (NY 1985) p. 185 describes these craters: "Io's volcanoes have a different shape from those found on the Earth, Venus and Mars. Few appear as cones or shields. They resemble collapsed volcanic craters." Billy P. Glass in Introduction to Planetary Geology, (Cambridge, England 1982), p. 363 writes that on lo, "There appears to be a complete absence of impact craters at least down to 5-10 km in diameter... "The surface is dominated by volcanic features... More than 100 caldera-like depressions up to 200 km ...
275. Thundergods and Thunderbolts [Journals] [Aeon]
... swastika-like form appeared during a particular phase of the polar configuration, the rotation of the four undulating streamers producing the appearance of a fiery swirl centered on the sun. Citing experiments by the physicist C.J . Ransom, Cardona suggested a possible physical basis for the memorable celestial forms. Ransom obtained his results when ionized gases created in a glass cylinder were subjected to a magnetic squeeze: "As the field frequency and intensity was increased the plasma began to rotate. At one point, if the field was held constant, a three-armed figure appeared, seemingly radiating from the center of the plasma. Then, if the frequency were increased linearly this figure commenced to rotate at an ...
276. Let There Be Darkness: An Archetypal Analysis of Adolf Hitler and the Third Reich [Journals] [Aeon]
... have argued that Hitler was nothing in himself, only a symbol of the restless ambition of the German nation to dominate Europe; a creature flung to the top by the tides of revolutionary change, or the embodiment of the collective unconscious of a people obsessed with violence and death." (2 ) The truth, seen only through a glass darkly, lies somewhere between the two schools of thought with a definite bias towards the former viewpoint. Hitler's role and his centrality were pivotal for the events that unfolded during the short-lived Third Reich, though it must be admitted that German culture provided fertile ground for its Führer. "In order to understand Hitler's demonic personality in terms of ...

... NASA's solar system and exploration office. (6 )Shklovskii and Sagan, op. cit., p. 324. (7 )Charles Ginenthal, Carl Sagan and Immanuel Velikovsky (Tempe, Ariz., 1995) p. 306 (privately published, 1990) p. 237. Ginenthal writes, "According to Billy P. Glass in Introduction to Planetary Geology (New York, 1982), p. 312, `The warmest part of the atmosphere (of Venus) visible to the Pioneer Venus orbiter is the North Polar region. ' Therefore, hot clouds from the equator will not travel to the hotter poles .. .. " (8 )Shklovskii ...
278. The Saturn Thesis (Part 3) [Journals] [Aeon]
... also have been subject to electrical scarring. I predict that when closeups of Europa are available in December, the so-called "cracks" in the ice will be found to be electric discharge channels with the raised levees on either side and the dark-light-dark cross section caused by discharge modification of the excavated material. (In the manner of the green glass beads formed from the melted soil excavated by an electric discharge along the lunar rilles.) The "cracks" on Europa show no lateral displacement where they intersect, which would be expected if they were due to shifting ice. Discharge channels will throw material from the younger channel into the older where they intersect. Cracks should not show ...
279. Is the Universe Finite? [Journals] [Aeon]
... , A Brief History of Time: From the Big Bang to Black Holes, Bantam Books: New York (1988) 7. Some references credit the French physicist Armand Hippolyte Louis Fizeau with the discovery, who calculated the velocity of light at some 190,000 mps in 1849, while his contemporary, who pioneered in the development of glass mirrors for telescopes, Jean Bernard Léon Foucault- of Foucault Pendulum fame- refined the velocity of light to within one percent in 1862. Fizeau is better known for his 1848 characterization of the Doppler-Fizeau effect, by which name it is known as the electromagnetic change in frequency due to the relative motion of the source or observer, such ...
